Humans of New York photo goes viral because there is nothing better than a bitchy best friend

A Humans of New York photo is going viral right now, because no one can stop tagging their best friend once they see it. It sums up friendship pretty perfectly — in just two sentences.

It’s been shared almost 150,000 times in less than 24 hours/

“We don’t have any hobbies. But we do try to get together a few times a month to judge people and complain about things.”

Oh, hello — have we met? Because I think we’re soulmates.

All best friends throw shade when they’re together. All of them. That’s what best friends do: we understand each other. We say the shitty, judgy things we would never say in mixed company — and we laugh our asses off. It’s like therapy, only cheaper and meaner.

Where would we be without that friend who screenshots Jennifer’s Facebook status and sends it with an “LOL. This bitch.” There’s nothing better than the belly laughs a shared joke between friends brings. It’s hard not to appreciate the honesty of these ladies.

There are 131,000 comments and counting on the article…

Of course there are some people showing up to pretend that they never judge anyone, and recite their favorite passage from whatever Tony Robbins book they just read. Whatever. They can go ahead and think happy thoughts all day long.

We’ll be over here laughing. Oh, and you can’t sit with us.
