Well, there are a lot of things. But here are 16 of them.

Try to get through the list without punching your screen in frustration.

1. When non-dancers try to show off their knowledge of dance moves

I mean, I still could...But I just... don’t want to anymore.

My prestyle was super swagu... But I also hit dem folks at the end…I can't fit those moments into the same clip because IG has a 1-minute limit on videos...

But I really don’t want to do a carousel of videos… Why is life so hard?
