  11. LOSING MY SHIT.

  12. #CloutChasing statements you may or may not recognize:

    "I have thousands of people following me. I'm only following back 1/10000 of folks."

    "I have an army of followers & I don't care about what the rest of you say."

    "Obviously, ppl follow me because I have important things to say. I don't ever follow back."

    I block/remove people like that.
    Get the fuck over yourselves.
