Hashtags have recently become a huge part of our day to day life. If you don't know what a hashtag is, it's possible you have been living under a rock. A hashtag for those who do not know is a way of tagging your post so that when people search '#cutie' your post shows up.
Hashtagging started on Twitter and was a funny way of ending your tweet. I often will use hashtags on twitter as a form of comedy, with tags such as: #yesfilter #mugshotmonday and #homelessproblems. I find that the longer the hashtag the funnier it gets with posts like: #iwonderifitwillsurfacebeforethegumiswallowed6yearsago and #maybeiwillturnthefreezerintoapool.
Hashtags are funny and useful at times but on Instagram they are used to get likes, comments and followers. I have fallen victim to the hashtag overkill on a photo, but at least my hashtags suit the photo. I have seen girls photos that say #nomakeup but they look like a cake faced clown. #Kitten #pretty #cute on a picture of a watermelon.
Ya'll need to quit cause your hashtags SUCK.
Happy Hashtagging.
Remember, I am watching.
