Social media is a menace for telling us about the kind of life it thinks we should be living. If we just bought this trending brand, or filmed ourselves looking hot while making our coffee every morning, we would feel so much better within ourselves.

Recently, this has come in the form of a TikToker who shared that she had given the inside of her refrigerator a makeover, with baffling results. Including flourishes such as dry pasta and an orchid plant, viewers were mighty confused with the setup. On top of everything, it didn't look like there was anything there that you could make a meal with. I'd take the lady with too many types of ice over this any day.
