Everyone should have their time to shine, but some people can't help being the main character in their lives 24/7. We all have these people in our lives, and maybe you are that person! Some people love to post every minute of their lives on their socials, which of course their friends will comment on, hyping up their reels, snaps, or TikToks. It's so lovely when your besties give you love on your photos, but too much of that might give you a big head.

Even influencers with just a few hundred followers want to think they're celebrities, because basically anybody can be a celeb if they get enough attention. With the development of "Main Character Syndrome," some people just go through life doing anything and everything for those sweet, sweet likes.

Next up, here's why one person didn't even stick around for a job interview and chose to walk out the door instead.

OP posted this calling the coworker the main character, but in the comments, people were saying the Slack-poster wasn't doing anything wrong...

Maybe posting your coworkers Slack messages makes you the Main Character?

After all, people noted that she wrote all this in one thread. I tend to side with the poster, though — why in the world would your coworkers at your workplace need to know ALL of this? TMI, TMI. (Hope the cat is ok!)

"When they kick you out of the wedding photos because you don't wanna wear what everyone else is"

via u/chzbread

I wonder why a tall hat would be problematic at a wedding where people take hundreds of photos? Hmm.

Using a parking space is for regular people, main characters park wherever they feel like

This group of singers thought this was an appropriate time to start singing "Take Me Home, Country Roads"

No hate to the group or John Denver, but don't ever do that again, I'm serious. Let people watch movies with their little earbuds in and eat the tiny bags of pretzels. No need for any extra in-flight entertainment, please and thanks.

She not only brought a full cake, but she put sparklers in it and posed in the middle of a crowded walkway!

Rumor has it this guy rides around playing Pokemon Go on about 40 cell phones. He is the only person who's allowed to be the main character. Carry on, sir!

Smart water placed just so

The guy who posted the photo was actually in a bad bike accident, so he didn't care for this influencer allegedly staging her accident.
