1. Being well-versed in band acronyms like MCR, FOB, P!ATD, etc.
And writing them all over your schoolbag.

2. Relating heavily to the song I’m Not Okay (I Promise)
All together now: “Well if you wanted honesty, that’s all you had to say”
3. Constantly having to blow your fringe out of your eyes
And having to listen your family make gags at your expense. Don’t listen to them. They just don’t understand.
