8. You’re certain that you need a quick cup of coffee and you’ll be ready to go again

Still basking in your 2048 achievement, you’re sure to stop to chat with a colleague or housemate about how much work you have to do.

Note it’s your third one today and start worrying if that’s bad for you.

Oh my GOD there’s that birthday card your nephew wrote for you last year! You read it again. Show everyone.

“Quickly”.

11. Time to do those spreadsheets yet?

12. Notice a Facebook photo posted by that guy you went to school with and wonder how he’s doing

Why not find out EVERYTHING ABOUT HIM, and compare your life to his?

There’s no photo on his LinkedIn profile but he’s potentially a neuroscientist now.
