The Yellow Heart is the modern-day equivalent of a friendship bracelet. Except it’s made of data and anxiety. It’s cute, it’s fleeting, and it’s extremely easy to break. Wear it proudly while it lasts. Because tomorrow, you might lose it to a meme war.
So next time you see that little yellow heart, just smile. Send a silly snap. Laugh about how ridiculous we all are for caring this much. And remember: if you lose it, it’s not the end of the world. It’s just a emoji. A deeply, emotionally significant emoji that can ruin your entire week. But still. Just an emoji.
Now, go check your Snapchat. You know you want to. I’ll be here, sipping my coffee, wondering who stole my Yellow Heart last night. Probably Karen from accounting.
