The Scroll That Never Ends

You: “I’ll just check TikTok for 5 minutes.”
Also, you: 2 hours later, questioning life choices, tea cold, back hurts, but still scrolling.

Let’s expose how these apps turn us into smooth-brained zombies

• Swipe = Slot Machine
  Every scroll is a gamble:
  💤 boring
  😴 boring
  🔥 OH MY GOD THIS IS HILARIOUS
  Your brain goes: “Do it again.”
  Congratulations, you’re now a Vegas gambler… but in bed.

 

•  Infinite Scroll = Infinite Regret
  No, “you’re all caught up.”
  No “take a break.”
  Just endless content until you die or your battery gives up.

 

• “Help me, please.” videos
  TikTok:         

“Don’t scroll, I’m sad.”
“Stay with me, it boosts my video.”
You: Stay out of guilt, and now crying for a stranger with a ring light.

They’re farming your empathy like it’s a new crypto coin.

•  When you try to find that video again…
  You just saw a guy explaining aliens and pineapples.
  You search for it: POOF, vanished.
  Not a glitch. It’s on purpose.
  Now your brain says: “Better not skip anything ever again.”

 

•  They know when you hesitate

  
  
  Paused on a sad cat video for 0.7 seconds?
  Cool. Here comes 34 more.
  Almost clicked on a cooking fail?
  Boom. Welcome to Kitchen DisasterTok™.

They see you. Always. Like a clingy ex with AI powers.

• You’re not weak. You’re outnumbered.
  They’ve got teams of brain scientists.
  You’ve got… your tired soul and a stale snack.

✅ Save Yourself, Warrior

• Turn off autoplay

• Hide the apps in a folder called “Productivity.”

• Blink twice if you’re still scrolling

You deserve your time back.

And now you know the tricks, you’re one step closer to reclaiming it. 💥
