It might be all about Instagram and Snapchat now but waaay back in the 2010 era, life was nothing if not a series of events on tumblr.

It was where you learned to express yourself, to love something really passionately and to basically act way cooler and more individual than you actually felt inside.

But first check out our babe Connor Franta schooling you on social media dos and don'ts...

So chances are, if you were ride or die for the blog then you will remember doing one or two of these...

1. Pretending you thought weird anime porn was cool

Tumblr

Seriously who came up with this stuff? You know this is a pony right?

2. Reading a lot ofpeople's emotionaldiary posts

And it was normally someone you'd never met but really felt like you 'connected' with on another level, obv.

3. Seeing a dead body on your dash

Just pretend they were fake and they won’t haunt your dreams for the rest of time.

4. Revelling in the drama of fake comments

That occasionally you may have sent to yourself and others. What? Life was dull in 2013.

5. Obsessing oversuper deep, sadgirl music

If you try and say you didn’t discover Lana Del Ray on tumblr, you're lying.

6. Reblogging a lot of pot-related artwork

Despite the fact you never had even seen it IRL.

7. Just sharing a lot of angst

We were all not okay, hun.

8. Being really into pics of tattoos

Inner lip, back, behind the ear and neck. It was ALL going on.

9. Shipping

Before shipping was even a thing like it is now, if you had love for a fictional couple, they were all over your blog. And someone would have a problem with it.

10. Obsessing over all the hair styles that are legit cool now

We were so ahead of things.

11. Just seeing somany porn adverts

MY EYES. But also...what's going on there?

12. Getting annoyed if your friend had the same layout as you
