I'll be the first to admit that I'm guilty of the occasional flake-out, ditching party plans for a quiet night in, but GOOD.is' 'The Rules of Flaking Out' illustrated graph has shown me that I am not alone. The hilariously honest infographic shows the steps necessary to successfully ditch your plans for a night alone with your computer, TV and pillow. The how-to guide is all too true to life, with steps like, "Watch 50 videos of magic tricks on YouTube" and, "Eat a piece of cheese while thinking up possible excuses." My favorite step is one I'm sure most girls can relate to, "Fall asleep. Wake up with makeup all over pillow and lights on."
'The Rules of Flaking Out' is a hilarious graph perfect for sharing with friends -- unless, of course, you don't want your cover blown! Enjoy this great illustrated guide by Christie Young, and happy ditching!
