Funny blogs and Tumblrs are my guilty pleasure and I will be the first to admit that I can spend hours upon hours on them, which is why the 'This is Why You're Single' Tumblr is taking up a large portion of my day.
Similar to the This is Why You're [Still] Single Tumblr, these two photo blogs are full of funny anecdotes, sayings, and photos of stereotypical actions and thoughts of single people.
Some of my favorites from the This is Why You're Single Tumblr are "You call your group of friends 'the dragons'... and you're all in your mid-20s," "OkCupid is your most visited site. More than Gmail, more than Facebook" and "You actually follow the sex tips in Cosmopolitan."
