Social Media Graduation

Social media graduation has several definitions. When someone has evolved past the need for social media. This is often due to factors such as financial stability within the majority of the population. Occasionally this happens towards the end of Rumspringa as a last chance to party before going offline permanently (or at the least, no longer using social media). Social media graduation also happens due to factors of age, and having outgrown social media in some form, even if graduate decides to continue to use other social media. When social media graduation happens, online & offline celebrations are common, often happening at the same time. Strictly offline celebrations are common as well. This sort of event can cause paradoxical feelings of intense joy, sadness, loss of friendships, and strengthening of existing ones. It can be as important to some people as a high school, college or university graduation, depending on their background & culture.

Synonymous terms include, but are not limited to: Social networking graduation, insert website and / or app here graduation, internet graduation, social media retirement. This is not that same as quitting social media out of frustration, or a social media break.

Example 2: Having outgrown the app, and wanting an excuse to have fun, the young lady threw a TikTok graduation party complete with a shocking ceremony to keep her legendary status.

Example 3: Being too busy for Facebook, they graduated from social media. They exchanged phone numbers, and mentioned their frequent hangouts to friends. They had a few drinks to celebrate with coworkers on a lunch break.

Example 4: Due to factors of aging, but wanting to quit social media, we threw a social media graduation party for our grandmother instead. She was much happier this was, and loved ones were more understanding.

High School Graduation

High School Graduation is the bipolar day for everybody. Everybody has mixed feelings about this day. Usually you are really happy because of all of the shallow bitches or fuckboys you don't have to deal with anymore, and feel a sense of revenge because they've wasted all of their time trying to manipulate you. But also you feel really upset because you know it's the day that represents the last time you hanging out with your friends and close people. Once it's all over you usually miss high school and wish you could go back to this day with everybody else.
High school graduation is the day where your life takes a huge turn, both for the better and the worse.
