Pet·ty

o     (of behavior) characterized by an undue concern for trivial matters, especially in a small-minded or spiteful way.

To many, being petty can be a good and/or bad thing. If you can relate to more than half of these, you my friend are PETTY!

Restarted an argument because you thought of more valid points afterward

 

Mimicked someone when you couldn’t think of a comeback or didn’t care what they were saying

 

 

Gather information but wait until an argument to further prove your point

 

 

Have your read receipts on/intentionally ignored someone because they ignored you

 

 

Saying something under your breath and purposely not repeating yourself

 

 

Have more screenshots on your phone than you do selfies

 

 

Already knew the tea but acts shocked like the news is new to you 

 

 

You have mastered the side-eye

 

 

Seen or heard petty stories and took notes for future use

 

 

Known as the “petty friend” within your crew

 

 

Brag that no one can be pettier than you because you are the Petty Queen

 

 

Acknowledge that petty is the way of life and happiness

 

 

HCXO!
