A wise guy once said that "no man is an island" but boy, do some of us wish we were. Solo. In silence. Stranded out in the middle of the beautiful sea. Just me, myself and I. Peopling can sometimes get exhausting, even for the extroverted among us. But for introverts, suffering through the crowded world with unsolicited company and small talk can be pure t*****e.

If you'd rather lay low and often find yourself canceling weekend plans in favor of solitude, you're not alone. Yes, we said it... According to the Myers-Briggs Company, around 56.8% people around the world prefer introversion. Some of them can be found sipping tea while scrolling through social media.

Instagram account @diaryintroverts has more than 277,000 followers just like you. They congregate quietly, alone but together, to laugh at relatable memes and reels about life in the slow lane. Bored Panda has put together a list of our top picks from the page so you that you have something fun to do when you turn down that next social invitation.

True. My angry side is an exception, an extreme caused by extraordinary circumstances.

    I started learning to play a completely new instrument. Some of the early pieces of practice music play in my head even in my dreams.

    I often see this happening here and I tend to stay quiet about a few controversial topics because of those who attack others that have differing thoughts/opinions. BP is my only source of content/media that I utilize and even though the attacks here seem to be less harsh than other sites, it's just not worth it, imho.

    And I say, Bring It On! I have no fear of strangers lurking behind aliases who think they can spew their hatred and ignorance. If something I add is factually incorrect, then by all means, let me know. But don't ever think your opinion trumps my opinion.

    Yeah people downvote religious ppl. As long as everyone can respect each other, what’s the harm in religion? It gives hope.

    Tell that to children abused by priests or single mothers that had their babies taken from them. Tell that to extremist preachers that teach hate and violence. Tell that to the people ripped off and robbed by evangelical preachers who live in luxury while taking money from the poorest.

    In high school, I had a history text book that belonged to some satanist and/or top-tier edgelord, complete with pentagrams, some Latin chants, prayers to Satan etc. I had to resist the urge to sprinkle it with holy water 😅

    Nonsense. When I change my phone I get money back for returning it in good condition. Nothing says "good condition" like original packaging.

    Sometimes I wake up at 5am and think, "I'm going to get loads done today". And then I accomplish one small task, sit down and the next thing I know it's 5pm.

    Along with useless pop culture trivia, nearly the entire dialogue of the 1990 Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles and so many songs stored in the long term section of my brain. Also jokes, both bad and dad, puns, and somewhere in there, making himself known at the worst times, is a 13 year old's dirty sense of humor.

    I was scuba diving in murky water, quickly lost my dive buddy, found him, picked up two more lost partners and at 80' below the surface had the realization, "Holy c**p - I just became these people's divemaster!"
