Sullivan explained that if you came across this image while scrolling, it likely impacted you for about four seconds before moving on to the next unknown image that was about to roll up on your screen.

“I think that our society is drowning so much in social media imagery that we don’t take the time to fully process one idea before we scroll on to the next thing. Our emotions and feelings take the most toll from this type of exposure,” Sullivan said.

Damn Sullivan, why you gotta bring us down like that?

Ironically, this photo wasn’t even in the running for best photo in Sullivan’s class.

I’d love to see the top photos.

Crazy how this meme is supposedly almost a decade old and this is the first time I’ve ever seen it.
