Another epic chapter, dedicated to the use of social media mentions how annoying it is to #hash #tag #every #single #word #when #making #a #caption #on #a #picture. Luvvie gives purpose and meaning to social media by exposing its misuse. This honest debut also pokes the false nature of news outlets and the so-called reality TV shows.

Luvvie also narrates experiences that affects Nigerians living in America like the pronunciation of Nigerian names by foreigners. She mentions emotionally provoking events like when a person eats more in a group dinner at a restaurant and asks everyone to split the bill equally. She intelligently analyzes pop culture and the idea of privacy (on Facebook) concerning relationships.
​
Luvvie’s book is a complete guide to avoid ignorance and misbehavior. She indeed makes sense and sensibility available to all with "I’m Judging you". Her book fulfils Maya Angelo’s words; "when you know better, you do better."
