20 People Who Reacted Perfectly To Snapchat Deleting Best Friends

Yesterday, Evan Spiegel basically turned the technological world upside down when he removed the best friends list from Snapchat.

For those of you who have hobbies and spend your time productively rather than stalking people, you may be unfamiliar with what happened.

Your best friend list is created based on the frequency of how often you send and receive pictures from a specific person. The top three individuals are thus displayed in descending order for all your contacts to creep on.

What does creator Spiegel have to say?

We'll bring back BFs soon. A few higher-profile friends wanted to keep their usernames private - we'll come up with a better way to do that. — Evan Spiegel (@evanspiegel) January 27, 2015

So what did life look like before the update?

You would think people would be happy about this for the most part, but the reactions we have seen are hilarious, ridiculous and, of course, entertaining.
