One of the keys to having a successful social media presence is being relatable, and there’s nothing more relatable than shared pop culture references, especially when quoting one of your favorite shows. Since its historic sweep of the 2020 Emmys, Schitt’s Creek has become a touchstone of pop culture; it also helps that it’s a veritable font of relatable quotes about life, full of memorable references that can help you document your everyday experiences perfectly on the ‘gram. Whether you’re having a chill movie night with your family or enjoying a virtual happy hour in your own pad, these Schitt’s Creek quotes are here to caption the memories.

Finding the Schitt's Creek quote that best fits the picture you want to post is the first step. If you and your pup go on daily walks in your neighborhood, stop to snap a selfie the next time you head outside and use Moira's line, "A little stroll through the slice of paradise I like to call... the town where I currently am," for your caption because that's, well, exactly where you are. A positive quote like Alexis' line, "Love that journey for me" will pair nicely with an #OOTD pic, and David's hilarious line, "I'm gonna need a stiff drink to get through this" may perfectly caption your next happy hour snap.

There are enough Schitt's Creek quotes about life to match up with just about any moment you want to share on the 'gram, because the Rose family really knows their Schitt. So, browse through this list and see which quote pops out to you the most for your next post.
