It sounds like you spent more time writing this comment than she did to respond to all of her friend's snaps from the night before. Heroin is a waste of a life; Snapchat is just a distraction, and a minor one at that.

A distraction where continued use is necessary for your friendships to remain in place. That mediates social status among young people. While they learn how to interact with other people in social situations.

So ... no, not just a distraction. Just a new thing we haven't seen the outcome of yet (besides some evidence of a large increase in narcissism and a drop in empathy).

She clearly says that, given free time, she does nothing but snap chat. Not sure how that's a minor distraction.

I don't think you can say with a straight face that the girl's usage of snapchat is a minor distraction.

At least heroin lasts longer.
