a quick guide to making slack more fun
normalize slack whimsy
Oh so you want to be everyone’s favorite on slack?
Some phrases to add to your Slack repertoire:
Nail emoji: 💅
Use it when you’re:
a) hyping someone up
b) the convo is giving “we’re the best.”
Pair it with a “periodddd💅” or “okkkk John💅” for maximum effect.
Works best 40-year-old dad who will really just get a kick out of it.
Swanky
Why would we say “sounds good” or “looks great” when you could say “swanky” instead?
It’s elevated. Classy. Fun
hey sis
For the work besties you spill tea with. It’s like “hey😏” but with more vibes.
Extend out words
Hey heyyyy, hi hiiiii, tyyyyyy, thank youuuuuuu
It’s just giving a little something extra, don’t you think?
Perf
Short for perfect. You’re perfect. The deliverable’s perfect. It’s all perf.
thank you sir (all lowercase)
Use when someone gives you what you need…a more fun thank you
Pairs well with salute emoji 🫡 or handshake emoji 🤝
lit
Another way to say something is great.
Simple. Effective.
Can use “lit af” if you’re feeling crazy
You’re my hero
For when someone really comes through and you know they went the extra mile. You’re my hero!
Devil emoji 😈
Simply add this to messages when you’re feeling super motivated or almost dangerously productive.
—town USA
A suffix for anything you want to emphasize.
Example: “Every time we post stuff like that it is flop town USA…I think it’s best if we don’t.”
boooo (with tomato emojis)
We need to bring back booing when things do not go as planned.
Bonus: react to messages with the tomato emoji 🍅 to signify a “boo.” It’s like ‘boooo I’m throwing tomatoes’
THE ART OF THE INSTAGRAM STORIES
Ever wondered how the baddies always have the best Instagram stories? Whether it’s the food, the scenery, or just the vibes…
As the designated Instagram Story Friend™ who always gets reposted by my friends, I got you.
Here’s how to take better pics that’ll have your stories swiping up with comments like this:

ATE
The recipe for gorgalicious pics is below👇
Always use 2x zoom when snapping pics of things: food, drinks, cute lil setups, you name it.

If you’ve got a newer iPhone like me, you know it loves to randomly auto-brighten your pics 🙄
Sooooo, always always always turn the exposure down. I have mine auto set to -0.3, and if the lighting’s super harsh, I’ll go as low as -0.7.

click the arrow, adjust exposure with the circle that has a + and - in it lol
