Yes, even your nicest friends can turn into unbearably annoying narcissistic people who care only about themselves (and how awesome they are). Whether you knew it already or not, most of your friends probably fall into at least one of the following categories. You probably fall into a few of these yourself. 21. The Internet Meme Friend These friends aren't hard to spot. Every single status update they make involves an Internet meme or e-card of some sort.

The Groupie Friend These friends like and comment on all of your statuses almost as fast as you c...
