Hilarious Lines from I Want You Back to Use as Your Next Instagram Caption
February is the month of rom-coms, and if you love stirring romance and hilarious comedies, you won't find a more perfect blending of the two than in the new Amazon Prime film I Want You Back.
Starring Jenny Slate and Charlie Day, the movie follows two friends who team up to destroy their exes' new relationships in order to win back their former loves. We love how funny and surprisingly tender the new flick is—and here are some of our favorite quotes from the movie that also double as Instagram captions.
For one of those moments where you realize you don't have things figured out at all:
"We're all just pretending that we know what we're doing, and we're hoping that we don't screw it up too badly."
