Money is wonderful. And terrible. And exciting and exhausting and confusing and pretty much any emotion you can possibly feel. When you think about it that way, it's not surprising we make mistakes with our money, put off decisions we know we should make or wish we could just have someone else deal with our finances every once in a while.

Twitter is a fantastic reflection of people's complicated relationship with money. Like when we know buying something doesn't make a lot of sense but we get it anyway:

Free movie ticket and all I had to do was buy 5 bags of skittles 😅 pic.twitter.com/hnznB77oDm

Or want other people to justify our spending habits:

Fave if I should spend my money on chicken wings today — Justine (@justinelesponge) May 3, 2016

There are a lot of hilarious and ridiculous things people tweet about money, and even when it's not serious, it's relatable. For example, we've all had this feeling:

If I could take back all the times I spent money on dumb or irrelevant things I could have about 2k rn — Michaela (@michaelaa_allen) May 4, 2016

And definitely had this realization:

Trying to do a lot more things that don't involve me spending dumb amounts of money… Guess that takes drinking out the picture — Johnny_Tsunami (@DaltonJarrard) April 30, 2016

But that doesn't stop us from doing things like this:

The only thing I used my tax refund for was to pay for food and alcohol this weekend — ° jack ° (@JackMakesTweets) April 19, 2016

Or ignoring our instincts:

me: should I spend my tax refund on skincare or clothes? my brain: put it in your savings account me: I'm going to buy both — Kristin (@deerisms) April 19, 2016

Or flat-out making decisions we know make no sense:

I bought shoes but it's fine I just won't eat for 2 weeks — julz (@julcoooo) May 4, 2016

But it's not just you:

"I need to buy jeans." "What if we got wine instead?" "I could go for wine."#ThirstyThursday #mommyvaca — TRISH (@CreativeLoveNC) May 5, 2016

Peer pressure, man:

What should I spend my $26 tax refund on? — Ben Fractenberg (@fractenberg) April 1, 2016

It's not like you don't try to make good decisions and be responsible:

I just bought avocados because they taste nice but I have no idea how to prepare them. This is an accurate depiction of adulthood. — zachary steele (@zach_steele) May 13, 2016

But there's always something else you could do with your budget:

Spend all your grocery money on alcohol. — Life Advice Lamp (@Lamp) May 9, 2016

Plus, choosing between needs and wants can be really confusing:
