When following your friend or favorite Instagram photographer, you might be unfortunate enough to have a user who tends to write long captions using nothing but hashtags. It may look a bit like this:

#beautiful #cute #picstitch #fashion #love #summer #food #tbt #igers #jj #follow #girl #instamood #instagramhub #me #happy #webstagram #tflers #instadaily #sun #iphoneonly #sky #iphonesia #instagood #tagsforlikes #bestoftheday #nofilter #tweegram #picoftheday #photooftheday

That list was automatically generated from top-hastags.com — a site dedicated to helping Instagram users fill their captions with nothing but hashtags.
