Drake really is all of us, sometimes.

When Rihanna posted an Insta of her at Crop Over Fest, an annual Barbados Carnival she attends every year, the internet swooned over her beautiful jeweled bikini. Everyone was happy, until Chris Brown decided to comment on it. For some reason, the singer, who was arrested for assaulting Rihanna in 2009, thought it was a good idea to comment a side-eye emoji on the pic.

We are sure Rihanna did not need that kind of approval from him, or his flirty emoji and the internet DEFINITELY didn't need it. The multitude of fans spoke out loud and clear against his comment.

An ex leaving a flirty comment on social media is one thing, but considering Chris Brown's past with physical abuse, many felt like it's crossing a boundary.

Drake was one of those people.

A source told Hollywood Life that Drake, like the rest of us, was not here for this nonsense, calling Brown's behavior "sad, lonely, and desperate."

"Drake feels it is time for Chris to grow up and move on from Rihanna," the source close to Drake said. "Drake is very protective and has a lot of love for her even though he is not with Rihanna."

YES. That's what we like to hear.

Chris Brown, in the future, please think before you post.
