10 Reasons To Stop Playing 'Pokemon Go!'

1. Because you're an adult and adults aren't allowed to have fun.

You should be at your nine to five job or doing your taxes. Adults shouldn't be playing silly games like 'Pokemon Go!' You should be at home complaining about today's youth and their technology like every other self respecting grown-up. You should literally hate your life and be actively trying to ruin other people's fun instead of having fun yourself.

2. Pokemon are actually demons.

3. The terrorists want you to play 'Pokemon Go!'

The Pokemonare literally ISIS recruiters. You'll catch them and they'll be like, "Ahh, you got me. You've now subscribed to ISIS newsletters."


4. You might accidentally get some exercise.

This is actually so un-American and very alarming to think that this could be happening right now. Disgusting.


5. You might get hurt/something bad could happen to you.

Playing 'Pokemon Go!' is actually the only possible way or circumstance that anyone could get into an accident, hurt themselves, be robbed, or anything else bad that could happen to you. Literally society was perfect before this game.

6. One caught Pokemon = one vote for Donald Trump.

If this were true, I'd actually want everyone to stop playing this game and this would be a very serious article.


7. You might meet new people and/or make new friends.

Hey, we're all gonna die alone, so who needs friends in the mean time, am I right?

8. Non-Pokemon fans might be forced to see you having a good time and experiencing your shared world that they do not own.

How dare you walk around town re-living your childhood, having the time of your life while others are also outside and can see you. That is so rude, flaunting your happiness like that, you might force someone to go on the internet and reveal how jealous and bitter they are.


9. 'Pokemon Go!' caused 9/11.

Jet fuel burned through those steel beams? No, that was Charizard.


10. The Bible says it's wrong and everyone else who plays it are sending those who don't to Hell.

Because when you don't like something and it's a part of your religion, then no one else is allowed to do that thing because it absolutely affects you.

Today I started my third week of college at Minnesota State Moorhead. I have survived welcome week, finding my classes on the first day, and being an awkward loner in the dining hall. Even though I have yet to be here for a month, I have already experienced many thoughts and problems that only a new college student can relate to.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.

For a moment your world is spinning. The phone alarm has just scared you awake and you’re flooded by daunting thoughts of the day ahead. You have three assignments due and little time to work on them because of your job. You’re running late because you’ve hit snooze one to many times after yesterday’s long hours. You dizzily reach for a hoodie, craving its comfort, and rush for a speedy exit, praying you will have time to pick up coffee. Does this sound familiar?

Finals week is upon us. It is a magical time of year during which college students everywhere flock to the library in attempt to learn a semester's worth of knowledge in only a week. For some students, it's their first time in the library all semester, maybe ever. Others have slaved away many nights under the fluorescent lights, and are slightly annoyed to find their study space being invaded by amateurs. While these newbies wander aimlessly around the first floor, hopelessly trying to find a table, the OGs of the library are already on the third floor long tables deep into their studies. Here is a few signs that you may live in the library, whether you'd like to admit it or not.
