Have you ever packed a long sleeve shirt to go to the beach? Do you have not one but multiple sun burn horror stories? Congratulations! You're pale AF. Whether you've recently accepted your paleness or you've been channeling Amy Lee all along, you'll know that summer is a painful time for us...

1. You're the same color in August that you were in December

No, I don't just live in the library. The sun is just mean to me.

2. You feel this on a personal level

I'm just over here, minding my own invisible business.


3. Every time you go to Target, you come home with a new bronzer

Constantly chasing that "healthy glow."


4. You know exactly how long you can be outside before you become a lobster

2 hours, 3 minutes, 7 seconds.


5. You get a lot of questions about your health

I'M NOT SICK, AUNT JUDITH. WE'VE BEEN OVER THIS.

6. Once upon a time you saw these and were immediately full of unrealistic expectations

TBH you turned orange and streaky.

7. Finding a new sunscreen is cause for celebration

Non-greasy and it doesn't clog my pores?! YAASSS

8. You can rock a tan line like nobody else

You don't choose the pale life, the pale life chooses you.

9. Every outfit includes a hat

You and this grandma have a lot in common.

10. You've had to come to terms with your status as a pale princess

But, hey, unicorns are pale too. And they're f@#$% badass.

Embrace your inner unicorn.

Thank You on wooden blocks

1. Thank you for being the one I can always count on to be honest.

A true friend will tell you if the shirt is ugly, or at least ask to borrow it and "accidentally" burn it.

2. Thank you for accepting me for who I am.

A best friend will love you regardless of the stale french fries you left on the floor of your car, or when you had lice in 8th grade and no one wanted to talk to you.

Do as I say, not as I do.

Your eyes widen in horror as you stare at your phone. Beads of sweat begin to saturate your palm as your fingers tremble in fear. The illuminated screen reads, "Missed Call: Mom."

"Friends" maybe didn’t have everything right or realistic all the time, but they did have enough episodes to create countless reaction GIFs and enough awesomeness to create, well, the legacy they did. Something else that is timeless, a little rough, but memorable? Living away from the comforts of home. Whether you have an apartment, a dorm, your first house, or some sort of residence that is not the house you grew up in, I’m sure you can relate to most of these!
