Isn't this just the most relatable thing?

10 Things Only People From Your Town Will Get

You know what's relatable and shareable? Lists about where you live, because everyone knows exactly what its like to be on main street having getting that sonderous feeling that everyone gets. I bet that everyone knows what it's like to live in one of those towns, and I know you'll get what I mean with these little moments!

1. There's Nothing To Do


Literally nothing is possible to do within town because actions are meaningless. Nothing ever changes or happens because quite simply, there is nothing to do.

2. Being Able To Drive Is A Must

By taking a writing and a practical driving exam, as well as providing proper documentation at the local Department of Motor Vehicles branch, one may obtain a certification granting them permission to operate a vehicle without supervision, which is so totally needed here.

3. And Once You're In High school, It's Everything


Because once you start going to the local high school, you're in high school to do high school things. Prom. Class. That one teacher everyone knows and loves. Those two teachers who are probably having an affair. That kind of stuff.

4. People Are Always Talking About School Rivalry


All of those schools having rivalries, taunting and teasing each other for some reason that no one really knows or understands. Perhaps, it is merely a way to fill in the oppressive emptiness that comes from having nothing to do, and because those guys from the other school are losers.

5. Everyone Knows Everyone!


You can't go anywhere without running into someone that you know. It's like they're always following you! No matter where you go: when you're shopping, when you go for a walk, and even when you run through the forest late at night. They always find you. L O L

6. You Always Wave Hi To People You Pass

To this day the reflex is deeply instilled. You probably had that rebellious phase where you tried to not wave. Once you came out of the coma, you realized that its such a nice gesture - you'll continue to uphold it forever.

7. The Bugs Are The Worst


This one goes without saying.

8. You Know Which Roads To Avoid


Not everywhere can be perfect. Sure, sometimes people go missing, but it's the price to pay for a crimeless town. Everyone gets their pound of flesh!

9. You Had To Get Out As Fast As Possible


You had no other choice, they were closing in on you from all sides. You couldn't stay any longer without risking your life... or worse.

10. But You Still Miss It


Sometimes late at night you can hear it out there, calling you, whispering through the dark.

27 Things 'The Office' Has Taught Us

"The Office" is a mockumentary based on everyday office life featuring love triangles, silly pranks and everything in between. It can get pretty crazy for just an average day at the office.

When you were little, your parents probably told you television makes your brain rot so you wouldn't watch it for twelve straight hours. However, I feel we can learn some pretty valuable stuff from television shows. "The Office," while a comedy, has some pretty teachable moments thrown in there. You may not know how to react in a situation where a co-worker does something crazy (like put your office supplies in jello) but thanks to "The Office," now you'll have an idea how to behave ifsomething like that should happen.

Here are just a few of the things that religious Office watchers can expect to learn.

High School And College Sucked All Of The Fun Out Of Reading

Books were always about understanding for me, about learning the way someone else sees, about connection.

High School And College Sucked All Of The Fun Out Of Reading

I keep making this joke whenever the idea of books is brought up: "God, I wish I knew how to read." It runs parallel to another stupid phrase, as I watch my friends struggle through their calculus classes late at night in our floor lounge: "I hope this is the year that I learn to count." They're both truly idiotic expressions, but, when I consider the former, I sometimes wonder if there's some truth to it.

One Book Made Me Question Existence In Its Entirety

"The Stranger" by Albert Campus touches upon many heavy elements... but not in the way you expect. Although it touches upon the aspects of death and love, it also deals with a hidden philosophy similar to that of nihilism.

The story follows the short life events of Meursault, a Frenchman whose carelessness for his actions eventually ends him in jail and dependent on a jury of people to judge the ethicality of his decision and the punishment that he deserves. He eventually gets the death penalty and all throughout he is nonchalant and almost apathetic towards his situation. He finally snaps when the prison sends a priest to him to absolve him of his sins and to cajole him in confessing to the lord.
