I never knew a true crime documentary could be so funny.

10 Thoughts I Had While Watching 'Making a Murderer'
E! Online

I'm a little (read:1 year) late to the Making a Murderer watch party, but when I finally sat down to watch this binge-worthy series I was not disappointed. The entire series runs about ten hours long, and is full of plot twists and shady police officers and government officials that force you to question everything you thought you knew about our justice system here in the United States. However, when watching a grim series like this, sometimes I just had to laugh at the people of Manitowoc County. So here are ten hilarious thoughts I had while watching Making a Murderer.

1. When the intro started and I thought I had accidentally turned on Game of Thrones.

Here's a link to an awesome video that plays the Game of Thrones title sequence with Making a Murderer's music.

2. My reaction when Gregory Allen basically confessed to the rape of Penny Beerntsen, but the Manitowoc County sheriffs were just like "That sounds fake but okay" and Steven Avery was kept in jail anyways.
3. Then finally Steven was released after serving 18 years in prison for a crime he didn't commit and we all thought that he was kind of an okay guy, but still looked kinda creepy.

4. When there were eight episodes left in the series and Teresa Halbach was just introduced.

5. That moment when I realized that people from Wisconsin literally use the word "yeah" for everything and I wanted to die.

Send this to your true crime loving crush on Valentine's Day.

"Maybe 'yeah' can be our 'okay'."

6. When the reporters were always saying what the audience was thinking and were just as confused as we were.

7. Then every few episodes Steven would somehow have a new girlfriend/fiancee??


How did he even meet new women while in jail??

8. I also realized that Jerry and Dean were truly the best lawyer bros on the show.



9. EVERY. SINGLE. TIME. That a Manitowoc county police officer or sheriff said that they couldn't remember what they'd said or where they had been after Steven's arrest for the Halbach case, and then were forced to read a report that proved they had been in the place they said they weren't.


10. Finally, I decided that I'd never ever visit Wisconsin because the police are corrupt and everything is terrible.

In honor of Mother’s Day, I have been thinking of all the things my mom does for my family and me. Although I couldn’t write nearly all of them, here are a few things that moms do for us.

They find that shirt that’s right in front of you, but just you can’t seem to find.

Take the time to thank that one friend in your life you will never let go of.

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."

Growing up with strict parents, you learn that a few things go unsaid. Manners are everything. Never talk back. Do as you're told without question. Most importantly, you develop a system and catch on to these quirks that strict parents have so that you can play their game and do what you want.

"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!
