We could all use a little Winston Bishop in our lives. He’s funny, charming, and at times pretty intuitive. He takes care of his friends, loves his fiancé, and is always down for anything fun. Winston is the guy you can call to make you laugh if you’re having a bad day, even though he doesn’t realize he’s being funny.

Sure I love Jess’s quirkiness, and Nick’s aloofness. Of course, I love Cece’s “normalcy” and Schmidt’s sassy demeanor. But, none of their humor compares to Winston’s. Winston is exactly what every college student is like. He gets us, especially our weird attachment to our pets. So, here are ten ways Winston from New Girl is basically a college student.

1. He has a borderline obsession with his cat*.

*dog, bird, fish, basically, any pet you have.

2. He knows how to have a good time, even by himself.

Because let’s be honest, most of our friends probably get sick of us from time to time, and we’re left with entertaining ourselves.

3. And when there's a party, he's always down.

"What midterm? I don’t have a midterm tomorrow…"
*laughs nervously before downing tequila shots*

4. He chooses to deal with his problems by making up crazy schemes, and they usually never go as planned.

College kids are notorious for doing everything possible to avoid our problems.

5. He understands our hatred for 8 AM classes.

6. He understands how vital coffee is in our lives, even though it's completely bad for us.

7. And food, especially if its free.

8. He's about as confident in his love life as us.

9. His fashion sense is amazing.

Because wearing that three-day old shirt and stained sweatpants to an 8 AM class is chic, right?

10. And finally, he knows how to answer the "now what are you doing with your life?" question that comes the second you graduate.

Winston is our true spirit animal.
