11 Movies To Watch This Holiday Season
popsugar

From Elf quotes to fuzzy little monsters, these movies will help you pass the time until the big day you've been waiting for. Just make sure you don't turn into a Grinch while waiting for it to arrive. Instead, just sit back, relax, and drink a nice big cup of "hot, hot, hot. hot cho-co-late!" - Polar Express.


1. Home Alone.

These movies always made me think about why his parents continuously left him home alone year after year, even though this kept happening. Fortunately, this kid has an endless pit of ideas that keep him safe each and every year.

2. Elf.


Can't we all be as excited as Buddy is when we see Santa? Or at least know that Christmas is slowly approaching? Well, maybe we don't have to be as excited as Buddy is, but we can at least show a little bit of excitement and enthusiasm on the approaching days and not just the day of.

3. Bad Santa.

Remember, just because you're a mall Santa, doesn't mean you're immediately going to go on the nice list. You need to play the part as well, unlike Mr. Thorton here.

5. The Polar Express.

Does the bell still ring for you? If it doesn't I suggest taking some time to watch this movie, so you'll start to "truly believe".

6. Rudolf the Red-Nosed Reindeer.

"Then one foggy Christmas eve, Santa came to say. Rudolf with your nose so bright, won't you guide my sleigh tonight?" - Gene Autry

7. The Santa Clause.

Unless you want to end up being Santa Claus like Tim Burton. Just let that noise you hear on your roof late on Christmas eve be. Cause if you don't, you'll be in for a nice surprise.

8. A Christmas Story.

Remember when mom always said "You'll shoot your eye out" if you get that bb-gun? Well, how do we know if that'll happen if we don't get it?

9. Eight Crazy Nights.


"Hanukkah is the festival of lights, instead of one day of presents we get eight crazy nights" - Adam Sandler.We have to remember that this holiday season isn't just about Christmas. Even though there are tons of movies leaning that way, Adam Sandler felt like a movie about Hanukkah was very much needed.

10. Unaccompanied minors.

For those of you who travel to other parts of your family during the holidays, you've probably experienced this once or twice. Well, maybe not to the extent of these guys, but you know what I mean.

11. Dr. Seuss's: How the Grinch Stole Christmas.

"Maybe Christmas." the Grinch thought "doesn't come from a store, maybe Christmas" ...perhaps... "means a little bit more" - Dr. Seuss. Enjoy your holiday season, be with family and friends, and don't be a Grinch.

Toilet Troubles

"So, usually I would never go on a Tinder date but when you are out with girlfriends and a hot Bosnian guy says he wants to hang with you and his friends, you oblige. We head to their apartment and when I realized I may pee my pants if I don't find a bathroom soon. I ask for the bathroom and a friend of my tinder date shows me to it and said in all seriousness that I was not allowed to flush the toilet under ANY circumstances. Having a few drinks--or five--I relieved myself to, nevertheless, flush the toilet. Within seconds, his bathroom was flooded and towels were laid out everywhere to catch the toilet water. To say the least, we were not invited back"

Clare Concannon

With being a member of Greek life, you are going to come across people who HATE Greek life and who always want to say something negative towards it. If you're not a part of Greek life, there's absolutely nothing wrong with that. But maybe try and keep some of the not-so-nice comments to yourself.
