Don't blame us if we run you over.

11 Things People With Road Rage Think While Driving

Many drivers are plagued by road rage, myself included, and if you’ve ever been on the other side of our rage it can be quite scary. If you can't understand why we're so frustrated every time we get in the car, here’s a taste of what goes through our heads when we’re driving.


God I wish I could drive straight through all these cars.

Sometimes we fantasize about driving over or through all the cars in front of us just because we can’t stand sitting in traffic.


This a-hole in front of me is driving so freakin’ slow.

Honestly, the speed limit is 65 and therefore everyone should at least be going 80 mph. Either speed up of get run off the road.


Should I flip this guy off?

When we can finally pass the awful driver in front of us this is always a deeply considered question.


Why the hell is there traffic right now…there is no logical reason for this.

We absolutely do not understand traffic; there is no accident, no construction, no merging, so why in the world are we just sitting and suffering.


Hey, thanks for the blinker, moron.

Honestly people, just use your blinkers and don’t cut us off. It’s safer for everyone if you let us decide to let you in.


The light is green, WHY ARENT YOU MOVING?

We’re usually the people who honk when you don’t immediately accelerate when the light changes. We’re sorry about that but we really hate red lights so when you prolong the process of waiting by not going when the light turns green we can get a little cranky.


Stop slowing down for the yellow.

We go by the rule that yellow means speed up, not slow down. If we have to wait three minutes when we could have slid through, we're going to be pissed.


Yes, please, pedestrian, continue to crawl across the crosswalk.

If we were in Germany (where the car has the right-away) we would honestly be in heaven.


If this school bus stays in front of me the entire morning, I am going to kill myself.

There is truly nothing worse than being stuck behind a school bus for five miles.


God, I love my horn.

We are awfully fond of our loud and aggressive horns. It works as a frustration outlet for us and we tend to use them more than the average driver.


It’s JUST rain, do we really need to drive two miles per hour?

We get it if it’s a torrential downpour, but does a sprinkle really call for a complete freeway system breakdown?

Today I started my third week of college at Minnesota State Moorhead. I have survived welcome week, finding my classes on the first day, and being an awkward loner in the dining hall. Even though I have yet to be here for a month, I have already experienced many thoughts and problems that only a new college student can relate to.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.

For a moment your world is spinning. The phone alarm has just scared you awake and you’re flooded by daunting thoughts of the day ahead. You have three assignments due and little time to work on them because of your job. You’re running late because you’ve hit snooze one to many times after yesterday’s long hours. You dizzily reach for a hoodie, craving its comfort, and rush for a speedy exit, praying you will have time to pick up coffee. Does this sound familiar?

Finals week is upon us. It is a magical time of year during which college students everywhere flock to the library in attempt to learn a semester's worth of knowledge in only a week.

Others have slaved away many nights under the fluorescent lights, and are slightly annoyed to find their study space being invaded by amateurs. While these newbies wander aimlessly around the first floor, hopelessly trying to find a table, the OGs of the library are already on the third floor long tables deep into their studies. Here is a few signs that you may live in the library, whether you'd like to admit it or not.
