14 Things That Are More Offensive Than The 2016 Election

AEIC

In case you've been living under a rock, things are pretty tense in the United States right now. If that still doesn't ring a bell for you, I'll help you out. Donald Trump is going to be our new president and lots of people are offended by it. Family members are unfriending each other on Facebook because they voted for Donald Trump, people are rioting because they wanted Hillary Clinton to win, and social media is a war zone. Do not enter unless you want to get fired up and, you guessed it, offended.

I'm tired of people getting so offended by this election though. What can you possibly change at this point? Donald Trump is our president. Is he the greatest candidate ever? Absolutely not. Will he do a wonderful job? I don't know. I just don't want to argue anymore, so it's time to get everyone's mind off of it. Here are a few things that are more offensive than the 2016 election.

1. People that put ketchup all over their fries instead of neatly on the side.

2. The word "moist."

3. When Netflix asks if you're still watching.

It might as well change the message to "are you really still sitting on the couch? You've watched 33 episodes now."

4. Thin crust pizza.

5. These new, terrible episodes of Toddlers and Tiaras.

6. Turning off your Find Friends dot.

You hiding something?

7. When people spell "definitely" as "defiantly."

8. People that ask to speak to your manager so your manager can tell them the same thing you just told them.

9. Snapchat conversations.

I forgot what I said.

10. People that pour milk before the cereal.

11. Crocs.

12. Twitter killing Vine.

13. Waking up two minutes before your alarm is supposed to go off.

This is enough to ruin my day. Don't test me.

14. Hating people for their opinions.

Seriously guys, you can't hate someone for exercising their constitutional right to have a freedom and to vote for who they want. Bring back the Facebook peace; I'm begging you.

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.

December... it's full of finals, due dates, Mariah Carey, and the holidays. It's the worst time of the year, but the best because after finals, you get to not think about classes for a month and catch up on all the sleep you lost throughout the semester. But what's worse than finals week is the last week of classes, when all the due dates you've put off can no longer be put off anymore.

University of Vermont

Thanksgiving break is over and Christmas is just around the corner and that means, for most college students, one hellish thing — finals week. It's the one time of year in which the library becomes over populated and mental breakdowns are most frequent. There is no way to avoid it or a cure for the pain that it brings. All we can do is hunker down with our books, order some Dominos, and pray that it will all be over soon. Luckily, we are not alone in this suffering. To prove it, here are just a few of the many deranged thoughts that go through a college student's mind during finals week.

I know every college student has daily thoughts throughout their day. Whether you're walking on campus or attending class, we always have thoughts running a mile a minute through our heads. We may be wondering why we even showed up to class because we'd rather be sleeping, or when the professor announces that we have a test and you have an immediate panic attack.
