15 Best SNL Skits

We all love Saturday Night Live — it's just a fact of being American. But some skits are better than others. Below is a countdown of some of the best SNL skits, starting with:

15. Brother 2 Brother

Twin antics gone horribly wrong, featuring the forced acting styles so often showcased on Disney Channel.

14. Uber For Jen

Straight out of our worst Uber nightmares.

13. Celebrity Family Feud: Political Edition

A little too relevant right now with the fallout from election season, but still funny nonetheless.

12. Birthday Party

Aren't we all Melanie, in a way?

11. Match'd

Trash TV meets trashier men. Basically what MTV is actually going to look like in ten years.

10. Teacher Trial

I can't really explain this one without doing it a disservice — if you have a sense of humor, you'll think it's funny.

9. Brunch

A needy and not subtle Chris Hemsworth seeks validation from a group of women getting brunch. How is it that he manages to look as hunky as usual even while pretending to be a woman?

8. New Girlfriend

You know it's a good skit when the actors break character to laugh. Fred Armisen as the "new girlfriend" is one of the funniest things you will ever watch.

7. Naked & Afraid: Celebrity Edition

Enough people love Naked & Afraid already, but add a ridiculous celebrity duo to the mix and you have comedy gold.

6. I Am Your Mother

An actress who just doesn't get it meets a frustrated Zac Efron and it is everything you could have ever hoped for.

5. Delta Flight

Okay, I'm biased toward this one because of Amy Schumer. I'll admit it's ridiculous, but there's just something so funny about the phrase: I WAS OUTSIDE THE PLANE!!!

4. Drake's Beef

Do you love Drake? Are you passive aggressive AF? This skit is for you. I identify with this on a whole other level.

3. High School Theatre Show

We all know these people because we all were these people, and now we love to hate them. Bring back the cringe-y memories with this skit!

2. Meet Your Second Wife

Tina Fey? Check. Amy Poehler? Check. A ridiculous game show that could only end in disaster for everyone involved? Check.

1. Haunted Elevator

This will forever be my favorite SNL skit. What's not to love about Tom Cruise, David S. Pumpkins, and dancing skeletons that are somehow "part of it?" 100 stars.

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.

8 Easy Ways to Get Involved in College

It's easier than you think.

"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. For some students, it's their first time in the library all semester, maybe ever. 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.
