15 Things Better Than A Trump Presidency

You're from a very liberal college, you voted for Hillary, you totally thought she'd win because you know, she killed the debates, and was leading in the polls by a comfortable amount prior to the election. Then suddenly, rural areas decided to vote more than they usually do, and you realize that the America you once thought you lived in appears to all be a lie. To help convey your feelings right now, here's a list of things that you would much rather have as compared to a Trump Presidency.

1. Being hit by a meteor

Remember when that whole like "end of the world" thing was going to happen in 2012? Like can we get that now? There are so many asteroids in the planet like one of them needs to spare us.

2. Return of the Black Plague

Ok, like we all learned in grade school about this thing that can really be solved by just washing your hands or something. But like a disease that kills between 30% and 60% of the world's population? Please sign me up.

3. Getting attacked by wild chimps


Ok so apparently chimps can get crazy. Throw me at them. I am more than willing to "get lost" in a jungle somewhere and just get like taken over. Or like, go to any random zoo (let's just pick the Cincinnati one for example) and "fall" into the Gorilla exhibit, and get dragged semi violently through the water (RIP Harambe).

4. Syphilis

Literally an STD that can cause blindness apparently? I'm totally down. Like I'm all for the public ridicule and shame and probably lack of sex partners.

5. Jumping off the Golden Gate Bridge

The view is apparently great. It's iconic, like who wouldn't want to go out in an iconic way? Plus it's like 746 feet tall so if you want to get off this earth ASAP what's a better way to go?

6. Going out with Chad from Biology

You know exactly who I'm talking about. That creepy guys who you always catch staring at you and probably picks his nose and somehow got your number and is constantly asking for nudes. He's the worst. But he's better than Trump.

7. Biting your pinkie finger off like a baby carrot

Apparently this is a thing??? Like supposedly your brain won't let you bite off your own but you can bite off others??? Idk, biting off your own would be a lot better.

8. Alien Takeover

Oh my god I know the government has been hiding this from us. I waiting for Trump to expose all of the secrets and to have the aliens be all like "well now we gotta destroy their planet."

9. The eternal burning in Hell

There's 9 layers and I will take every single one of them before Trump. Let's get real, I'm going there anyway, I might as well start early.

10. Entering the void

There's nothing worse than the absence of everything. Well, Trump is worse but like you get my point. I'd rather feel the constant emptiness in my soul than hear Trump say "Gina" when he's trying to say "China".

11. A sweating, panting, leather daddy

Yes, this is a Cards Against Humanity card, but like I'll take it. I'm imagining a really gross like 60 year old hitting on me, a 19 year old, and then dressing in some weird leather straps get up and like sweating all over me and panting like he's going to have a heart attack any minute. I'm uncomfortable writing that sentence. But it's still better than trump.

12. Electing the Zodiac Killer


Ted Cruz plz come save us.

13. Being burned at the stake like a Salem Witch

Coven was my favorite season of American Horror Story so at least I'd be like somewhat ok with it? I don't have supernatural powers, so that's a bummer. But let's get real, if I did have supernatural powers, Trump wouldn't be president in the first place.

14. A legitimate talking cheeto as our president

I'm imagining like a giant cheeto with creepy eyes and a mouth photoshopped onto it much like the annoying orange thing that was a huge internet meme in like 2011 (were memes a thing then?). I mean that's basically what we have when we elected Trump, the only difference is he's not a mediocre snack.

15. Alcohol

Not that I have EVER consumed any sort of alcoholic beverage EVER in my life.... But if I have it was multiple shots on both election night and the night afterwards and it made it like somewhat bearable (Drink responsibly).

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.

winter

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.
