Professors... Just stop. Most professors think they are the bomb when they're actually not. Us students, try to make our learning experiences a little more bearable sometimes, but, there are just some professors that seem to make that a little impossible. I don't get how simple things are so hard for them to do. Its basics people. So here are a few things that professors do that really annoy most students if not every student.

1. When they are late.

I'm not even gonna' get started with this one.

2. When they miss class and don't send you an email previous to the class to warn you.

You know, It's not that hard to write an email and send it... Thank you for wasting our time.


3. When they don't use the class hours to explain the material.

The GIF pretty much sums up the feeling.


4. When they think they know it all and they think you don't know half of the things they do.

I know we are there to learn from you, but we are not idiots either. Shout out to half of my professors... #sorrynotsorry


5. When they try to intimidate you because apparently “they have power and you don't.”

Actually, you don't have more power than us, but, if that helps you sleep at night...


6. When the class is over but they keep you in class because apparently “they can and they will.”

I really despite you... As if 1 hour and a half wasn't enough.


7. When they all complot against students and they all give exams for the same day or week.

The feels man... The feels...


8. When they give you homework and never end up collecting it even though you spent all night doing it.

Yes! Alright. I just wasted my sleeping hours for nothing. OK.


9. When they make you study something very different to what actually comes on the exam.

I think you guys like to make us panic and feel unprepared.


10. When you ask a question that they don't know the answer to so they ignore you.

Aren't you suppose to be there to answer questions? When did I get lost?


11. When they get mad because you asked the same question several times because you don't understand their answer.

If I need to be explained 5 times or more, you explain 5 times or more. Isn't that your job?


12. When they talk with fancy, pretty sure, invented words to confuse students.

I'm almost sure some professors invent fancy words just to look superior...


13. When they don't let you use the cellphone in class but they do.

As well as I get distracted using my phone, I get distracted if you're using your phone. So, how about the same rules apply to everyone?


14. When they mess with your grades.

This particularly happens when they don't like you. They subtract points for everything. They even subtract points when the essay is well written, its just that simply, they don't like you. Shout out Prof... Better not.

15. When they read the Power Point.

Please don't... Just don't. Originality never hurt nobody.

If I have learned one thing in my lifetime, it is that friends are a privilege. No one is required to give you their company and yet there is some sort of shared connection that keeps you together. And from that friendship, you may even find yourself lucky enough to have a few more friends, thus forming a group. Here are just a few signs that prove your current friend group is the ultimate friend group.

When it comes to television, there’s very few sets of on-screen siblings that a lot of us can relate to. Only those who have grown up with siblings knows what it feels like to fight, prank, and love a sibling. Ross and Monica Geller were definitely overbearing and overshared some things through the series of "Friends," but they captured perfectly what real siblings feel in real life. Some of their antics were funny, some were a little weird but all of them are completely relatable to brothers and sisters everywhere.

1. The Legacy.

Her sister was a member, her mom was a member, all of her aunts were members, and her grandma was a member. She has been waiting her whole life to wear these letters and cried hysterically on bid day. Although she can act entitled at times, you can bet she is one of the most enthusiastic sisters.

Every kid in college and/or high school dreams of summer the moment they walk through the door on the first day back in September.
