16 Reasons Why Dogs Are Actually The Worst
Samantha May

As being a parent or sibling to the fluffy little/big animal that is your family, I think we can all agree why dogs are the worst and heres why.

1. They're the first thing you wake up to.

As you're waking up to your alarm blaring first thing in the morning, a few things can occur as you're starting your day.

1.) You cannot move due to the weight of your bed buddy by your feet or between your legs.

2.) The'yre directly by your side and refuse to let you turn over to get out of the bed.

3.) They're the actual reason you're awake either due to needing breakfast at some ridiculous hour, to go outside OR because they did not make it outside and left a present for you on the living room floor.

2. You can't do laundry.

As you're about to throw your clothes into the wash, you look to find that they're crawled up and made them selves comfortable in the basket.

3. They're always in your business.

As you're creeping on people from high school on Facebook, they're always there to see what you're doing.

4. You can't (attempt) to exercise.

You feel motivated enough to try to do something to improve yourself, maybe some cardio or yoga, but they're always there judging you.

5. They're backseat drivers.


when you're minding your own business, but they keep 'barking' (awful pun intended) directions and your driving skills.

6. Then when you don't listen, they give you dirty looks.

7. They're constantly complaining about something.

pictured here, he is throwing a fit because he thinks he's not getting enough attention.

8. Packing is extra difficult.

If leaving for school/trip isn't difficult enough as it is, they tend to take up more space attempting to come with you.

9.Your parent(s) treat them more like their own children than you.

no really...

11. They like to get into your things.

You can't even go out to the pool without them stealing your sunglasses and the last raft.

12. They think they're funny.

...you're not fooling anyone, we all know thats a wig.

13. They hog the bed.

I'm glad you guys like the bed, but now there's no room for me.

14. They constantly want to play with you.

as much as I would like to bud, I'm busy writing an article.

15. You can't eat in peace.

Even after you're done with you're meal, they still just stare at you, hoping for your plate.

16. They're so cute, you can't say no.


All sarcasm aside, without all of these little (big) guys in my life, it wouldn't be complete. I hope you can relate to all the things my dogs do, because if you're a dog lover like me, I'm sure you can.

At these functions, there are usually at least two rockers and boxers and an umpteenth amount of dogs and frogs. I have come up with a list of creative and unique ideas for these functions.

If you like what you see, get a shopping cart going with these costumes.

Epic Creation Myths: Norse Origins Unveiled

What happened in the beginning, and how the heavens were set in motion.

The Norse Creation Myth

Now, I have the everlasting joy of explaining the Norse creation myth. To be honest, it can be a bit kooky, so talking about it is always fun. The entire cosmos is included in this creation myth, not just the earth but the sun and the moon as well. This will be a short retelling, a summary of the creation myth, somewhat like I did with Hermod's ride to Hel.

We all scroll through the radio stations in the car every once in a while, whether its because we lost signal to our favorite one or we are just bored with the same ol' songs every day. You know when you're going through and you hear a song where you're just like "I forgot this existed!" and before you know it, you're singing every word? Yeah, me too. Like, 95% of the time. If you're like me and LOVE some good throwback music, here's a list of songs from every genre that have gotten lost in time, but never truly forgotten.
