For the past 17 season we have been graced with one of the best TV drama's in history, Law and Order: Special Victims Unit. Every fan feels an attachment to one of the main characters, to the victims, or to the story line. You are a fanatic, you are what keeps this the longest Law and Order show running.

1. You know the intro by heart.

2. You can tell the which season it is based off Mariska's haircut.

3. You say Dun-Dun every time.

Did you just DUN-DUN in your head? It's okay so did I.

4. You try to see if an episode is dated on your birthday.

(or is that just me?)

5. You have a favorite D.A. and a least favorite Defense Lawyer.

Mine is Cabot and Buchanan

6. You have to figure out where you have seen that guest star before.

7. You get excited when you recognize a guest star in their pre-fame/post-fame days.

8. You can recognize which real story the episode is "not based on".

We all knew that Hilary Duff's episode was based off of Casey Anthony.

9. You know that if the case if solved half way through, that there will be a big discovery, a long trial, or the wrong perp.

10. You have yet to forgive Christopher Meloni for leaving.

It's not the same without Stabler

11. You're upset Benson has yet to keep a partner since Stabler.

12. You hoped that Stabler would be the one to find Liv when Lewis kidnapped her.

You know if he was still on the show that he would have been out there searching everywhere for her and would have killed Lewis.

13. You wanted to grow up and be exactly like one of the Main characters.

My dream is to become Dr. Huang.

14. It feels like a different SVU with out Stabler, Munch, and Cragen.

I like the new detectives, but you can't beat the originals.

15. Your friend goal is to find the Benson to your Stabler

16. You wanted this to be real

17. You know the show will have to eventually end, and also hope Netflix takes over.

Also can they add back seasons 1-12 to Netflix?

The Daily Struggles of Being a College Commuter

morethanwheels

I've been in college for four years now. I spent half my time as a commuter and half as a resident so I've experienced both sides of the housing spectrum. One thing I've learned comparing the two is that my struggles as a commuter far outweigh anything I went through while living on campus. Commuters have to deal with the problems school brings along with a slew of other issues; I've filled up my gas tank in the worst kind of weather conditions and napped in random places in public more times than I'm proud to say of. This is a list of some of the most challenging aspects of being a commuter.

It's not all morning coffees and singing along to the radio.

You can't just go to your room to take a nap in the middle of your classes.

Having to spend all your extra cash on gas for your car.

Speaking of money, you probably don't have a meal plan so you're forced to scrounge up some change or mooch off of your friends.

It can be harder to maintain the friendships you make with people from class.

Finding a parking spot.

It can be harder to be involved on campus because between your one, two, or three jobs and school you don't have much free time.

When you try to be super involved on campus, it can kill your sleep schedule.

It's impossible to do homework at home, but staying on campus isn't an option sometimes.

There are surveys and events that you can't participate in because you're a commuter.

Group projects are the bane of your existence.

Traffic.

Your backpack rivals that of a survivalist trekking in the woods.

Driving all the way to campus to find a note on the door of your classroom saying class was cancelled.

Because have you ever had to endure grilling your foot on a George Foreman?

1. When he just wanted bacon from his George Foreman grill

2. When he had money (and Jan) issues

3. When he got upstaged at Phyllis' wedding

4. When he unintentionally saved Meredith from rabies

5. When he wore a "bisexual" suit

6. When he had to apologize to Jesus

7. When his GPS drove him into a lake

8. When he had to deal with Ryan as his boss

9. When he couldn't fulfill his most generous empty promise

10. When this happened

11. When he struggled with a X-Mas break up

12. When he had to defend his generosity

13. When he threw a classy Christmas party for Holly but she had a boyfriend

14. When he had to stand up to peer pressure

15. When Toby was "Toby-ish"
