20 Things Only People Who Excessively Sweat Understand

Everyone sweats, but while some people will produce one bead of sweat on their forehead while running a marathon, others can fill a large bucket of sweat while sitting in the shade watching that marathon. This article is for the bucket-fillers of the world, the people who sweat nonstop. For those of us who can produce sweat in places some never knew possible, here are 20 things that only people who excessively sweat can understand:

1. Your outfits/makeup/hair get ruined before you even get to the party.

2. The inability to even raise your arms in public is all too real.

3. Your closet is full of all the dull colors, except for light grey and white... So basically just black.

4. Wearing layers is never worth it.

5. This happens way too often.

6. And even though these were created for people who write left-handed, your strongly considering getting one.

7. It looks like you are on the verge of death when you workout.

8. You sweat off antiperspirants before they have a chance to work.

9. Hand dryers are always go to sweat stain dryers.

10. Avoiding hand shakes like the plague, but if unavoidable, then casually drying your sweaty hands off on the nearest piece of cotton.

11. You're the only one who's excited for summer to end and winter to come.

12. You're embarrassed to admit some of the things you've used to try and help stop the sweating.

13. The feeling of peeling your sweaty thighs off the chair.

14. Swamp ass has eliminated the ability to wear any sort of fashionable colored shorts or pants.

15. You hate people who supposedly "don't sweat".

16. That nice, greasy shine to your face 24/7.

17. You have no clue how people can make sweating look sexy.

18. Fans are God's gift to us.

19. People probably think you have a cold because it looks like you are constantly wiping your nose, but really you're just wiping your lip sweat.

20. You're pretty positive your sweat is out to ruin your life.

We are the sweaters of the world. We sweat until our clothes are ruined and people begin to give us weird looks. It's what we're good at sweating, so it's what we do. There are times in your life where your sweating may seem like it has ruined everything, but once you've learned to accept it, it becomes a part of who you are. Who would I be without my clammy hand shakes and trips to the bathroom so I can sit under the hand dryer? So here's to the sweaty people of the world, may our sweat bring many more awkward encounters and dull colored clothing to our lives.

I went to a small high school, like 120-people-in-my-graduating-class small. It definitely had some good and some bad, and if you also went to a small high school, I’m sure you’ll relate to the things that I went through.

1. If something happens, everyone knows about it

Who hooked up with whom at the party? Yeah, heard about that an hour after it happened. You failed a test? Sorry, saw on Twitter last period. Facebook fight or, God forbid, real fight? It was on half the class’ Snapchat story half an hour ago. No matter what you do, someone will know about it.

Chandler Bing

I'm assuming that we've all heard of the hit 90's TV series, Friends, right? Who hasn't? Admittedly, I had pretty low expectations when I first started binge watching the show on Netflix, but I quickly became addicted.

Without a doubt, Chandler Bing is the most relatable character, and there isn't an episode where I don't find myself thinking, Yup, Iam definitely the Chandler of my friend group.

Working with the public can be a job, in and of itself. Some people are just plain rude for no reason. But regardless of how your day is going, always having to be in the best of moods, or at least act like it... right?

1. When a customer wants to return a product, hands you the receipt, where is printed "ALL SALES ARE FINAL" in all caps.

2. Just because you might be having a bad day, and you're in a crappy mood, doesn't make it okay for you to yell at me or be rude to me. I'm a person with feelings, just like you.

3. People refusing to be put on hold when a customer is standing right in front of you. Oh, how I wish I could just hang up on you!

Another day, another Elle Woods comment. Can’t us blondes get through the day without someone harping at us over the typical stereotypes about who we are? I never understood why a person was judged based upon the hair color they were born with, or the hair color they choose to have (unless you dye your hair blue like Kylie Jenner, I’m still trying to understand why that’s a trend). Nevertheless, as it should be assumed, not everyone is the same. Not all blondes like bright colors and Lilly Pulitzer, and not all blondes claim to identify with Marilyn Monroe. I think the best suggestion to give to people before they make such radical claims is to stop judging a book by its cover. Or in this case, stop judging a blonde by her hair color.
