25 Thoughts You Have When Taking An Uber

Most college students will agree that Uber is a lifesaver when it comes to getting kids safely from point A to point B in a timely fashion. The app comes in handy especially when the school shuttles do not drop students off in front of their favorite nightclubs or off-campus house parties. While some Uber excursions are more eventful than others, here are thoughts that every Uber passenger has experienced before, during and after their ride.

1. Who is coming in my Uber?


2. What type of Uber should we take?

I'm a broke college kid... I cannot afford the luxuries of an UberBLACK! Although, it would be nice to roll up to a house party in a Rolls-Royce or Porsche...

3. Everyone better have the Uber app downloaded and be ready to split the fare.

4. I hate the moochers who give every excuse not to split the fare... I am just as broke as you are!

5. Why are the Ubers so far away... doesn't anyone stay in nowadays?

6. These surge prices are ridiculous.

7. Are all these people going to the same destination as me?

8. What are the odds my driver is foreign?

1 in 2...

9. Will our driver notice if we squeeze an extra person or two in our Uber?

10. Other students better not steal our Uber... it's like a shark tank out here!

11. I wonder if our driver has an aux cord?

12. If he/she wants that five-star rating, they better hand the aux cord over.

13. I love the Uber drivers who provide juice boxes and snacks for their customers.

14. Some of these drivers frighten me.

15. Is Uber safe?

16. Are we going to get kidnapped?

17. Well, it's too late to turn back now...

18. Uber drivers are either super talkative or silent. There's no in between.

Either way, a car ride alone with an Uber driver is 100 percent awkward.

19. It grinds my gears when people pronounce the app as "yoober" instead of "oober"

20. I swear if anyone throws up in the Uber, they're paying for it... I do not have $200 to waste on the poor decisions of other people

21. How many laws is this Uber driver breaking?

22. Thank God we made it to our destination safely

23. Don't worry, Uber driver, regardless of how strange our conversations were and how many rules of the road were broken, you will basically always get a five-star rating from us college kids because we will forget to fill out the star rating until the next time we are in a rush trying to find an Uber.


24. How do I become an Uber driver?

25. ...Yep, I'll be Ubering home, too!

I've been at this college thing for almost three and a half years, and while I thought that high school was truly the lowest point of my existence, I'm beginning to realize that it was a walk in the park. Like, I miss the days when the biggest white lie I told my parents was my made up excuse about being late for fourth period. These days, the white lies are a tad more complex, and as ashamed as I am to admit it, I've definitely told a few of these.

As most of us already know, Friends is one of the greatest television series ever produced. The cast is genius. The humor never gets old. The episodes are relatable and timeless.

I can easily say that I have watched each season at least three times and I belly laugh harder every time. All Friends fans can agree that there are certain lines that form a bond between us and when heard one cannot help but laugh.

The infamous RBF is something I have and am known for. It’s kind of exhausting to be asked if you're okay all the time or being told to smile more. Girls with RBF get judged to be mean and rude much quicker than the girl who is always smiling. It’s true and just plain natural for someone who is generally smiling all the time to come off as more trustworthy and I've gotten used to it. I used to think that having a Resting Bitch Face was only a bad thing until I realized that just like anything else, it also has its perks. Having a permafrown with a piercing look comes with great power.

Parks and Rec
IndieWire

We all know that Parks and Recreation is one of the greatest shows ever to air on TV. As we watched every episode, we all found a piece of us in each character (even Jerry). From the moment we met the pit, to the time we saw it flourish into a beautiful park, we all had developed a little bit of Pawnee, Indiana in our hearts.
