26 Signs You Go To Oklahoma State University

Whether you're currently a student or alumni, Oklahoma State University holds a special place in our hearts, along with some experiences we all go through. There's always something going on that's shaking up Stillwater.

1. You've always wanted to be a Paddle Person.

Two hundred and fifty paddles. 12 Football Games. One hyped football season.

2. You have an endless supply of Eskimo Joe's cups.

And Eskimo Joe's T-shirts.

3. You've experience cardiac arrest multiple times during the second half of a game.

We put the "second-half" into the "second-half team"

4. Thanksgiving means Bedlam.

Plus, who can make the best comebacks during dinner.

5. And you're thankful you're not a Sooner.

6. You've experienced the long lines of the Student Union.

7. And learned Tapingo is your best friend.

Now since they expanded their delivery options, there's no reason to put on pants for food.

8. You're obsessed with the campus year-round.

The perfect balance between seasons.

9. You love Homecoming.

Walk-around, Homecoming and Hoops, Homecoming parade, and the busiest weekend of the year.

10. You've slaved over pomping hours to get the decks perfected.

Twelve hours of straight pomping in one day? No big deal...

11. Freshman Follies, Varsity Revue, and Spring Sing are a big deal, whether you're in a house or not.

Freshman Follies is well worth the cheesing and long practices.

12. You say "Go Pokes" whether you're in a good or bad situation.

"Got an A on a test? Go pokes!" "Currently losing a football game? Go pokes!"

13. You know about the tuition myth and always wanted to test it out.

P.S. it's false so please do not be like Regina George and get hit by one.

14. You've had the struggle of finding a parking space.

No matter how hard you try, finding a parking spot is nearly impossible.

15. You use any excuse to throw up your guns.

16. You've gotten free pancakes during finals week with Matt Fletcher.

You're the real MVP, Matt.

17. You've gone to any of the three Aspen Coffee locations for a study date

18. You know J.W. Walsh, Rudolph, Gundy, and Pistol Pete are our homeboys.

Ain't nobody messing with my clique.

19. You've gone through the barn at least once.

Whether you're 21 or under, there's a drink for everyone.

20. Dirty Curty's are the midnight munchies.

Whether its Qdoba, Whataburger, or Dirty Curty's, the midnight munchies are always spot on.

21. You would do anything for free food or T-shirts.

It doesn't matter if you're related to the organization or not, you will take ANYTHING.

22. Rawhide and Calf Fry are the go-to concerts at Tumbleweed.

T-Pain knows how to throw a party. Just saying.

23. You blast the OSU Alma Mater when you travel through Norman.

24. You will always Remember the 10.

Through thick and thin, the Cowboy family is always the definition of a family with unconditional love.

25. If it has black, white, and orange on it, you will buy it.

26. If you tell them the Cowboys are coming, just know hell is coming with us.

There's only one state, and that's Oklahoma State University.

10 Reasons To Thank Your Best Friend

Take the time to thank that one friend in your life you will never let go of.

Thank You on wooden blocks

1. Thank you for being the one I can always count on to be honest.

A true friend will tell you if the shirt is ugly, or at least ask to borrow it and "accidentally" burn it.

2. Thank you for accepting me for who I am.

A best friend will love you regardless of the stale french fries you left on the floor of your car, or when you had lice in 8th grade and no one wanted to talk to you.

Do as I say, not as I do.

Your eyes widen in horror as you stare at your phone. Beads of sweat begin to saturate your palm as your fingers tremble in fear. The illuminated screen reads, "Missed Call: Mom."

Growing up with strict parents, you learn that a few things go unsaid. Manners are everything. Never talk back. Do as you're told without question. Most importantly, you develop a system and catch on to these quirks that strict parents have so that you can play their game and do what you want.

"Friends" maybe didn’t have everything right or realistic all the time, but they did have enough episodes to create countless reaction GIFs and enough awesomeness to create, well, the legacy they did. Something else that is timeless, a little rough, but memorable? Living away from the comforts of home. Whether you have an apartment, a dorm, your first house, or some sort of residence that is not the house you grew up in, I’m sure you can relate to most of these!
