It is universally accepted that this political season was a mess.

We are all beyond over it. So now that it is now out of our control, let's stop the Facebook rants and get back to the things we all know and love. Here are 27 things I'd rather do than talk, think or write about politics.

1. Watch paint dry

2. Watch every documentary on Netflix, Hulu, and Amazon Prime

3. Clean up a park

4. Completely cover someone's car in post-it notes

5. Fill out all the immigration paperwork for Canada

6. Learn to cook a duck

7. Help retirees learn to tweet

8. Take up geocaching

9. Watch every rom-com I own, twice

10. Re-read old textbooks (or read them for the first time)

11. Watch infomercials

12. Start a blog about how much I love pickles

13. Read the Jane Austen collected works, over and over again

14. Sort laundry for my entire apartment complex

15. Start a pooper scooper business

Okay so maybe I've made my point, I would literally rather do ANYTHING else other than keep talking thinking or even breathing about anything even possibly politically related. I know it's important, but this year everyone has really gotten out of hand. So here are 13 more, less torturous things I'd rather do than talk, think, or write about politics.

16. Learn one amazing recipe from Chef Gordon Ramsey

17. Make some super cool Christmas decor

18. Color in the array of super cool adult coloring books

19. Catch up with Grey's Anatomy (2 more seasons to go!)

20. Make some homemade dog treats

21. Harry Potter Marathon, duh.

22. Google random google searches

23. Plan a super cool vacation that I'll never go on (Bora-Bora here I come!)

24. Go window shopping at the mall

25. Listen to a new playlist on Spotify

26. Arrange a book swap

27. Thank God that the election is over, and work on bringing all my friends back together

How else will I survive the countless hours of class time that I will be surfing the web during?!?!

Let's all just go back to regularly scheduled insta posts, funny tweets, and hilarious memes shall we? Also, we all need to know what you made for dinner, so don't forget to post that too, thanks!

If I have learned one thing in my lifetime, it is that friends are a privilege. No one is required to give you their company and yet there is some sort of shared connection that keeps you together. And from that friendship, you may even find yourself lucky enough to have a few more friends, thus forming a group. Here are just a few signs that prove your current friend group is the ultimate friend group.

When it comes to television, there’s very few sets of on-screen siblings that a lot of us can relate to. Only those who have grown up with siblings knows what it feels like to fight, prank, and love a sibling. Ross and Monica Geller were definitely overbearing and overshared some things through the series of "Friends," but they captured perfectly what real siblings feel in real life. Some of their antics were funny, some were a little weird but all of them are completely relatable to brothers and sisters everywhere.

1. The Legacy.

Her sister was a member, her mom was a member, all of her aunts were members, and her grandma was a member. She has been waiting her whole life to wear these letters and cried hysterically on bid day. Although she can act entitled at times, you can bet she is one of the most enthusiastic sisters.
