Uncommonly known as Rupert Grint, Ronald Bilius Weasley is a member of a supposedly made up magical community, but outside of the wizarding world, he has been in a variety of well-known movies. Although you've probably seen most of these movies, you likely had no clue that your favorite ginger warlock starred in them.

1. "Star Wars: The Force Awakens" General Hux


If you thought the Harry Potter movies would be the only quality endeavor ole' Rupey would ever take on in his lifetime, think again. His role as General Hux was executed perfectly. The contrast between a diabolical space general and a clumsy goofball sidekick really shows the range of characters that Grint can portray. Brilliant!

2. "Austin Powers" Scott Evil


Grint played it safe with this role as the ne'er-do-well son of the global-domination obsessed villain, Dr. Evil. It wasn't a huge leap from his actual personality as a dullish, tortured adolescent, but there were a lot of great laughs because of Scotty so I give Grint two thumbs up.

3. "American Pie" The Sherminator


I never really enjoyed this raunch-fest but you have to hand it to Grint, he really has mastered the role of being the least desirable friend in the friend group.

4. "Halloween 1997 Home Video" My Buddy Dan Blattner

This was a very interesting choice for Grint. I had never heard of an actor starring in a family's home video before. My good friend Dan was always shy as a child, you wouldn't know it looking at him now, especially if you have him on Snapchat (shy is the last word I would describe his Snapchat behavior). But I understand how he might not want to star in his own family video. It's a good thing Grint wasn't in a position to turn down roles at the time.

5. "Child's Play" Chucky


Many people thought that an actor could never be talented enough to play an actual toy doll in a movie, but with the right wax artists and some clever camera play, Grint pulled it off. And he was the first one to ever do it.

You have to hand it to Rupey, these are only five of the thousands of movies he has blessed with his presence. Below is a picture of Grint looking for an acting role he wouldn't be bloody brilliant at:

I think the hardest thing about going away to college is figuring out how to become an adult. Leaving a household where your parents took care of literally everything (thanks, Mom!) and suddenly becoming your own boss is overwhelming. I feel like I'm doing a pretty good job of being a grown-up, but once in awhile I do something that really makes me feel like I'm #adulting. Twenty-somethings know what I'm talking about.

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!
