5 Reasons You Should Love Chris Evans

"He laughs at himself all the time and shows people it's okay to be a complete dork while also taking your job seriously."

5 Reasons You Should Love Chris Evans

Chris Evans is one of my all-time favorite people. No, I have not met him and based on the way my life goes I probably will not ever meet him (sad face). But he's still one of my favorite people. And this is either because I have fallen victim to some incredible PR and celebrity image management, or because he's simply a great and relatable human. I'm really hoping it's the second of those two options.

Anyway, here are five reasons that should make you like him at least a little bit, too:

1. He Loves Disney

He loves Disney so much. You honestly just have to witness (watch his interviews on YouTube) it to understand. You can watch this short interview to see just a little bit of his love for all things Disney or risk diving into the depths of Tumblr and YouTube to find all of the incredibly entertaining interviews where Chris expresses his love.

2. He's A "Serious Actor"

Chelsea Handler invited some of the cast members of "Captain America: Civil War" to a dinner-interview-event-thing and she asked Chris if he "takes acting seriously." You can see his response at about 0:13 in this video. The point of this isn't to make it seem like Chris doesn't take his job seriously because I don't think that's the case at all. The point is to show that he has fun doing something he enjoys. He laughs at himself all the time and shows people it's okay to be a complete dork while also taking your job seriously.

3. He Actually Cares About Raising Awareness

Before he followed through with his 22 Push-Up Challenge, he explains why he's doing it and why it's important which a lot of people don't care to do. He accepts things like this and the ALS Ice Bucket Challenge and talks about climate change and other things while also donating and raising awareness for these important issues. (Bonus: You can see Chris with his dog in the Push- Up Challenge video and with his family in the Ice Bucket Challenge video. How precious.)

4. He Hates Spiders, Too

He gives quite the explanation in this interview, but I have to say he's not wrong. It's refreshing to see celebrities and people we see in the media acting like normal humans and being able to relate to them, even if it's something as simple as disliking the same things. It's good to be reminded that they're just like us except that more people know things about them. Just hope that you're not the one who has to take care of a spider if one were to be around the two of you while you're together.

5. He's Just Plain Goofy

He's actually hilarious. And his humor and personality come out in ways and at times you don't really expect it to. I went ahead and gathered some examples for you. You're welcome.

He's funny and goofy and I like it. That's all there is to it.

Bonus: He calls himself a meatball

And even if all of these reasons are just what his PR team wants us to see, it's working and I'm only going to be a little bit upset with the fact that I fell for it.

(I give you permission to judge me for writing this article and for taking the time to sort through gifs on Google and Tumblr. I'm judging me, too, so it's okay.)

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.
