8 Reasons Why Nolan Ross Is The Ultimate Bestie

If you've ever seen an episode of ABC's "Revenge," it's no secret that Nolan Ross is Emily Thorne's BFF. A flamboyant BFF with a large house (and an even larger bank account) can really come in handy. Private jets and invites to exclusive Hamptons parties aside, Nolan Ross has undeniable qualities of a true bestie.

1. He'll stick by your side - even if you threaten to crush his windpipe!

Emily wasn't too fond of the idea of a partner in her game of revenge - so much so that she actually threatened to hurt him if he didn't back off. But Nolan wouldn't take 'no' for an answer. He was committed to Emily's cause and in the process picked up a friend for life, a clearly enviable relationship. Nolan will be the macaroni to your cheese; the sizzle to your steak; your partner in crime - literally!

2. He's irreplaceable.

Many have tried (and failed) to be the nation's next computer genius, a.k.a. the next Nolan Ross. Really, though, how many people can say that their best friend was able to design and plant a chip inside a seemingly innocent bracelet that can wipe any super computer in a nanosecond? Stylish and dangerous. You don't see that every day.

3. He's deep.


Nolan kept files of all his (mis)adventures in mayhem with Emily. Those folders proved their hand in just about every illegal activity you could imagine, including Emily's charades as an agent from Homeland Security. However risky, this was Nolan's idea of a memento - a little something he could remember the time the pair spent together because for once he felt like his life had a little meaning. Sure, most BFFs would just make each other friendship bracelets or something, but then again Nolan isn't most BFFs!

4. He's the life of your lavish Hamptons' soiree.

Any resident of the Hamptons knows that Nolan Ross can't stay away from a good party, or maybe a good party can't stay away from Nolan Ross! You can expect a night of top notch fun (and possibly scandal) if you're within a 100-foot radius of Mr. Ross. You're lacking in the friendship department if you don't have someone who can turn that frown upside down. Besides, "every queen of the Hamptons needs a jester" and Nolan will always happily oblige.

5. He has an arsenal of hilariously cynical puns.

Nolan has some cut-throat comebacks for every occasion, and you can actually feel the third degree! He's a master at masking his mockery with obnoxiously crude politeness. You've got the best seat in the house to Nolan's witty tongue. There will never be a dull moment so long as Nolan spices it all up with a little sass - don't worry, he has enough for both of you!

6. He can smell a double-crossing rat a mile away.

You mess with the bull, you get the horns. You mess with the Nolan, you get your phone programmed to factory reset without him even lifting a finger. All those two-faced amateurs don't stand a chance against Nolan's intellect. He can basically sense a trap coming and jump three steps ahead of your phony frenemies. This bestie is basically a superhero.

7. He'll take a knife to the hand for you any day.

Okay, he basically passes the best friend test with flying colors for this one. Mr. Ross is no stranger to danger, considering the many risks he's taken for Emily Thorne. He may not have the hand-eye coordination to catch a grenade for you, but you can still be certain that he'll put his life on the line for you - even when it comes to savvy hit women.

8. He's also a master at guilt-tripping your enemies.

Be honest. The only thing that's (possibly) better than you feeling great is your enemies feeling like crap. You can rest assured that Nolan Ross will personally hand-deliver that slap in the face to the ones at the very bottom of your list of fans. He's literally the best bestie anyone could ask for.

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.
