9 Reasons Cats are the Worst

Cats suck, this is why.

9 Reasons Cats are the Worst

Cats are horrible. Everyone knows it. Even the crazy old cat lady at the end of the street knows that each and every one of her precious little fur babies are literally the worst. Please raise your hand if you've ever been personally victimized by a cat.

After years and years of research I've compiled a list of reasons that cats are the absolute worst.

1) They have no respect for your bathroom time. If the door is shut the cat wants in. Honestly it's hard to even pee without one of them sticking their tiny little paws under the door trying to claw their way in. Why do they want to get into the bathroom so much? Separation anxiety? Or are they trying to kill you?

2) They headbutt you every opportunity they get. You're calmly reading a book. They jump up on your lap all purrs and cuteness then BOOM cat head to the face. And suddenly you can't read anymore because the dang thing keeps ramming it's head at you trying to knock you out.

3) Cats don't respect human sleep schedules. They will wake you up by meowing, headbutting, and smacking you in the face numerous times if you aren't up in time for the morning feed.

4) Forget about reading a book or working on your computer when you have a cat. Cats are jealous creatures. You aren't allowed to come home smelling of another cat. You aren't allowed to be paying attention to something other than your cat. Ever.

5) They are very skilled fighters and we should all be very wary around them when they're angry. I've seen a cat after it's won a cat fight and it's brutal. Also, have you ever heard two cats fight? Horrible.

So, I found this gif and I thought it was entirely applicable because... Jedi cats. Come on guys. Please tell me Star Wars reenacted by cats would not be a completely awesome experience! And yes, they're totally the Sith lords of the animal kingdom.

6) While we're on the subject of cat fights let's talk about how cats are complete ninjas. Ever been sneak attacked by a rogue kitten in the middle of the night? Terrifying. Ever been trying to walk past a sleeping kitty only to be violently attacked narrowly escaping death? Cats are ninjas and it's terrifying.

7) They're so unbelievably adorable we will let them get away with anything. Seriously. I'd let my cat get away with murder if he flashed me the right look complete with a loud purr and an adorable kitty stretch.

8) They will steal your food. Now, cats are picky eaters. They aren't like dogs where they'll just eat anything. No, they have a very refined palate. However, once they sniff something that they want to consume no one can stop them from consuming their fine cuisine.

9) And finally cats are the absolute worst because they don't live forever and sooner or later you'll have to say goodbye to your best friend.

10 Thoughts Of A 5th Year Senior

What about those of us who don't do it all in four years?

"College will be the best four years of your life" is a phrase that we have all heard growing up. College is painted as a magical place to us while we are in high school. A place you go to learn, meet your best friends and probably have the time of your life while all of this is going down. Four whirlwind years, where everything that you've known changes and you start to learn what it means to live on your own, have a job, etc. But what about those of us who don't do this all in four years? Major changes, hard courses, switching schools, career paths changing, these are just a handful of factors that could extend your four years to five, six or seven. There is nothing wrong with taking extra time to graduate, but returning as a fifth-year is a little different. Most of your best friends have most likely graduated and moved and while you may be one of the oldest undergraduates on campus, you might feel as awkward as a freshmen. A world that became home and comfortable to you is still there but it's slightly different than you've known it to be and you have to find a groove to fall into. These are thoughts you'll have as you look ahead to returning to your college campus, with a victory lap planned.

Aubrey Plaza is one of my favorite humans in Hollywood. She's honest, blunt, unapologetic, and hilarious. I just started my sophomore year of college, and found that some of her best moments can accurately describe the start of the school year.

1. When your advisor tells you that you should declare a major soon.

2. Seeing the lost and confused freshmen and remembering that was you a short year ago, and now being grateful you know the ins and outs of the campus.

3. Going to the involvement fair to sign up for more clubs knowing that you are already too involved.

4. When you actually do the reading required for the first class.

5. Seeing your friends for the first time since last semester.

6. When you're already drowning in homework during syllabus week.

7. Realizing you don't have the same excitement for classes as you did as a freshman.

8. Going home and seeing people from high school gets weirder the older you get.

Dear Mom,

You took care of me and my brothers our entire lives and you still continue to! I will not be able to truly grasp all of the hard work that you put into this family until I create my own one day. But, I know that there are plenty of times I forgot to give you a simple thank you or an appreciative smile. I thank you for everything that you have done for me and will continue to do for me. Here are some examples of those times where you had my back and I forgot to pat your back for saving me:

College is hard. As people ages 18-22, we’re just trying to figure out what we’re doing with our lives, our careers, our eating habits, exercise routines, sleep patterns, and other necessities for adult life. We definitely don’t take proper care of ourselves; it’s basically impossible when we have essays, tests and readings due and somehow we’re supposed to eat right, exercise and sleep. We’re doomed to get sick. I have zero experience in science but when I get sick there are certain things I do to make myself better.
