11 Seinfeld Quotes To Live By
Hulu

For the past month, I've been binge-watching all of "Seinfeld" --the cherry on top of a two-year obsession with the renowned "show about nothing." During this time, I've learned many valuable life lessons. I've also learned how to differentiate which season a clip is from based on the style of Elaine's hair. I've understood all of the running jokes that one doesn't catch onto when sporadically watching randomly assorted episodes. And most importantly, I learned that there is definitely something to this show about nothing. So this is the perfect opportunity to pass some of my newly acquired knowledge onto you.


1. "I gotta focus. I'm shifting into soup mode."

Sometimes, some things are so important that you've got to block out everything else. For example, overcoming temptation to procrastinate online instead of studying, or instead of chatting while waiting in line for the best soup in New York City.

2. "Not that there's anything wrong with that."

You've gotta respect the way other people live their lives. They may be different from you, but just remember their thoughts and feelings.


3. "I had to take a sick day. I'm sick of these people."

Every once in a while, nothing is better than just taking some time off for yourself.

4. "My name is George. I'm unemployed and I live with my parents."

You've gotta be true to yourself. Although this directly contradicts another of his famous lines, "It's not a lie if you believe it."

5. "No way wine is better than Pepsi."

Oftentimes, it's the simple things in life that make us feel the best.

6. "I proclaim this the Summer of George!"

You've got plenty of reasons to be hopeful. Wish for the best for yourself and everybody else in everything.


7. "This was supposed to be the Summer of George."

Things won't always go the way you expect them to or want them to. Sometimes you've just got to resign yourself to that fact.

8. "Serenity now!"

Whenever you're feeling overwhelmed by anything, just utter this line. It'll help relieve stress. And nobody said you didn't have to shout it.


9. "Well the Jerk Store called, and they're running out of you!"

A handy line for whenever somebody is giving you crap. Known as possibly the best comeback ever.

10. "These pretzels are making me thirsty!"

Stay hydrated, kids. Become a citizen of the hydration nation.

11. "I am down. I am totally down. Mark me down!"

Sometimes in life, you've got to jump into things headfirst. You've gotta be eager, and maybe even wear a backwards hat. You've gotta try new things. Whenever anybody asks me if I want to watch Seinfeld, this is how I reply.


So now you've gained some new perspective and some handy life advice. Go use it!

The Perks of Being a Girl

“I just want you to know that you’re very special… and the only reason I’m telling you is that I don’t know if anyone else ever has.”

We Heart It

Over the past decade, television has undergone a very crucial transition: the incorporation of female lead characters. Since it's a known fact that girls actually do run the world (Beyonce said so herself), it's time for the leading ladies of the small screen to get some credit. Without these characters, women would still be sitting in the background of our favorite shows. These women are not only trailblazers for female empowerment, but role models for women worldwide. With that, here are 15 of the smartest, sassiest ladies gracing our screens that remind us that women do, indeed, rule:

If you are like me, you have an interesting personality. Basically, you love to be sassy and snarky, gossip, and act like a total bitch (not really), but deep down, you are actually a very genuinely nice person. The idea of actually hurting someone truly makes you feel bad, and you probably have never actually hurt someone’s feelings because your kindness always shines through, even if you do not want it to. Not sure exactly what I would call this type of personality, but if you identify with it, here are some feelings you can undoubtedly relate to.
