9 Delicious Foods You'll Need While Binge-Watching 'Gilmore Girls' This Weekend
NBC News

So you've been a devout "Gilmore" fan since the first episode aired in 2000. This most likely means you are currently flipping out about the fact that "Gilmore Girls: A Year in the Life" airs today. Like you, I fantasize about having a cup of coffee at Luke's and exchanging obscure movie references with Lorelai and Rory.

Of course, something the Gilmore girls are known for is their ability to shovel copious amounts of junk food into their mouths (and still be incredibly skinny like... what?). To truly embrace the craziness that the Gilmore girls exude, you're going to need some junk food comfort food of your own to get through your binge watch of the new series. Here's a list of the top nine "Gilmore Approved Foods" you'll want to nosh on while watching the crazy antics of Lorelai and Rory Gilmore this weekend!

1. Pop Tarts

A pantry staple of the Gilmore house, pop tarts are a must when watching Gilmore Girls! If you don't have a box on hand, are you really a fan?

2. Pie

Lorelai and Rory are often seen chowing down on pie at Luke's Diner. A Gilmore recommendation would be a big slice of apple pie, probably with a large scoop of ice cream on top.

3. Burgers

It's been said by multiple sources that hamburgers are the closest that a Gilmore will get to a salad. Try topping one of these babies with lots of cheese, bacon, and other savory goodies to make it even better.

4. Chinese Food

While you might not be able to get questionable orange chicken from Al's Pancake World, Chinese food is always a good option! Grab some (not so sketchy) orange chicken, chow mein, and a fortune cookie before you sit down to binge watch.

5. Mallomars

Mallomars are such a big deal to the Gilmores that Rory made Lorelai a Mallomar display for her birthday one year. (Mother/Daughter goals?) These snacks are always good when you feel like you can't eat anymore, because you can and will eat a whole box of Mallomars.

6. Fries

Dubbed as "the Devil's starchy fingers" by Mrs. Kim, fries are a must if you're on this whole binge watching train for the long haul. Try a basket with a big side of your favorite condiment and a large dusting of salt.

7. Pizza

For all of the binge-watching that our beloved Rory and Lorelai did themselves, they usually had a big slice of cheesy pizza to chow down on. A box with a side of garlic twists is probably a safe bet for your Netflix needs.

8. Danishes

Luke is famous for his cherry danishes, loved by Rory and Lorelai (but mostly Lorelai) for many a year in Stars Hollow. Grab a big plate and dig in, just don't use two cell phones at once while eating one.

9. Coffee

Duh.

Now that Halloween is over, it's time to focus on the Holiday Season.

So while we approach the greatest time of the year, let's watch the 15 best Christmas movies of all time.

6 Signs You Are An English Major

There are various stereotypes about college students, most of which revolve around the concept of your major. Unfortunately, we often let stereotypes precede our own judgments, and we take what information is immediately available to us rather than forming our own opinions after considerable reflection. If I got a dollar for every time my friends have made a joke about my major I could pay my tuition. One stereotype on campus is the sensitive, overly critical and rigid English major. Here are six telltale signs you are one of them.

When you were little, your parents probably told you television makes your brain rot so you wouldn't watch it for twelve straight hours. However, I feel we can learn some pretty valuable stuff from television shows. "The Office," while a comedy, has some pretty teachable moments thrown in there. You may not know how to react in a situation where a co-worker does something crazy (like put your office supplies in jello) but thanks to "The Office," now you'll have an idea how to behave ifsomething like that should happen.

Here are just a few of the things that religious Office watchers can expect to learn.
