Black Friday As Told By Gifs

It's such a crazy experience.

As I am writing this, I just got home from Thanksgiving Day/Black Friday shopping. I got a lot of great deals and almost all of my Christmas shopping done. This is the first year that I actually had a list of stuff I wanted instead of just walking into stores and having no idea what to expect. I highly recommend the former. I had quite a better experience than previous years. So, I thought I would share some general reactions felt by most on Thanksgiving day/Black Friday shopping. I am going to be focusing on Thanksgiving Day.

1. When you make all your plans of where to shop and what to get

2. When you actually get out after taking a nap and/or fully digesting your Thanksgiving day meal.

3. On this day, Coffee instantly becomes your best friend.

4. The moment you enter into any store, no matter how many people there are.

5. When you have no shopping lists

6. When you're forced to follow the crowd because you don't want to get run over

7. What you want to do every time someone gets too close to you, takes the last of something you wanted, or hits you without apologizing

8. But when you actually see a confrontation and you're not involved

9. The whole time you are out shopping and are questioning your life

10. But after you look at the savings at the bottom of the recipe, you realize it was all worth it

Those are just some of the reactions I had during the past couple years I have spent doing Thanksgiving day/Black Friday shopping. I hope you enjoyed and understood the wonderful experience felt by most during this weekend.

Living Away From Home, As Described By 'Friends'

For better or for worse

"Friends" maybe didn’t have everything right or realistic all the time, but they did have enough episodes to create countless reaction GIFs and enough awesomeness to create, well, the legacy they did. Something else that is timeless, a little rough, but memorable? Living away from the comforts of home. Whether you have an apartment, a dorm, your first house, or some sort of residence that is not the house you grew up in, I’m sure you can relate to most of these!

No matter how long your class is, there's always time for the mind to wander. Much like taking a shower or trying to fall asleep, sitting in a classroom can be a time when you get some of your best ideas. But, more than likely, you're probably just trying to mentally cope with listening to a boring lecturer drone on and on. Perhaps some of the following Aristotle-esque thoughts have popped into your head during class.

Adult Swim

Bob's Burgers is arguably one of the best and most well-written shows on tv today. That, and it's just plain hilarious. From Louise's crazy antics to Tina's deadpan self-confidence, whether they are planning ways to take over school or craft better burgers, the Belchers know how to have fun. They may not be anywhere close to organized or put together, but they do offer up some wise words once and awhile.
