Campaign Merchandise Superlatives

Everyone knows how important this upcoming general election is. This election decides if we go down the toilet or get thrown in the dumpster as a nation. There is really no good choice (in my humble opinion). Even though we know that there are no great choices left the candidates are doing everything they can to convince you otherwise. One way they do this is through their online stores. Because not only do they want your vote, but they also want you to let everyone at school or work know too, and get you into endless political argument with the guy on campus who believes that Ted Cruz is the messiah or the girl who only likes Hillary Clinton because she is a woman. Now in my research to see which candidate I will be voting for in November, I saw some interesting, or not so interesting things in their stores. I think it says a lot about the candidates too.

With that being said I have given out some awards and superlatives to the best and worst items I have seen.

1. Least Likely to be Purchased

I don't even know why they have this shirt on the store. If there are any Democrats in Alabama they are Bernie supporters.

2. Best Jab at Trump

Very fitting for the billionaire baby....

3. Bernie's Most Clever Item

I see what you did there Mr Sanders, but I'm "totes" not voting for you.

4. Ugliest Christmas Sweater

Looks like his administration would if he won. It could be uglier though...

5. Zero Cares Given

The guy is a billionaire! You would think the guy could spend some money on marketing.

Bernie was a close second...

6. The "We Get It, You're a Conservative" Award

You can't really get anywhere with that driving philosophy...

7. Overly Inclusive

I think she forgot babies, criminals, and mermaids.

8. Least Likely to Be On a Future Economist

I mean the baby could be a psychology major like me.

9. Trump's Flashy Shirt

Astounding.

9. Most likely to be a purchase for your dad's Mid-Life Crisis

10. Most likely to be a Myth

Like Bigfoot and unicorns, John Kasich shirts exist only in internet pictures and on television.

11. Honorable Mentions

If only they had stayed...

I couldn't possibly fit all their shirts, foam fingers, and throw pillows (yes I said throw pillows) in this article. I don't know who your favorite candidate is, but maybe this article helped inspire you to buy a T-shirt you will only wear once.

The Daily Struggles of Being a College Commuter

It's not all morning coffees and singing along to the radio.

The Daily Struggles of Being a College Commuter
morethanwheels

I've been in college for four years now. I spent half my time as a commuter and half as a resident so I've experienced both sides of the housing spectrum. One thing I've learned comparing the two is that my struggles as a commuter far outweigh anything I went through while living on campus. Commuters have to deal with the problems school brings along with a slew of other issues; I've filled up my gas tank in the worst kind of weather conditions and napped in random places in public more times than I'm proud to say of. This is a list of some of the most challenging aspects of being a commuter.
