Flying. F*%$ing. Cockroaches.

Literally.

If you live in the northeastern region of the United States, then I'm so sorry for you. Not only have you been enduring this massive heatwave, which is leaving us all dripping with sweat and anger, but soon enough you might have to walk around in a goddamn hazmat suit. Because yes, you did read the above correctly; the cockroaches may start to fly.

Apparently, we've finally hit the perfect combination of heat and humidity, which turns the air into a nasty soup that "encourages them to fly... when it's warm and steamy, that's what they like." This officially makes them (according to my own analysis) the most disgusting pieces of shit ever.

New York City is expected to be the most affected area, according to Weather Nation TV. While this would be a new apocalyptic phenomenon for the Big Apple, it turns out that it isn't a new sensation in the U.S.A. One Facebook user says, "Cockroaches have always flown back in Missouri... New Yorkers, look out. These things will hit you in the head when you're driving at night or out in the yard."

So, depending on where in the United States you are, you will probably see this news in one of two ways. If you're from New York, you're probably debating setting your house on fire and moving to Colorado. If you're living somewhere where this horrific event is already a daily occurrence, then you're probably glad that some more people are going to be suffering alongside you.

If you want to read more about flying cockroaches, then you can feel free to read all about them right here, because I honestly couldn't be bothered to research this disgusting and disturbing topic anymore.

Basically, it's so hot out that you should absolutely never leave the air conditioning ever unless it's an emergency. And, as if that wasn't bad enough, now you should probably keep an eye out for cockroaches buzzing around your head.

I think the hardest thing about going away to college is figuring out how to become an adult. Leaving a household where your parents took care of literally everything (thanks, Mom!) and suddenly becoming your own boss is overwhelming. I feel like I'm doing a pretty good job of being a grown-up, but once in awhile I do something that really makes me feel like I'm #adulting. Twenty-somethings know what I'm talking about.

I went to a small high school, like 120-people-in-my-graduating-class small. It definitely had some good and some bad, and if you also went to a small high school, I’m sure you’ll relate to the things that I went through.

1. If something happens, everyone knows about it

Who hooked up with whom at the party? Yeah, heard about that an hour after it happened. You failed a test? Sorry, saw on Twitter last period. Facebook fight or, God forbid, real fight? It was on half the class’ Snapchat story half an hour ago. No matter what you do, someone will know about it.

Chandler Bing

I'm assuming that we've all heard of the hit 90's TV series, Friends, right? Who hasn't? Admittedly, I had pretty low expectations when I first started binge watching the show on Netflix, but I quickly became addicted.

Without a doubt, Chandler Bing is the most relatable character, and there isn't an episode where I don't find myself thinking, Yup, Iam definitely the Chandler of my friend group.

Working with the public can be a job, in and of itself. Some people are just plain rude for no reason. But regardless of how your day is going, always having to be in the best of moods, or at least act like it... right?

1. When a customer wants to return a product, hands you the receipt, where is printed "ALL SALES ARE FINAL" in all caps.

2. Just because you might be having a bad day, and you're in a crappy mood, doesn't make it okay for you to yell at me or be rude to me. I'm a person with feelings, just like you.

3. People refusing to be put on hold when a customer is standing right in front of you. Oh, how I wish I could just hang up on you!
