What College Students Are Tired Of Hearing
Noiseless Chatter

I'm not entirely sure why I have heard these questions so many times or why people think it's necessary to ask them. Yet, here we are reading an article about it because over the years I've come to find out I'm not the only one overly annoyed with these questions. Sometimes, you hear the questions and you can brush them off while others make you want to repeatedly bang your head on your very expensive and unused college books.

1. Are you eating healthy?

Yes totally. Because being surrounded by cafeterias, food courts, Starbucks, pizza places that are open till 2 a.m. and staying up late studying is totally good for my healthy eating habits.

2. You don't skip any classes do you?

Absolutely not. All of my classes are SUPER important and teach me all the life skills that I need to survive. I really love hearing the Spanish professor babble for an hour and a half about her nine-year-old cat that looks "super adorable" when it sleeps.

3. Why don't you have a significant other yet?

Because I thoroughly enjoy being the third wheel and never having a date to any of the formals or parties. DUH.

4. You're never going to find a job if that's what you're majoring in.

I seriously appreciate your vote of confidence.

5. Are you excited about going back next semester?

Summer break JUST started yesterday... what do you think my answer is, lady?

6. College is easy.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA okay bye.

7. Student loans can't be THAT bad.

Does that mean you're going to pay for them all for me?

8. Shouldn't you slow down on the coffee consumption?

Don't tell me how to live my life.

9. Why didn't you make Dean's List?

Because I'm above all those stupid "labels."

10. How do you think you did on your finals?

If we could all act like they didn't happen that would be great.

11. Shouldn't you be studying more often?

12. Do you get enough sleep?

Are the bags under my bags really not that obvious?

13. Did you gain the freshman 15?

I have zero self control.

14. Do you always dress like a bum?

Only on days that end in y.


15. You're going to be an adult soon are you ready for it?

It's a no from me.

16. You took longer than four years to graduate?

I'm sorry that we can't all be as perfect as your four-time middle school honor roll student.

17. How are you going to pay off your student loans?

Honestly, I'm not really sure. Say an extra prayer for me please.

18. How often do you go out and paaaarty?

Never. I'm snuggled up in my bed at 8 p.m. on the dot.

19. You don't call home enough.

Sorry I've been drowning in my sorrows school work.

Toilet Troubles

"So, usually I would never go on a Tinder date but when you are out with girlfriends and a hot Bosnian guy says he wants to hang with you and his friends, you oblige. We head to their apartment and when I realized I may pee my pants if I don't find a bathroom soon. I ask for the bathroom and a friend of my tinder date shows me to it and said in all seriousness that I was not allowed to flush the toilet under ANY circumstances. Having a few drinks--or five--I relieved myself to, nevertheless, flush the toilet. Within seconds, his bathroom was flooded and towels were laid out everywhere to catch the toilet water. To say the least, we were not invited back"
