This Election Will Be The Death Of Us
USA Politics Now

"THE END IS NIGHT!! THE END IS NIGH!!" This seems to be what everyone is saying nowadays whenever politics gets brought up. Whether you support Donald Trump, Hillary Clinton, a third party candidate, or you're just waiting for the sweet release of election day it seems that everyone can agree that the apocalypse is coming and this presidential election has been the bringer of the end days.

Now though I may be a simple 18 year old and this may be my first time voting in the rodeo that is American Politics, i know when something is up. And this year something is way way up.

"But Jacob Sir," you may say -- and while i do appreciate the manners, sir is not necessary, a simple "Oh Captain, My Captain" will do -- "I don't smell any sulfur or see any headless horseman. How can you be sure that this is the apocalypse? We've survived dozens of so called apocalypses (Y2K, The Mayan apocalypse, and even the temporary discontinuation of Twinkies). There's nothing we can't get through!"

Wow, reader I am impressed by your modern day apocalyptic knowledge, you must be well versed. But while you are a mere novice in the apocalyptic arts, I am a master and i have seen the SIGNS.

Simple things you may have seen as just idiosyncrasies, I have seen the SIGNS in. Now give me a minute to finish this sacrificial ritual dedicated to the almighty Pooh Bear and I'll show you these SIGNS so that you too may prepare.

*Now if you will, imagine what in the blue blazes a sacrificial ritual dedicated to Pooh Bear will look like because I have no idea but wouldn't that be something to see!*

Okay now that i am finished here are a few signs to look out for the next time you see one of the *Cough* Horseman *Cough*, WHAT who said horseman?? I meant candidates, i swear....CARRYING ON!!

Firstly it is stated in several early drafts of the goofy movie script that i found in an ancient cave in Babylon that "He who shall inherit thy title of Antichrist shall warn thine public thusly by sniffing 666 times in front of thy entire world."

And i know this sounds crazy, i swear I'm not crazy, but if you look closely at all of the presidential debates so far you can see that Donald Trump has sniffed exactly 666 times. Now there's no need to look and count them all, you can just trust me. The other SIGN though states right after the part where Bigfoot shows up on Goofy and Max's camping trip that "She who wears only thine glorious armor known as the pant suit shall be the one to open the gates of Hades and let forth the Antichrist known as he who sniffs!"

THAT'S NO COINCIDENCE PEOPLE!! The end is nigh! Now build your arks, gather your animals, sacrifice your goats, and prepare!!

Creating your schedule for the upcoming semester can be an exciting process. You have the control to decide if you want to have class two-days a week or five-days a week. You get to check things off of your requirement checklist. It's an opportunity for a fresh start with new classes (which you tell yourself you'll never skip.) This process, which always starts out so optimistic, can get frustrating really quickly. Here are 25 thoughts you have when registering for classes.

10 Thoughts Of A 5th Year Senior

What about those of us who don't do it all in four years?

"College will be the best four years of your life" is a phrase that we have all heard growing up. College is painted as a magical place to us while we are in high school. A place you go to learn, meet your best friends and probably have the time of your life while all of this is going down. Four whirlwind years, where everything that you've known changes and you start to learn what it means to live on your own, have a job, etc. But what about those of us who don't do this all in four years? Major changes, hard courses, switching schools, career paths changing, these are just a handful of factors that could extend your four years to five, six or seven. There is nothing wrong with taking extra time to graduate, but returning as a fifth-year is a little different. Most of your best friends have most likely graduated and moved and while you may be one of the oldest undergraduates on campus, you might feel as awkward as a freshmen. A world that became home and comfortable to you is still there but it's slightly different than you've known it to be and you have to find a groove to fall into. These are thoughts you'll have as you look ahead to returning to your college campus, with a victory lap planned.

You can't say that no one told you life was gonna be this way.

friends

In the 12 years since it went off the air, "Friends" continues to be adored by millions. The show that gave generations unrealistic expectations about love (or should I say lobsters?) and New York City apartments had a charming cast of characters that everyone could relate to at some point or another. Here are 17 times Ross, Monica, Joey, Chandler, Phoebe and Rachel accurately described life.

"I don't want to do things. I want to do not things."

Aubrey Plaza is one of my favorite humans in Hollywood. She's honest, blunt, unapologetic, and hilarious. I just started my sophomore year of college, and found that some of her best moments can accurately describe the start of the school year.

1. When your advisor tells you that you should declare a major soon.

2. Seeing the lost and confused freshmen and remembering that was you a short year ago, and now being grateful you know the ins and outs of the campus.

3. Going to the involvement fair to sign up for more clubs knowing that you are already too involved.

4. When you actually do the reading required for the first class.

5. Seeing your friends for the first time since last semester.

6. When you're already drowning in homework during syllabus week.

7. Realizing you don't have the same excitement for classes as you did as a freshman.

8. Going home and seeing people from high school gets weirder the older you get.
