'Tis the season for Netflix and snacks.

Faces Anyone Who Has Binged A Show Will Recognize
Productive Magazine

Summer is undeniably a time for restlessness, idleness, and copious amounts of time wasted. Even though the end of May brings optimistic hopes of "getting a head start" on reading for the fall semester or "finally getting healthy" or catching up on your sleep so you can be on a "normal sleep pattern". But, without fail, the end of July comes around before you've gotten the chance to catch up with all those hometown high school friends you promised you would. One of the greatest time suckers of all time is our best friend and worst enemy, Netflix. All my binge watchers out there living large this summer (not leaving bed all day), this is for you.

1. The "You have to watch this show"

Alright, if you say so. It sounds interesting enough.

2. The "Can't get enough"

They're known to scream, "This is the best show ever written!"

3. The "Trying and failing to avoid spoilers"

Bonus points if your friends have already seen the whole series and constantly forget that you haven't.

4. The "It's a beautiful day outside but I can't be bothered"

Sure, everyone you know is on vacation or at a music festival, but you're enjoying hours of endless entertainment for (almost) free.

5. The "This is the last episode I'm watching before I go to sleep"

Who decided that every single episode should end in a cliffhanger? What sick, twisted person has done this to me?

6. The "Have you done anything all day?"

No, Mom, I have not. And I will not.

7. The "OMG, I finished a season in less than a day"

I feel a weird combination of pride and disgust at your "accomplishment."

8. The "Only three more episodes!!!"

There are far too many loose ends; they cannot possibly resolve everything.

9. The "What do you mean that's the end?!"

I demand more!!! Reunite the cast! Make a movie! Anything to keep the series alive!

10. The "My life is empty without this show"

The characters felt like friends, maybe even family, and without their lives to distract you from your own, everything just feels pointless.

11. The "What should I watch next?"

You will find another show to binge and you will repeat the entire process again. But then again, if you don't, maybe you'll actually get up and start doing productive things!

If I have learned one thing in my lifetime, it is that friends are a privilege. No one is required to give you their company and yet there is some sort of shared connection that keeps you together. And from that friendship, you may even find yourself lucky enough to have a few more friends, thus forming a group. Here are just a few signs that prove your current friend group is the ultimate friend group.

When it comes to television, there’s very few sets of on-screen siblings that a lot of us can relate to. Only those who have grown up with siblings knows what it feels like to fight, prank, and love a sibling. Ross and Monica Geller were definitely overbearing and overshared some things through the series of "Friends," but they captured perfectly what real siblings feel in real life. Some of their antics were funny, some were a little weird but all of them are completely relatable to brothers and sisters everywhere.

Every kid in college and/or high school dreams of summer the moment they walk through the door on the first day back in September. It becomes harder and harder to focus in classes and while doing assignments as the days get closer. The winter has been lagging, the days are short and dark, and no one is quite themselves due to lack of energy and sunlight. Let's face it: life is ten times better in the summertime.
