Feelings About The Election Told By Pixar's 'Inside Out'

This election season has been filled with emotions.

With the upcoming election, I'm sure we're all feeling a mix of emotions. Whether we're "With Her" or want to "Make America Great Again," there's only one (kind-of) positive outcome we can think of. In the recent film, Inside Out, there are five core emotions that each person has and they fuel how the person is going to feel in different situations. Here's how I feel about the current election based on these emotions.

Sadness


Any inkling of hope I had left in humanity went missing at about the same time I found out I couldn't vote for Bernie. He had a bird land on his podium for goodness sake! He was basically a male Snow White and the only saving grace this nation had. He'll always be the one that got away.


Fear


I'm scared for the future of this country. Either candidate can only dig our country into a hole that no one will be able to get us out of. I'm not ready for the potential for more wars, large walls, and booming bigotry nor for half the country to want to fight to impeach someone over emails.

Anger


This perfectly describes how I've felt during every debate and how I'll continue to feel when I have to listen to one of these people talk for the next four to eight years. I'm tired of only hearing racist slurs, people slandering one another, and broadcasters discuss possible treason and sexual assault cases.

Disgust

When I realized the only candidates I have to choose from are a racist orange or a try-hard PTA mom. Sure, there's Jill Stein and Gary Johnson but do they really have a chance when the media has been blowing up about Clinton and Trump since day one? Probably not.

Joy


How I'll feel watching the results roll in on Tuesday night when my favorite takes the lead.


Although, no matter who wins our brains will always just filter the presidents like this:

"US presidents. What do you think?"
"Just keep Washington, Lincoln and the fat one."

I'm serious

There are tons of unisex names that are popular: Taylor, Alex, Bailey, etc. There are also numerous names that are used for both sexes, but they’re not seen as “unisex” yet. People are slowly becoming accustomed to the dual use of these names, but for the most part, in their minds they associate certain names with certain sexes. And that leaves those of us with these names in many awkward situations.

You know that all of these things apply to you. You'll just never tell.

I'm an anthropology major, and I love every minute of it. I couldn't tell you why, but I guess there's just something about studying different lifestyles that absolutely fascinates me. But anthropology majors definitely have our weird sides, especially when you go to a school that is filled with mostly Business and Bio majors. But us weirdos definitely have a lot in common, specifically these 16 things.

Everyone has insecurities, that's just a fact. You didn't ask to be born this way. You didn't ask to inherit the one trait no one else in your family has. And you definitely didn't ask to be this ghostly white. But as soon as you've learned to live with it for a while (less wrinkles later on in life, right? right???) someone has to ruin it for you. They have to flaunt they're perfectly tanned body from Spring Break and hold their sun-kissed skin against yours. But I've had enough... here are the things that perpetually pale individuals are tired of hearing.
