Life is turning into one big standup...

In This Article:

John Mulaney is one of my all-time favorite comedians because he manages to get political, existential, and analytical all while maintaining a lovable and approachable image - something I have yet to master. If you have not watched Mulaney's stand up Netflix specials, do yourself a favor and call in sick to work tomorrow and "treat yo self" to the funniest three hours of your life. I think the reason I like John Mulaney so much is because he is so relatable. He grew up in a middle class lifestyle, and experienced much of the same things we experienced. Here are 11 John Mulaney GIFs that parallel college life perfectly:

1. When the high schoolers come for campus tours

Even though I'm just a freshman, somehow I already find myself mocking the high school tour groups. Maybe it's just something about the way they're always outside my dorm door looking at our bathrooms?

2. The face you make when your professor looks over at you

Zoning out in class and acting like you were paying attention is truly an art form that I have yet to perfect.

3. Holding the door for people who are 39845 miles away

If I hold the door, I'm standing in the cold way longer than I need to. If I walk away, they will think I'm rude. The struggle is real, people!

4. Having absolutely no clue what's going on in class

The other day I walked into chemistry, saw the word "stoichiometry" on the board, and immediately wanted to walk out.

5. Receiving the email that says class is canceled

There is nothing more satisfying than waking up, seeing an email from your professor titled "No Class Today," and going straight back to sleep.

6. What we wish our advisors said about our GPAs

Apparently, grades now depend on our test scores? College is wild.

7. Whenever we hear the word "free"

Free stuff is my kryptonite.

8. When you're on your 5th plate at the dining hall and your friends says she wants more

When the dining hall has curly fries, it's a sin not to eat some

9. "Wanna go down and get some soft serve?"

The answer is always yes. My favorite is vanilla with crushed Reese's on top.

10. Feeling like the crows on the quad get bigger every time you see them

Is it just me or are the ISU crows abnormally large? All I'm saying is I would not want to get in their way.

11. Getting the email that says there's a package for you at the front desk

Even though 99% of the time it's something we ordered for ourselves, getting mail will never not be fun

College can be tough sometimes, but it's nice to know we're all on the struggle bus together. And hey, if you feel overwhelmed, just kick back and have a John Mulaney watch party with your BFFs and forget all about your stress!

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.
