If You've Been Living Under A Rock These Are The 15 Kanye Kuotes You Need to Know And Live By

In This Article:

Everyone knows who Kanye is, whether it's your grandma who knows him as that guy who doesn't have good grammar, or your fellow teens whose voices are constantly gone from screaming his lyrics every Friday night.

So for all the times where you're lacking in pop culture knowledge, read this article so you have something interesting to whip out.

1. "I feel like I'm too busy writing history to read it."

Interesting. Could this be Kanye's way of telling the public that he is illiterate?

2. "50 is Eminem's favorite rapper. I'm my favorite rapper."

Giphy

All right then, you're your own role model, I guess. No one loves you like Kanye loves Kanye.

3. "I don't even listen to rap. My apartment is too nice to listen to rap in."

Giphy

Wait, but aren't you a rapper? Does this mean that you don't like your own music?

4. "If I was just a fan of music, I would think that I was the number one artist in the world."

Giphy

Bro, you're sending some mixed messages here. Do you or do you not like your own music?

5. "I really appreciate the moments that I was able to win rap album of the year or whatever."

Giphy

Wow, so sincere or whatever.

6. "Love your haters, they're your biggest fans."

Giphy

I can't tell if this is really deep or really stupid.

7. "I don't care about what people think, because people don't think."

Giphy

My above statement still stands.

8. "You basically can say anything to someone on an email or text as long as you put LOL at the end."

Giphy

I'll keep that in mind for the next time I have to break up with someone or tell them someone died. Thanks, Kanye.

9. "You weren't perfect, but you made life worth it."

Giphy

Kim is such a lucky woman.

10. "My greatest pain in life is that I will never be able to see myself perform live."

Giphy

Me too, buddy, me too.

11. "They say people in your life are seasons, and anything that happens is for a reason."

Giphy

Alright, I actually really like this one, it's pretty true.

12. "Believe in your flyness...conquer your shyness."

Giphy

Now I understand why he's such a good rapper. It's because of these dope rhymes.

13. "One of my biggest Achilles heels has been my ego, and if I, Kanye West, can remove my ego, I think there's hope for everyone."

Giphy

At least he knows he has a big ego.

14. "I want the world to be better! All I want is positive! All I want is dopeness!"

Giphy

He's got a point. Dopeness= better world.

15. "Sometimes people write novels, and they just be so wordy and so self-absorbed."

Giphy

You don't say.

Above all, his weird and sometimes ignorant comments on life, he does have a point. Living life to its fullest with tons of confidence isn't all that bad. My personal favorite quote of his is "I refuse to accept other people's ideas of happiness for me. As if there's a 'one size all' standard for happiness." Kanye has a great mindset where he doesn't let anyone's opinions affect him. He constantly strives to be better and always sets high goals for himself, and I don't see anything wrong with that, even if they are based on his own arrogance and ego sometimes.

6 Unrealistic Expectations Society Has For Young Adults

Don't let the thesaurus-inspired vocabularies in our résumés fool you. We're actually just big kids.

2097

Well over four feet tall and 100 pounds in weight, many of us "young adults" of the world still consider ourselves children. Big, working, college-attending, beer-drinking children. We may live on our own, know how to cook noodles, and occasionally use a planner, but don't be fooled; the youthful tendencies that reside within us still make their way into our daily lives. From choosing to stay up until 3:00 a.m. playing video games on a school night to going out in 30 degree weather without a coat, we still make decisions that our parents and grandparents would shake their heads at in disappointment. So why are we expected to know exactly how to be a wise, professional, sensible adult? It's not that we're irresponsible (for the most part, anyway). It's that we are young, inexperienced, and still have the sought-after, enthusiastic mentality that we can do and be whatever we want, which has not yet been tarnished by the reality of the world. These are just a few of the unrealistic expectations that society has for young adults.

pizza
Fandango

There are a lot of foods in this world, but there is only one dish that stands above the rest: Pizza. If you're close to me or at least know who I am, then you know that I'm totally obsessed with pizza. It's one of my favorite things to eat and I will NEVER turn down a slice, even if it doesn't have my favorite toppings. There isn't a day that goes by where I'm not thinking about pizza. I even sleep with a pizza pillow every night! There are many reasons why pizza stands above all other foods, and here are just a couple reasons why.

sex and the city

1. You don't have to feel guilty about flirting with customers for tips (or just for shits and giggles).

2. You can be obnoxiously flirtatious with anyone you want. You are free to be that girl that flirts with everybody and makes 'em all smile (it's especially fun when the guy is as cute as Collin Jost). No shame.

3. Making random men nervous with your superior beauty and intense eye contact just for the hell of it is really amusing and empowering.

4. No one gives two poops if ya legs are hairy (your man shouldn't either but *Kermit the Frog meme* That's none of my business)

5. The toilet seat will remain down.

6. There's more money to spend on yourself.

7. There's always this secret butterfly in your tummy that marvels at the possibility that when you go out this weekend you're gonna meet someone super handsome/wonderful/prince-like and have this moment of dazzling dalliance.

8. Nothing is that serious...you can take it all with a grain of salt...you don't owe anybody anything.

9. You can dance with anyone and everyone...or no one (Hello frat boi w/ glasses, I see you).

10. You don't have to fluff anyone's ego but your own.

11. Free drinks and dinners from single guys (It's not taking advantage if they're offering; a girl's gotta eat).

12. You have more time to learn how to love and improve yourself rather than constantly pouring your energy into another person.

13. You don't have to sacrifice your cheesy Jen Aniston rom-coms and Gilmore Girls for his Fast and Furious/other dumb action movie featuring blonde that is only in the movie to supply a relationship to the male lead and to make him look more masculine/empowered in juxtaposition (In other words, you don't have to deal with a guy being a crabby Patty while you watch your cute movies).

14. You can daydream about what your future husband may be doing right now (and not get stressed/guilty out because you're not picturing your current boyfriend that's crazy about you as your future husband).

15. There is more time to be spent with your girlfriends.

Girls Night In
Milk + Blush

We've all been there - you've been saying since Tuesday after French that this weekend is the weekend. You're finally going to break out those new heels and actually put on eyeliner on and make this Friday night be one for the memory books! That is, of course, until Girls Night Out turned into...Girls Night In.
