13 Things I've Learned From 13 Years Of 'Supernatural'

"Supernatural" has been on for 13 years. It has taught a lot of people a lot of things. Here are 13 things I've learned from it.

1. Family is what you make it

media.rbl.ms

"Just because you're blood doesn't make you family." Dean, Sam, Bobby, Cas. They've all had great quotes about family. They have shown me that sharing blood means nothing. The people that care most about you are your family.

2. Face your fears. It might be funny

vignette.wikia.nocookie.net

Sorry but Yellow Fever will forever be my favorite episode because of this. However, on the show, the boys are constantly facing their fears, whether it's clowns, airplanes, kittens, or each other dying. They've threatened God and killed Death. They literally shouldn't be afraid of anything.

3. The driver picks the music

Shotgun shuts his cakehole. Don't touch my music on a roadtrip. Just don't.

4. There is always time for pie

i.pinimg.com

Dean Winchester is the only person that could convince me to try pie. It hasn't happened but he could do it.

5. Carry on

pm1.narvii.com

Okay. Maybe this one was Kansas but how many of you would know about Kansas if it weren't for Supernatural? I've learned that there will, mot likely, be peace when you're done with a hard situation. If there isn't peace, Carry On.

6. There's nothing like the classics

thenewswheel.com

Classic cars. Classic music. There is nothing like a classic. Look at that car!

7. Death is inevitable

vignette.wikia.nocookie.net

Death is coming for everyone. It's okay. Pick up the pieces and fight for what is right.

8. Your parents sacrifice so much for you

i.pinimg.com

Your parents may not literally give up their lives for you but they kinda do. They put their plans on hold to protect you, They will put their lives on the line for you. Your parents sacrifice more than you will ever know.

9. Vampires are (sort of) real

Yeah. That's right. Sterling K Brown was on Supernatural

vignette.wikia.nocookie.net

Maybe there is no such thing as literal vampires BUT there are people that will suck the life out of you. They want your money, your life, your time. They suck you dry and leave you alone. So, there are definitely vampires.

10. Crossroads............... Avoid them

vignette.wikia.nocookie.net

Bad things happen at crossroads on this show and in real life. Crossroads are where the boys have made stupid deals. Crossroads are where a lot of accidents happen in real life. Go the long way if you have to and avoid crossroads.

11. There is something after the end

media1.tenor.com

Hi! Welcome to Supernatural where we narrowly avoid the Apocalypse once a year, possibly twice if Lucifer is free. But seriously. If you think it's the end of the world for whatever reason, there is always something better coming after your version of The Apocalypse.

12. Everyone has a story

imagesvc.timeincapp.com

Don't judge a book by it's cover. The book might reveal and amazing angel but the cover is warn and tattered. You'll never know if you don't pick it up.

13. Family is forever

makingislands.files.wordpress.com

This quote means a lot more when you realize that every single hunter calls every other hunter their family on the show. I end where I began because family is so important to the show and it is important in real life. When everyone leaves you, your family remains.

The Great Christmas Movie Debate

"A Christmas Story" is the star on top of the tree.

The Great Christmas Movie Debate
Mental Floss

One staple of the Christmas season is sitting around the television watching a Christmas movie with family and friends. But of the seemingly hundreds of movies, which one is the star on the tree? Some share stories of Santa to children ("Santa Claus Is Coming to Town"), others want to spread the Christmas joy to adults ("It's a Wonderful Life"), and a select few are made to get laughs ("Elf"). All good movies, but merely ornaments on the Christmas tree of the best movies. What tops the tree is a movie that bridges the gap between these three movies, and makes it a great watch for anyone who chooses to watch it. Enter the timeless Christmas classic, "A Christmas Story." Created in 1983, this movie holds the tradition of capturing both young and old eyes for 24 straight hours on its Christmas Day marathon. It gets the most coverage out of all holiday movies, but the sheer amount of times it's on television does not make it the greatest. Why is it,
then? A Christmas Story does not try to tell the tale of a Christmas miracle or use Christmas magic to move the story. What it does do though is tell the real story of Christmas. It is relatable and brings out the unmatched excitement of children on Christmas in everyone who watches. Every one becomes a child again when they watch "A Christmas Story."

After talking to a few of my friends at college, I realized that a lot of them don't really have "Christmas traditions" in their family, and I want to help change that. Here's a list of Christmas traditions that my family does, and anyone can incorporate into their family as well!

It’s here; that time of year when college students turn into preschoolers again. We cry for our mothers, eat everything in sight, and whine when we don’t get our way. It’s finals, the dreaded time of the semester when we all realize we should have been paying attention in class instead of literally doing anything else but that. Everyone has to take them, and yes, unfortunately, they are inevitable. But just because they are here and inevitable does not mean they’re peaches and cream and full of rainbows. Surviving them is a must, and the following five phases are a reality for all majors from business to art, nursing to history.
