Buzzfeed quizzes: they are the conquerors of boredom. With nothing else to do and a friend asking me what my results were, I took the “Which Character From ‘The Office’ Are You?” quiz. I excitedly awaited my results after I answered the last question and… I got Michael Scott. I won’t lie I was a little disappointed, but he has some relatable traits. Some of those traits I see in others too: in fact, like everyone. Below are my findings.


1. Thinking about the future compared to your current situation…


“Yes. Money has been a little bit tight lately, but at the end of my life, when I'm sitting on my yacht, am I gonna be thinking about how much money I have? No. I'm gonna be thinking about how many friends I have and my children and my comedy albums.”


2. Visiting parents when you have no food…


“I was never in this for the money. But it turns out that the money was an absolute necessity for me.”


3. Watching scary movies or hearing ghost stories…


“I'm not superstitious, but I am a little stitious.”

4. When you try to make friends…


“Do I need to be liked? Absolutely not. I like to be liked. I enjoy being liked. I have to be liked, but it's not like this compulsive need to be liked, like my need to be praised.”


5. When you’re trying to get out of something…


Michael Scott: “Wish I could, but I can't. Well, can, but won't. Should, maybe, but shorn't.”

Kevin Malone: “Michael, please...”

Michael Scott: “What part of ‘shorn't’ don't you understand, Kevin?”


6. When you see your crush…


Michael Scott: “...for Holly. And I'm looking for perfect songs that work on two levels.”

Jim Halpert: “What are the two levels?”

Michael Scott: “The two levels being, ‘Welcome to Scranton’ and ‘I love you.’”


7. Any time someone doubts you…


“Yeah, well, maybe next time you will estimate me.”


8. How you justify procrastination…


“I can spend all day on a project, and he will finish the same project in half an hour. So that should tell you something.”

9. When something goes wrong and you frantically try to fix it…


“And I knew exactly what to do. But in a much more real sense, I had no idea what to do.”


10. #RelationshipGoals…


“Would I rather be feared or loved? Easy. Both. I want people to be afraid of how much they love me.”

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.

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.
