We spend so much time talking to our friends via Snapchat, Facebook, X, Instagram, etc. that we don't take advantage of actually having a face-to-face conversation. So, put your phone down. Invoke your creativity. Engage in friendly debates with your friends. Seriously. It's not only fun with friends but it's also good for the soul.

1. Is a hot dog a sandwich?

If it's not a sandwich then, what is it?

2. Is Earth really just a simulation?

Is everything we've ever known a deception? Some people believe so.

3. Is water wet?

Now really think about this. Is there "dry" water? Can ice be wet?

4. Is cereal a soup?

If you pour milk into the cereal is the milk a soup?

5. Who would win in a fight? One 500-lb duck or 500 1-lb ducks?

Could the 500 1-lb ducks gang up on the one big duck or will the one big duck stomp out all of the little ducks?

6. Sock, sock, shoe, shoe? or sock, shoe, sock, shoe?

Is there a right or wrong way to put your socks and shoes on?

7. What is more of a salad? Fruit salad or potato salad?

What even is a salad?

8. Loved and lost? Or never loved at all?

Is the feeling of love worth the feeling of losing it or are all of the feelings not worth it at all?

9. Do straws have two holes or one?

Do straws have two holes or one continuous hole?

10. Are a dog's front limbs called arms? or legs?

Do dogs have 4 legs? Or 2 arms and 2 legs?

11. How do you actually pronounce GIF?

Like "gift" or like "jiffy"?

Tulane University

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.

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.
