Just because you can brag about it and post it, doesn't necessarily mean you should.

5 Reasons Girls Today Are Modern Ted Bundy Bait

Netflix / YouTube

Ted Bundy's outer appearance was one many girls look for in a man. But what he was hiding inside him is what many predators hold within themselves every day.

1. Girls today will give their address out to anyone.

Hello, Jessica, Just because you live on 23 Nun ya BLVD doesn't mean you post it all over facebook. This opens your entire world up to predators who are lurking right outside your window.

2. Girls today will get in the car with anyone!

Just because that boy at the bar was friendly DOES NOT mean he isn't dangerous. I mean, Ted met Liz at the bar and took care of her child and her all while raping and slaughtering innocent women. He may be cute but he isn't cute enough for you to die over. That Uber driver might have five stars but are those five stars for his driving performance or his ability to hide a murder so well???

3. Girls today post everything on social media.

Girl congrats on that new dining room table but did you know I can see that your door is unlocked in the background of that picture or that your window doesn't have a lock on it and can easily be shimmed open by a butter knife.

4. Girls today trust to easily.

Yes, he's complimenting you on the new dress that you just bought or the makeup you spent hours trying to perfect. But that doesn't mean he actually likes it or that he's actually a safe person to tell your business too.

5. Girls today don't UNDERSTAND how that can be snatched in one second.

Girls today don't understand how in just one minute their whole life can change just by one post or conversation they had with one person. Predators are everywhere and they sometimes seem to be the nicest people. Instead, they are the most dangerous people and the ones who can and will hurt you as soon as they get the chance. All because of a piece of information you so willingly gave to them or the world.

18 Things I Want To Do Now That I'm 18

I'm technically an adult, so I'm legally required to live a little, right?

For the entirety of my high school career, I was always seen as the goody-two-shoes. I never got in trouble with a teacher, I kept stellar grades, and when I wasn't doing extracurricular activities, I was at home studying. Even when I did go out, it was usually with a bunch of fellow band geeks. The night would end before 11:00 PM and the only controversial activity would be a fight based on who unfairly won a round of Apples-to-Apples when someone else clearly had a better card (I promise I'm not still holding a grudge).

Now that I'm officially an adult, I want to pursue some new things. I want to experience life in a way that I never allowed myself to do prior to entering college. These are the years that I'm supposed to embark on a journey of self-discovery, so what better way to do that than to create a bucket list?

The holiday season is full of stress, debt, and forced conversation. While we rush through the month of December, it's important to take a step back and enjoy the moments before they're gone. Most families love to watch Christmas movies, but these beloved films provide more than entertainment. Here are 10 life lessons that I've learned from the holiday classics we watch every year.

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

1."But what would happen if we all tried to be like Santa and learned to give as only he can give: of ourselves, our talents, our love and our hearts? Maybe we could all learn Santa's beautiful lesson and maybe there would finally be peace on Earth and good will toward men."

"Sometimes the most real things in the world are the things we can't see."

"If you won't use your heart, who cares if it gets broken? If you just keep it to yourself, maybe it'll be like my rollerblades. When you do decide to try it, it won't be any good. You should take a chance. Got nothing to lose."

"Remember, no man is a failure who has friends."

"Life is made up of meetings and partings. That is the way of it."

"If you look for it, I've got a sneaky feeling you'll find a that love actually is all around."

"Sometimes things look good on paper, but lose their luster when you see how it affects real folks. I guess a healthy bottom line doesn't mean much if to get it, you have to hurt the ones you depend on."

"'Maybe Christmas,' he thought, 'doesn't come from a store. Maybe Christmas, perhaps, means a little bit more.'"

"Faith is believing when common sense tells you not to."

"There's room for everyone on the nice list."

Hopefully they will make you laugh.
