Netflix's Biggest And Best Kept Secret
minecraftawesome.wikia.com

This might just be the most life-changing article you have ever read, so be ready for your mind to be blown. For 90 percent of college students, Netflix is a way of life. It's what we rush through our homework for, it's our date on a Saturday night, it's our best friend when we are sick and lying in bed. My four-year relationship with Netflix has always been filled with good times and laughs, but recently I’ve started to lose interest and get bored. It seems as though I have seen every movie, re-watched every TV series twice and can recite every documentary word-for-word. I even started cheating on my relationship with Netflix when I got an account on Hulu. Feeling terrible about my betrayal, I did research to try and find a way to rekindle the flame with bae (Netflix).

Last year, when I went on a trip to Mexico I logged onto my Netflix account and something magical happened! I was greeted by my home screen completely filled with new movies and TV shows that I had never seen before. This foreign Netflix was something only dreams are made of.

It wasn’t until recently that I figured out how to bring foreign Netflix to me in the U.S., AKA Netflix’s best kept secret.By changing your browser, you are able to log onto Netflix from hundreds of different countries. This means new movies and TV shows not currently available to Netflix users in the United States. Here are the steps.

1. Download Google Chrome.

2. Google “Hola” and download the Chrome Hola extension.

3. On the right-hand side, you will see a fire symbol with a smiley face.

4. Click on the happy fire symbol and you will be able to change the country you are browsing from.

By following these directions, you are able to browse online and log into Netflix from every country imaginable. Now, your options on Netflix are limitless!

Now that it seems “talking” is the new way to date, and will stay that way until another idiotic term is used to describe the people who can’t settle down and just date someone, I feel as if it’s time to go over the unwritten rules of “talking.”

Rule 1. Having feeling without feeling.

What's up Asshat,

I've composed a list of things that I wish upon you, and they're harsh and cruel. These things are things that I wouldn't wish upon my worst of enemies, not even that Starbuck's barista who always screws up my order, not even him. You fall into a whole other category of hate. You surpass Starbucks barista. Congratulations, I'm actually a pretty nice person, making you worthy of every single bit of torture I wish upon you. What are these things I wish upon you you might ask?
