Open Letter to People Who Write Open Letters

Dear People Who Write Open Letters,

I know it seems counter-intuitive to write an open letter explaining why you need to stop writing your stupid open letters, I get that, but I thought it would be the best way to get your attention, considering you love these stupid articles so much.

The truth is, no one cares. People are so bogged down with all of this content that people put on the internet, that they really don’t care, and you’re worthless opinions that are back-handedly directed toward your ex-boyfriend, ex-best friend or whatever or whoever it may be, no one cares. Sure, plenty of people relate to that garbage, the number of shares don’t lie, but really, no one cares. We all get screwed over sometimes, does that mean you need to write a passive aggressive (come on, don’t lie, all open letters are passive-aggressive) letter to someone who spited you? Wow, you lived through a relatable experience. Congratulations. You had an experience that literally every other normal human being goes through, good for you. Sure its nice to know that we’re not alone in this world and our experiences are valid, but do we all need to write letters to a boy who doesn’t love us?

So, let’s get it together. Let’s stop being passive aggressive and let’s stop writing these God-awful open letters. Can we do that? Can we work toward that goal instead of spending an hour of our time writing an article to whine about some dumb boy and then share it on the internet? We’re all better than that. We do not need any more of that behavior. Stop it right now. You are better than that, and to the people sharing this trash, you are also better than that. Stop sharing it, and this trend will end.

Thank you. Please cease and desist.

For some of us, coming to college was the first time we ever had to share a room. It was a big change, but a fun one. As you meet more and more people over the course of your college career, it seems to be a pattern that you will at some point have that one friend that doesn't live with you, but acts like they do. We call those people, "Honorary Roommates" and here are 11 signs you have one in your life.

We all have a person, and when that person makes some new friends, we tend to forget all the great things that can come out of it. Never forget how special they are to you and why you are best friends.

Toilet Troubles

"So, usually I would never go on a Tinder date but when you are out with girlfriends and a hot Bosnian guy says he wants to hang with you and his friends, you oblige. We head to their apartment and when I realized I may pee my pants if I don't find a bathroom soon. I ask for the bathroom and a friend of my tinder date shows me to it and said in all seriousness that I was not allowed to flush the toilet under ANY circumstances. Having a few drinks--or five--I relieved myself to, nevertheless, flush the toilet. Within seconds, his bathroom was flooded and towels were laid out everywhere to catch the toilet water. To say the least, we were not invited back"
