The Best Cartoon Couples Of All Time

Run down of our favorite animated Valentines

The Best Cartoon Couples Of All Time
Disney Corporation

When we were kids, nothing was as fun as waking up on Saturday morning, getting a fresh bowl of cereal (shout out to you, Cocoa Pebbles) and turning on the TV for some hilarious cartoons. While the real world never had talking bunnies, feuding cats and mice, or a Great Dane with not only the ability to speak, but solve intricate mysteries, cartoons did reflect many human characteristics. A classic theme was cartoon relationships: every show had some sort of link between certain characters. With Valentine’s Day approaching, let’s look back at the animated couples we loved the most.

Mickey and Minnie Mouse

This one shouldn’t come as a surprise. Since the late 1920s, Mickey and Minnie have not only been a staple in the world of cartoon relationships, but two of the most recognizable American cartoons. Through the years, which have seen multiple versions of the famous couple, Mickey and Minnie have remained together. Today, you can’t go to Disney World without seeing the two mascots walking together throughout the park, talking to children and holding hands. It’s a wonder the two aren’t already married. Two in love, clothed and talking mice: major goals.

Fred Jones and Daphne Blake

Technically, Fred and Daphne were never a couple. Along with Velma, Shaggy and of course Scooby-Doo, the two solved mysteries across the country, never really seeming to show any interest in each other. But c’mon, it was obvious. Why else did Fred prefer to “split up and look for clues” with solely Daphne, casting Velma off to look around with a scared-cat hippie and a talking dog? Maybe their abilities to get to the bottom of a mystery influenced them to have a private mysterious relationship of their own?

Mike Wazowski & Celia

Growing up, one of my favorite (although scary at the time) movies was Monsters Inc. And, although debatable, one of the best scenes occurs during Mike and his snake-hair girlfriend Celia’s Valentine’s Day dinner. Referring to each other as “Smoochie Poo” and “Googly Bear”, these two are the epitome of young, blind, monstrous love. And though little Boo, terrorizing the monsters after her door remained activated, put considerable strain on their relationship, they remain a unforgettable couple of the cartoon universe.


Lady & Tramp

While there are plenty of dog stories based around love (looking at you, 101 Dalmatians), Lady & The Tramp remains one of the most iconic cartoon moments in history. Nothing can get more Disney than a story of two dogs (that, naturally, speak fluent English) from opposite social and economic backgrounds and lifestyles, that fall helplessly in love. If anything, it teaches us that love can be found anywhere, with anyone, even over a plate of leftover spaghetti in a dirty alleyway.

Today I started my third week of college at Minnesota State Moorhead. I have survived welcome week, finding my classes on the first day, and being an awkward loner in the dining hall. Even though I have yet to be here for a month, I have already experienced many thoughts and problems that only a new college student can relate to.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.

For a moment your world is spinning. The phone alarm has just scared you awake and you’re flooded by daunting thoughts of the day ahead. You have three assignments due and little time to work on them because of your job. You’re running late because you’ve hit snooze one to many times after yesterday’s long hours. You dizzily reach for a hoodie, craving its comfort, and rush for a speedy exit, praying you will have time to pick up coffee. Does this sound familiar?

Finals week is upon us. It is a magical time of year during which college students everywhere flock to the library in attempt to learn a semester's worth of knowledge in only a week. For some students, it's their first time in the library all semester, maybe ever. Others have slaved away many nights under the fluorescent lights, and are slightly annoyed to find their study space being invaded by amateurs. While these newbies wander aimlessly around the first floor, hopelessly trying to find a table, the OGs of the library are already on the third floor long tables deep into their studies. Here is a few signs that you may live in the library, whether you'd like to admit it or not.
