A Few Reasons Why Seagulls Should Go Extinct
Ashlyn Edmondo

As I've been sitting and enjoying myself by the hotel pool here in San Diego for my cousin's wedding, I've had a few menacing visitors! The seagulls just never stop. They're everywhere, bugging and stealing and "mine,mine, mine-ing" (for those of you who have seen finding nemo)! I discussed with my cousins some reasons why seagulls should just go extinct!


1. They steal sunscreen.

Talking to my cousin, she told me she had a seagull steal her sunscreen right out of her hands!


2. They are just plain aggressive birds!

Seagulls will do anything for a bite of food or to steal something. Watch out, they'll bite you!


3. They live in places that aren't even the sea.

For my devout followers, you know I live close to Lake Tahoe, and seagulls are residents of Lake Tahoe as well! Darn birds ruining our mountain lake!


4. They poop on you.

This one is pretty self explanatory for all birds. They poop like any other animal, but for Seagulls, I think it is intentional!


5. They aren't afraid of humans.

Seagulls will walk up to any of us humans and strike up a conversation like we're old friends! You may try to shoo it away, but that never seems to work!


6. They steal breadsticks straight out of your hand.

My family and I were at the San Diego zoo years back and my sister had a breadstick in her hand while up on my dads shoulders. A seagull dive bombed and swiped the breadstick right out of her hand! Lesson learned, don't eat breadsticks on dad's shoulders!


7. They were perfectly portrayed in finding Nemo.

Whenever anyone sees a seagull they say, "mine!"


8. They have seagull telepathy.

When there's food or people on a beach with food, they swarm. They jump you like some kind of seagull gang!


9. They stare into your soul.

Seagulls want to make sure you know that they are the superior species, but that is not the case.

Seagulls are a menace to society and bug the human race. I know wishing extinction on an animal is harsh, but man, seagulls are awful!

"Friends" maybe didn’t have everything right or realistic all the time, but they did have enough episodes to create countless reaction GIFs and enough awesomeness to create, well, the legacy they did. Something else that is timeless, a little rough, but memorable? Living away from the comforts of home. Whether you have an apartment, a dorm, your first house, or some sort of residence that is not the house you grew up in, I’m sure you can relate to most of these!

There is nothing quite like family.

Family is kinda like that one ex that you always find yourself running back to (except without all the regret and the angsty breakup texts that come along with it).

No matter how long your class is, there's always time for the mind to wander. Much like taking a shower or trying to fall asleep, sitting in a classroom can be a time when you get some of your best ideas. But, more than likely, you're probably just trying to mentally cope with listening to a boring lecturer drone on and on. Perhaps some of the following Aristotle-esque thoughts have popped into your head during class.

Bob's Burgers
Adult Swim

Bob's Burgers is arguably one of the best and most well-written shows on tv today. That, and it's just plain hilarious. From Louise's crazy antics to Tina's deadpan self-confidence, whether they are planning ways to take over school or craft better burgers, the Belchers know how to have fun. They may not be anywhere close to organized or put together, but they do offer up some wise words once and awhile.

We're in college, none of us actually have anything together. In fact, not having anything together is one of our biggest stressors. However, there's a few little things that we do ever so often that actually make us feel like we have our lives together.

1. Making yourself dinner

And no this does not include ramen or Annie's Mac & Cheese. Making a decent meal for yourself is one of the most adult things you can do living on campus. And the food is much better than it would be at the dining hall.
