"Go Kill Yourself" -Anonymous

So, many of you know about the hottest new social trend right now called Sarahah. For anyone who doesn't know what this site is, it's a site where you create an account for yourself to receive "constructive criticism". People are able to go on there and write things about yourself anonymously. The fact that people in college are using this is honestly kind of sad. You're in your twenties and you still need someone to tell you things for you to feel good about yourself.

Why do we care so much about what other people think of us? That shouldn't be important. We don't need someone to tell us we're attractive or for someone else to tell us that we are good at something. This site is honestly one of the dumbest things I have seen in my life. It's really sad how people are depending on other people to make themselves feel good about who they are as a person, or what they look like.

Moving on to the main reason why Sarahah upsets me though, is that it's a great way to cyber bully someone. Although I have not heard of any suicides from this site, it should still be taken down. You can go on there and tell someone to kill themselves and they will never know who said it. You could call someone ugly or say they should've never been born and the person will never know who it was. Personally, I wouldn't want to know who it was. Overall, I think this site is wrong and can turn into something very deadly eventually if it's not taken down soon.

Do as I say, not as I do.

Your eyes widen in horror as you stare at your phone. Beads of sweat begin to saturate your palm as your fingers tremble in fear. The illuminated screen reads, "Missed Call: Mom."

Growing up with strict parents, you learn that a few things go unsaid. Manners are everything. Never talk back. Do as you're told without question. Most importantly, you develop a system and catch on to these quirks that strict parents have so that you can play their game and do what you want.

"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 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.
