"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.

Don't get me wrong, I think Thanksgiving is great and can't wait for it, but nothing gives me greater joy than watching Freeform's 25 Days of Christmas, lighting peppermint scented candles, decking the halls, and baking gingerbread cookies. So while we approach the greatest time of the year, let's watch the 15 best Christmas movies of all time.

6 Signs You Are An English Major

There are various stereotypes about college students, most of which revolve around the concept of your major. Unfortunately, we often let stereotypes precede our own judgments, and we take what information is immediately available to us rather than forming our own opinions after considerable reflection. If I got a dollar for every time my friends have made a joke about my major I could pay my tuition. One stereotype on campus is the sensitive, overly critical and rigid English major. Here are six telltale signs you are one of them.

When you were little, your parents probably told you television makes your brain rot so you wouldn't watch it for twelve straight hours. However, I feel we can learn some pretty valuable stuff from television shows. "The Office," while a comedy, has some pretty teachable moments thrown in there. You may not know how to react in a situation where a co-worker does something crazy (like put your office supplies in jello) but thanks to "The Office," now you'll have an idea how to behave ifsomething like that should happen.

Here are just a few of the things that religious Office watchers can expect to learn.
