If you're a current college student, and you haven't been overly obsessed with Shameless, are you really living? For those who don't know, Shameless is the greatest show ever. It is about an awful single father of six who spends much of his free time drinking at bars. This makes the oldest sister basically become in charge of the whole family. Sounds stressful right? Probably. However, you will want to be a part of this funny, wild family in the end. We all want to be a Gallagher. Odds are, we know someone who acts just like every character in this show in our classes or around campus. Here is who each character would be if they went to your college.
Frank Gallagher:
We are all low-key Frank. After a long Friday night, everyone turns into Frank the next morning. We're starving, poor, and extremely cranky. We probably lost our friends at the party the night before. Maybe you even slept outside. Who knows. It's the sad truth but we are all Frank.
Debbie Gallagher:
That one girl who asks a question when there are only 2 minutes left in the class. This is also the girl who is way too into everyone else's business. You might be talking to someone about your weekend and she somehow jumps into the conversation, yet gets deeply offended when someone doesn't listen to her. She rushed the same sorority as you and the whole time you were praying she would get dropped. She probably is trying to steal your man too. Stay away from people like this.
Carl Gallagher:
Probably the campus adderall dealer. He only shows up to class when theres a final, and sometimes he doesn't even show up to that. He's super dedicated to his frat, but that's about it. He's "cuffed" to a different girl every 5 days, yet everyone wants to take him to formal.
Lip Gallagher:
The love of everyone's lives, hello have you seen this man? He's in the best frat, and actually has emotions. 10/10 student. He's on the dean's list too. You love him, your professors love him, your parents don't even know him, but they love him. He probably has no clue you exist, but you follow each other on Instagram so who cares.
Fiona Gallagher:
The most stressed out student around. Probably a tour guide on campus, volunteers at blood drives, running for president of her sorority, and still maintains a somewhat solid social life. No one really knows how she manages to do 12 different things at once, but she seems to kill it every time.
Sheila Jackson:
She seems to spend her Friday nights binge watching cooking shows. She should really go out more, but just can't seem to make many friends. She also is a bit of a cougar and goes for the freshmen boys. No one really understands what's her deal is, but she's an entertainment to all.
Ian Gallagher:
Your best guy friend. He's in the friend-zone, but odds are he doesn't even care. You can always depend on him to listen to your problems, and he'll probably freak out with you. He'll force you to go to the gym with him and make you also look super bad at the gym. Overall, great kid who is just figuring out life one step at a time.
Mandy Milkovich:
You'll get the worse vibes from this girl. She always looks like she wants to punch someone in the face. Odds are she has hooked up with all of your guy friends. She'll probably get a boyfriend mid-junior year and it'll ruin her reputation of being "heartless". Her whole life will turn around and everyone will realize that she has changed and maybe she'll get some friends. Who knows.
Mickey Milkovich:
Yup, he's related to the heartless sister. Siblings that go to the same college are always an odd bunch. They're either way too close, or act like they don't exist. This kid is probably trying to have the whole "bad-boy" vibe, but no one falls for it. You'll see him walking around campus with his sunglasses and headphones on, even when it is raining. A little weird.
Veronica & Kevin:
They've been dating since high school, somehow have every class together, and never leave each other. They'll probably get engaged by sophomore year and have 4 babies by senior year.
Shameless is really such a messed up, but hilarious show. I strongly recommend it for everyone, except my parents.
