I love television shows. For me they are an escape, a way to live vicariously in fantastic worlds and situations I could never experience in the real world. I love almost every TV shows I have invested time in watching. They are amazing works of art, brilliant fusions of illusion and reality with a touch of magic.

But sometimes, a show (or four) comes along that gets under my skin, and not necessarily in a good way. I hate some shows. Hate them. Hate.

But I LOVE to hate them! I never ever want to watch them, but when I finally turn on an episode I can't stop and I love to bash the characters for the entire episode and just generally complain about every aspect. Here's a brief description of each one, and why I love/hate them!


1. Last Man On Earth

This show is about a guy who wakes up one day to find himself the very last man on earth. He travels around America doing whatever he pleases until one day he stumbles upon something that changes everything.

This guy's name is Phil Miller. I hate Phil. He is a whiny moron who is such horrible person. Everything he does irritates me. Even his face is stupid. Look at it. Look at his psycho face.

But at the same time, this show is so good! It's creative, well written, and the cliffhangers are killer. Even the character development got really good. I keep watching. You should watch it too.


2. It's Always Sunny In Philadelphia

This crazy show has been on for 12 seasons, and it's insane. The characters are all terrible people with absolutely no redeeming qualities and more than borderline sociopathic tendencies. They are creepy, selfish, trash people.

But they are hilarious. The trouble they get into is so ridiculous, and their plans to fix the situations are even more unbelievable. I shake my head at how stupid it is, but I can't help binge watching this show whenever it is on. Worth the watch!


3. The Mick

The Mick is the newest show I'm watching. Although technically I'm not watching it, since I protest every time my husband turns it on. What I do is secretly watch it over his shoulder and laugh quietly to myself when I'm supposed to be studying, or asleep. Mickey is a terrible aunt who unexpectedly becomes the guardian of her sister's children. This is definitely one woman who should never, ever be allowed to be left alone with children, much less be put in charge of their daily welfare.

This show has me hooked, and I love to shake my head at Mickey and gasp over the daily danger she subjects the kids to, while simultaneously complaining about how much danger she puts the kids in.


4. The Office

This show... this show... People have many strong feelings about this show, either love or hate. I can't decide if it even belongs on my list because I can't decide if I love it, hate it, or love to hate it. I think mostly I just hate it. I despise Michael and Dwight, the manager and assistant paper of a paper supply company, who run their office with incredible incompetence. Daily harassment, lies, errors, and embarrassing situations plague the office. Pam, the receptionist is the shows only saving grace, and even she always looks like she wants to die.

And so do I when I watch this show. But I do it anyway.

What about you? Do you have any love/hate relationships like I do? Drop me your story in the comments! And check out these shows so we can love/hate them together!

The Daily Struggles of Being a College Commuter

It's not all morning coffees and singing along to the radio.

The Daily Struggles of Being a College Commuter
morethanwheels

I've been in college for four years now. I spent half my time as a commuter and half as a resident so I've experienced both sides of the housing spectrum. One thing I've learned comparing the two is that my struggles as a commuter far outweigh anything I went through while living on campus. Commuters have to deal with the problems school brings along with a slew of other issues; I've filled up my gas tank in the worst kind of weather conditions and napped in random places in public more times than I'm proud to say of. This is a list of some of the most challenging aspects of being a commuter.

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!
