11 Things That Don't Make Any Sense Whatsoever

Zimbio

1. Rudeness

What is the point of being rude to someone? Someone please explain it to me because I honestly don’t get it. I also honestly don’t understand when someone goes out of their way to be rude to one. Like do you not have something better to do? If not, then please find something because one’s rudeness is unwanted.

2. Standardized Tests

Like, come on. Why do I have to sit in a room for hours on end praying I do well? Like, sorry not all of us are amazing testers or unreal guessers.

3. Electoral College

Why do we need this? Why doesn’t the popular vote automatically win? For everyone’s vote to actually count, then the popular vote needs to win. It makes no sense how one can win an election but lose in popularity…

4. Grammar

Semicolon versus a colon. Like the only difference I see is that a semicolon has a comma in it. Why can we sometimes use a fragment for artistic style but other times it's shunned?

5. Tears

Why do tears come out of your eyes when you’re happy and sad? Does your body just go, “Oh, this is a good time for water to come out of you…” Like why? What do tears have to do with my mental mood?

6. Stress

This society could live without stress. Stress causes unneeded emotional drama. It causes our hair to turn gray way earlier than predicted.

7. Bobby Pins

They do not work. They can’t tame any of your hair. If you’re lucky you could get a single hair to be held back by a bobby pin. But most of the time you can not even get the single hair to fit in the bobby pin.

8. Black Friday

I have been one of those crazy shoppers who went to Black Friday. However, these Black Friday “deals” do not exist. They are no better than holiday deals or random seasonal deals.

9. Crocs

What are their purpose? People wear them in the water, okay. But in the winter…how are they going to help? The snow is going to go through the holes and into the crocs… like what is the point?

10. Pizza without toppings

What is the point of eating pizza? It is just cheese and tomato. How is that a good combination?

11. Folding Clothes

Why do you have to fold them? You are just going to be digging through your drawers anyways…The clothes are going to get messed up in the drawer anyway.

14 Examples Of Twenty-Somethings #Adulting

#Adulting is hard.

University of Minnesota Twin Cities

Huffington Post

I think the hardest thing about going away to college is figuring out how to become an adult. Leaving a household where your parents took care of literally everything (thanks, Mom!) and suddenly becoming your own boss is overwhelming. I feel like I'm doing a pretty good job of being a grown-up, but once in awhile I do something that really makes me feel like I'm #adulting. Twenty-somethings know what I'm talking about.

8 Things That Anyone Who Went To A Small School Knows

Sometimes bigger isn't always better.

Essex County, NJ

I went to a small high school, like 120-people-in-my-graduating-class small. It definitely had some good and some bad, and if you also went to a small high school, I’m sure you’ll relate to the things that I went through.

1. If something happens, everyone knows about it

Who hooked up with whom at the party? Yeah, heard about that an hour after it happened. You failed a test? Sorry, saw on Twitter last period. Facebook fight or, God forbid, real fight? It was on half the class’ Snapchat story half an hour ago. No matter what you do, someone will know about it.

16 Things Blondes Are Tired Of Hearing

Please hold your blonde joke.

Another day, another Elle Woods comment. Can’t us blondes get through the day without someone harping at us over the typical stereotypes about who we are? I never understood why a person was judged based upon the hair color they were born with, or the hair color they choose to have (unless you dye your hair blue like Kylie Jenner, I’m still trying to understand why that’s a trend). Nevertheless, as it should be assumed, not everyone is the same. Not all blondes like bright colors and Lilly Pulitzer, and not all blondes claim to identify with Marilyn Monroe. I think the best suggestion to give to people before they make such radical claims is to stop judging a book by its cover. Or in this case, stop judging a blonde by her hair color.
