Take A Break From The Debates

Non controversial topics that we all agree on

Take A Break From The Debates
The Global Muslim Brotherhood Daily Watch

As election day draws nearer, your news feed is continually bombarded with the newest articles on the racist/misogynist thing Trump said and the illegal thing Clinton did, the "I don't normally share my political views on Facebook, but..." Facebook posts, and the intellectually stimulating debates in the comments that you just can't help yourself from reading (but of course you won't comment yourself, because you're above that). Day by day, you find yourself increasingly agitated, disheartened, and basically hating anyone and everyone who dares to express an opinion that is different from yours.

I propose that, for our sanity's sake, we take a break from the debates. So whether you're a Clinton or Trump supporter, Democrat or Republican, Liberal or Conservative, Moderate or Radical, some or none of the above, here are some things I think we can all agree on:

1) Baby animals are adorable

Just look at this little guy!

Could you say no to this face?

I love you.

2) Food is delicious

Some things do taste better than skinny feels.

mmm...bacon

And for all you vegans out there...Here's a sexy salad.

3) More sleep is always a good thing

Unless your friends are nearby with a camera.

4) Chuck Norris wins

Always.

5) Stepping on a Lego HURTS

Like, a lot.

6) No one loves Texas more than Texas

I told you none of this was controversial.

7) Music is great


There's something for everyone I guess.

8) Having a superpower would be awesome


Does the outfit come with it?

9. Foosball is the best game ever

Ok this one might be a little biased...

10) Getting a balloon when you were a kid was the best thing ever

And maybe it still is.

18 Things I Want To Do Now That I'm 18

I'm technically an adult, so I'm legally required to live a little, right?

Happy Birthday Cake

For the entirety of my high school career, I was always seen as the goody-two-shoes. I never got in trouble with a teacher, I kept stellar grades, and when I wasn't doing extracurricular activities, I was at home studying. Even when I did go out, it was usually with a bunch of fellow band geeks. The night would end before 11:00 PM and the only controversial activity would be a fight based on who unfairly won a round of Apples-to-Apples when someone else clearly had a better card (I promise I'm not still holding a grudge).

Now that I'm officially an adult, I want to pursue some new things. I want to experience life in a way that I never allowed myself to do prior to entering college. These are the years that I'm supposed to embark on a journey of self-discovery, so what better way to do that than to create a bucket list?

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.
