39 Texts You Send That Seem Insane To Literally Anybody But Your College Besties

Life in college is entirely different from life in the town you grew up in, and people back home will never understand the millions of inside jokes you have with your college family. There are just some things you can only send your best friends and have it be totally normal.

1. "Grape juice helps build up the immune system of people under stress. Time to buy a vineyard."

2. "I'm about to take a nap because I'm exhausted, but remind me to tell you a story about a squirrel later.”

3. "In my friend group, we have very specific snipe rules."

One does not simply ignore the rules when it comes to taking photos of your friends across campus without their knowledge.

4. "Casually walked into the library as if I wasn't just stalking them and their dog."

5. "Is it actually raining or is the ground just wet?" "No, the ground is sweating profusely after a 5k."

6. "What's the status of the squirrel in the dorm?"


College life is a weird time. Why did this text not surprise me in the slightest?

7. "I actually have no idea what's in the box, but it's nice because it has all these warning signs on it."

8. "We are all full and equal members of this cult."

9. "We do not choose to become a secret of the Santa, the Santa chooses you."


Who doesn't love Secret Santa parties with their friends?

10. "What's it called when you go to the library with coffee in one hand and a double shot in your bag? Other than sad." "Survival."

11. "So what I'm getting out of all of this is that each and every one of us is a jaded, debatably sleep deprived, college student that is still awake despite said sleep deprivation. Do I have that all right?"


Every five-minute increment counts.

12. "Your friend is currently unavailable because he's dying from finals." "Is this the answering machine?" "I'm sorry, the old friend can't come to the phone right now. Why? Because he's dead."


Oh, finals week. We find ourselves here again.

13. "Everyone knows the moon's just a large cardboard cutout that a government issue plane drags around the sky."

14. "I have homemade spaghetti bolognese sauce in my freezer, and I feel like an adult."


It's the little things in life.

15. "I tried to ctrl-z on my handwritten notes one time."

16. "Chicken is a spice if you think about it hard enough."

17. "I think it's time to break out the potatoes."


When dining hall food doesn't cut it, sometimes you need to make your own.

18. "The information age is NOW. (But only if you have a computer.)"

19. "Anonymous is spelled 'a-non-why-mouse'—but without the 'e'."

While you aren't wrong, that's still an interesting way to put it.

20. "Nobody told me my eyebrows are upside down."

21. "On a scale from invading Russia in the winter to key lime pie, how is the cake?”

22. "I feel like a baby kangaroo."


This is basically live footage of my friend and the bungee chair involved.

23. "Can you explain my thought process and why I go from one thought to a thought that is seven times removed from the original one?"

24. "This is G-rated grape juice. The sparkling is swanky, PG-13 rated grape juice. Wine is R rated grape juice."


Stay classy, ladies and gentlemen.

25. "I just blew on my ice cream to try to make it warmer.”

26. “Don’t touch my white cheddar popcorn hands. They’re whiter than usual.”

27. “Isn’t it weird how people live in houses?”


Let's take our thought trains back a few stops, shall we?

28. “The faster you drink your first cup of coffee the sooner you can get a second cup of coffee.”

29. "My ID looks like it's sunburnt and peeling."

30. "Nap times are better with friends."


Dorm rooms are pretty small, so this is an accurate representation of us trying to fit way too many people on the floor.

31. "You know you're up too late when you start getting hungry again."

32. "If you get a B- in one of my classes, you have to be a vegetable."

33. "I have mastered the art of sleeping."

As college students, we take every single opportunity we get to squeeze in a nap.

34. "One guy in my group knows as much computer science as a potato."

35. "Why is his bookbag so heavy?" "The weight of all his problems."


Naturally, it's physics homework.

36. "Has 'Shambles Table' started yet?"

37. "You're addicted, and you need a Set support group."

38. "These three towns are the middle of nowhere. I live in the middle of those; therefore, I live in the middle of the middle of nowhere—near Courage the Cowardly Dog, apparently."

39. "Good thing I wore my Hawaiian shirt because this is a sauna."

* * *

Every friend group is different from the next, but I think there are still a few things on this list that we all share. There's no way to list every single golden quote that has ever come from my friends, but this list should still give you a pretty good idea of what our lives as a squad are like.

I thought senioritis in high school was rough until I became a college senior about to go into the real world. I'm supposed to have everything figured out, right? I mean I went through four years of tough classes and serious self-searching (and crying). What I found overall was Senioritis sneaking up on me.

College is filled with many things, and we're so often lectured to make the right decisions as we head out on our own into the college life. But sometimes it's necessary to indulge in some guilty pleasures as well as just doing things because you can. And honestly, a lot of the time it's inevitable. College is no piece of cake that's for sure, so it's okay to do some things you deep down know you shouldn't....once in a while anyways.
