The 11 Feelings You Have When Your Favorite Show Ends
Vogue

When your favorite show ends, there are certain feelings that are just unavoidable. You clearly feel lost without your show on whatever night it typically airs, but nothing can explain the torture that is losing your best friends (a.k.a. the characters of the show).

1. Emptiness

You have been through an emotional roller coaster. You have lost characters that you have grown so attached and accustomed to, and there is something about that loss that is actually difficult. Those characters and actors will never understand how the affected you and this leaves you somewhat empty.

2. Loneliness

What to do when you are alone and have no show to watch? You sit and ponder your life.

3. Boredom

Pondering you life, without television and your favorite show, will grow old and you will become bored af. Trying to be outside or make friends is a little too much energy.

4. The Struggle Of Trying To Find A New Show... How Can You Ever Replace Your Favorite Of Anything?

Nothing can replace your show. You are in no state to even try to start looking for other options. Much like a breakup, you reply scenes in your head and wonder why you cannot be together forever?

5. The Re-watching Phase

Because you are in no state to find another show, you revert to watching the show you have already seen through. Sure you know what is going to happen, but it is fun to see everything come together, evolve, and be set-up when you know how the series finale will end.

6. Denial Over The Ending And How It Ended

While you may have seen the end, this does not mean you agree with it. Many people struggle with the endings of their favorite series, regardless of how successful the series was as a whole. People just do not want their shows to end. Much like Harry Potterfans, series fans await the day of an unwritten sequel.

7. Anger

You start placing blame on the actors, directors, and producers as to why they would ever end the show. It feels personal, because it is.

8. Being Easily Agitated While Also Asking Yourself "Why" Over And Over Again

Why would anyone do this to me?

9. Acceptance

Eventually, you come to a point where you realize all good things must come to an end. For a show, this is usually to preserve the success of the show and not let it get too overdone.

10. Moving On

The ending of one thing is never so bad when you start an new beginning.

11. Eventual Happiness With A Your New Favorite Show

There are so many great television shows. While we all have our favorites, and the key word there is favorites - AKA multiple -- we all do need some smaller shows to keep our sanity intact.

The Unwritten Rules Of "Talking"

What is "talking?" How does one "talk?"

Now that it seems “talking” is the new way to date, and will stay that way until another idiotic term is used to describe the people who can’t settle down and just date someone, I feel as if it’s time to go over the unwritten rules of “talking.”

Rule 1. Having feeling without feeling.

What's up Asshat,

I've composed a list of things that I wish upon you, and they're harsh and cruel. These things are things that I wouldn't wish upon my worst of enemies, not even that Starbuck's barista who always screws up my order, not even him. You fall into a whole other category of hate. You surpass Starbucks barista. Congratulations, I'm actually a pretty nice person, making you worthy of every single bit of torture I wish upon you. What are these things I wish upon you you might ask?
