25 Phrases We Are All Embarrassingly Guilty Of Saying To Our Uber Driver

Picture this, your hair is perfectly pin-straight, your heels are pretty much impossible to walk in, and you are 5 shots deep before heading off to the bars with your girlfriends. All of a sudden, the unthinkable happens.

It starts to rain.

You easily whip out your Uber app, charge your friends who you are splitting the fare with, and patiently wait 5-10 minutes for your mysterious driver to pick you up. How is this ride going to go? Will the driver be cute? What if he smells the alcohol off my breath?

Uber is all fun and games once you receive the "Your Uber's Here" notification when you are with your girlfriends heading off to the bars. Ladies, we all KNOW we are guilty of bothering our Uber driver with these embarrassing phrases.


1."So.... how long have you been an Uber driver?"

2. "Whats your name? Tim? Have you driven to any cool spots yet tonight, Tim?"

3. "Do you have any funny stories you could tell us?"

4. "What is your favorite part about being an Uber driver?"

5. "You could come to the bar with us if you want, you seem pretty chill."

6. *Screams at friend about the boy at the party you hooked up with and are dreading to see* "I'm so sorry you had to hear that"

7. "What's your worst Uber experience?"

8. "Has anyone ever thrown up in this car before?"

9. "Do you actually like driving all day and all night?"

10. "Wait, I actually don't think you are our Uber..."

11. "How did you even become an Uber driver in the first place?"

12. "Can I have AUX..."

13. *Driver doesn't play any music at all* "Well, isn't this awkward"

14. *Explains entire life story in a span of 5 minutes even though it was not necessary in the slightest bit* "So yeah, because of that I could never, ever trust her again"

15. "Does your family know this is what you do for a living"

16. *Drunkenly screaming at the driver* "You are the BEST UBER I EVER HAD"

17. "Is there a way you could maybe be my personal driver all the time?"

18. "Are you in a relationship?"

19. *Silently (not silent at all, actually) whispers to your friend* "I hope he isn't in a relationship"

20. "I'm honestly going to give you a 5 star rating, you were great sir - keep doing you"

21. "Oh my god you are going the complete opposite way of where we need to be"

22."OMG I LOVE this song!" *starts aggressively dancing in the back seat*

23. "I don't think this is the right location, would you mind taking us here instead"

24. "Wow it smells really nice in here" 

25. *Everyone in unison* "Thank you!"

One of the most dreaded places on campus is the library. Nothing awesome ever happens here. Usually, the only reason you're here is because you've procrastinated so long that the library is the only place you'll actually get stuff done. It gives you this feeling of sadness and impending doom. You have no idea how this is going to go or how long you'll be here, but you do know it is about to be the most excruciating experiences yet. But it has to get done, so you drag yourself to the lovely library.

It is that time of year again. Christmastime. It is one of my favorite seasons for a myriad of reasons. Here are just a few reasons why I love Christmas. This list is in no order of importance.

It is a great stress reliever for me to just sit in my living room and work on the huge amount of work I have before the semester is over.
