It's almost fall (the best season by far, don't get me wrong) again and you know what that means: Pumpkin Spice Latte season. It's everywhere — in candles, loaves of bread, I even saw pumpkin spice Frosted Flakes the other day. But the most important PSL flavored thing around is the coffee (obviously.)

People go absolutely nuts when this Starbucks drink gets reintroduced every year. Starbucks even released it early this year so people were going even more nuts.

Honestly, I don't get the hype. I've tasted the latte and it's alright, but I've had better coffee. In my ~very~ unpopular opinion Pumpkin Spice Lattes aren't good and the world would continue to turn without them, but since they do exist, here are 25 things I'd rather do than drink one.

1. Give the class a fun fact about myself

2. Listen to Justin Beiber songs a continuous loop

Giphy

3. Have to survive the summer without air conditioning

Giphy

4. Only be able to watch daytime soap operas for TV for the rest of my life

Giphy

5. Listen to Christmas music all year round

Giphy

Yes, this is a bad thing

6. Run a marathon

Giphy

7. Clean my entire house with a toothbrush

Giphy

8. Use that same toothbrush to brush my teeth

Giphy

9. Laundry for my entire family

Giphy

10. Wash dishes with slimy, unknown food particles still stuck to them

Giphy

11. Shave my head

Giphy

12. Watch only Nicholas Cage movies for the rest of my life

Giphy

13. Walk barefoot through a fire ant bed

Giphy

14. Go Black Friday shopping

Giphy

This too is a bad thing...

15. Always be stuck behind someone driving five miles an hour below the speed limit

16. Have a pop quiz every time I go to class

17. Have lemon juice poured into my eyes

18. Always feel a popcorn kernel stuck between my teeth

19. Only be able to wear soaking wet socks

20. Have my teeth pulled with no anesthetic

21. Get braces again

Giphy

22. Always feel like I have to sneeze

23. Always have a rock stuck in my shoe

24. Relive middle school

Giphy

25. Count blades of grass

Enjoy your Pumpkin Spice everything!

Things People Without A Typical 'Boy Name' or 'Girl Name' Know To Be True

All names should be "unisex names."

Tulane University

1028

There are tons of unisex names that are popular: Taylor, Alex, Bailey, etc. There are also numerous names that are used for both sexes, but they’re not seen as “unisex” yet. People are slowly becoming accustomed to the dual use of these names, but for the most part, in their minds they associate certain names with certain sexes. And that leaves those of us with these names in many awkward situations.

Washington College

CSU

I'm an anthropology major, and I love every minute of it. I couldn't tell you why, but I guess there's just something about studying different lifestyles that absolutely fascinates me. But anthropology majors definitely have our weird sides, especially when you go to a school that is filled with mostly Business and Bio majors. But us weirdos definitely have a lot in common, specifically these 16 things.

14 Things The Extremely Pale Are Tired Of Hearing

I get it... I'm pale.

University of Vermont

2510

Everyone has insecurities, that's just a fact. You didn't ask to be born this way. You didn't ask to inherit the one trait no one else in your family has. And you definitely didn't ask to be this ghostly white. But as soon as you've learned to live with it for a while (less wrinkles later on in life, right? right???) someone has to ruin it for you. They have to flaunt they're perfectly tanned body from Spring Break and hold their sun-kissed skin against yours. But I've had enough... here are the things that perpetually pale individuals are tired of hearing.

Because you need it in your life.
