I'm not ashamed to admit that I love watching TV.

There are a few shows that never fail to make me laugh and have major re-watchability: Brooklyn 99, 30 Rock, Arrested Development, Friends, and Parks and Recreation.

Part of what makes these shows so special is the following one-liners that can be worked into everyday conversations.

1. "Cool, cool, cool, cool." - Jake Peralta: Brooklyn 99

Customer: "I'm not going to get these. *Grunts while lifting 5 pairs of jeans, 10 dresses, 3 pairs of shoes and 4 t-shirts onto counter.*

You: "Cool, cool, cool, cool."

2. "Blerg" - Liz Lemon: 30 Rock

Giphy

Annoyed with your significant other? "Blerg!" Are the dishes piling up? "Blerg!" The plans you made two weeks ago and don't want to do anymore aren't getting canceled? "Blerg."

3. "I want to go to there." - Liz Lemon: 30 Rock

Tenor

When you get home from your last 12-hour shift before the weekend and you see that sweet, sweet bed.

"I want to go to there."

Looking at pictures of literally any beach.

"I want to go to there."

Daydreaming about moving to a state that doesn't get pummeled with snow during a bizzard.

"I want to go to there."

"I know!!!" - Monica Geller: Friends

Giphy

Customer: "The doors are locked"

You: "I KNOW!!!" Go home Karen. It's 10 o'clock.

Significant other: "You were right."

You: "I KNOW!!"

"I've made a huge mistake." - Everyone: Arrested Development

Giphy

You: "I have to be up at 4, I should go to bed at 7."

You, lying in bed decorating your entire future home on Pinterest: "I've made a huge mistake."

"Treat yo self." - Tom Haverford and Donna Meagle: Parks and Recreation

Tenor

Me to me: "I really shouldn't have this chocolate molten lava cake."

Also, me to me: "Treat yo self."

"No touching!" - George Bluth Sr.: Arrested Development

Giphy

You: "NO TOUCHING!" *When literally anyone touches you without your permission.*

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.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
