Why Gibby Is My Spirit Animal (And Should Be Yours, Too)

The kid we all grew to love in the show, iCarly

Why Gibby Is My Spirit Animal (And Should Be Yours, Too)
icarly.com

Throwback to the days when we were younger and many of us were huge fans of the show, iCarly. There was always that one character in particular that everyone would question, but everyone loved. Even Michelle Obama is on #TeamGibby.

He has his own catchphrase

Whenever he walks into the room and realizes he has done something right, he always proceeds to say, “Gibbaay!” Apparently, the pronunciation is Gibbehhhh. But, this catchphrase is much more drawn out and very much said better by the man himself, The Gibster. It becomes a welcome to him later that everyone yells at him. GIBBAAY!


His little brother is exactly like him

His little brother, Guppy, is the spitting image of Gibby. He says the cutest things as well, such as, “I love cheese,” and “Happy Birthday!” To the average joe these phrases seem normal and everyday. But in the show, Guppy’s sayings are cuter than a large pack of puppy corgis. If that isn't a good enough comparison, I don't know what is.


He is in a long-term relationship

Of all people, Gibby has been in a relationship since 2009. As tweens we were all jealous of his relationship. If a way to a girl’s heart is a jacket with the zipper pulled down to show a little chest and a little leave-in conditioner, he’s doing it right. Even after she is caught falling on top of Freddie, he still gives her another chance. And he thinks he’s a player as well. Sam asks Gibby to the Girl’s Choice Dance, and he says, “Nah, I’m good.” Man Gibby, you have some serious game. He’s even as romantic enough to send Tasha a video message when he misses her and then walks Tasha to her car. Guys, start taking notes.


His singing voice is special

He’s so good he almost got Harry Styles kicked out of One Direction. Also, he set the mood when Sam and Freddie were kissing by singing, Loving You is My Favorite Thing To Do. Someone get this man a Grammy.


No Shirt, No Shoes, No Service

No shirt doesn’t apply to Gibby. Apparently in Season 4, there is only one episode he takes his shirt off. Every other season though, does he really ever have a shirt on? But the real question is, why does he always take his shirt off? No one really knows. Gibby treats us a great lesson on self-confidence.

Strange things make Gibby sad.

Some of these things include macaroni without cheese, power tools and bread crumbs. Why?


A side of Gibby comes with a lot of nicknames

Some of these are Gibby, Giblets, The Gibster, Gibbles, and so many more. If only we could have that many nicknames, that we respond to.


Gibby doesn’t care about his haters

He doesn’t care about what people think. Whether he is rubbing up against fat cakes, taking videos of his cat, or rocking the tin foil pants, the only thing he cares about is that his mom thinks he is awesome.


In the end, puberty treated Gibby the best out of anyone

If only we all didn’t tease Gibby so much in the past. In the puberty awards, the most improved goes to Gibby.


So thank you, Gibby, for all the shirtless dancing and hours of laughter you have provided to us over the years.

A three-and-a-half-hour runtime. Nine Eras. Eleven outfit changes. Three surprise songs. Zero breaks. One unforgettable evening. In the past century, no other performer has put on an electric performance quite like Taylor Swift, surpassing her fans ‘wildest dreams’. It is the reason supporters keep coming back to her shows each year. Days later, I’m still in awe of the spectacle ‘Miss Americana’ puts on every few days in a new city. And, like one of Taylor’s exes, has me smiling as I reminisce about the memories of the night we spent together.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
