Why We Shouldn't Let The Debate About Pineapple On Pizza Divide Us As A Nation

The decadent fruit really can tear us apart.

It seems that everything, even topics that shouldn't be, become controversial. Trying to make others see things your way, and being offended and debating everything that comes society's way. But, there's one big debate that might never leave Facebook, and that's pineapple on a pizza.

That's right, you heard me. Pineapple on pizza is a debate.

Pineapple on a pizza traditionally comes on a Hawaiian pizza, which also contains ham. You either hear of people absolutely hating it or loving it. There isn't anything in-between.

I personally like it and don't mind when it's there, or it isn't.

Though the long debate if fruit belongs on a pizza probably will never cease, we shouldn't let this tear us as a nation right down the middle. We love pizza, and pizza loves people. Pizza is something we as a nation can come together and love, and sing kuhm-by-ah. In this day and age, a family get-together can be ruined because someone decided to be a drama queen, and make a big deal about the pineapple. Besides, it's not like the presidential debate, people! It isn't the situation where it comes down to you have to chose one person over another, if someone is ordering pizza and has pineapple on everyone, you can simply pick it off. There won't be any juice left, just empty voids where you decided delicious pineapple doesn't deserve a spot. I've seen full-blown arguments on social media about this exact situation. These were even uglier than pre-election days.

Whether your stance is for pineapple on pizza or not, we shouldn't let this tear us apart from and with the ones we love.

But, there is one thing we can all agree on: ketchup does not, and never will belong on, mac-n-cheese.

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.
