You do not need to follow politics to know that Chris Christie's face on Super Tuesday has blown up the Internet. In true Internet fame fashion, his face can now be used as a meme to describe a plethora of situations everyone has been in, regardless of political party.
1. When you show up for a class that has been canceled:
You woke up from your nap in just enough time to realize that you have approximately seven and a half minutes to pull yourself together and run to class. After climbing three flights of stairs in record speed, you walk into a completely dead classroom. After confirming the class time and place, you check your email and see the first message, "Class canceled." You turn around and head right back to snoozeville.
2. Your phone is about to die and you do not have a charger:
Burning all your papers and projects is not a viable route to graduation; so you mosey your way to the back of the library to grab a cubby. After you have written about half of your paper, you decide you have earned a study break. While checking that your recent Instagram pic is at a prime like-per-minute ratio, you notice that your phone has reached the 5 percent danger zone. You sift through your book bag and realize there is no charger. Panic ensues.
3. The research project you spent 15 hours on the night before was optional:
Casually looking through your syllabus you see it in giant bold letters: "Project due." After a mini-freakout, you run to complete the assignment. As you place your pride and joy of the last night into your professor's hands, she meets you with, "Oh yay, I'm so glad you took the time to do this!" She notices your perplexed gaze and says, "This paper was optional since I added an extra exam!" You hold in tears as you head back to your seat.
4. When you miss the due date for a paper by one minute:
As you put the finishing touches on the paper that is due in five minutes, you silently applaud yourself for procrastinating for two weeks but still getting the assignment in on time. You do a quick proofreading and sign into your online Blackboard account to turn in your paper; however, when you click the submit button, you see that in a tiny red box it reads "past due." Tears stream down your cheeks as you close your computer.
5. It snows, but not enough to get classes canceled:
No school equals reruns of "Friends" and mounds of chocolate so obviously, you are hype. Right before you go to bed, you triple-check your weather app to make sure that you are not getting your hopes up for nothing. The next morning you wake up to snow and a text message from CNU Alert saying, "Classes will resume as scheduled."
6. When you look at your bank account after an online shopping spree:
You're in a treat yo' self mood so why not act on it! All of your favorite websites are pulled up on your computer, and you commence to buy everything in sight while repeating, "I had a rough week -- I deserve it." After you make the final purchase, you decide to check your bank account. *screams internally*
7. When Chipotle runs out of white rice right before you need a burrito:
Chipotle is one of the four main food groups, so naturally you make the trek to receive the long-awaited happiness that is a burrito bowl. You arrive and the line is out of the door, but Chipotle is worth it -- Chipotle is always worth it. It is finally your turn to order, and the girl behind the counter tells you that you will have to wait for white rice. You smile through the pain and wait patiently.
8. When your professor assigns a group project:
"Please assign yourself into groups for a project" is the most dreaded phrase uttered by a professor, next to "attendance is mandatory." You scan the room to see if you can find three people who will not completely let you down but are willing to let you do all the work, and you silently hope that your professor will have a sudden change of heart.
9. When you turn on the radio and your favorite song just ended:
You get into your car and turn on the preset radio station, and suddenly the chorus of "What Do You Mean" by Justin Bieber comes on. You are the most hype you have ever been. As you go to sing at the top of your lungs, the song ends, and an advertisement for a Chevy dealership ruins your jam session.
10. When you find a free version of the textbook you already bought online:
You finally got the hard cover copy of the most obscure textbook that could ever be assigned. You bargain-hunted the best you could, but you had to bite the bullet and spend over $200. You walk into the first day only to find out there was a free version of the book online; now every time you look at the textbook on your desk, your wallet whimpers.
11. When newspapers from the state you are the governor of want you to resign:
Chris Christie, I am looking at you.
