12 Moments We All Felt Like Jerry Gergich From 'Parks and Rec'
Bustle

Have you ever had moments where you just keep messing something up? Well, that's basically the life of Jerry Gergich from "Parks and Recreation.” Jerry (also known as Terry, Garrry, and Larry) is known for messing up, whether it's something little or something huge. Everyone on "Parks and Rec,” from Leslie Knope to Tom Haverford, have ridiculed him due to his screw ups in the parks department. However, Jerry is also the type of person who appreciates the little things in life, even when he gets humiliated by the Pawnee parks department. The truth is that there are moments where we are all basically Jerry(Terry/Garry/Larry) Gergich.

1. When you're doing a presentation and mess up your talking points.

It's happened to the best of us.

2. When everyone keeps forgetting your name but you just decide to ignore it rather than correcting them.

3. When you get peer pressured into something and immediately regret it.

4. When you try to act cool but it fails epically.

5. When you realize too late that you're not a morning person.

6. When you get out of work early after a rough day.


7. But then you realize that you absolutely hate your job.

We definitely feel that, Jerry.

8. When you say a word wrong and everyone makes fun at you for it.

9. When you accidentally break something very valuable.

R.I.P. DJ Roomba, you'll be dearly missed.

10. When you've had way too much too drink Friday night.

At least Snake Juice guarantees a good time (but a really bad hangover)?

11. When you have no idea how to use technology.

" God, Jerry! You don't deserve the internet!"- Tom Haverford

12. When you realized that you screwed up so bad that you become the poster child of failure (literally).

Remember when Jerry forgot to vote for Leslie? Yeah, that's unacceptable, Jerry.

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.
