13 Times Infomercials Blew Our Minds

Now, I don't know about you, but I find infomercials to be very entertaining. If you have at least a semi-sarcastic sense of humor like me, you can find the life lessons hidden within these informercials.

Here are some things that I learned that simply blew my mind:

1) A messy house is a dangerous house.

Hey, you never know when you'll trip over a toy truck and smash right into a glass table. Things happen.

2) Camping with family is the best kind of camping.

Can I get a "what, what?"

3) Wearing the color white during a meal is oftentimes not a good idea:

Even adults know the struggle.

4) Things that come out of boiling water are usually hot:

Sometimes, you just have to learn things the hard way.

5) Carrying approximately 1,000 things at once is not a good idea:

Taking multiple trips from point A to point B sounds like too much work. I know, I know.

6) Beauty isn't pain... it's weirdness:

I have no words.

7) There is no such thing as invading someone's personal space in the name of cleanliness:

Just take out that pocket-sized vacuum and do your thing, you clean freak, you.

8) Cats are obviously the worst:

But we already knew that.

9) Pocket-less pants DO exist:

Darn it. If only there was a thing you could put your phone in that loops over your shoulder in a fashionable manner. Hmm...

10) Storing tupperware isn't as hassle-free as one may think:

11) You can put on deodorant with a blindfold on:

Oh, joy!

12) Curly hair is just comical.

Hair, you silly goose!

13) Cutting a loaf of bread with a door stop will not yield positive results:

Wait . . . I was sure that this is what they're made for.


People say that you learn something new every day, but I say, learn 13 new things TODAY and save yourself some time.

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.
