14 Signs You're Obsessed With 'Law & Order: Special Victims Unit'
Dr. Odd

So, you're a fan of "Law & Order: SVU," but are you are a little too obsessed? If you any of the following statements are true for you, chances are your love for the "Special Victim's Unit" is a bit out-of-control.


1. You know the opening statement by heart.

In the criminal justice system, sexually based offenses are considered especially heinous. In New York City, the dedicated detectives who investigate these vicious felonies are members of an elite squad known as the Special Victims Unit. These are their stories. Dun dun.



2. You sing along to the theme song... even though it's instrumental.

Duh duh, do do do do -- doooo, doooooooo...



3. You can tell the season by Olivia's haircut.

And you're absolutely OK with that.


4. You can name all of Elliot Stabler's kids.

Maureen, Kathleen, Dickie, Elizabeth, and Eli. No shame.



5. You unhappily watch the newer seasons for Olivia and Finn.

And because you must watch every, single episode.



6. You've referred to Olivia Benson as 'Badass Benson' on more than one occasion.

It's an acceptable way to refer to Detective Benson.



7. You live for guest stars.

Like when Amanda Seyfried played a survivor trying to protect their assailant.

Or when Hilary Duff played a pseudo-Casey Anthony.

Or when Jesse McCartney was a member of the abstinence club.

Or when Mischa Barton played a pregnant hooker.



8. The friendship between Munch and Finn is unbearably adorable to you.

The ultimate bromance.


9. Olivia Benson and Elliot Stabler will forever be your OTP.

But you still want Elliot and his wife to stay together.



10. You understand how great the lines are out of context, and they are always hilarious.

The script is ridiculous, but that's all a part of the appeal.


11. So are all the one-liners.

Oh Finn, no one understands white people.


12. You're a fan of SVU memes.

More like Detective BABEler, amiright?


13. These episodes truly break your heart.

Season 15 Episode 5; Munch's retirement.

Season 12 Episode 24; Elliot's last episode.

Season 15 Episode 11; Cragen's retirement.


14. And no matter how many times you've seen each episode, you always tune in to USA's Special Victims marathons.

**Cancels everything to watch your faves in action.**

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.
