Ron Swanson: Meat lover. Whiskey drinker. Libertarian. Enjoys silence. Keeps his money buried underground in the form of gold. Doesn't often care about others. Surprisingly relatable.

1. When you see someone that you don't particularly like out in public and they are trying to get your attention:


Maybe if they don't see my face, they will decide it's not me.

2. When you tell your friends about something that you think is really cool and they start roasting you mercilessly:

I was kidding about liking it anyways. Geez.

3. When you go to the animal shelter to play with puppies and you have to force yourself not to adopt one on the spot:

Even though they're so cute and small and fluffy and soft and sweet and cuddly aaannnnndd now you're crying.

4. When you're going 90 in the far left lane and you realize your exit is coming up so you move over three lanes and accidentally cut off a bunch of people and everyone is honking at you but you made it to your exit:

I didn't die, so.

5. When you go to a friend's house and their cat likes you:

This is the ultimate honor.

6. When the teacher is about to end class and that one kid says, "Wait what about the homework?":

And you did not do the homework.

7. When you're playing a harmless game of Scattergories with your grandparents and Grandma Bertha is kicking your ass and you're trying to stay calm:

I'd say she was probably cheating, but I don't think she knows how to use a phone to look up possible answers.

8. When he won't stop texting you "wyd boo" even though you stopped replying days ago:

Take a hint, friend.

9. When you were nominated for an award and someone else won and you're secretly really bitter but you're trying not to show it:

Who even cares??? Amirite? Me. I care. A little. Not really, though. It's fine. We are all fine.

10. When someone you barely know/don't really like tries to hug you:

Homie, I'm not comfortable enough with you to have your armpits on top of my shoulders and be trapped in your arm prison.

11. When Trump essentially became the Republican nominee:

This must be some kind of sick joke...right?

12. When someone tells you a scandalous secret and then you tell your best friend and then they tell a couple people and then suddenly everyone knows and it's kind of your fault:

#TrustNoBitch.

13. When you and your friends are going somewhere in your car and when you turn the car on your country music CD starts blaring and all of your friends hate country music and you always pretend you hate it too and they all stare at you:

#Views only.

14. When you're in a hurry and you're trying to walk in a crowded area and everyone is moving so slowly and you can't get around them:

Double-time, people.

15. When someone you don't really know attempts to discuss their personal problems with you:

Uh.

16. When your "friends" keep going through your old Facebook pictures from middle school and liking them so that they show up on everyone's Timelines:

I WAS 12, OK.

17. When you're out to eat with friends and you finish first and they're not even halfway done so you're just sitting there:

Guys, just put the food on the fork and into your mouth. It's not that hard. You're embarrassing me.

Today I started my third week of college at Minnesota State Moorhead. I have survived welcome week, finding my classes on the first day, and being an awkward loner in the dining hall. Even though I have yet to be here for a month, I have already experienced many thoughts and problems that only a new college student can relate to.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential.

And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.

You have three assignments due and little time to work on them because of your job. You’re running late because you’ve hit snooze one to many times after yesterday’s long hours. You dizzily reach for a hoodie, craving its comfort, and rush for a speedy exit, praying you will have time to pick up coffee. Does this sound familiar?
