You definitely do not know these brothers. These guys are basically the forerunner of the Three Stooges, starting in vaudeville and transitioning to stage and then film. Starring in some of the best comedies of all time, this group are celebrated as an iconic representation of how comedy then is still funny now.

Groucho, probably one of the best quick-witted comics of all time. Chico, the lovable con man who was also a phenomenal piano player. Finally, Harpo, the silent workhorse who could charm you with his harp playing. These three men together made one of the best comic trios of all time...

...and can summarize certain events in your young adult life. So, all you 18-24 year olds, sit down, relax, and enjoy how these brothers sum up college, social life, and the eventual return home for the holidays.

1. When your boss is about to ask if you can work over the weekend:

2. When your card gets declined at the grocery store:

3. Getting ready to go out with your friends like:

4. When you're trying to defend your friend to the RA after they did another stupid thing:

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.

I was asked so many times why I wanted to go to a small school when a big university is so much better. Don't get me wrong, I'm sure a big university is great but I absolutely love going to a small school. I know that I miss out on big sporting events and having people actually know where it is. I can't even count how many times I've been asked where it is and I know they won't know so I just say "somewhere in the middle of Wisconsin." But, I get to know most people at my school and I know my professors very well. Not to mention, being able to walk to the other side of campus in 5 minutes at a casual walking pace. I am so happy I made the decision to go to school where I did. I love my school and these are just a few reasons why.
