Odyssey Rejects — a new Twitter account that has become very popular, very quickly. Basically, it is a parody account that tweets ideas for Odyssey articles, but they're all jokes. While reading through their tweets, I found some ideas that were actually golden and really, really funny. One of my personal favorites was "The Seven Guys You Date In College, as told by 'Ice Age' Characters." I modified it a bit and did six guys instead of seven. So, without further ado, here are the six guys you date in college... described by some "Ice Age" characters.
1. Scrat
There is a squirrel named Scrat that only cares about burying his acorn. Scrat is all over the place, frantic and anxious over the fate of his beloved acorn. Now I don't know about you, but to me, that sounds like your stereotypical frat god. The frat god is obsessed with one thing and one thing only: his frat. He loves it so much that it consumes his life. So, like the acorn is to Scrat, the frat is to the chubbie-wearin', Natty lite-drinkin', dart-throwin' college fraternity brother. My best advice: don't let the acorn be more important than you but understand that the acorn is one of the most important things in his life.
2. Sid
He is the lovable idiot that adds comedic relief to every situation. However, he can be overbearing and obnoxious with his tactics. Sid is like the friend that asks you for coffee at least every other week. He doesn't understand "no," and takes it as "she's not interested....yet." You don't want to date a Sid because he is such a good friend and it's not worth throwing away your friendship for a relationship that will more than likely not work out. But if you do date a Sid, be prepared for an ever-present sidekick.
3. Manny
Manny is the big, strong male character that appears rugged but actually has a soft side. His family comes first to him but he doesn't want you to think that he isn't the tough guy he is deep down. Manny is the classic jock that you might happen to date. If you're into the strong, sensitive type, he'll be Mr. Right for you. He is the perfect balance of grit and fluff. If you date a Manny, you will always have someone to protect you but also be the listener that you need from time to time.
4. Diego
Diego is the elusive tough guy that always seems to be hanging out with your friends. You don't really know much about him but when he does talk, he usually surprises you with his bad boy way of taking on life. Also, he is the guy that you can't help but fall for because of how mysterious he is. Dating a Diego would be hard at first because you have to break down his walls before you get to know the real him. But as soon as you do, all the work will be worth it.
5 & 6. Crash and Eddie
Crash and Eddie are the inseparable duo that literally live for getting into trouble. They are daredevils that know no limits. Anything is worth doing, especially for the story they'll get to tell after doing it. If you date a Crash or an Eddie, you might as well be dating the other one, too. Because of their need to be together 24/7, it's like a two-for-one deal. So if you're into guys with a wild side, be prepared to deal with the BFF that comes along with him. Oh, also make sure you always have a camera handy, in case the two of them go viral.
