As a human living in 2016, your time is precious--which is why when it comes to watching television for five hours and four minutes every day on average, you need to make sure you're investing in the right shows. Nothing is worse than binging an entire series only to realize that you could have been using that time to watch an even better one. So, here are seven Netflix shows that are definitely not worth watching.

1. Friends

Six people who are all friends with each other (and not just on Facebook)? Talk about an unrealistic premise. If it's fantasy you're interested in, then try something a little less "out there," like Game of Thrones.

2. Orange Is The New Black

Let this show be a lesson that spinoffs never work, as this Steven Avery origin story never quite took off. Plus, how are you supposed to pronounce its nickname, OINTB? Do you say all of the letters individually, or is it "oint-buh"? You're looking for a crime drama, not a thinker.

3. Parks and Recreation

First of all, everyone knows Amy Poehler doesn't live in Indiana because no one important lives in Indiana. Second, a branch of government dedicated to local parks? This sci-fi/reality mashup just has a little too much going on.

4. Luke Cage

This show's titular character is described as "a hoodie-wearing, unbreakable ex-con." Please, everyone knows con men wear long trench coats filled with watches.

5. Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt

Um, isn't Luke Cage supposed to be the unbreakable one? Recycled plot lines are the worst.

6. Crazy Ex-Girlfriend

Wouldn't it be less redundant to just say "ex-girlfriend"? Besides, the boys on this show are just as crazy. Watch one episode, and you'll see them singing and dancing. Boys don't sing and dance; they play sports.

7. Fuller House.

But actually.

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.
