8 English Jokes To Make You Smile

As an English major, I find grammar and English joke humorous. The accuracy is incredible, and it makes me sure that I chose the right major. Here are some of my favorite grammar and English jokes.

1. The first rule of English is their are know rules.

Reading that sentence physically hurt me because you can read that sentence with no problem, but you know that the grammar is incorrect.

2. Fahrenheit 451 is a book you can really burn through.

Now, if you haven't read this book, you wouldn't know what the joke behind this was. Basically, it's a book about burning books. Get it? Okay, maybe it wasn't that funny, but I still appreciated it.

3. What do you get when you mix literature and alcohol? Tequila Mockingbird!

Honestly, this is probably my favorite English joke because To Kill a Mockingbird is my favorite book. It's just funny, okay?

4. The past, present, and future walked into a bar. It was tense.

Get it? Because past, present, and future are tenses? This is gold, people. It's funny.

5. When I was a kid, my English teacher looked my way and said, "Name two pronouns." I said, "Who, me?"

I have so much love for this.

6. Anything that has, "Commas save lives!" at the end are also some of my favorites.

"Let's eat Grandma!" vs "Let's eat, Grandma!"

7. What's the difference between a cat and a comma? One has claws at the end of its paws, and the other is a pause at the end of a clause.

GOLDEN.

8. Spelling is knowing your crap and knowing you're crap.

This is just a great insult within a grammar joke, which I am all about.

These are just some of my favorites becuase I think they're all amazing. I have many more, but I thought that 8 would be enough. This is for all the grammar geeks out there, like myself. I hope you enjoyed it.

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.
