The first time I spotted Tina from "Bob's Burgers" with her beautiful, amazing, sparkling personality, I realized that I was essentially seeing myself.
No, seriously. The short hair, tannish skin, thick-framed glasses, and the voice that constantly sounds like it's trying to get comfortable but just can't..it was me. I even looked in a mirror to check and there I saw it: Tina Belcher.
You're lying to me if you tell me that you haven't had at least one uncomfortable moment of relating to Tina.
1) She's got game. You've got game.
She's a man-eater and she knows it.
2) You're a resourceful millennial and Tina captures this role perfectly.
Stick to your DIY face masks and bath bombs, and she will take care of the DIY hair care.
3) You know that your life is a struggle.
But did you know that Tina's is too?
No, probably not. I bet you didn't even stop for a second to think of her.
4) You deserve to be appreciated more.
Like Tina, you are a gem and should be recognized as such.
5) THE GIRL HAS GOT SERIOUS GAME!
I take it back. Here is one area where you are not like Tina. If you thought you were smooth, you better reevaluate.
You can't just slide into someone's DMs now. The bar has been set much, much higher.
6) You've got standards.
Tina also prioritizes because she knows what she wants.
7) You see what you like, and you like what you see.
8) You are adorably klutzy
It's just cuter when Tina messes up.
9) Coffee is magic, isn't it?
It certainly does something to Tina.
10) You have tough decisions to make
Do you think it was easy for Tina to be torn between two amazing guys?
11) Let's face it, she's a player.
Though you can't deny that you've got wandering eyes too.
12) Remember learning how to drive?
I'm sure Tina does.
Like you didn't hit the only other car in the parking lot either.
So there you have it.
You are Tina, and Tina is you. It's kind of an exciting discovery to realize that you share so much in common with one of the most charming characters on television.
Say what you want about Tina, but she is the awkward side of adolescence that everyone has, but only few will admit to.
Her shy, masculine voice and bold personality make her one of the best cartoon characters.
