Midterms are coming up, and that means its time for some serious procrastination. But when you've already binge-watched the entirety of The Office and scrolled through five days worth of Buzzfeed articles, what else can you do to put off your homework just a little bit longer?
Let me introduce you to The Toast 's article series, "If X Were Your Y".
The best part of an already hilarious website (seriously, check out the rest of the articles on The Toast, especially their series "How To Tell If You're In A Novel"), "If X Were Your Y" is an article series that explores your wildest fantasies by explaining what your life would be like if your significant other was also your favorite actor or actress.
Fan favorites such as Chris Evans, Oscar Isaac, Gwenyth Paltrow, and Kristen Stewart are all inserted into this hilarious and frankly pretty sweet narrative, accompanied by some more colorful imaginings such as "If Stephen Colbert Were Your Dad" and "If The Boy From The Giving Tree Were Your Boyfriend."
Each and every one of these articles is laugh-out-loud hilarious, with insider references and timely pop-culture commentary abound.
Sure, reading the "If X Were Your Y" articles might not be the best use of your time during midterms, but in my opinion making sure you have a laugh or two amongst all of your coffee-fueled stress sessions is an important act of self-care and should be encouraged at all times. Therefore, take this article as a sign and go look up "If X Were Your Y": you'll be happy you did.
