Bacon is highly overrated. I don't like the taste of it, and my stomach doesn't like it either. I cut most pork and beef out of my life years ago, so now the only bacon I eat is turkey bacon (and the occasional sweet black pepper bacon sandwich from Dunkin Donuts because YUM!) Other than that, bacon is barely a part of my life while you consider it the holy grail of breakfast foods.

The only thing that is remotely iconic about bacon is Ron Swanson. I just hope that one day, my significant other loves me just as much as Ron Swanson loves bacon.


What do you have to be prepared about? You just have to quite literally prepare it by cooking it.

Can you say you have your favorite food hidden around your workspace?

Yes?

No?

Even if you do, you aren't up to Ron Swanson standards.

If you are obsessed with bacon, you may not want to keep reading, because I'm here to tell you how much it sucks.

It's greasy, smelly, weirdly seasoned, cooked poorly, and the oil when you cook it always pops up and burns you. Also, it's added to LITERALLY everything. Do we really need that many bacon-flavored foods? After all, we already have bacon itself...

Whether it's bacon flavored gum, bacon lollipops, bacon ice cream, bacon croutons, bacon mayonnaise, bacon alcohol, bacon potato chips, bacon Ritz crackers, and literally every brand of cat and dog food has a bacon flavor.

Please, just take bubblegum flavored gum, vanilla ice cream, BBQ chips, and keep your bacon obsession away from me.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
