Bad Advice From Good Luck Charlie

We all know and love the hit Disney Channel Original Series "Good Luck Charlie" where we see a family and their baby grow before our very eyes through the video diaries of the older sister and main character Teddy. I happened to stumble upon a one hour video of every single video diary throughout the tv show and noticed that a majority of the advice is either useless or just plain dumb. So here you go, a list of not so great advice that was given to Charlie.

"Oh, and I want to recommend that you make the tree house no boys allowed especially if that boy weighs as much as daddy because if you do let him up there well...good luck Charlie."

This advice is not only a sexist comment on Teddy's behalf, but she is also roasting her father by making fun of his weight. This little tidbit of info really has no use either except to create a good punchline.

“That’s our mom. From cool to embarrassing just like that. Good luck Charlie”

I personally thought that these video diaries were supposed to be a way to sign off the day on a positive note and explain the moral of the story or the lesson of the day. Instead, we are left with a generally known fact that moms are embarrassing at one point in our lives.

“What a day. You almost got us arrested, we had an awesome time at spencer’s party, and we totally trashed a store, but amazingly mom and dad never found out so I think we got away with it.” *mother comes in and confronts her about problem “If I go down, I am taking you with me. Good luck Charlie”

Wow. The ideas of the destruction of property, getting arrested, and taking a 9-month old baby to a High School party are being laughed at by the audience in the background. We also see in this diary that she is teaching Charlie to keep secrets from their parents. A fantastic lesson Teddy. Finally, she threatens her sister that if she gets in trouble then Charlie should also get in trouble?? Charlie is a baby and had no idea what was going on.

“If your brother Gabe goes to give you a hug well...good luck Charlie. “

Now she is encouraging her sister to not show love and affection to her siblings.

Real mature Teddy.

“If you walk home from the park dressed like a giant chicken you will be chased by a dog...good luck Charlie.”

I just did the math and there is a 1 out of 0 chance that Charlie will ever be dressed as a giant chicken. This useless information is honestly a waste of brain cells and SD card space on her camera.

Before I quote this last one I actually want to explain that I thought this one sounded promising by the way it started, but then quickly led to a disaster.

“Well Charlie, big life lesson today. See when someone says they have a house on the lake they might mean that they have a house on the lake. Good luck Charlie.”

Teddy is simply emphasizing the point that a lake house is really a lake house, but she really throws Charlie and the audience for a loop with her preface. Learn to give some real lessons Teddy.

I believe the best way to wrap this article up is for me to give some advice to Charlie myself.

Hi, Charlie, it’s Hunter here, I just have a little advice to give you. If you ever take any of these lessons seriously that your sister has taught you well...good luck Charlie.

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.
