Bow ties are the essence of cool, collected, and creative. There is no reason to keep up the stereotypes of bow ties being only for nerds or tuxedo's (although nerds are awesome and tuxedos are arguably as sharp as a man can dress). Let's look at a few of the reasons to bring back bow ties in both business settings and our every day lives. It is almost the "Roaring Twenties" again, y'all!

1. Check out men's style!

It's almost the roaring twenties again ya'll! Let's get Great Gatsby glamorous. Bow ties are moving more and more towards a huge variety of styles, materials and textures. Just check out this next one...

2. Make people happy

Men can be dogs, but even dogs look cute in bow ties!

3. Permeate confidence

Chicks dig dudes with dogs and bow ties.

4. Be tenacious and gracious

Knowing how to tie a bow tie well show other people in the room what kinda person you are: smart, patient, clean, and efficient!

5. Elevate simplicity

A bow tie can take a simple outfit and turn it GQ in a heart beat. Who doesn't want a little GQ in their day to day?

6. Add 10 points to your I.Q.

There is nothing more intellectually sexy than a well worn bow tie. They are the choice of industry leaders and world changers throughout history! Check out Thomas Edison, Albert Einstein, and even Bill Nye.

7. Embrace ambition

Bow ties have long been held as a sign of wealth and class. Embrace your desire to change the world!

8. Create a signature

Every good business person can agree on one thing: signatures sell. For Apple products, it's the packaging and operating system, for Toyota it's dependability, for McDonald's it's the Big Mac! Make yourself stand out, be unique, and most of all, memorable!

9. Rock the end of day look!

A loosened bow tie suggests a night of scotch on the rocks and swooning.

10. And tell me you don't want to look like Dicaprio!

Leo is the pinnacle of the modern man in a bow tie. Cheers to a revival of the gentleperson!

In case you're unaware, "resting bitch face" is the term used to describe when a person's natural, expressionless face makes it look like they are mad at the world. Whether they are walking down the street or simply spacing out thinking about what to eat for dinner, it's very easy for others to assume that this person is either upset or mad at them. Because of this, those of us with Resting Bitch Face (RBF), and especially us women, have all experienced many of the same situations and conversations, including:

We've all had a crush before. Whether it leads to something or nothing, the process has all been the same. The awkward feelings, the stalking, and the stress of trying to keep this huge secret. The feeling of becoming a total spazz is something that cannot be avoided, and the most spazzy family that can relate to this feeling is the Belcher's.

This process, which always starts out so optimistic, can get frustrating really quickly. Here are 25 thoughts you have when registering for classes.

10 Thoughts Of A 5th Year Senior

What about those of us who don't do it all in four years?

"College will be the best four years of your life" is a phrase that we have all heard growing up. College is painted as a magical place to us while we are in high school. A place you go to learn, meet your best friends and probably have the time of your life while all of this is going down. Four whirlwind years, where everything that you've known changes and you start to learn what it means to live on your own, have a job, etc. But what about those of us who don't do this all in four years? Major changes, hard courses, switching schools, career paths changing, these are just a handful of factors that could extend your four years to five, six or seven. There is nothing wrong with taking extra time to graduate, but returning as a fifth-year is a little different. Most of your best friends have most likely graduated and moved and while you may be one of the oldest undergraduates on campus, you might feel as awkward as a freshmen. A world that became home and comfortable to you is still there but it's slightly different than you've known it to be and you have to find a groove to fall into. These are thoughts you'll have as you look ahead to returning to your college campus, with a victory lap planned.
