Perhaps the best thing about Philadelphia, FX's show 'Its Always Sunny In Philadelphia' is one of funniest shows on television. With its crude humor, and relatable content, it is easily one of my favorite shows to watch (you can binge watch 10 seasons on Netflix in one week)
If you're unfamiliar with 'Its Always Sunny', the show follows "The Gang" of Dennis, Dee, Mac, Charlie and Frank, who run a bar in Philly called "Paddy's Pub". The Gang's misadventures are strikingly similar to college kids so much that it's scary:
1. Waking up to see your only class for the day got canceled:
2. Getting back to your room and immediately realizing you failed that test:
3. Or when you KNOW that what you're about to do, is something you shouldn't:
4. Whether it's healthy or not, or even edible, we'll try it:
We'll eat anything to save us a few dollars, or to save us the cross-campus trip to the dining hall. If it's better than whatever is on the dinner menu, we best believe we're giving that concoction a shot. Also, if it's easy to bring on the go, we take full advantage of that.
5. The struggles of being a broke college student:
It's a well-known fact that money, in any quantity, is not enough to support our college lifestyle. We say we try to stretch it (which we sorta do), but we always end up asking mom and dad for an extra couple of dollars so we can withdraw from the ATM. With that being said, if you're reading this Dad, help me out!
6. Figuring out how to answer, "How do I look?"
We all do it. Both guys and girls. Normally before going out with friends, or on a date, we always ask the roommate "How do I look?", which is normally followed by a Snapchat or a group photo that will be retaken several times. For guys, it's normally followed by a sarcastic comment or two, only for you to follow up with the girls upstairs whether or not what you're wearing is acceptable.
7. Faking it till you make it on the job:
All of us want to intern somewhere awesome. Whether it's fetching coffee or taking out the trash, most of us just want to see what work after school looks like. The only issue is we have no idea what we're doing.
8. Knowing Everything
Face it, at some point we've acted like we know everything of our respective major. From history to science, we try to add our input on the subject on something we kind of heard while texting in class, and most of the time it's ridiculously wrong.
