We all know "The Office" is absolute gold. However, if you want to avoid sitting down to watch something, scrolling forever and then watching another episode of "The Office," this list is for you.

These comedies have excellent casts, are witty, and will have you laughing out loud and wondering why you didn't watch them sooner.

Skip hitting play on "The Office" and check out one of these great comedies instead:

1. "The Good Place"

This after-life comedy that centers around the principals of ethics may seem a bit too out there for you at first, but the running jokes and hilarious one-liners by robot Janet will keep you coming back for more.

2. "Brooklyn Nine-Nine"

Once you get to know this cast of characters, you'll love them. Each member of the "Brooklyn Nine-Nine" squad brings comedic genius to the table. Andy Samberg stars as a lead detective who doesn't quite have his stuff together, but every member of the cast brings something to the table.

3. "30 Rock"

What more needs to be said besides Tina Fey? Liz Lemon and Jack Donaghy are larger than life characters who may produce more great one-liners than Michael Scott (don't @ me) and are some of the most quotable and entertaining characters on TV.

4. "Arrested Development"

The ongoing storylines and jokes in "Arrested Development" can't be beaten. If you're looking for a show that will keep you laughing and that you can rewatch a million times without getting sick of it, "Arrested Development" is it.

5. "Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt"

Who knew a show about 4 girls being kidnapped and held against their will in a bunker in a cult could be funny? Ellie Kemper nails her performance as Kimmy Schmidt, but her new partner in crime Titus Andromedon will have you in stitches.

6. "Seinfeld"

It's an absolute classic. And if you haven't watched it yet, you should. There's really nothing else that needs to be said about "Seinfeld."

7. "Broad City"

Two twenty-something stoner girls living their best (and worst) lives in NYC. Insanely hilarious and relatable, even for guys. Abbi and Ilana draw you in but supporting characters Bevers, Lincoln and Garol will keep making it worth your while to watch.

8. "Parks and Recreation"

Many fans of "The Office" have already dived into this sitcom. But if you haven't yet, the great Leslie Knope played by Amy Poehler and the unbeatable Ron Swanson played by Nick Offerman will have you hooked.

What are you waiting for? Get to watching!

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.
