A Drink With The Presidential Candidates
Reddit

A trait some Americans look for in a presidential candidate is someone they could have a beer with; a person they can relate to.

Although highly unlikely, I would like to see how the 2016 presidential candidates acted if they were to go out and grab a drink together, and this is sort of how I think the night would go.

The night would start at a Chili's, because Gary Johnson loves their happy hour and their bone-in wings.

Hillary Ubers to Chili's, because she says she's being responsible, and Johnson drove there himself; Trump gets dropped off by his driver, arriving 45 minutes late. Jill Stein said she wanted to go, but no one ever texted her the details.

Once at the restaurant, everyone orders drinks; Johnson orders a beer, Clinton gets a vodka soda, and Trump orders a brandy neat that's served to him in a wine glass, because it's a Chili's, not a swanky bar in Manhattan.

Johnson has four beers, and flies through them. Clinton barely touches her drink, but that doesn't stop her from ordering another. Trump, now with a beer in front of him, is too busy ordering drinks for women around the restaurant to touch his. Some of the drinks get sent back, because the girls weren't of age, and were with their families.

Feeling pretty buzzed, Johnson suggests they go to a dive bar down the street. Trump orders everyone shots, because he said they had to celebrate that good idea. Clinton barely chokes down the shot and then is instantly drunk, because she drinks so little.

Once at the bar, Clinton lets loose. She throws Janice Joplin on the jukebox, which surprises the patrons of the bar that it was even an option. She yells, "Next round is on me," which is met with no response; someone throws up in the back of the bar.

Johnson, who is just focused on drinking, keeps ordering beers, and French fries, which he claims are actually quite good.

Clinton gets one more drink in her, but then starts crying, because a few people were chanting Benghazi in the back. Trump is nowhere to be found.

With the night wrapping up, Johnson asks for the check, which they forget to split prior to ordering.

Johnson pays for his portion, and leaves a hefty tip. With her Uber about to arrive, Clinton frantically throws down $10, her portion was closer to $20.

Believing Trump left, Johnson covers Trump's portion, and then gets into his car and leaves.

Trump, emerging from the shadows, jogs over to the table, takes the money for the bill, and writes a mean note to the waiter and signs it Gary Johnson.

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.

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

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.
