Now, I am not really that into sports, but let me tell you -- hockey is a different story. And unless you live under a rock or are too busy counting down the days until football season, you should know that it's the NHL playoffs, the most important time of the year. So, in honor of the playoff season kicking off this week, I compiled my four favorite hockey fights in NHL history.

1. "The Brawl."

My favorite fight of all time. This Flyer and Senator fight was dubbed "The Brawl" due to the sheer magnitude of it. It received the most penalties per minute in a game. But who battled out the hardest? Senators. Duh.

2. Penguins vs. Islanders.

There are quite a few fights that happened this night, but my favorite two are at 4:20, when there is a giant iceman pile up on the rink, and at 5:00, when Johnson spun out into the goal. So who won this one? Islanders. Need I even say it?

3. Sharp vs. Horcoff.

OK, so it's not an all-out brawl, but the announcer gets me every time: "They talked it out." You mean with their fists? This brawl is the toughest I have seen in the last few years, and it's a real shame Sharp got traded because this is a definite Blackhawks win.

4. Sharks vs. Blues.

How can you not love all the bear hugging in this all-out brawl? The whole game was full of them, but this fight takes the cake. Shout out to Sobotka for showing mercy. This was clearly a Blues win.

Whether you agree with my top choices or not, it's hard for any hockey fan to deny that the epic fights are one of the best parts about the game.

I've lived a whole 21 years with an RBF (Resting Bitch Face), so naturally, I go through most of these struggles on a daily basis.

And before you ask, yes I'm fine. No, I'm not mad. This is just my face, so take it or leave it! To those of you who have been #blessed with an RBF, you'll probably relate to these more than you'd like to:

What's up Asshat,

I've composed a list of things that I wish upon you, and they're harsh and cruel. These things are things that I wouldn't wish upon my worst of enemies, not even that Starbuck's barista who always screws up my order, not even him. You fall into a whole other category of hate. You surpass Starbucks barista. Congratulations, I'm actually a pretty nice person, making you worthy of every single bit of torture I wish upon you. What are these things I wish upon you you might ask?

Supportive and spontaneous human beings are the best.

Theater Kids

Throughout school, the theater department has always been my go-to place with go-to people when I need advice, a dance party, or just someone to listen to me vent.

You never know what's going to happen when you're dealing with theatre or what kind of characters you'll encounter. We have too much fun doing anything! One time in my senior year acting class, we spent an entire class period watching Bob's Burgers, and it was the greatest class period ever.
