Internet humor and entertainment

With the extension of the Internet in the late 20th century, our lives became simpler. Most of us are looking for information and entertainment on the Internet. How was it before?

Where to find information

Before you appeared on the Internet, we looked for information in the media (as we now say) in the press, television and radio. Personal recommendations and guidance also played an important role. To find information about a cabaret performance, about the arrival of the circus, about a new movie worth watching, you had to look for information. Now all you need is a little willingness, a little time and taking advantage of the benefits. 10 minutes - I already know what cabaret and where it will perform soon, what movie to go to the cinema for. Regardless of how I want to watch something on Netflix or another feature or just on YouTube.

Prehistoric memes

Currently, many of us cannot imagine life without internet memes. A picture taken from somewhere, add a comment in the program with a list and the meme, which can be laughed at by the whole world on the same day, is ready. How was it before?

It took a lot of time for a photojournalist to capture something truly extraordinary and then have his photo published in the press. Several days or weeks. It was easier for satirical cartoonists, because their fantasies are not limited by anything. To draw a funny scene in the reality of the scenery that the whole world will laugh at - professional press cartoonists had no problem with this. But you still had to edit these errors. The e-mail was not, so carry the effectiveness or enter into the shipment and send by mail.

Satirical drawings

Since then, the columns in the popular newspaper began to attract many readers. The authors did not have a chance to meet real readers for their drawing. Now the humorous drawing is different on the Internet, many people comment immediately after seeing it. As many professional satirical cartoonists from the press will move online, we will know them immediately after the drawings are made. But nowadays, cartoonists have access to anonymous characters, making memes. This makes it stand out even more.

For as long as I can remember, I have been listening to The Beatles. Every year, my mom would appropriately blast “Birthday” on anyone’s birthday. I knew all of the words to “Back In The U.S.S.R” by the time I was 5 (Even though I had no idea what or where the U.S.S.R was). I grew up with John, Paul, George, and Ringo instead Justin, JC, Joey, Chris and Lance (I had to google N*SYNC to remember their names). The highlight of my short life was Paul McCartney in concert twice. I’m not someone to “fangirl” but those days I fangirled hard. The music of The Beatles has gotten me through everything. Their songs have brought me more joy, peace, and comfort. I can listen to them in any situation and find what I need. Here are the best lyrics from The Beatles for every and any occasion.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.
