The 10 Best How I Met Your Mother Episodes
Kaitlin Thomas

If you read my last article, you know that I have seen the entirety of How I Met Your Mother four times. During the third go-round, I decided to make a list of my favorite episodes, and today I thought, "Why not make that into an article?" So I did.

10. S7e3: Ducky Tie

This episode offers a glimpse into the terrifyingly convoluted mind of Barney Stinson, everyone's favorite character. Also included is the state of Ted and Victoria's ~relationship~ at the time, which I don't really care about.

9. S8e20: The Time Travelers

Spoiler: the entire episode takes place in the mind of Ted Mosby, and that is a beautiful thing.

8. S5e12: Girls vs. Suits

Any time Neil Patrick Harris shows off his Broadway side, we shall all rejoice. It's a pretty solid episode, too.

7. S4e2: The Best Burger in New York

I don't know if it's just because I really, really love burgers, but this episode stands out to me. It's the anthem of any small town kid moving to the big city.

6. S9e11: Bedtime Stories

Which episode enchanted all viewers at the time? The one in which Marshall tells stories in rhyme! (That was so lame. I am sorry.)

5. S7e9: Disaster Averted

"There's no way of knowing for sure where the safest place is, so the best you can hope for is to have some good company." -Ted Evelyn Mosby

4. S7e15: The Burning Beekeeper

This unique episode allows the story to unfold room by room, each bit ending with a screaming human fireball disrupting the scene.

3. S6e4: Subway Wars

The most exciting TV episode about various methods of transportation ever.

2. S8e22: The Bro Mitzvah

If you've seen it, you understand.

1. S2e15: Lucky Penny

An illustration of how each decision we make affects the future. Also Barney runs a marathon, Ted goes to court, and Marshall give impassioned pep talks to the man in the mirror.

AI music threatens creativity

The Soul of Sound: How AI Challenges Human Expression in Music

In an age where artificial intelligence can mimic the voice of Freddie Mercury or reimagine pop hits as synthwave ballads, a new frontier has emerged — one that blurs the line between innovation and erosion. While AI offers undeniable benefits in technical domains, its intrusion into creative arts, especially music, raises urgent questions. Not just about copyright, but about culture, education, and the very soul of artistic expression.

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.

Why Your Astrological Sign May Not Match Your Personality

We are all more than just one sign.

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.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

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.
