To The Creepy Almost-30s At The Bar Every Weekend, As Told By 'New Girl'
20th Century Fox

College is a time for partying. It's ugly and crazy but it's expected in college. For some reason, there are these groups of bar rats and weekend warriors who are over 25 and don't realize how ridiculous they are. All they do, weekend after weekend, is get obnoxiously drunk at the bar. It's not cute at any age, but after 25, if all you can find to do with yourself is get smashed at the bar every weekend, you might want to reevaluate your life.

Here's a look at the exciting life of weekend warriors as told by "The New Girl."

1. When they pass out in random places.

When you're 21 and in college, it's somewhat normal to be passing out in random places throughout the city and puking on yourself. When you're 25 and over, it's just pathetic. Passing out face down on your friends' floor, in the back of an uber or worse.

2. Friends' houses become their personal frat houses.

They wake up face-down. They fall into walls and doors. They break things. They throw up all over the place.

3. They get fat.

They binge drink, stuff their faces with fast food at 2 a.m. and then sleep all day long the next day.

4. They become slackers.

They're partying affects their responsibilities, even their job. They lose drive in their position. They show up late. They aren't sharp and clear for meetings. They forget about family events or they're too hungover.

6. They run through one-night-stands and meaningless hookups.

They open their eyes cautiously, never knowing who's going to be next to them.

7. They can't socially drink like an adult and have a good time.

They need to do shot after shot until they're blackout drunk.

8. They can never find a "good guy" or "good girl" to date

...because they're constantly dating other bar rats or meeting people at the bar. Yeah... that'll getcha a winner.

9. People are making fun of them

...because of their level of out-of-control but they think it's great so they keep going.

10. They are trying to shove drinks down others' throats just as much as their own.

Calling people out for not taking shots. They're just so cool.

11. They don't know how to have fun without drinking.

12. They have no idea what they did the night before.

13. They're boring.

All of their activities, hobbies and interests include partying, getting drunk and bar hopping.

For some reason, they don't realize why they are binge drinking. They are trying to fill some void in their life. The wake up to hear stories of how embarrassingly out of control they were, what they did, who they slept with and where they puked. And then they do it again the next weekend. Their parents must be so proud.

A three-and-a-half-hour runtime. Nine Eras. Eleven outfit changes. Three surprise songs. Zero breaks. One unforgettable evening. In the past century, no other performer has put on an electric performance quite like Taylor Swift, surpassing her fans ‘wildest dreams’. It is the reason supporters keep coming back to her shows each year. Days later, I’m still in awe of the spectacle ‘Miss Americana’ puts on every few days in a new city. And, like one of Taylor’s exes, has me smiling as I reminisce about the memories of the night we spent together.

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.
