As a fan of John Mulaney, I have always felt like his comedy is not only extremely hilarious but at the same time completely relatable. Here are some of John's Mulaney's lines that the average person could relate to.

"I'm one of the worst drivers I have ever seen."

No matter how hard we try, we have always had bad moments as a driver. Whether it is on a daily basis or every once in a while, we have been in a situation where our driving techniques have not been the best to the point where we feel like we are the worst drivers ever.

"That guy's a bozo!"

We've all come in contact with people who are complete idiots. Whether it's someone annoying in one of your classes, someone who hangs around you quite a bit, or someone who you just run into throughout the day we've all had that moment where we've wanted to scream "That guy's a bozo!"

"Your story doesn't have a lot of details."

Whether it's a story that someone has told that you are just not following or a story that you believe may contain a lie, we've all had the moment where we need someone to add more details to their story and we have a lot like John when he says "your story doesn't have a lot of details".

"Now we don't have time to unpack all of that."

This can be taken in two ways. The first way is the literal translation of the fact that we've all had a hard time unpacking from a vacation or a move when you're extremely busy. The other way this can be interpreted is when we have a lot of emotional baggage and someone asks you a question where the answer relates to that emotional baggage you gotta tell them there's no time to fully answer that question.

"Just too anxious for a lot of things."

We've all had those times where we have felt that we are too anxious to do things especially when it comes to stepping out of our comfort zone.

"All I do is sit and dwell in the past."

All of us have had those embarrassing moments that we can not forget about it. We also have those memories that we don't ever want to forget so we turn them over and over in our minds. Often we might feel like John when he says that all he does is dwell about the past.

"We were little goblins. We were terrible."

All of us can remember our childhood memories with our siblings and friends and all of the crazy things and we realize that we were, in fact, little monsters as children.

"Hey, you could pour soup in my lap and I'd probably apologize to you."

Whether we're people who are naturally intimidated by others or if we're just people who are intimidated every once in a while, we've all had this sort of moment where we're so intimidated by someone where we would do anything to avoid confrontation with them.

6 Unrealistic Expectations Society Has For Young Adults

Don't let the thesaurus-inspired vocabularies in our résumés fool you. We're actually just big kids.

Well over four feet tall and 100 pounds in weight, many of us "young adults" of the world still consider ourselves children. Big, working, college-attending, beer-drinking children. We may live on our own, know how to cook noodles, and occasionally use a planner, but don't be fooled; the youthful tendencies that reside within us still make their way into our daily lives. From choosing to stay up until 3:00 a.m. playing video games on a school night to going out in 30 degree weather without a coat, we still make decisions that our parents and grandparents would shake their heads at in disappointment. So why are we expected to know exactly how to be a wise, professional, sensible adult? It's not that we're irresponsible (for the most part, anyway). It's that we are young, inexperienced, and still have the sought-after, enthusiastic mentality that we can do and be whatever we want, which has not yet been tarnished by the reality of the world. These are just a few of the unrealistic expectations that society has for young adults.

pizza
Fandango

There are a lot of foods in this world, but there is only one dish that stands above the rest: Pizza. If you're close to me or at least know who I am, then you know that I'm totally obsessed with pizza. It's one of my favorite things to eat and I will NEVER turn down a slice, even if it doesn't have my favorite toppings. There isn't a day that goes by where I'm not thinking about pizza. I even sleep with a pizza pillow every night! There are many reasons why pizza stands above all other foods, and here are just a couple reasons why.

1. You don't have to feel guilty about flirting with customers for tips (or just for shits and giggles).

2. You can be obnoxiously flirtatious with anyone you want. You are free to be that girl that flirts with everybody and makes 'em all smile (it's especially fun when the guy is as cute as Collin Jost). No shame.

3. Making random men nervous with your superior beauty and intense eye contact just for the hell of it is really amusing and empowering.

4. No one gives two poops if ya legs are hairy (your man shouldn't either but *Kermit the Frog meme* That's none of my business)

5. The toilet seat will remain down.

6. There's more money to spend on yourself.

7. There's always this secret butterfly in your tummy that marvels at the possibility that when you go out this weekend you're gonna meet someone super handsome/wonderful/prince-like and have this moment of dazzling dalliance.

8. Nothing is that serious...you can take it all with a grain of salt...you don't owe anybody anything.

9. You can dance with anyone and everyone...or no one (Hello frat boi w/ glasses, I see you).

10. You don't have to fluff anyone's ego but your own.

11. Free drinks and dinners from single guys (It's not taking advantage if they're offering; a girl's gotta eat).

12. You have more time to learn how to love and improve yourself rather than constantly pouring your energy into another person.

13. You don't have to sacrifice your cheesy Jen Aniston rom-coms and Gilmore Girls for his Fast and Furious/other dumb action movie featuring blonde that is only in the movie to supply a relationship to the male lead and to make him look more masculine/empowered in juxtaposition (In other words, you don't have to deal with a guy being a crabby Patty while you watch your cute movies).

14. You can daydream about what your future husband may be doing right now (and not get stressed/guilty out because you're not picturing your current boyfriend that's crazy about you as your future husband).

15. There is more time to be spent with your girlfriends.

Girls Night In
Milk + Blush

We've all been there - you've been saying since Tuesday after French that this weekend is the weekend. You're finally going to break out those new heels and actually put on eyeliner on and make this Friday night be one for the memory books! That is, of course, until Girls Night Out turned into...Girls Night In.

Whether you believe astrology is a legitimate "science" or not, we have all found ourselves looking at our horoscopes from time to time. The 12 astrological signs all fall under one of four elements: air, water, earth, or fire. Air signs are rational, social, and love to communicate with others. Water signs are are emotional, intuitive, and mysterious. Fire signs tend to be passionate, creative, and adventurous. Earth signs are conservative, realistic, and loyal.

Each sign is determined by the relative positions of celestial bodies to ourselves at our moment of birth, which is said to influence our personalities. Find your zodiac GIF below, based on the traits and characteristics provided by each sign.
