Why 'How I Met Your Mother' Is Your Next Binge Show
Silly Punter

In this day and age, almost everyone will at some point binge watch tv shows. There is one show that stands out and I will watch over and over again: How I Met Your Mother. Regardless of your streaming service of choice, here are eight reasons you should give it a try:

1. We can all relate with the characters

Each character goes through their own trials and tribulations. The different situations are similar to what we would experience. Anyone can find a character in this show that they identify with. You fall in love with the characters and when they experience their hard times you can't help but feel sorry for them.

2. We can find comfort in dealing with real life situations

The show deals with the tough situations in life that everybody hates. The show bounces between death, job loss, and a variety of other real life issues.

3. The Inside jokes are terrific

There are a number of inside jokes, like I am sure you have with your friends. You get to understand them because the way the stories are told you are essentially one of them.

4. There is always something to high five about

Especially when you can go from one season right to the next, and don't have to wait for it to air on TV.

5. The content of the show is cleaner than most television shows today

The show does attract teenagers to young adults, but the producers are clever in finding ways to cover up.

6. You can learn some life lessons

Some of the lessons that are expressed and learned are reached through extreme examples or stories, but it helps get the point across.

7. You get to learn from the modern day Romeo and Juliet, the one and only Lilly and Marshal


Lily and Marshal are together from the beginning. They exemplify real life issues married couples have to handle, and you see how both of them love each other more and more every day.

8. In our generation, no show makes us more thankful for our friends

These five are the best of friends. They support each other in everything that happens. We see how they all go through different things but their friends are always there no matter what. This shows that our friends are always there for us and it makes us more and more thankful for them every day.

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.
