While the typical September Scaries center around the fear of the near-end of warm weather and the coming gray-skied apocalypse, my September Scaries are around something entirely different: cuffing season. Remember last year when you were about a month into school and everyone, I mean everyone, was holding hands and swapping saliva around the campus quad? Yes, folks. That's cuffing season for you! Urban Dictionary defines cuffing season as the fall and winter months where most people go from "talking" to finding themselves in something more serious. I mean, c'mon! Who wouldn't love cuddles on those gray, cloudy, and cold mornings? Ding! Ding! Ding! That would be me!
