"I'd get up, but my back's still sore from that knife you stuck in it." — when you are being deservingly petty.

1. When you get all dolled up to go out and your friends cancel at the last minute.

2. When you get an A on a test that were convinced you failed.

3. When your pal is being, as Red would say, a dumb-ass.

4. When you finish talking to a random girl in the bathroom.

5. When you are best friends with your pupper.

6. When it is laundry day.

7. When it is 11:47 p.m. and you forgot you have a quiz due at midnight.

8. When you are basically the mom of the friend group.

9. When it is 47 minutes later and you are still laughing at your own joke.

10. When you barely put up with that one person in your friend group.

11. When it is 74 minutes later and you are STILL laughing at your own joke.

There's few to come by, but history majors are the mysterious ones for colleges in Liberal Arts and Sciences. They're also going to be your favorite person in the world.

1. When you ask what the date is and they tell you...before giving us a "this day in history" fact

2. "Come over"; "Can't, writing a paper about the Renaissance"

3. Seeing the countless biographical books and DVDs in their room

4. Reading dozens of emails from History.com...

5...then reading "this day in history" instead of their texts

6. When you're walking and they spot a historical place (instead of somewhere to eat)

7. When you see them quoting historical people for their Instagram captions

8. Posting historical photos on their Instagram (instead of posting one of you two at a formal)

9. SENDING YOU HISTORICAL MEMES ON INSTAGRAM THAT YOU STILL DON'T UNDERSTAND

10. They have a calendar of either WWII or Vietnam in their room

11. "Good thing I have papers and not tests," they say as you cram six months of Algebra in your brain for a final

12. "Dropping" them off at class and there's only six other students in the classroom

13. When they're excited to see something at the Smithsonian

14. Watching historical documentaries on Netflix instead of an actual movie

15. Probably have Dean Martin, Motown, or classical music on their playlist

16. Having one final (but turns out to be a take home paper)

17. Writing their thesis at the bar on your anniversary...and you're not even mad because you know they love what they study

It's not just a song; it's a culture.

The song was written 1944 and it was a different time. Gentlemen did exist!
