Are You Seeing Anyone?
Do cookies count as “anyone?" There is literally not a single question more annoying than this. I totally understand why they ask; it’s a safe conversation topic and if the answer is yes it leads to more conversation and it avoids taboo topics such as politics. Butttt if the answer is no, it’s not only awkward but beyond embarrassing. Plus, if you’ve been a single pringle for a while then that question starts to get old real fast.
What are You Hoping to do With Your Major?
Most of the time we have not a single clue what we want to do with our major, or we know what we want to do but aren’t exactly sure how to do it. Jobs are slim these days and we already have enough to worry about without having to explain it to someone else.
What Will You Do this Summer?
Ahhh I don’t know. Sometimes we have something lined up and sometimes we have applied to everything under the sun and end up watching the first full season of Riverdale and eating three bags of Dorito’s. Regardless, we probably don’t have that figured out by the time the holidays roll around.
Isn't _________ a Tough Industry?
Honestly, everything is a tough industry these days. But specifically, whether you're referring to an industry where the pay is low or industries where it's particularly difficult to get a job; odds are that we already have thought that and been told that millions of times.
Where do You Want to Live After College?
Most of us don’t even know what we want to eat for breakfast, let alone where we want to live next year, let alone where we want to live when we graduate. The future is a somewhat scary idea for a good amount of people, especially college students and being reminded of all of our upcoming decisions is hardly something we look forward to.
