It's almost fall (the best season by far, don't get me wrong) again and you know what that means: Pumpkin Spice Latte season. It's everywhere — in candles, loaves of bread, I even saw pumpkin spice Frosted Flakes the other day. But the most important PSL flavored thing around is the coffee (obviously.)

People go absolutely nuts when this Starbucks drink gets reintroduced every year. Starbucks even released it early this year so people were going even more nuts.

Honestly, I don't get the hype. I've tasted the latte and it's alright, but I've had better coffee. In my ~very~ unpopular opinion Pumpkin Spice Lattes aren't good and the world would continue to turn without them, but since they do exist, here are 25 things I'd rather do than drink one.

1. Give the class a fun fact about myself

Giphy

2. Listen to Justin Beiber songs a continuous loop

Giphy

3. Have to survive the summer without air conditioning

Giphy

4. Only be able to watch daytime soap operas for TV for the rest of my life

Giphy

5. Listen to Christmas music all year round

Giphy

Yes, this is a bad thing

6. Run a marathon

Giphy

7. Clean my entire house with a toothbrush

Giphy

8. Use that same toothbrush to brush my teeth

Giphy

9. Laundry for my entire family

Giphy

10. Wash dishes with slimy, unknown food particles still stuck to them

Giphy

11. Shave my head

Giphy

12. Watch only Nicholas Cage movies for the rest of my life

Giphy

13. Walk barefoot through a fire ant bed

Giphy

14. Go Black Friday shopping

Giphy

This too is a bad thing...

15. Always be stuck behind someone driving five miles an hour below the speed limit

16. Have a pop quiz every time I go to class

17. Have lemon juice poured into my eyes

18. Always feel a popcorn kernel stuck between my teeth

19. Only be able to wear soaking wet socks

20. Have my teeth pulled with no anesthetic

21. Get braces again

Giphy

22. Always feel like I have to sneeze

23. Always have a rock stuck in my shoe

24. Relive middle school

Giphy

25. Count blades of grass

Enjoy your Pumpkin Spice everything!

Epic Creation Myths: Norse Origins Unveiled

What happened in the beginning, and how the heavens were set in motion.

Now, I have the everlasting joy of explaining the Norse creation myth. To be honest, it can be a bit kooky, so talking about it is always fun. The entire cosmos is included in this creation myth, not just the earth but the sun and the moon as well. This will be a short retelling, a summary of the creation myth, somewhat like I did with Hermod's ride to Hel.

Summer is hot and humid, and it's almost like summer was made specifically to drink the refreshing, cold, crisp wonderful, delicious, nutritious nectar of the gods. Which is none other than beer; wonderful cold beer. With summer playing peek-a-boo around the corner while we finish up this semester, it's time to discuss the only important part of summer. And if you haven't already guessed, it's beer. There are few things I take more seriously than my beer, in order are: sports... and beer. Here are my favorite summer brews:
