Top 20 Most Underrated Items

Most of the time, we walk through life without acknowledging incredible phenomena that make our lives easier and bring us joy. So let's take a moment to appreciate some of the more underrated parts of our day.

1. The Internet

We all complain about how bad our wifi is, but honestly isn't it a miracle that this thing even exists at all?

2. Curly fries

Constantly overshadowed by their cousins, Sweet Potato Fries and Tater Tots, curly fries deserve their moment of glory.

3. @dadjokehansolo on Twitter

Because nothing makes your day like puns about Star Wars.

4. Google Maps

From giving us directions back to school to finding out the location of the nearest 24-hour CVS, we salute you, Google Maps, and all that you do for us.

5. 24 hour diners

We all know where to go when it's 2 am and we're craving home fries.

6. iPhone cameras

You have to appreciate them, if even begrudgingly.

7. Nose hair trimmers

Small, easy to forget, but pretty useful.

8. Easybib.com

Everyone owes easybib a thank you note and a fruit basket.


9. Movie subtitles

We appreciate you, even though you annoy us a lot of the time.


10. The Earth

In all honesty, I feel like we could all use a reminder to appreciate the ground we walk on every day.


11. 24 Hours of a Christmas Story on TBS

From 8 pm on December 24th until 8 pm on Christmas day, Ralphie Parker is always a welcome guest in my living room.

12. Nilla wafers

We always opt for the Cheez Its or the Chips Ahoy. For once, maybe it's time to go for the wafers.

13. Awnings

There is nothing better during a downpour than to walk under an awning and feel the sweet relief from the rain.

14. Really big wine glasses

For the alcoholic in all of us.

15. Mail

That small thrill you get when you see an envelope addressed to you and it's not bills.

16. Pocket change

Bringing a jar full of change to the bank and seeing how much you've accumulated is always an adrenaline rush.


17. Lyric videos on youtube

God bless the Panda lyric video.

18. Blenders

From morning smoothies to margaritas, blenders are a necessary yet underrated kitchen appliance.

19. The Pink Panther

Who doesn't love Steve Martin and some damn burgers?

20. Shopping for school supplies

Ah, yes, the illusion of productivity.

In case you're unaware, "resting bitch face" is the term used to describe when a person's natural, expressionless face makes it look like they are mad at the world. Whether they are walking down the street or simply spacing out thinking about what to eat for dinner, it's very easy for others to assume that this person is either upset or mad at them. Because of this, those of us with Resting Bitch Face (RBF), and especially us women, have all experienced many of the same situations and conversations, including:

We've all had a crush before. Whether it leads to something or nothing, the process has all been the same. The awkward feelings, the stalking, and the stress of trying to keep this huge secret. The feeling of becoming a total spazz is something that cannot be avoided, and the most spazzy family that can relate to this feeling is the Belcher's.

At the tender age of 18, we are bestowed with the title of ā€œadult.ā€ For 17 years, we live under the rules and guidelines of our parents, school, and government, and to stray from any of those rules or guidelines marks us as a rebel. At 18, though, we must choose which college we want to go to or what career we want. We are allowed and encouraged to vote. We can buy lottery tickets and cigarettes. We can drop out of school, leave our household, and do other "adult" things. At 18, we start down a path of thinking for ourselves, when for the entirety of our lives other institutions have been mandated to think and do for us.

Creating your schedule for the upcoming semester can be an exciting process. You have the control to decide if you want to have class two-days a week or five-days a week. You get to check things off of your requirement checklist. It's an opportunity for a fresh start with new classes (which you tell yourself you'll never skip.) This process, which always starts out so optimistic, can get frustrating really quickly. Here are 25 thoughts you have when registering for classes.

10 Thoughts Of A 5th Year Senior

What about those of us who don't do it all in four years?

"College will be the best four years of your life" is a phrase that we have all heard growing up. College is painted as a magical place to us while we are in high school. A place you go to learn, meet your best friends and probably have the time of your life while all of this is going down. Four whirlwind years, where everything that you've known changes and you start to learn what it means to live on your own, have a job, etc. But what about those of us who don't do this all in four years? Major changes, hard courses, switching schools, career paths changing, these are just a handful of factors that could extend your four years to five, six or seven. There is nothing wrong with taking extra time to graduate, but returning as a fifth-year is a little different. Most of your best friends have most likely graduated and moved and while you may be one of the oldest undergraduates on campus, you might feel as awkward as a freshmen. A world that became home and comfortable to you is still there but it's slightly different than you've known it to be and you have to find a groove to fall into. These are thoughts you'll have as you look ahead to returning to your college campus, with a victory lap planned.
