1. Fearless in the face of third floor Jamrich.

Listen. We can be the fittest person on campus, but walking up those stairs sounds like we've just run a marathon.

2. Fearless in the face of going to class in -40 degrees.

Nah, it's cool. I don't mind my eyelashes being frozen shut during the five minute walk to class.

3. Trying not to spend all your money on Melted or Fieras.

The Boss? The Cheesy Mac and Swine? The Verde Quesadilla? What do I get? It's all so good.

4. Literally anything to do with Wildcat Willy.

That homeboy's great, man. Skating with those lil' kiddies during the hockey games. Taking pictures with people on campus - I love it.

5. Unicycle Guy. Has anyone seen him this semester?

One of my favorite things last year was his homecoming question, "Well, I'm Unicycle Guy, so I guess I already left my legacy."

6. How does Dead River Games always end up with crappy weather?

It's always freezing cold and then you get ice cream dropped on your face and it's just a hot mess.

7. And Tech still sucks!

Nothin' more to say.

8. The line for chicken strips at the MP.

If you don't get there right on time, it's over. Find yourself something else to eat or wait for half an hour in line.

9. "Hit me, pay my tuition."

We've all said these words at least once.

10. If you want to lose all of your friends, be a ticket writer. (Sorry guys.)

It's not me. It's you. And the stigma that comes with ticket writers. We trusted you. I know it's your job, but have a heart! I mean, I totally understand that people deserve tickets, but we've all had those days where everything goes wrong.

11. Northern, naturally.

Until the designated native species spots are torn down and replaced with construction.

12. Calling it "Hogsback" instead of the actual name of "Hogback."

Look it up. There's no 's.' Sorry guys.

13. Being salty about not having snow days when the snow is up to your crotch.

I understand that we go to Northern Michigan University. I understand that a lot of people think we're basically Canada. But if people are skiing to class, or wearing ski masks, or the professors are like, yo, class is cancelled because it's a blizzard out there - ya gotta do something. Take one for the team. Give us a snow day.

14. HOW COME NO ONE CAN PARK IN THE WINTER?

Literally don't care that I don't have a car here. But come on! Parking lines are there for a reason. And don't even tell me it's bad parking because you can't see the line. You don't have to see the line to know you're parking in the dead center of two spots. Don't be that guy. If anything, be the guy that parked his Jeep on top of the snow pile.
