All Netflix bingers are weird, but everyone is their own kind of weird.

What The Show You Binge on Netflix Says About You
whats-on-netflix.com

Netflix is one of the best things to happen to mankind. You can watch anything from classic 90's films to foreign horror stories. However, one does not just enjoy Netflix. The term "Netflix and chill" was coined sometime last year, meaning you pick some random show or movie from your plethora of categories and you don't *chill*. Those losers waste eight dollars a month but we the people who engage in episode after episode, we are the real winners here. So much so that we have been put into our own division also known as the Netflix binge watchers. Like everything else in America, we can't enjoy things in moderation, we have to take it to the next level. There's many different kinds of Netflix binge watchers, these are their stories.

1. Grey's Anatomy/Private Practice.

You probably have performed surgery on a paper cut since starting either of these series. Your major has either changed to pre-med recently or you have already changed it because who wouldn't want to work in a doctors office with Patrick Dempsey? These people are extremely emotionally unstable due to their favorite characters dying all the time because the creators hate their viewers, obviously.


2. Bob's Burgers.

Your sense of humor is somewhere between my Grandpa and a small child. Bob's Burgers is the less vulgar version of Family Guy and one of the few dumb cartoons that girls actually like. Most everyone can relate to Tina but strives to be Louise. If you can't laugh at Bob's Burgers, your soul is dead.


3. Orange is the New Black.

You have a sick sense of humor, but also know what not to do so you won't end up in jail. You hate Porn Stache and love Tasty. Most of our non-OITNB friends can't watch the show because they don't get us, and I will admit it can get a little extreme. It takes a special kind of person to be intrigued by an underground prison panty sales operation.


4. Stranger Things.

You are no longer able to sleep. You thought Eleven was a boy. You love the 80's or think its such a train wreck that you can't look away. You have mixed emotions about Barb. The classic debate over whether Nancy should be with Steve or Jonathan has probably destroyed a few of your friendships.

5. New Girl.

Your Pinterest board is now covered in apartment inspiration pictures that include brick walls and a talking stick. You have considered becoming a teacher. You have probably played "All American" once or twice with your roommates, in fact you yell "FDR!" in your sleep. You experience constant inner turmoil about whether Jess should be with Nick or Sam. Also, you wish Nick was your bartender.


6. Narcos.

You have somewhat of a dark soul. You hate Pablo Escobar and everything he did to the country of Colombia but you sympathize for his wife, children, and mother. Death no longer makes you queasy.


7. Making a Murderer.

You think you could be an attorney or that you're practically already qualified. How the heck could someone not see all of the legal faults in Avery's case? You have definitely spent a lot of time online further researching whether or not he has been released yet. You ask everyone "Have you seen 'Making a Murderer?'" You have a strong hate for the state of Wisconsin.

8. How I Met your Mother.

Blue French Horns have significance to you. You're super passionate about Neil Patrick Harris. You high five everyone.

9. Friends.

You clearly hate new television because you continually watch a show that went off air in 2004. You have started not wearing a bra because Jennifer Aniston is hashtag goals. You probably don't have actual friends and that's why you obsess over this show so much.

10. Jane the Virgin.

You wish your life was a telenovela. You love Rafael, but Michael WAS Jane's first true love. You fear the gynecologist now because the possibility of accidental artificial insemination terrifies you. Mateo is an angel. You live a stressed life because you don't know when the next twist will come about. Rogelio is your spirit animal.

11. One Tree Hill.

You have spent your entire life (since becoming obsessed with OTH) trying to figure out why you don't live down the road from all of your high school best friends. You entered college thinking life would lead you in a great direction and success would come find you. It didn't.

12. Breaking Bad.

You have considered developing your own meth lab. You are still emotional about the finale. You have a semi-dark soul but with a soft spot. You stay up at night wondering if they will make another season because your life just hasn't been the same without it.

13. The Office/Parks and Recreation.

Your humor is corny and dry and everyone loves you for it. While you never considered a job that sticks you in a cubicle all day, you now think it might be a fun thing to be a part of. You hope the real world office jobs are as great as these.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
