Who in this generation hasn't watched John Mulaney? If not, lucky you, Netflix (and probably Youtube) have recorded his shows for easy accessibility for those who literally cannot pay for a show ticket (either broke, a college student, or most likely broke!). Either way, whether you've watched him or not, he has got to be the comedian that is the most relatable to this generation. Or this is also just an excuse to share GIFs of Mulaney's funniest sayings.

1. Adult life... not as great as it sounds...

It honestly is. There's cooking, laundry and maybe even school you still have to go through? Weird.

2. We're all introverts. 

Okay, don't try heroin though. Let's not be the generation that is hooked on heroin, okay? We would all rather be in bed watching Netflix. And eating ice cream. And that's about it.

3. Our social media presence 

When we don't get a +200 views/likes on our Instagram. Or when we don't want to upload a photo because of the "aesthetic".

4. We honestly prefer cats/dogs to kids. 

You see those middle schoolers across the street? Yup you turn around and walk the other way because you do not need that negativity right now.

5. He went to college...annnnd hated it. 

We're all honestly paying too much for college. And for what? For the $60+ sweatshirt and a college degree that probably won't matter in 10 years?

6. Don't we all think of Trump as a really dumb horse?

Who honestly let the horse into the hospital? AKA who voted for Trump, it's okay turn on your location, I just want to talk.

7. We're all somehow disappointing our fathers.

His dad said this to him and if this doesn't describe a lot of millennial relationships with their parents (aka the whole older/generation Y people in general), then I don't know what does.

8 Things I Realized After My First Semester In College

Actually, Kylie Jenner, 2018 is the year of realizing things.

Friends

The first semester of college is famous for being one of the most difficult transitions of one's young adult life. You're thrown into a completely new area where the majority of the people surrounding you are strangers in an academic environment that's much more challenging then what you've grown accustomed to for the past twelve years. On top of that, you probably share a room with another person (or even multiple people) on the lumpiest "mattress" you've ever slept on.

With this change comes a lot of questions: what do I want to major in? What am I passionate about? Is what I'm passionate about something I'm actually good at? Why does the bathroom smell like cranberry juice and vodka? What is that thing at the bottom of the shower drain?

6 Unrealistic Expectations Society Has For Young Adults

Don't let the thesaurus-inspired vocabularies in our résumés fool you. We're actually just big kids.

Well over four feet tall and 100 pounds in weight, many of us "young adults" of the world still consider ourselves children. Big, working, college-attending, beer-drinking children. We may live on our own, know how to cook noodles, and occasionally use a planner, but don't be fooled; the youthful tendencies that reside within us still make their way into our daily lives. From choosing to stay up until 3:00 a.m. playing video games on a school night to going out in 30 degree weather without a coat, we still make decisions that our parents and grandparents would shake their heads at in disappointment. So why are we expected to know exactly how to be a wise, professional, sensible adult? It's not that we're irresponsible (for the most part, anyway). It's that we are young, inexperienced, and still have the sought-after, enthusiastic mentality that we can do and be whatever we want, which has not yet been tarnished by the reality of the world. These are just a few of the unrealistic expectations that society has for young adults.
