What's Worse Than The Presidential Debate?

Let's be honest: it isn't the end of the world, yet.

For those of you brave souls who tuned in to the Presidential Debate between Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton, those held captive in political Facebook, and those trapped in Twitter, I write this article in your honor.

13 Things Worse Than The TrumpTon Debate

1. Running Out Of Krispy Kreme Donuts

"If the glazed goodness doesn't get me first, the box of 12 I just ate will." *eats another doughnut casually while dying*

2. Break-Ups

Trust me; we'll move past this debate....you actually won't remember much about it.

3. Taco Bellarrhea

*wipes tear from corner of eye*

4. Breaking An iPhone

Bad debates cost you a fraction of your cable bill; I could pay off my student loans if it weren't for paying to repair that dang iPhone screen.

5. People Who Don't Like The Office

GOT 'EM!!

6. Tuition Prices

They said it was just "inflation". They said it was fine; I can't afford Ramen noodles.

7. Stepping On A Lego

Toupee Trauma ain't got nothing on lego warfare.

8. Going To Jail For Deleting Emails

Even Hillary thinks I'm funny....or is that laugh a little fake? Who cares!

9. Being A Human Orange

The Donald can't deny it; I guess I'm on my way to uniting the American people.

10. Flu Season

People cough; we be like "not today Satan".

11. Friendly Fire in Video Games

We were brothers; we were family, but then you destroyed my kill streak.

12. The 1975 Breaking Up

I didn't say anything. What? I can't...LALALALALALALALALALALALALALALA

13. Not Having Presidential Debates or Elections

Hey, maybe we don't love our options. Maybe this year feels like a joke, but let's remember, it could be worse. We still have Presidential Debates, Elections, Krispy Kreme Donuts, The 1975, Netflix, and the rest of our lives ahead of us. Say no to political agendas and the political correctness that divides families, friendships, and our news feeds. Say yes to funny gifs, memes, and our future.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

Whether you met your new love interest online, through mutual friends, or another way entirely, you'll definitely want to know what you're getting into.

Consider these 21 questions to ask in the talking stage when getting to know that new guy or girl you just started talking to:

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.
