college

Congratulations, grads! You're now entering the real world, which means you'll be enjoying some delicious instant noodles daily and crying over countless job-application rejections! 

In all seriousness though, congrats on your achievement- getting through school isn't easy and we really wish that college graduates were more appreciated in our world today. You know, with jobs and stuff...

Earlier this week writer Caroline Moss asked Twitter to share moments of their lives that seemed more like a bad movie than something IRL. She offered up a tale of being broken up for "not being Jewish enough" while at a National concert. During the set. Many of the responses to her request dwarf her experience in the cringe zone - here are some of the most painful tales we could dig up.

We've finally made it to May! Do you know what that means? Yeah, summer is "around the corner," but before everyone can sit back and relax, there are millions of stressed students getting ready for the absolute hell that is finals week. Between the cramming, working for pennies, and internships, it is to be expected that mental health is at an all time low. Fortunately for our scholars, we have some memes here that will remind the study-addled that they're not alone. 

We think that anyone should be able to practice whatever religion they want, but we have to say that sometimes religious rules go a little far. That was definitely the case at this fundamentalist Baptist college, where they censored the nudity out of classical paintings. The results are a giant fail, but also effing hilarious.

Some people are just more delusional than we can ever fathom. Like this guy, for example. It's not a secret in this day and age that college tuition isn't even remotely affordable for most, but this guy went out of his way on Twitter to try to explain how he supposedly managed to pay his own way through his education. 

Twitter users, however, dug up some of his old tweets, and let's just say that he wasn't being especially truthful...

Maybe when are parents and their parents were our age they could afford to live alone. But when you're in college or just trying to get by, chances are you can't pony up dough to live in sweet, sweet solitude. These memes are for the claustrophobic souls that have to share their space. May we get through it all together. 

Every student knows that reading out of a textbook is boring as sh*t. Accordingly, these students decided to "enhance" their textbook illustrations, which was certainly a terrible idea, but also hilarious and we're here for it.

And of course, we're not telling you to go out and deface your textbooks, so please don't actually do that.

If you went to college, then you'll likely recall having to respond to incredibly stupid assumptions about your field of study. Every single major has its fair share of stereotypes, and these tweets, also known as "What's Your Degree In?" make light of that in an amusing way. And in the end it doesn't even matter, because who even gets a job in the field they studied anyway?

Literally any person who has been a student ever will remember the horrors of the scantron exam. If you aren't familiar for whatever reason, the scantron is a multiple-choice-style exam format that gets graded by a machine. People on Twitter have been meme-ing the scantron format by adding in their own sarcastic answers, and we're here for it.
