Over and Under

In college I have realized that a lot of things are overrated. For example, college. So overrated. Since I am a creeper, I often over hear people talking about things that are "cool" or "awesome" and it kinda makes me sick. People are really confused about things that are actually cool. So this post is to help all of you get things right. I am going to list the most overrated things in life. Hopefully it can help you get on the right path.

Top 5 Most Overrated Things

1. Reality TV- There are way too many reality TV shows that lack quality. It seems the TV execs are going for quantity over quality. This is a horrible blow for TV. I say get rid of all of the lame reality shows (aka VH1 altogether) and let's concentrate on the good ones (SYTYCD)!

2. Facebook- Blogging is SO much cooler...Chelsea....But really. People get addicted? Come on. It really isn't that cool. And stop inviting me to join Farmville. I don't know what that is and I never will, so stop.

3. Matching Socks- Is this really necessary? Sure there are those few times that people might actually see your socks, but usually they are unseen, especially ankle socks which 95% of the world's population wear. Do we really have to take the time to match socks? I think not. If you are one of those people who freak out when the dryer eats your socks, to you I say calm down. Just wear whatever you have, they don't have to match!

4. Plaid- OMG! Why are people still wearing plaid?! It was in like 4 seasons ago! (and even then it was a stretch) People need to stop. There are very few and I mean VERY FEW plaids that people can still get away with, but really, let's just stop altogether. Plaid is done. Sorry farmers.

5. The Office- It had a good run, especially the first few seasons, but it just might be time to say good-bye. Pam and Jim got married and are preggers. What more could we want? The episodes aren't really that funny anymore and people who think they are need to branch out and see what else is out there. Other shows are way funnier. It's ok though. The Office will always hold a special place in our hearts, but in all honesty, it's overrated.

This post wouldn't be complete without mentioning the top 5 things that are underrated. Since I just crushed the dreams of a lot of people in the world, the least I could do is give them a few hints about stuff that is ACTUALLY cool and not overratedly cool. Here you go people.

Top 5 Most Underrated Things

1. 30 Rock. You think The Office is funny? Please. It has nothing on 30 Rock. Not since Arrested Development have I laughed so hard at the TV. Brilliant. And even dumb people can understand some of the jokes! Awesome.

2. Chocolate Milk- Be honest, how often do you drink chocolate milk? Not very often I bet. But when you do drink chocolate milk, do you enjoy it? Of course! There is no better treat than a tall cold glass of Choco Milk. I think if we all drank more of it, we would rid the world of depression and war. It's delicious and a cure-all.

3. Snuggies- We all make fun of snuggies, the blanket with arms, but have you ever tried one? I have never heard an owner of a snuggie complain about it. They LOVE them! Sure the concept sounds ridiculous, but I bet when pants were first invented they sounded crazy too. Besides, snuggies are comfortable as heck! Believe dat!

4. Silly Putty- The most fun you will ever find in a colored egg. I personally carry around silly putty in my purse, and I can honestly say I am never bored. Lame class lectures? Pull out the silly putty and you can have hours of fun. It is also a conversation starter. My classmates always look at me with a puzzled face and ask,"Is that silly putty?" When I say yes they laugh, but then ask to play. Greatest toy ever, and most definitely underrated.

5. Demetri Martin- Seriously one of the funniest people ever! How can you go wrong with a name like Demetri? Not only is this comedian funny, he is insightful and a genius. He made a 436 word palindrome. How many other people have done that? NONE. Everyone should watch his special "If I" on youtube. Hilarious and amazing.

So there you have it people. Top 5 most over and under-rated things in the world. It was hard to pick only 5 because there are lots of other things in this world that are over and under-rated. Believe me. But I didn't want to shock anyone. A little bit at a time works best I think. However, feel free to add on your insights. I encourage it in fact. You can also correct me if you feel I made a mistake, but in all honestly, that rarely happens and I will probably just shut you down. Enjoy!
