Who needs TGIF when you have TGIT: “Thank God It’s Thursday”?! We can all thank Shonda Rhimes for making Thursday nights either our favorite or most emotional night of the week. You get back-to-back episodes of all your favorite female leads: dark and twisty Meredith Grey from Grey’s Anatomy at 8, gladiator Olivia Pope from Scandal at 9 and last but certainly not least bad ass lawyer Annalise Keating from How to Get Away with Murder at 10. You never know what to expect on any given Thursday night. However, it doesn’t matter what kind of emotional roller coaster ride Shondaland takes us on, you can guarantee that we will always be faithful to TGIT. Here are a few ways to know if you’re addicted to TGIT:
1. You plan your Thursday nights according to TGIT.
2. You have popcorn and wine for dinner.
The wine doesn’t even have to be in a bottle.
3. You’re convinced that you’re a real surgeon because you’ve seen all 11 seasons of Grey’s Anatomy.
When someone starts coding you automatically know to “push epi!”
4. You constantly find yourself quoting Meredith Grey
5. It’s Handled is your new catch phrase
6. Annalise Keating makes you question your ethics.
7. You sobbed for days when Shonda killed off McDreamy and McSteamy.
I mean seriously?! Look at them!
8. You ship #Coliver
Who wouldn’t ship these two?
9. You find yourself constantly asking this question:
10. You call your best friend your person.
11. When you find yourself stressing, there’s only one solution : DANCE IT OUT!
12. You’re just waiting for the day you can use this line
13. Your emotional state on Friday rests solely in the hands of Shonda Rhimes.
You can never have too much TGIT in your life! So grab your popcorn and your favorite bottle of red wine then pop a squat on the couch! Until next time collegeiettes!
