John Mulaney is comedy gold. I laughed until I cried when I watched Kid Gorgeous for the first time (never did I think someone could make child kidnapping and exorbitant tuition rates so hilarious,) and his other two Netflix specials are equally as enjoyable to watch. In honor of my favorite comedian, here are some instances in which John Mulaney shows he really understands what it’s like to be a college student.
When you’re about to miss the 10A and don’t want to walk all the way to upper campus
When the security guard at the Pete gives you a hard time because you forgot your ID
When your professor tries to crack a joke at your 8 a.m.
When you want to go to Hillman to study with your friends but it’s 11 p.m. and everyone says no
When the professor says the paper is due tomorrow but you thought it was due next week
When the Ride Systems App says the 10A is coming in two minutes but it doesn’t come for another twenty
When you try to submit your paper on CourseWeb but it’s 12:01 a.m.
When you finish your finals before all of your friends
When you’re drunk at The O at 2 a.m.
When your 10-minute walk to Cathy needs to be a five-minute walk
When you’re a senior still receiving emails from clubs you never joined at the freshman year Activities Fair
When you’re forced to take a lit gen-ed
When you’re rushing a fraternity or sorority for the first time
When a frat bro sees you even remotely drunk, leaving a party on Meyran
When you finally pay off all your student debt, but your school still wants to bleed you dry
