If there was a gif of nicname thwarting the attempted-flag-taker and then gesturing him to suck it, followed by motioning for all of Hilton Shelter to boo him louder, it'd be better than that auburn gif.

Waking up at 6:20 on a Saturday, thinking you gave to get up, and 5 seconds later realizing it's Saturday.

Waking up in the middle of the night and realizing it's only like 2AM and you have lots more sleep to do.

waking up in the middle of the night because you need to go pee so bad and then you go to the bathroom and then you go back to bed and the bed feels like 1000% better than it did when your stupid full bladder woke you up.

When you go to checkout at a store fully expecting and willing to pay the labeled price of something.  Then they ring it up and its way cheaper.

Also, living out of state and seeing other EMAWs

Being very hungry at 6:15 on a Friday or Saturday and going to the restaurant that you've been craving expecting there to be a 30 minute wait, but when you get there they seat you immediately and the person that seats you immediately gets your drink order and promptly brings it to you.

putting on a brand new pair of socks!

I hope to one day never have to wear the same pair of socks twice while still being a regular sock wearer
