1) “I don’t think a degree in that is going to be helpful in the long run.”

Can we please wait four more years before crushing my dreams? Thanks.
2) “I really don’t think that that program would be a good fit for you.”

Yeah, you’re right, random stranger– you’ve definitely thought more about this than I have.
3) “If you could just spend an hour on your supplements every night, you’d be finished in no time.”

Great, thanks, you’re totally right. I just won’t sleep until January.
4) “Your scores would probably go up a lot if you just took the test one more time.”

Excuse my lack of enthusiasm, I’d just rather not spend a fourth Saturday morning sitting chained to a desk.
5) “These deadlines are only here to help you.”

Let be express my gratitude by punching a wall.
6) “I wasn’t nearly this stressed when I applied to college.”

I mean, not that anything’s changed in the past 20 years or anything…
7) “You should talk to my aunt’s hairdresser’s brother’s fiancé– he went there!”
Great! Let’s all go get coffee!
