Skunks
Forget about cats and dogs. Goldfish are a waste of time. Ferrets? Boring. The only pets worth college students' time are skunks. No, I'm not joking. They're soft, they're cuddly and they're affectionate, and they're better than the fiercest guard dog. Just make sure you seek out a skunk breeding farm when you decide to make this addition to your life, rather than searching on the side of the road. That way, your skunk won't spray you - and it'll be alive.

'How I Met Your Mother'
Yes
kids - this is going to be a long story Bob Saget says in the first episode of How I Met Your Mother - and it has been. The CBS sitcom premiered five years ago, and Ted Mosby still hasn't told his kids how he met the titular non-character. Now on its sixth season, HIMYM is still fresh and very entertaining due to an all-star cast including Buffy's Alyson Hannigan, Knocked Up's Jason Segel and Neil Patrick Harris, who plays the hilarious womanizer Barney Stinson. Check it out on CBS at 8 o'clock Monday nights. Legen ... dary!

Crew Socks
For those of you woefully unaware, the crew sock is a decorative sock that reaches just below the knee. The crew sock is the perfect fall fashion statement as it provides warmth for a quarter of the leg, and when paired with a shorter or longer skirt, it adds an extra zing of style. The more absurd the sock is, the better, because it is like a personal source of inspiration from your foot. As winter dawns, let these long socks pop out of boots or hide beneath jeans as an extra layer of warmth. Even Taylor Swift said crew socks paired with Oxford flats are her favorite fashion statement of the moment, and who can argue with that adorable starlet?
