I wish there were a way to articulate my love for Mindy Kaling in a manner that hasn’t been said before. Unfortunately, it has been said many times, but I will say it again: I wish Mindy Kaling was my best friend.

I wrote her a rambling fan letter once, but never sent it because I sounded insane; I read it over and was like, “God, be cool for once!” I guess this is my way of making up for sending that letter.

Here are the reasons she would make an amazing bestie, based on her Twitter presence alone.

She says what we're all thinking

She asks the hard-hitting questions

She gives great advice

Like, really great advice

Seriously the best advice!

(OK, maybe not the suitcase part.)

She understands the emoji game...

Really understands it

Also: The pie game...

She understands the politics of modern-day pet names

And knows how to have the best boy-talk

She’d be great to watch movies with

Especially ‘cause she doesn’t have time for this pretentious crap

And because she is equally as upset about this as I am

She drops truths like this

And this…

Did I mention she gives the best advice?

The only advice anyone will ever need!

We love you, Mindy!
