I think if life had a single, defining motto, it would be “F*** Your Feelings.” In my humble experience, when life has a truth to teach you, it does not care at all about a soft delivery. It comes and smacks you in the face with the truth so you don’t forget. Judging by this Reddit...

I truly believe that we don’t deserve dogs. They’re just too good for this cruel world we live in, but damn it all am I ever glad they’re here. They’re just so lovable, it’s no surprise that dog owners/parents spend so much time thinking about and caring for their dogs. If you’re a dog lover...

This is a man’s world. And even though the song does acknowledge that it wouldn’t be nothing without a woman or a girl, our society still seems to be pretty lacking in appreciation of that fact (or the fact that it’s not exclusively a man’s world anyway). Women have been treated as lesser for such...

Necessity may be the mother of invention, but I’d put forth that so are happy accidents. It’s kind of nuts how many things we take for granted today that were originally developed by someone trying to do something totally different from what their groundbreaking inventions actually got used for. And that’s good news for us! 1....

The “Distracted Boyfriend” meme is one of the most popular memes this year. There was a solid month or so where it was being widely shared in its various iterations all over social media. In case you’ve somehow missed it up until now, it’s a meme that’s based on this stock photo of a young...

Much as we all wish we could be Rico Suave all the time, the fact of the matter is that all of us have committed our share of faux pas. Don’t feel bad, though, because this Reddit thread proves you’re not alone. 1. Google Search My crush came to my house to do a high...

If you’ve ever done yoga, it’s likely that you’re already familiar with doing some breathing exercises at the start and finish of a session. Yogis have always understood that controlling and changing your breath can help you calm down or amp up as needed. Now, psychologists are starting to discover this as well. The exercise...

Have you ever had something happen to you that you instantly knew nobody else would ever believe you about? Maybe you shared a secret kiss with a supermodel or sighted something that did not belong to this world. I’ve had a few moments like this, but I’m not sure you would believe me. Anyway, let’s see...

Jason Momoa is in serious contention for “Most Interesting Man in the World” these days. Between rock climbing, ax throwing (seriously!), working with his hands, being a great dad to his kids, and oh yeah, being a freakin’ Hollywood megastar, he’s easily one of the coolest people on the planet. As such, any photo featuring...

Love. According to The Beatles, it’s all you need, and we certainly know from countless movies, books, TV shows, songs that love is one of the most iconic, definitive human experiences. One of the key tenets of just about every love story is that it’s between one man and one woman who then go on to live...

We all have secrets. Some are big, some are small, but we’ve all got ’em. We recently scoured through several Reddit threads to find some of the biggest secrets people have been keeping inside. 1. Daaaaaaaaaaamn Woman I was going to marry cheated on me after 6 years together. 6 months later the guy she...

We humans have always loved getting our buzz on. Between beer, wine, and various other indigenous alcohols, we’ve been guzzling down hooch for thousands of years. There are even some scientists who believe that organized agriculture first developed not for the production of bread, but booze! Wine is so popular that several cultures have gods...

Marijuana. Cannabis. Weed. Pot. Ganja. Herb. Reefer. Jazz cigarettes. The chronic. Wacky tabaccy. The Devil’s lettuce. Whatever name you call it, there’s no denying that 45% of American adults have admitted to experimenting with it at some point in their lives. It’s not just delinquents either – there are plenty of high-profile celebrities, business moguls, and...

We’ve all got our pet peeves – little things that really bother us even though they’re pretty harmless and not necessarily that annoying. For instance, my wife sometimes likes to tap her fingers on the headboard as we’re winding down for the evening. It’s just a light, repetitive tap but after a few minutes, it really...

Life is unpredictable. Sometimes, things happen out of the blue that are just so much of a coincidence that you can’t help but wonder if it was a setup. Check out some of the craziest coincidences that really happened to people. 1. Mr. Impatient I was headed in for a job interview several years back....
