I’m gonna go ahead and say it. No, I don’t have children, but I think people who use their children as tools and pawns on social media to get likes and try to become “influencers” are honestly kind of sick. But a lot of people out there think it’s wholesome and cute…and that’s just plain...

We all have our own opinions about things, but when it comes to what’s toxic or harmful, I think people are really divided. And that makes sense because pretty much EVERYTHING is really divided right now. But still, it’s probably good to get to the bottom of things that aren’t good for us at the...

Well, this promises to be an interesting discussion, don’t you think?

It’s kind of funny how trends catch on and everyone seems to buy into them…and then a little while later, most people wise up and realize that maybe that thing wasn’t so great, after all… Life is weird. What do people think is bad for us that is actually good? Let’s see what folks on...

It always breaks my heart when I hear about people (particularly older folks) who get bilked out of all their money because they fell for a scam. And it also makes me want to find the people responsible for those scams so I could have a few words with them. Bottom line: there are a...

Love is blind. I’m sure you’ve heard that saying before. And it’s pretty true. Especially in the early days of a relationship. You see things that might bother you but you tend to ignore them or convince yourself that it won’t happen again…until it does. Women discuss the red flags they glossed over early in...

I have this debate with older people in my family a lot, but they are just absolutely horrified that marijuana is now legal in so many states across the country. But ci**rettes and al**hol? Hey, those are no big deal at all! And yes, as you all know, those are perfectly legal if you’re of...

I consider myself something of a history buff so I’m very excited to dive into these responses about the biggest blunders in human history. Because I’m pretty well versed in 20th Century U.S. and European history, but I literally know nothing about ancient history or the Medieval period, etc. So we’re gonna learn a whole...

I had an old roommate who didn’t know how to make macaroni and cheese. And we were adults… I was kind of dumbfounded because he also wanted me to give him a lesson on how to do it. He was so blown away that I’d made this exotic dish that he just had to know...

I traveled quite a bit when I was younger and I think the place that felt the most “different” to me was Russia. I was there for 10 days in 2003 and it was definitely an eye-opener. But I know that there are other places on the planet that would really shock me if I...

Things that go bump in the night… You know you’ve heard these unsettling noises in the middle of the night when you’ve been home alone. So what do you do? Ignore it? Get up and go exploring with a flashlight? It’s all a crapshoot… Have you ever investigated a strange noise at night? AskReddit users...

There’s a page on Reddit called “Malicious Compliance” where people share their very interesting stories and we’re here to check out another one today. It has to do with work and a boss who seems like a real pain in…well, you know. Let’s check out the story and what folks on Reddit had to say...

People are weird. The world is weird. So it’s only natural that sometimes you’re gonna see some stuff out there that really catches you off guard, you know what I’m saying? Have you ever said, “you don’t see that every day”? These AskReddit users did and they shared their stories. 1. The Big Apple. “My...

You live and you learn. And the older you get, the more aware you become of how many people out there are bad news. And that they’re looking to scam you in any way they can. So you gotta keep your eyes open, folks! AskReddit users opened up and admitted the biggest scams they’ve ever...
