Visionaries are often called nuts, or live as a bit of an outcast in their contemporary world. Human beings like the status quo, and they don’t have the time or inclination to envision a world that’s so different from our own. We’re a bit like ostriches, burying our heads and hoping nothing changes while we’re...

Being lied to isn’t usually funny, but sometimes the things people are expecting us to believe are just so wild there’s nothing to do but laugh. My personal favorite is when you call them on it and they just double down. These 12 lies are completely unbelievable and outrageous; we hope they make you laugh,...

It’s natural for younger people to dream of all the riches they’ll wring from the world when they have their chance to grab it by the throat. We all want to make a difference, to be remembered, and sure, to make a load of cash while we’re doing it. The truth is that the word...

Organ donations is one of those subjects that people tend to be passionate about, and for good reason -it is, after all, life and death. As someone whose sister is alive because of a donor, I have feelings of my own. All of those feelings aside, though, this guy wonders what happens if you donate...

Even fans of Saturday Night Live will tell you that every single season hasn’t been a gem, but overall, there’s no show that has made us laugh, or been more consistently entertaining and relevant, through the decades of our lives. So, chances are you love to know more about the actors and characters and show that...

Even if you’re not an avid fan of the live weekend staple, there’s almost no way to escape the characters that have become a part of the fabric of entertainment across the board. The show has run for decades, has played host to pretty much anyone who matters in Hollywood, and has spawned countless talented...

We all get a little crazy sometimes. We say and do things in the heat of the moment that embarrass the people we’re with, and when they tell us as much later, we can reflect on the experience and realize they were right and we took it too far. Other times, though, we look back...

You’ve seen those giant subs that are like, longer than a full-grown human being, right? Well, did you know that people actually order them in real life? And then – apparently – measure them and divide by the number of people at their party (at least in their head)? The subs are obviously made to...

Money is one of those things that can make the best of relationships strained – and that applies to even the closest of families, too. Everyone has ideas of how it is best spent, and if you’re talking about children and parents, that extends to who should pay what for who, and how much. While...

Family is complicated. There are good families, bad families, and literally every kind of family in between. Our families love us, they embarrass us, they hurt us, they support – only the people who know you better than anyone else be all of those things at once. Weddings seem to amplify emotions and tensions, so...

Anyone who has worked in food service knows the adage that “the customer is always right” is basically law. As a waitress, I bit my tongue and apologized for things that were not my fault, replaced items that were perfectly fine, and yes, listened to more than my fair share of frivolous complaints. This head...

In this day and age, we depend on delivery drivers more than ever. We’re getting food, groceries, essentials, clothes, and pretty much everything else from online stores or through apps, which are then delivered to our doors and porches by the men and women who up for the job. I’m sure you’re not surprised to...

They say it’s good to know people, and it’s nice to have friends in high places and all of that, but I don’t think that most of us – no matter how great or rich our friends are – expect them to gift us substantial amounts of cash, no strings attached. Money does weird things...

Get ready to hear about it from your vegetarian and vegan friends – it turns out there is more proof than ever that human beings who eat more plant than animal protein are healthier in the long run. I know, I know, hamburgers and steaks are delicious, but just hear me out – because study...

Delivery drivers are busier than ever these days – between groceries, food, essentials, clothes, and everything else we can buy online and have ferried directly to our doors, there are plenty of jobs to be had. There are downsides to everything, though, and everyone has rough days at work – and once you read these...
