We have our mortal enemies life. They comes in all shapes and sizes, and while some of them never know they have wronged us to that degree (looking at you, Andy Roddick), there are others who are perfectly away of how awful they’re being, but don’t care to change. Sadly, many of the latter come...

Personally, I don’t much care whether or not people think I’m wildly rich and/or successful, but I know that in some professions, perception can totally matter. So, if you’re looking to appear as if you make/have more money than you do, here are 15 inexpensive items you may want to invest in now. 15. Neutralize...

Being the boss isn’t easy, and for most people, I would venture to say that having to fire someone is one of the least pleasant experiences out there. That said, there will always be the people who make it easy (or even delightful), but those are rare. These 15 people, though, get the award for...

Owning vinyl has become trendy in recent years, and the scramble to once again buy record players in the age of digital music is a conundrum, for sure. That said, if you’ve been collecting records since before it was cool (you og hipster, you!) there might be an album or two on your racks worth...

In times of stress, having a drink here and there to cope, to ease anxiety or just to connect socially with friends, is very common and not unhealthy. At least, not until it is, and if you’re someone with a predisposition for addiction issues, what starts as a way to cope can all-too-soon become a...

My great grandfather Lloyd used to say that you should strive to learn something new every day. Obviously, he’s not the first (or last) person to think this is an excellent use of the years we get here on Earth – and these days, you can learn just about anything you’d like to online. Netlflix...

While many people are using their newfound free time to binge Netflix, bake bread, plant gardens, or take up new hobbies, Rob Arnold is spending a stupid amount of hours sorting through litter washing up on the beach. Look at this haul! It’s a good deed, of course, but he’s also learning that there are...

There are many downsides to online school, but if you ask me, there are also some upsides. I mean, besides being able to get up five minutes before class and not having to get dressed below the waist and all that good stuff – there are just hilarious mishaps happening every day. And because it’s...

You know the feeling – anxiety is creeping in from all sides and the moment you turn off the light, all of your worries and your endless to-do list and the reality that you’ll never really be caught up all come crashing in. It doesn’t matter how tired you were when you laid down or...

It’s something of a joke these days, how excited women get when they find that their new skirt or dress has pockets. If you’re a woman, though, you know that it’s not exactly funny – we get so excited because not only do our dresses often not have pockets, half the time our pants don’t...

Now is the time to allow yourself all of the little comforts in life – a fact that was made even more true for me when I woke up to snow this morning. *sigh* Anyway, I know that for me, food is a major way that I take care of myself on those days when...

When we think of bingeing something, Netflix or another streaming television service probably comes to mind. Or maybe you love bingeing all of the Star Wars movies (even those three that shall not be named), or you could technically binge a book, I suppose. If you don’t already have podcasts in your mass consumption rotation,...

There’s a lot of worry and fear floating around about all of the information about you that could (and probably is) stored in all of the Internet’s dusty corners. We’ve been spending more and more time online for the past 15 years, and all of that time, nothing has been deleted. The internet is forever,...

As a writer, I can tell you that ending a story is harder than writing the rest of it. You want to be true to the story and characters, satisfy people, and not totally subvert what you were trying to do the entire time, but here’s the thing – literally everyone will have a different...

There are millions of websites in the world, and we all only have so much time on our hands to mine the internet for the good stuff. Unless your friends tell you about an awesome site or one catches the eye of the mainstream media (or the Twitterverse) there’s a good chance some gems are...
