In May 2015, Rich East decided to sell everything he owned and leave Hobart, Tasmania to travel around Australia. However, there was one thing he wasn’t willing to part with for any amount of time — his cat, Willow. He decided that a camper van and his best friend went together like peas and carrots,...

The dreaded Man Flu season is upon us, y’all, and the story below proves that none among us are safe. It’s not that men actually have it worse when it comes to the severity of flu-like illnesses that attack in the winter months, but they certainly think they do, and nothing you can say will be able to...

We all want to believe we can change for the better, but it’s often hard to make it a reality. It’s also hard to see the forest of what our life could be like when there are all these trees standing in our way. Sometimes, all you can do is trust the end result will...

If you’re like some people in my family, you don’t need any help getting up for turkey, stuffing, family, and football – but in the world of movies, there’s really no arguing that Thanksgiving kind of gets the shaft. I mean, Halloween gets all of the horror and Christmas gets all of the schmaltzy wonder,...

For literally centuries, ballet shoes have been made in shades that complement the skin colors of white dancers only, and even though that’s mostly because the majority of dancers have historically been white, it’s now long past time that other shades were offered. African American dancer Cira Robinson recently told the New York Times that...

As a child of the 80s and 90s, I think I can safely say that I never believed any of our fashion trends were going to be popular forever…and I’m sure glad my mother’s bright idea of perming only my bangs lasted a few short years. That said, these 13+ people had some different ideas...

700,000 people in the United States have been put through conversion therapy – programs designed to change a person’s sexual orientation. Even though family members and friends often believe they are doing the best thing for their homosexual loved one, the truth is that these programs amount to nothing more than psychological (and sometimes physical)...

Dogs are the literal best, you guys, and humans totally do not deserve them. They love us anyway, and those of us on the receiving end of that affection know that our lives would not be nearly as rich, full, and – sure – slobber-filled, without them. The 8 facts below just confirm what dog...

It’s not exactly a secret that dating, relationships, and marriage have changed quite a bit in the last half a century – the advent of the internet and dating apps alone have made sure of that – but running through this 1958 list of ways to find a husband really sets it all out in...

We all have those favorite movie lines that we try to work into our day-to-day conversations in hopes it’ll make someone smile. I have a few: “What’d you do?” from Tommy Boy, “Ugh, just don’t breathe on me okay?” from The Cutting Edge, and pretty much every line from Seinfeld seems to make it into my...

There’s not much cause for laughter surrounding the dentist. I mean, between the drills, the holding your mouth open while trying to answer inane questions, the motivational posters on the ceiling, and you know, basically everything ELSE, I can’t say I crack a single smile until I’m finished and on my way home. And if...

Some pictures are just funny, no matter your mood or whether or not they even really make much sense. These 20 pictures definitely fall into that category, and I’m totally saving them for the next time I need a pick-me-up – or, you know, the next time I accidentally leave the news on for too...

Regardless of how you feel about the inherent anti-feminist leanings of men who imply that they can only sympathize with gender issues because they have a wife, mother, or daughter, the facts remain that men who do have little girls – especially as first-borns – tend to vote for gender equality, while other men may...

Regrets are like opinions — if you’re over a certain age, you’ve definitely stored up your fair share. Even though they don’t help you or anyone else, sometimes it’s difficult to completely dismiss them. If you’re having one of those mopey days when you’re thinking hard about your regrets, take a gander at these 15...

There’s no arguing that dads do some pretty hilarious things on the regular. They often manage to hit that sweet spot between puns, actual humor, and a lack of any sense of shame that somehow wins everyone over. I mean, that’s practically the definition of a classic dad joke. And if there were an award...
