If you’re keeping a secret, you know how stressful it can be to a) remember you’re keeping a secret and b) worry about what might happen if it gets out. The longer you keep it, the harder it gets – you just feel like you have to tell someone, right? Some of these 16 folks...

Everyone in the world has a secret. Some of us have been keeping them since childhood while others have acquired theirs more recently, but if there’s one thing we have in common it’s that we’d rather not have to let them out of the bag, you know. Ever. These 17 people needed to get something...

I don’t know about you, but when I was growing up we didn’t know a whole lot about ADHD. It was all about little boys who were super annoying, super loud, and who couldn’t sit still – but there was medication to fix that, and so no one really thought to dig any deeper. Now...

I don’t know about you, but one of my worst nightmares is waking up to someone in my room, or someone trying to break into my house when I’m there alone with my kids, or you know…anything along those lines, really. That scenario became reality for 19-year-old Canadian Josie Bowers when she went to shower...

Now, I know that there are times in every person’s life when they wonder whether the world (or their parents or their siblings or friends) would have been better off if they hadn’t been born. Likewise, we’ve all likely reminded our parents on one occasion or another that we didn’t ask to be born, but listen…no...

I know that you’re sitting there already trying to figure it out after reading the headline, but get ready, because it’s not as easy as you might think. I mean, I love a good brain teaser and I bet you do, too, so maybe you think you’re up for the challenge. Whether you’re going to...

Personally, I’ve never used fabric softener in my laundry, not even when I had wee babies with super sensitive skin. It probably has something to do with my mother never using fabric softener, and so I always assumed that a) I didn’t need it and b) I wouldn’t know how to use it even if...

Most people who have been paying attention to the modeling and fashion industry for any amount of time realize that honestly, there is probably more that’s distasteful than not about the entire thing. What we see in ads does not reflect reality, but that doesn’t stop them from affecting the way girls and women think...

This is an interesting question (posed on Reddit), because I feel like in most cases it’s kind of the opposite – we assume things are rare and pay way too much money for them when in fact, they’re super common (like diamonds). At first, I couldn’t even come up with an answer to this question...

I think that, the majority of the time, women are fine with picking up their own sanitary products at the store. We know what we like, they’re easy for us to find and grab when we’re doing the shopping for the family or running in for a few last-minute dinner items. That said, there are...

Parents have all kinds of rules when it comes to their children, and most of the time it’s a no-brainer when it comes to respecting them – their kids, their rules, right? That said, sometimes the parents are being downright ridiculous, and as kids grow out of the baby and toddler phase, they have wishes...

If you’re someone who has ever had to live with diet restrictions – either temporary or permanent – then you know what it’s like to get weird looks or questions when you put in an order in person or over the phone. I’m someone who has, at certain times in my life, had to order...

If you’ve spent any time in a relationship, you know two things for sure – they’re not as easy as you expected them to be as a starry-eyed teenager, and you often can’t see all of the issues you’re having from the inside. For this woman, who started dating her boyfriend of three years when...

Anyone who has ever had to hunt for a job (so, pretty much everyone) can tell you that the actual process of writing a resume and finding open positions, then applying and going through the interview process, is a total slog. There are so many people out there doing the same thing, and no real...

There are so many great things about being single, but if you’re single for a long time it can start to wear on you, right? Not to mention that everyone in your life seems to have some sort of comment on the matter besides. These 13 jokes should get you laughing no matter what stage...
