Texting is one of my favorite modern inventions. Talking on the phone is the worst, first of all, and I also love having the ability to respond when I have time or when I’m ready and not immediately. And sure, sometimes I forget I ever received it, but that’s life in the modern world, bub....

There are so many text fails in the world, and it makes me sad sometimes that people only take the time to share a fraction of them online. They’re objectively hilarious, and almost all of them make me at least snort. These 10 go above and beyond, though, because they really tickled my funny bone – so...

I’ve seen it said that one of the worst things the internet did was to give every idiot in the world a megaphone, and honestly…some days that can definitely seem true. There are dumb questions flying around every single day, even though we were told as kids there was no such thing. Let’s read through...

There are so many people in the world, and let’s be honest – intelligence isn’t a strength for all of us. That said, those of us who feel like we have things to learn are usually thoughtful about what questions they ask, just so they don’t ask something they should be able to find the...

Making yourself go to work somewhere you cannot stand, every single day, has a way of wearing on a person. You might see the effects physically, mentally, emotionally, or all three, but there’s almost no chance that you’ll feel happy and satisfied after spending your days and nights in a place you hate. These 13...

No matter how unhappy you are at work, making the decision to move on can be scary. That goes double if you don’t have something else lined up, you’re worried that leaving your current job will look bad on your resume, or jobs are lean in your industry and area. That said, sometimes we reach...

Iceland has become a popular tourist destination recently, and for good reason – the colors, the landscapes, the rugged countryside, and so much more means you’ll never run out of things to see. If you haven’t had your chance yet, these 16 pictures might convince you to go, and if you’ve been, they might just...

If you’re like me, there’s nowhere in the world you don’t want to see – or at least, that you wouldn’t like to see if money and war and crime wasn’t an issue. Lately it seems as if Iceland has become a popular destination for travelers from the States, and when you see pictures of the...

Most of us log into our online banking at least once a day, just to check on things, to pay bills, to make sure a deposit arrived, what have you. Now imagine it’s first thing in the morning, you’ve got your cup of coffee but your eyes are still a little bleary, and you see...

I can’t believe that we’re still having version of this conversation – the one where parents somehow think it’s the job of their kid’s favorite celebrity to somehow keep other people’s children in mind while making career and life decisions for themselves. That goes double when the artist in question, like Lil Nas X, never...

I know that cats run the internet and I’m not saying that dogs are going to dethrone them anytime soon, but there are dogs who are giving cats a run for their money. Whether they’re being adorable, heroic, totally sweet and supportive, or all three at the same time, dogs do have their moments online. This...

Good neighbors can be hard to find, and that’s why I think most of us are content with both being and having average, mediocre neighbors that aren’t completely insane. I mean, you take a chance when you let someone beyond that shared property line, you know? Here are 11 neighbors that are why the rest...

It seems a universal truth that whoever claims they don’t want a pet becomes the pet’s favorite person in the home, and vice versa. My partner definitely did not want the puppy we got, who I now find spooning him in his sleep on a regular basis. There’s no way to fight a puppy, y’all....

Relationships are tough, and while you’re navigating new ones, looking for solid footing in every new scenario, they can seem as if they could take a turn at any moment. This couple had been together for 8 months when they’d begun to introduce each other to the important people in their lives – his best...

There’s no law of the land that requires employees to give two week’s notice before leaving a job, but social convention means that most people do, if possible. It gives employers a head’s up that they’ll need to fill a position, and by being “polite” about leaving, the employee feels as if they left on...
