I actually think that one of the more useful slogans from the past couple of decades is “see something, say something.” Too many people poke their nose where it doesn’t belong when they shouldn’t, then mind their own business when they really should be concerned, but to be fair, maybe it’s not always easy to...

I’m telling y’all, weddings turn some typically normal and caring people into absolute beasts. I don’t know if it’s the idea that the day is “all about you” or whatever, but people who would normally make concessions and try their hardest to make loved ones happy can often turn into the exact opposite. This guy...

Listen. Like everything else that people put on or in their bodies, bras really shouldn’t be anyone’s choice or business besides the person who wears them. That said, a lot of people have opinions on bra-wearing, and most of those opinions are that they should be worn in public. What does Reddit say to this...

S*x education in America is far different than it is in other parts of the world. In many ways, America’s Puritan roots remain strong, and how and when people speak to their kids about puberty and s*x varies immensely from family to family. Some parents, though, refuse to give their kids the basic facts they...

I remember the first time I went to the movies alone, feeling a little awkward about it and like everyone was watching me and wondering why no one was along. That was awhile ago, and after several years of maturity and many, many movies alone, I can honestly say two things – it’s one of...

When I was a kid (long, long ago) pretty much everyone with a house cat declawed it so there would be no worries about furniture and carpet and drapes being ruined. People loved their cats, and they had no idea there was more of a downside than leaving the poor thing defenseless if it ever...

While it’s definitely true that pregnancy is a magical and special time, it’s also just as true that it’s weird, uncomfortable, and occasionally horrifying in equal measure. These 14 women realize that it can be both at the same time, and are using humor to cope with the weirdness. Thank goodness. 14. No one can...

Anyone who has been pregnant or lived closely with a pregnant woman can tell you that, all-in-all, it’s a pretty mind blowing nine months. Your emotions and physical body are both put through the wringer, and you feel every single feeling you could possibly feel. One good way to make it through with your sanity...

It’s easy to get stuck in a rut in life, or to believe that we’re too old, too poor, too set in our ways to ever see things change. The truth is that you’re never too old (or too anything) to do something great – these 14 people’s achievements should definitely inspire you to believe...

If there’s one thing I think most people would like to leave behind when they’re gone, it’s a legacy. Whether it’s through a passion, a career, their children – we all want to believe we’ll be remembered into the future. These 13 people achieved things during their lifetimes that will definitely assure them a place...

It’s easy to get complacent in life. We like to be comfortable, we like to know what to expect every day, and honestly, I don’t think most of us think we’re capable of much more than we’ve got. These 12 people definitely shook off that complacency, though, and made history instead. 12. James Naismith got...

There’s nothing wrong with taking a pause, looking around, and enjoying where you’re at in life. That said, you’ll never be getting your own Wikipedia page listing your many achievements if you get stuck there. Take a page from these 11 people’s books – they definitely didn’t rest on their laurels, and look what they’ve...

If you’re looking for someone to look up to, someone whose life and achievements will motivate you to reach higher and run faster…that can sometimes be tough to find. We’ve got 10 people here though who were built to go the extra mile, and since they might be new to you, prepared to be amazed!...

It can be crazy to think about how much media has changed since the 1980s – which was, to be fair, forty years ago now. Yikes. Back then, we watched movies on VHS instead of streaming everything with the push of a button and sure, it wasn’t as convenient. But if you’re feeling the nostalgia...

Just when you think the internet can’t get any cooler and quirkier, artist @iamsteelman goes and gives our favorite contemporary movies and television shows perfectly vintage “updates.” Personally, I’ve never wondered what a VHS tape of last year’s Oscar winner would look like, but now I can’t stop. I bet you won’t be able to...
