If you’re like me, one of your life goals is to be able to find the perfect property one day. One that’s close enough to modern conveniences, and an airport in case you need to quickly flee the country, but secluded enough that you don’t have to wear pants, listen to lawnmowers, or do that...

In an era where books (and then television shows) like The Handmaid’s Tale and other dystopian stories are freaking people out with their stark believability, maybe it’s not surprising that these studies caught my eye – and totally freaked me out. After all, who can really say what will be the consequences of our consumerism, drive-thru...

Sometimes it seems as if the whole world is on pins and needles these days when it comes to the sensitive topics of racism and xenophobia. Tensions are high wherever we go because of differing religious beliefs, the growing political divide, or the refugee crisis. This is leading some people to try their best to...

No doubt you’ve seen or heard about the devastation that Hurricane Harvey is wreaking on Houston – unprecedented amounts of rainfall that have resulted in massive flooding, and thousands of people are looking for temporary shelter as they’re forced from their homes. While some people have been slow to step up, Jim McIngvale (otherwise known...

I worked in a government office for 12 years, each one of which stole a small percentage of my soul, and also my will to live. Some days, the only thing that kept me going was a little passive-aggressive exchange with that one co-worker (you know the one) who seemed to enjoy lodging things in...

We’ve had a #HowIGotFired hashtag in the past (which was equal parts hilarious and horrifying), and now, thanks to Jimmy Fallon once again, the twitter universe is gracing us with reasons why people quit their job. These are just as funny, appealing, and appalling, and they’re full of exactly the kind of internet hilarity you...

There is no shortage of weird neighbors in this world (I mean, I’ve got at least two, and the jury’s still out on another), so it really wouldn’t be fair of me to share just 15 of the best responses to this hashtag game – there are literally dozens that are post-worthy. So, without further...

Ah, best friends. You never know where you’re going to find them, and often they’ve climbed into that “best” status before you know what’s happened (those are the best kinds of bests!). But life would be pretty dumpy without them, amirite? I’m lucky enough to have three gals I consider best friends (plus my mama)...

Seriously. If you don’t crack a smile or give me a laugh at one or more of these, well…something’s wrong with you, my friend. It’s not an insult. Just a fact. Ha! 15. Omgggggggg 14. THEY DO! 13. Don’t mess with a hungry cat. 12. This is a real life picture of me whenever there...

Which makes you awesome, right? Right. I love quirky jokes and the people who make them (and get them). There’s nothing better than a totally unexpected belly laugh, and I have to say, quite a few of these Tumblr posts earned some hearty laughs from me. Keep scrolling to check the weird-o-meter on your own...

It’s true. Between threats of nuclear war, famine, the new Taylor Swift single, and the fact that we have to wait a stupid long time for the next Wonder Woman movie, it’s hard to argue that the world isn’t going to hell in a handbasket. But, like Nero before us, we must realize that there...

Cats. The Internet. People making hilarious comments and observations about cats on the Internet. Enough said. 20. Cats are cats are cats 19. Sometimes it’s best not to ask too many questions 18. You created a problem. Now it’s yours to live with, buddy. 17. Worst trick ever 16. Either way, that is one angry...

I ran across this information recently and figured that, with everything going on in the news lately, it might be relevant to our collective interests sooner rather than later. Because, I mean, even if our world leaders aren’t going to get their shit together enough to avoid nuclear war, we still want to look good. Am...

When a sad, dirty teen with unwashed, tangled, and matted hair walked into her beauty salon, stylist Kayley Olsson didn’t make a face or turn her away. She also didn’t comply with the girl’s emotionless request to just “cut it off,” despite the fact that the girl hadn’t brushed her hair in who knew how...

Y’all, there were too many amazing answers to this Hashtag game question to do it justice in a single post. Too many hilariously apropos misheard lyrics. Also, some of them…I think are better than the actual songs. Just sayin’. I’ll leave it to you to guess which ones. 15. Is it just me, or is...
