It’s almost that time of year again – the wonderful time when you get to send your kids away to camp for a week. Or, alternatively, the exhausting time of year when you get to accompany your kid to camp, and also look after a cabin full of other people’s kids in the process. If...

In a world where borders are frequently discussed and border walls are being proposed, the reminder of Europe’s Schengen Agreement, which opened all of the internal borders of the EU to travelers, workers, and migrants, feels particularly poignant. At least, that’s how Italian/French citizen Valerio Vincenzo feels after photographing them. He wandered Europe for more...

According to Bonnie Kane, who owns the Royal Pet Beauty Shop, they all do it. “Once they feel the water start hitting them, they generally start shaking, and the colder the water the more they shake. Some of them shake so uniquely. It’s pretty funny.” According to science, a dog’s shake is more effective than...

Dogs, man. How can you not love them? I seriously don’t trust anyone who claims not to be a dog person. You cannot possibly have a heart if those words come out of your mouth. And these dogs? They take it to the next level. It’s amazing that I haven’t raided the nearest animal shelter tbh. 20....

If you have friends who don’t love puns, well…I’m sure they have some good qualities. They’d better. Because puns are awesome, obviously. They’re even better when it takes you a minute to get it and then – lightbulb! Basically, enjoy this list. And all of the “aha” moments just ahead. 24. Life is rough, man....

Tumblr is known for its sarcasm and quick wit (and its ability with Photoshop), though sometimes the bullying, nudity, and other crap that’s rampant on the Internet can bring it down a level. Not today, though. Not with these 12 gems that showcase how beautiful it is when Tumblr gets it right. Let’s take a...

It’s possible that you may not get all of these (a good 25% of the time I am not cool enough to understand jokes on Tumblr), but for the ones that hit home, there’s nothing to do but tip your hat (or perhaps snort). Tumblr is, far and away, the social media platform best suited...

Even if you say you don’t like Disney…you probably still like Disney. Or, at the very least, you’ve seen enough Disney to get the jokes posted below – which, if I do say so myself, are pretty great. Tumblr is, of course, usually hilarious, but these 15 people have really outdone themselves. 15. So much...

After Annie Edison Taylor’s marriage ended with her husband dead in the Civil War and her infant child taken by illness, she spent years wandered North America, presumably looking for happiness. She must not have found it in teaching music and dance because when she returned to Michigan in 1901, Annie got an idea in her...

Everyone’s family is a little bit weird, but hey – they’re our people, so we embrace their quirks. In fact, I think a family without a little strangeness would just be downright boring (and, if my family is any indication, also quiet). If you’re wondering whether your family ranks up there with the craziest of...

If Moms have cornered the market on funny texts, Dads definitely win in the hilarious (and sometimes really, really bad) advice category. If you don’t believe me, well…trust Jimmy Fallon? Or at least trust these 15 tweeters who won (and possibly lost) the #Dadvice hashtag. 15. I hope this dad is ready to bail you...

Some people claim to hate puns, or groan when a particularly awful (good?) one makes an appearance at a family gathering, but does anyone really hate them? I mean, how can you not enjoy a clever play on words now and then? Who doesn’t love to snort at the unexpected genius? So, without further ado,...

We’ve shared the #WeddingFail tag with you, and now it’s time to throw it back a little further with #PromFail. It’s been…a while since I was in high school, but even so, the emotional upheaval, insecurity, social anxiety, etc. etc. etc. will never be forgotten. That’s why I’m giving you a head’s up with this post...

Honestly, I love looking at regular wedding pictures. But these? Slayed me. Not only are they gorgeous, with all of the expected frills and flowers and a glowing bride, but add these thrilled and gleeful students, and well…you’ll see. Kentucky teacher (and bride!) Kinsey French is enjoying her first year teaching at Christian Academy Rock Creek....

Maybe you’ve never noticed this, (or maybe you’ve never been pulled over for speeding or another moving violation – if so, hats off to you) but if you have, you’ve likely wondered why the officer taps on your tail light on his way to chat you up at the driver’s side window. It’s not to...
