Dogs are absolutely precious and need to be protected at all costs. Even as a relatively recent " cat person ," there's no way I can turn my back on the adorable, loyal, and sometimes smelly creatures I grew up with. The bond shared with a pet is strong, and there's something about a dog bond that can't be replicated. Their eyes, full of devotion. Their grief when you leave home. Most of all, when I think about dogs, I think about Teddy, my family's long-deceased Wheaten Terrier. Teddy was amaz…

It's unrealistic to think everyone in the world has a diverse set of interests. For much of my life I've felt like a boring person. It's not because I'm bored all the time, and not because I have zero talents. But because all I really care about (besides my loved ones) is food. Cooking it. Eating it. Looking at it. When I get together with friends, it usually involves some sort of delicious treat or food-related activity such as making pizza in a backyard or engaging in a themed cooking competi…

It's insulting enough to get paid the bare minimum for a job that demands most of your time. But a company that literally steals wages from their employees ? That's just vile. When redditor u/overworked-american asked for owed wages from their former employer , they were shocked when the head of the company not only rejected their request, but justified the denial by essentially explaining that it wouldn't be fair to all the other employees the company had ripped off in the past.

If you're studying hard for that chemistry exam and you've just about had enough, these dumb memes might offer a bit of relief while still keeping you in a sort of educational zone. It's true that science isn't always fun - especially when you're dedicating hours of your life to the field. But memes have a way of making even our least favorite classes or subjects a little more enjoyable. These memes that reference the science s may not make you smarter, but at least you'll get to laugh for once…

It's fitting

Some say that the closest thing to a real-life superhero/supervillain is Twitter user dril. He's anonymous, has a platform he usues for good, and has an iconic look. Nobody knows who he is, but we all secretly want to know who is really behind that blurry picture, sunglasses, and hilarious tweets. The same could be said for Minecraft YouTuber “Dream” who, until yesterday, had never shown his face to his 30 million subscribers. For years, Dream has been building his gaming empire behind smiley f…

There are a lot of stereotypes out there about older men. I remember a wise editor from FailBlog saying that when you reach middle age, you can be one of two types of men: a model train guy, or a WWII guy . And I, despite being a woman who is under 40, definitely fall into the latter category. While I enjoy all forms of war-related media (except for, you know, the news), there's something about WWII movies that just hits different. Even better than WWII movies? WWII miniseries. My personal favo…

Is there any teen comedy more influential than Mean Girls ? This movie came out in 2004, and we are still celebrating it to this day. Mean Girls is timeless, and it seems to understand what it's like to be a teenager far better than most movies of any era. The quotability of the movie sends it over the edge from simply iconic to full-blown legendary status. You go, Glenn Coco; Stop trying to make fetch happen; That's why her hair is so big, it's full of secrets; I'm a mouse, duh; Get in, loser,…

For the longest time I thought I was just a lazy and depressed sack of sh*t. However, after many appointments with mental health professionals, it turns out these things are just symptoms of a more significant problem: the ol' ADHD. Attention deficit disorder seems to be diagnosed more frequently of late. Though I'm sure some of the cases exist so people can procure uppers, I'm thrilled that my doctor was able to help me get a diagnosis and the medication that makes me feel like a normal person…

Everyone, and we mean everyone, deserves the luxury of simply screwing around every once in a while, In fact, we think the world has the collective right to give responsibility the finger when possible. To procrastinate and diddle daddle to one's heart's content. You know, to turn on the TV on while that boring conference call is dragging on forever and you're conveniently on mute. To ignore the too-late text from your hard-assed boss who lacks a modicum of empathy, or lie about why you can't s…

We've all been there

We're already screaming
