We love to see people get into a tizzy over astrological memes and designations, so you can imagine our delight at coming across this Facebook post from Mela Golden's page assigning the signs of the zodiac to popular fast food restaurant chains. It's hard not to be opinionated where these restaurants are concerned: they're (usually) pretty affordable and accessible, so a huge percentage of the population has developed a preference (and sometimes hatred) for these establishments. For example, wh…

Hey, whatever parenting hack works!

While most products come in various sizes, some things are just meant to be consumed in bulk: Netflix shows, Costco's entire inventory, and Cheese Balls . I have never seen Cheese Balls in a compact container in my life. Every Cheese Ball in the world is in an absurdly large package that I cannot conceptualize being practical for anyone. How long does it take a family to eat one industrial-sized box of Cheese Balls? I can't imagine they could finish it in less than two months. Maybe that's by d…

Roll for memes

There are memes for almost any subculture. You just need to know where to look. This became really clear to me after diving into the nerdy world of birding. As a kid, my Dad and I would visit parks and marshlands, Audubon book in hand, looking for birds both rare and common. While my favorites were always colorful or endangered (Roseate Spoonbill, anyone?), I've since broadened my formerly particular affections for avian life. While I never stopped enjoying scoping out the trees and forest floo…

Memes to cure bad bouts of boredom

Everyone embarrasses themselves at some point in their lives—we're only human after all. But some cringe can never be forgiven.

I'm thankful every day that I grew up without the ability to post my bad opinions on Twitter or get caught doing something really stupid on TikTok. Instead, my embarrassment was relegated to cringey conversations with my crush (on AIM) and just being an all-around nerd at school. It…

Texting etiquette between coworkers is a weird science that nobody has truly mastered. Professionalism is an admirable goal, but act too professional, and you can come off as stiff and unlikeable to your colleagues. Generally, a good rule of thumb is to start as professional as possible and read the room, gauging the vibe of different coworkers. However, not everyone will be satisfied with your communication style, as some people are still firmly in the 1800s regarding workplace etiquette.

"It's time for you to STOP sending me this crap!!"

Sigh

In a famous story from Douglas Adams' book So Long, and Thanks for All the Fish , the protagonist Arthur recounts a time he sat down at a table to enjoy a coffee, newspaper, and packet of biscuits he'd recently purchased at a shop. To his horror, a man sitting across from him grabbed the packet of biscuits, tore it open, and started eating them. Instead of saying anything, Arthur passive-aggressively reached into the packet and took what was rightfully his, hoping the man would get the message.…
