The end of the weekend can be difficult. Especially after a holiday weekend. Our energy is usually at an all-time low (at least it is on our Sundays) and almost any form of inane entertainment will keep us enraptured enough to forget about Monday's impending doom and the anxiety of heading back to work. You can turn on the television and get sucked into some series about a serial killer, or some wartorn country, and actually feel pretty good about your current station. Especially after you've e…

2022 was a big year for goblins, and people who always feel like goblins. In fact, “goblin mode” was bestowed with the honor of being Oxford Dictionary's word of the year. According to Know Your Meme , goblin mode is “ a slang term initially used to describe a person or animal acting feral or the cowgirl sex position which later achieved more literal association with goblin-like, chaotically evil behavior.” That is probably due to the fact that the term first gained popularity in connection wit…

When cat rescuer @ellle_em was having a bad day, they turned to Twitter and made a very specific request. “Please reply to this tweet with an AITA written from the perspective of your cat and also include a photo of said cat I would appreciate this very much” tweeted @ellle_em. Boy oh boy did Twitter deliver. After @ellle_em got the ball rolling with some posts featuring a bunch of their lovely-looking rescues, other Twitter users got in on the joke and shared stories about their own mischievou…

I love going to the airport. I know I'm in the minority, but there's something so relaxing about going through security, finding my gate, getting a little snack, walking around the terminal, and finally getting on an airplane. I don't have any flying anxiety because if the plane crashes, there is nothing I can do about it. Of all the ways to die, death by flying machine is definitely in my top 3. Unfortunately, most people do not enjoy flying as much as I do, and I understand why! Airports are…

Who knew Christmas lights could be so controversial

It started as any wholesome craft video, showing off the end of the yarn piece she was making for a Christmas gift. Her big mistake, however, was thinking ‘Game of Thrones’ was the kind of show you can just having playing in the background and not pay attention to…

Merry Christmas , programmers! As I've stated previously, today is Christmas, and I'm hoping all y'all are taking some time away from your job to spend time with your family and loved ones. The last week of the year is excellent for reflection on the things that have transpired over the past 12 months. Maybe for you, this year was one where you finished many projects, leaving you very fulfilled. Perhaps you started many projects this year and have yet to finish them. That's okay too! This might…

Congratulations, readers. You've officially made it to Sunday, which means you're probably starting to feel the phenomenon known as ‘ Sunday Scaries .’ You know, that slowly creeping feeling of dread regarding the start of another excruciating workweek. While of course we appreciate the weekend (which is supposed to be a two-day respite from responsibility), it generally ends up being filled with responsibility - exactly what we're trying to avoid. This is especially true if you're over thirty…

Merry Christmas to all, and to all a good meme

Never looking at it the same way again

They're so special.

Let's be honest…during the holiday season , you can't be expected to hang out with your family all day, every day. You need to balance your time together wisely, so you don't end up extremely annoyed with each other by the end of Boxing Day. My family is not one to insist we spend every second of every day together during this time, but I know some families do just that. There are many ways to avoid going crazy if you're a member of one of those families. First of all, you can take the infamous…

Most Americans are aware of the current labor shortage plaguing the nation. While some economists and business owners are claiming that it's largely due to people not wanting to work, we think it has more to do with people not wanting to work for crap wages under crap conditions. Based on the sentiments of r/antiwork and people on Twitter, a lot of people agree. As business owners struggle to hire people for low pay and zero benefits, some of them are taking to the internet to complain, or ask…

This 94-year-old woman was trying to declutter when she started sharing her recipes with her neighbor who was helping her. When she found out her recipes were being shared online and thousands of people were recreating them, she was so happy that she gifted her neighbor ALL of the recipes.

Do you remember Rolodexes? If you don't, you're an ignorant baby who has never experienced anything…goo goo gaga. If you recall the obsolete device, you are a relic from the Paleolithic era who should get a legal pad to draft their last will and testaments pronto. For those of the baby persuasion, a Rolodex is a rotating device that allows you to easily store business cards and quickly flip through them. How quaint! How novel. Gone are the days when address books and Rolodexes contained all you…
