People Explain How They Treat Themselves After A Stressful Day
We've all been there. Absolutely nothing went right that day, no matter how hard you tried. You flubbed your words in the big meeting, you dropped your keys underneath the car in 100 degree heat, you spilled your coffee on the first date, or nothing worked the way it was supposed to. It's stressful, especially now, to try and find ways to help alleviate that pressure from, you know, life.
People Break Down The Womens' Issues That Are Often Overlooked
Women's issues are becoming a central part of our political conversations and activism as more (but never enough) women come into power. You may have heard issues such as patriarchy, glass ceilings and wage gaps, or misogyny. But what about women's health issues?
People Break Down Which Useless Skills They Totally Excel At
I can do many things. Things that are astonishing and mean nothing. Like so many of us we all harbor skills and abilities that others wish to be experts in but... they're mostly useless. I can balance and catch ten quarters off of my elbow and then catch them when I throw my arm down. Someone call Guinness, and not the beer. I promise there is no reason to put that on a resume. But don't ignore special skills, because they are perfect to be the life of the party.
People Share The Scariest Experiences They've Ever Had At A Gas Station
Gas stations are a necessary evil. They often smell, they can take a while, you have to drop some cash, and there's no knowing who you'll encounter there. It was that last detail that a recent Reddit thread zeroed in on. Plenty of people have all sorts of alarming stories to come out of their time spent at gas stations. Nighttime stops are especially infamous. So if you have any interest in thinking twice the next time you go to fill up, read on.
Pizza Place Employees Break Down The Weirdest Pizzas They've Ever Had To Make
Who doesn't love a delicious slice of pizza? It's quite funny, you have to admit, to hear how passionate––even angry––people get over pizza toppings, particularly about pineapple on pizza. If that bothers you, then you haven't really lived, have you? You've never been, for instance, a pizza shop employee tasked with making an absurd concoction to the detriment of your sanity.
People Who Take Late Night Walks Describe The Scariest Thing They've Ever Seen
I love to wonder about in the dark of night; especially in winter. I do some of my best thinking and writing on long walks in peace. I do have a curfew about my strolls though. I'm home by midnight, unless I have to walk my dog or I'm coming in from the club. Doing walkabouts in the dead of night, like say in the wee hours, can be a gamble. I also am an avid Dateline NBC fan, so I know who is out there, hiding behind cars. So, walk with caution.
People Explain Which Movie Villains They Totally Side With
You know, the older I get, the more I understand The Wicked Witch of the West. Wouldn't you have flipped out if some random chick had killed your sister and was being egged on to do worse by the weirdo inhabitants of Oz and the so-called "Good Witch"? Perhaps the genius of this story is how easily we've been manipulated into accepting that Dorothy is a good person and not just a pawn in some feud between magical beings.
People Break Down How A Mistake They Made Actually Made Things Better
Though many may try to live life flawlessly, navigating through all the ups and downs as gracefully as possible, we still sometimes bang around like bulls in china shops. We misread important instructions and do the wrong thing for way too long. We make split decisions that, in hindsight, were absurdly ill-advised. We even think things through and botch it in the end. Sometimes, however, the consequences of those mistakes end up surprising us.
People Break Down Which Things Make Someone Instantly Likable
What makes someone likable? A smile, the way they speak, how they treat others? What is the quality you notice first? The thing that stands out the most when meeting a new person for me isn't simply if they have good qualities but how natural it seems to be for them. If they had to pause and think about it to make a big gesture out of doing something nice they probably aren't like that in their downtime.
People Divulge The Stupidest Financial Decision They've Ever Made
Finance and financial management really needs to be a part of all school curriculums. Seriously, who needs PE every single year? And what in the world is the point of a free period? Also, trigonometry... just no. Learning about how to make and properly handle money would change the outlook for everyone. Learning that it doesn't grow on trees or that one day we'll have to make our own and turn on into survival... that seems like a more dire and useful life lesson.
People Predict Which Items May Be Cheap Now But Will Skyrocket In The Future
The value of something, like art, is in the eye of the beholder. An artist can only hope the value of their work skyrockets within their lifetime, and when it happens, it's like catching lightning in a bottle. But can everyday objects have the potential to increase in value that are not necessarily limited edition, signed works of art? All you need to do is to go on eBay to find out.
Wedding Attendees Explain What Made Them Think 'This Marriage Won't Last Long'
I can't wait to get married; mostly because I love a good party. I also the love the festivities and joy, the open bar and the high drama. Oh my the things I have seen at a wedding. I can't tell you how many times a friend and I have said... "I thought crap like this only happened in the movies?" There really are some couples who you know are going to last forever and a day. And then there are those unions when you are even more sure, are going to be a disaster from start to finish.
