Frustrated Owners Share Stories About How Hard It Is To Catch A Dog Once It Runs Away (30 Pics)

It happened to me too, but I was the one in the car. I saw a woman running in the middle of the street after her dog, crying her eyes out. I made a U-turn, I passed her and the dog, stopped the car and went out with my arms opened and a big smile on my face. The dog went straight to me. I drove the woman and her dog home. She thanked me profusely. I felt like a hero. It was a good day :)

35 Times People Uncovered Such Fake Instagrammers, It's Borderline Ridiculous

Woaw, thank you so much for your kind message. This means the world to me. You're describing the life I strive for. As a matter of fact, I'm trying to give up on social media. I started by deleting all my Facebook page content and unfriend all people I found I didn't truly care about and then, gradually, I just stopped going. I'm not ready to give up Instagram yet, but I unfollowed all the shallow people I used to admire and now it's mostly garden and zero waste stuff :) Thank you again for your kind words. I wish you a lifetime of happiness!

35 Times People Uncovered Such Fake Instagrammers, It's Borderline Ridiculous

Exactly! It makes me wonder, are they really living their lives? I'm not sure they do. It's like being in an endless play. I'm guilty of taking pictures of pretty flowers or birds with the idea of "that will look cool on my Instagram feed". I'm working on that, trying to smell the flower and watch the bird until it flies away instead of running for my phone.

35 Times People Uncovered Such Fake Instagrammers, It's Borderline Ridiculous

I used to admire this lifestyle. Beauty gurus in their big mansions, youtubers turned millionaires, "influencers" with their pretty hair and make-up always on point. And then I realized how tiresome their lives were. All the fakeness of it. I don't want to live a life where it takes me 20mn to post a photo so people I don't know and I don't care about click a button that magically makes me "worthy". The lack of self-esteem, the level of body dismorphia they suffer, the sadness they must feel every morning looking in the mirror and failing to see the true beauty in themselves. I'll pass, thanks. I left this world of consumerism and found myself a new dream: owning a piece of land to grow my own vegetable garden. It was truly a breath of fresh air.

Designer Imagines What His Favorite Movies Would Look Like If They Were Old Books (35 Pics)

Really? Why? (genuine question)

Someone Writes An Outrageous Email Saying This Woman Doesn't Know How To Pronounce Her Name And It Backfires

I wrote "Sayleen" not "Shayleen". And it's fairly intuitive to YOU because you heard that name before or it's vaguely part of your culture. But for some people it's not. Try Baptiste, Héloïse, Guénolé and God forbid, some Breton names which are a mystery even for us. I studied Japanese, English, and I'm Portuguese on my mom's side. Every language proncounced it a different way and I'm cool with it. But I see you point about not having to explain it every time you meet someone. It can be exhausting for some people. Well, I think having a fairly "exotic" name is something to be proud of.

I kindly disagree with you. Names are closely linked with a culture and you should not have to change it just so English-speaking people can save the hassle from learning how to pronounce it. The world does not revolve around them. My first name is Céline (with an accute accent on the first E). Does that mean I have to write it "Sayleen"? Nah. I'll pass.

39 People Whose Genetics Made Them Unique

This depends entirely on the severity of the malformation. In some cases it has little effect on vision, but in more severe cases it can be significantly impaired. However, the malformation can usually be treated and at least limited. Either by exercises and sometimes also by medication, but sometimes also by operations in which the downward running gap is closed or at least narrowed.

40 Funny And Cute Dog Snapchats That Will Hopefully Make Your Day

I've heard that all puppies puke during their first car ride. That's how we got our dog Maya. She was adopted by a stupid girl who thought getting a big dog in a small studio apartment was a great idea. Anyway, this idiot went to pick Maya up, Maya threw up in the car and the girl decided on the spot that she would no keep her. My parents took Maya and she now has a forever home.

That makes sense. How much does a glass of water would cost? Can you ask a restaurant to serve you a glass of water even as a passer-by, for example in extreme hot weather, if you're feeling unwell?

This is illegal in France. Every restaurant/bar/pub etc. must serve you a glass of tap water free of charge should you ask for it, even if you don't consume anything. Some do it reluctantly but they do it nonetheless.

Ungrateful Girl Throws Pencil Case Mom Bought Her In The Trash, Learns A Lesson When Mom Replaces It With A Ziploc Bag

I don't see what the pictures of her child bawling her eyes out add to the lesson we need to learn from this young woman. All I am saying is that posting pictures of your child in an environment you have no control on whatsoever, such as the Internet, is very, very dangerous. And in this case, completely unecessary. The picture of the pencil case in the trash was enough. Once again, this little girl deserved what she got from her mother. And I agree with you we can all learn from each other (and I learned a great deal from young parents on the Internet), but don't name/put pictures of your child on the Internet!

I thought about this. I too think it's a good thing to share your experience as a parent. It can be beneficial to new parents. But I think the photos are a big no no. In fact I think it's the photos that disturb me the most.

I do, for a lot of movies. I am a translator and watching a movie in French, I can't help but thinking about the translation process. But I make an exception for series like The Simpsons or South Park because I started watching them as a kid and grew accustomed with those voices :)

Ungrateful Girl Throws Pencil Case Mom Bought Her In The Trash, Learns A Lesson When Mom Replaces It With A Ziploc Bag

I 100% agree with this, and the only reason I even opened the article was to point this out. I have a whole lot of experience with my parents spreading the info about my mistakes to others, and that has some really nasty effects on a child's social skills, self-esteem, and the ability to trust others. I would also focus on teaching the girl more about gratitude instead of just "thinking I have taught her to be grateful" - and maybe there was another reason why reacted this way: perhaps something's happened at school, perhaps she needed support more than scolding. It happens more often than parents may think. And letting your child go to school with a ziploc bag instead of a normal pencil bag? It's making your child face rude comments from her schoolmates most of time. The whole thing left me feel quite down, it sucks so much that some parents don't realize this is just emotional abuse.
