Bite a breeder today. Let’s hear it for the shelter pups! Good dawgzies.
How awesome! Imagine knowing you've touched someone like that. And for him to let her know -- I just have the happy feels right now.
Often, wholesomeness hits that much harder when we least expect it. It’s an unfortunate reality, that interacting with a business can be exhausting and time-consuming, when it comes to refunds, sorting out shipping issues and replacements, and any other customer service topics. So when a company makes “going above and beyond” not just the purview of a hardworking employee, but policy, people tend to notice.
Take Zappos, the American online shoe and clothing retailer. Beyond a commitment to customer convenience, like a 365-day return policy and free shipping on a number of transactions, the company rewards workers who go the extra mile for their customers. For example, they reportedly had a 10:29 hour customer service call, when a client forgot about a return request when a loved one unexpectedly passed. Zappos sent a replacement for free and some flowers, after waiting on the line.
Even the non-human world is actually full of wholesome moments if you just know where to look. The animal kingdom, for example, is chock full of things that make us go “aww,” but most people stop at kittens and puppies. But all sorts of animals do things that are both fascinating and deeply cute. Otters holding hands is a classic, but did you know that honey bees have dance-offs?
That's awesome to know, I hope they become a couple! If he had the courage to ask her then he's already on a better level! By the way, american pandas, are your schools as bad as the movies show? Is all bullying and different groups?
I went to school in the 80s/90s and I can tell you yes, it was absolutely like that then. Not sure how it is now. I was a member of the unofficial Loser's Group in every single school I went to, and was bullied for my name (Crystal) and my hair (I look like a Chia Pet.) All the girls were in cliques/groups, so I only had boys as friends, and the popular/athletic boys were all in their OWN cliques/groups, so my friends were my fellow nerds XD Some of the best AND worst times of my life, tbh. I can't imagine it's changed at all, except to have gotten worse, with the rise of social media - now kids can bully their classmates anonymously online/via text.

However, I wonder about unintended consequences - when does a nice gesture become pity? I hope for a happy ending, but I worry that this sort of thing follows around the (for want of a better word) "lesser" of the two as them being the one who received a gesture out of pity.
It’s okay to be nice to someone, or have someone be nice to you, without having any further expectations. Just Friendship is a wonderful thing.

This kind of thing is double edged. Girls who are "nice" are pressured to go with anyone who asks and it isn't fair to put that expectation on them. If she went because she wanted to, great.
I for-see him starting up some company & becoming a billionaire by age 30.
Check the body language. She’s leaning in and he has his arm around her. Something tells me that they’re already good friends.
Im guessing by their outfits circa 2000s he got his courage from the Ryan Reynolds Amy Smart Movie Just Friends 2005. Maybe these two were alrdy friendly at school had a class together or shared lunch time.
This is how a woman becomes a Queen. A young man, like this, will work hard and give a young woman, with a kind heart, a world of love and anything else that he can afford.
What a disgusting and nasty comment. Is it so hard to believe that there are kind people in the world and that she may have wanted someone genuine?

Even more committed, penguins, along with a lot of other birds, mate for life, and will even “propose” to a mate, often with a pebble. Of course, some birds really do take it to the extreme when it comes to impressing a potential mate, for example, building art displayed, fighting rivals, or even very intense forms of dance.
Squirrels and bats both have social systems to take care of orphans. Squirrels will adopt babies whose parents have died and carry them around like their own offspring. Various species of bats do the same, while the most organized version are “bat orphanages,” where groups of bats roost together and females come to feed orphaned babies. These are highly social animals with a pretty advanced solution to this problem.
This one always makes me smile. At times, I think everyone needs laughing luggage.
I hate to be that guy, but in the UK that bill would be $0. Total. Ever. And as a diabetic, all his other prescriptions would be free for life too.
There are countless other examples of things, creatures, and even people that are and act wholesome, an emotion that makes us happy and shows us that there is something good in the world. For all the chaos and negativity on the internet (and, really, everywhere,) digital communication lets us spread these ideas and images. In a sense, it promotes wholesomeness, as often selfless behavior goes unrewarded and unseen.
The human need for this sort of content is reflected in the trends we see on TikTok, Twitter, and yes, even here on Bored Panda. Wholesome, joyful images, memes, and stories are all a salve against doom-scrolling and other words we use to describe the omnipresence of negative content, fear-mongering, and rage bait. The ubiquity and common, everyday use of those words shows just how far “internet negativity” has penetrated our collective psychology.
fun fact-most dogs are allergic to chocolate, but some are not and, while they cannot eat it safely, but will not die (much of this is dependent on weight) my friends dog apparently got into the fridge and ate a WHOLE GODDAMN CHOCOLATE CAKE and was fine afterwards.
Sadly, German Shepherds with dwarfism suffer from a myriad of health issues and do not live long.
Ugh, I looked mine up and its in the middle of the ocean near Australia.. Don't think I can get anyone to play that game :D
My mum is always like "you don't have to stop" and gets annoyed if I do it. I NEED TO AND WANT TO MUM
i'm not sure if i'll get super downvoted for this, but i watch 911 and i recently heard there is a big group of buddie shippers that are mad because the show is supposedly queerbaiting. Some of their arguments consist in Eddie screaming Buck's name when Buck was struck by a lightning and them holding hands when Buck was pulling Eddie from a colapsing building. All I see is a very nice and rare type of friendship, where one is constantly there for the other, and I find very sad that some people are not used to this anymore. I remember McDanno's friendship from hawaii 5-0 and i really wish more shows had this kind of relationship again, but i'm not certain if it wouldn't get mistaken for something else and hated on.
Yeah, slightly less sweet when you know that he was physically abusive to her during their relationship.
Okay, this is such a thing with kids!! We have a photo of my brother at age 2 or 3 wearing my cousin's coat and it's really big on him like this kid. I have a photo of my kid doing the same thing with one of her father's coats. I think kids just love putting on big coats! It's adorable!!!!
Honest question, are there many female uber drivers, for the same reasons?
That is someone who definitely has too much pressure in their life!
How do you get around being one of those people who doesn't believe they deserve love, so they keep everyone at arms length, including themselves, trapping them in a catch-22 of never being able to accept love even from themself?
Kind of asking the impossible of these lads, who wouldn't fall in love with these two gorgeous talented ladies? On the other hand, the girls are doing community service.
Some of these ain't even wholesome. They're for an entirely different list and I'm disappointed
Ikr. Near the end (now that all the irrelevant ones are at the bottom of the list), I had to double check that I hadn't accidentally tapped into a different list altogether.
