Everyday life is full of stress that drains your batteries. So if you need a break to recharge them, the Facebook page 'Blackpool Lad' can be a good place to do so—as its admin(s) say, even for lasses!

The origins of its content are a bit murky. The page shares posts that appear to be from X (formerly known as Twitter), but once you start searching for the sources, you realize that a lot of those accounts do not exist.

However, the jokes and observations themselves still stand. They touch on toxic relationships, bad bosses, anxiety, and other common struggles we have.

Continue scrolling to check them out and don't miss the chat we had with psychotherapist Kaytee Gillis—you'll find it in between the pictures.

And sometimes bite! One of my cats will occasionally bite my arm if I stop petting him. And then he’ll bite other people if they don’t pet him “right”. I think age made him ornery even though he’s *only* 13.

Our dog would nudge your hand to keep petting he raised our cat that we rescued at 6 weeks old only weighing 1lb. And she does the same thing they will tell us when they are done

Mine likes to lay/lie on my chest and I get a paw to the face if I am not petting to his standards or I cease petting him; it's endearing.

Late at night when everyone else is in bed, I may head into the kitchen to contemplate a snack or just to stretch. If my cat stretches up on me to snag my pants and then goes back down, that's his signal that I need to head to bed also. He doesn't do it every night, or even at the same time, its just random enough to make me think he's doing it on purpose.

    There are quite a few indicators signaling that we increasingly need to rethink our (lack of) time-outs, but arguably the most alarming ones are found in the workplace. According to SHRM’s Employee Mental Health in 2024 research series, 44% of the 1,405 surveyed U.S. employees feel burned out at work, 45% feel "emotionally drained" from their work, and 51% feel "used up" at the end of the workday.

    And these things can seriously impact our well-being.

    "Some of the signs that we are burned out include physical pain, increased mental health symptoms such as depression or anxiety, feeling a lot more lethargic or tired, or decreased motivation for things that we used to look forward to, as well as feeling irritable and resentful about things we need to do such as our job/work, housework, parenting, etc.," psychotherapist, author, and educator Kaytee Gillis, who specializes in helping people recover from trauma in families and relationships, told Bored Panda.

    The SHRM data echoes previous research, including the American Psychological Association’s 2023 Work in America Survey, in which 92% of workers stated that it is very or somewhat important for them to work for an organization that values their emotional and psychological well-being. However, at the same time, 57% reported experiencing many of the negative effects of burnout that Gillis just mentioned.

Please keep in mind that there were only 2 of us in the entire aisle, she was stationary at the time, and the aisle was very wide. But walking too fast a few feet from her was apparently super bad of me to do.

    Years ago I had something along these lines happen. There were two people beside each other in the aisle (facing opposite directions) and I was behind the woman facing the same direction as me. My partner and baby were at the other end of the aisle and when he turned around to look for me I just shrugged at him, knowing I was stuck. I didn't even roll my eyes because we weren't in a hurry. Out of nowhere the woman facing opposite us snaps "It's not that big a deal, b***h." I was so surprised all I could come up with was my Miss Manners "I beg your pardon?" She in turn sneered "You heard me B***H." I swear it was Eileen Wuornos. The woman in front of me heard this, turned around and looked as shocked as I was, then moved her cart. When I caught up to my partner I was shaking. He told me Eileen had been really sweet to him, telling him how cute our baby was. That was 20 years ago and thinking about it still scares me a little. An interaction with a serial killer mimic will do that to you

So my inner demon prodded me and I walked right up, grabbed a box, and added them to my cart. Shrieks of outrage from the kid. Yes, that was probably not a nice thing to do.

    This one is definitely in the "so accurate it hurts" category! Kids are picky cuz Mom/Dad are the one(s) paying for, and therefore choosing, the food (sometimes by their own preferences, but often because it's "healthier" for the kids). Adults, especially childless adults without dietary restrictions (whether voluntary or medical), only buy what they like and/or within their budget.

    While we all go through hardship, not everyone handles it the same. Our coping mechanisms can be classified as active or avoidant.

    Active coping means that a person recognizes the source of their stress and takes steps to change the situation or the way they respond to it.

    Avoidant coping, on the other hand, occurs when a person ignores the root problem that causes them stress.

    I have never let my husband do that. The last time I let him do something like that, he went to pick up three of his prescription glasses and when he got back to his car (which was across the road from the spec shop), he had lost two of the three........He said he searched everywhere but ofcourse they where no where to be found, that week he also lost his credit card (for the umpteenth time), a set of keys that he had just got cut and his work diary......

    "Some common unhealthy coping skills include substance misuse and isolation," Gillis, author of Breaking the Cycle: the 6 Stages of Healing from Childhood Family Trauma, said.

    "However, many things can be an unhealthy coping skill if used in an unhealthy way or a way that contributes to avoidance. For example, exercise or video games can both be a fun way to de-stress, but both can also be unhealthy when used in excess."

    Gillis said, "The best way to recover [from burnout] is to get a break!"

    "I understand that isn't always feasible or realistic, but a break can also look like decreasing the workload by delegating some tasks to other people, asking for help with housework or parenting, or taking a couple of days (or more!) off when you can get an actual break."

    "Also, increase self-care, such as eating meals, drinking water, moving your body in ways that feel good, and taking care of other needs that are often neglected when we are stressed," the psychotherapist added.

    It can take time to become aware of and unlearn negative coping mechanisms. Initially, you'll need to be intentional about incorporating positive coping strategies into your daily life, and this may require considerable effort. However, over time, these responses will become more automatic. For now, let's finish the list!

    And just to be clear, it's not inherently a sign of OCD. It more likely means you were thinking about something else, so not really paying attention to the door. Like checking the time on your phone, then immediately checking it again because it didn't sink in the first time.

    Anxiety, fear, stress maybe. Could lead to other things undiagnosed or make your body sick/ill. Have you talked to different doctors, specialists, therapists about? Could be Simply having an active imagination cause your brain to overthink, analyze. If leading to death, depression, worst case scenarios def talk to a few doctors see what they suggest.

    Told my cockatoo he is a good boy because he worked really hard, broke out of his steel cage by removing the hinges of the door; went walkies, terrified the small birds a bit before he freed them and stole their toys; and on his way back he casually ate my painter's easel. Comes running when I open the bird room and hands me a piece of easel for a gift. He is a good boy.

    Way back when, 1980's, my bestie and I (64) would go to one of the big malls, walk every bit of it, stopping here and there to look, finishing up 3 hours later without buying anything more than a corn dog and a lemonade. We were kind of strapped for money in those days and the mall was air conditioned.

    I live in Belgium where everyone I know speaks impeccable English. They do sometimes get new/knew and other words like that. A local friend whose native languages are Flemish (Belgian Dutch), French, German, Italian and Spanish was shocked that it was hard to distinguish between boom (tree) and bomen (trees). Then she said that color and collar were the same sounds.

In the morning he was sleeping on the chair and as soon as I moved he was back on the couch with me. The night I heard my father had passed away it was my hamster who snuggled with me. Animals they are the best.

    that's why I make my food and, if he's hungry, he'll do the same. If I ask and he says yes, he gets some. If he's doing something and not paying attention to me cooking, nope not so much.

    You may have honest answers but the way you got to that answer is likely wrong, due to the completely assss backwards way they teach math these days.

    I've been a parent for decades. Nothing frustrated me more than when "new math" came out and I suddenly couldn't explain jackchit. I stupidly skipped the class where they explained it to the parents. "How hard can it be?" Just. So. Wrong.

Asked him to please get me a DP. He said sure. Then I see him talking and hear him say " Grammy, since you're in the kitchen now, would you mind bringing mom a DP?

    Train drivers in the UK can earn more than £80k. I read an article in the Sunday Times that said the average veterinarian (with seven years of training) earns £41k. That’s a large part of why trains are so expensive.

    Thousands of people rely on that train driver for their safety and their lives. The terrible low pay of veterinarians has nothing to do with trains or train drivers. And, comparing a top tier pay level in one field with an average in a different field is dishonest.

    There is a reason for this. Firstly there is the train driver. Now he needs to be watched by the person who trained him to ensure that they are OK at the job. And that person needs to be checked by the train the trainer person to make sure the trainer is also OK at their job. Extrapolate. Now we come to the train guard. Now he needs all the checks the driver needs but he also needs a guard to keep an eye on the guard. Extrapolate. Oh, I forgot - the driver needs a driver to drive him to the train. He needs to be trained and guarded. Extrapolate. This means that there is only 1 seat on the train for a fare paying passenger and that's why it costs so much.

    And you wake up with a crick in your neck, a cat on your feet, and another tucked behind your knees.

    I have nap blankets on the couch. Enough that you can scrunch up one to make a pillow

    The main point being that it cannot happen in your bed. In my case anyway.

    My boyfriend looks for things by standing in the middle of the room and slowly turning around in a full circle before declaring he can’t find whatever it is. Then I march over and move a pillow or a blanket and find it for him.

    For anyone who doesn't know an Irish goodbye, also known as a French exit, just means leaving without saying goodbye. Edit because I had to look it up so figured I'd save other people the time.

    Boxed up donation items 3 months ago. Transferred them to the garage yesterday where they will probably sit through winter until I come across them during spring cleaning.

    I throw my "to donate" bags in the trunk of my car. Then when I drive past a donation box I can just pull over real quick. Assuming, of course, I spot the box and remember I have clothes in my trunk.

    One day you know the difference between "your" and "you're" and the next thing you know you're correcting someone else's grammar.

    They know the difference between your and you're. They just choose to apply that wisdom w***y-nilly.

    Getting the answer isn't the problem. It's the dreaded "Show your work" that's the problem.
