Hopping onto social media used to be a light, fun activity full of selfies, harmless memes and confused posts from grandparents. Nowadays, however, even a quick scroll through your newsfeed can be heavy. Articles about atrocities happening around the world, heated political debates and online protests seem impossible to avoid. And while it's important to be socially aware, sometimes we just need a break from it all.
If you’re looking for some lighthearted comedy that will bring a bit of sunshine to your day, don’t worry, pandas. You’re in a safe space! Below, we’ve gathered some of the most hilarious posts women have recently shared on X. So enjoy scrolling through these silly observations, and keep reading to find a chat with Lynne Parker, Founder and Chief Executive of Funny Women!

I've had a middle part, bangs and straight hair since the 70s, with a few random perms in the 80s and 90s lol
Back in the 80s, my mom used to give me home perms. I had the habit of cutting my own hair (badly), so she'd generally start the process with a glass of tequila in one hand and a pair of scissors in the other. It was stressful for both of us.
Load More Replies...This is why I tend to give my hair what it wants...no sense in both of us being unhappy. If I need a iron or a ton of products the cut is wrong
My hair frequently makes executive decisions that put my entire company image at risk. For instance, today it decided to advertise as many hair demographics as it could by becoming straight, curly, wavy, thick and thin...all at the same time.
Wait.. hair parts go in and out of style? When did this start?! Why wasn't I informed?! I'm always the last to know stuff!
You're out there wearing a dress made of curtains and kissing a big jerk, you have bigger fish to fry Scarlett!
Load More Replies...My husband has had the same hairstyle since he was ~16. That was 52 years ago.
Slightly shaggy (college) to high and tight (army), always parted on the left.
Load More Replies...A friend spent 120 minutes trying to lock down one of my former curls She had instriments, spray and lackers. Nothing
Yup, very curly hair, I used to hate it, but now I just go with it..
Load More Replies...I have a cowlick (not sure what other countries would call it) and my hair parts there regardless of anything I choose to do with the rest of it. It can also create its own "fountain" of hair, which sticks straight up.
Some hairdressers would ask me where I part my hair, and then try to tell me I should "train" my hair to part in the center or other side. As if I'm a hair trainer.
Or, "snake syndrome" as it's called in my house.
Load More Replies...If someone in Alabama gives you directions, they're going to include a brown cow standing in a field, and a building that was taken out by a tornado 30 years ago.
Yes. But the churches they include in the path description will mostly still be there.
Load More Replies...I've always liked saying 'if you see X you've gone too far' with my favourite being when I lived on the last turn off a dead-end street so 'If you start driving through a field, you've gone too far'.
Yes I can. In fact I zoned out around 4 times while you were giving me directions
Tea Party Raves are a thing. My Generation dance parties are a thing, £5 standing £10 seated.. Over 50s nights that start earlier and finish earlier are a thing. There’s Sunday afternoon raves. Also, if you build it they will come, find a club that’s not in use on a Saturday afternoon, set up a club afternoon, invite everyone, no dress code, tea and coffee available, build your new empire.
Really?! That sounds dashed civilised *starts searching Herefordshire*
Load More Replies...The hilarious posts you’ll find on this list have all been pulled from X, but we wanted to find out more about the world of comedy, particularly for women. So we reached out to Lynne Parker, Founder and Chief Executive of Funny Women. Funny Women is the UK’s leading female comedy community and is dedicated to helping women perform, write and dive into the world of humor.
Lynne was kind enough to have a chat with Bored Panda and discuss the difference between comedy for stage and the internet. “Playing to a live audience standing on a stage in a venue is for most people the ultimate experience, as it's where you get instant feedback, whether that's laughter or silence,” she shared.
Some years back, i was gettingto know my work colleagues. One young woman said 'you should know; i prefer girls. Does that bother you?'. 'No', i said, 'i prefer girls, too. Does that bother you?'.
My boyfriend is also a lesbian. He tells everyone this. My 80-year-old mother recently asked me....'Since I'm in love with and sleeping with a confirmed lesbian, does that make me a lesbian? ' .... I didn't know how to answer lol🤔
Not bad, but not nearly as cool as the woman who'd show up wearing a black veil to the back of your burial
Load More Replies...I've made an arrangement with my sister to have an actress friend of hers show up at my funeral as I'm lowered into the ground, stand at a distance, and occasionally dab at a tear. No interaction with anyone, and quietly leave with no explanation. :)
My SIL works for a funeral home. I am a very muscular, imposing, tall woman. I have offered my services to stand ten feet away from the funeral in black dress, black sunglasses and large black hat, say nothing and leave after immediately the service. For an additional feel, I'll leave a black rose on the deceased headstone every month for a year. So far, no takers.
Load More Replies...For twenty dollars I’ll also mumble incoherently to myself & occasionally giggle.
I saw a post once where someone said you could hire them to go to your funeral, dressed in black, standing way back, and cry a lot. Then people will assume you had a more interesting life than you did. If I weren't married, I would totally do that.
Where a dark Victorian gown, slip in and out of rooms now and then. Stare off out a window.
my friends and family have done this..... I'm albino, I dress mostly in black and gray, and I'm 7'4 {For medical reasons, I didn't stop growing, I hate that I have to explain my height in every online convis} but told them if they have friends over, they can ignore me and ill just chat like i know everyone, and just not say my name, to mess with them, iv done it like 20 times now with family members, sadly now everyone knows me, so i do it in stores ill ask someone for help then my sister will and when they sai they are helping me my sister will be like "helping who? and look around" it is just great~
There's a species of beetle around here that gathers in huge numbers every autumn for a beetle orgy. This year one somehow found its way into my bathroom and I'm like "if you've come here looking for love you're majorly out of luck, pal".
Real like u have a whole world yet you choose my house. Like I have this stupid wasp that just repeatedly bumps into the glass on the door of my balcony and it's been there for days like buddy get a life
On the other hand, Lynne says creating comedy for the internet is about second-guessing what your followers will relate to. “And while feedback can also be instant, you can't see the whites of their eyes!” she noted.
Plus, it's important to know that the internet isn't always a welcoming place. “Social media can be a hostile competitive environment, and you're only as good as your last post,” Lynne added. “Judgment in both cases can be swift and brutal, and nowhere is it more instantaneous than in comedy.”
You peasant. I just stab in my finger, nail first, into my open eye. The leaking corneal fluid is generally good enough to wash out whatever is in it in the first place
Load More Replies...It's ironic that eyelashes are supposed to keep stuff out of your eyes but the only thing I ever get in my eye is an eyelash.
That is the first thing done after getting a really close up mirror to actually see that eye at my age! Of course then you see every freaking pore on your forehead, cheeks and face so after you take care of that eye thing you start looking up close at all those other things and… wrinkles!!
Me: (rubbing itch in eye) There's something in my eye Dad: Well duh, your finger
That’s the hard bit. If you mention that up front, nobody is gonna do it
Yeah, once you get in shape you have to stay in shape. WTF is that about??
I can't, to win I would have to play. And I'm a combination of too introverted to talk to someone, and worried that I'll say something wrong and get committed...
Load More Replies...Finally got mine to swear... don't think I have the proper therapy goals
But have you ended up giving therapy to your therapist?
Holy run on sentence batman. (don't get me started on capitalization...)
i had this kind of relationship with my therapist of 15+ years until we fell out of touch during lockdown! i'd told her stuff even my mom doesn't know, and we related strongly to each other for our chronic pain and fatigue and morbid sense of humor.
I made my therapist laugh so hard he had to excuse himself to go pee. I felt invincible that day.
Creating comedy for the stage and for the internet often go hand in hand, the expert says. “I coach performers and develop new talent, so my best advice is to work with what comes naturally to you in terms of material both live and online,” Lynne told Bored Panda. “Good content will work in both environments, and you can build an audience with your online persona so that when you tour, ticket sales are guaranteed.”
Perfectly acceptable, I see nothing wrong with this. Fish are interesting
you guys get entertainment? I have to count the the dots in the ceiling to manage my panic
I get intubated and completely sedated. Last time they stuck me over 15 times to get an IV. Today though I got to come home from a 3 day stay so yay me! 😁
Load More Replies...I'm afraid of tight space and every time I go in there, I sing to myself but the technician knows I'm afraid and he keeps bothering me by asking how I'm feeling. Eye roll. If he'd stop asking, I would be in my little world. (edit: changed s for d)
I just close my eyes. They set it up with mirrors so I could see my bf but I couldn't look because it was close to my face
Load More Replies...In my MRI they gave me headphones to listen to music so I didn't freak out with the noise the machine makes. They asked me what kind of music I wanted to listen to. "Rock music please". After it was over they asked if the sound bothered me, I said yes I think I will be scarred for life, it was terrible being stuck in that machine, unable to move and being forced to listen to Fleetwood Mac. That is not rock music!
Once invited a girl back to my place when I was at college and she genuinely thought I’d been burgled.
"Omygod! Someone's been rifling through your drawers!" "Not yet, but I'm hopeful."
Load More Replies...Many years ago the newspaper account of a murder in our town included that the police were not sure if the house had been ransacked or was just messy. I was so mortified I cleaned my apartment immediately .
My husband tells me he and his college roommates RAKED their floor. RAKED. 🤢
I told my son one time to please shut his door to his room, the cat went in there and i couldn’t find her until night time
Mine too! Since covid began and the maid service ended, i am i able to do not much! Hubby works from home and does so much already. So i do what I can and now have begun the process to “clean up a bit” for the maid service to come again! I do not want them running away in fear!!
My sister broke up with her boyfriend (who is now her husband) because his house was so filthy that she literally became nauseous. He loved her enough to change (a little).
all the crime shows i've seen, even sherlock holmes himself would have issues finding evidence in my house, there's just so much c**p everywhere and everything's dirty
Interesting rocks found on walks that aren't interesting enough to come in the house.
Load More Replies...It is, but you're supposed to clean it out every time you buy gas. And no gross garbage, only clean garbage.
Candy wrapper, yes, hamburger wrapper with smears of ketchup, no.
Load More Replies...In my car it'sfor screwdrivers, pliers, old pairs of specs, receipts from supermarkets and hardware shops, pens (some of which work), odd screws and nuts, chocolate bar wrappers, unopened towelette sachets, odd bits of wire, etc. etc., and of course, etc.
YES! BUT we have small little trash cans with liners in the doors. Perfect for straw wrappers, gum and tissues. Ya, no smelly , messy hamburger wrappers
Does anyone actually keep gloves in the glove compartment? I don't recall ever doing it or seeing it in other cars.
Load More Replies...I use the drivers door pocket for trash in my car and empty it every time I get gas. Passengers do not get to use them for trash though!
We were also curious if it’s important for stage comedians to post content online nowadays. “A strong online presence will help to market your live performances and shows,” Lynne says. “Take Mammy Banter, who won our Funny Women Content Creator Award in 2023. She had never performed live stand-up, but with 3.5million followers on social media like Instagram and TikTok, she has a ready made audience and sold out her first ever gig and her latest tour!”
Honestly that might work. Sometimes they just want to know you know about it too.
True. Thats why I ask mine, "Whatcha got, Sid?" He replies with a different bark if it's a neighbor, stranger or worse- a delivery person. I can tell by his reply what's happening and I let him know he's a good boi!
Load More Replies...When my dogs are barking or cats are meowing at me I tell them all requests need to be submitted in writing!!!
I will try that on my youngest who is often meowing without any difference so I can't tell whatever it is he wants me to do.
Load More Replies...My dog is going deaf. Lately he’s been waking up and barking loudly. Bringing his dreams into reality
We just switched to the kindergardener command the "fox of silence".. works good so far
The room is $39. Being allowed to use it is another $315.
Load More Replies...My dude does accounts for a not so well known hotel booking business. They don't play that nonsense, and I f*****g love that he's broke for the cause of integrity.
The one I loved was getting one of those special rates, but then getting ALL SORTS of other charges tacked on. Best was the parking space for $75. PER DAY. I am handicapped, with placard, and the handicapped spots were usually taken by people without placards or license plates for handicapped parking. I told the desk that if I were going to be paying $75 per day for a parking space, there would not be anyone, particularly those spaces. In fact, the spot would be marked, in big neon letters if necessary, "Reserved for Miladyblue. All others will be towed." Desk staff thought I was joking.
That is reasonsable for sure. Or they can valet your car! For 75 tho they can wash detail it bc my goodness thats a rip off.
Load More Replies...Hotels in New York have fees which are subject to city sales tax.
The casinos around here have "resort fees" for the wifi and the pool.. it's almost as much as night as the rooms are off season, it's ridiculous..
Some hotels in New York have resort fees and there isn't even a pool!
Load More Replies...I've found that booking directly usually wins. And I'm a deal hunter. I will search coupons for 20 minutes to get a discount
Anyone who doesn't like children just hasn't had them cooked right. And microwaved isn't right
The comedy expert also shared some advice for women who want to dip their toes into the comedy scene. “Massive plug here, but at Funny Women, we run brilliant online Comedy Crash Courses,” Lynne shared. If you’re interested, you can find the details for the next one from June 24th to 28th right here!
My mate Freddie avoided all the supermarket tantrums from day one by giving his 2+ daughter the shopping list and a pencil so she could cross off each item as it was put in the trolley. She soon caught on and was recognizing words after just a few trips.
I've taken my kids to a couple different kid museums that had a setup like that. Fake food, of course. It was like a mini grocery store: little carts, small shelves of fake products, and even a checkout. So kids could either pretend to shop or pretend to be a cashier.
People bring kids and dogs I bring Hobbs the 3-legged house goat. Manager had the nerve to ask if he was trained after I said I was his emotional support human so I left him in the cart and went around the corner and Hobbs started mehing at full volume and then lept out of the cart and came running to find me. Manager turned red and left. All the patrons were not happy with big bad Manager making cute 3-legged goat cry and jump out of cart. Sometimes I bring miss River my other 3-legged goat just to mess with people (Hobbs is black with white spots, polled, wether, brown eyes and River is white with black spots, horns and blue eyes). They remember 3-legged goats but not the human
Benny Boy must be about the most intolerant person alive. If I had to come up with 50 types of businesses where kids would a problem, grocery stores wouldn't be on it. And I'd wonder why someone wanted that list.
I'll just say this first, I have 25 nieces/nephews and I have over a dozen great nieces/nephews, 5 of those I either helped or outright raised due to unfortunate circumstances, so I'm not some childless person that doesn't know what the f**k I'm talking about since I didn't give birth to them. With that being said as someone that's been a worker and customer I would LOVE to have certain hours on designated days of the week where it would be childfree shopping. It could be set up for the elderly, disabled, people with sensory issues, they could turn down that damn music and dim those brighter then the sun fluorescent lights, so it wouldn't be just because some people "hate" children.
Load More Replies...My Sobeys had them at some point but the parents were awful so they got rid of them. Parents would let the kids run around instead of teaching them. Or just bang on other people.
Load More Replies..."ask a fellow toddler"... And how many toddlers can read, speak and accurately point at pictures and label them? 🤔
honestly do this with kids and teens and even adults who need a refresher.
Intrusive thoughts are f*****g f*****s. One night I'm trying to get to sleep, my darling pupper is cuddled up with me, when my brain decided to remind me how long we've had her now, and what's coming, which made me sob and sniffle like a baby. Well, that only annoyed my girl, making her move away from me, so we were no longer touching, which made me cry harder, until she did these funny little kicks she does with her feet to get more comfortable - that made me laugh. I could finally fall asleep after that.
Those are the worst days of them all. Is it a surprise - need I say more? Is it to be expected - 'need I say more? Why don't they last about as long as ... I do? A 60 yo cat, but like they're with 20. 40 more years of collecting weird habits and become picky about everything - yay!
my brain: what if your ex boyfriend died me: wha- my brain: would you go to the funeral? Would you?
My SO has pure O OCD, this is a great example of something he'd get stuck on for an hour. *Stuck- cannot do anything, move or talk, until intrusive thought is complete.
Lynne noted that they also cover the building blocks of creating comedy for both live performance and online content at Funny Women. “If you prefer to work with us in person, I'm running my Stand Up to Stand Out Summer School on Saturday 17th August in London. In both events, the principals are the same, where we help you to structure your comedy and develop material. You find out what works by experimenting with us in a safe place.”
I'm over that phase. It's to painful at the stage of life I'm in. I'm doing a back brace and occasional knee brace. Wrist brace when I over do the Granny crafts. No body shaper for me. As long as I can keep the people with the body bags away from me for as long as possible, I'm good 👍.
THIS and no underwire bras. I DONT CARE that I am a 36G. I am done. (found some good ones, that helps)
Load More Replies...Gotta love the "no-rolling" lie, because that spandex when from over my belly to around my hips in one sitting.
They are back, though, and big sellers, too. We get them every so often at our thrift store. They're sold quickly.
Load More Replies...Shower and bed. Anytime of the day. Absolute heaven
Load More Replies...Tbh I love Wednesday! It's the day I can volunteer at my library and also hangout with my only friend.
Mine was "Friday". The weekend is just there, you can almost taste it, but you have to get thru this s#it first...
I did that! I made it out of the hospital! Alive even🤗
Load More Replies...Will tomorrow's challenge be called Thursday or is that just 'recovery time'?
at the very very goddamn least, lunch should be a full hour. don't pay me, let me actually eat in peace..
Load More Replies...Just assume I will be in a food coma in the second half of an all day meeting. They shouldn't put those giant cookies in my boxes lunch, I have no self control and always think I will just eat half, but I eat it all and spike my blood sugar. Best conference ever was where they brought out dessert and coffee at 3pm instead giving us dessert with lunch.
Dessert & coffee at 3pm would be brilliant. The problem is I don't go to work, so I'll have to organise it myself.
Load More Replies...And there should be annual reviews where the employee interviews their manager about why they value said employee, what their plans are to upskill and focus said employee's unique skills, how the company is planning to grow so that they can ensure healthy increases and incentives!
I've fantasized just hopping on a bus and going off into wherever the bus takes me, just because I don't want to go back.
Woking from home means after lunch nap before starting again. And it is mandatory not optional!
With all sincerity, I believe WORK should be optional. We are living in a society of peak technical and machine automation, we literally do not need everyone to "be productive members of society" in order to provide for everyone. There have been studies that, after a period of getting to, you know, lounge around and be happy, MOST people will choose to work anyway. So the government pays a "Universal Basic Income" or UBI which is just enough for food & basic shelter. If you choose to work part time, you can spend your extra income on fancier dinners, more entertainment options, a bigger house, or whatever. Lots of people would still work full time so they can splurge on grand vacations or send their kids to private school or feed their warhammer hobby. We may need to increases taxes on the uber-rich. Those people who work 95% of their waking time so they can feel superior to the rest of us, they should get diminishing returns on that and that funds the UBI. They'll still do it.
Finally, Lynne shared some wise words for anyone in the virtual comedy scene. “Social media and online content is so powerful, and it can make or break you. Be prepared for opinions, good and bad, and remember that they aren't personal because they don't really know you,” she told Bored Panda.
“Having an alter ego or 'character' can protect you, but sooner or later you've got to get on that stage in-person and meet your fans face to face. That's where the magic of comedy really happens,” Lynne says.
Naha you’re doing it wrong! You’re not allowed to start eating UNTIL you’ve found something to watch!
Load More Replies...Dinner is when the stomach is hungry. That's one thing I LOVE about not having a family with a time-strict, super structured spouse.
That's the only way to hold a conversation, imo. Otherwise, I tune out. Some people may think it's rude but if I'm not interrupting with questions, I'm not actively listening.
You are my kind of ppl! And as it happens, ppl aren’t really my kind of ppl. But here you are and i like it.
Load More Replies...So basically every conversation between two people who both have ADHD
Anyone else have to activity not talk at work to avoid constantly interrupting everyone like you do in the rest of your life?
i read "yappers" and instantly this was written by a dog about others dogs yapping at each other
Sounds like every conversation with my daughters. That’s how you find out what’s going on in their lives
Oh my gosh!! that's me !! I'm a yapper... thanks so much for defining what it is I am... unfortunately when I do that in an encounter with an introvert, I burn them out
list is titled “tweets by women” and clear as day it says they go by ‘they/them’… ok💀
I let my dog have a finger-dip of t(e foamy head from my beer. But no more, as she’s only five years old.
Our dog Scruffy, who died of old age, (RIP Scruffpot, you are missed!) used to love having a saucer with a little of my husband’s beer poured into it. My husband isn’t a big drinker, and only has a beer once in a while, so Scruffy only had some as a once in a while treat. But his taste in beer was specific. It had to be beer from the bottle, not can, that my husband, and no one else, had just opened to drink. He preferred Heineken and Beck’s, and did not like Corona at all. Funny little dog, but we loved him to bits and tried to give him a happy life, considering we rescued him in bad shape right off the street.

Same with me on my bus silently listening to the kids behind me prank calling random numbers
Conversations in restaurants. If y'all don't want everyone to know your business, speak more quietly!
Load More Replies...I was on the train yesterday and a girl was holding flashcards to study anatomy, i didn't realize i was staring at them until she began staring at me. I am sorry random girl, my autistic brain thinks anatomy is interesting and completely forgot about social manners.
I've nearly sprained an eye trying to get a side-glimpse of someone's phone convo. Still worth it.
Why wait for texts? Just listen to those yelling into their phone, sum up all the personal info they are yelling, then give them the sheet or their life facts they volunteer to everyone around... Watch the face....😈
Sitting there quietly in the doctors waiting room .. waiting. And then. More people come in and have a perfectly fascinating conversation which you can hear, and you so badly want to make a comment too, but they might just stop talking and you have to bite your tongue…. Except , I can’t! So I. chime in and join the conversation and they are so much fun and then the nurse calls you back C**p. Just when it was getting good!!
I pick what I’m eating a week before and then have to pretend to look through the menu.
I always do this! My husband never remembers his reading glasses, and his dyslexia makes it hard for him to read the menu quickly. So I order for both of us. BUT he never lets me actually read it in peace and quiet and jabbers away at me while I try to read it and decide what to order while also trying to have a conversation all at the same time and I only have 30 seconds until the waitress returns. So stressful.
Load More Replies...I'm the opposite. I don't make plans. If I want to go to a restaurant and have to wait to be seated, then that's cool. I know people who need to make reservations way ahead of time or they'll lose their minds worrying about not being able to get a table at all, and their whole day is ruined.
Is this some form of control freak behaviour? Where's your sense of spontaneity?
Oh I hate that. I said 9am,l that means 8.45 and I will stress if your later than that. Give me a time, a place and where we are going or I'm going to refuse to leave the house
Me, to m'lad: 'What's your level of spontaneity today?' Him: *lengthy, middle-distance stare of uncertainty in freeze mode of silence.* Me: 'Right. Okay. Here's the plan, which I'm making up right now, but I'll say it with confidence like it's well thought out...' Him: *visibly relaxes.* 'All right!'
Yours is way better!! Of course now I have the Oompa Loompa songs running through my mind!
I'm old, I thought oomf is something you have if you're stylish or sexy.
Load More Replies...i thought it was a sound for like out of breath or being hit like oof.....
Me too. It's the only way I've ever heard it used
Load More Replies...Even though I know the actual meaning my first reaction to 'smh' is still always 'smell my hand'.
I was listening to bad feeling for half of the day so now I'm just staring into space muttering "oompah loompah doopety doo ive got a bad feeling about you" over and over again like a lunatic
And here I was thinking it's the sound we make when we get up/sit down after a certain age 🤣
I saw one last week. Audibly went "UGH a CYBERTRUCK!" because it looks like a metal trash can you see in commercial buildings
It is the least trucklike truck that ever trucked. What can they haul in that thing? Their phone? A dwarf chihuahua?
Load More Replies...I can't understand why you WOULDNT point and laugh when you see one, the person driving is clearly an idiot. The cyber truck is one of those things that can unite people of all walks of life in judging the person who bought the cyber truck.
Load More Replies...Nothing (with the exception of every piece of clothing by Balenciaga) exemplifies the saying, "more money than sense".
The app won't let me edit my comment to say, "BETTER exemplifies"
Load More Replies...I pointed and laughed at the driver of one as he went by. It’s the right thing to do.
And another thing: i profile the drivers. So far i have only seen middle-aged or newly-retired-aged white men, with airbuds in, who look like they're heading to their golf game or to a meeting where they are relishing ruining their client's day.
Huh. I've only seen ones with heavily tinted windows to the point you can't see who is inside.

For me, it's deleting all the important apps so that I can download a game that I'm only going to play once.
listen, i'm on inadequate government assistance and even i have a 128gb sd card in my phone. they're so cheap now.
me with emails i probably need but there are pictures of musicians that are wayyyyyyyyyyyyy more important
people say, if you know, you know. and they're right. but if you *don't* know...you don't.
Load More Replies...Yep. If I try to lift with my legs, nothing happens because my knees and hips are messed up and I can't push straight up from that position.
Load More Replies...Work in packaging for a bit and you'll learn pretty fast what they mean: let your legs do the brunt of the movement and keep your back straight while you pick things up. Your bone snake likes to stay upright as much as possible!
Actually, there’s very little evidence that moving and handling training, lift with your legs etc prevents back injuries. They hate our team when we attend the moving and handling training at work…. https://academic.oup.com/occmed/article/60/2/101/1421417
I have had bad knees since age seven, bad shoulders since age 14 a bad back since age twenty-one. Age 28, my hips and neck joined forces to stop working right. I'd be better lifting with my mind!
AHA! I always wondered why Cardini’s Caesar dressing was named Cardini!
I love broccoli... If it's steamed and drowned in Queso or some type of Alfredo sauce. I mean, it is a vegetable so it should count right?
Because veterans, dogs, cats, and y'all aren't actually free
Load More Replies...The middle age walk of shame is being the last one on your block to bring in the garbage cans after pickup.
Not to brag but I'm almost always the first to bring them back in. Queen of the Bins. (I'm suspicious that the people in the flats will steal my recycling bins because they don't have them)
Load More Replies...Wait, he actually brings them back eventually….. how did you manage to get him to do the?!
Does she make him wash them? Probably not and there's your answer.

When someone comes and washes up every single cup and plate in my house, there isn't room in the cupboard. It's specifically designed for some things to be missing from the cupboard.

My neighbour has an app for that and flowers/plants. It's like all of the mystery has left our world.
There is an incredible bird identification app, we used it, it predicted with a percentage the accuracy then we youtubed the bird and yup it was perfect!!
Next time, squirt some glue onto your hand and wait for it to dry. Then peel it off and expect to ascend to heaven.
That's a good way to pull tiny splinters like those super fine cactus spines out of your skin. A small bottle of Elmer's is in my first aid kit.

Ah, but what about if you’re doing it so much that it’s shaking the rest of the rows’ lecture chairs and because I’m overstimulated anyway for having to listen to a talk and be in a busy environment all day, that you’re making it worse as now I have to contend now with my chair shaking? This actually happened to me today and I wasn’t sure whether I could say anything, but luckily it was nearly over. But when I have sensory overload (I have chronic fatigue) it causes me physical pain - I don’t know if it is the same for other people who get overstimulated.
Load More Replies...yes. i do this but one of my friends was doing this and got in trouble for *checks notes* twerking?
I think someone doesn't know what twerking is but now I think we should make all anxious movements twerks

I had no idea how much I move around until I started seeing myself on video calls…I now make a conscious effort to move around less but it feels so unnatural, and I get to the end of the call and realise I wasn’t paying attention because I was too busy trying not to move about
At church i noticed that i was swaying back and forth while listening to the speaker. When i try to stop swaying, i can no longer pay attention to the speaker.
Load More Replies...I mean ... there are ways to stim/fidget without causing others around you to have anxiety/become overstimulated.
I'm not sure how to answer that question. What day is it? I'm reading 5-7 books at the same time. Some are certain days, some are every 4 days, some are every day, etc.
I don't know how you do that. If I start one book, and then switch to a second, I very rarely go back to the first, and I mean not go back to it at all, ever.
Load More Replies...I sometimes read fanfiction and can never admit that to people. But I got pissed that I'm too fast reader and books end before they even properly start. So it's natural to spend a bit more time with a certain book's world with fanfiction.
I read a lot of Pride and Prejudice fanfiction and I love it all.
Load More Replies...At random times I grab a Pokemon guide or pokedex off my shelf and read it cover to cover (I have problems)
Nah, that's fine. I used to take the SimCity 2000 manual with me to the bathroom to read, I get it.

I just finished The Great Gatsby. I discovered that the movie could have been A WHOLE LOT BETTER.
A few years back I got this book about the history of pandemics in the past 10,000 years. It sounded soooo awesome! But then a few months ago I started reading it and it is so incredibly boring! So boring that I just want to sell it or give it to a thrift store. Whatever. I don't want to pretend to even like it anymore. And I wanted to read a book per month this year, accidently read 6 books in 5 weeks and then this.... the book that blocked my reading-desire. I am trying my luck with some academic journals about history and folklore instead. ❤❤❤
Dump that book and read something else. Life is too short.
Load More Replies...I google as I'm reading a book because they'll mention something interesting and I google it to see what it's all about.
I swear I think older people do that more than younger ones. I Google everything - I have a lifetime of silly questions that pop up now & then. I also look reviews before I buy stuff. When my 19 year old grandson wants to know something new, he asks me. I think we appreciate that part of the internet more.
But, but, but ... I won't get into aerospace medical school with an A- on my record.
Watched American Fiction with my mom, tonight. She used to teach college English Literature. She paused the movie to tell me about failing a kid that plagiarized her. Dad was a huge donor to the school, and came in to complain. Dude walked out thanking her for teaching him a lesson.
California has some of the most varied and beautiful landscapes in North America: Redwood Forests, mountains, deserts, beaches, etc. It's simply a place mother nature shows off.
So does Oregon! You can see it all here if you don't mind a bit of a commute for the desert, flats and highlands.
Load More Replies...I’ve walked along the beach thousands of times, to the point where I don’t bother taking pictures of dolphins or orcas anymore. (Caveat: a couple of years ago, there was a group of hundreds of dolphins going crazy near Long Beach for, I dunno, some sort of Dolphinathon orgy; i took pictures XD).
So you took pictures of an orgy? Does that mean you're a pornographer now?

I grew up in NorCal and moved back a few years ago. Never could grow tired of how beautiful it is. I felt so lucky every time I drove to work through the Sonoma hills to have such a beautiful commute
Load More Replies...I live in California, and walk on a nearby trail every morning, and always am amazed at the various wildlife and plants I see.
"Murica, the country everyone likes to make fun of, is just breathtakingly beautiful and surprisingly, you will find that most people are just very very friendly. And yes, I live in Cali and I love it.
I had a holiday in Austin, Texas last year, the people were SO sweet!!! Smiley, helpful, friendly

If my guy turns his back to me in bed I automatically rub/tickle. He's a lucky bastard!
Load More Replies...Or... Hear me out... Wear less makeup? I know, unpopular opinion, but as a husband, and a dad to 4 girls, and a man, I can tell you that I have thought "what was she thinking" about too much makeup a lot. And I never thought "you know, she would benefit from darker eyelashes.
I've seen tweets about a WOC's partner putting her silk bonnet on when she forgets and falls asleep without it and I told my husband this is the equivalent of him making sure I've oil cleansed my sunscreen off.
The makeup will go missing, and I will be clueless. "Did you take it to work and forget it there?"
Sorry, guys, I don't and never have removed makeup before I go to bed.
Nah he usually just sleeps in it then complains about getting it all off before work on Monday

Edit: pretty sure it is heat rash. Thanks for the replies, it's a lot better today after I took your suggestions yesterday. 🤗
Heat rash? If not, I have some steroid cream you can borrow :) Which I possess for a nipple thing that pops up maybe twice a year… Yay boobs.
