Sipping cocktails by the pool and skinny-dipping at 1AM or chatting about table liners with your mom and mom-in-law while sipping lukewarm tea? Is that even a choice? Well, apparently, for some people it is. Because weddings don’t just bring 2 people together, they rope in everyone within a 10-mile radius. Moms, aunts, cousins, you name it. Suddenly, everyone has thoughts on napkin colors and signature cocktails. And just when a couple thinks they’ve caught a break, like scoring a free beach vacation, someone’s mom drops hints about joining, turning the romantic getaway into a wedding-planning bootcamp for the family....

Here’s my son holding Toby the teddybear. Hanging on the wall is a picture of her in Paris, painted by my Grandpa....

We all have our struggles, whether those would be health issues, psychological or financial problems. Some of us manage to get through the day on our own by some miracle, despite the hardships we face. But some play the game of life on higher difficulty settings. Luckily, there are still some people empathetic enough towards strangers to jump in and help if they see someone in need. That’s exactly the case with Bianca Garibay, who noticed a young mom, struggling to pay for a single slice of cake for her son’s birthday, and immediately knew she had to do something....

Have you ever seen a piece of clothing at a thrift store and thought, “This would be perfect if it were only my size!” Or maybe if it didn’t have these weird puffed sleeves or a glittery collar. Most of us simply turn down a piece like that because we don’t have the skills or resources to do anything about it, but some particularly innovative individuals can actually take a piece of clothing that leaves much to be desired and transform it into something they will proudly wear for years to come....

When moving into a new home, you never know exactly what your neighbors will be like. They might be extremely friendly and bring you a casserole upon moving in, or they might be aloof and not say anything to you until you have been in the neighborhood for a year. One easy way to make friends with your neighbors is if your children can all play together, but that generally works best when the kids are around the same age....

I personally try to avoid elevators as much as I possibly can. Taking the stairs is so much more convenient, as you never have to wait until they’re free, and getting some extra steps in is great for your health ! But there are plenty of situations where taking an elevator is a necessity. If you’re going up 12 floors or transporting heavy boxes, you just might need an elevator. You’ll just have to hope that nobody’s holding it up!...

Some brands have such a huge reputation that we instantly recognize not only the logo but also the font they use. Meanwhile, some logos are thoroughly enrapturing and stick in our minds because of how aesthetic they are. However, there’s a worrying trend that some have spotted: company logos are all starting to look pretty much the same. Standardized. Homogeneous. Readable? Definitely. But bland and (arguably) increasingly soulless. Bored Panda reached out to Matt Johnson, Ph....

When people avoid difficult conversations, their problems often don’t just go away. On the contrary, hurt feelings can make things much worse.

A messy custody arrangement and pressure to step in as a sibling for two girls they’re not related to made the teenager feel stuck in a stepfamily they never asked for....

Humanity is reaching the point of no return regarding ecology. Planting trees is a great solution, but it isn’t a one-size-fits-all deal given the immense complexity of the environmental issues we as a species face. Plastic continues to be a huge problem. Not only does it take energy and other resources to produce, but also much of it ends up as waste in the various natural habitats around the globe. Bored Panda has already covered a perfect example of how much it affects our oceans with this diver’s first-hand experience with plastic waste in our oceans....

The majority will agree that dating is a pretty challenging thing. Yet, some might argue that the process has changed drastically, as we don’t actually need to do nearly as many things as our parents did, for instance. Our generation has been “blessed” with various online dating applications that are supposed to help us find interesting people and make the whole love-hunting process just a tad bit easier – however, with the introduction of apps, more and more stories pop up, and a fair share of them aren’t that amusing....

We often hear the question about our creations being dominated by mystical characters in nature, that generate short stories, fairy tales, fancy stories. At that moment I feel troubled by it… Why has nature became a fairy-tale plot and the concrete life is a daily phenomenon. Sometimes I feel like I’m in the man-made world of illusions and someone wants to draw a clear boundary between it and nature. After all, should it be the opposite?...
