There’s something magical about going to see the same person for a specific service all of your life. Whether they’re a baker, a butcher, a florist, a book shop salesman, or a hairdresser, people tend to be loyal to their local professionals. One example that loyalty is incredibly important to people is Sam Farr from Bristol. He’s been going to the same barber, Joe Pace who owns Giuseppe’s hairdresser’s in Bath, for nearly half a century....

If you’ve ever stood in a coffee line half-awake, you know already know that the rules of the line are sacred. They’re not written anywhere, but everyone knows them. You wait your turn, and you absolutely do not test the patience of people who haven’t had their first sip yet. Which is why today’s Original Poster’s (OP) story instantly struck a nerve. After repeated patterns of a particular guy coming in to order coffee and skipping the line, they decided to teach him a big lesson to restore order....

Substance abuse is dangerous. It creeps on you, tries to become your friend, but can destroy your life if you let it.

There’s nothing quite like a doting grandma who offers warm hugs, freshly baked cookies, and, in some cases, a complete disregard for your child’s dietary restrictions. Parenting comes with enough challenges without having to double as a food detective every time your kid returns from Grandma’s house with suspicious stomach cramps and a sticky ice cream smile. That’s the painful reality today’s Original Poster (OP) faces after her mother-in-law repeatedly ignored strict instructions to avoid giving her son dairy, despite knowing it causes him severe stomach issues....

Macro photography is amazing. You can spend vast quantities of money on equipment, but you can also gain an astonishing perspective of a whole hidden world with things that almost everyone can put their hands on. Most of my images here were taken with an old entry level dslr and a very old Pentax lens mounted backwards with a cheap little adapter from eBay. But I managed to take some simply with the camera on my phone....

The sentimental ones with big feelings and a peculiar touch-me-not sensitivity. Yes, we’re talking about the three water signs: Cancer, Scorpio, and Pisces. They may not always burst out crying or throw dramatic tantrums, but they often quietly carry deep emotional baggage. Whether it’s a secret crush they’ll never admit, picking up the pieces after heartbreak, or clocking the liars with their sixth sense, water signs aren’t casual when it comes to emotions....

The best Christmas presents aren’t the most expensive ones. Rather, they’re the most thoughtful ones. And Twitter user Donnachaidha O’Chionnaigh put all of his heart into creating something special for his nephews and nieces. While the presents themselves were practical ones — dollar bills — their packaging is what made them unique. “[I] found pics of 80s action figure packages on Google (the old ones with the figures in plastic bubbles glued onto cardboard) and recreated them or heavily modified them in Photoshop,” Donnachaidha O’Chionnaigh wrote....

My name is Valerio, and I am a San Francisco based 3D capture artist. If you are not familiar with what photogrammetry is, you will be after reading through this story.

Parents usually don’t understand their kids when it comes to fads and memes. And often times, even if they try to, it is cringy and awkward for a lack of better words. However, when kids themselves don’t get the fads and memes, this is where the two teams unite and produce internet gold. Just like this dad who decided to be the ideal representation of a VSCO girl for Halloween and be filmed by his daughter… What?...

Have you noticed how you can learn a lot from your cat? They seem to have been born with infinite wisdom. We humans know nothing! We don’t even know how to deal with silly everyday problems.

One of the most common challenges working parents face is finding someone to care for their kids. Looking after the little munchkins is a tough job in itself, after all, and it’s equally difficult to leave them in someone else’s hands. That’s why people spend time and effort to hire that special someone who wins their trust, bonds with the little ones, and respects their rules. But when overachieving moms and dads have superhuman expectations, it’s a whole other story....
