At the time he was out of town, so he rushed home and frantically cleaned his house…for 14 hours straight.

The guy claims that he’s a neckbeard, sit at home all day and work temp jobs with odd hours type of dude. No friends, no acquaintances, etc. So he hadn’t really had a person in his home for over 3 years. He blames this as the main reason why he had no will to clean anything at all.

Here’s the hallway/entrance.

The kitchen.

The bedroom.

Toilet. I could only imagine what’s living in that thing.

Bathroom.

Stovetop.

Kitchen.

Sink.

Living room.

Computer space in the living room.

Living room with blocked exit to the kitchen.

And finally the living room.

Armed with a can of washable spray paint, the concerned citizen adopted the alter ego of Wanksy — like Banksy, but with a wang, cuz of dicks. You get it.

Wanksy canvased the city, searching out potholes and circling them with a dick as if to call out to his city officials “Hey, quit being dicks and fix these potholes, you wankers!”

Okay, so dicks on the road are juvenile, but guess what? The potholes got fixed. Boom! Just goes to show that being a dick can get things done.

In one minute, this model goes through 100 years’ worth of hair and makeup trends.

Here’s what women were doing in the ’20s.

That lipstick precision deserves a gold medal.
The 1940s were all about the Victory Roll.

Mainly, it’s counted as a victory if you can get that to stay in place all day.
The ’60s were such a tease.

Don’t forget the blue eyeshadow.
If you’re allergic to hairspray, the ’80s were not for you.

The more crimping, the better.
Sigh. The ’90s were so good.

Good thing they’re making a comeback, right?
Just to be clear, 2010 will forever be known as the decade of duckface.

All Trader Joe’s stores are company-owned.

Clear stomachs, full wallets, can’t lose.

Trader Joe’s doesn’t just give out free samples. If you ask a team member, they will open ANYTHING in the store and let you try it — including the wine, depending on state laws.

HERE. FOR. THIS.

Triple Ginger Snaps are Trader Joe’s most popular product.

Not surprisingly, Speculoos Cookie Butter comes in at second.

 As of 2012, Trader Joe’s has sold more than 600 million bottles of its popular Two-Buck Chuck wine.

Except now it’s $2.49. SAD FACE.

You may have noticed Trader Joe’s has NO internal PA system in its stores like most supermarkets. Instead, it uses bells.

One bell means it is time to open a new register. Two bells, and someone has a question at checkout. Three bells, and it’s a request for the manager.

Some Trader Joe’s products are limited-run, so once they’re sold out, that’s it.

Trader Joe’s will also discontinue products, so there is a constantly rotating selection of items in the store.

Trader Joe’s keeps its prices so low that the store never offers weekly specials or sales on its products.

Trader Joe’s has a no questions asked return policy

You can return whatever you want, for any reason. NO. QUESTIONS. ASKED.

There actually is a REAL Trader Joe!

Joe Coulombe opened the first Trader Joe’s in 1967.

Legend has it that the original Trader Joe came up with the idea for the tropical-themed store while on vacation in the Caribbean.

He already owned a chain of convenience stores, but was facing stiff competition against 7-Eleven.

The Trader Joe’s crew wears Hawaiian shirts because they want to take customers on culinary travels.

They view themselves as “traders on the culinary seas.”

And Trader Joe’s treats its crew REALLY well.

Part-time employees can earn $20 an hour with FULL benefits and store managers can earn $130,000 a year. MONEY IN THE BANK!

Many Trader Joe’s have a toy or stuffed animal hidden somewhere in the store for kids to find.

Once they find the toy, they can bring it to customer service for a prize!

A normal Trader Joe’s only sells 4,000 items, while a typical supermarket sells 50,000.

Out of these items, 80% are Trader Joe’s own brand.

Trader Joe’s didn’t expand outside California until 1993 and didn’t open an East Coast store until 1996.

And THIS is what it looked like when the first TJ’s opened in New York City in 2006.

Every Trader Joe’s has its own in-house artist. Now you know where all those fancy blackboard illustrations come from!

Finally, EVERY Trader Joe’s has a plastic lobster displayed somewhere in the store.

See if you can spot one on your next visit!

NOW GO FORTH AND FEAST WITH THIS INFORMATION.

Getting annoyed when your friends aren’t around to go to the pub at 2 p.m. on Tuesday.

Having to kill massive amounts of time before anyone can come meet you to do anything.

“Yeah, it’s cool that you can’t meet me until 8 p.m….even though I’m off at 12 and basically have to be asleep by 9 p.m.”

When you see tweets from people who are like, “Yay, so glad it’s FRIDAY!!!” you’re like YEAH WHATEVER.

HOW NICE FOR YOU.

Any song about Friday playing while you’re at work makes you want to cry.

Well, I would like to get down with Friday, but I CANNOT.

Only being able to do your grocery shopping at the 24-hour Tesco, at 2 a.m.

 Those magnificent bags under your eyes.

Wondering if you have a problem for drinking at 6 a.m. even though you technically just got off work.

Never knowing what day of the week it is.

Being a killjoy on a Saturday night because you need to go home and sleep.

Being a killjoy on Saturday night because you now have to go to work.

Not even being out on a Saturday night because you’re at work.

Having a bizarre eating schedule that means you’re ready for lunch at 9 a.m.

And are ready for second dinner at 9 p.m.

And it’s basically always SNACK O’CLOCK.

You feel personally victimised by the song “9-5”.

When a customer says to you, “Enjoy your weekend!” when you’re clearly working.

All of the inside jokes and WORK LOLZ happen when you’re out of the office, so you have no idea what anyone is talking about, ever.

Missing all the big office parties (and every single night out) because you’re holding down the fort while everyone else has fun.

Missing out on all the big family gatherings on holidays because you’re WORKING.

 When your grandma gives you shade when you arrive late for Christmas dinner because you were WORKING.

When your mum makes passive-aggressive Facebook statuses about how great it was “having all the family together” for Sunday dinner and you were WORKING.

Torturing yourself by checking Instagram when all of your friends are out and you’re WORKING.

When you sign for a delivery and the postman totally judges you because it’s 4 p.m. and you’re still in your pyjamas and have major Sleep Face.

Literally never seeing your significant other when they’re awake.

When you hear people complain about being tired and you’re like, “I’VE BEEN UP SINCE 3 IN THE MORNING”.

Feeling like you exist in a parallel universe only inhabited by bored paramedics and miserable journalists.

When you see university students slobbing around town in sweatpants and desperately clutching Frappuccinos and you’re just like, “YOU HAVE NO IDEA WHAT TIRED EVEN IS, KID.”

Checking Twitter on your break and the only ones online are people with insomnia or Australians.

Bank holidays are really just a slap in the face.

When people totally don’t understand why you can’t just “change shifts” so you can come to their birthday party.

Feeling like a slob for sleeping until 3 p.m. even though you didn’t get home from work until 10 a.m.

Trying to sleep when the rest of the world outside is 100% awake and SUPER LOUD.

So many children crying! So many cars! So many people having their houses renovated! So much DIY! SO MUCH TALKING ON THE STREE

Feeling like you work a lot harder than everyone else because it’s only YOU working on your shift.

“Can you cover for me while I head out for some food? OH, WAIT, I AM ALONE.”

You are always THAT friend who can never commit to anything because you don’t know your work schedule yet.

So lonely.

The post Things Only People Who Work Weird Hours Will Understand appeared first on Barnorama.

 Your new favorite activity (besides working out, obvs): fondling your own muscles in self-satisfaction when you’re bored.

Heavy things now feel so…light.

You can say “I didn’t know my own strength” with sincere incredulity.

Somehow you’re able to climb flights and flights of stairs without feeling winded.

Normally, you’d be holding onto the banister for dear life while dry heaving after staircase 1.

Probably because you feel a lightness akin to moon gravity.

Your new level of energy knows no bounds.

None of your clothes fit anymore.

For better or for worse, depending on how much money is in your bank account.

You actually crave healthy food.

MMMM, nothing like a giant bowl of crisp, delicious roughage.

But you also know that if you eat something terrible, it won’t matter.

Metabolism, yo.

Speaking of food, is it lunch time yet?

Because you’re never NOT hungry.

Your healthy habits are starting to rub off on everyone around you.

The people who once shamed you for avoiding the fried chicken at the Super Bowl party and heading to the gym instead of happy hour are now asking you for advice on how to live their lives.

You sleep good. Soooo good.

You fall into bed and pass out into a violent puff of exhaustion. No more perusing random articles about occult murders on Wikipedia at 4 a.m.

You realize there are veins you never knew existed.

You are a Master of Vascular.

You can actually hear your body talk.

If you eat something disagreeable or get a little less sleep than usual, your body knows what’s up because it is no longer a den of garbage.

The combination of endorphins and confidence results in the best sex of your goddamned life.

The best things in life make you sweaty.

You’ve never had to deal with this much dirty laundry.

And if you don’t keep on top of it, you risk everything you own smelling like ass sweat.

Two words: mental clarity.

All that mucilage sloshing around in your brain has been miraculously siphoned out and replaced with the lyrical sound of your own thoughts.

BIGGER AND BETTER POOPS FTW.

You’ve never known true catharsis until now.

You get hangovers after one beer.

Ohhhhhhh god. Guess you’re NOT going to the gym today.

Feeling sore is such a surprisingly satisfying feeling.

You revel in lactic acid.

You are now officially a morning person.

Coffee who?

Fresh air never felt so good.

Going outside and really breathing it all in gives you a renewed sense of self, now that you’re hyperaware of the air flowing through your body.

Your newfound addiction to working out has helped you kick all your other vices.

Now that you actually work out your lungs, it no longer feels good to fill them with toxic smoke.

Your skin hasn’t looked this good since you were in elementary school.

Regularly working up a sweat has really sucked your pores clean.

The realization that you’ve reached the threshold where working out is not a chore — you legitimately enjoy it.

The old you would never have believed you, but working out is FUN now that all your hard work has paid off.

The picture was part of a calendar shoot by plus-size swimsuit company Swimsuits for All.

Plus-size models Robyn Lawley, Jada Sezer, Shareefa J, and plus-size fashion blogger Gabi Gregg hoped to fight society’s obsession with stick-thin bodies in a calendar for the fashion website.

The company said it was hoping to capture “confident, sexy women with varying body types to highlight the beauty in all women.”

Gabi Gregg, a 27-year-old blogger who is a size 18, said she took part in the calendar to help promote more positive body images.

“I think it’s sad that the representatives of women in mainstream culture are usually so small because we have such a diversity of sizes in the real world,” she said.

“I think there need to be more publications and campaigns so that people can say, ‘Wow, I look like these women, and they look comfortable and sexy and they’re portraying my body type,’” 24-year-old model Jada Sezer said.

The calendar, shot in Turks and Caicos, is available for free on the shop’s website.

Brian Reda is a photographer and stay-at-home dad.

A dad responds to negative comments about his parenting with some pretty awesome photos.

Yesterday he posted this photo on Reddit, and his hardcore hand gesture was met with some backlash.

In response, he uploaded even more photos.

“Some people put up quite the stink about the “metal hand” in the picture of my son at the zoo,” he wrote.

“I’m a stay-at-home dad and [this is] the way I’ve chosen to document our life together.”

“So suck it. Dad life is metal.”

But there’s more to the story than just a really metal dad.

Instead of taking photos of just his son, Reda says the hand gesture makes him part of the story, too.

“We’re a little team,” he said.

Reda’s captured all the important moments of parenthood, from the easy ones…

…to the hard ones.

From the fun stuff…

…to the not-so-fun.

And while Reda agrees dad life is pretty much the most metal thing there is…

…he says the most metal award goes to his wife, Angela.

Rock on, Metal Dad.

Not everyone win at life. It’s a sad fact, but one people must accept. Sometimes, there are people in the world that win so hard at life, they stop everyone else from having even minor victories. Instead of finding extra french fries at the bottom of their fast food bag, they find $100 bills.

Take these people for example. They just pulled off epic wins so incredible, they may never top it in life. Talk about pressure (and #WINNING).

Oh, you’re going to pan to the audience? PERFECT.

Disaster imminent? Nah.

This dog knows what’s UP.

Just dunking, no big deal.

This guy can turn into a chair. You’re welcome.

This is how you REALLY hockey.

Walking down the stairs takes too much time.

Troll cat is winning.

 This is what a close call looks like.

Normal bowling is just too boring.

Protesting for the WIN.

This is a hero among heroes.

Epic recovery, kid.

ONWARD, MIGHTY STEED!

Because gymnastics wasn’t hard enough.

Even putting on clothes can be cool.

Cone of shame? More like cone of awesome.

This kid is going places.

Juggling or eating… why not do both?

Don’t. Mess. With. Her.

No one has a better reaction than this kid.

PSYCHE.

Double-psyche!

Oh look, a truck! Let me ramp off of it.

It just doesn’t get any better than narrowly avoiding disaster and then coming out so far on top, you look like some kind of mind-reading, incredible wizard. Share these people’s awesome victories and cross your fingers some day in the future you can nail it like they did.

Matthew McConaughey was in New Orleans when his family started pointing in the direction across the street and he wondered why.

Oh. That’s because BRAD PITT was standing on the balcony across from them.

Just two normal dudes.

Chitchatting from across the way, as two normal guys who aren’t anything but normal do.

Chitchatting from across the way, as two normal guys who aren’t anything but normal do.

But then Brad thought Matthew might be thirsty. So, he threw him a beer.

Oh yeah, he threw that beer.

Yes, that beer got thrown.

It got thrown real good.

And then Matthew enjoyed that beer (see, beer in hand). Oh yeah and Drew Brees was there too.

Someone get this cat a medal.

A cat in Bakersfield, Calif., potentially saved a boy’s life when it staved off a vicious dog attack, and the whole rescue was caught on surveillance video.

A dog belonging to a neighbor comes around a car and sneaks up on the boy.

The dog runs up to the boy and viciously attacks him, dragging him down the pavement by the leg.

Suddenly, the family cat, Tara, rushes out and knocks the dog off the boy, saving him.

Tara even makes sure the dog gets the message that it’s not welcome.

The boy’s mother told KERO-TV that he was fine, but needed a few stitches.

Growing up, you were the last to fall asleep at sleepovers.

You’ll sleep when you’re dead.

And now, you’re restlessly awake for hours after your significant other has fallen asleep next to you.

You have friends in other timezones to keep you company when everyone around you is fast asleep.

You schedule emails to send later so your boss* won’t judge you for working at 4 a.m.

*And colleagues, and professors, and friends, and parents.

You work all day, but don’t really get anything done until you’re alone in the dead of night.

If you have roommates, you spend your prime working hours tiptoeing and typing as quietly as possible.

You know every 24-hour store and restaurant in your neighborhood.

And the late-night food delivery men know you by name.

Your innocuous texts come across as drunk booty texts just by virtue of being sent at 3 a.m.

Getting in bed early doesn’t mean getting more sleep. It means angrily tossing and turning for a few hours.

People constantly ask you why you’re up so late, and you don’t know what to say.

Also: “Do you ever sleep?”

And: “Wow, you’re literally a vampire.”

Your friends are always tired and ready to go home when you’re just starting to have fun.

But if they ever make early plans, you’re definitely the last to show up.

Brunch at noon? How about 3 p.m. instead?

Seriously. Everything about waking up in the morning sucks. Fuck alarms and sunrise and birds chirping.

People are always giving you well-meaning advice on how to fall asleep earlier.

And, out of desperation, you’ve tried almost all of it.

Your parents have always been on your case about not sleeping enough.

And, over the years, you’ve figured out ways to hide it from them.

You come up with your best ideas at night.

And wake up to a bunch of barely comprehensible notes and self-emails to remind yourself of them.

You’ve seen (and Instagrammed) a lot of sunrises.

Waking up early for school/work means you almost never get more than four hours of sleep during the week.

But you make sure to catch up on it by sleeping 12-plus hours on the weekend.

Your special skills include: binge-watching terrible TV shows…

Snacking silently in bed…

And mindlessly scrolling down Reddit/Tumblr/Twitter for hours.

Of course, you’re totally and completely useless in the morning, and need a gallon of coffee to get through the day.

But it’s all worth it for your hours of peace and quiet solace in the dark…

Hidden away from the world, and all of its insufferable diurnal people.

The post Greatest Joys And Struggles Of Being A Late-Night Person appeared first on Barnorama.

First of all, the struggle never ends, because your stomach is a bottomless pit.

You want your cake so you can eat it too.

While normal people have emotions like “happiness” and “sadness,” you only feel “hungry” and “really hungry.”

Hungry + anger = HANGRY, the worst emotion of them all.

When you go out drinking with your friends, you’re just worried about where you are going to get drunk food.

And really, your idea of a fun Friday night is going to your favorite restaurant.

Waiting for food at a restaurant can only be described as complete and utter agony.

Your heart breaks when the waiter brings out food, only to walk past you to serve it to another table.

 If someone else’s food comes first, you have to wait and watch them eat. It is basically torture.

But the worst is when your food comes first, and you are expected to sit and wait until everyone else’s food arrives.

Once you are allowed to eat, there is absolutely no chance you will eat like a polite, civilized human.

You’re annoyed at people who stop to take pictures of their food, because that is time wasted they could have spent on eating.

Also, when people try to talk to you while you are eating, you want to SCREAM. Eating > talking, ALWAYS.

Some people need their morning coffee to get their day started. You, on the other hand, need breakfast.

The hour before lunch is basically the longest hour of your life.

Eating lunch is great, but you just KNOW you’re going to be hungry again in an hour or two.

When you go on a date, you’re more interested in dinner than the person sitting across from you.

Your appetite has a reputation with friends and family. You would care, but you’re too busy trying to find food.

You probably like food more than you like people.

After all, food never lets you down. People do.

It sometimes is awkward when you have to ask someone if they are going to finish what they’re eating…

But whatever, you’re gonna do it anyway. You WANT that food.

Also, you will fight to the death for that last slice of pizza. AS IF someone else was going to claim it.

Grocery shopping is a struggle, because you want it ALL.

Like, if you don’t make a shopping list and stick to it, you’re going to leave with WAY more than you need.

And finally, the amount of food you eat normally would be considered embarrassing…

…But honestly, you’re too busy stuffing your face to care.

This post is literally one gigantic SPOILER, even if you’re caught up on the show.

Last night Joffrey was poisoned at his wedding. But how did it happen?!

Well, do you remember Ser Dontos? The drunk guy who’s been creeping on Sansa?

Before Joffrey’s wedding, he gives her a necklace. That necklace has seven crystals. This is important!

The next day, Lady Olenna, the very badass matriarch of the Tyrells, comes over to Sansa during Joffrey’s wedding. She’s actually…

…pulling off one of Sansa’s crystals.

In the Game of Thrones universe, there’s a poison called “The Strangler.” It’s made from purple crystallized plants.

A bit later Joffrey gets drunk, humiliates Tyrion, and forces Tyrion to be his cupbearer.

Tyrion goes to get Joffrey’s wine. All the while, Lady Olenna is watching the wine very, very closely.

And then Joffrey drinks the wine and dies.

Hooray!

And no one, except for Ser Dontos and Lady Olenna, was the wiser. That is…unless there were others involved…

Zac won the award for Best Shirtless Performance (obviously, there was NO competition).

But he was wearing his shirt, and Rita Ora knew that had to be fixed.

And after she ripped off his buttons and exposed his beautiful torso, she tried to put it back on…

But Zac, man of the people, knew better.

HE KNEW WHAT WE NEEDED. HE RIPPED THAT DUMB, STUPID SHIRT OFF AND THREW IT ON THE FLOOR WHERE IT BELONGS.

And he flexed. Oh my god he flexed so hard.

And gave us the double salute, while he just stood there.

Then he gave another salute because he knew that he just made America proud.

*wipes dribble off chin*

He also did this lip thinggggggsjkndflgjmslkdfjgmlskdjgfmlsg.

AND THEN SENT US KISSES AND WE ALL DIED.

And thank you, Rita Ora, for being an outstanding citizen of the world by doing what you did.
