Napoleon Was Once Attacked by Rabbits

Emperor Napoleon of France was once one of the most powerful men in the world. In 1807, he had recently signed the Treaties of Tilsit, ending the war between France and Russia, and was in the mood to celebrate. Not being one to take on the lowly task of party planning himself, he asked Chief of Staff Alexandre Berthier to plan a luncheon and rabbit hunt in anticipation of a relaxing afternoon.

Berthier planned the celebration, arranging the outdoor meal, inviting top military brass, and ordering a large number of rabbits for the hunt. The numbers range from the hundreds up to three thousand, and though we’ll probably never know the exact amount, we can all agree that either way, that’s a lot of bunnies.

Napoleon and his friends began to prowl the field and the rabbits were released…but they didn’t run away.

Instead, they hopped as fast as they could, directly toward the triumphant French emperor. The party laughed, but only at first. The rabbits kept coming, more and more of them, swarming Napoleon’s legs and climbing his jacket. He tried, without success, to shoot them. The coachmen and their bullwhips, the men and their sticks, were also useless against the onslaught of floppy-eared fuzzies.

Napoleon did something he had (maybe) never done before – he turned tail and ran for his carriage. The rabbits, who, according to historian David Chandler, possessed “a finer understanding of Napoleonic strategy than most of his generals…divided into two wings and poured around the flanks of the party and headed for the imperial coach.”

Some of the rabbits reportedly leaped into the carriage, and the Emperor escaped only when his carriage driver decided to gun it for the hills.

The rabbits, as it turned out, were tame and not wild, which means they equated humans with a a food source as opposed to a direct threat (apparently even if those humans beat at them with weapons). It was Berthier’s mistake, but no word on whether he lost his job as Chief of Staff – or something more valuable, like his head.

One more detail lost to history. We can all be thankful, though, that the rabbit story has survived.

Science Says Hang Up Your Christmas Decorations Early And Let Yourself Be Happier

Labor Day has come and gone, and that means fall is creeping up around the corner. This may please you or not, but according to the latest science, busting out your Christmas decorations earlier is guaranteed to make you happier if you’re a human being who celebrates the season.

Photo Credit: Pixabay

Well, it turns out you “save it for after Thanksgiving” haters are wrong, at least insofar as the effect that putting those decorations up whenever you feel like it has on the homeowners and the people around them. According to psychoanalyst and owner of the McKeown Clinic Steve McKeown:

“Although there could be a number of symptomatic reasons why someone would want to obsessively put up decorations early, it’s most commonly for nostalgic reasons either to relive the magic or to compensate for past neglect.”

Alternatively, he also believes that it could have a lot to do with the strong pull of our childhood memory and experiences.

“In a world full of stress and anxiety people like to associate to things that make them happy, and Christmas decorations evoke those strong feelings of childhood. Decorations are simply an anchor or pathway to those old magical emotions of excitement.”

A study published in the Journal of Environmental Psychology also concludes that decorating early outside your house makes you appear more friendly and is more likely to engage your neighbors.

Amy Morin, psychotherapist and best-selling author of 13 Things Mentally Strong People Don’t Do, has her own ideas about why celebrating the holidays for as long as possible makes you happier:

“For people who have lost a loved one, the holidays may serve as a reminder of happy times they had with that person in the past. Decorating early may help them feel more connected with that individual.”

Whatever your reasons, here’s the bottom line – if putting up your decorations in the fall instead of in December makes you happier, do it! Your house, your rules, and it sounds as if your neighbors might end up thanking you in the long run, too.

Happy Holidays, whenever you choose to begin celebrating.

Ease the Stress of Moving With These 4 Helpful Tips

Moving into a new place is always more stressful than you think it is going to be. And if you’re moving into a new city? Good luck…

Since moving is something most of us won’t be able to avoid, you’re going to want to keep these tips handy!

#4. Plan for the financial strain.

There are many times people move before they’ve found a job, or a forced to make a big move without adequate savings, and all of this can add up to a lot of stress. Even if you have planned for your move, expenses are bound to crop up – it helps to know this ahead of time, realize you can’t control all of it, but plan for it as best as you can.

One way to keep expenses down is to leave behind the belongings you don’t love or don’t know that you’ll need in your new space. It can save you money and give you a sense of starting fresh that’s worth more than money.

#3. Stay in touch, but don’t forget to put yourself out there in your new home.

That said, while staying in touch and giving yourself time is important, do your best to find your niches in your new place. If you go to church, find a new one. If you like volunteering, sign up. If you’re a gym rat, join a new one and start talking to people. The more willing and proactive you are about creating a welcoming environment for yourself in your new home, the faster it will feel like somewhere you belong.

#2. Expect a sense of loss.

Our identities are often inextricably linked with the places we live and the people who move dependably in and our of our daily lives. Moving disrupts not only our routines but our sense of self, and it’s okay to feel like a fish out of water as you explore your new habitat and find ways to fit yourself into it.

Remind yourself of that, and give yourself time to adjust.

#1. Remember all the positives about moving.

Moving can help you grow and change as a person in exciting ways. Change isn’t easy, but many of us move in search of better opportunities and to achieve big dreams of the future. Don’t lose sight of all of the positive things that forced you out of your comfort zone in the first place, and do your best to embrace them as you move forward.

15 People Reveal Something They Don’t Know, But Now It’s Too Late to Ask

We all have little knowledge gaps in our minds. Whether it’s something complicated like how to drive a stick shift or something simple like how to tie your shoes, these things can be embarrassing to ask about if you didn’t learn them at the right age.

You know what I mean? These people do:

#15. How can you stay?

“What its like to be in a serious relationship with someone who you don’t see a future with. Guys either didn’t make it past a casual relationship with me, or they (he) were extremely serious and we’d plan our life together.

How can you stay with someone that you don’t want to spend the rest of your life with?”

#14. Hot or cold?

“Do I actually have to do separate loads of laundry for hot and cold wash, or can I just keep washing everything on cold?

Edit: wow this blew up. Thank you everyone for your replies! I now know more about laundry than I ever thought I would!”

#13. Hot farts.

“Why do ‘hot’ farts stink so much more than the cool ones? Is the temperature of the fart higher, making it feel hot? Or is it something having to do with the blood vessels in your ass? And why would hot ones stink so badly?”

#12. Sexting

“How to dirty text. I can’t tell where the appropriate line is between ‘hot naughty things’ and ‘thats disgusting’.”

#11. The math gods.

“Physics. I passed physics 101 by the skin of my teeth. Literally by 2 points.

I still don’t understand how I managed to pass that class. I assume the math gods finally took pity on me.”

#10. You’re not alone, my friend.

“After all these years still cant understand how Bitcoin works for the life of me.”

#9. George Costanza?

“Numerous aspects of my job.”

#8. The awkward feeling.

“So, eh, how do i make friends if i’m not in school anymore? Do i just barge into an existing group (say .. in a local whatever-sports-club) and ignore the awkward feeling of being an intruder long enough that i somehow belong too?”

#7. For three years.

“I have a double light switch on the kitchen wall by my garage and dining room entrances. I still flip both of them to figure out which controls what lights. I’ve lived there for 3 years.”

#6. Bunny ears ftw.

“The “loop, swoop and pull” method of tying shoes. Been using bunny years since I can remember and even tried learning the other way once. At this point I don’t even care.”

#5. Every Monday.

“Every Monday morning for the last 6 months a guy I work with walks up to me and says, “Monday”, with the tone you would use to say, “Morning”, as a greeting. I think it’s a movie quote, because he always laughs like it’s a joke. I’ve smiled and laughed along this entire time and now it’s too late to ask him what he’s referencing. I do my best to hide from him every Monday now.

I’d love any insight.”

#4. Which term would be acceptable?

“I’m interning with a judge, let’s call him Bob Roberts. I got the position through his son, and have been doing this for two months. The catch: in the last two months I have never called him by his name. I don’t understand which term would be acceptable. Bob, because he’s my friend’s dad? Mr. Roberts, because he’s an adult and I’m a teenager? Judge Roberts, because he’s a judge?

I compromised with myself by never saying his name, which is also kinda awkward. And because I was afraid to clarify at the start, I’ve been stuck in this quagmire for the whole summer. Help.”

#3. On paper.

“I just got an A in calculus 3 and I don’t know how to long divide on paper.”

#2. Swimming.

“How to swim…”

#1. Dude, it’s too late.

“World of Warcraft. I missed the popular days, and everybody just tell me “Dude, it’s too late..”
