Dad Creates a Treasure Hunt After Daughter Asks Him What’s in the Attic

Most of us avoid going up into the attic if we can help it. It’s usually full of cobwebs, it’s super hot or super cold and it’s full of junk we’d rather not sort through at the moment.

But for kids, the attic door is basically the equivalent of a trapdoor hiding a secret, hidden, magical compartment.

Dad Jason Robinson decided to give his daughter Emma a true adventure when she asked what was behind the attic door in the ceiling. It’s so sweet that we bet you won’t be able to hold back tears reading what he did for his daughter.

Here’s how it all began:

But rather than let her see what the attic actually is — storage — he built her an elaborate treasure hunt:

Complete with a treasure chest:

A treasure map:

That led Emma to a key that will unlock her newfound treasure:

This kid is just too cute!

Here’s her sweet reaction when she follows the treasure map right to the “X marks the spot:”

And here’s what awaited her inside the treasure box:

Needless to say, Emma was STOKED and decided to spend the rest of the day as a princess:

Well done, Dad. Well done. We are seriously impressed with the level of detail and care you took in orchestrating this holy thing. It’s a memory she’ll probably keep with her for the rest of her life, which is so, so great.

What’s the coolest thing your mom or dad did for you as a kid? Any elaborate games or treasure hunts that stick with you to this day?

A 5-Year-Old Stole His Parents’ Car When They Wouldn’t Buy Him a Lamborghini

We all probably did it as kids: Run away from home after getting into a fight with our parents.

Usually, this involved walking out the front door and wandering around the neighborhood for a little bit. Or maybe you had a “secret” hideout in a tree in the backyard you took shelter in during these moments.

A 5-year-old in Utah really takes the cake for “running away from home” stories. Instead of packing a knapsack and hiding out in the backyard, he decided to take his parents’ car for a little joyride.

Keep in mind here: The kid’s five years old.

Utah Highway Patrol responded to the situation and were able to pull the underage driver without issue.

They even explained exactly what he was mad about: His parents refused to buy him a Lamborghini. Dang, kid’s got expensive tastes!

When Mom refused, he hopped in the family car and decided to march himself to California to buy one himself.

Unfortunately, his progress was impeded by the police. Drat!

The officers joked that he may not have had enough for a new Lamborghini even if he made it to California safely, since he only had $3 in his pocket. But you gotta hand it to the kid for his initiative. We see a bright future ahead of you, kid!

A few people on Twitter agreed with us:

But others were SO not amused by his antics:

Other people were upset with police for sharing the story on social media:

And one Tweeter had a great idea for the kid’s 16th birthday gift:

What do you think about how the Utah police handled the situation? Should they have posted the story on Twitter? Charged the boy and his parents? Something else entirely.

It’s not every day you see a 5-year-old driving a car down the highway, so let us know your thoughts.

We’d love to hear from you!

Woman Flips Out When She Learns About Boyfriend’s Secret Room

Many of us have dreamed about having hidden compartments and secret rooms in our homes, the kind you can only reach by pushing on one particular spot in a bookcase or by tilting a light fixture to just the right angle.

That dream was actually a reality for one man, who renovated an apartment to include a secret room. Not long after that, however, he soon found himself in hot water when his girlfriend learned about his “secret room” after they moved in together. She was furious with him for keeping the room secret from her and she felt like he violated his trust.

Now he wants to know: is he the asshole for keeping the room secret?

Read the full saga below:

AITA for not telling my fiancée about a secret room in our apartment? from AmItheAsshole

Reddit decided he was likely not the asshole, but he really didn’t take into account his fiance’s feelings at all, either.

But from the big-picture perspective, comparing it to another woman seems a bit … much:

Photo Credit: Reddit

Other people chalked up her overreaction to cabin fever:

Photo Credit: Reddit

Some people wondered if her behavior now was a symptom of some larger problem:

Photo Credit: Reddit

While others said they would’ve been thrilled to learn they had a secret room in their new home:

Photo Credit: Reddit

Still, some people thought it was a bit creepy and weird. Like why was he waiting to surprise her with a secret room anyway?

Photo Credit: Reddit

Moving in together can be tough, no doubt, but this situation just seems downright bizarre. Sure, you’re not an asshole, but why are you hiding stuff from your fiance and why do you have a hidden room that’s so sacred to you?

Do you think this guy was the asshole? Or was his fiance overreacting? Some mix of both?

People Share Their Worst Bridezilla Experiences

Weddings are supposed to be a beautiful celebration between committed partners in a relationship, but they can also be stressful.

On top of expenses, decisions about who to invite, and high expectations about a day that is significant to the lives of all involved, people can have some serious attitude problems. There’s a reason why the term “bridezilla” was coined, after all.

That’s why one Reddit thread asked bridesmaids to spill the beans about the bridezillas they’ve encountered. Some of these stories are nuts.

15. This Was Going to Cost Bridesmaids $2K!

“She asked 16 girls to be bridesmaids. In the year and a half between the engagement and wedding, all but 6 dropped out (3 were her sisters). She wanted 16 separate shades of blue and 16 different styles of dresses for each bridesmaid then threw a fit when the store didn’t have that many options. She demanded everyone pay for a week long bachelorette party in Vegas (including her share) and then got mad when some people opted out (I was a single mom/college student at the time). Her parents gave her a $20,000 budget and she ended up spending $100k and demanding they pay for it- they took out a loan they are still paying off. She wanted everyone to have the same shade of hair so she asked the two blonde bridesmaids to dye their hair (they declined). She paid for nothing for the bridesmaids (traditionally the brides pay for something- the hair/makeup or the dress) but demanded we purchase specific shoes, jewelry, dress, etc plus hair and makeup. And stay the entire weekend at the hotel she was getting married at. All told, costs for the wedding- not including a gift- was well over $2k per bridesmaid. This was mostly amongst college age women in a poor/middle class area. She also had three separate engagement parties/bridal showers.

Final straw for me was when she demanded to see my toast a month prior so she could edit it. She ended up rewriting it totally.

I skipped the wedding totally and ended our friendship. They did end up getting married and 6+ years later he seems absolutely miserable.”

—hotel_girl985

14. “She Wanted to Be the Only Blonde”

“Bride was blonde. All bridesmaids except for me were brunette. She asked me to dye my hair brown for the wedding because she, “wanted to be the only blonde.” I suggested that instead I just give up my bridesmaid spot. Thankful to this day since I heard the dresses and bachelorette party cost all the other girls more money than I make in a month.”

— kmmurky

13. She Wanted All the Attention

“I was almost in a bridezilla wedding… I had an ectopic pregnancy (baby attached to my tube, which then burst, and I almost bleed to death)..

She got engaged shortly following my ectopic. When she asked me to be her bridesmaid , she told me that I would be required to wait to try to have another baby until after her wedding in 1.5 years… not because there would be a small child at the wedding, not even because she didn’t want me fat at her wedding.. but because if I lost another child, it would take away from her engagement and wedding.. I was so shocked I just declined and have never spoken to her since. UPDATE: My cousin is on Reddit! She wrote me a scathing email about how mean everyone was to her, and I needed to update this and tell everyone it was her second wedding and she wanted it to be special this around.

Also I needed to defend her… instead Hi Jessica! Keep sending this to Grandma, I really don’t care! ?”

— MommaBearJam

12. Why Are People Like This?

“Bridesmaid to a bridezilla here.

The bride spent a lot of time crying and carrying on whenever she didn’t get her way because “it was her wedding and we should all do exactly what she wanted.” Which is not to say we didn’t- we sure did. She wanted everyone to justify her irrational and horrible behavior because it was all about her. She didn’t enjoy it much when I told her she was wrong for kicking someone out of her bridal party , terminating the friendship, and pitching a fit because a girl couldn’t make bridesmaid dress shopping because she was sick and had to go to the hospital.

This is also coming from the same woman who got angry and didn’t speak to me for months because I didn’t come see her to congratulate her on her pregnancy when I was home on furlough for a week at Christmas.”

—caryatidonvacation

11. Some People Don’t Recognize Gifts When They Get Them…

“My wife’s best friend is a florist by trade, gifted her services to decorate her friends wedding. (Big cost savings)

Wedding goes as planned all is good. Afterwards Bride & Brides mom get pissy at florist friend who didn’t give a gift in the wedding card, “didn’t even cover her/husband’s plate” Let’s conveniently forget the $1000 in floral products gifted to the wedding, it’s a rift that never healed between them since.”

—Hard_at_it

10. Read the Room, Bridezilla!

“My dad had the audacity to die 6 weeks before the wedding, and she couldn’t understand why that superseded her wedding details for me.

I met my husband at her wedding, haven’t spoken to her since.”

—J-squire

9. Two Plane Flights Are Expensive

“I couldn’t attend my friend’s last minute destination wedding because I had to visit my dad out of state to handle hospice arrangements- he was dying of cancer.

She threw an absolute hissy fit, attempting to guilt trip me because I couldn’t afford to make two plane flights.

That was the end of our friendship.”

—theuncannyvalleys

8. She Was Worried Glassed Ruined the Aesthetics

“My ex best friend was a trip. This story is just one of the many, many reasons i no longer speak to her.

She tried to make me and another bridesmaid walk down her outdoor, uneven, tulle-covered aisle WITHOUT GLASSES. She told us the morning of the event, so we didn’t have any time to get contacts or anything. She threw a near-hysterics fit because she was convinced that we would “ruin the aesthetic of her wedding”. I told her that she would have a single groomsman walking that aisle if she made me walk without them. She started bawling but her mom was able to get her calmed down enough for her to agree to let us wear our glasses so we could actually make it down the aisle in one piece.

Her mom essentially said that she’s more skinny and beautiful than either of us and no one would be glancing at her bridesmaids anyways because we aren’t important.”

—SuitcaseOfSparks

7. He Hogged Attention By Getting a Heart Attack

“Not a bridesmaid, but my mom was a wedding photographer for many years.

Long story short, the father of the bride had a heart attack and as he was being carried out on the stretcher the sobbing bride yells, “How could you ruin my wedding like this?!!!?””

—remberzz

6. This Deserved the Friend Break-Up

“It was a best friend of mine who was very frugal, so I figured she was going to have a reasonable wedding and bachelorette party.

I had shared my monetary concerns with her too, that I worked and went to school and couldn’t take off much time. She didn’t have that many friends so It was only me and one other girl as bridesmaids. She asked us to hand-make ALL her decorations for the wedding (I put in 15 hours a week hand making decorations, all outside of working and going to school full time). Then she planned a week long bachelorette party out of town, also asking us to foot the bill, not to mention our dresses which I wanted to find something affordable (but she picked designer matching dresses that we had to pay for…never worn It again, been trying to sell It online). I spent nearly 1k on the whole ordeal, not to mention I did her hair and makeup for free for the wedding. I just felt largely taken advantage of and unappreciated.

We are no longer friends because we ended up working together (after the wedding) and she tried to screw me over at work. It all makes me very reluctant to agree to be in someone’s wedding again, even someone I thought would be considerate of everyone else’s budget and time.”

—SpectralShifter

5. She Lied About Everything

“The short story is that she lied.

She lied to the venue about the number of guests that were attending. Effectively packing us like sardines.

She lied about having a “day of” staff. That meant that all the dates of the bridesmaids spent the day hanging flowers, running to get kegs and waters, pouring the champagne for guests, setting up the entire venue the day before.

She lied to the hair and make up personnel about the number of people who were obtaining services in order to get them to come to the site. This forced guests to get hair and make up done in order for “the bride not to have to be charged extra”.

She lied to the catering about the number of guests, this caused them to run out of food and alcohol.

All in all, I think her lies saved her $1500, but cost her close friendships as her attitude toward the whole situation was indignation instead of being apologetic.”

—yelloworchid

4. This Friend Wasn’t Invited Because of Her Weight

“I didn’t make it to the wedding.

I was best friends with the woman, literally we did everything together. She assembled her wedding party and didn’t invite me. She threw me my bachelorette, witnessed my marriage, etc. I found out later I wasn’t invited because I was overweight and her mother thought that would limit bridesmaid dress choices and throw the wedding photos ‘off’.

At least I know, dodged a bullet.”

—volcanicpale

3. The Bridezilla Was Also Her Boss!

“My first job out of college, a colleague got engaged and asked three colleagues to be her bridesmaids (in addition to one friend from high school). I had only known her for a matter of months, but I didn’t feel comfortable saying no because she was one of my bosses.

In addition to being in a wedding for someone I barely knew, which is shitty in its own right, there were so many horrible things about this nightmare bridezilla wedding. First, I ended up hosting both her bachelorette AND her shower because no one in her life planned anything, and she showed up to her own shower an hour late, hungover and wearing pajamas when she mandated that everyone dress for a luncheon. She ordered our dresses from Etsy (as opposed to any bridesmaid dress company) and they looked like seafoam green raw silk pillowcases with holes cut for the arms and head. They tied in giant bows in the back and we all looked like literal infants. She wouldn’t let us wear heels with said “dresses” because the groom was kinda short and we all had to buy new flats in a specific shade of gold. She wanted us to wear our hair in a really ugly, extremely complicated updo — and said we would have to pay to have one of the hairstylists do our hair (we refused). The wedding was on a Sunday in an extremely inconvenient and faraway location, and it was not the Sunday of a long weekend. The rehearsal dinner for this SUNDAY wedding was THURSDAY and started at 4 in the afternoon, requiring everyone to leave work in the middle of the day. She forced us to stay at an expensive hotel in the area the night before the wedding for no apparent reason and refused to pay for our hotel room.

Fun times!”

—gabygygax

2. She Told This Bridesmaid to Get a Credit Card

“My best friend just got kicked out of being a bridesmaid because she couldn’t spend the $1500 to go to the bachelorettes party, all the other costs were killing her.

The bride told her to take out a credit card to pay for it. One of our friends made the best comment over the situation, ‘she (the bride) just did you the best favor ever kicking you out of the bridal party’.”

1. And This Always Happens

“Not a bridezilla story, but I was in 3 weddings in the span of one year and one interesting thing I noticed was that there is always one bridesmaid that the bride stops being friends with after the wedding.

You can start to see which bridesmaid it’s gonna be about half way through the engagement.”

—AntiRaz

A lot of weddings are probably quite lovely and fun experiences for all involved. Unfortunately, these events don’t “bring out the bridezilla,” they only seem to make it clear who was already a narcissist.

Have you ever participated in a wedding only to find that the person turned out to be a bridezilla?

People Who Tried to Groom Their Pets…and Failed

In our heads, a lot of us probably think we’d do a perfectly fine job grooming our own pets.

How hard can it be, right?

Well, things aren’t always as they appear, as you can probably imagine. In fact, it’s MUCH harder than it looks.

All these people tried to give their pets haircuts and they learned the hard way that maybe they aren’t cut out for careers as pet groomers.

Let’s see what kind of damage they did…

1. They desperately need help.

Is that even a dog?

2. You gave it your best shot.

Now, give me back my beer.

Groomer closed due to Covid19. Wife told me to trim the dog. Hold my beer. from aww

3. He looks incredibly annoyed.

What did you do to him?

4. I would sleep with one eye open tonight.

He’s planning sweet, sweet revenge.

5. It’ll grow back…eventually.

He doesn’t seem to mind, though…

6. This is not good…not good at all…

Doesn’t get much worse than this.

7. A total disaster.

You better beg for forgiveness.

8. Frankly, that is hard to look at.

But we all got a laugh out of it.

9. Two more bad examples.

The second dog looks REALLY annoyed.

10. The look of distrust.

What have you DONE?

11. Doesn’t even look like the same dog.

What did you do to your pooch?

12. And he’s howling about it!

He can’t even deal with it right now.

14. Looks like this dog is wearing a cheap fur coat.

And he seems a bit perplexed by the whole thing…

Yowza…those were…not good.

In fact, we can probably just say they were straight-up FAILS.

But they sure entertained us!

15 Times People Stumbled Onto Very Odd Things in Thrift Stores

I have friends who really like to go to thrift stores, yard sales, and garage sales. I like to go once in a while, but I will say it’s fun sometimes because you will come across all kinds of super weird stuff that you’d otherwise never see in your whole life.

But that’s the excitement of it!

And these folks definitely found a whole lot of weirdness at their local thrift stores. Let’s take a look at these treasures.

Happy hunting!

1. I can picture this right above the mantle.

It’s a good conversation piece.

2. Thanks a lot, God…

Didn’t see that one coming.

3. Just use the record cover as a shopping list.

That’s pretty funny, I must say.

4. Come see our beautiful city!

And take in all it has to offer!

It’s time to discover the truth.

All kinds of weird finds in there!

Hilarious Signs You Might Have Missed on ‘The Simpsons’

I love The Simpsons.

The iconic TV show has been going strong for over 30 years now and it’s showing no signs of slowing down.

And speaking of SIGNS (see what I did there?), one of the many hilarious parts of the show is the various signs you see in episodes of The Simpsons.

Sometimes, you have to look fast so you can spot them, but they’re always looming around Springfield and they are always funny.

Here are 13 great signs from the show.

1. Ahhh, the old nuclear power plant.

You just know that Mr. Burns is always tied up in lawsuits.

2. Throwing some shade at a specific Canadian city.

Sorry, all you Winnipeggers.

I’m sure some folks won’t like this one.

A New York Teen Goes Viral on TikTok for Tutoring Math

A high school junior named Alexis Loveraz could be considered a genius in math and sciences. His huge following on TikTok certainly thinks so.

The 16-year-old has been posting videos there for weeks, breaking down algebra, geometry, chemistry and SAT prep questions for his peers. Now, with so many students trying to figure this stuff out while they are continuing their education on-line, his videos are more popular than ever.

He currently has about 331,000 followers and more than 3.4 million likes.

@alexis_loveraz

He’s even been called the “TikTok Tutor,” according to CBS New York.

He told the station,

“I was, like, really shocked. Things that they probably forgot like before COVID-19, this is like a refresher of what I’m, like, giving them out.

It’s really cool because they understand it even better the way I’m explaining it to them.”

Many of his viewers tell him they learn more from him than their teachers.

Loveaz  says he posted the tutorials after encouragement from his friends. People all over the world have already discovered his Google Classrooms. Now students from as far away as Australia, Philippines and Singapore gather virtually to study.

Loveraz told Business Insider,

“I think people have to depend on YouTube videos and TikToks to learn even more.”

And, of course, mom Likmilian Hiciano is surprised at her son’s online tutoring success–and very proud.

What do you think of this kid using TikTok to tutor math? Pretty genius or REALLY genius?

There’s really nothing negative about this story. It’s great. Tell us it’s great in the comments. ?

A World War II Vet Who Raised Millions of Dollars for Health Care Workers Receives 135,000 Birthday Cards

Captain Tom Moore is beloved in the UK after he raised £29 million for the country’s National Health Service (NHS). He was shown just how much his dedication was appreciated by the public when he received 135,000 birthday cards for his 100th birthday.

Captain Moore’s fundraiser involved the World War II veteran making 100 laps of his garden as he approached his big day. The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge, along with Prime Minister Boris Johnson, expressed their own good wishes and gratitude for the captain’s work.

The original goal of the fundraiser was £1,000 for NHS Charities Together which is an umbrella for charities that aid COVID-19 health care workers and volunteers. Incredibly, his mission went viral and he actually raised close to a whopping £30 million.

The cards for Captain Morgan’s birthday filled the assembly hall of his 16-year old grandson Benjie’s school. Benjie had asked his Bedford School if they would house the cards because the local post office couldn’t handle them all.

Benjie told Sky News:

The volume of cards that have been sent to granddad is just astonishing. So many of the cards are truly heartfelt with thousands from young children who have taken the time to use their artistic talent and write a personal message. It means a lot to granddad as well as us as a family. We are hugely proud of how the nation has taken granddad to its heart. Words can’t express how much I idolise him.

Bedford School used 150 volunteers for 1,750 hours to assemble all the cards so that Captain Moore could see them all. He was overjoyed to find another £60,000 inside the cards to add to his fundraiser.

Captain Moore’s birthday was April 30, and it looks like it was truly an amazing day.

Happy birthday, Captain Moore! We hope you had a great day!
