In 1990, over 40,000 Nike shoes fell overboard out of a shipping container. This event was called the “Great Shoe Spill of 1990”. Due to the shoes’ unique serial numbers, the spill has aided oceanographers in their studies of ocean currents. The shoes are still being discovered daily in distant locations.

Nothing can prepare you for what it’s like to be a parent. You think you’re ready, that you can handle it, and while the latter will turn out to be true, the former is not.
Seriously, you are not ready.
These 11 dads were surely in that same boat with no paddle, but somewhere along the way, they’ve managed to shore up the holes.
If you need a drink, any one will do.
Being a parent means one day you look down to find yourself salting the rim of a plastic Star Wars tumbler to make a margarita

Every last one of us is guilty of sending a text to the wrong person on occasion. I’m personally so paranoid about it that I’ll often double check two and three times (especially if I’m talking about someone, obvs), but sending something awkward to my parents has not, thankfully, ever happened.
These 11 parents no doubt wish it hadn’t happened to them, but well…it’s too late for that.
Are drugs involved? #momquestion
I aspire to be this cool a Mom (even if she probably Googled it).
Also there are now bars on your window.
I am dying for this kid.
You know it will make you feel better.
Ill-timed, but still funny.
Thank goodness for small favors, at least.
Your mom wasn’t just born yesterday, though.
Twisting herself into a pretzel won’t be good for her back.
But I mean…you don’t talk about someone’s Mama.
I wouldn’t mind getting this text, honestly.
The awkward is so unbelievably strong with these omg.

I was at my sister’s house recently and she decided to put her two cats, Mac and Leo, out on her screened-in porch while we ate dinner because she knew they’d likely jump up on her kitchen counter and try to eat some of the food that was leftover.
While Mac snoozed on a chair in the sunshine, Leo pawed furiously at the door with a look of panic in his eyes because he’d been banished to the porch for about 45 minutes. He didn’t stop crying loudly and scratching for the ENTIRE MEAL.
What’s my point, you ask?
It’s that cats are incredibly DRAMATIC.
And if you have a cat, you already know that, right?
Here are some hilarious photos of cats being cats…and by that, I mean being total drama queens.
Enjoy these photos!
But he might be a little bit emotional for the job…
I’m extremely blessed to have my own tiny lifeguard. Except, instead of using a whistle or attempting to save me. He screams at me in terror… the entire time. from Catswhoyell

It’s gonna be okay!
My cat always looks like he has anxiety. Yes, he always looks like this. from funny
What a drama queen.
Melvin demanded a walk. Then this happened. I had to carry him home. (He’s fine, he’s just a drama queen.) from cats
Don’t let it happen again.
We’re all feeling a little bit stuck.

The jury is still out on that one…
My sister took her cat for a walk last fall. We still don’t know if he was enjoying himself… from funny
And why are you freaking out in my yard?

When you live with someone, that’s when you realize that everyone’s daily rituals are so unique…and some of them could even be considered weird.
This person could either be a roommate or a significant other, but either way you’re now plugged into another human being’s routine..for better or for worse.
But hey, to each their own, right?
We’re all weird in our own ways and, even if you think you aren’t, you’re weird too. And so am I!
That’s why this Twitter thread about peoples’ unique daily rituals is a lot of fun to read. Let’s take a look!
That was a close call.
every time our satnav says “bear left” or “bear right” my boyfriend and I will look around frantically going “there’s a bear?!?!”. Been doing that for 6 years, don’t think it’s going to get old.

Every day, dog and I leave for our walk through the back door. Cat wakes up then follows through the cat flap. I have to let her back in through the front door or she follows us on our walk.

A nice ritual.
Every day, on my way to bed, I head into the 4yo’s bedroom and rotate him (he will be upside down and on top of the covers) while removing all the pieces of the Lego policevan that he’s gone to sleep cuddling. Rebuilding it and placing it on his bedside table

All the animals are getting involved.
Every time our cat or dog makes a noise we say ‘they didn’t!?’ If they ‘reply’ we follow up with ‘they never!?’ and ‘what, today!?’ and so on, like they’re telling us an amazing story. This has now escalated to any animal we come across. Pets, cows, zoo animals…

As 2020 grinds on, one thing we can all seem to agree on is that it’s been UGLY. And SAD. Not to mention very difficult for a lot of people out there.
But did we see it coming?
Some folks sure seem to think so, and here’s the proof: the “2020 as Told By” memes.
It looks like movies and TV shows might’ve had a bit of impressive foresight into how crazy this year was going to be.
So maybe it would do us all a lot of good to pay close attention to movies and TV shows so we can predict what pitfalls we’ll experience in 2021.
Enjoy these memes…and try to stay positive!

People can be pretty lazy – most of us, anyway. That said, we typically will try to do our best on the days we clock in for a paycheck.
Sometimes, though, we fail. For one reason or another, we can’t get it done that day.
Even though it happens to the best of us, these 13 people should still be ashamed of themselves.
Maybe it’s a one-of-a-kind item!
So maybe this isn’t a mistake, but is actually profound/accurate?
Somebody is a rebel.
Everyone needs somebody to love them.
Those two are just begging to get together.
It’s sort of chilling, no?
And then it’s too late; it will haunt you forever.
And most of us read left to right.
On the inside, anyway.
That will ruin your day, friends.
Did a really talented 3yo paint this?
