The Dating Game

The whole dating game has changed, and a lot of it now takes place in the online world on apps like Tinder or Bumble. You can meet a variety of people, and in large quantities, which can increase your chances of meeting a great person to be your soulmate.

Work Exhaustion

Being an adult is hard and every now and then when we get home from work many adults just want to relax. Many of us who work long hours know the struggle is real no matter what age you are.

Driving Struggles

It’s funny how even the smallest pothole makes us feel like we are professional drivers fleeing the police. No matter who you are you brace like hitting that pothole is going to be a huge accident instead of a little bump.

Til Death Do Us Part

The institution of marriage is an ancient one. It is a contract between two people who have decided to spend the rest of their lives together. You promise to love and cherish your partner in sickness and in health.

ADVERTISEMENT

Essentially, you promise to be with them until they eventually pass away. You have to be with the person through all of their ups and downs, which can be a real test of a relationship’s mettle. This meme is not wrong, though, and you are with the person until death. Hopefully, anyone who is married does manage to keep things fresh and continue to go on dates with one another.

Street Art

Many street artists dream of being the next Banksy. However, finding a political stance or message that you can really get behind is not the easiest thing to do.

This person had a few street artists in their hometown who simply could not figure out how to be creative.
