Even the most modern cities lack little things that could make life much easier. Like a button that keeps the green light on longer at a cross walk or markings on roads for ideal parking. After taking a look at the things on this list, you’ll definitely start hoping to see them wherever you go.

It is the very color that reflects your character.”

Some people say that understanding the inner workings of a woman is “terra incognita”, otherwise known as unknown territory. Of course, women can be full of mystery and contradictions, but perhaps it wouldn’t be that way if a man were more attentive and observant of her needs and wants. Believe us, you don’t have to read minds like Mel Gibson did in the film, “What Women Want”. Understanding your partner just takes a little common sense.

The more often you wash your hair, the faster it becomes greasy. You can follow Kim Kardashian’s advice and wash your hair once every 5 days, “We start with a bouffant on the first day. On the second day, my stylist creates a kind of a careless hairstyle. On the third day, he straightens my hair. On the fourth day, my hair is pulled back in a ponytail and on the fifth day, I wash it.” But stylists have other tricks and secrets.

In this article, we’ll explain what could be causing your weight loss plateau.

A picture says a thousand words — especially if it captures the perfect moment. These pictures below prove that it only takes a quick second to achieve epic fail status.

Omario Brunelleschi, a British painter living in Italy, has been sharing his illustrations depicting all the different stages of being in love on his social accounts for the last 2 years. What’s awesome about the artist’s work, are his accompanying stories about what inspired him to create the drawings.

Our walk is a complicated process: each step involves our nervous system and skeletal system, and it’s so automatic, we even don’t notice it. There are superstitions that claim that one’s walk can reveal a lot of things about a person. There are 7 quirks that could indicate something more serious is going on, and they’re even confirmed by scientific research.

Illustrator Erez Zadok created a series of pictures with his pet Joya. In his comics, he shows what it looks like to be the proud owner of a dog and draws delightful and exciting moments of their everyday life.

There’s not a single disease that’s as mysterious as schizophrenia. And unfortunately, it causes a lot of really wild misconceptions. With the following article, we’re going to help you find the truth. It’s an interesting disease and these misconceptions make the lives of the people who suffer from it, much harder. It gets in the way of them becoming socialized and causes them to be ashamed of their disease.

Everybody makes mistakes and that’s okay. But when designers or architects make them, they also create something that is incredibly funny.

As Winston Churchill said, “Success is the ability to move from failure to failure not losing enthusiasm.”

Whether it’s long workday in the office, an evening sitting in front of the TV or hours playing a computer game — it’s easy to find yourself sitting down for most of the day.

Perhaps after reading this article you’ll try to get out of your chair more and strive to be a little more active every day.

Wow, time flies! After watching our favorite film franchises over the years, it’s easy to get used to the way the characters look from beginning to end (unless it has been actual decades between the different film installments). If you take time to compare how the characters look in the first and the last movie of a franchise, you’ll be quite surprised how much they’ve changed.

Lots of things can happen within 24 hours — even the destruction of an entire city. Looking at these pictures, it’s hard to believe that such strong concrete streets and metal buildings could be washed away, smashed and crumbled in the blink of an eye.

Sorting out old stuff doesn’t always have to be boring. For example, George and Betty Davis were cleaning their attic and found a man-shaped figure which was created by Faberge and ordered by Nicholas II of Russia. Later, this figure was sold at an auction for $5.2 million. Of course, not every person’s attic hides some treasure but it is possible to find a lot of other things which may not be as expensive, but quite interesting!

There are some things in Japan that are really shocking. Before you go to Japan, make sure that you are not overweight, that you carry your trash with you, and remember that only some people are allowed to swim in pools.

There are some things that need immediate explanation to help us figure out exactly what’s going on.

Pretty much everything can be ordered online and delivered to our doorsteps. Already in 2012, at its peak, Amazon was selling 306 items per second. Some of these items are so hilarious that it is hard to imagine the person ordering them. Yet, judging by the ratings, these people exist.

Becoming a millionaire is not just some unrealistic dream. The statistics show that more than half of millionaires are self-made. The lessons that we can gain from them can’t guarantee us a millionaire status, but it’s totally worth listening to.

Puns are an ancient practice. There is actual historical evidence of ancient people making puns centuries ago, all over the world. Based on this evidence, we’ve had more than enough time to develop our skills, but life itself is still the greatest prankster.

Indian illustrator Karan Gupta lives in Delhi with his girlfriend and creates wonderful illustrations showing different situations from their relationship. People enjoy the simplicity and humorous approach to his drawings, which many of us can relate to. According to Karan’s words “every day is an adventure when your partner is just as weird.”

We’re used to thinking we are masters of our own minds and bodies — after all, who else, if not us? However, our mind is an intricate and complex thing whose many secrets have yet to be discovered. And what’s more, it can manipulate us when we least expect it. For example, if we’re hesitant about starting a new and unfamiliar job, the good news is, this means we’re more likely to succeed.

The Internet is full of great ideas. Many people see something and think they can do better even though they have no idea what they’re doing. In the end, this results in some very funny “masterpieces” which are kind of bizarre.

Skin can develop pigment spots thanks to many factors including ultraviolet rays, age-related changes, chronic kidney and liver diseases, acne after-effects, pregnancy, skin diseases (eczema, dermatitis), vitamin imbalance, and gastrointestinal tract diseases.

But don’t fret because we have prepared a handful of great beauty recipes with foods you can find right in your very own kitchen.

Queen Elizabeth II, the longest reigning monarch of the UK, is turning 92 years old this year.

People say that the sky is the limit for someone who’s drunk. However, we all know about the consequences of such careless bravery. On the other hand, drunk people may be even cooler in a certain way — as an infinite source of curious and funny situations.

Enlarged pores often appear on the forehead, nose and chin. They spoil your appearance and can prompt you to apply a copious layer of powder and foundation. But it’s better to deal with this problem in other ways. The most common reason for their appearance is excessive activity in the sebaceous glands. With a fatty skin type, a large amount of sebum is released. As a result, the pores are enlarged. If we don’t pay attention to this problem in good time, we may get acne.

Odd and eccentric people make this world brighter. For example, John Chapman, an American drifter who was known as Johnny Appleseed, wandered around the country for 40 years planting apple trees on 160 sq m of land. He wasn’t just throwing seeds on the ground — he took care of the trees. He wore a sack instead of a shirt and a cooking pot instead of a hat to cook food for himself. Over the course of time, he became a legendary character. Just as other characters from our collection, he wasn’t a fan of rules and expectations and wasn’t afraid to seem a bit ridiculous.

The journey through pregnacy can be hard for women. Their bodies are changing and their hormones are out of control.

A well-known artist from Toulouse known as Dran, creates paintings, illustrations and street graffiti based on the modern problems of our world. His works are easy to understand with little need for explanation. Using dark humor, Dran highlights the deep and sometimes upsetting things that happen around us every day.

The diseases that women can experience can be sneaky — their symptoms are often hard to distinguish from the pain they get before a period. But you can get the upper hand if you visit a doctor as soon as you notice certain worrying signs which you should learn to recognize. For example, people who are diagnosed with breast cancer at an early stage survive in more than 90% of cases.

It’s often said that whilst you always feel safe with mom, it’s very interesting to spend time with dad. Perhaps, it’s because many men remain children at heart throughout their lives, and so they like goofing around — just like the guys in this compilation.

“Apart from higher education, one should have at least average quick-wittedness.” It’s difficult to argue with this statement. People from this article are on a completely different level of creative thinking: they are real gurus of resourcefulness and inventiveness. It seems like we only have to step aside and gaze in awe.

We’re all guilty of twiddling our thumbs at work from time to time, but we usually don’t let our laziness affect our performance.

If biology teachers told their students about these animals and their crazy habits, no one would ever skip class again.

Scientists claim that people with a good sense of humor have a higher IQ. Even Albert Einstein said that he would not have such outstanding intellectual abilities without his sense of humor. Of course, ingenious jokes are a rare thing, and they’re not something people can come up with every day. Nevertheless, there are people who are able to respond brilliantly even to simple situations.

From time to time, each of us ends up taking unsuccessful photos, such as ones where we have half-closed eyes or a strange grimace. But even when we actually look great in the frame, there’s always the possibility that something strange and funny is happening in the background. And then the most trivial shot turns into a masterpiece.
