Our initial idea for this listicle's title was "Don't overthink about the title, Don't overthink about the title." We thought it was clever, funny, and a little bit meta. But then we realized it might not be super clear what this listicle was actually about. So, we tried changing it to "We tried not to overthink about the title of this listicle, but we did it anyway." It felt like a lesser version of our original idea and still didn’t really say what the listicle was about. After some more brai…

I have always been the "Tech guy" in my family. Not because I actually know what I’m doing or have any professional IT experience—far from it. I just like computers, which is apparently enough to qualify me as the resident tech expert. Somehow, simply being able to switch the HDMI input and knowing how to restart a modem makes me a technological genius in my family's eyes. Being the "Tech guy" means I’ve had to deal with some pretty hair-raising tech support nightmares. My aunt thought her comp…

Yay, science! We find it amazing how our interest in science began as soon as we finished school. When we were students, science was one of those subjects we tried to avoid at all costs. It was hard and boring and the tests were damaging our overall grades. To be honest, we kind of hated science. Then we graduated and found out that the problem wasn't science - it was science teachers . Science is actually fascinating; It's knowledge in its purest form. You look around you at the world and try…

There’s something oddly poetic about seeing humanity’s creations taken over by nature . It’s like Mother Earth casually saying, “Nice try, but I’ll take it from here.” We build cities, roads, and skyscrapers, thinking they’ll stand forever, only for vines, moss, and trees to slowly creep in and remind us who’s really in charge. These photos showcase the fascinating beauty of man-made structures being reclaimed by the natural world. From abandoned theme parks and forgotten trains to entire villa…

Have you tried switching your sense of humor off and then on again?

You know that moment when you try your absolute best to cook something and think, "Well, it’s not exactly a masterpiece, but it’s edible"? That’s kind of how I approach life in general. It’s not perfect, but it’s holding together… mostly. Do I eat vegetables every day? Not unless French fries count. Do I work out regularly? Sure, if you consider walking to the fridge “cardio.” Do I have a 5-year plan? No, but I did remember to pay my internet bill this month, so we’re calling that a win. To eve…

We just bought a new car , and I'm still riding that new car high. Everything about it is fresh and exciting. There's even still a faint trace of that new car smell, and I'm constantly looking for excuses to take it out for a spin ("Oh look, the milk carton is almost halfway empty—better go to the store to get another one"). Our old car, in contrast, had reached the "I'm annoyed with everything about this piece of junk " phase. Don't get me wrong—there was absolutely nothing wrong with the car,…

The original idea for a title for this listicle was " Don't overthink about the title, Don't overthink about the title " Which we found funny and witty but then we realized not everyone will understand what this listicle is about, so we changed it to "We tried not to overthink about the title to this listicle but we did it anyway" But we thought it was just a lesser version of the original idea and it still didn't convey what this listicle was about. So then we changed it to "This listicle was…

Whatch'a looking at?

A few years ago I had an idea for a perpetual motion device that I was convinced would actually work. Now, I know that the first rule of thermodynamics doesn't allow "Free" energy and I know every perpetual motion device in history was a hoax but I couldn't find an explanation WHY my device wouldn't work. It's a very simple device - Imagine a looped rope with empty barrels attached to it, One side of the loop is submerged vertically in water and the other side is outside of the water. The barre…

We love it when smart people invent smart things to make everyone's lives better. If you think about it, it only takes one person to invent something that can change the lives of countless people throughout history. Think of the person who invented the refrigerator; one brilliant idea to use compressed gas to cool air inside a container, and now we can all store food for longer periods of time. Well, Yup That Exists on Twitter is full of clever and quirky inventions just like that, shared daily…

You know that moment when you clean your house and think, "Welp, that's the best I can make it look. It's not much, but at least it looks acceptable "? Well, for some people (like me), it's the same for life in general—it's not much, but at least it looks acceptable at a glance. Am I good at my job? No, but they haven't fired me. Am I close to getting married? No, but I did go on a date six months ago. Am I able to do my taxes on my own? No, but at least I'm not in jail! (Yet. ) So, to all the…
