You and your spouse may not see eye to eye on which way the toilet paper roll should hang, but you will definitely agree that these marriage memes are friggin' hilarious.
Whether you were afraid of the dark , the boogeyman, or both as a child, there's probably a good chance you also had a very specific, unique fear that kept you up at night. For example, I was afraid that the character of E.T. that I saw in my coloring books would come to life at night and eat me. Very chill.
Now that you're older you've probably discovered real things to be afraid of, like taxes and men at bars. But it's fun to think back on what irrational things used to scare you back in the day. Ah, simpler times!
Twitter user @DanaSchwartzzz shared what she was most afraid of as a kid and asked her followers to play along. The results were terrifyingly hilarious.
1. @erica_rosie was not ready for the invention of cloning.
2. @MaddiB_ was not a fan of friendly ghosts.
3. @jeffvandermeer had a bleak outlook on things.
4. @funnygirljax took matters into her own hands.
5. This is v specific, @male_hawkeye .
6. @alinthearchives had to take the stairs.
7. @GabeCripe must have spent a lot of times at crosswalks.
8. Are you okay, @GianmarcoSoresi ?
9. @WriterKirt had an A+ teacher.
10. @racheleklein knew how to evade a witch.
11. @Gingerhazing was on the lookout for a Cruella Deville.
12. @derekjlawrence was a boy without a ploy.
13. @tswimmer11 was a victim of the era of quicksand in cartoons.
14. @JellicleKitten's amount of anxiety is v relatable.
15. @LCLuckiest and I had a lot in common.
A fun thread kicked off by NPR's Sam Sanders had people sharing their strangest childhood eating habits, and they sound pretty delicious.
The culinary masterpieces sound like stoned innovations by stoners, which makes you wonder—*hits blunt*—what is getting high but a retreat to childhood, man?
Prepare to be entertained—and confusingly hungry.
As a child, my brother would eat sticks of butter out of the fridge, under cover of night. We were strange.

Billy Ray Cyrus got an earful from critics after he tweeted a photo of his wife next to what appears to be a shit ton of marijuana. Casual.
People weren't upset about the content of the photo, but rather the context. Seeing as Cyrus is a white, wealthy, famous man, he is able to post this photo without consequence. People were quick to point out the double standard here, and how people of color are serving time in jail for marijuana possession at this very moment.
The argument here is that Billy Ray Cryus is only able to flaunt this pic on the internet because he has white privilege. Or, to put it in laymen's terms: Yo, Billy Ray...your white privilege is showing, bro.
Like, we get it Billy, you're chill as hell and not like the other dads. You're a cool dad.
Yay, another hellish weekday morning! These randomly hilarious memes will give you a reason to laugh, even though it's technically way too early for joy.
In case you've been sleeping under a very peaceful rock, far away from Instagram and Twitter, you should know that Tristan Thompson and Khloe Kardashian have officially broken up.
While the couple has managed to stick together after a very rough patch, aka Thompson cheating on Khloe right before she gave birth to True, it appears this breakup is final and forever.
The latest and final break up is coming on the heels of news that Thompson allegedly cheated on Khloe with Jordyn Woods, Kylie Jenner's BFF since childhood.
The Instagram account Hollywood Unlocked shared one of their writers was at Thompson's house for a gathering this weekend and witnessed the NBA player cozying up with Woods. The account posted a video detailing the whole ordeal, and how Thompson removed everyone's phones at his house before cozying up with Woods.
While Woods herself has yet to weigh in on the speculation, both Khoe and her BFF Malika Haqq commented on the video, confirming it from their end.
Shortly after the rumors hit the internet, Thompson tweeted that it was fake news but quickly removed his tweet.
Following the breakup, Khloe's Instagram presence has been pretty cryptic beyond her comments on the Hollywood Unlocked video.
She also posted a handful of sad but vague Instagram stories that seem to be reacting to the situation.
One of them seems to overtly reference how Woods has been a friend of the family long enough to be family, and so, if the rumors are true this is a full-on betrayal.
These are the Instagram stories of someone going through it.
She even posted a story apologizing for the times she may have been the toxic one at play.
At the time of writing this, neither Woods or Kylie have weighed in on the situation. However, the rest of the internet has naturally decided to. Some people are eager to swoop in and replace Woods as a Kardashian family friend, while others feel schadenfreude due to Khloe's past dating patterns.
It seems like there is a lot yet to unfold with this whole messy and painful situation, hopefully, Khloe is still able to get some space from all the noise.
Whether or not you enjoy listening to her music, we can all agree that Cardi B is one of the most fascinating people currently roaming the planet, as she keeps us posted on every thought that runs through her head, be it about the latest government shutdown or her freshly "lasered vagina."
The website BallerAlert shared a video of Cardi and the father of her daughter, Offset, in the waiting room as Cardi prepared to get her pubes zapped off.
Offset, with the chill demeanor of a man who isn't expected by society to get his pubes laughed off, enjoyed some pizza and the thought of Cardi "all smooth."
Offset and Cardi split in December after TMZ reported that O-set had been cheating.
While a fan commented on BallerAlert's video hoping to tell Cardi that not even a freshly smooth vagina will stop a cheater from cheating, she probably didn't expect the rapper herself to clap back.
Cardi explained that her choice to have her vagina be forever hairless isn't about men, it's about her vagina.
"I just think is not going to make me feel like I have a mink coat down there nothing to do with a man Goddamn!" she replied.
You're so vain, you probably think Cardi B getting hair permanently zapped from her vagina is about Offset.
Roughly four months after announcing their engagement, Lady Gaga and her ex-fiance Christian Carino have officially ended their relationship.
In a statement to People, Gaga's rep shared "It just didn’t work out. Relationships sometimes end,” before adding that the pair technically split “a bit ago.” “There’s no long dramatic story," they said.
While the rep didn't explicitly say when Carino and Gaga went their separate ways, fans started speculating about the split following the Grammys on February 10th, because the singer was no longer wearing her engagement ring.
These breakup speculations only grew when Gaga posted a tattoo inspired by A Star is Born on Valentines Day, rather than a picture with Carino.
Naturally, given their electric chemistry in A Star is Born, and the widely known friendship between Gaga and Bradley Cooper, a lot of fans are hoping the two are secretly dating.
In fact, now that the news of her breakup has hit the internet, people are barreling down on their theories that Cooper and Gaga are a full-fledged item.
Of course, at the time of writing this, neither Cooper nor Gaga have said anything indicating they're a couple. It's all speculation at this point, coupled with their undeniable chemistry both on and off screen.
While the rest of us wait to see how this plays out, and whether Cooper and Gaga will end up living the real life version of their on-screen love, I can't imagine any of this is easy for Carino. Hopefully, regardless of what is going on with Gaga and Cooper, Carino is able to grieve the relationship in relative peace.
There's nothing better than a well-planned, well-executed long game prank.
Whether it's a lie you've been supporting for years, a slow burn trick or a riff on an inside joke, watching your friends and family fall for an April Fool's prank is one the greatest joys in this world. While Ashton Kutcher did nail it in his Punk'd phase, you don't always need hidden cameras for a good prank. I still have friends that believe my dad invented Starbucks and I'll never let it go. Yes, I know he's running for president. I'll never confess.
So when a recent Reddit user tried to inspire people to get started on their pranks by asking, "We are now less than 45 days from April Fool's Day. What 'long con' pranks should be started around now?" the internet was eager to join in on the fun. Prepare to get inspired, the seasons of tricks is nigh.
1. Wow, this is amazing, "mesayinghello."
We spent 2 months in Europe 2 summers ago and rented out the house on Airbnb to cover expenses while gone. One of the renters was a film crew that shot a documentary about a local psychopath who killed a few people. The producers needed a home setting where they could interview witnesses and people who knew the guy or victims. There are plenty of interviews of people describing the murders and how evil this person was that clearly show our living room, guest room and kitchen in the background. My wife was not involved in managing the Airbnb listing so while I mentioned the film crew to her 2 years ago she never asked what it was about and I'm sure she has absolutely no idea that this footage exists. I plan on just casually coming across the documentary on April 1st and watch it with her to see her reaction.
2. Classic, "Dankpotatocat."
My great-grandpa got his kids to start cracking hard boiled eggs on their foreheads. Then, on April 1st, he gave my great-uncle a raw egg.
3. Brilliant, "bardolino1999."
A while back I got an app that could send an error message to a computer with customized text.
For a few weeks I would send sporadic messages like "Monitor Error 1003". "Monitor synch error", etc.
On April Fools day I sent the message "Monitor radiation shield has failed, please step back 5 feet"
4. This is horrifying, "Brainsonastick."
Here’s how I convinced a friend his house was haunted.
Rain-x is the stuff you put on your windshield to keep it from fogging up. Instead, use it to write on your friend’s bathroom mirror various “haunting” phrases. They go into the bathroom, lock the door, get in the shower, and come out to find someone has seemingly written on their bathroom mirror while they thought they were alone.
“Get out”, “help me”, something more personal, or whatever you like.
Every time you want to change the message, just use some dish soap and then glass cleaner.
5. This is amazing, "RoloJP."
My friend got me with a glitter bomb one time, which she watched me open in my bedroom, right next to my bed. I still found glitter three years later when I moved apartments. The bitch.
When it happened, I knew she would be wary of a counter attack, so I waited. And I decided not to just wait, but to long con her. I knew she liked candles, so I went for simplicity: I got her a candle that smelled great at first, but eventually burned down to smell awful. Not after an hour, mind you, but after quite a bit of it burned off giving a very pleasant apple pie scent.
Months went by, and I would see it at her place. Burned a little, but not too much. Occasionally I would notice it getting lower, but it was slow going. I got disheartened when I didn't see it any longer, until I noticed that she had moved it to her bedstand, right by where her head would be when she slept.
Aww, so sweet. She liked my gift.
Cut to many more months having passed. Almost two years since I first got her the candle, I get a bunch of angry texts late at night. "You asshole! That fucking candle! It reeks in my bedroom!" My magnum opus had finally been achieved.
It turns out that she had brought her date home that night and put the candle on to set some ambiance. As they're getting hot and heavy, they start to smell what she described as "pure sewage". It took them five minutes to figure out it was the candle and not some sort of sewage backup, then the smell lingered for an hour.
In the end, the guy was a good sport and recognized a quality prank when he sees one, so it didn't ruin anything between them, but to have a long con end that spectacularly was just better than I could have ever hoped for.
6. Nice, "marco262."
Bring hand moisturizer to work, and leave it somewhere like the break room. Conspicuously use it, and convince as many other people to use it as possible.
On April 1st, replace it with a bottle filled with water-based lube.
7. This is commitment, "TheEntWithNoName."
The nameplates at my office job have paper inserts with the cube dweller's name. I am going to print out a bunch of one person's name in smaller fonts, like increments of .25. I'm going to start replacing with smaller fonts each day starting March 1. I know it's not super crazy, but should be fun.
8. Office gold, "PsychYYZ."
Leave an old keyboard on your desk, with the wire pushed down behind your desk. If anyone asks, tell them it wasn't working, so you had yours replaced, but that support will be by to pick it up.
On April 1st, plug it into the computer in the cube beside you. When your co-worker arrives, do random things - hold down the shift key while they type in their password. Lock their screen if they look away for just a moment. Hit 'caps lock' while they're typing an eMail.
I managed to do this to a co-worker for four days before he started losing his shit and pulled out all the wires from his PC except power and network. It was hysterical.
9. I fully support this, "OffAndRunning."
I work with a group of 5-6 guys. I plan on separately swearing each of them to secrecy, then revealing that one of their coworkers is planning a wicked April Fool’s day gag on them and that we should work to plan an even better one against this schemer. If I do it right, I’ll have my coworkers conniving to destroy one another and sit back and watch it all unfold...as long as they don’t catch on.
10. Poor guy, "EastTourist."
Don't know if you can pull this off, but it was of the funnier prank stories I heard on Klick and Klack/Car Talk. Some guys worked with another guy who was obsessed with his car's gas mileage, so the coworkers slowly started adding gas to his tank without the owner knowing it, like they'd add two cups a day for a week, then the next week, they'd add three cups a day, etc. Since the guy was so obsessed, he thought his car was getting better and better gas mileage and was bragging to everyone in the office. Then the guys slowly started to reverse the process, the guy freaked out, everyone laughed.
11. Classic, "cunteater12."
Slowly move your friends desk 1 inch a day or every other day
12. Yikes, "boxster_."
When I was in high school, I brought a bag of garlic flavored jelly beans to school to prank my friends on April Fools. Instead a classmate grabbed them out of my bag during group work (it was a school with under 100 students, so everyone knew I brought extra treats) and I hear some odd shouting from across the room. Said classmates then handed them off to our teacher to try, without saying why, and I unintentionally pranked my entire year.
13. Nice, "IThrowEntireBananas."
More or less long con, but I ordered a roll of "for rectal use only" stickers and I plan on covering all my sisters belongings with them
14. Aw, "caraffa."
One April fools day I got a text from a wrong number. It happens, but he was nice so we kept talking from time to time, his name was jeff. Talked about video games, music, I feel like i made a really great friend. I told all my friends about it. Lasted a few weeks then stopped. Fast forward to the following April fools and jeff texted me. I was like oh shit what's up man! We texted a bit when finally my friends broke down and said dude, jeff has been us the whole time, we just forgot to tell you last year.
15. Amazing, "ImmortalGazelle."
I’ve been secretly learning russian for the past few months, on April fools day I’m just going to speak russian
16. A+, "thechaplinhunter."
I put an ad on Craigslist in new york city looking for a wookie impersonation for a film I was "making" but I listed my friends phone number. In the instructions I wrote if I answer just make the noise and hang up, Ill call you back if it's good enough. If you get my voicemail follow the same procedure.
Long story short I forgot about it for 3 months and one day I was out getting wings with him when he received a call. He slammed his phone down pissed. I asked what was wrong and he proceeded to tell me about how he has been getting weird phone calls and people just making noises and hanging up. I couldn't stop laughing and finally let him know why and he was not as amused.
Let's face it, being a parent is exhausting. Take a break from all of the screaming and cleaning and treat yourself to a laugh with these ridiculously funny parenting memes.
On Tuesday, 85-year-old fashion mogul Karl Lagerfeld passed away in Paris. As with any celebrity death, the tributes immediately started pouring in for the Chanel creative director, who spent decades cultivating a name for himself in the fashion world.
However, not all of the tributes were positive, Lagerfeld had a pretty well-known history of racism, xenophobia, fat-phobia and misogyny. He openly spoke against accepting Syrian refugees, overtly said that fat women are unattractive and "the world doesn't want to see round women," and perpetuated white supremacy both in word and action.
So, despite how recent his death was, a handful of people overtly spoke against the praise of his legacy, one of them was Jameela Jamil, who shared an article decrying the ways Lagerfeld was oppressive.
"I'm glad somebody said it, Even if it is a little soon. A ruthless, fat-phobic misogynist shouldn't be posted all over the internet as a saint gone-too-soon. Talented for sure, but not the best person," Jamil wrote.
As with all problematic people, famous or not, Lagerfeld obviously had those close to him that he treated with care. So, when Jamil posted her admonishment of the designer, the model and personal friend Cara Delevingne chimed in with her grieving perspective.
This resulted in the two women having a mature, respectful discussion where they expressed very different opinions on the man.
It started with Delevingne's plea for Jamil to not call him out so soon after his death.
The discussion continued with Delevingne admitting that she agrees with Jamil's critiques of the fashion world, but doesn't consider Lagerfeld a bad person.
Jamil responded by pointing out that Delevingne is white and thin and conventionally beautiful, thus one of the only demographics Lagerfeld wasn't cruel towards. She also responded with kindness, recognizing that Delevingne's personal grief is valid, while making her points about Lagerfeld's oppressive legacy.
The two ended their conversation in a very respectful manner, with Jamil holding fast to her convictions about calling out oppressors, and Delevingne expressing how grief makes this conversation difficult.
Since it's so rare to witness a respectful and kind conversation about such a sensitive topic, many were impressed with how both women conducted themselves.
It's great to see two powerful women discuss differing opinions in such an adult manner, hopefully it'll influence the rest of us in our online discourse.
The Oscars are on Sunday, February 24th, pitting the director of Dumb and Dumber against the mastermind behind Anchorman: The Legend of Ron Burgundy. The best picture race features multiple queens, more than one white person learning that racism is bad, and musical numbers for every mood (I, for one, will never love again).
Here's what the movie you're rooting for reveals about who you are as a person.
A Star is Born
You unironically bop to "the ass song," and if you ever meet Bradley Cooper, you'll ask, "Why'd you come around me with an ass like that?" You and your partner were Jackson Maine and Ally for Halloween. You know that Ally's last name is Campana. You've shared at least seven "just wanted to take another look at you" memes, and while you scoff at the cheesiness, you wish that somebody would look at you that way.
You've been a Ryan Coogler fan since Fruitvale Station, and have said on multiple occasions that Coogler and Michael B. Jordan are a "modern-day Scorsese and De Niro." You pretended not to be surprised when Black Panther scored a best picture nomination, because you've been bitter about The Dark Knight's snub for over a decade. If you're black, you have a "Wakanda Forever" T-shirt, and if you're white, you've asked all your black friend if you can get one, too.
You're a longtime Spike Lee fan who saw Chi-Raq, even when nobody else did. You mention it every time your mom brings up Green Book, insisting it's a far superior story of civil rights and allyship. For the first hour of the film you agonized over not knowing where you recognized Laura Harrier from, and when it clicked, you yelled "Spider-Man: Homecoming!!!!" in a crowded theater. Watching Topher Grace play David Duke, you couldn't get over the fact that he researched the role years ago by dating Ivanka Trump. You cried at the ending, and you never cry.
Your favorite TV show is Lip Sync Battle. You deliberately didn't click on The Atlantic's article about Bryan Singer's accusers in case it was bad (it's bad). You are a straight woman attracted to Rami Malek's Freddie Mercury, and don't know what to do about it. There's something about men in tight white pants, even after Labor Day.
U make sure that everybody in your life spells the title correctly, with a "u." You've watched every costume drama that's currently streaming at least twice, and still haven't forgiven Downton Abbey for killing [SPOILER REDACTED]. The line "I like it when she puts her tongue inside of me" filled you with glee. Rachel Weisz is straight—and so are you—but you want her to step on your neck and call you a badger. You follow and frequently tweet the Twitter account "The Favourite Out of Context." You were grateful to finally see a Game of Thrones if Cersei was allowed to be gay.
You're a member of The Academy (or the Hollywood Foreign Press Association) who loves to see the story of a man go from Racist to Not Racist, which is just like your journey when you saw Black Panther and loved the special effects.
You studied abroad in Spain, so you didn't even need to read the subtitles. You saw it IN THEATRES goddammit, because if you streamed it on a computer, did you really even see it? You're a longtime Alfonso Cuarón fan, even though the only movie of his you've seen is Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban. It came out a long time ago, so it counts.
You listen to Pod Save America religiously and consider yourself to be a bro who takes politics seriously. Your favorite movies are about men behaving badly who get away with it, and lucky for you, that's all the movies. You remember the Bush era as a series of Saturday Night Live sketches and are glad to finally see one get the movie adaptation it deserves.
Steve Carell has a special place in everyone's heart, especially if you're a fan of "The Office."
If you don't have at least one episode of "The Office" memorized you're either over the age of 105 or you're a humorless, heartless nightmare. Yeah, I said it. This is getting serious.
Steve Carell has had an incredibly impressive career in comedy, television and film, but his undeniable talent on the stage and screen is not what needs to be investigated right now. Instead, the important issue is why it's so difficult to decide whether Steve is everyone's dad, or if Steve is everyone's boyfriend. Why is he so endearing, relatable and seemingly genuine while also being low-key insanely hot? Why does it feel like he raised and nurtured every millennial, yet would also be a very intuitive kisser? These are the questions that need to be asked, because we can't decide!
1. Steve's younger years.
Young Steve Carell and young Stephen Colbert doing this bit called "Waiters who are Nauseated by Food," is essentially a long dad joke, but it's so funny that it's also very hot. Look at those adorable baby faces!
2. "The Office."
Michael Scott on "The Office," sways way more toward a well-meaning dad throughout the show. Between providing support toward Erin, his bad puns, his love of "Sandals: Jamaica," or his burning desire to be a family man, it's almost a no-brainer that Steve is all of our dads. However, what about that time he proposed to Holly? There are candles, there's an impassioned speech, it rains inside the building and IT'S HOT.
3. His entire vibe in "Crazy, Stupid, Love."
In case you haven't seen it, "Crazy, Stupid, Love" is a movie about Ryan Gosling being a womanizer and teaching Steve Carell how to be one too. For most of the movie, Carell is our goofy dad. Then again, though, watching him punch Gosling in the face to defend his family? Seeing him in designer suits? That might make him our boyfriend.
4. He's aging like a silver fox.
Dad bod? Not for Carell. He's aging so gracefully that they definitely would've written him into "Mad Men" if that show was still going. (There's an entire Reddit thread dedicated to how good he looks in case you don't trust my personal investigative analysis). Therefore, at an age when Carell should lean drastically toward being our dad, with that hair, body and wardrobe he is most certainly our boyfriend.
5. He bought a general store in a quiet New England town.
Ok, is there anything more adorable than this?
This a gesture that SCREAMS dad, but a man with so much money he can burn it on lovely, quaint candy shops? THAT'S HOT.
In conclusion, it's settled. Steve Carell is our Sugar Daddy.
Having a job is great until you actually have to go in and do work. Treat yourself to some laughs today. You'll be clocking out before you know it.
The internet may cause a lot of problems. But it also really good at helping you solve them. Before Google.com, there was Altavista.com and AskJeeves.com. But before that, if you can even imagine a time that long ago, when we needed to find answers to questions, we had to actually (a) find another human being and ask them, (b) go to a library, or (c) choose to live in ignorance.
Fortunately, those dark days are long behind us. And the internet is always there when we need answers to literally any question. There's actually a whole Reddit page devoted to people asking the internet to help them identify random found objects. Here are twenty examples, including our best guess, which was almost always wrong. Thank you, internet, for setting us straight!
Answer, c/o PantsuitNixon:
My guess, as a former R&D director at an OTC drug lab, is that the acrylate in the adhesive has absorbed too much ambient moisture over the last five years (or has been exposed to higher-than-usual temperatures and lower-than-usual humidity) and is precipitating out of the adhesive solution that keeps a bandaid stuck to your skin. The green is likely a result of that precipitation leaching some component of the bandage color that's green at the right pH. These both explain the uniformity of color and crystallization, but since medical devices like bandages don't require ingredient lists on their packaging, I can't say what it might be specifically.
If stored in a stable, dry environment at a comfortable temperature, bandages will last for eternity. But they aren't manufactured to withstand temperature and humidity fluctuations over long periods of time. The standard stability testing aims for a two-year shelf life on just about anything you can buy at a pharmacy (exceptions being products that don't degrade at all, like epsom salts).
Edit: Or they're sprinkles.

It may be a ham radio operator looking for a source of interference. He may have tracked the source of interference to your house or a nearby neighbor. One of your electrical devices may be producing a lot of radio interference for some reason and he's interested in stopping that interference. Every electronic device should not be producing radio interference, but if it is there may be a problem or fault with it that you may be unaware of.
Edit- u/AnticitizenPrime has suggested that it may be a FCC contractor sent to find a source of interference. I'm not sure about the time so I'm not going to speculate as to why they may be there so late in the evening.
Also, there is no better time than now to get your amateur radio license. Start out with a technician class license and move on up as you learn more.

the flat tail makes me want to say flying squirrel. they're super common in the NE but nocturnal so folks don't realize they are around. Also has pretty huge eyes for a rodent that size. Pull his legs apart and see if he has flaps I guess. They also have more of a 'rat' outline/ hind end than a grey which matches your little buddy. An adult grey would also have gnarly claws, bigger feet. I'm @ like 80% flying squirrel. https://goo.gl/images/zrWR4k

cattle/pig microchip for meat traceability, i'd say. http://www.agriexpo.online/prod/i-d-ology/product-173571-52418.html
These really aren't supposed to get into food. If you're at a restaurant, I'd complain to the manager. If you bought the meat and cooked it yourself, I'd contact the purveyor.
If I wasn't already vegetarian, I'd be one now!

Specifically, this looks like Concentrated Thermal Solar. It uses mirrors to reflect the light to a central tower which is barely visible in your picture due to the glare coming off of it. The light is then converted to heat where it drives a steam turbine, or some other heat engine.

Obviously, this last answer is a blatant lie.
But with that exception, thank you to the internet for helping us when we can't help ourselves—which, tbh, is most of the time.
Here's the thing, even filthy rich celebrity parents still have to deal with the tyranny of growing children. No amount of couture toys, Ivy league educated nannies, or professional family photo shoots can change the fact that children are out for their parent's blood.
Even when kids are loving and well-behaved and don't secretly desire to make their parent's bones into a couch frame, they still demand a boatload of patience. Patience, like all virtues, cannot be paid for or padded down by money. So, when it comes to the struggle of parenting, celebrities are in a similar emotional boat to everyone else.
Obviously, once more, money and privilege are HUGE factors in the parenting process. Still, these 40 tweets from celebrity parents are relatable to pretty much anyone who has raised a small human.

Fox News is President Trump's source for entertainment, affirmation, and intelligence briefings; a spigot of toxic sludge that has lead to violence and people not loving their grandparents anymore.
It's easy to feel powerless in the face of a billion dollar State TV apparatus at the heart of a vast media empire, but there's one thing that not even all the money in the world can suppress: the Twitter clapback. Here are the best ones.
1. The professional term is "throwing the baby out with the bathwater."

In case you missed the news, this week Khloe Kardashian dumped Tristan Thompson after he allegedly cheated on her with Kylie's long time BFF Jordyn Woods.
While Thompson vehemently denied the rumors in a now deleted tweet, Woods has yet to speak up, and both Khloe and her BFF Malika Haqq made it clear they believe the rumor.
Naturally, this turn of events is heartbreaking for Khloe, and looks like the plot of a telenovela to the rest of the world. People on Twitter have been pouring out both condolences for Khloe, and hot takes about the whole situation, ranging from cutting to funny to empathetic.
Some of the responses, however, have received backlash for being insensitive to Khloe.
For example, when Modern Family actress Sarah Hyland made a pun about the situation, her mentions were filled with people claiming she was being needlessly callous about Khloe's heartbreak.
While Hyland's tweet was fairly innocuous compared to some of the scathing hot takes, one of the reasons she got dragged is because of her past experiences getting bullied off Twitter. To many, her flippance about Khloe's situation felt hypocritical.
While Hyland received a lot of backlash for her joke, she hasn't engaged or responded to any of it. While her pun doesn't appear to be mean-spirited, it obviously hit a raw nerve after all of the times she's talked about the harm of online bullying.
