30 Situations That Happen To Everyone, But No One Talks About

Everybody loves the horsies! I guess if you grew up around horses though, the excitement probably would be reserved for something more exotic. "Oh look, mooses" would be my version of that.

Speaking of mooses; if goose is geese, why isn't moose, meese?

This. Then you make the mistake of going on to Google to search for 'liver pain,' and five minutes later you have convinced yourself that you now have hepatitis. Good times.

Judging the line at the supermarket is one of those handy skills that can get you ahead in everyday life. Sure, that guy might have a small basket, but they are all fresh goods that need to be weighed and typed in manually, That lady has a trolley full of cans but they are all the same, and will pass through with a single scan and a quick count. Tactics!

But what do you do when you're toward the back of a line, and you sense a new checkout is about to be opened. Do you make the move? Skip the queue and get in to an undeserved lead? Or fairly and politely let the people in front go, as they have waited longer. What's your strategy and etiquette?

This happens too often to be a coincidence, there must be an explanation. According to an article by Lucas Reilly in Mental Floss, your body adapts well if you have a good sleep routine, and tries to preempt the stress of your dreaded alarm.

"Your body hates your alarm clock. It’s jarring. It’s stressful. And it ruins all that hard work," he writes. "It defeats the purpose of gradually waking up. So, to avoid being interrupted, your body does something amazing: It starts increasing a protein called PER and stress hormones earlier in the night. Your body gets a head start so the waking process isn’t cut short. It’s so precise that your eyelids open minutes—maybe even seconds—before the alarm goes off."

Some people are receipt keepers, while others aren't. What am I gonna do with a grocery receipt from last week? Claim it back on tax? I'm definitely in the no-receipt camp but it's true, sometimes a random urge does strike and I find myself running through a few "what if just in case" scenarios.

But yeah, like this guy these feeling are based on absolutely nothing. Still beats having a wallet full of Walmart receipts from 1996.

Why do we get this collective feeling of the years going more slowly than they actually do? Perhaps it's because we haven't embraced the 'style' of the most recent decades yet, because we are still close to them.

The 70s 80s and 90s all have a definitive feel to them, and for me anyway, the 90s still feel close by. The 2000s and 2010s haven't yet been defined in my head, so it all kinda feels the same. 2014 could've been yesterday as far as I'm concerned. What do you think?
