This Cool Cat Dressed Up Like A Monkey

Sometimes, life throws you lemons. Other times, it tosses a banana your way.

When Buster the cat was presented with this banana, we got a weirdly adorable viral video. In the beginning of the video, he doesn’t seem terribly fond of the food his owners are trying to cajole him to eat. However, after a little bit of pushing, Buster responds positively, and even enjoys this strange snack that felines don’t typically enjoy. Does anybody else have a cat that eats bananas? I’ve certainly never heard of this.

And while this cat looks pretty sad, we can’t tell for sure if he is actually upset with his strange owners, or if that’s just his face. Perhaps he’s wondering why his owners dressed him up in this ridiculous suit. Maybe he’s contemplating how his life reached this point.

Or perhaps he’s simply wondering what’s up with all this monkey business:

Ahh, the joys of being a parent!

From disastrous dirty diapers to middle of the night wake-ups, every mother and father knows well that the best job in the world can sometimes be one of the most difficult. Being a parent is one of life’s most precious blessings, but it’s easy to get aggravated when your little one just won’t stop screaming for seemingly no reason.

Luckily for new parents and those on Grandma or Grandpa duty, a California-based pediatrician claims to have figured out the best way to comfort a crying cutie. Dr. Robert Hamilton of Pacific Ocean Pediatrics in Santa Monica has cared for thousands of newborns during his career, so you can imagine how many times a day his office is filled with their little screams.

Dr. Bob recently shared his secret weapon to turn those tiny frowns upside down, a method he’s dubbed “The Hold”. The funny thing is, it’s not much different from how we adults get in a happy mood. Dr. Bob says all you have to do to stop a baby from crying is shake their little booty!

Here’s his foolproof plan to stop the tears: Hold the baby at a 45 degree angle and lift them up and down, while gently rocking them back and forth. After about three months, Doc says babies become too heavy for “The Hold”, so unfortunately this won’t work on your nagging husband or stubborn toddler.

No one wants to be that person who holds a newborn and they start screaming bloody murder, so next time you’re lucky enough to be handed a bundle of joy, you’ll know exactly what to do…and it’s guaranteed to get you on any new parent’s good side!

What do you think of “The Hold”? Please SHARE this video with all of your friends on Facebook and let us know your thoughts in the comments!

These Baby Sloths Are Learning To Climb: Wait Till Use See What Their Teacher Is

These hard-working sloths are definitely failing to live up to their name.

Typically, sloths learn to climb from Mama sloth. However, the baby sloths at the Toucan Rescue Ranch in Costa Rica don’t have mothers to teach them the hard work that comes with being a sloth. Most lost their mothers to cars or dogs. Fortunately, the rescue center is there to fill in and ensure these lethargic animals are kept happy.

When it comes to learning how to climb, the sloths have a teacher filling in for Mom, and it’s not what you would expect. The babies are placed on rocking chairs, which sway back and forth to mimic the rocking of a tree branch. It allows the sloths to learn how to climb in a realistic and safe environment.

Watch them crawl their way around the strangest “tree” any sloth has ever encountered:

And here’s a fun fact about sloths you probably were not aware of:

Contrary to their reputation, sloths are not as lazy as they would have you believe. Sloths only sleep about ten hours a day, which is significantly more than the five hours you scramble to receive each night, but not as much as we’ve been led to believe.

AND, they look like strange little aliens when they get wet:

This Woman Looks Pregnant, But Wait Till You See Who’s Inside!

The act of raising a helpless baby forms an unbreakable bond, no matter if that baby is human or not. When a couple was given the task of keeping a baby koala alive, they never imagined how amazing those sleepless nights, and constant feedings would make them feel.

When one of Symbio Wildlife Park’s mother koalas passed away tragically from Leukemia, the team was left with a very difficult decision, as the zoo had two baby koalas, Imogen and Harry, and only one mother, Kelly. Kelly was actually Imogen’s birth mom, but the team decided the best chance of survival for both babies was to hand rear Imogen, the older of the two babies, and attempt to cross surrogate Harry into Kelly’s pouch.

Kylie Elliott and Matt Radnidge, who both work at the park, were then put on the fast track to parenthood, as they were given the task of hand raising baby Imogen. The two never left Imogen’s side, and would walk around with her nestled in a pouch beneath a warm coat.

While out in public, people were always noticing Kylie’s bump and  commenting “how far along are you?” “Not long to go now hey!” “Do you know if it’s a boy or a girl.”

Little did they know, the large bump was really a cozy Imogen who needed Kylie’s warmth, movement, and heartbeat to simulate life in her mother’s pouch.

“Hand raising Imogen has been the most challenging and rewarding thing we have ever achieved. It hasn’t been an easy journey raising a joey with nocturnal habits and sharp claws – I definitely have a new respect for Koala mothers! Imogen has become such a huge part of our lives, and we are so blessed to have had the opportunity to play a part in her rearing,” Kylie said.

Some Reasons Why Playing Hard to Get is a Must

$

Let me start this by saying there’s a difference between playing hard to get and actually being hard to get.

When you are hard to get, it means you have a lot going on in your life and a relationship is not taking priority. You are juggling a healthy mix of work, your social life, personal interests, and family. Until this person proves their worthy of your time, they are on the back burner. When you play hard to get, it stems from the desire to manipulate because you want somebody at your every beckoned call. You’re insecurities cause you to fear that somebody might put you on their back burner, so you try to “put them in their place” before they ever get the upper-hand (make sure you know the difference. It will be on the exam).

This difference got me to thinking about relationships and modern dating. We may be trying to play hard to get these days, but it’s stemming from manipulation and insecurity. Nobody wants to send out that text on a Saturday night, see the little dots, watch them disappear, and then spend the rest of the night wondering why they won’t text back.

Image Credit: Giphy
Image Credit: Giphy

This is how we date now:

A friend of mine got into a relationship recently. One night, he went out to a bar with a group of friends, had 5 shots of tequila, and hooked up with a long-time patron of the group. They began sleeping together sporadically, then began to sleep together regularly. They weren’t exclusive for a while, but finally committed to a closed relationship. They met each other’s parents, and the rest as they say, is history…until three months later, she got bored, he got clingy, they broke up, and both moved on to new partners.
This example could accurately describe anybody in their 20’s these days. The details vary, but so often, this is how relationships begin. Where’s the fun in that?

Our dating habits are causing us to miss out on the best part of sex: sexual tension.

Nobody is a challenge anymore. Whatever happened to good, old-fashioned flirting? By no means did the generations of the past get it right, but we’re definitely doing it wrong.

Another friend of mine recently met a guy through school. They had a psychology class together and since they were both very interested in the topic, they found themselves discussing it after class quite frequently. One day, he asked her out to coffee and they sat and discussed psychology, life, and yadda yadda for an hour. A week later, they went out to dinner and after she tried to bring him back to her place. He declined, bid her goodnight, and went home. She couldn’t figure out what had happened. What turned him off? Was it something she said?
A few more days later, he asked her if she wanted to accompany him to a street fair and carnival. They had a really good time, but again, he didn’t want to go home with her. Convinced she was a revolting beast (or he just wanted to cheat on her answers for the psych final) she asked him, “what gives?”
“Nothing,” was his answer. “I just like letting sexual tension build. It makes it more fun when it’s finally released,” he said with a wink. “Have fun thinking about me later.”

He then kissed her goodnight and drove off. Intrigued, she let things continue for another week. They flirted after class, drank coffee together, and went out a few more times. She never went into detail about what happened next, but the look on her face said it all (they’re still dating, by the way).

Never underestimate the beauty of a challenge:

The difference between the two examples is that one presented a challenge, and everybody likes having to work for something (the $100 billion industry of video gaming clearly demonstrates that we enjoy a challenging game). That being said, there’s nothing wrong with sleeping with somebody on the first date. There’s nothing wrong with hooking up in a bar and then dating that person. There’s nothing wrong with sleeping your way through an entire sorority in three months (if that’s how you enjoy spending your free time). However, society teaches us to demand instant gratification and fails to instruct us on the benefits of denial. We want food delivery in thirty minutes or less, next day shipping, immediate communication, and instant sex. Hasn’t anybody told us good things come to those who wait? Denial increases desire. Why are we collectively gypping ourselves by failing to be patient?

This is How Some Cities Respond to Homeless People

Have you ever had to rough it in a heated airport, sleeping on a cushioned chair while you waited for your flight?

If you ever have, then you know how awful it is to sleep in an uncomfortable position, surrounded by people, without a blanket. Now, imagine for a moment, that instead of a heated airport, you’re on a concrete slab, in the dead of winter, surrounded by people who look away from you as they pass by (and there is no plane coming in 6 hours to fly you to Miami). Oh, and to make matters worse, the city puts up metal spikes on your concrete slab so you can’t even sleep comfortably on your highly uncomfortable “bed.”

The “defensive architecture” is used by office buildings in large cities to keep people from loitering or sitting for long periods on their front stoop. The offices display long rows of metal spikes that make it very uncomfortable for anybody who attempts to sit down.

Curtain Road in Shoreditch, East London had a group of artists protest these spikes in a collaboration they call “Space, Not Spikes.”

The artists placed makeshift beds in these spaces as a form of protest.

Image Credit: Upworthy

Additionally they filled the spaces with bookshelves and left a kind note for those who use the space.

Image Credit: Upworthy

Leah Borromeo spoke with the Independent and said the “defensive architecture” should actually be called “hostile architecture.”

Sleeping or sitting on a concrete slab is not an attack. However, if a disabled person needed to sit down for a rest, or if a sick person were to collapse, these metal spikes could quickly become dangerous and a form of ableism (which is prejudice against disabled people).

Additionally, these spike do nothing to solve the problems of homelessness. Instead, the “hostile architecture” sends the clear message that, “if you’re going to be homeless, go do it somewhere else so we don’t have to look at you.”

Human beings are encouraged to be self-centered with actions like these but Borromeo told Upworthy, that she believes we aren’t intrinsically like this. “Capitalism and greed conditions us to look out for ourselves and negate the welfare of others, but ultimately, I think we’re actually really kind.”

Watch This Crow Attempt To Eat A Man’s Finger

Holy crow!

Have you ever bitten off more than you can could chew? Sometimes we do this when it pertains to juggling the commitments that come with work. Other times, we literally bite off more than we can chew and find ourselves inconspicuously attempting to spit a hunk of meat into the napkin while we hope the rest of the restaurant doesn’t notice.

Awkward…

Image Credit: Giphy
Image Credit: Giphy

Yes, we have all been in that precarious position. Perhaps the most recent rendition of that awkward moment comes in the form of a crow choking on some guy’s finger. The crow was sitting there minding its own business, when this guy (possibly its owner) came along and stuck a finger in its mouth.

That crow, however, really took it like a champ. Once he committed, he did not back out. He casually attempts to eat the finger whole, though he may have forgotten to factor in that there was a pesky human attached to that finger.

We have no idea what the dynamic is between these two, but we imagine that was either a very friendly crow, or a very trusting dude.

However, we would just like to state for the record that you really shouldn’t try this at home:

Dogs who wear sunglasses are the cutest viral phenomenon running across your Facebook page at the moment.

We can only assume the CIA hired these secret operatives to track down the bad guys and gather intel. But is their bark as big as their bite?

We looked into this issue farther and while I can assure you these dogs are DEFINITELY not doubling as spies, cops, or secret agents in their spare time, they are definitely adorable.

However, our favorite crime busting dog isn’t even an actual dog. He’s a prairie dog who’s partner in crime busting is as least ten times the size of this little dude. Together, the two look like they have either watched one too many episodes of COPS, or like they both work for the CIA.

Whatever the case may be, you better hope you don’t find these two on your tail. We hear their really good at digging up dirt.

AND if you look very closely, you can see the gopher is in fact wearing American Girl sunglasses. What a doll…

If these two show up o your lawn anytime soon, you better start packing your bags cause these two crime stoppers are about to come for you! 

Are You Bright Enough To Understand This Vine?

You might have to watch it a few times before you catch on to what he’s selling.

An online vine is gaining popularity thanks to Reddit and it’s a good thing the work of art continuously loops because it’s pretty difficult to catch on to what these guys are selling at the first go around (or even the fifth). The Vine was created by Charlie and Greg, who are self-proclaimed comedy writers and art directors. They make fun of door-to-door salesmen in their little spoof of a salesmen by proclaiming to be a door-to-door door-to-door door salesman salesman. Are you able to keep up?

Try watching the clip. It might help you understand:

If you’re still confused, allow me to break it down. It took me a few tries to understand it too. The guys are spoofing a door-to-door salesman, who happens to sell, salesmen. In case you need a door-to-door salesman to sell your very specialized product, you can buy the salesman from the door-to-door salesman salesman.

But wait, it gets worse:

The door-to-door salesman salesman doesn’t just sell salesmen. He sells door salesmen. So if you need to sell doors door-to-door, you can buy a salesman from the door-to-door door-to-door door salesman salesman. Confused yet? Yeah, me too. It doesn’t make very much sense when you read about it, but watching the actual vine clarifies quite a bit. Kudos to the guys who made this vine. Let’s hope no door-to-door salesman try to beat their door down tonight for shaming their wonderful reputation.

If I tried to pull this stunt with my cat, I wouldn’t have any eyeballs left.

But my cat is really more of a classic rock fan. This cat however, appears to love dubstep and knows how to dance to it. The world’s chillest cat enjoys getting down to Skrillex.

YouTuber wbowerproductions said he and his roommate took in the coolest stray ever. They were messing around with the cat while listening to music one night and they discovered that this Skrillex-loving cat had no issue being coerced into dancing to the funky music. He even seems to be enjoying himself. Of course, who wouldn’t enjoy the sick beats of Skrillex? The guys of WBowerProductions also said that the cat wasn’t hurt in any way when they made him dance for the purpose of the cutest dubstep video ever.

We have to admit, he really does have some great dance moves:

Watch the Coolest (and Hottest) Way to Open Wine

In an alternate universe, James Bond uses this method to open every bottle of wine.

This is one of those times when we get to say, don’t try this at home, kids (and by kids I mean the wine-loving adults reading this). Jonathan Ross is a sommelier at Eleven Madison Park. If you’re like me and you have no idea what a sommelier does, Wikipedia told me it’s a steward of wine, which is a pretty cool job description for your LinkedIn page.

Ross demonstrates in the video the old-school technique of heating up a pair of tongs, sticking them to the glass bottle, and then rapidly cooling the bottle with ice, causing the neck to break. The tactic is to get just the right amount of fine glass shards in the wine for an extra kick of flavor (just kidding–that causes internal bleeding).

If you’re going to try this at home, please try to avoid lighting the house on fire, and remember to stay classy.

3 Question You Must Ask When Assessing Your Friendships

$

Image Credit: Flickr

Life is like a moving walkway…

Image Credit: Giphy
Image Credit: Giphy

…except you’re that person who’s walking in the wrong direction. If you walk normal, you don’t get anywhere. If you stop, you go backwards. It isn’t until you exert effort that you find yourself moving forward. We consider this when we think about our careers. Of course you have to hustle to get ahead in work. But what about our friendships? Should they remain stagnant and how do we “hustle” in our social lives?
College and early adulthood provide us with opportunities to be friends with everybody. We have limited responsibilities, plenty of free time, and large social circles. However, the older we get, the more we learn to prioritize and often that means holding onto only the friendships that lift you up. A friend is somebody with whom you have a history, somebody that shares your values, and somebody you can have fun with. They are a confidant and they allow us to be vulnerable, as well as challenging us to be the best version of ourselves. With so many categories to fill, it’s hard to imagine anybody has even one friend. You might be onto something, because studies show the average American only has two real friends (25 years ago we had three, but times have changed). When assessing the people in your life and considering if they should remain a prominent part of it, there are a few things you need to consider.

How does this person challenge me to be a better version of myself?

A friend should be somebody you admire. They are a person who inspires you to live up to your best potential rather than indulging you with your most basic drives. A real friend is somebody that should have similar values as you, but not so similar that they create an echo chamber. When you confide in them about an issue in your life, they should encourage you to see it from an outside perspective, rather than reinforcing what you already believe.
Have you ever found yourself talking to a friend and one of you is venting about work/relationships/roommates/whatever. Whoever is doing the venting has already formed an opinion on the matter. A real friend will look at the issue objectively and say, “wait, from an outside perspective that sounds different. Have you considered this varying opinion before you made that judgement?” Yeah, it’s easier said than done, but if you really want to grow, don’t be friends with somebody that echos what you already think. That’s what parrots are for.

What do we have in common?

Friendship is based upon mutual interests, first and foremost. Those interests are what drew you to this person in the first place. A lot of the time, it’s easy to use a friend as an emotional release. You get coffee with them and dump your issues in their lap, and they do the same to you. You feel better after because somebody listened to you and validated what you were already feeling, but if this is the sole basis of friendship, it’s not a friendship.
When trying to figure out the friends in your life and the people who are closest to you, make a list of what you do together, what interests you share, and how you mutually benefit each other. If the only thing you have in common is that you like to go out drinking on Saturday night and then have brunch together Sunday morning while discussing last nights hook-up, again I encourage you to reconsider the relationship.

If they moved to another state tomorrow, what would we text each other about?

Friendship isn’t based on location or social proximity. Often, in college and early adulthood, it’s easy to base the majority of the conversation on who did what. You recount funny stories about the social circle, share gossip, and discuss crushes. If both your social circles changed tomorrow and you both moved to new states with new groups, what you you talk about when you regularly text? Would you share jokes, send thought-provoking links, and anguish/rejoice over your mutual sports teams? Or would it become a series of the classic “how are you doing” texts that would fade with time?

Of course, as these situations tend to go, there’s always one spoil-sport and in this case it’s Bob, the serious goat, who doesn’t want to break the world record for most goats on a flexible piece of metal (clearly a category that’s rather scant to begin with).

Hair Tapestries are Like Summer Camp for Your Hair

Remember when you were 12-years-old and you used to go to summer camp.

You’d spend your entire day making a friendship bracelet for your camp best friend (not to be confused for your school best friend). Well, they’re making a mild comeback, but instead of going on your wrist, you can wear them in your hair. Hair is happening at the moment and hair tapestries are about to become a big deal (hopefully that means sidecuts are officially over).

The style varies from fairly simple designs like this:

 

To intricate forms that cover the whole head:

You can even see the strain in his face as he attempts to mutter the two simple syllables. Meanwhile, his little human just looks on with a very blank look on his face. Finally, our furry friend gets the word out and Mom really loses it. (Still, the little human continues to stare with a blank look on his face.) That’s okay, little guy, learning to talk is hard work. Just because the dog beat you to it, doesn’t mean you won’t get the hang someday soon.

Motivation Monday: Steve Jobs’ Key To Living Life Before It’s Over

Photo by Stanford

In his short 56 years on earth, Steve Jobs managed to fit in several careers and several lifetimes, which is why he’s the perfect person to go to for the key to living life well.

In his commencement speech to Stanford’s graduating class of 2005, Jobs touched on the experiences that shaped his life including his decision to drop out of college, getting fired from Apple, and finally getting diagnosed with cancer.

3. Trust that the dots will connect.

When Jobs dropped out of Reed College, he was terrified because he had no idea what to do with his life, but dropping out of classes he didn’t enjoy freed up time that allowed him to drop into classes he did. It all seemed useless to him then, but became priceless knowledge as he grew older. “You can’t connect the dots looking forward; you can only connect them looking backward. So you have to trust that the dots will somehow connect in your future. You have to trust in something — your gut, destiny, life, karma, whatever. This approach has never let me down, and it has made all the difference in my life.”

2. The worst things in your life may not be what they seem.

In Jobs’ opinion, the ‘worst’ thing that had ever happened to him was getting fired from the very company he started, yet, in the end, it proved to be the best thing to ever happen to him. He may have been fired from his company, but that had not changed his love for what he did.

“I didn’t see it then, but it turned out that getting fired from Apple was the best thing that could have ever happened to me. The heaviness of being successful was replaced by the lightness of being a beginner again, less sure about everything. It freed me to enter one of the most creative periods of my life.”

“Sometimes life hits you in the head with a brick. Don’t lose faith. I’m convinced that the only thing that kept me going was that I loved what I did. You’ve got to find what you love.”

1. Remember that life is finite.

After his first cancer diagnosis and surgery, Jobs reminded the students that life is limited, so follow your heart since you really have nothing to lose in reality. “Your time is limited, so don’t waste it living someone else’s life,” Jobs said. “Don’t be trapped by dogma — which is living with the results of other people’s thinking. Don’t let the noise of others’ opinions drown out your own inner voice. And most important, have the courage to follow your heart and intuition. They somehow already know what you truly want to become. Everything else is secondary.”

Anybody that grew up with an annoying little sibling will definitely relate to this video.

Having a sibling is difficult. When you grow up sharing everything with an older brother or sister, you know the struggle of getting all their old hand-me-downs. The older sibling, on the other hand, knows the struggle of having an annoying toddler following them around and always wanting to hang out with them. And both know the struggle of fighting for attention (and food).

These two are just like every pair of siblings in the world. They even look the same and could pass for twins…if they weren’t separate species. Animals TV posted this adorable video of real life Tom and Jerry growing up together. What starts with a tiny kitten and a big Labrador turns into a tiny cat and still a big Labrador. These two annoy each other, steal their food, bite and scratch (lovingly), and ultimately end up cuddling together like the adorable friends they are always meant to be. It warms our heart here at Life Daily to see such “natural enemies” getting along like the best of friends.

And this precious video will warm your heart too:
