For many years, scientists were stuck on the idea that an initial response to a trouble could be only “fight or flight,” but the things on this list made us freeze in disbelief. At Bright Side we love a good problem to solve, but this list had us beat. Misfortune and reaction mix so well in here, it was hard for us to pick a favorite one. A family member uploaded this Easter picture of my cousin. As long …

It’s wonderful if you were lucky enough to meet your soulmate, but it’s even better if you both have the same sense of humor. What can be better than a partner who can make you laugh in any situation, even if it’s really serious? Couples like these usually don’t fight for long and can resolve conflicts through playful banter. Bright Side offers you …

Most popular cocktails contain alcohol and a lot of calories. That’s why alcohol and diets are definitely not a match made in heaven. But sometimes it’s so important to relax and have a good time with friends, right? What do you do in this case? You can easily replace them with lighter drinks that taste just as good as your usual cocktails. They don’t contain a lot of sugar …

Let’s be honest, we all like to eat. And we especially like to eat at night. But we were told so many times that that’s a terrible idea and whatever we eat late goes straight to our hips. However, the latest research shows that things don’t happen exactly that way and there are some very tasty products that you can eat at night without gaining weight. Of course …

A nest in the bedroom, green water in the swimming pool, packets of salt in salt shakers, and awfully cramped bathrooms may all sound weird, but this is the price paid by those looking for a discount. Next time you look for cheap accommodation, make sure you don’t choose one of these hotels. Saving money on a hotel is something almost everyone is in search of for these days. If you …

Paulo Coelho once precisely said, “In my world everything is possible and everything is relative.” A study conducted on universal connection says, “Every object is a link in an endless chain and is thus connected with all the other links.” Sometimes the similarity is hilariously bizarre. Bright Side has brought you a collection of pictures that are unexpectedly similar. They will surely amuse you or surprise you. Just take a look: …

Sometimes really bad things can happen around us, ones that are difficult to cope with. The stories in this article will remind you that everything around us is actually made of kindness and that we humans are made to support each other and bond together when hard times come. We at Bright Side sincerely believe that kindness always wins. And the stories below are proof …

Dr. Val Curtis from the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine, suggests that feeling disgust is healthy and even good for us. Maybe this is why we are so drawn to cringe-worthy pictures on the internet — and the ones on this list take the cake. At Bright Side, we love pleasant things as much as the next guy, but sometimes we like to shake things up a little. “My cousin has an orange …

When it comes to our planet, we consider everything about it to be well-known and usual. Surprisingly, we know much more about space than we do about our common planet. For example, we call Earth the blue planet, though scientists believe that it was not always blue. Additionally, the moon is not the only satellite of Earth. Bright Side invites you to learn about some interesting discoveries about our …

These imperfect photos that are scratched, out of focus, and overexposed have a magnetic charm about them. They’re so interesting, we want to look at them over and over again. The faces in them are beautiful and are from another time, telling a story in every picture. These stories are naive, sad, and even funny. Internet users have shared some of these photos and we want …
