“I used to stand before the mirror and look deep into my unhappy eyes, sigh and say, ‘Oh cruel fate!’ And in a few minutes, I felt a little bit better.” This is what Moominpappa used to say. Sometimes life presents us with challenges that are difficult to get through, and this practice can actually help.
Bright Side has prepared a collection of situations in which this small exercise could help us to look at the future with optimism.
1. Oh, no, no, no…
2. Well, now it’s pizza time!
3. Maybe rent will be a bit lower now?
4. When you aren’t careful enough:
5. This ice cream came without a cone.
6. Yes, these are peanuts in a Coca-Cola bottle.
7. My view from the top of Machu Picchu Mountain and what the view could have been:
8. At least they found what they were looking for.
9. Now I know what a bottomless cup of coffee looks like.
10. Just got to my therapy appointment. It seems to be off to a bad start…
11. Don’t blame him. He hasn’t finished the book yet.
12. Spice up your life!
13. “Our youngest son has a taste for irony.”
14. “I just built a new house for myself.”

15 Tattoos You Don’t Want to Have No Matter What
Everyone makes decisions differently about getting tattoos. Some people take a long time to think everything through and some people decide to do it spontaneously and emotionally. Most people from our compilation are probably spontaneous. But sometimes, even if you are careful with choosing your tattoos, you still might get a controversial one like the guy in the last picture.Bright Side came across several tattoos that made our eyebrows go up.“The sketch I made for my tattoo vs What I ended up with”
Treble clef tattoo
Her tattoo says “fresh spring rolls” in Thai.
“My wife and I had matching tattoos planned. I went first, hers was scheduled for a week after that. That was 4 days ago, 2 days ago we decided to get a divorce due to obviously unforeseen unfortunate circumstances. I’m an idiot.”
“My friend got a tattoo.”
And where are the legs?
“My friend bought a tattoo gun on amazon for £100. Tattooed Darth Vader on himself.”
“A friend of mine got a tattoo of some flowers, looks… Great!”
“So my buddy’s step-sister got a tattoo of her mother…”
“My awesome Star Wars tattoo”
“A buddy of mine has a friend who gave himself this in the 8th grade.”
“Okay, there may be a typo here…”
What’s up with these poor animals?
Well, this word is not easy to spell, so…
A guy got the same tattoo as the dog he got. It turned out that the tattoo means that the dog was neutered.
Later, the man said that he knew what the tattoo meant. He just wanted to do something for his dog to reinforce their connection. “My dog is always with me now.” We probably wouldn’t have done the same.
