It was a sunny Saturday, and I was cruising down the freeway with my wife. Music was blasting, and everything felt perfect—until it didn’t. Suddenly, I remembered I needed to check something on my phone.
“Why are you pulling over?” my wife asked, confused.
“Hand me my phone!” I replied, my voice filled with urgency.
“We’re on the freeway!” she exclaimed, wide-eyed.
“Hand. Me. My. PHONE!” I insisted, feeling a sense of impending doom if I didn’t check it immediately.
She glanced at the cars whizzing by and sighed. “Okay, but this is a terrible idea!”
As I pulled over to the shoulder, I fumbled for my phone, ready to check my social media updates. But just then, a squirrel dashed across the road, causing a car to swerve wildly.
“See? This is exactly why we don’t pull over on the freeway!” my wife said, shaking her head.
I finally got my phone in hand and turned to her with a sheepish grin. “You know, I didn’t even remember what I needed to check. I just wanted an excuse to stop and grab a snack!”
She rolled her eyes. “You mean to tell me we could’ve just waited until the next exit for a snack?”
“Yep!” I chuckled. “But at least we have a good story now, right?”
Moral of the Story: Sometimes, it’s better to be patient and think things through before making a rash decision. And never underestimate the power of a good snack break—just make sure it’s safe!
A Beauty Not of This World. A man from the U.S. who had tattoos all over his body showed us what he looked like without them.
An ordinary American made a decision once that would alter his or her entire life. Since obtaining his first tattoo a few years ago, Tristan has continued to add to his collection.
Tristan is currently covered in a detailed ink painting. In a recent surprise to his followers, he posted photos of himself before changing. At first, Tristan’s friends were perplexed since they couldn’t identify him in the old pictures.
In those earlier photos, Tristan didn’t resemble himself in the least. He had a vintage Hollywood appearance and was a redhead with blue eyes. Tristan’s admirers praised him profusely in the comments and exhorted him to look for work in Hollywood because he looked so wonderful.
However, despite all the affection, some people were unable to conceal their melancholy.
A handful of the American’s upset pals remarked, “He ruined himself.”
