We have all had that moment where we dropped food on our clothes only to discover that there’s now a grease stain. Especially when it happens to a new dress, it can be devastating. You can’t wear it when there’s a noticeable grease stain, so what do you do? There are actually a few quick and easy solutions. These are some tips you will want to remember! 1. Time is of the Essence Work on the stain as quickly as possible. The longer it sits there, the more time it will have to set. Try blotting some of the excess oil/grease ASAP. 2.

AITA for giving away my friend’s ticket to the Taylor Swift concert and leaving without her? A while ago, I (20F) bought four tickets to the Taylor Swift concert that took place in our city this past weekend. The plan was for me, Marissa, Haley, and Aiden to go together—we’ve all been best friends since high school. Everyone paid me for the tickets and made plans accordingly. We had planned to arrive early to hang out before the show, and everyone had known this plan for a long time. But for some reason, Marissa couldn’t or didn’t get the day off work. She’s a server at a breakfast restaurant and usually doesn’t work very late. (This all happened on a Saturday, by the way.) I also have an older sister who lives in the same city and really wanted to go but couldn’t get a ticket. She begged me to keep her in mind as a backup in case anything happened. We don’t live that close to the city (sometimes it’s over an hour drive), so our plan was to leave at 2 PM. At around 1 PM, I started text...

Meet King Kong , the world’s tallest living water buffalo, officially recognized by Guinness World Records . Despite his towering size, this colossal creature is anything but intimidating to those who know him best. 👑 A Record-Breaking Giant King Kong resides at Ninlanee Farm in Nakhon Ratchasima, Thailand .

For comparison, a typical water...
✈️ Smart Ways to Save Money on Travel Without Missing the Fun As the new year approached, I found myself deep in planning mode for 2020. I created lists of recipes I wanted to master, items to save up for, and — most exciting of all — destinations I hoped to explore. Planning is essential when it comes to setting goals, especially if you’re someone eager to step outside your comfort zone and experience something new. If you’re organizing your next trip, here are a few practical tips to help you make the most of your travels — without draining your wallet. 💰 1. Prioritize Where Your Money Goes When you travel, ask yourself: what matters most to you? For me, it’s food. I’m happiest spending my money on local dishes, unique snacks, and the best bites in town.
