What dating apps are actually doing to your brain

It's hard to believe that just a decade ago "swiping right" was a brand new phenomenon. How much has changed in the meantime! According to Pew Research Center, around 10% of straight respondents met their long-term, committed partners on a dating site or app. Interestingly, the research showed dating app users were divided about whether their experience on these platforms was positive overall. But what is the gamification of the search for love doing to our brain? Humans are hardwired to seek a mate, and the same pathways that light up when people take drugs are activated by the feeling of falling in love. Could companies be capitalizing on our addiction to our own dopamine supply? Click on to discover what dating apps are actually doing to your brain.


Famous acronyms you should definitely know the meaning of

We sometimes have a lot to say, but little time to say it. This is when acronyms come in for both formal and informal writing (and even speech). So what exactly are acronyms? Well, they're new words you create when you use the first letters of each word in a phrase or a list. Combining these letters you get a pronounceable word that other readers and listeners understand. Acronyms are shorthand abbreviations that, over time, become part of everyday language. You've probably seen some of these mixed in with common English texting abbreviations. But what exactly do you mean? Find out by clicking through the following gallery.

Discover your Human Design type and what it means

Attempting to decode the mysterious "why" of our human existence has been a trend since, well, forever. To do so, some look to the subconscious and unconscious mind, and the modalities that help us to understand it better: think astrology, tarot, and other archetypal practices. Human Design is unique in that it combines several ancient systems of wisdom: the I Ching, chakra system, astrology, Kabbalah, and Myers-Briggs (among others); blending them into a single system to produce five different energy types. These energy types each have different ways of relating to—and thriving in—the world. Practicioners believe that by learning to work with your energy type, you can make your life flow more easily. Think of it as learning to swim with the current instead of upstream. Intrigued? Click on to discover your Human Design type and what it means.

Where to travel based on your personality type

The Myers-Briggs personality test has been used for many years to assess people's personalities. It assesses different preferences to determine key aspects of our personality, and its results are often quite accurate. People look for different things when they travel, and these things are often influenced by their attitudes and actions in life. These influence the way they perceive the world and what they enjoy doing during a trip. An introverted person will most likely have a different approach to traveling when compared to an extroverted one, for instance. With this in mind, we've compiled a number of destinations specifically tailored for each Myers-Briggs result. If you haven't taken the test, do so to find the perfect travel destination for your bucket list! Click through the gallery and get to know the best destinations based on your personality type.

Books everyone lies about having read

The older you get, the wiser people assume you are. That’s all good and fine until they want to discuss impressive books. You know the ones: written many years ago, canonized in our culture, etched permanently into the student reading lists. But while you panic and lie about having read whichever extremely long novel you thought you'd escaped after high school, don’t be so hard on yourself. As it turns out, a whole lot of other people are lying about having read those books too. The books people usually lie about reading are the ones considered to be classics, the foundational literature that has changed our world, immovable parts of the social zeitgeist. But who has time to read all those books and also read things written this decade? Maybe you lied because you watched the movie, but we all know that doesn’t count. That being said, there are quite a few cases when the film is actually better than the book. Sometimes you just want to read clear, easy prose, perhaps by writers who have experienced more of the same things you have. It could also be the case that these canonical books just won’t be your cup of tea! That’s a hard thing to accept, especially when you’re tens of thousands of words deep. Few and far between are the people who have actually read all of the classics, and it’s likely they’ll be having too hard of a time keeping the plot lines and characters straight to see through your lies. And there are so many liars! In a poll with more than 83,000 voters, hosted by Ranker, people came clean (anonymously, of course) about the books they lie about having read the most. Check out this gallery to see how you compare.

Products with a lifetime warranty you only need to buy once

Most brands will accept returns of products if they're defective, but offering a comprehensive lifetime guarantee is not something all companies do. Luckily, there are some brands that swear by their products, so much so that they will attest to their quality for the lifetime of the product. This means that consumers can return their products to be repaired or replaced, often years after purchase. It's worth mentioning, however, that exemptions usually apply to these lifetime warranties, including normal wear and tear as well as accidental damage, to name a few.
