Sleep is awesome, it’s recharging your batteries, cools down your brain, so you don’t do anything stupid and is overall vital for our sanity. It’s also one of the biggest time-killers out there, taking about 25-30% of our life on this planet.

Who doesn’t like that warm and fuzzy feeling when you notice someone staring at your X-mas swag, because you’ve cut out a Christmas-tree-shaped hole in your sweater?

The legendary Hanging Garden of Babylon has been recognized as one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World, and the idea of constructing a building that incorporates lush greenery into its design has always excited architects since then. This is why it comes as no surprise that Switzerland – a country celebrated for its design traditions – is planning to build an over-100-meter-tall residential tower that would demonstrate the symbiosis of architecture and nature.

Freckles have always been a debatable topic. Some people make fun of those who have speckled faces while others admire them and would love to have cute sun spots on their own faces.

Too bad we can’t see any of the first origami pieces, since the paper isn’t very good at keeping it together for more than a hundred years or so. The art of folding the paper became popular around 200 years after it boomed in Japan. Since you can use pretty much any kind of paper to make intricate designs, it didn’t take long for people to start using money banknotes. Because why the hell not, right?
