The post 30 Funniest Tweets Of All Time From Friday (May 15, 2026) appeared first on Pleated Jeans.

Most of the time it was just deer wandering around at 3 a.m., but every now and then you’d get some raccoon doing goblin behavior or a blurry animal photo that looked like a cryptid caught mid-crime.

Trail cams have taught me one important thing: animals are absolute little weirdos when they think nobody’s watching. Here are some of the funniest trail cam pics people managed to capture.

The post 48 Trail Cam Pics That Caught Animals Being Weird Little Guys appeared first on Pleated Jeans.

At the time it just felt normal, but honestly, that little skill has saved me a ton of money and frustration over the years. It also taught me that some of the most useful life skills don’t take years to learn. Sometimes they only take ten minutes and stick with you forever.

That’s what made this Reddit thread so interesting. People shared all kinds of quick lessons and simple skills that ended up being surprisingly useful for life.

The post People Share Skills You Can Learn In 10 Minutes That’ll Be Useful For The Rest Of Your Life appeared first on Pleated Jeans.

These parents, doctors, and nurses in this thread shared the craziest things said during labor, and a shocking number of them sound like rejected sitcom lines.

1.

I walked into a delivery room once and asked “how’s it going?” (just directed to the room in general) and the patient, mid push, grunted out “pretty good how ’bout you?”. I lost it laughing and had to step out for a second to reset. She was awesome.

2.

My wife delivering her first child said “ it hurts can’t you just pull it out”? The doctor not missing a beat says, “He doesn’t have handles“.

3.

I was pushing and my midwife said “whoa she’s got a lot of hair” I said “no I just couldn’t shave”

She was in fact born with a lot of hair.

4.

My baby was sunny side up, and my doctor reached what felt like her whole arm up in there to try to turn her. My epidural had been wearing off, and it was NOT FUN. What came out of my mouth was, “some people LIKE FISTING?!”

The whole room burst out laughing. I probably should have been embarrassed, but I wasn’t and I’m not.

5.

My sister was in labor when the nurse, who had a Texas twang, came in and said “Time to move along!” My sister started laughing hysterically because she thought the nurse said “Time to mow the lawn!” , meaning her pubic hair. The poor nurse looked stricken when my sister told her why she was laughing.

6.

I was an ER tech when a woman came in in full labor thinking her appendix was rupturing. No clue she was pregnant.

A few minutes later she delivered a strong 7 lbs baby. She goes “holy s**t I just had a baby” and passed out cold.

We woke her up and she goes “well what is it?” and the doctor had to check and tell her she had a boy because no one else had yet thought to check.

7.

When I was in labor, the doctor commented how strong my pushes were. My husband said, “And yet, she’s never used this force for evil.”

8.

Dr. enters the room smiling brightly: So, how’s it going?

Me, mid-contraction: Please shut up!

Dr leaves the room still smiling: Alright!

I don’t think it’s the craziest thing he’s ever heard, but I’m still cringeing years later.

9.

Having done practice classes for unmedicated childbirth, my husband and I had been warned that I would likely scream obscenities or blame him, etc., during labor, because it would reveal my raw, primal self.

At the most intense moment, when he was holding me up as a contraction gripped hard enough to make me fall, I looked up at him and said, “I fear this may have been terribly ill-advised.”

It turns out that my most raw, primal self reads too many Victorian novels.

10.

Women delivered a daughter. She shouted out, “awwwww she has my old nose”.

11.

I maybe, definitely bit my husband’s arm during a contraction. He yelped and yelled, “no biting! Gentle teeth!” (He was a preschool teacher at the time)

12.

I had two drug free births. The entire wing of the American hospital learned a lot of Northern Irish curses with the second one.

13.

I was in so much pain so i calmly asked doctor ”could i have lethal injection” and smile, doctor said ”no” and i was like ”oh ok”

14.

During pushing, in between two contractions I said ‘I’d like to go home now please’. Everyone thought it was hilarious.

15.

I pushed for 4 hours and remember being so hot I thought I would faint. I swear steam was coming off my skin. My husband at one point asked if I wanted him to turn down the fan and I said no. A while later (minutes? Hours? What is time when you feel like you are dying?), he asked again. When we got to the 4th ask it was right after a huge contraction and I became deathly calm, looked him in the eye and said “Oh? Are you chilly?” in the iciest voice that has ever come out of me. Everyone in the room stopped and it was completely quiet. He goes “no, no! All fine!”

After the baby arrived, I looked around and everyone was wearing jackets, scarves, and whatever else they had. It was freezing in that room and I didn’t even notice.

16.

Not a medical professional, but my daughter was born at 6:34 p.m. Wheel of Fortune came on at 6:30 p.m. I solved a puzzle on WoF, blurted it out during a contraction. The doctor and nurses turned to look at the TV and they all started laughing.

17.

Midwife here – best Mum was deciding ‘I’m not doing this anymore. I’m going home’ just as the head was visible. She got off the bed & started putting her clothes back on. I ended up delivering the baby crouched on the floor at the doorway about 3 contractions later & mum reverted to typical newly delivered joy.

Dad – baby delivered by ventouse (suction cup to the head) for delayed 2nd stage. Mum asked if was a boy or a girl & poor Dad, taking in the elongated head shape (don’t worry it settles quickly!) & dusky blue colour & blurted out ‘it’s a Smurf’

18.

I was in the middle of strong contractions and the nurse asked me if I was planning to have any more children. I was trying to explain it in as few words as possible that my husband had recently had a vasectomy, so I said, “Not by my husband!”

19.

During my C-section I got to hear the doctor say: “Alright, he’s out! Butt first, like we thought.” Then a surprised noise and “Well, he had his first pee. Good stream too”

So my son came out butt first, screaming, and peed on the staff

20.

My mom asked my dad very calmly to get her shoes during active labor. He was confused, but didn’t dare disobey. He asked her what she needed her shoes for – “I’m going home because I’m not having fun anymore.”v

21.

Not a doctor or nurse but… I donated my placenta for research with my eldest. It’s all a bit of a blur but there was a woman with a clipboard explaining all the marvellous things they were going to do with this placenta.

Which is lovely but she was saying all this between contractions while I was on a pitocin drip with a baby that was back to back. According to my mum I shouted “making a f-ing hat out of it if you want, just stop talking!”.

Not my proudest moment but omg read the room lady. I’d already said you could have it!

22.

I’m not either of those but I have been a woman giving birth.

A nurse walked in and told me to “be quiet it’s scaring the other mothers” and mid contraction I yelled “everyone can eat s**t and d**! This hurts!”.

My next baby after that I told that SAME nurse the sentiment still stands and she needs to leave my room and not return lol

23.

When I had my daughter they botched my epidural so I felt everything. At some point, I yelled out “MY C**T IS TEARING!!!!!” Things in fact did tear, but thankfully, not my c**t. When they were stitching me up afterward (at a teaching hospital), the doctor told the intern “It’s not usually this bad”. Thanks doc.

24.

My partner, chock full of laughing gas, turned and looked at me and said, “I don’t think it’s going to come out.” The nurse said, “Oh honey, it has to.”

25.

Not a doctor/nurse, but while I was delivering my third baby (without an epidural), they asked if I wanted to feel the baby’s head, and I said “OH, I FEEL IT” hahahaha

But honestly, sometimes the funniest person on the site isn’t the one who made the original tweet. It’s the absolute menace in the quote tweets who saw an opportunity and landed a joke so good it completely overshadowed the original post.

There’s an art to a perfect quote tweet. Timing, chaos, and just enough disrespect. These people saw the alley-oop and absolutely slammed it home. Here are some quote tweets that were way funnier than the original tweets they were responding to.

h/t Reddit

I’ve always loved reading, especially the kinds of books that stick in your brain long after you finish the last page.

The books people shared in this Reddit thread aren’t just entertaining, they’re the kind that genuinely change the way you see yourself, other people, and the world around you.

I’ve actually read a surprising number of these myself, and a few of them absolutely changed the way I lived my life and looked at things.

If you’re looking for your next meaningful read, this is a pretty solid place to start.

1. The War of Art by Steven Pressfield (2002)

I actually read The War of Art a few years ago when I was really struggling with procrastination, and it hit me harder than I expected. It’s not super long, and it’s written in this really straightforward, almost no-nonsense way. But the whole idea about “Resistance,” that sneaky force that stops you from doing the things you actually care about, really clicked for me. It made me realize how often I was making excuses without even noticing. Pressfield’s message is simple but powerful: show up, do the work, and stop waiting for motivation to magically appear.

Others were quick to follow, with one person commenting, “The War of Art is the only book I have ever read more than once. Well worth the read” and another said, “Do The Work is a solid follow up to it. It’s short and to the point. Can easily listen to the audiobook in one sitting when you need a boost to GSD (get sh*t done). It’s 90 min.”

2. The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People by Stephen R. Covey (1989)

A lot of people in the thread brought up The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People, which honestly didn’t surprise me. It’s one of those books that has stuck around for decades because the advice still holds up. The core message is pretty simple: focus on what you can control, live according to your values, and be intentional about how you approach life and relationships.

One commented, “If I wanted to suggest the ONE book anyone to read in their lifetime, it is it. The idea is simple—be proactive, live by your values, and focus on what’s in your control. It will change the way you think and approach life.”

Another agreed, writing, “7 Habits also changed my life years ago by making my interpersonal relationships better, even though it doesn’t talk much about it. The book just motivated me to be my authentic self, increase my self-worth, and hence improved my relationship with others as a side effect. I had also read how to win friends and influence people at that similar period, but that book didn’t add any value as much as 7 Habits did.”

3. If the World Were a Village by David J. Smith (2002)

One of the more unexpected picks in the thread was If the World Were a Village, a children’s book that imagines the world’s billions of people as a village of just 100. It’s a simple concept, but apparently a powerful one. A lot of people said it completely changed the way they looked at privilege, inequality, and the reality of life for most people around the world.

One person describes it as a “short picture book, but [one that] completely changed how I see the life, world.”

They continue, “I was shocked how fortunate I was compared to all other people who do not even have basic food and water, and at the time, I was so ashamed that I took it for granted. Since then, I’ve traveled around the world, trying to interact with local people, and I try to learn about the history and the reality of these locations. (And I learned English to communicate.) I would not be who I am today without that book.”

4. The Anatomy of Anxiety by Ellen Vora (2022)

As someone who’s dealt with anxiety pretty much my entire life, The Anatomy of Anxiety really hit me at the right time. One thing I appreciated about Dr. Ellen Vora’s approach is that she doesn’t treat anxiety like some personal failure. She breaks down how it shows up in both the mind and body, and explains it in a way that actually made me feel less trapped by it. The book gave me a lot of comfort, but also practical direction on things I could actually do to improve my mental health.

“Before reading this book, I’d been focusing lopsidedly on the spiritual side and suffering from years of anxiety problems and panic attacks,” writes one Reddit user. “This book is a turning point for me, enabling me to view the mechanism of anxiety in the body more objectively.”

5. Flowers for Algernon by Daniel Keyes (1966)

Flowers for Algernon started out as an award-winning short story before becoming one of the most emotionally devastating books a lot of readers have ever picked up. The novel explores intelligence, loneliness, happiness, and the way society treats people it views as “less than.” Even though it was first published decades ago, the themes still hit incredibly hard today.

One person commented that the novel “really made me think about how we all judge and treat other people, especially how we as humans look down on other people in different, subtle ways. It actually made me sick in a way I’ll never forget” and “completely changed my view on how we treat ‘slow’ people. It’s so profound, because it’s such a short text, but it just hits you like a bullet train. I never cried so much after reading a book before.”

6. Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance by Robert M. Pirsig (1947)

I first read Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance as a teenager, and even though I’ve never ridden a motorcycle in my life, the book completely pulled me in. It’s technically about a father and son taking a motorcycle trip across the country, but it’s really about searching for meaning, identity, and what makes life feel worthwhile. I’ve reread it a few times over the years, and every time I get something different out of it.

“I can’t fully describe the feeling. Part of my love was his concept of ‘quality’ and it almost becomes religion-like,” commented one person. “It’s been probably 25 years since I read it. I should read it again.”

7. Ishmael by Daniel Quinn (1992)

Ishmael came up multiple times in the thread, and a lot of readers said it completely changed the way they viewed humanity’s relationship with the planet and with each other. The philosophical novel is framed as a long conversation between two characters, with author Daniel Quinn questioning the idea that humans are meant to dominate the natural world at all costs.

“The metaphor about society being a faulty plane that is falling off a cliff but thinks it’s flying simply because it hasn’t hit the ground yet has always stuck with me,” wrote one Reddit user of the philosophical novel.

Another user echoed their praise, writing: “I read a ton of self-help, and all the ones mentioned in this thread I have rolled my eyes at because they reiterate common thought trends with an occasional light bulb moment. Not to say they aren’t helpful, just not necessarily ‘change my life’ kind of books. Ishmael made me THINK and put life in perspective. It was the book that changed my conservative thinking to a very much empathy based way of living with intention.”

8. Meditations by Marcus Aurelius (161-180)

I keep a copy of Meditations nearby pretty much all the time because it’s one of those books you can randomly open to any page and immediately find something meaningful. I’ve reread parts of it over and over through different stages of my life, and honestly, a lot of the framework I try to live by comes from this book. The fact that these thoughts were written nearly 2,000 years ago by a Roman emperor somehow makes it even more impressive.

One reader commented, “Some of the best thoughts on how to live and grow, and how to deal with adversity, mortality, and impermanence. Dude was pretty in touch with the universal human condition for an Emperor.”

Another person replied, “I think I really need to give a copy of this to my brother… It really helped me out, and I think I see him struggling with things that could be easier for him with some tools he could gain from this.”

9. Radical Acceptance by Tara Brach (2004)

Radical Acceptance earned a lot of praise in the thread from readers who said it genuinely helped change the way they treated themselves and processed difficult emotions. The book focuses on self-compassion, mindfulness, and learning how to stop fighting yourself all the time, which clearly resonated with a lot of people.

Even beloved Buddhist teacher Thich Nhat Hanh praised the book, writing, “Radical Acceptance offers us an invitation to embrace ourselves with all our pain, fear, and anxieties, and to step lightly yet firmly on the path of understanding and compassion.”

Similarly, people on the thread sung its praises, writing, “Her RAIN method has literally saved my life and changed my perspective on how I interact with the world and how I treat myself. Thanks to her, I’m heading into a new chapter where trauma doesn’t rule my life,” and “This book helped me tremendously while navigating hard personal situations, including terminal disease in my family.”

10. The Power of Your Subconscious Mind by Joseph Murphy (1963)

One reader said this book, which explores the idea that our subconscious thoughts shape much of our reality, had a huge impact on the way they approached life and personal goals. Even people who might normally be skeptical of self-help or manifestation-style thinking seemed to connect with its core message about mindset, belief, and intention.

“I’m a pragmatic person and would question this book would it be introduced to me now instead of when my mind was more open,” they begin. “Maybe it works because it makes you believe that all it takes is a wish and some work… I read it when I was about 15 and have had many things I wished for happen.”

11. Siddhartha by Herman Hesse (1922)

Siddhartha follows the spiritual journey of a man searching for meaning during the time of the Buddha, and despite being first published over a century ago, it still resonates deeply with modern readers. Rather than offering easy answers, the novel explores self-discovery, suffering, wisdom, and the idea that people often have to find their own path through life instead of following someone else’s.

One user writes, “We sometimes find ourselves most lost when we stop believing other people are going to be able to give us the mentorship we need. Often, literature can teach what straightforward non-fiction texts can’t.”

12. Love Yourself Like Your Life Depends on It by Kamal Ravikant (2020)

One reader said Love Yourself Like Your Life Depends on It completely changed the way they viewed self-worth and personal healing. The book focuses on the idea that self-love isn’t selfish or embarrassing, but something foundational that affects every other part of your life.

As they put it, the book “brought home how essential self-love is, and that it isn’t indulgent or narcissistic. It’s the foundation that makes everything else possible.”

13. The Little Prince by Antoine de Saint-Exupéry (1943)

The Little Prince is one of those books that stays with people for their entire lives, and I totally get why. My mom used to read it to me when I was a kid, and parts of it still pop into my head all these years later. On the surface it feels like a simple children’s story, but it has so much to say about imagination, adulthood, loneliness, and the way people see the world differently.

One Redditor especially connected with the famous drawing scene, writing: “The part in The Little Prince where the adult looks at his drawing and thinks it’s a top hat and the kid says ‘no, it’s a picture of a snake that just ate an elephant’ really helped little kid me understand how people can see the same things so differently. It seems small now, but as a little kid it’s hard to understand why adults ‘don’t get it’ when it seems obvious to kids. That helped me have patience for my parents/adults, and I think I carried it with me as a beginner builder of compassion for people in general.”

14. Get It Done by Aylet Fishbach (2022)

The final recommendation in the thread came from a reader who said psychologist and behavioral scientist Ayelet Fishbach’s book completely changed the way they approached time management, motivation, and burnout. Instead of treating rest and productivity as opposites, the book apparently helped reframe them as things that actually work together.

As they explained, the book “changed the way I think about how I manage my time and myself. I rarely think of ‘recovery’ and ‘productivity’ in the same sentence, and generally think in terms of opportunity costs or how to best use my time.”

15. The 12 Week Year by Brian P. Moran and Michael Lennington (2013)

The 12 Week Year was recommended by readers who said it completely changed the way they approached goals, productivity, and time management. Instead of thinking in giant year-long timelines that are easy to procrastinate away, the book breaks goals into focused 12-week stretches designed to create urgency and momentum. A lot of people said the shorter time frame helped them stop endlessly planning and actually start taking action.

One commenter wrote, “It completely changed how I view time. A year is too long to stay focused, but 12 weeks? That’s war mode. It forces action and kills procrastination. It made me realize how much time I was wasting ‘planning’ instead of executing.”

The post 31 Work Tweets From This Week That Are A Lot Funnier Now That The Workweek Is Over appeared first on Pleated Jeans.

People in 1964 were just living—going to diners, driving cars with fins, wearing suits to baseball games for some reason.

They had no idea they’d end up as “vintage content” one day. They were just existing in their present, which happened to look completely different from ours.

I think that’s what makes these nostalgic photos interesting. Not in a “things were better back then” way, but in a “huh, that’s what a regular Tuesday looked like in 1964” way.

The fashion’s different, the cars are different, even the way people stand feels different somehow. But they’re still just people doing people things—working, hanging out, getting through the week.

These are photos from 1964, back when this was just normal life.

I’ve been happily married for years, and most of the time it’s great. But every now and then you get those moments where you realize just how different two people can be while sharing the same space. And somehow, that’s part of what makes it work.
