    10 + 2 Hilarious Times WeRateDogs Rated Something that “Wasn’t” a Dog

    WeRateDogs (@dog_rates) is a humour-based twitter account that rates adorable dogs on a scale of 1 to 10 (though most dogs end up exceeding the scale and coming it at 12 or 13). With likely hundreds of thousands of photo submissions coming over the years, WeRateDogs has enjoyed teasing followers by occasionally complaining about pictures of “not” dogs being sent in. Here are 10 of the more entertaining examples plus two actual “dogs”. 1. “Traffic Cone” Dog We only rate dogs. Please don’t send in traffic cones. They’re there for a reason. Just drive around it. Thank you… 13/10 pic.twitter.com/fTomgF6u9A — WeRateDogs® (@dog_rates) February 26, 2020 2. “Golden Carpet Worm”…

    How to Catch a Cheater in the Digital Age

    I was in the middle of a shift at work when I found out I was getting two-timed. It was over a private message from the other woman, via Facebook. This news hit me like a punch to the gut. Back then, I wasn’t the best at concealing my emotions. I’m the type of person that broadcasts every thought that crosses my mind through my facial expressions. My boss caught on quickly that something was up when I was serving tables with a scowl painted across my face. He pulled me into the kitchen and asked what was up. I told him that I just found out I was being…
