“More often than we would care to admit, the desire to impress others motivates our lives. This desire to impress others impacts the cars we drive, the clothes we wear, the technology we embrace, and the careers we choose. Unfortunately, it is often elusive. Cars rust. Fashion changes. Technology advances. And the purchases that impressed your neighbor yesterday make no impression today. As a result, we live our lives with out-of-style clothes, jobs that we hate, skyrocketing personal debt, and jealousy towards our neighbor who seems to have it all… until that unquenchable desire to impress begs us to begin the cycle again. The hard truth is we often look to impress others in all the wrong places. Take a moment and identify the people in your life that truly impress you. What is it about their life that inspires you? Make a list. Very rarely (if ever) is it the car that they drive or the size of their home. Most often, the people that truly inspire us possess the invisible, intangible qualities that we all desire.” —15 Surefire Ways to Impress Others | Becoming Minimalist

I have to admit that the whole idea of self-driving cars kind of freaks me out.

Dutch Man Needs A Bathroom (On Live TV) [VIDEO] → buzzfeed.com

“It’s hard to tell whether this man has a real emergency or if this is just how you pull a Kanye in Holland.”

No way he had a real emergency. This was just a Dutch Kanye :P I love the fact that the host told him which way the bathrooms were though.

Great visualization of the results of a study of the global digital consumer.

(When you click the link it says the requested page doesn’t exist. I don’t know why it does that, but if you go to the homepage, you’ll get the visualization anyway.)
