Tiger Mom got depressed and unhealthy when her cubs die shortly after birth, piggies dressed as tigers to the rescue!

The pictures are not from a zoo in California but the Sriracha Tiger Zoo in Thailand, a popular attraction that boasts of 200 tigers, 100,000 crocodiles, trained pigs, elephants, and other animals. The zoo features creative shows and displays of animals including these pictures of an adult tiger with piglets dressed like tiger cubs. One of the goals of the zoo is to demonstrate how animals of different species can live peacefully together. One of the experiments was introducing baby piglets to a mother tiger (who herself had been nursed by a pig) and it worked. At one time the mother tiger nursing piglets was in an enclosure next to an enclosure where a sow was nursing baby tigers. The zoo says those cubs grew faster from the pig’s milk.

The story about the California zoo, the grieving mother tiger, and the orphaned piglets is a hoax that somebody decided to attach to the pictures.

Reminds me of a 75-year-old man who would visit me at my old job!

He would only ever get coffee. He was a lousy tipper. But he was nice enough, asking me about school and the family and everything.. typical old-man conversation with regulars. He would ask me, "you're 18, right? You're definitely 18? Not 17?" Having just turned 18 not long from then, I would say yes.. kind of getting a strange feeling about it. He'd give me his number, saying, "call me if you ever need anything. Day or night." Weird.

Other employees would tell me how this man would leave if I wasn't working that day. My boss would tell me to stay away from him, since he was a creepy perv. So I did.

Finally, one day, during a very busy Father's Day, this man is sitting at the counter as usual. He pulls me aside and says, "I need to tell you something. You need to listen to me.. I have loved you since the first time I spoke to you, I love you now, and I will love you till the day I die."

God, those words are still pressed into my brain. So creepy. All I did was walk away. I had things to do. Since then, I completely avoided him, and the other employees understood. He eventually stopped coming around, thankfully. Ew. Ew. Ew. I'm shuddering at the thought.

I'm someone who LOVES body paint. Every show, every festival, every fun event I go to, I give myself a reason to cover myself in paint, as well as my friends.. I just went to a show on Saturday, decked out in paint, and I realized the next day I left my paint on top of the car and drove away without it. God! It was only $4 paints, but I treasured them. I wanted to use them all summer, and now they're gone. It sounds stupid, but I was so bummed out when I realized the next day I left them behind.

I will never forget when I was a sophomore in high school.. I had a severely-depressed best friend who was threatening to kill herself on a semi-regular basis (she had a pretty awful home life). She would constantly tell me, "I'm going to kill myself. It was nice knowing you. I'll be watching you from heaven. etc." But she would never go through with it.

One night, we were messaging each other on AIM, and she was saying the same suicidal remarks as usual. I would always take what she said seriously, telling her not to do it, even though I knew deep down she never would. She was just crying out for help, and I guess I was the only one who would listen..

Anyway, she said, "I'm serious. I'm done. I'm over it. I hate my life. I'm ending it tonight. I love you so much. I know you mean well, but this isn't the life for me. It's time to go." And she signed off of AIM. I was freaking the fuck out, calling her, messaging her, all that nonsense. No answers. Nothing..

The next day at school (she went to school about a half hour away from me), I couldn't shake the feeling that something terrible happened. I was in my chemistry class, a nervous wreck, not knowing what to do. I stormed out of class, went to the guidance office, and told them what happened. They called my friend's school to see if she was in that day. She wasn't.

I had absolutely broken down at this point. I called my friend's house, and her notoriously bitchy mother answered. I asked her if she knew if her daughter was okay.. she said, "I didn't know she wasn't ok. Is she sick? I'll go find her."

I still to this day don't know exactly what happened to her, but I could hear the surprise in her mom's voice when she called for her. I could make out something about a rope in her closet, that's about it.. I just know she was committed that day to a ward.

Jeez, I get choked up just writing all this down. My friend still has issues, but she's doing much better these days since she moved out from her parent's home. I know I can't always be there to confront my friend's issues, but I'm just glad I could help that one time

reminds me of a story my dad told me... my great-grandfather and his daughter were walking the streets of NYC on a hot day. Both of them start complaining, saying, "god I'm so hungry. I have to eat something. We've been walking all day, we need to stop somewhere." My great-gpop stops at a hot dog stand to get himself a dog. His daughter says, "can I get something, too?" He says, "Ah, you're not hungry."

this is all pretty typical in my family.. very sad.

even though it doesn't happen often, I've heard customers talking to my boss about how good of a job I do. It always makes me happy, and reminds me why I love what I do. Regardless of stressful assholes, it's the nice people, like you, who go out of their way to appreciate the hard work servers do that just makes me so happy.

Oh my god I had a journal like that too. I was just looking at it the other day... I remember it asked me to write a story about me and some friends on an adventure.. I chose to write about dating The Beatles. I was obsessed with Paul, and obviously I chose my 3 other best friends to date the others, and then I go on a tangent about a date with Paul McCartney and how much he loved me.. I think I was 9 or 10 then. So weird.

Ate a weed brownie at a party, was feeling good and decided to pet the dog at the party. Bad idea, the dog was blind and mean, and bit through my winter coat, hoodie, and long sleeved shirt. My arm was bleeding everywhere, and I screamed out of fright. Couldn't feel a thing though, so I was more intrigued by my bloody arm than anything. I still have the scar on my arm today..

A few years ago, I asked my dad to throw me, as a joke. After a minute of considering it, he said yes, even though I kept telling him, "you really don't have to do that. It's ok. Seriously." Regardless, he threw me, threw out his back, and decided to never do it again.. what did he expect from a then-17 year old!?

Haha! I guess those girls must be comfortable enough around each other to shit together. But personally, I don't poop with my friends. That's a personal thing. But I mean, if other girls do it, more power to them I guess..

Ah, there's always that one girl who is brought to a party by a friend of yours. You're nice enough to chat her up, and she ends up sticking by your side since no one else wants to talk to her. That's when you decide to pee and she says, "I'll go with you!"

Bitch, just because I decided to make small talk with you does not mean I want you to watch me pee! Wtf!
