Going for a morning or evening run is therapeutic for some. The last thing anyone who is running wants to deal with is a disrespectful man.
A woman in Florida dealt with just that, and successfully put the troll in his place.

Michelle Kirk of Fort Lauderdale, Florida, was in the midst of her jog when a man stopped her. He proceeded to give her "advice" on her breasts, saying:
"You need to get a better sports bra because your boobs are sagging and will only sag more if you continue to run."

(Wtf!?)

Anyway, After Michelle Kirk finished with her jog, she sat down at her computer and uploaded a photo of herself with her middle finger up, and posted the following caption on social media:

"To the nasty old man who stopped me mid run to inform me that I need to get a better sports bra because my boobs are sagging and will only sag more if I continue to run...f*ck you. You are the reason why women have insecurities. If you don't like the way my boobs 'sag' when I run, then don't look! I will NEVER stop doing what I love and I love myself way to much to have your hate bring me down!"
After she posted her story, it went viral. Kirk wrote the following in response to the attention:
"I never thought telling my body-shaming story would go viral, but I'm glad it did! If I was able to help even one women realize their beauty and not to listen to any negative things people have to say, then my mission was completed."
My Two Cents

Michelle Kirk of Fort Lauderdale, Florida: You are women's heroine of the month! I salute you! Do your thing!
To the old man who commented on her breasts (which I think are gorgeous by the way), in the words of my hero, Michelle Kirk: F*CK YOU.

Ladies, go on that damn run. Who cares about what some idiot says!?

The tiny home movement has been sweeping the country for the past several years. People yearn for the simplicity of living in a tiny home, and with the way the economy is, it is no wonder the movement has grown so immensely. When it comes to tiny homes, you have the mobile tiny homes, where you can take your home anywhere you want to go. You have Yurts, which are incredible tiny homes to put down your roots in. One type of tiny home that is growing in popularity is a Bodega home. The Bodega is a very nice tiny home. The thing that makes the Bodega different than other tiny homes is that it isn't mobile. So if you plan on living in a Bodega home, make sure you have land to build it on. Your Bodega may cost you anywhere from $15,000 to $25,000 to build. On some Bodega homes, you are able to expand the space for an extra bedroom or home office. Bodega homes can be as small as 65sq feet, and as large as 800sq feet.

We as viewers followed Chef Ramsay as he ventured from restaurant to restaurant trying to save the failing businesses and repair broken relationships. The series aired for 7 seasons before ending in 2014. Since Gordon Ramsay ended 'Kitchen Nightmares,' many fans wonder which restaurants have stood the test of time, and which ones did not. As of right now, the restaurant closure rate stands at a shocking 69%. The restaurants that are still in operation stands at 31%.
