Best. Grandpa. Ever.

Even with an internet teeming with wholesome stories of grandparents doing adorable things, this one really takes the cake.

One grandpa decided to get a little creative when he discovered a set of Peppa Pig toys sneakily hidden away in his luggage by his granddaughter by documenting the entire vacation from their point of view.

A video capturing him in the act has now gone viral, with people absolutely invested in the impromptu Peppa Pig adventure.

Tanya Marie, the man’s daughter, posted the video to TikTok, explaining, “My niece took her favorite toys and packed them into my dad’s luggage.”

“He has been making this story of all their adventures for her, and he’s gonna play it for her when he gets back,” she says as grandpa makes the figures go for a quick dip in the pool.

“Don’t go too far off in the middle!” he warns the toys.

After a little sunbathing, the Peppa Pig family accompanies grandpa to a little fine dining. “We’re going to have a fancy meal here,” he says to them as he films. “We better be on best behavior! Don’t drink too much!”

Cut to another dinner, where grandpa shares how he “can’t wait to go down to the beach with them, bring them out there, bring a little napkin, lay them down.” Clearly, he is having so, so much fun doing this.

Best grandpa award goes to you dad🥹🫶🏾 #storytime #familyvacation #peppapig #familytrip #grandparents


As everyone bids adieu to the Airbnb in the final clip, grandpa places the toys on a small stone wall to give them one last shot. A natural cinematographer, he starts his camera phone close before yelling, “Pan out!” to get a wider view.

“Pan out?! I’m dying,” his daughter quips. In her video's caption, she also wrote, "Best grandpa award goes to you dad."

The video has racked up over 11 million views and has people gushing about how freaking adorable, sweet, heartwarming [insert every single positive adjective here] this grandpa was for creating his little passion project.

“Priceless. This could choke anyone up,” one person wrote.

Even the official Peppa Pig TikTok account called him “the most oinktastic grandpa.”

So many people expressed interest in seeing the final product that Marie posted a follow-up video saying that not only would it be shared, but that she was inspired to create an epic Peppa Pig-themed viewing party for her niece, buying “all the pig gear” that she could find to heighten the surprise.

If you wanna tune in on all the epic wholesomeness, you can follow Tanya Marie here.

Our home, from space.

Sixty-one years ago, Yuri Gagarin became the first human to make it into space and probably the first to experience what scientists now call the "overview effect." This change occurs when people see the world from far above and notice that it’s a place where “borders are invisible, where racial, religious and economic strife are nowhere to be seen.”

The overview effect makes man’s squabbles with one another seem incredibly petty and presents the planet as it truly is, one interconnected organism.

Just another unsolved mystery

Who doesn’t like a good mystery?

A video creator known as @katherout certainly does. At the gym Kath frequents, there’s a whiteboard with a revolving prompt with simple questions like “What are you listening to?” or “What city were you born in?” Gym goers then write their responses anonymously on the board.

Kath recently became enthralled—and tickled—by a person who somehow manage to write the word “monke” (as in the word describing a group of monkeys, apparently) on every single one of their answers.

How bizarre, how bizarre.

It should go without saying that it’s not cool to steal from your Airbnb. But that doesn’t mean it doesn’t still happen.

However, when one Airbnb host recently discovered a guest had—for some strange reason—stolen one of her paintings, then replaced it with a completely different painting, she decided to make the best out of a very uncool situation by sharing the story on TikTok.

As a result, viewers got to witness an continuously unraveling, truly bizarre modern-day art heist.

Okay, let’s get into it.

11-year-old girl is the youngest opera singer in the world.

The majority of 11-year-olds are perfectly content balancing the pre-teen life with Barbie dolls and tinted lipgloss. But one pre-teen is busy breaking records. Victory Brinker is an 11-year-old opera prodigy who was entered into the Guinness Book of World Records as the world's youngest opera singer in 2019 when she was almost 8 years old.

If you like opera—or even if you don't—hearing her vocal range of three octaves and voice control is impressive. When it comes to singing, control of your breath, pitch and tone can be difficult, especially when you're without years of classical training. Victory's skill is so impressive that when she appeared on America's Got Talent last year, she was given the "golden buzzer," which sends you straight to the finalist round in Hollywood.

Brianna Greenfield makes nachos for her husband.

A viral video showing a woman preparing nachos for her "picky" spouse after he refused to eat the salmon dinner she cooked has sparked a contentious debate on TikTok. The video was shared on April 26 by Brianna Greenfield (@themamabrianna on TikTok) and has since earned over 2.5 million views.

Brianna is a mother of two who lives in Iowa.

The video starts with Brianna grating a massive hunk of cheese with a caption that reads: “My husband didn’t eat the dinner that I made…So let’s make him some nachos.”

“If I don’t feed him, he literally won’t eat,” she wrote. “This used to irritate me. Now I just blame his mother for never making him try salmon,” Greenfield wrote. The video features Meghan Trainor’s single “Mother” playing in the background.

Now THAT'S a deal.

Let's be real—buying secondhand allows us to save a few bucks, which is great. But the real thrill is the possibility of snagging that ultra-rare, one-of-a-kind item that’s worth a bajillion times more than we originally paid for it. Yes, that kind of shopping is a lottery unto itself. But man, what a jackpot, should you win.

And of course, it’s not a totally far-fetched fantasy. Costly things get thrown out or donated all the time, ready to be procured at the nearby thrift store, garage sale…

…or, in this case, Facebook Marketplace.
