Bright Side learned more about them, and we can’t wait to share our findings with you!
The Japanese have a long bathing ceremony.
When taking a bath, the Japanese follow a special ritual consisting of several steps. First, they get into the shower to wash off all the dust and sweat and only after that do they have a long luxurious soak in the bath. They may even add green tea and other different herbs into the water which relax the body, cleanse the skin, and tone the mind. The Japanese also carefully select the temperature of the water, it’s important to make it comfortable — not exceeding 40°C — as water that is too hot may lead to moisture loss and opened pores.
They follow old family habits.
The luxury of the morning shower in Japan, as well as throughout the world, didn’t become available until a short time ago. In the 19th century there was no hot water, heating, or indoor plumbing in Japanese homes. So most people had to boil hot water first in order to take a hot bath. This is a very time consuming process! So the general habit of bathing in the evening persisted.
They often visit public baths or hot springs.
Public baths hot springs are popular in Japan. People of different ages come there to not only bathe, but also to relax and spend time doing something pleasurable. It’s possible to say that it’s a kind of entertainment. At night there are usually fewer people, which makes it possible to be alone with your thoughts. Complete relaxation!
They don’t have enough time in the mornings.
The Japanese are real workaholics. About 4.5 million full-time workers in Japan have second jobs, where they work, on average, between 6 and 14 additional hours each week. In addition, in Japan it is very important to be punctual. If you come even a few minutes late, it can be perceived negatively. Therefore, in the morning, the Japanese don’t even have a single free minute.
They are affected by the climate.
Summer in Japan is hot and very humid. Most citizens don’t use their cars, but use public transport instead, and feel the effect of weather on themselves to the fullest. They wouldn’t feel good without a long shower at the end of the day.
In winter, Japanese houses are very cold, because most of them don’t have central air and heat. They go to the bathroom before bed, to not only bathe, but also to warm themselves.

Over the years, the world of cinema has provided us with entertainment, great stories, striking performances, and unforgettable soundtracks. It is impossible to imagine our lives without movies. Thanks to them, our world has been filled with memorable scenes and lines that are part of our daily lives. And not only that: movies have also left us with clothes that have become emblematic in pop culture, and some of them have even became fashionable garments for everyday use.
Bright Side prepared a list of 15 garments that the world of cinema made famous and that, surely, all of our readers will recognize in a split second.
1. Bruce Lee’s yellow suit
The yellow suit worn by Uma Thurman in Kill Bill Volume 1, which has become a movie icon, is actually an homage to Bruce Lee, who wore a similar suit in Game of Death, the movie that the martial arts icon was filming when he tragically passed away. Since the audience of Lee’s film was much smaller than that of Tarantino’s, the movie did not achieve the accolades (either in terms of criticism or audience numbers) that Kill Bill obtained around the world — we can therefore say that the yellow suit became an icon thanks to Kill Bill.
2. The Blues Brothers’ suit, hat, and sunglasses
In 1980, the film by the comic and musical duo The Blues Brothers, portrayed by John Belushi and Dan Aykroyd, began the journey that would turn it into a cult film. John and Dan wore outfits that, for that time, were considered outdated. However, by adding the dark glasses and their crazy, rebellious imprint, they made it part of the modern rock world. We are of course referring to the black suit, the hat, and the dark glasses, which are now considered a classic.
3. A Clockwork Orange’s suspender pants
Directed by Stanley Kubrick and released in 1971, A Clockwork Orange generated controversy for its violent scenes. The movie certainly generated a lot of social criticism, especially among young audiences. The suspender pants, the hat, and the boots became a reference of the world’s countercultural movements.
4. The Flashdance sweatshirt
Flashdance tells the story of a young working-class woman whose dream was to become a dancer. The film became a success both because of the great music and because of the love story that the protagonist had with the owner of the factory where she worked. Jennifer Beals’ shoulder-revealing sweatshirt became popular among young women and teenagers of the time, so much so that it became an enduring trend.
5. John Travolta’s white suit in Saturday Night Fever
The ’70s were the years of disco music, and Saturday Night Fever is, without a doubt, the best example of that trend. The movie was full of love, rebellion, social criticism and, above all, lots of great music and dancing. The soundtrack included some of the most famous songs of the Bee Gees. The dance scene in which John Travolta wears a white suit with a black shirt, made that outfit an icon and a reference to those years.
6. The Ghostbusters’ costume
One of the great successes of the 1980s was Ghostbusters, which was co-scripted by one of its protagonists, Dan Aykroyd, who we mentioned before was a member of The Blues Brothers. The film’s theme song became a pop hit and the garments worn by the Ghostbusters became popular too. The team’s logo, with the ghost crossed out by the red stripe became so popular that young people wore it on T-shirts and sweatshirts.
7. Top Gun’s jacket
Another 80s classic, Top Gun, the movie that launched Tom Cruise to fame and glory, was a total blockbuster in its day. One of the songs on the soundtrack, “Take My Breath Away,” by Berlin, became one of the most famous slow beats of the decade and, together with the film, they both became classics. Tom Cruise’s character turned his sunglasses and jacket into a legendary outfit.
8. Humphrey Bogart’s trench coat and hat from Casablanca
Casablanca is undoubtedly one of the greatest classics of all time, and it is not possible to talk about the history of cinema without mentioning it. It left us with memorable scenes, quotes that we have all heard a thousand times, like, “We will always have Paris,” or “I think this is the beginning of a beautiful friendship,” and “Play it, Sam. Play ’As Time Goes By’.” And that’s not all: Humphrey Bogart’s trench coat and hat have become one with him: it’s very difficult to think of those clothes without the image of the actor coming to mind.
9. Marlon Brando’s tank from A Streetcar Named Desire
A Streetcar Named Desire, based on a play by Tennessee Williams, is another classic of film history. Marlon Brando, its protagonist, was launched to fame wearing this simple yet iconic attire. Brando’s incredible display of sensitive masculinity was perfectly portrayed by his strong arms and delicate hands.
10. Marilyn Monroe’s white dress in The Seven Year Itch
Marilyn Monroe is one of the most iconic women in the history of cinema. Beyond her talent as an actress, her image has marked an era. The slim, sophisticated figure that Hollywood was used to seeing via its female stars, changed forever after Marilyn. It’s impossible to speak of her without remembering the famous scene from The Seven Year Itch, in which her white dress was lifted up and left her legs exposed. It’s perhaps one of the most iconic scenes in the history of cinema.
11. Brad Pitt’s leather jacket from Fight Club
Fight Club told a strange, violent story, full of black humor and disenchantment. At the time, it was a success and, over the years, it earned the status of modern classic. Brad Pitt’s character was a symbol of leadership, sensuality, audacity, and rebellion. Choosing the wardrobe for this character could have been a challenge for designers, but they clearly rose to the occasion, making the jacket he was wearing an iconic piece.
12. Susan Sarandon’s handkerchief and sunglasses from Thelma and Louise
Directed by Ridley Scott, Thelma & Louise was one of the great successes of the 1990s. The film was considered an important symbol, and many women saw in the protagonists the representation of a new type of woman who rebelled against submission and brutality. Interpretations aside, the fact is that both characters became icons of the cinema, and Louise’s scarf and glasses earned their place in our list.
13. Princess Leia’s dress from Star Wars: Episode IV — A New Hope
Of course, this list could not leave out this classic outfit. Princess Leia, played by Carrie Fisher, is one of the most beloved and remembered characters of this sci-fi classic. Her particular hairstyle and her white dress, are without a doubt, true modern symbols.
14. The Joker’s purple suit from Batman: The Dark Knight
For many people, The Dark Knight is the best Batman movie of all time, and truth to be told, it does score 9.0 on IMDb. It’s actually one of the top rated movies on the site. But let’s not forget that the Joker, played by Heath Ledger, was just as important as Batman in this movie. His performance was brilliant and earned him a posthumous Oscar in the Best Supporting Actor category. The character’s insane costume is undoubtedly another icon of cinema and pop culture.
15. Nastassja Kinski’s dress from Paris, Texas
Written by Sam Sheppard and directed by Win Wenders, Paris, Texas is one of the greatest films in the history of cinema. Deep and ascetic, the story of “Travis,” a strange man who is first seen lost in the desert after having spent years away from his family, is one of the great classics of world cinema. The dress worn by Nastassja Kinski in the heartbreaking closing scene is an icon of the world of cinema, especially for film lovers all around the world.
Which of these outfits is the most iconic in pop culture, according to you? Have you worn any of them to a costume party? Do you have a photo to share with us? Share your thoughts and pictures in the comments!

The world is full of mysterious things and sometimes, we don’t even have to go to a museum to find a marvel. But simply finding it isn’t enough — it’s important to understand what this thing actually is. And the Reddit community, with the self-explanatory name “What is this thing?,” solves these everyday puzzles.
While the Bright Side team has rushed away to go looking for mysterious things on their balconies, it’s time to have a look at the findings of these internet users.
“I found this ring while doing some work in the garden. I cleaned it and saw that it doesn’t look like an ordinary ring.”
Answer: This is a mourning ring. The initials belong to the lost loved one.
“My neighbors have placed this on their wall facing into our garden. It looks like a mix between a camera and a speaker.”
Answer: This is an animal repeller.
“I found this in my aunt’s treasure collection. It seems like it has something heavy and metal inside.”
Answer: This is a special tracker pebble used to measure sea currents. People mark it with a number, bury it in a specific place, and then eventually look for it with a metal detector.
“I found this inside a shoe I haven’t worn in a while. What is it?”
Answer: These are Hibiscus or Rose of Sharon seeds.

Cats are very peculiar pets that always like to stand out. They can't just be all about routine and they always have to add a fun touch to everything they do.

Not everyone thinks about height, hair color, or body shape when they think about men’s appeal. In fact, a strong man is someone who is kind, attentive, and persistent, and someone who is ready to share the duties around the house with their wives.
We at Bright Side were really surprised by how kind, powerful, and caring the men from this article are.
“I’m totally 100% awake, 32 hours no sleep, our first night home”
“My boss was inspired by conversations about normalizing periods and period poverty, so he added pads and tampons to our office supply list. Now there’s a cute little basket of pads and tampons in the bathroom.”
“My dad, reading to me in Braille”
“So the other day my dad called me and told me his golden retriever found a baby squirrel that was half alive in the yard. He rescued it and fed it. This is them a few days later. Now It won’t leave his side.”
“My husband and I broke up, and this morning for the first time in 12 years I woke up on Mother’s Day without my sons because they were with their dad.”
I was a touch emotional when my ex texted me and told me to come to his place at 11 AM. I walked in to him cooking me this, flowers, chocolates, and a card.
“My good friend is on a diet. I decided to fry some turkey meatballs and I made a couple for him, but boiled.”
“This is Beebus. Although my ex and I split 2 years ago, she still sends me pictures every day to let me know she’s doing ok.”
Methods you can be proud of
“Wife gave birth last week and this is the first time I’ve been able to play.”
“My exhausted firefighter husband and his partner and best girl, Hurley”
“We’re literally in the same house and my dad still sends me pictures of my cat.”
Good things consist of little things like this.
Not all great artist’s works can be found in museums
There should be books about these people.

And then they summarize all of that in a book which could be transferred to you in 6–9 hours of reading. Peter Thiel’s Silicon Valley experience can be learned through reading Zero to One in 6 hours. Everything Sam Walton learned in creating Walmart can be studied by buying, Made in America, a $5 dollar book written by him. Ray Croc’s findings, struggles, and strategies in creating the McDonald’s empire can be mastered by reading his $3 book Grinding It Out.

In my opinion, books are something to never cheap out on. It doesn’t matter what they are: novels or literature. My father always says the biggest investment that you can make is in yourself. And that is by building up the reservoir of your knowledge, and then gaining more and more. © Vandana Miglani / Quora
Don’t be cheap on house decor.
There is a reason why Marie Kondo, the world-famous Japanese consultant on decluttering the house, thinks that real life starts only after people make their homes a comfortable place to be. And it’s not about having a lot of things at home, it’s about them being in the right places and making their owner happy. Fill your room with the stuff that makes you happy. Candles, lamps, and other decorative elements need to be in harmony with your room and make your home cozy. Home is the one place where you rest at the end of the day. It is a proven fact that the colors and decor you choose has a major impact on your mood. Buying cheap stuff at the dollar shop regularly won’t cut it. © Hirak Bhayani / Quora
Don’t skimp on bed linens.
It’s very bad to skimp on bed linens and it’s not about their appearance. For example, you have a good mattress and a good pillow, but it’s the linen that actually touches your skin. A low thread count can feel itchy on your skin, bad fabrics may cause allergic reactions, and some parasites may appear depending on the fabric. Something that feels nice, soft, and something that allows for air ventilation can’t be cheap. And it’s possible to have just one set — you need to change your bed sheets every 10 days. I will spend a third of my life sleeping. In all likelihood, so will you. Everything that enhances that experience is useful to me. A great bed, luxurious pillows, and a good comforter, along with the finest bed sheets and pillow covers that money can buy. Even though the initial spend might be large, when you divide the number of hours of usage over the life of the product (these things typically last a long time), they are not expensive at all. That third of your life will be spent in the ultimate comfort if you follow my lead. © Garrick Saito / Quora
Don’t buy cheap watches.
A watch is an accessory that shows the taste of the owner. Classic watches are still very popular even though there are lots of different fitness trackers. A good watch can be used for decades and never look out of style. Also, if you wear something you like, it will add that bit of happiness all of us need. Cheap analog watches: You don’t have to buy a Rolex or a Cartier. Buy mid-priced watches priced between $100-250. They have good mechanisms, are good quality, and will last a lifetime. © Bramma S / Quora
All watches show the same time... Agreed, but good expensive watches continue to show the time long after your cheap alternatives die out. A good expensive watch is an asset and must be treated as such. © Bhaskar Ganguly / Quora
Don’t be cheap when it comes to your teeth.
The condition of your teeth can give away your financial situation. Sometimes, the prices for the treatment of teeth are crazy, but you can’t just neglect them. A high price for the services of dentists shows that these professionals are good and that they have all the necessary equipment. Beautiful teeth will make you more confident. You should visit a dentist at least once every 6 months in order not to have to cover your mouth every time you smile. Problems like bad breath, cavities, and other teeth-related issues diminish all your efforts to look good. Some women think that clothes are more important, but they aren’t. A great smile is more valuable than any outfit in the world.
Don’t be cheap when it comes to your rest.
Every person needs a good rest — this is a great way to take a load off your shoulders and restore your inner energy. But in order for your vacation to be really effective, you have to spend it the way you want. Don’t buy a trip to an ancient city if you don’t feel like exploring it. Don’t go to Paris if all you want is to spend a week outside of town in nature. Don’t lie to yourself and don’t look at the Instagram photos — get the rest you want, even if other people don’t think this is the coolest way to do it. For me, a perfect vacation doesn’t have to be near the sea. It’s important for me to be with my family. I actually like traveling around the country. © Sophia Frolova / Thequestion
I went abroad to the sea for 2 weeks with one backpack and a camera. I’m coming back tomorrow and I can say it was probably the best vacation of my entire life. © Podslushano / Vk
Don’t be cheap when it comes to the little things.
The bad mood of a woman comes at a very big cost, so you have to take very good care of your mood and treat yourself once in a while: make spontaneous purchases and experience new things — go to the movies, attend concerts of the bands you love, and go on vacations when you need them. Psychologists believe that if you experience little, everyday limitations, you destroy your personality and you become a victim. Buying something you want right now is a good thing. Don’t be cheap on pleasant things, for example, I don’t even need a lot of things to be happy. The French have a word entretien which means “maintaining your condition.” These are the things you should spend money on. Otherwise, it will cost you much more in the future. © fellici / Livejournal
When you are cheap on yourself, you damage your self-esteem and many days seem blank when you live this way. Girls, do something nice for yourselves. Do something you don’t normally do. Please, do it, because you only live once. © natalia_korobko / Livejournal
Many years ago, a person I trust and value told me, “Don’t be cheap, earn more!” By the way, it’s not about saving money, it’s about being smart about what you buy. Being smart about what you wear means being rational about every purchase you make. © Elena Shipilova / Thequestion
