Emergency Service Workers Gather To Cheer Up 10-Year-Old Boy By Singing 'Happy Birthday' Outside His Home

I did not think I would be ugly crying today, but I was wrong. Emergency service workers gathered to wish a 10-year-old boy a happy birthday. And, I'm sobbing.


Police and fire crews from Cork gathered outside Rian's house to sing him to him.

“We're not the greatest of singers, but we do our best!" An Garda Siochana tweeted.

“Rian from Cork is 10 yrs old today but hasn't been feeling well lately."

Rian could not leave his house, and would spend his birthday without his friends. So, these responders took it upon themselves to cheer him up.

“To cheer him up the emergency services gathered at a safe distance outside to sing Happy Birthday to him. Happy birthday Rian!"

Twitter loved it.



An officer can be heard promising to take Rian on a walk around his estate after the pandemic is over.

“We can go see your neighbors with the Garda dogs," he said.

All we can say is thank you for everything you do for the community.

Kirk died after an unidentified gunman shot him in the neck as he—ironically enough—mocked victims of gun violence at an event in Utah Valley State University. Kirk's murder has galvanized the far-right, with President Donald Trump and his surrogates claiming without evidence that rhetoric from Democrats is responsible for Kirk's death.

TikToker Hilariously Calls Out Target After Champion Pants Feature Awkwardly-Placed Front Pleat

Sometimes you can just tell when something was designed *for* women, but was not actually designed *by* women.

Take, for instance, the new pleated pants available at Target from the Champion clothing line. While there's nothing wrong with pleated pants and they certainly have a suitable spot in the workplace, the latest rendition of Champion pleated pants are, shall we say, NSFW.

Woman Goes Viral After Revealing How Her Obsession With Matcha Landed Her In The Hospital

Let's be honest: Too much of anything isn't good for us. It's all about the balance!

But the media and social media trends have taught us that certain things are really good for us, encouraging us to be like the "very mindful and very demure" girls and take care of ourselves. One such example is drinking more matcha, especially if you really like coffee or think you have a caffeine addiction.
