Find someone who loves you like these guys love Chick-fil-A. A college cross country team in New York were hot to find the fast food chicken but didn't have a restaurant nearby. The closest was 90 minutes away, which, a three hour round trip for Chick-fil-A is not the craziest college road trip I've ever [...]
A recent discovery in the British library is throwing etiquette rules back. Way back. Like, the Dark Ages. The book in question, "The boke of curtesy,' beginning, 'Litylle chyldrynne here may y e lere,' f. 58; Miscellaneous historical and other pieces in prose and verse" sought to teach children in over 500 years ago table [...]
It is that most blessed breakfast food day of the year, National Pancake Day! To be fair, it's also Fat Tuesday, Mardi Gras, and Shrove Tuesday, but none of those deal with pancakes!

Maybe you were afraid Freddy was coming after seeing Nightmare on Elm Street, so you refused [...]
The radiation warning sun felt appropriate for this one. A woman with the Twitter handle of @sp00kynugget has gone viral after posting up a three-second video on her account that allegedly shows her taking a bath WITH HOT CHEETOS. IN THE WATER. https://twitter.com/sp00kynugget/status/1228933272626855936 This is a little disgusting, to be [...]
It's hard not to wonder how you're doing as a parent when your child inevitably goes nuclear in the middle of a restaurant because their chicken tenders weren't shaped like dinosaurs. Allegedly. With that in mind, snack food company Pirate's Booty commissioned a study of 2,000 parents of children aged 2-18 to find out not [...]
Rascal Flatts is about to say goodbye (for now), and will make a stop in Kansas City now along the way.

I've got something to look forward to in 2020, it seems. The Unicode Consortium has announced 117 new emojis for this year, which run the gamut from a ninja to blueberries to a seal to an elevator. Helpfully, Emojipedia, which I learned is an actual thing that exists, has the power rankings for the most [...]
