The Five-Second Rule Is a Lie, but You Can Still Eat Food off the Floor

We’ve all used the 5 second rule – when food (or maybe silverware) falls on the floor, but you declare that if it’s retrieved within 5 seconds, it’s safe to eat (with). I have, sadly, worked in restaurants where this rule also applied. On commercial kitchen floors. Yeah. There was a comedian who did a bit...

What’s the absolute worst city you’ve ever been to? A place you had the misfortune of visiting but you never want to return to?

16 “Interesting Gardening” Pictures That Are Way Undersold

When I think that something is “interesting,” I typically use the term as a a mild expression of, well…interest. Not for things that are totally cool and, in some cases, mind blowing.

11 People Share What Happened When the Baby Was Definitely Not the Father’s

“The test determines… you are not the father!” Those situations are kind of funny (and sad) when we see on Maury Povich (those people are actors, right?), but probably not at all funny when they happen in real life.
