And the results, predictably, are hilarious. Seriously, those autocorrect posts have nothing on these – read them and and just tell me you don’t agree. You also might want to make sure your door is closed at the office, because guffaws are imminent. #15. The friendship is strong with this one. #14. Yeah, guessing that...

Way, way back in the year 2000, Steve Pankhurst and Jason Porter co-founded a social networking site in the UK called Friends Reunited. In the days before Facebook, the site gave old friends the opportunity to find one another and reconnect. It was a success, too. It exploded, attracting over 23 million users before being sold...

So, a lot of people don’t really appreciate the Saw movies. They’re often dismissed as gory torture porn, but according to the list below, maybe we haven’t been giving the filmmakers enough credit for their clever insertions of film references (at least in the first movie). Go ahead and insert (heh) your own TWSS there,...

If you’re like me, you don’t even want to know people who claim to not have read or seen the Harry Potter series. It’s not possible that someone can claim such a thing and still have good taste in, well…anything. Right? If you’ve clicked on this link, though, you’re clearly good people. You want to know...

Language. It’s so interesting, and so ingrained in us even before we’re born. We hear and start to acclimate while still in the womb, but what happens when we’re born into one culture and then find ourselves adopted into another (different language included)? Well, a lengthy Canadian study set out to discover exactly that, using a...

Some people might say this book is the saddest thing ever, challenged only by volumes like Where the Red Fern Grows or [Insert Your Favorite Nicholas Sparks Title Here]. I say this is genius, because when you’re single and living alone (happily, of course!), cooking a full-on meal isn’t something that most of us have...

In this week’s installment of the Hashtag Game, Jimmy Fallon asked his viewers to confess things that they feel people would judge them for if they knew they did them on a regular basis. Well…I might be inclined to judge some of these people. Others? I’m just impressed. You decide which is which, from these 15...

There are a lot of jobs out there that no one particularly wants, but most of them just have to get done, even if the “civilized” people among us don’t care to participate. In the 17th, 18th, and 19th centuries, perhaps no job was more necessary – and more reviled – than that of the local Sin Eater....

I know we all take for granted that, every morning and every evening, weathermen will pop up on the television and tell us what to expect in the weather for the next day, week, and sometimes even longer. We’re so used to it, in fact, that we roll our eyes and complain when they’re wrong – not realizing that we...

It might be hard to tell now, but there was a time when Great Britain was covered in forests, and they were filled to the brim with people. Okay, well, if you know anything about Robin Hood and Sherwood Forest, this shouldn’t come as too much of a surprise – though most of us haven’t...

Between the success of The Martian in 2015, the resurgence of dystopian (Hunger Games, Divergent) and zombie fiction in both television and cinema, and this year’s exciting offerings, including Arrival, one thing is clear – science fiction is back in a big way. Whether you’re a fan of the genre, you’ve just realized that it’s completely amazing,...

And oh, boy, do they come through. Make sure your stomach is prepped and ready (ie: preferably empty) to read through these 15 winners! #15. Wil Wheaton wins the Internet. Again. #14. BRB, dying. #RuinAChildrensBook “Curious George “@midnight pic.twitter.com/n4EovH5N5h — ComedianMarioMontes (@MarioMontes65) February 3, 2015 #13. I feel like everyone has had to solve this...

It’s got to be one of the most coveted workplaces in the world, right? Okay, maybe after J.K. Rowling’s house. Or as George R.R. Martin’s assistant. Or, for me, a goat sanctuary. Or, maybe, the Vatican Secret Archives. But as places to work go, the White House must be pretty darn cool. In The Residence,...

That’s right. I said rescue goat. You guys. You have no idea how much I want a goat. People (read: my husband) try to deter me by detailing how destructive and smelly they are, but all I see is hilarity and the ability to put them in tiny pajamas. But today, we’re talking not about...

#10. Hydro Flask Growler Because this is a person who takes tailgating seriously. #9. Franklin Barbeque: A Meat Smoking Manifesto If you’re going to cook for a bunch of people, you might as well do it right. #8. Rocky: The Undisputed Collection A must-have for any sports fan’s collection. #7. Sports Themed Cookie Cutters These...
