If you're of Eastern European heritage, then we're betting that at least some of these memes will make sense to you. Occasionally stereotypes do exist for a reason, after all.
Okay, all of this talk about Eastern Europe has us craving some cabbage rolls and potato pancakes now. Please and thank you.
Unless you're some sort of psycho, seeing a baby board an airplane (or any sort of public transit for that matter) evokes a sinking feeling in most of us. It's kind of crapshoot how it'll behave, after all. Babies are certainly cute, but hearing them scream and cry for several hours straight is pretty much the worst experience ever. How inconsiderate of them.
We know that Millennials aren't all entitled cheapskates (we are Millennials after all) but we have to say that people like British YouTuber Elle Darby make us look really bad.
Darby requested via email a free five-night stay for her and her boyfriend at a hotel in Ireland. Instead of paying the hotel, she would give the business "exposure" - the hotel owner was certainly having none of that and replied to her with a snarky email, which he has since published online. He even went on to ban all social media influencers from his places of business.
Do you think the hotel owner's response was fair or did it go too far? Let us know in the comments!
When Twitter user Matthew Harris tweeted a sketchy photo of a woman sitting in a backless seat on an airplane, it sparked a barrage of parodies and roasts.
The airline, EasyJet, was quick to reply on Twitter, asking Harris to take down the photo so that they could "best assist" his complaints. People on Twitter, however, weren't falling for the budget British airline's BS, and began creating parodies of the tweet.
Fortunately (or perhaps unfortunately, depending on your own personal opinion), it's been reported that these backless seats were actually inoperable on the flight and passengers were not permitted to use them.
However, we've gotta wonder why EasyJet was so quick to get defensive in the Twitter thread. Very suspicious indeed...
We stan couples who know when to maximize their trolling of each other. This girl decided to get some payback when her boyfriend slept through their whole road trip by asking the internet to deliver their best photoshopping skills. We really hope #SleepyScott got as much of a kick out the end results as we did!
Flying is either completely un-noteworthy, or it's the biggest pain in the ass. Getting through security sucks and then you sit around being bored for what seems like hours. And if you're extra "lucky" then you might end up in the aisle seat right next to the bathroom where people are getting up every five seconds and crowding around you and you just want to to trip every singe one of them. (The person writing this totally isn't on an airplane right now. Nope.....)
The world lost a champion of the senses today. Anthony Bourdain, celebrated Chef, author and television personality, took his own life early this morning in Strasbourg, France. Bourdain was no stranger to life's seemingly infinite struggles - he had coped with addiction earlier in his career - and perhaps that was why his utter revelry global food and culture felt so goddamn real.
Bourdain was very vocal in his support for the underrepresented - from Harvey Weinstein's accusers (including his girlfriend, Asia Argento) to marginalized populations of third world countries. He opened peoples eyes, ears, and taste buds in a way not many people can share. His wisdom was not reserved to this egalitarian warmth - the rock and roll boozehound had a keen wit and a filter thinner than cheesecloth. We've put together a collection of some of his best quotes - from sassy tweets to inspirational rants.
Anthony, we're gonna miss you.
