These are wild

Everybody has had a bad roommate; if you haven't, you're probably the bad roommate. It is not that hard to clean up after yourself, communicate, and be considerate of the people you live with, yet many people struggle with it. I've heard so many roommate horror stories through the grapevine that are almost hard to believe. Somebody I know lived with someone who peed in the kitchen sink, and she walked in on him doing it. If you are wondering, yes, there were dishes in the sink. I have also hear…

Painful

Let him eat air

As someone who loves food, there are certain combinations that shake me to my core. Pineapple on pizza , surprisingly, is not one of them. Banana on pizza, as they enjoy in Sweden, is another story altogether. While I recoil at that abomination, like I do any at any absurdly cheesy fish dish, there are certain things I enjoy that might make someone else cry out in horror. My affection for cottage cheese topped with salsa definitely falls into that category. I may be alone in terms of that guilt…

Food. We all know we need it to survive, but for us humans, eating has become a whole lot more than just a necessity. Instead, it's shifted from survival to become an experience of shared joy, from snapping pics of our meals for the 'gram to whipping up a feast for our loved ones. But let's be real, sometimes our food choices can be downright gross. I'm talking about those food trends that make you want to gag, or that one friend who insists on putting pineapple on their pizza. And don't even g…

Cooking level 0

It's true that everyone needs to eat to survive. But, as many have noted before us, there are people who eat to live, and then there are the people who live to eat. People like me. In recent years it seems as though a third kind of person has popped up: someone who eats - or cooks - to watch the world burn. You see, these sorts of people are the ones making cringey food , well, a thing. Before the age of TikTok or Reddit, crimes against food were largely private. Now they're everywhere, being m…

Food is a powerful thing. It nourishes us, brings us together as family and friends, and sometimes even inspires us. Food is often treated as art, and chefs are treated like artists. Food also has the power to make us happy , whether it's a bacon, egg, and cheese sandwich while hungover, or a big spoonful of ice cream when you've had an especially oppressive day. Lately, however, we've been marveling at the way food can also make us angry. In fact, it can make us straight-up furious. It's true…

We've said it before, and we'll say it again: People need to stop falling for engagement-baiting food videos. If you think you don't know what we're talking about, I'm sorry, but yes you do. We're referring to those videos where some heavily made-up housewife slathers her kitchen island with nacho cheese as some sort of entertainment hack. We're talking about the bastardization of Italian recipes, and people pouring cheese over things that have no business being so lactose-ified. Unfortunately,…

New anti-smoking PSA just dropped

The cringe is real

It is not hard to be a good roommate. You do your dishes, clean the apartment, avoid being disruptive , and communicate. That's all it takes. Unfortunately, some people cannot execute the most straightforward tenant of being a good roommate, which in my opinion, is doing the dishes. Washing dishes is so easy, and it baffles me that this is one of the most argued-about topics among roommates. On one hand, it makes sense. If your roommate doesn't do their dishes, you will know. The tangible proof…

Children have incredibly creative minds and use this creativity in numerous ways. At my elementary school, the innocents used their childlike wonder to create the grossest monstrosity of food ever concocted. This activity was usually limited to kids who bought lunch at the cafeteria. It's much more complicated to play with peanut butter and jelly sandwiches and carrot sticks than it is to mix school milk with a fruit cocktail. Chicken strip day was always the grossest. People would pour strawbe…
