I miss Andor . It's a disturbance in the force that's been plaguing me lately. Despite my insistent scouring through the Disney+ menu, solace eludes me. Watching other shows like Beef or Top Chef (never been a huge fan of The Mandalorian) but none seem to fill the void left by the first season of Andor. The Star Wars prequel series, which chronicles Cassian Andor's adventures in the resistance, is one of the best TV shows I've seen in a long time. The action, suspense, and amazing soundtrack ha…

Time is a strange concept, as five minutes can feel like an eternity or pass by in a flash depending on how it is spent. For instance, waiting in line at the DMV or a crowded bar can make five minutes feel like an endless stretch, while enjoying a thrilling ride can make it feel like it went by in a blink of an eye. On the other hand, when used wisely, five minutes can be just the right amount of time. Taking a moment to pet your furry friend before heading out can be a great way to make the mo…

As a business owner, coming up with a solid name for your establishment is pretty damn important. You don't want to be serving burgers as a restaurant called “MacDonalds,” and you probably want to avoid something as basic as “Burger.” You can choose to reference what you're selling, or go by the name of a family member. Some hip spots will take the name of the business that failed at the same location (probably due to gentrification) or some twee combination of animal and tool, like “Stag and S…

Some elegant potty memes to scroll through during your bathroom break.

Twitter is a wild place. For one, it can be an incredibly toxic place. The anonymity that the internet provides is something of a blanket to sinister types who live to antagonize strangers. The trolling, and even straight-up bullying, is everywhere. So why exactly do we spend so much time on the godforsaken site? It could be because we're masochists. But it could also be because there's actually some good mixed in amongst the vitriol. The good comes in the form of clever tweets from comedians (…

Hey, kid. Do you ever feel like you're addicted to memes ? ::scratches neck:: Haha, yeah, me neither. I can stop scrolling at any time, I swear. Okay, it's a problem, I know. But man, these things are truly addictive for me. They give me this rush of adrenaline, or maybe dopamine (or both) and make me feel like I'm on top of the world. And galleries like this one, filled with random memes, get me every time. This particular meme galley has a little bit of everything: Some relatable memes, some…

Welcome to the intersection of nerdy and normie memes. You know, these memes are kind of all over the place. Makes me think of all the chaotic kids who used to just shove papers into their backpacks in grade school (or maybe even later)? Do you yearn to understand how all that chaos and impulsiveness impacted their futures? As a former crammer of papers (my mom hated it), I can say that adulthood has been a struggle , mostly in the organization department. I've been called a hurricane, a tornad…

It's true that some people hate kids. I once worked with someone who was so staunchly anti-child it kind of disturbed me. Sure, it can be argued that it's selfish to bring life into this messed up world. But if you look at it another way, it's absolutely optimistic. There's a chance, even if it's a small one, that if you raise your kid right, they could make that same messed up world a better place. Unfortunately, the internet seems to be making that prospect slightly more unrealistic. Nonethel…

The dating game isn't an easy one. And sometimes, not even the most populous or most specified apps can help you find the companionship (or action) that you're looking for. When Tinder, Hinge, and Bumble fail you, and you don't have any friends setting you up, it's time to resort to some more creative tactics. While that means trying speed dating or signing up for a class for some people, others have some less honest tactics. That's definitely the case for TikToker @coyesimmons_ , who went vira…

It's easy to idealize the past when the present is, um, lacking. Maybe that's why nostalgia is so present in media. We're not just talking about those ‘90s kids memes . We're talking about all the music that

We're firm believers in the fact that people shouldn't need to feel guilty about wanting to look at memes or mess around on their phones. Life is short and often thankless. We're worked to the bone and are granted tiny scraps of time. Scraps of time that end up being devoted to exhausted binge-watching or, even worse, our endless lists of chores. If you want to spend your lunch break scrolling through memes instead of trying to cram more banal work in (like I'm doing right now), go for it. We'r…

'It's just a phase' they said.

We knew that the pump-and-dump schemers of the crypto world were stupid – but sometimes we're still flabbergasted by the idiocy they display on a regular basis on public forums such as Twitter. This week, the crypto grindset bro that most, well, ground our gears was a certain Gavin Mayo (@EarnMayo), who got roasted to a crisp by users of the bird app. See, he thought it would be impressive to share a video of a lighter he had dropped an insane $7k on. “I spent $7000 on a lighter today. We are n…

If there was a degree in procrastination, meme viewing would be one of the 101 courses. It's like the ultimate lazy man's hobby - all you need is a finger that can scroll and a brain that can handle a dose of randomness. See, the beauty of memes is that they don't discriminate - they're for everyone. Whether you're a high-powered CEO or a slovenly, wife-beater-wearing couch potato, memes will always be there to keep you company. They don't judge you for binge-watching TV shows or for finishing…

Happy National Garlic Day, meme lovers - and hopefully, lovers of the potent alliums we absolutely need to put into every dish. To celebrate this joyous day we've written a bit of an ode to garlic bread. Why? Well, because garlic bread might just be the best garlicky dish out there, and also because we're losing brain cells and have to mix things up a bit. Oh garlic bread, how you fill me with delight, Your aroma wafts through the air, a heavenly sight, A perfect combination of bread and garlic…
