My attention span lasts exactly as long as this list of memes, anyway.

Lots of parents like to brag about how smart their children are. These parents are all over Twitter, spouting dubious claims about their children's intelligence, their IQs, and even jotting down full quotes to impress netizens with their offspring. One of the best examples has got to be the one from @hinxminx, which before its deletion, read as follows: “'Everyone dies one day. Everyone. Even wolves. But not books. Not words. Words don't die.” - my son, 3, who is a lot smarter than I am ' Prett…

Every battery needs to recharge sometimes.

We like a good clean meme as much as the next person. Simple and relatable ? Sign us up. If we're being honest, however, there's something about a spicy meme - be it raunchy or simply offensive - that really gets our proverbial rocks off. And if the naughty memes have to do with one of our obsessions? Even better. As many of you (if not all of you) are well aware, we're huge fans of The Lord of the Rings books and movies, and the memes that they inspire. So when we came across a meme page that…

There's a reason people crave and dream about bread. Well, there's actually a bunch of reasons. Obviously the carby, comforting food tastes good. It's also versatile: bread can be enjoyed on its own, with a meal, and as a sandwich. You can make it into french toast, or into an indulgent, sweet bread pudding. There are also so many kinds of bread. Every culture has its go-tos. There's pita, lavash, roti, poori, paratha, boules, semolina loaves, tortillas and petite dinner rolls. You can cop brea…

Greetings, compadres. We've got some great news. Everyone can stop whatever they're doing and rejoice because everyone's favorite day of the week is upon us. That's right, it's Tolkien Tuesday . If you know, you know, but if you're new around here, then prepare yourself for an extra dank collection of all the best Lord of the Rings memes the internet has to offer. If you haven't seen the movies? Well, that's a crime that can never be forgiven. Still, there's something for everyone in this batch…

Sorry I'm late.

Greetings, nerds. Not sure if I'm alone in this, but I've been feeling a disturbance in the force. It's a strange feeling, almost like a void that was created over the past couple of weeks, a void that gets larger every day. I search and search through the Disney+ menu for some sort of comfort, and it's nowhere to be found. I tried watching the Eternals , utter garbage. I tried rewatching the Mandalorian . I even tried to distract myself with the insanity of Dr. Strange in the Multiverse of Mad…

When Love Actually came out in theaters, I had just turned fifteen years old. My friends and I were slight anglophiles who worshipped accented singers like Robert Smith and Damon Albarn, and watched period pieces after school. The star-studded cast of Richard Curtis ' Christmas film made a screening a no-brainer. Colin Firth? Hugh Grant? Alan Rickman? Emma Thompson? I mean, come on. All the big names. It was mandatory. We had to see it, so we did and boy, did we love it. Sure, some of the plotl…

Growing up, there are certain animals you're more familiar with than others. Kids love dogs and cats, they love dinosaurs. Some kids are into predators like lions, tigers, and bears, while others prefer animals one might find on a farm, like horses, cows or pigs. As a child, my tastes were a bit more… unique. I flitted between wanting to be an entomologist to wanting to be a marine biologist on the regular. I'd rather pick up rocks and look for bugs, or scout for frogs, toads, newts, and salama…

Growing up my foodie Dad had a huge section of his bookcase that was dedicated to cookbooks. I'd be able to rifle through books about indigenous Colombian cuisine, classic French cookbooks, and gorgeously photographed tomes of food from the Levant. I did notice, however, that he rarely, if ever, used these books. It turns out my parents needed that section not because my dad loves cookbooks, but because people love giving them to him. I wonder what would happen if they bothered to ask what he w…

Let's face it: Not every tweet is going to be a good one. In fact, we'd argue that most tweets willed into existence should never have been composed at all. Thanks to Elon Musk's cringey quest for what he refers to as “free speech,” there's more stupidity on Twitter than ever before. Not everyone has the immense shame and insecurity that I do - a shame that results in a drafts folder

It's finally here. The weekend. Many of you might be going shopping for the holidays , or getting cozy at home making some kind of project meal. I decided that I'll be making my dad's famous chili. It's a flavorful dish full of chunks of braised beef, two kinds of beans, and at least four kinds of peppers. The only problem is I'm not just doing this for fun. I'm doing it because I'm stuck in the house with Covid-19. I'm willing to bet that there are others like me, struck down after a family an…

Spotify dropped its yearly Wrapped feature on Wednesday, November 30th this year, and though it's only been available for two days, the memes and tweets just keep on coming. The yearly event provides users with a cute little slideshow of their listening data. It's only available on the app, and is predictably flashy in its design so that users will be compelled to share all their darkest music-listening secrets on other apps. This year, my Wrapped wasn't exactly embarrassing, but it wasn't “coo…

Hello again, friends! It is high time for us to celebrate. We've nearly made it through yet another fabulous week on our illustrious planet Earth. How does it feel? Well. I'm honestly drained as hell and feel like the life (and what was left of my joy) has been violently and unforgivingly take from of me. And somehow, the long weekend hasn't really helped my mood. How many days off does it take to feel good? The weekly therapy sessions can only do so much to help quell the symptoms of the thank…

Now that the gluttony and ritual of Thanksgiving have come and gone, 'tis finally the season for indulging in Hallmark Christmas/holiday movies. Now, I understand that many of you may consider the “films” (if you can call them that) a low form of entertainment. But gosh darn it, they are predictable! There are not many tropes that compare when it comes to formulaicity, a
