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…

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…

People may have been taking selfies 20 years ago (Myspace angles, anyone?) but they definitely weren't taken the same way they are now, whether we're talking about frequency, ease, or more about confidence levels. And while it's nice to get an ego boost on Instagram every now and again, it often seems as though selfies have become compulsive. People will literally take them everywhere, and sometimes, it's an actual problem. Just this past weekend, Twitter user @MariaRMGBNews provided the bird a…

True treasures

There are times to slow down and times to speed up. If you're luxuriating in a delicious bubble bath on a Friday night, it's time to sit back and take your damn time because it won't last forever. If you're working as a lifeguard at your local community pool and you see some suspicious bubbles, you know what to do sport. Consuming memes can lean towards being a speedy activity; you want those memes hot, fresh, and sizzling, and then you want to move on and take in some more memes. As someone wh…

If you told us a few years ago that insane Karens would still be a hot topic, we might not believe you, and we would definitely not want to believe you. Rage filled, entitled people are a plague upon the world, and it seems like that's especially true here in the United State s as well as across the pond in the United Kingdom. During the darkest days of the Covid-19 pandemic, it seemed like mentions of Karens and their insane meltdowns were popping up every hour, so obviously the same is true f…

What was wrong with the original

Just drink a soda

It's rough out there, y'all. And by “out there” I mean the online dating landscape . It's funny that as meeting new people has become easier (with the help of apps like Tinder and Hinge ), it's also gotten harder. While in the old days of Okcupid I was able to message a normal guy, and then meet him for a fun date, nowadays it seems like there are just four trajectories: Option 1) Play pen pals for a couple of weeks and then get unmatched for some unknown reason. Option 2) Meet up for a casual…

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…

Facebook is a unique place. It's used by about 3 billion people globally, and yet the most frequent sentiment I hear is “Crazy that people are still on Facebook.” It's ridiculed in my circles, dismissed as a place where boomers go to fight about politics, humble (or not-so-humble) brag and ask their peers about mystery skin diseases. Sometimes the wildest posts aren't even meant to be posts at all: they're adorable gaffes from senior citizens who simpley don't know how to

Really?

As a food lover, I'm well aware that taste is usually more important than the “look” of a dish. There are plenty of foods that look a lot less appetizing they actually are. The split pea soup I made a couple of days ago, for example, looks like a trough of chunky, yet pasty vomit. Hot dogs don't really look all that hot, and lord knows I've seen more than a few chilis that resemble loose stools rather than a flavorful, pepper-filled dish. The thing is, some people seem to go out of their way to…

Gross

This can't be legal

Ah, “neckbeards.” What's in a name? While the term, at its most literal, refers to dudes whose facial hair seems to gravitate toward the neck and chin, the meaning has shifted over the years. Nowadays, “neckbeard” refers to unsavory dudes you might come across on the internet who are really into stuff like gaming, anime, and comic books. Those interests are all well and good (we love a good comic book or game sesh), but, unfortunately, a lot of neckbeards are also huge misogynists. They tend to…
