2020’s Hardest Working State

2020’s Hardest Working State

Wallet Hub released its annual list of the hardest working states in America and spoiler: Indiana didn’t win. They looked at things like work hours, employment rates, unused vacation days, how many people have more than one job, and how much we volunteer in our spare time and declared North Dakota this year’s hardest working…MORE

The Newest Quarantine Trend

The Newest Quarantine Trend

I saw a book the other day called How to Not Hate Your Husband After Kids, and evidently we need a pandemic version of this book because divorce rates have skyrocketed since quarantine started. New data from a legal services company found: 1.  The number of people looking for divorces was 34% higher from March…MORE

Indiana’s Favorite French Fry

Indiana’s Favorite French Fry

Someone is living the dream and just got paid to figure out every state’s favorite fast food French fry. In a surprise to no one really, McDonald’s was the overall winner, taking 16 states. Burger King won six and Taco Bell won six so I guess I’m the only one who forgot Taco Bell even…MORE

Cheeseburger Pizza. Really.

Cheeseburger Pizza. Really.

Why, Dominos? WHY???? Domino’s just launched two new pizza mash-ups that sound like nothing anyone actually asked for. One’s a cheeseburger pizza that uses a ketchup and mustard sauce and has ground beef on top, and one’s a taco pizza with chicken, peppers, and taco seasoning. Both pizzas are also topped with American cheese in…MORE

How To Land A Husband Mad Men Style

How To Land A Husband Mad Men Style

Someone unearthed an article from a 1958 issue of McCall’s magazine titled “129 Ways to Get a Husband”, and it. is. fantastic. Some of the highlights include: 1.  “Get a job demonstrating fishing tackle in a sporting goods store.” 2.  “Get lost at a football game.” 3.  “Don’t take a job at a company run…MORE

The #1 Pop Culture Dog

The #1 Pop Culture Dog

The website TheRinger.com has decided on the best dog in pop culture, and weirdly, it’s not Nikki’s dog Marbles (pictured here). Their winner was Beethoven (as in the Saint Bernard from the Beethoven movies, not the dead composer). The runners-up were John Wick’s puppy, Frank the Pug from “Men in Black”, Chance the American Bulldog from “Homeward Bound”, Charlie the…MORE

Weepy, Heartbreaking Tearjerkers We All Need

Weepy, Heartbreaking Tearjerkers We All Need

I maintain no one needs anything along the lines of Nicholas Sparks right now, but apparently not everyone’s trying to bury their feelings. Exhibit A: this list of “weepy, heartbreaking” movies Cosmo put together. Their full list is 50 movies long but I’m lazy so we’ll count to 15 and call it a day. 1.  “Inside…MORE

Harry Styles: Movie Star (Again)

Harry Styles: Movie Star (Again)

I tend to forget Harry Styles was in Dunkirk (mostly because I haven’t seen Dunkirk) so we’ll see if I remember this one. Vértice Cine, a Latin American and European movie distributor, says Harry Styles is set to star in Faster, Cheaper, Better with none other than Brad Pitt. Neither Harry nor Brad have confirmed…MORE

Pumpkin Spice Hard Seltzer

Pumpkin Spice Hard Seltzer

Vive is getting ready to hit us with pumpkin spice hard seltzer. I promise I am not making this up. They’re starting in Kentucky, Ohio, and Tennessee next month so you’re going to have to road trip it to bring it into your life, but my guess is by October it’ll be nationwide. I honestly…MORE

The World’s First Socially Distanced Arena Show

The World’s First Socially Distanced Arena Show

The world’s first socially distanced arena show is a wrap. It went down in England Tuesday with indie musician Sam Fender at The Virgin Money Unity Arena in Newcastle. The arena used to be a horse track and now has a bunch of “pods” several feet apart so you’re away from other groups. It’s definitely…MORE
