A delightful dose of double-take

You got some memes for me BOAH?!

We all love feeling nostalgic , thinking about the good old days when everything seemed better, cheaper, and more innocent. We think back to our childhood and wonder what happened to the world—why can't things just go back to the way they were? Well, I hate to be that guy, but things were never actually better, and nostalgia was once considered a mental illness. The term " nostalgia " was first coined in the 17th century by a Swiss doctor named Johannes Hofer, who noticed that Swiss soldiers st…

I'll be honest with you—I really hate life hacks. They started off well, with people sharing clever ways to make life a little easier . But ever since "life hack" videos became insanely viral, we've seen YouTube channels like "5-Minute Crafts," which is probably the worst thing on the internet right now. These channels offer a collection of incredibly dumb life hacks, like fixing a broken screen with toothpaste or using a glue gun to make see-through gloves. But even without these terrible chan…

Whatch'a looking at?

I have mixed feelings about Zoom meetings . On one hand, the convenience is undeniable—rolling out of bed, tossing on a somewhat respectable top, and joining a work meeting without ever leaving the house (let's be real, pajamas may still be the bottom half of my outfit). It's efficient, no commuting required, and I definitely don't miss sitting in traffic just to attend a meeting that could've easily been summarized in an email. But on the other hand, the non-stop video calls can start to feel…

This needs to become a trend— normalize the cringe , embrace it! We all have photos from the past that are absolutely embarrassing. Maybe it's a photo our mom forced us to take when we were small children, maybe it's a yearbook photo exposing how clueless and cringey we were in our formative years, or maybe it's that one time we tried to cut our own hair, and the results were captured for all eternity on film by one of our older siblings. These are the kinds of photos we usually tuck away in so…

It's normal to be weird

I bet you didn’t know it’s National Metric Week, which is celebrated each year during the week containing the 10th of October (see what they did there? 10/10? Because the metric system is all based on 10? Clever!). And the reason you didn’t know about it is that you are either A) using the metric system every day and have no need for National Metric Week, or B) you are an American and will literally use anything other than the metric system. You’ll use feet, stones, grains, football fields, che…

I am a careful driver . The only car accident I was ever involved in was when someone rear-ended me while I was waiting patiently at a red light. The man just didn’t notice the intersection and drove right into my car. It wasn’t my fault in any way. I always drive slowly and carefully, never doing anything that could endanger me or the people around me. The reason for that is because on the very first day I got my driver’s license , I scratched my dad’s car while backing out of the driveway. I…

Memes that even the Sackville-Bagginses will enjoy

We did a lot of things "for the last time" without even realizing it. We had our last visit to Blockbuster , picked our last movie, and it wasn't some big occasion—we just stopped going after that. We had our last LAN party with friends without knowing it at the time (that one really hurts). We also ate and drank things for the last time without realizing they'd disappear from store shelves, and we rode our bikes to our friends' houses for the last time without giving it a second thought . We l…

Halloween might just top the charts as my all-time favorite holiday. Sure, I'm all about the festive cheer of Christmas, and Thanksgiving feasts hold a special place in my heart, but there's an undeniable allure to Halloween. That classic blend of orange and black? Total game-changer! Honestly, I'm tempted to drench my home in those shades all year long. The real charm of Halloween, though, lies in its celebration of the eerie and mysterious . In today's world, everything's become a tad too san…
