You know what they say about interior design - it's all fun and games until someone sticks a toilet in the living room. Designing a home should be like a harmonious dance, each choice flowing into the next, creating a seamless ballet of beauty and function. Instead, it seems some have taken their steps from a hokey-pokey playbook! While we acknowledge that design is a collective effort, involving architects, decorators, and sometimes eccentric homeowners , one has to wonder: at which meeting di…

My mom was a really good cook, she would make us mouth watering meals on a daily basis and I was always excited when she would call us to come and eat. But since I was growing up during the 80s, every now and then she would see a strange new recipe in the paper or in some weird cookbook and she would decide to make us stuff like ‘Chicken wings in cola’ or “Tuna and olive pasta” and we would collectively smile and eat quietly, trying not to hurt her feelings, but she could tell. For some reason…

One of my favorite expressions in the world is “Ludonarrative dissonance”, which sounds very fancy and complicated but is actually just the conflict between the plot of a video game and the actual actions the player preforms during the game. So, for example, Link has to save Hyrule from lord Gannon, who is about to destroy the entire kingdom any second, But on his way to save everyone he stops to collect 900 Korok Seeds because.

The first Legend of Zelda game (you know, the one that was just called The Legend of Zelda ) was my very first virtual adventure . I distinctly remember my 11-year-old self sitting on the floor in front of our "giant" 22-inch TV, completely transported to a different world for hours at a time. I had played quite a few video games by that point, but this was the first time I felt like I was Link. I felt like I was exploring a real land called Hyrule—I knew its forests, its deserts, and its caves…

I can't help it, I love terrible puns and dad jokes . In fact, The worst they are the more I laugh. I don't even think it's the wordplay itself that makes me laugh, it's the fact that someone would sit down and write a wordplay so bad - that's what funny to me. Combine that with these cheesy stock images and the circle of cringe is complete. Well, this time I have for you a collection of terrible puns and dad jokes all revolving around doctors, hospitals and medicine in general. I find these jo…

You know what? I’m not going to be ashamed of it anymore, and I’m just going to say it—I love hotdogs! I know it’s considered one of the lowest forms of food, and I know you should never ask how a hotdog is made because you won’t be able to live with the answer (apparently, it’s made with every piece of meat humans refuse to eat). But I am done hiding! I love them! I will buy a jumbo pack of 50 hotdogs, and if no one else is around, I will finish that pack in about two days. I have even enjoyed…

A screencap for every day in September.

Would you have let your nephew live in a cupboard?

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…

One meme to rule them all, One meme to find them, One meme to bring them all, and in the darkness bind them

You know what's funny? The fact that when we were kids, and also when we were teenagers, we used to groan and cringe whenever our dads told a particularly bad dad joke . And now that we are parents ourselves, we can't help but tell the same stupid jokes to our kids, who groan and cringe just like we did. And it's not that our sense of humor changed once we became parents, The truth is that we always found these jokes funny, we just found our parents cringy! Want some proof? we STILL groan and c…

Sometimes I feel like we were transported to a different universe right after Avengers: Endgame . It's like Tony Stark died, Then we had a global pandemic, then civil unrest, several wars, Betty White Died and mumble rap lives on, but it also seems like we accidentally stepped into a universe where Marvel forgot how to run a cinematic universe. Remember the time when Marvel could do no wrong? When every single movie they produced broke box office records and got both the fans and the critics ex…

Whatch'a looking at?

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…

Buying a new phone or a new computer will always cost a pretty penny but I don't think we appreciate how good we have it today, relative to how things were back when home computing just started. Computers back then were considered a luxury and they cost accordingly. Don't let the prices you see in these ads fool you. At first you look at an ad to a home computer going for 4,495 dollars and you say to yourself “Yes, that's not cheap but it isn't that bad” well, you are not taking inflation into…

here’s just something so special about this 1940s - 1950s retro-futuristic design style. We are absolutely obsessed with it. Everything just looks so... cool—like scenes from a future that never was. Every car looks like a spaceship , and every building looks like it was designed on Mars. This is why The Jetsons is so timeless and why The Incredibles is the most visually interesting movie Pixar has ever made. It’s this design language. And you can throw the Fallout series in there too, even tho…
