Did you ever see that Simpsons episode where they basically predicted that Donald Trump would one day become US President? It was pretty crazy. But it wasn’t the only time that Matt Groening and his team of writers have struck pay dirt when it comes to psychic predictions. And they’ve done it again! Lady Gaga’s recent performance at Super Bowl LI stunned pretty much everyone who watched it. Her medley of songs, along with some crazy technical effects and wizardry made it into one of the most memorable Super Bowl halftime shows ever. But it was eerily all predicted a full five years…
“Cash Me Outside, Howbow Dah?!” It’s now one of the internet’s most recognisable sentences. A true meme. Uttered by a thirteen year-old girl on Dr. Phil a short time back, it catapulted that young lady to superstardom. The internet went crazy over badly-behaved Danielle Ann and she got crazy famous, crazy quick. And now? She’s coming back! The Facebook page of the Dr. Phil show announced the news recently by posting a kind of teaser trailer along with the words, ‘Look who’s back for round two!’ Since finding fame, she’s hardly been out of the news with a story about…
What happens to the human body when it’s in space? Well, you’d think we’d all know for certain by now, wouldn’t you? What with the amount of astronauts there have been. But while a lot is known, the science on the data isn’t exact. All scientists have been able to do is check what’s happened to someone on their return from space. But how do they know that change or whatever it is wouldn’t have happened anyway…? Say an astronaut walks in space during a year away up there and returns with a stomach ulcer. Did space cause it? The…
Brianne Altice is the ‘hot teacher’ from Utah that has hit the headlines across the state, country and world after her high-profile court case caught the public imagination. Why? Well, she’s an attractive blonde woman, but one who preyed on underage boys for s*x. Oh, and she did so as their teacher… Altice was arrested and later fired from her job working as an English teacher at the Davis High School in Kaysville, Utah back in 2015 and jailed later that year. She has since divorced and – obviously – lost custody of her children. The reason. Three ‘affairs’ or ‘forcible…
With his trademark charm and southern drawl, a few wise words from True Detective and Magic Mike star Matthew McConaughey have gone viral. The content? Well, he’s talking about President Donald Trump and Hollywood’s reaction to him. And he’s talking sense. He was speaking to British journalist and broadcaster Andrew Marr while promoting his new movie Gold and the subject came up. The Interstellar actor’s thoughts? Liberal elite types in LA need to stop preaching their views onto everyday people. “Every single American actor or artsy type who comes over to London dumps on Trump. You all completely hate him.…
The internet is a huge thing. A behemoth beyond the imagination, it’s estimated that just 0.03% of it is indexed by search engines. Imagine that. The internet you know and surf? It’s not even a drop in the ocean. The rest of it? It’s known as ‘The Deep Web’. Don’t confuse it with ‘The Dark Web’, though. The Dark Web is an encrypted network that only exists between Tor servers. A hidden network. The Deep Web is obscured, but accessible. Just not by Google. It’s mostly dead data and vast swathes off useless old web pages. But in amongst it…
Harlow, Essex, England. 92 year-old great-grandmother called Diane Taylor walks to her local liquor store. She enjoys a wee tipple from time to time. A nightcap. A little whisky. So she grabs a bottle of her favourite – Famous Grouse Scotch – and heads to the checkout. Only she’s refused service… Why is she not allowed to leave the store with a bottle of her number one booze? Well, it’s all down to her age. Outrageous, huh? She can’t be TOO OLD to buy alcohol, surely?! Well, no. The guy serving her suspected she was too young! Only without her…
Sleep. We all need it, we all do it, we all enjoy it. But how much of it do we get? And how much sleep do you need? Scientists are often split, but the general rule of thumb is around eight hours a night on average. But – crucially – everyone’s ‘correct’ amount is different. Some people operate better with twelve hours of sleep behind them, others need only as little as five or six. How about waking up? Do you wake up easily? Is it like a movie when you stir? Your alarm clock goes off, you’re upright instantly,…
‘To The Man Doing My Wife…’ Not an opener you’ll read very often for an ad on Craigslist, certainly. Unless you live in Reading, Philadelphia. Where you might well have seen and read and laughed at a quite unusual ad on there written by a man whose wife had been cheating on him… He had found out about the affair and left her. But he wanted to establish a few ground rules with the man who had usurped him at home. But in the most chill way possible. It was quite incredible! They included some brilliant requests like this hilarious…
Gyms. You either love them or hate them. Some people can’t stand them, some have never even stepped foot inside one. Other people? They can’t get enough exercise and virtually live down the gym. Dwayne Johnson is one of those latter sorts. As you can probably tell from his physique! Followers of The Rock’s Instagram feed noticed something weird this week… Right next to his squat rack there’s a TOILET! That’s right. Luckily – for all his puzzled followers – he explained just why. Thankfully it isn’t quite as disgusting a reason as it could have been. But it’s still…
