To quote Monica, "seven!" A new study showed that adding 5min of extra sleep per day, 2min of extra brisk physical activity, and another 1/2 serving of veggies can add a full year to your life! I'm all for hitting that snooze button... ⏰💤

Curiously, a traffic mirror at an intersection in Shanghai kept falling out of position, causing multiple fender benders. After some investigation, officials learned a woman across the road kept moving the mirror to improve her home’s "Feng Shui" and ward off bad luck... which looks to have been redirected to unsuspecting cars. Talk about selfish!

A snooker prodigy and toddler, Jude Owens, from Manchester earned two Guinness World Records as the youngest person ever to perform two trick shots. It makes you wonder what you've accomplished in your life, being decades older... 😬😅

In a bid to boost sales despite China’s record low birth rate, P&G is selling super premium Pampers Prestige diapers made with real silk fibres. It turns out that when fewer babies are being born, parents are more than happy to splash out on luxury for their "only child" assets.
A 52yo Portuguese Catholic priest led Mass at a university in Lebanon, then later spun tracks to a sold-out crowd at a Beirut nightclub. With over 2.5 mil Instagram followers, 'Padre Guilherme' (as his fans call him) uses his sets to promote peace and coexistence. I'm not really a club-goer nor Catholic, but I'd be up for checking him out! 💃🏻🎶

That thought may become less fantasy, more reality, when King Charles III visits the White House in April. The WH staff secretary has stated that “more likely than not, he will be hosted in a tent on the South Lawn with porta‐potties.” That's taking the 'porcelain throne' to another level... (FYI, Queen Elizabeth was hosted indoors during her visits with Bush Sr. and Jr.)

A raccoon in Virginia broke into a liquor store, got drunk, and passed out... next to the toilet, because where else would he be? He was taken to an animal shelter to sleep it off and later released back into the woods. And apparently, it's his 3rd offence in the neighbourhood! 🤔😅
During the FIFA World Cup draw, Trump took a moment to urge Americans to start calling the sport 'football' instead of 'soccer.' UGH! Don't you just hate it when you agree with someone you dislike? Trump announced, "We have to come up with another name for the NFL stuff" right after receiving the 'FIFA Peace Prize.' So that's how you persuade him...
A grandmother in Thailand woke up trapped in a coffin that was sent to be cremated! Believing to have died in her sleep, her body was shipped off to a funeral home. Thankfully, she's okay and still alive. But this is my biggest fear, giving me Ryan Reynolds vibes (from Buried) and making me shiver just thinking about it!
