Only 7min to add 1 year to life

Only 7min to add 1 year to life

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... ⏰💤

Luxuriously soft, silk... nappies???

Luxuriously soft, silk... nappies???

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.

Fisty cuffs at Starbucks?

Fisty cuffs at Starbucks?

Starbucks released a collectible Bearista Cup in the U.S. last week with some people camping out overnight to get their hands on one. Apparently, supply didn't match demand, as reports of customers fighting for the teddy bear shaped cups went viral. Going for £22.75, they are pretty darn cute though... we kind of want one. 😍🥊

"Your mum did"

"Your mum did"

It's not a playground insult. It's the White House's response when asked who picked the meeting location between US President Trump and Russian President Putin. When challenged the White House doubled down saying its “more than appropriate.”

Ugh, K-Pop Demon Hunters... 그만!

Ugh, K-Pop Demon Hunters... 그만!

We seriously can't get away from this Netflix hit. It's expected to be the No. 1 Halloween costume amongst kids this year. And if that wasn't enough, it's coming to the big screens (in case watching from your phone or tablet didn't suffice) in select theatres across the country starting Halloween day. Btw, 그만 means "enough" in Korean.

Would You Pay £2.5k for 50p?

Would You Pay £2.5k for 50p?

Forget Bitcoin. Apparently, the real money is in 50p coins. One collector forked over £2,556 on eBay for the 2016 limited edition Beatrix Potter coin. That's one seller who’ll never look at pocket change the same way again. 😜

“Even if you’re a girl”

“Even if you’re a girl”

B&Q was forced to apologise after a storage unit on their website had this promising description: "Easy to assemble the cabinet even if you’re a girl.” The product was offered by a 3rd-party seller, which has unsurprisingly now been removed.

Buying back my stolen car

Buying back my stolen car

A man from Solihull had his car stolen, only to accidentally buy it back for £20k while trying to replace it with an exact make & model. His suspicions were confirmed when the GPS history included his and his parents’ addresses. Such a mixed bag of emotions!!!

Fool me twice...

Fool me twice...

Disgraced Billy McFarland, who served time for swindling thousands with the first Fyre Festival, is back promoting Fyre 2. (There's a great Netflix doc called Fyre, which explains what happened.) Tickets to the sequel went on sale last week ranging from $1,400 to $1.1 million!!! Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice...

How to humble brag by boomerasking

How to humble brag by boomerasking

Or please don’t. Boomerasking, as in 'boomerang': when someone asks a seemingly normal question (“What are your weekend plans?), in order to brag about their glam life, when you politely ask in return.
