Mother's Day is on Sunday, and if you STILL don't have anything planned, maybe this will help guide you . . .   A new survey of moms asked about their favorite ways to spend their free time.   The activity that ranked FIRST is watching movies or TV shows.  That was just ahead of catching up on sleep . . . and doing personal care, like taking a long bath.   Out of the seven activities listed in the survey, the thing that moms like the LEAST is going out to eat.  So maybe that's good news if you haven't [...]

With all the chaos happening in the world, the chance of "world peace" happening within the next century seems firmly entrenched at . . . 0%.   Someone just asked the internet, "What has a 0% chance of happening in the next 50 years?"  And here are some of the best responses:   1.  George R. R. Martin releasing "The Winds of Winter". 2.  Someone said, "Leonardo DiCaprio dating someone born before 2000." 3.  Someone joked, "1982."  And someone else responded, "But sadly 1984 could still happen."  (That's a reference to George Orwell's dystopian novel.) 4.  This person took it more seriously:  "Humans living underwater .

They say I.Q. scores are falling, and here's more proof:  People online are just eating FULL LEMONS now, peel and all.  (???) The first part of this isn't actually dumb.  You might even want to try these if you can find them . . . Some TikTok'er recently discovered a type of lemon you're SUPPOSED to eat whole.  The brand is Lemon Snack, owned by an Italian company.  They're undersized lemons that are sweeter and less sour, with thinner peels. She's skeptical in the video, but tries one and loves it.  Then she sprinkles on salt and chili powder and loves them even more.  (Here's [...]

Sometimes criminals come up with elaborate schemes that are clever . . . and then there's THIS lady. A 39-year-old woman in Pennsylvania was caught in a bizarre scheme where she'd steal from convenience stores, by using a self-checkout and NOT ringing up all the items. For example, she'd scan and pay for a beverage, but steal a couple of sandwiches, which she'd just slip in a bag.  Or she'd pay for two containers of milk, but steal two stuffed animal toys.  Or grab eight bags of "artisan coffee," but only scan four of them, and leave. Then, she'd later come [...]
