Maisie Williams goes on a Twitter rant after reading season 7 scripts: 'holy balls.'

Arya totally killed season six, and although season seven is slated to be the shortest Game of Thrones season yet (and won't come out until summer 2017), Maisie Williams is already stoking the flames of hype.

To avoid spoilers, there's no need to speculate what she could possibly mean—yet. Before you know it, the internet will become a living, fire-breathing Game of Thrones hype machine. For now, it's enough to know that next season's worth the wait.

Williams also followed up her tweet rant with this piece of pertinent information:

Maisie Williams is cool.


Prince William talks to grieving boy about Princess Diana and now you're crying.

On a royal visit to Keech Hospice Care in Luton, England, Prince William opened up about his mother's death in order to comfort a 14-year-old boy who recently lost his own mother.

"Time makes it easier," he told Ben Hines, whose mother Alexandra passed away from cancer in 2015, "I know how you feel. I still miss my mother every day—and it's 20 years after she died."

Prince William's mother, Princess Diana, died when he was 15.

The Duke of Cambridge and future King of England continued, opening up about how important it is to open up.

"As four boys, you have to talk a lot better, we're not good sharers. It's a classic example of lots of talking needed," he told Ben, who is the youngest of three brothers, "The important thing is to talk about it as a family, it's okay to feel sad, it's okay for you to miss her."

"Promise me you will talk to each other," he said.

Hines's father, Gary Hines, told the BBC that Prince William "gave Ben his absolute attention. You could see that it struck a chord with him."

William and Kate met with more mourners at the hospice facility. Fiona Coniam, a palliative care nurse, told reporters that her son Ethan, whose brother Kieran passed away at age 10 in October 2014, shared his own comforting moment with Kate.

"Ethan said, 'Excuse me Kate, can I have hug?' She said, 'Yes of course – I love cuddles.' Then she asked Jamie if he would like a hug as well."

Proud dad Michael Phelps showed up on 'America's Got Talent' and the crowd went feral.

Human fish hybrid Michael Phelps co-hosted an episode of America's Got Talent and received a standing ovation from the audience and the judges, because he's got more talent in one flipper finger than most people have in their whole bodies.

The winner of a bazillion Olympic gold medals told AGT host and Mariah Carey divorce survivor Nick Cannon how happy he was that his baby son Boomer (real name: Boomer) was able to watch him as he raced. He also revealed his personal recipe for success: a combination of dreaming big, setting goals, and hating to lose. See kids? That's all it takes! Having shoulders like an XL coat hanger probably doesn't hurt either.

Blac Chyna (née Angela Renée White) has already said she'll change her name to Angela Kardashian after marrying her fiancé​ Rob. Now she's taken another step towards officially becoming a Kardashian—namely, looking like one.

The previously blond Chyna posted an Instagram showing the results of her makeover, and hmmm—she looks vaguely, a little bit, just a tad like Kim Kardashian, no?

For reference, here's Chyna before the makeover:

What's next for Chyna on her road to komplete Kardashification? She's already got the art of selfies down pat.

Actually, she's already like a Kardashian in a number of ways—lots of money, curvy body, and nobody's really sure why she's famous. It's almost like Rob is marrying his own sister.

8 sexy jams you should make sweet, sweet love to before summer ends.

A great playlist can really help set the mood, and (hopefully) set everyone up for success in the bedroom. Every great sex playlist needs a mix of tracks with varying moods and beats, and this list has it covered. There are just a few weeks left of summer, so fire up your sound system, then fire up yourselves. The rest is up to you.

1. Sex With Me - Rihanna

It doesn't get much more straightforward than this. This track is on the deluxe version of Rihanna's ANTI album released earlier this year. It's a slow, smooth way to kick off your sexy time playlist.

2. This is What You Came For - Calvin Harris ft. Rihanna

Speaking of Rihanna, she's also featured on this Calvin Harris track. This is What You Came For is Calvin Harris is probably working on updating all his romantic playlists after a very public breakup with Taylor Swift.

3. Say it Again - Frances

This song is melodic but packs a punch, and even sounds a bit soulful. Not too sappy, not too fast. Perfect for a night with your summer fling.

4. One Dance - Drake ft. Wizkid, Kyla

"Multiple dances" in the bedroom are great if you're lucky and extremely gifted, but for most of us, one dance does the trick. This jam by Drake features smooth, measured singing over a slightly upbeat rhythm.

5. Let Me Love You - DJ Snake ft. Justin Bieber

Forget for a minute that the Biebs is featured on this track, and focus instead on how funny it is that an artist named DJ Snake is on your sex playlist. It's actually a very classy song, and a good one to keep around for all your future sex playlists.

6. Into You - Ariana Grande

"Into You" is great for the club, but it's also quite appropriate for the bedroom. It finishes strong, and hopefully everyone listening to it does too. Ariana Grande has had quite a summer, and she wants you to do the same.

7. Gold - Kiiara

Kiiara is an up and coming electropop artist. By the sound of this track, she's going to continue to rise. The chorus has a really unique beat, so it's perfect for trying out all the weird new moves your significant other has been requesting.

8. Best to You - Blood Orange

Blood Orange released his third album, Freetown Sound, in June. It received solid reviews, and hopefully "Best to You" will help you receive solid reviews (wink wink). The upbeat tempos are dreamy, fun, and a bit trippy, so it's perfect for sexy times.

Undercover journalist exposes whether wedding vendors really do rip you off.

The Today Show's Jeff Rossen went undercover for a "Rossen Reports" segment investigating whether or not vendors' long-rumored "wedding markup" is real or just a myth. Accompanied by a hidden camera, Rossen told a venue, a photographer, and a DJ that he was planning a birthday party. Meanwhile, producer Lindsey Bomnin, would contact the same venue, photographer, and DJ, and tell them she was planning a wedding, keeping the date and the number of guests the same.

The venue gave Rossen and Bomnin the same price. The photographer quoted a price just $50 higher to Bomnin for the wedding than the one he offered to Rossen for a birthday party. But the price discrepancy for the DJ was substantial: birthday party $1,650 versus wedding $2,496.50. The DJ company later explained that the difference in price was due to the nature of the events—weddings require more attention to detail and the DJs have to be specially trained.

Rossen recommended that people planning weddings try the same experiment to see what kind of price differences they encounter. Meanwhile, anyone throwing a birthday party with a fancy cocktail hour and DJ, please feel free to invite me, because clearly you know how to party.

6 exclusive tips from Dr. Pimple Popper to help you pop like a pro.

This week I got a chance to talk with the queen of pus Dr. Pimple Popper Sandra Lee, who confessed she's been peeping some of your amateur popping videos. And guess what? You're not a licensed dermatologist.

Fortunately, that doesn't mean that every pimple needs to see a doctor. Dr. Lee gave us the exclusive on six simple tips if you must bust at home.

1. Stay clean and sober.

Dr. Lee is watching you make mistakes. She told us she sees "people doing it with no gloves."

Just in their bathroom or their living room. I don't think that its necessarily a mistake, per se, but obviously the most important thing is cleanliness. A lot of the time people are drunk doing it, or they just don't have clean hands. They're not using gloves they're using paper towels to wipe away debris.

2. Pick your moment before your face.

Don't go to the zits, let them come to you.

Apply warm compresses and be patient with it, it will come to a head. And that's when you want to take a sterile needle and nick the surface. Use some gentle pressure on the area around it to try to express the pus.

3. "Know when to stop."

Don't pick too much. It's hard to keep your hands off it if you have a nice ripe pimple ready to pop, certainly, but know when to stop. Don't gouge your skin deeply, because that's when you risk infection and scarring.

4. Prep those blackheads.

The best time to extract blackheads is after a shower or a steam because it's looser, it softens up, it's more moist, it's easier to extract.

Now THIS is what you call a Blackhead Field of Dreams👌🏼Link in bio to full YT video :) #drpimplepopper #blackheads

A video posted by Sandra Lee, MD Dermatology (@drpimplepopper) on

What comes next is straight out of the Pimple Popper textbook: use a comedone extractor instead of your fingers.

I use a Schamberg type comedone extractor and I don't really scrape against the skin, I push down and apply a pressure circumferentially around the area.

5. If you have a cyst, go pro.

"I don't recommend people remove [cysts] themselves." she told us.

Hmmm... I have a cyst sense that these are not lipomas.. #sixthsense #drpimplepopper

A photo posted by Sandra Lee, MD Dermatology (@drpimplepopper) on

But, obviously when you're wasted and popping you're gonna do what you're gonna do, so just remember to finish the job.

They have to remove the cyst entirely if they want it to not come back. They're probably much more prone infection and things like that.

6. Remember that we are all special snowflakes.

There is no one way to good skin health.

We all have a different skin type. Your regimen is not necessarily the same as your friend's or even other people in your family. Don't feel like you have to moisturize if your skin doesn't need moisturization, or that you have to use a toner because everybody says you have to use a toner.

But seriously, everyone should wear sunscreen.

First dates are the worst, they're just a series of question after question until you can find some common ground. It's an interrogation over cocktails. Fortunately, the lunatics over at Reddit have shared 10 of their best first-date questions to make sure your date isn't any crazier than you. Ready? Go!


1. ​clipsparapapel17 thinks you should get batsh*t right off the bat.

See that girl over there? Is she hotter than me? And if yes, would you kill her for me?

2. ToFat2Run demands their date become an impromptu novelist.

"If you were to write a book, what would it be about?"

I find this tells me lots about a person.

3. SplendaTheyreCominUp thinks you should play truther dare.

"In your personal estimation, what would you say is the temperature steel beams melt at?"

4. petsymmetry knows that you can treat for the soprano sax, but it will never really go away.

Do you have STDs or are you a Kenny G fan? Both are gamestoppers so be honest.

5. dazed-and-amused wants to kill the mood forever.

Would you rather watch your parents fuck for a year or fuck them both for 10 minutes?

6. Fyrefawx wants to make sure all nerd requirements are met.

Have you seen Star Wars?

7. Hopefully, 99mg only asks this on a date with a professional therapist.

Are you going to wait 3 years, for me to absolutely fall for you in every way possible, then wake up one day and never want to talk to me again?

8. styenwatson11 just wants to know the basics.

What's your policy regarding leaving people suddenly and without warning? I'm not saying right away, but eventually down the line, how open would you be to introducing a third party to our sex life? Do you floss? Are you obnoxiously dependent, or are we still going to be able to have our own lives? Are you going to make me wait 6 dates before sleeping with me? Is it okay if we wait like, 6 dates before sleeping together? Do you actually watch Rachel Maddow/Read the NY Times/love this band/go to MoMA in your spare time, or are you just saying that? What were your SAT scores? If we were to date, how often would you expect oral sex? Like, is this a regular thing, or a once in a while treat? How much money do you actually make? If we go home together tonight, I'm not really going to want to cuddle. That cool with you? Are you seeing other people? HOW many other people? You talk to your ex how often? What's your number? (Not your phone number. The other one.) Just give me a ballpark range. Will you be willing to take a backseat to my career? Will you want me to take a backseat to yours? Will you be just as apt to keep the bathroom door closed six months, six years into the relationship, as you are right now? Do you have any plans to gain a ton of weight/lose a ton of weight/take up drugs/change your career/change your religion/change your country of residence, or in any other way drastically alter your life in the next two years? Will you always expect me to pay? (Will you always pay?) Does any part of you right now think that I'm not someone you could be serious about? How attracted/interested in me are you really? Wait, is this a date?

9. Senor_Pepe_Frog just wants to make sure his date is legally allowed to consent.

Do you know what a potato is?

10. And finally, RealGBK has one question that has no bearing on how a relationship would go.

Do you want kids?

If you always wanted to ask J. Lo on a date and the one thing holding you back was her ripped dancer boyfriend Casper Smart, now's your chance! According to TMZ, Lopez, 47, broke up with Smart, 29, after he chose going to a UFC fight over accompanying her to a benefit in the Hamptons this past weekend.

Sources close to the former couple told TMZ that J. Lo wanted Casper to be her date to business tycoon Ron Perelman's fundraiser benefiting the Apollo Theater on Saturday night. But Casper opted instead to watch the Conor McGregor/Nate Diaz fight with his friends in Vegas.

Here's a vid J-Lo posted of her swinging solo at the benefit. Her caption says "fun last night" but her eyes say "F*ck you, Casper!!!! Look what you're missing!!!"

Casper also Instagrammed this selfie from the fight. Maybe I'm overanalyzing, but those eyes look like they hold a well of sadness and regret.

He was apparently planning to meet J.Lo in NYC on Sunday and had no idea she would pull the plug on the relationship. However, the couple has a history of breaking up and getting back together. So if you were planning to ask J.Lo to come over for a little Netflix and chill, you better act fast. (Hint: She probably doesn't want to watch Gigli.)

Passengers live-tweet their flight delay after crew members have a fight onboard.

British retired tennis player and current TV presenter Dan Lobb was on the tarmac waiting for easyJet flight EZY835 to fly from London to Belfast on Wednesday. But then a workplace spat started among the crew, which kept the flight from taking off. Sometimes it's fight not flight.

Lobb kept himself occupied by live-tweeting the journey before the journey.

The pilot asked people to be patient.

"Think of the children! The children!" he reminds us.

Sh*t got real when two crew members were kicked off the plane.

Lobb tried to provide some details to the curious public, and it turns out the "tiff" was about nothing at all.

The plane ultimately made it up into the air and to Belfast.

There were other tweeters on the flight, including the electronic music group Disclosure, who tweeted directly to easyJet and got sassy.

Mashablereached out to easyJet, who sent back the statement:

easyJet can confirm that flight EZY835 from London Gatwick to Belfast returned to stand to replace two crew members following a verbal disagreement between them.

The safety and welfare of our passengers and crew is easyJet’s highest priority and in order to deliver this easyJet’s cabin crew need to be able to work as a team.

We would like to apologise for any inconvenience caused by the resulting delay. The flight has now continued to Belfast

Here's hoping your inevitable workplace spats don't inconvenience this many tweeters.

Girl reaches into belly button and pulls out a giant blackhead she never knew was there.

Jamie Davis, a Dr. Pimple Popper-peeping popaholic, got to live out every unlicensed dermatologists' dream when she found a treasure trove of gunk in her sister's belly button. Then of course she uploaded the video to YouTube.

"9 months ago my sister noticed something in her belly button, but thought nothing of it. Saturday I noticed something that looked like hair hanging out of her belly button," Davis writes in the video's description, "She resisted, but I got in there realizing that it was much more than hair."

The video—made awesome with its accented commentary—uncovered what is called an umbolith, which is a big black zit that grows in the bellybutton, the ultimate throwback to the umbilical cord days.

Dermatologists refer to it as a "black stone," and everyone else refers to it as a "scary, hairy ball of gunk."

She also got the ball rolling with the reaction videos, showing the video to her sister's proud husband. True love knows no bounds, or umboliths quite like this one.

5 shows you should binge-watch if you're obsessed with 'The Night Of.'

Now that everyone has finished watching Stranger Things (and if you haven't, get on it ASAP), we can all focus on The Night Of, the HBO crime drama starring Riz Ahmed and John Turturro. The finale will air on August 28, and there's still so much to tie up before it ends—will Naz get out of jail? Will we learn who really killed Andrea Cornish? Will John Stone keep the cat? But once it's over, it's over, and there's no word yet on whether or not there will be a second season. So to fill the gaping void left in your life by the end of The Night Of, here are a few other shows you can binge-watch.

1. Criminal Justice

The Night Of is actually based on a English show (of course it is) from 2008 starring Ben Whishaw (probably known best in America as Q from the new Bond films) as a young man charged with murder after finding a woman he'd just met dead in her apartment and fleeing the scene, taking some especially incriminating evidence with him. You can catch it on Hulu.

2. Broadchurch

Absolutely one of the best crime dramas ever to air on television, Broadchurch stars David Tenant and Olivia Colman as detectives trying to solve the mystery of the death of an 11-year-old boy. The small Dorset town in which it's set turns out to be a lot less peaceful than it seems (of course) when basically half the population become suspects in the case. Both seasons can be seen on Netflix.

3. Happy Valley

Happy Valley is the story of Catherine Cawood (portrayed by Sarah Lancashire), a sergeant living in West Yorkshire with her sister (a recovering heroin addict played by Siobhan Finneran) and her grandson (the product of a rape that led her daughter to kill herself). The show follows Cawood as she investigates a kidnapping case that, as fate (and the show's writer Sally Wainwright) would have it, involves the recently-released-from-prison father of said grandson. Both seasons are available on Netflix.

[Quick aside: How interesting to see a show starring two women over the age of 50 (Lancashire is 51 and Finneran is 50), since in America women over 50 are not permitted to be on television (with the exception of maybe Oprah Winfrey and Ellen DeGeneres, who are immortal and ageless) and are actually discouraged from existing at all.]

4. The Fall

Yet another British show, The Fall stars Agent Dana Scully Gillian Anderson (with an English accent) as DSI Stella Gibson, hot (so hot) on the trail of a serial killer played by Jamie Dornan (50 Shades of Grey). Both seasons are currently streaming on Netflix.

5. Witnesses (Les Temoins)

This French TV show follows two detectives as they try to solve a gruesome case involving bodies dug up from graves and placed on display that may or may not involve the former chief of police. Available on Netflix.

And just in case the thing you'll miss most about The Night Of is its star, 33-year-old English actor/rapper Riz Ahmed (a.k.a. Riz MC), take heart in the fact that you can still watch him in movies like the excellent black comedy Four Lions, ​as well as Trishna and Nightcrawler. Oh, and there are also videos for his solo music project and him band Swetshop Boys, featuring Himanshu Suri (a.k.a. Heems), from Das Racist. So much Riz Ahmed goodness. Enjoy, friends.

Making yourself a lunch to bring to work has many benefits. It's cheaper than buying an overpriced chopped salad, and often the food you make yourself is much healthier than what you'll get in cafes or fast food chains. Plus, it's a great way to subtly one-up your coworkers.

1. Buddha bowl.

This Buddha bowl is packed with grains, veggies, and proteins to help you refuel and stay energized for the afternoon. Eat it while bragging to Janet about the invigorating yoga class you took early this morning while she was struggling to get her four kids ready for school. Want even more to brag about? Why not make a vegan version, like this one?

2. Deconstructed salad.

This deconstructed salad is a great way to get all your veggies in. Plus, it looks beautiful. Linda from accounting tosses all of her salad ingredients all willy-nilly into a tupperware like an uncivilized troll. Your impeccable salad presentation will intimidate her. Not sure where to start? Try this recipe for a deconstructed Cobb salad.

3. Grains and black beans topped with an egg and avocado.

Leftovers are always better when you #putaneggonit and top with #avocado!!! 🍴

The beans and poached egg in this dish provide lots of protein, while the avocado brings in healthy fats. It'll keep you full for the rest of the day, and help you quietly establish dominance over your cubicle-mate, Dale. This meal says, "That's right, Dale. I know how to poach an egg. I'm more evolved than you. I'm the alpha." Don't know how to poach an egg yet? Learn here.

4. Spaghetti with pork and pancetta goulash.

Sometimes you just need some good, old-fashioned comfort food. And what's more comforting than pasta? Oh, that's right, pasta that makes you look like an extraordinarily gifted gourmet chef. Don't forget to tell everyone in your lunch meeting how simple it was to make. Find a similar pork goulash recipe here.

5. Seared tuna, salmon sashimi, seaweed salad.

Enjoy your protein-packed salmon sashimi and yummy seaweed salad while loudly reminiscing about the year you spent living abroad in Japan. Ask Kevin if he's ever lived abroad, and give him a condescending pity smile when he says he hasn't. Learn how to make sashimi here.

6. Turkey burger.

Your homemade turkey burger is not only a great source of lean protein, but it'll also make Bill feel like a disgusting slob for settling on a Big Mac with fries. Find a great turkey burger recipe here.

7. Roast lamb, broccoli, and marble potatoes.

Prepping all your meals on Sundays will help you stay on track when you're busy and don't have time to cook during the week. Make sure to talk loudly about your active social life and extensive workout regime, all while pulling your home cooked meal out of the fridge so your co-workers understand—you're a perfect superhuman who really can do it all.

Students are carrying around giant dildos to protest an even more ridiculous gun law.

$

Imagine a world where you can legally carry a gun around a college campus but you can't carry a dildo. Hilarious! Anyway, that world exists. It's called Texas. And students are fighting back, with dildos.

#COCKSNOTGLOCKS 🍆🍆🍆

A photo posted by 🌷 SAILOR POON 🌷 (@sailorpoonband) on

The state passed a new law, which went into effect on August 1, allowing concealed guns in classrooms and on college campuses. But state-wide "obscenity" rules still prohibit people from carrying sex toys on college campuses.

To protest these "absurdities," students showed up to the University of Texas Austin on their first day of classes yesterday carrying giant dildos. "Texas has decided it is not all obnoxious or illegal to allow deadly concealed weapons on campus," said Jessica Jin, who spearheaded (lol) the “Cocks Not Glocks” protest. "But walking around with a dildo could land you in trouble."

The protest has been in the works since October of last year, when the Facebook event for Cocks Not Glocks went viral. "ANYBODY can participate in solidarity: alum, non-UT students, people outside of Texas," it read. "Come one dildo, come all dildos."

And yesterday, they came. Hundreds of free sex toys were handed out on campus thanks to donations from Hustler, a few porno companies, and the Austin sex shop Dreamers. And protesters were chanting slogans like “if you are packing heat, we are packing meat." Others got extra creative:

This protest seems like fun. But protesters were serious about their mission to repeal the new campus carry law. “It’s scary to think that at any moment you could be next to a person carrying a gun," said UT sophomore Bianca Montgomery. "And if they go off their rocker, like a lot of people do in college, it is game over for anyone nearby."

Handing out dildos is a breach of the school’s obscenity rules, but the university gave protesters a pass, because of free speech. Viva la resistance!

How to respond to body-shaming like a real fitness guru.

$

If there's one eternal truth of the internet, it's that people will try to shame your body. Whether you're posting bikini pictures, posting fully-clothed pictures, or not posting pictures at all, some gutless loser will try to make you feel bad about your god-given corpus. That's when you have to turn to the experts: social media fitness gurus. They get hate from hundreds of anonymous body-shamers every day, and they're as skilled at clapping back as they are at squats. Here are some of their best tips on how to handle the haters:

1. Ignore them.

Dana Falsetti overcame a binge-eating disorder, lost more than 100 pounds, and became a yoga instructor who can pull off a mean crow pose. She maintains an Instagram page where she posts photos of her wicked moves, never even deigning to acknowledge the disgusting trolls who constantly mock her for having a little excess skin, and not trying to hide it.


2. Get ahead of them.

Fitness guru Anna Victoria posts plenty of Instagram pics where her stomach looks perfectly flat. But she knows as well as anyone that the key to a flat tummy isn't working out—it's the camera angle. So to preemptively shut down any judgmental losers, she proudly posted this photo of her stomach rolls.

There are two reasons I want to share this with you ladies: one reason is because I want you to know having skin fold over on your stomach when you sit or to have "rolls" is not anything to hate or be ashamed of. The other reason is because while I say this, there have been times where if I ever found myself in front of a mirror where I am sitting and I see my stomach, I automatically think "ew!" because this is what society has conditioned me to think. Your stomach does not have to be perfectly flat to be healthy, your stomach does not have to be perfectly flat for you to love yourself, and your stomach does not have to be perfectly flat to be confident and beautiful and an all around amazing person. As a society, we shouldn't let physical characteristics set the standard for whether we deserve to love ourselves or not. Everyone deserves to love themselves, however I know that's easier said than done. What's amazing to me and what I have witnessed with the fbg girls is most of the time they start learning to love themselves more on their journey not because of the physical changes, but because of the mental and emotional changes that come from dedicating yourself, pushing yourself, and seeing just how strong you really are. (what we call "non-physical progress" and is just as, if not more important than physical progress). That type of strength and beauty can only be seen and felt from within. 💪💗 #fbggirls www.annavictoria.com/guides

3. Make a video of your butt.

When Liza Parker proudly shared the "booty gains" she'd acquired after a year of working out, randos came out of the woodwork to say she was faking. They accused her of "manipulating her pose" (on Instagram? say it isn't so!) and even using Photoshop to make her booty look more bangin' than it was. So to shut them all up forever, she posted this unambiguous video of just how real her rear end really was.

So here's me making a fool of myself in my kitchen! 😂 But I wanted to have some real talk with all of you and thought it would lighten the mood ✌ I woke up yesterday to @kayla_itsines featuring my BBG progress pic. I couldn't believe it! I was pretty jacked! Then the Internet trolling started🔸 It shouldn't have bothered me, but it did. I was accused of "getting surgery" to achieve my figure and that I had "photo shopped" my picture. Both completely FALSE. There was a lot more said. Some of which were absolutely hurtful & terrible🔸 I have seen these comments on other progress pictures Kayla has shared and I just don't understand it. As someone who is very open on social media I understand that everyone is entitled to their opinion and I've dealt with negative comments in the past. However I'm never okay with body shaming or trying to discredit the hard work someone has put in🔸On social media we usually share the best of the best. We find the best light, the best angle, and quite often the best filter and it may not accurately portray what that person looks like every day. I was feeling pretty good the day I took my booty progress pic 🍑 I put on my fav shorts, found some good light and posed in a way that I felt accentuated the gains I had made. I didn't think I would ever be attacked for it 🔸For me it has always been about the strength and confidence I have built in addition to the physical gains. I know I shouldn't let comments from people who don't know me get to me but I felt I needed to stand up for myself. This is ALL me. And I love this program. And it works! I love all of you for being so supportive always ❤ Stay classy fit fam! 😉

4. Show off your baby belly.

People are going to hate your body no matter what you do, so why not go all-out and dazzle them with your ability to keep a baby in there? That's what Australian fitness guru and mother of four Sophie Guidolin did. She posted side-by-side pics of her bumps from when she was pregnant in 2008, before she got into fitness, and in 2015, when she had become an Instagram ab sensation. The most amazing part: in 2015, she was carrying twins. That's some black magic right there.


5. Say "F**k You."

This one is a stretch, because Charli Howard isn't a fitness guru. But she is a model, and like most models, is very skinny. Just not skinny enough for her agency, which dropped her because she was "too big" for the fashion industry. For reference, here's Howard:

What the hell?

Some people don't get mad—they get even. But Howard did both. In a viral Facebook post, she ripped into her agency, and the whole industry, in a deeply satisfying profanity-laden rant.

Here's a big FUCK YOU to my (now ex) model agency, for saying that at 5"8 tall and a UK size 6-8 (naturally), I'm "too...

She then started the #MoreThanANumber campaign to motivate other women and girls to think of themselves as more than just their size.

The internet in the 2010s can feel like one endless, hellish episode of I Love The '90s, but the decade wasn't only about (then-nostalgic) tie-dye and (then futuristic) Tamagotchis and tie-dyeing your Tamagotchis. A recent Reddit thread had people sharing all the things from the 90s they didn't miss, and that's not even including all the tragedies and disease. Here is the other side of whimsical 90s nostalgia (but it's still pretty whimsical).

1. Remember how crime never slept? Ksuwildkat does.

Car stereo theft. People don't even think about it now but back then you had to take a ton of precautions to not have your car stereo stolen.

2. ​Bhikkux has another musical complaint.

portable cd players that were too wide to fit in your jean pockets

3.​Iwkyawy just respects portability in general.

Heavy TVs. I like being able to carry my TV up and down stairs by myself.

4. Impressive onomatopoeia from demonedge.

DGAA DUNN DNNNNDD Pshhhkkkkkkrrrr​kakingkakingkakingtsh​chchchchchchchcch​dingdingding

Edit: "Welcome to AoL"

5. Might have to Google what Milain is talking about here.

Limited access to knowledge. I remember how much work it was to put together a presentation on a topic. Spend hours getting all the valuable information out of books

6. Ford_Perfect_lx didn't bother chatting.

Trying to think of cool things to post as my away status on AOL instant messenger

7. Nithe1975 did the good work that prevented the apocalypse.

People freaking the fuck out over Y2K. I worked in for one of the biggest names in the brokerage industry in the early 1990's and we already had our shit tested and locked down by 1994 or so. New changes to that code base had to be tested against Y2K policies before going into production.

8. Bernath didn't love walkie-talkie phones?

Being at a restaurant and listening to the person at the next table over conduct an entire conversation using their Nextel push-to-talk.

9. Aw man, Beer_lady made it real.

That sinking realization that my dad forgot to pick me up from school again.

Classic beer lady.
