Some lucky 'Gilmore Girls' fans got their Luke's coffee from Luke himself.

On October 5, Gilmore Girlsfans gathered (read: stood in line) at Luke's Diner pop-ups around the country to get a taste of Stars Hollow and pretend they were getting coffee from the grumpy but lovable Luke Danes. While most people had to settle for enjoying their cup of joe next to a cardboard cutout of Luke, lucky fans at one location in Beverly Hills, CA were surprised when the curmudgeonly diner owner himself showed up.

Actor Scott Patterson, who plays Luke in both the original series and its upcoming revival, was on hand at the honorary Luke's Diner (known as Comoncy Cafe on a normal day) to meet fans, pose for pictures, and, of course, hand out some coffee.

Needless to say, people were pretty pumped to see him.

Excitement for the Gilmore Girls revival was amplified even more this week when Netflix released a new two-and-a-half-minute-long video featuring the cast entitled "We're Back."

Is it November 25 yet?


Restaurant discovers the best way to make food 'like grandma used to make it.'

Enoteca Maria, a restaurant on Staten Island, knows that nothing is better than the food grandma makes, so instead of hiring chefs to prepare your meal, they hired grandmas from all over the globe to cook for you. Why has no one thought of this before?

Enoteca Maria is owned by Jody Scaravella, who assembled a pretty awesome team of grandmothers from around the world including ones from Italy, Algeria, Syria, Jerusalem, Nigeria and Poland, to name a few.

Every dinner service features food from two grandmothers—one Italian granny and one from a different part of the world. They whip up signature dishes that highlight the unique cuisine from their culture.

Do they try to guilt you into eating after you're full, too?

Even though the big draw of the restaurant is it's nonnas, there is always one nonno in the kitchen with them. Giuseppe Freya is from Calabria, and he hand makes all of the pasta for Enoteca Maria.

The only thing missing is a grandma leaving a giant lipstick stain on your cheek and telling you that "you look too skinny!" At least you won't look too skinny by the time you leave.

Beautiful dentist becomes Instagram sensation because no one can believe she's 48.

South Korean dentist Lee Su-Jin has become an Instagram sensation recently because of her eerily ageless appearance. At 48, she looks like she could be a 20-something fresh out of dental school.

Lee first appeared in the public eye when she appeared on the TV showSame Bed, Different Dreams—a kind of South Korean Maury where parents and children try to hash out their differences. Her daughter brought her on the show because she claimed Dr. Lee was addicted to Instagramming her selfies. But once the segment aired, the Korean people immediately became even more addicted to her selfies than she is. Now she has more than 89,000 followers, and she's gaining more all the time, from all over the world.

Her Instagram contains everything from glamor shots…

…to clips of her at work…

…to her having fun at home.

So what does Dr. Lee think of her newfound fame?

A healthy fast food chain is coming so there goes your excuse for not eating salad.

Fast food is super cheap and super convenient, but, sadly, nobody can stay healthy on a diet that consists solely of Egg McMuffins (though wouldn't it be great if we could?). A new drive-through chain in Arizona called Salad and Go is looking to put a healthy spin on the way we do fast food.

Salad and Go's menu includes a variety of customizable 48-ounce salads, as well as soups, smoothies, and wraps, and even all-day breakfast. The prices are relatively affordable as well, with salads starting at around $5.47.

The chain's cofounder Roushan Christofellis told Business Insider that their goal was to provide an alternative to all the unhealthy fast food options out there. "We know that so many of those people eating from traditional drive-thru fast food are forced to go there because they, just like me, needed something convenient and affordable, and that was their only option," she said.

Salad and Go only has six locations at the moment (all of which are in Arizona), but Business Insider reports that the chain has plans to expand to other states over the next two years or so.

There goes your excuse for not eating your vegetables.

5 wholesome activities today's teens are missing out on because they're always looking at their phones.

$

0

Today's teens, like the rest of us, are alwayson their phones. Everywhere they go, teenagers are Snapchatting, Facebooking, Facetiming, taking selfies and posting pics of their latte foam art to Instagram. It's a complete and total nightmare!

Look at how technology is destroying these teens' lives.

This is nothing like when I was a teenager in the late '90s and early 00's. Back then, a cell phone was a cumbersome, useless device that your parents kept in their car for "emergencies." So us '90s teens were forced to go out into the world and actually ~*live life*~. Here are some of the fun and wholesome activities that we enjoyed that today's teens are missing out on because they can't tear their faces away from their devices:

1) Smoking pot out of an apple.

Today's teens can literally get high at the click of a button thanks to newfangled "vape" devices. Or they can buy marijuana at a store or even order it online because in some states it's not even illegal, which takes all the fun out of it you ask me. In my day, we had to carve a hole in household fruit and then stuff weed in there and try to get high that way and occasionally it worked. We also had to get our definitely very illegal pot from this sketchy guy we called "Weed Willy" who claimed to be a student at my high school even though he looked like he was over 30 and was never seen in class. Is there an app for that, teens? I bet not.

2) TPing public property.

Teens today take for granted how easy it is to torment friends and strangers simply by following and then unfollowing them on Instagram. Back in my day, ruining someone else's day just for kicks was called "pranking" and it often involved wet toilet paper and public property, for some reason—like a mailbox, or a neighbor's front yard. Today's teens are so busy Snapchatting they probably don't even know the joy of ruining someone's property for no reason except to feel alive.

3) Smoking cigarettes at gas stations.

I grew up in the era when smoking was no longer socially acceptable and teens had to sneak around and smoke in secret (while many of our parents did the same thing). One of the best places to smoke was a gas station, mostly because you could also get snacks there! Smoking in the presence of gasoline, I would later learn, is extremely dangerous and a bad idea. But what did I know? I was a teen! Today's teens have access to Google and they probably know better than to smoke at a gas station. Many teens don't even smoke at all. They're missing out on so much, like lung cancer and other diseases, and fun!

4) Sneaking into the "sex ed" section at the public library.

In the '90s, if you wanted to learn about sex, you had to really put in the WORK. The internet was just as untrustworthy as it is today, but with much less information. Plus, in the 20 minutes it took for a pornographic page to download, your dad could walk in and you'd have to quickly click out and then start all over again. In the '90s you had to learn about sex by sneaking into the "off-limits section" at the library (librarians know what you're doing, btw). And even then, your education was limited to pencil drawings and goofy cartoon pictures of the reproductive system. I didn't fully learn how sex works until college and even now I'm not totally sure. Which is how it should be! Today's teens know too much about sex. Where's the fun in that???

5) Shoplifting from Claire's.

I don't condone shoplifting. It's wrong, and the stakes are pretty high if you get caught. But how can you call yourself a teen if you don't know the adrenaline rush of stealing a $5 necklace from Claire's Accessories at the mall? How can you fully reach adulthood if you've never once laid awake at night, tortured with the guilt of having taken something that you ended up having to throw away anyway because it turned your neck green? Today's teens are so busy chasing Pokemon around or tweeting and other legal activities, they probably don't even commit petty crimes anymore.

Look, teens, I know it's hard. But don't forget to look up from your devices every once and a while. Look around you. There's a whole world out there to destroy.

Mom arrested for making her baby be an 'extreme vegan.'

A mom in Pennsylvania has been charged with endangering the welfare of a child after allegedly insisting her 11-month-old son adhere to strict veganism, feeding him a diet of only nuts and berries.

Everyone knows that vegans are often annoying, but recent stories have shown that when imposing their lifestyle on a child, vegans can be dangerous.

Jerry Hawk brought his son to Children and Youth Services when he saw the boy had a severe head-to-toe rash, and CYS rushed him to the hospital.

The doctor on call told CBS Pittsburgh that the baby has suffered greatly as a result of the nuts and berries diet.

Brandy Hawk, Jerry's sister, told CBS Pittsburgh that the boy is doing much, much better now that he's getting nutrients in his father's care.

She also explained that the mother, Elizabeth Hawk, considered herself "an extreme vegan" and “was going to live on water and sunlight.”

While veganism is noble, it's better that babies get the milk they need so they could grow up to brag about it on Instagram.

Kanye's original 'Famous' lyrics were even more controversial.

In Kanye West's song "Famous," he took a dig at Taylor Swift, rapping "I feel like me and Taylor might still have sex/Why? I made that bitch famous." But the lyrics to a leaked demo version of the song actually have Swift owing West sex, and not just Swift, but his ex Amber Rose, too.

According to Complex, the original track, which has since been pulled from Soundcloud, featured the lyrics: "For all my Chi-town ni**as that know me best/I feel like Taylor Swift still owe me sex/Why? I made that bitch famous."

The original lyrics were already controversial, because Swift claimed she didn't know West was going to call her out in the song. A video later released by West's wife (Kim Kardashian West) of a phone conversation West had with Swift shows that's not entirely true—she did seem to know about the "might still have sex" part. However, at no point did he tell her he also called her a "bitch" in the song.

Another verse had West claiming Rose still owes him sex: "For all my Chi-town ni**as that know me best/I feel like Amber Rose still owe me sex/Why? I made that bitch famous/Not really, but somewhat famous."

The demo version also had a slower tempo, featured a Young Thug verse, and was missing the Rihanna hook that ended up on The Life of Pablo album version.

Here's the video for the version that was released, on the off chance that you've never heard it (and in that case, where have you been?).

People are mad at this ad that’s literally just a giant butt.

While many people like big butts and they cannot lie, it's uncomfortable to have to encounter a huge thong in the parking lot.

UFit, a gym in the UK, paved the roads with an ad of a shiny, aggressively sexualized women's bottom with the words "there's better things to be stuck behind than the car in front."

The ad was featured on the route of the Cardiff Half Marathon in Wales, which the marathon has denounced.

Cardiff residents (and even Members of Parliament!) are tweeting at Ufit Fitness about how straight-up objectification is not a good look.

Gyms are ostensibly in the business of making people healthier and hotter, and many have ridiculously strange and sexual ads that are more about hotness than health.

Here's your hourly reminder that women are more than just butts.

Bully at Wendy's called a teenage boy 'Lil Ugly Dude' on his receipt.

Meet 15-year-old Quenterus Brown from Mobile, AL.

You wouldn't expect anyone could call him ugly, and yet...

He said he couldn’t figure out why people behind the counter at Wendy's were laughing before he got his order. Then he saw the words “lil ugly dude” printed at the bottom of his receipt.

Dead wrong.

After he left crying because he's a teenager and that is just straight mean, protective mom Teeneshia Bush wanted to give in to her "ghetto side," but took her complaints to Facebook instead.

Good Morning FBF this been bothering me all night. I took my son to Wendy's to get something to eat last night. He went inside to place his order, instead of the cashier being courtesy and ask my son what's his name to put on his ticket she took it upon herself to put on the bottom of his receipt Lil Ugly Dude. This is unacceptable and unprofessional. My child was so embarrassed and upset he said the whole store was laughing at him including the manager. I play about alot of things but my kids isn't one. My ghetto side was telling me to go back up there and let them have it. But I rather do it the right way.

And before you go thinking it was a low-rung, disgruntled cashier who wrote that, Bush claims in the comments that "the cashier didn't put that on his receipt it was the manager."

The freaking manager.

“It hurt my feelings, it made me cry I was embarrassed and I felt bad,” Brown told WKRG.

Bush's FB post went viral, getting shared almost 2,000 times, and Director of Management Services at Wendy’s, Ed Sheffield, issued this apology.

“Wendy’s has been a part of this community for many years, and we were certainly disappointed to learn that one of our employees treated a guest in such a rude manner. We take this seriously, and we no longer employ this individual. When we learned of the incident, we immediately contacted the guest. We apologized to the young man and his mother and look forward to welcoming them back to Wendy’s again.”

Looks like there's a job opening up for a managerial position, ugly-hearted people need not apply.

Drunk woman has hilarious Twitter exchange with an extremely helpful customer service rep.

British fashion blogger Lucy D'Agostino just unlocked the holy grail of drunk greatness the other night when, instead of the common mistake of messaging an ex, she drunk tweeted a customer service rep for an online clothing store.

Last night ✨

A photo posted by LUCY D'AGOSTINO (@lucydagostino_) on

"I messaged them at 2am with a question mark," D'Agostine explains on her vlog. "I was really drunk, I don't even remember doing this, to be honest.... and I woke up and was like oh my god."

What she had blacked out was a beautiful back-and-forth over Twitter between her drunken and hungry self and Abul, the rep on late night duty for Boohoo clothing.

Its a tale as old as time: drunk woman messages a stranger, stranger gives great advice on a late-night snack.

Did you guys know chips (french fries) were better drunk food than kebabs? From now on I'm going to customer service with all of my questions.

Man gives up masturbating for 2 years, gains superpowers.

A man going by the handle BroHit on Reddit challenged himself to give up masturbating for 700 days. He succeeded, and wrote about the trials and tribulations of not jerkin' it in an essay in the "NoFap" subReddit (a board dedicated to not fapping, duh).

Does that make him a hero? No. But did it give him superpowers? Also no. But did it make his other senses more heightened in certain ways? Yes, sounds like it, according to this excerpt from his essay, "Reflecting on a 700-day NoFap journey":

We are all born with an empty void inside of ourselves. All our life we try to fill this void with something or the other. It can be anything - religion, spirituality, women, academics, work, porn, tinder, sex, mobile phone, TV, movies, and so on. How we fill this void makes us who we are. But this makes me wonder how can all these man-made, artificial things compose our personalities?

Once I quit fapping, my mind did feel a lot clear and I was at peace more often. Yes I was able to feel all those things you call ‘superpowers’ too - sudden increase in confidence, laser sharp focus, more attention from women, easier to find sex, energy boosts, etc. However, I don’t like to refer to them as ‘superpowers’ - how do we know these superpowers aren’t just normal human tendencies?

Maybe the constant glorification of sex and fine-ass honeys that we are exposed to daily has fogged our general perspective - now we can only think about sex and what it would be like to sleep with women that have ‘perfect’ bodies. But once we start controlling our sex urges, our mind realizes that there’s more to life and this world than just sex and hot women. If we can learn proper self-control, we can master anything.

Okay, so BroHit doesn't like to think of them as "superpowers," but that's probably due to modesty. I think that if he tried hard enough, this person could probably do anything Superman or Spider-Man could do, and more, because hello, he went two years without masturbating.

Comedian Louie CK has spoken about mankind's struggle to avoid constant fapping, saying in a recent interview with Vulture,

Maybe store it up for a while and wait until you actually have a sexual urge. I don’t know what it’s like for women, but for a lot of guys I know—and myself—masturbation is an anxiety release. If I’m trying to get some work done and getting irritated, just go rub one out and it calms you down. It’s a shame to do that as a swap-out for real sexual connection to your virility and your sexual drive. I don’t have a perfect record, but I am trying to see if I can just let a sexual urge be.

As Kim Kardashian and her family are still reeling from her terrifying, life-threatening robbery, Pornhub would like to remind you:

A) That it exists AND

B) That Kim K has a sex tape on there.

The adult entertainment site put out a press release on October 4th announcing "it will offer a $50,000 reward in exchange for information leading to arrest and conviction of criminals who robbed Kim Kardashian earlier this week in Paris, France."

Corey Price, the Vice President of Pornhub, said:

Here at Pornhub we were deeply saddened to hear about the horrible incident involving Kim in Paris. We want to do all that we can to ensure that the perpetrators of this heinous crime are brought to justice. We are calling on all of our fans from around the world to come together and work collectively to provide any and all information relating to the crime so we can capture the criminals.

This ca$h prize would be kind of noble if the press release didn't immediately slide into promoting their exclusive rights to Kardashian's sex tape with Ray J.

"Kim Kardashian’s sex tape video with Ray J by Vivid Entertainment remains the most viewed video on Pornhub with 110,198,725 views and counting. She is the most searched for porn star by women all over the world and is widely searched for by both men and women alike everywhere from the US to the UK," writes Pornhub, before ADDING THE LINK.

"If you have any information about the robbery of Kim Kardashian, please e-mail tips@pornhub.com," Pornhub adds.

If you have information, get in touch with Pornhub and send them just the tips.
