Holy sh*t, this boyfriend asked his girlfriend to let him inspect her poop for cheating evidence.

0

Yeah, your ex-boyfriend is crazy, but is he demands-to-inspect-your-poop crazy?

Jealousy, misogyny and stupidity reach new heights in this story shared to Reddit's Relationship forum, which has gone viral for being so utterly batsh*t—emphasis on the sh*t.

The post is titled, "My boyfriend [28-year-old-male] wants me [27-year-old female] to take a dump in front of him to prove that I'm not cheating," and this guy is full of crap:

I've been with my boyfriend for just over a year now. I live alone, and he frequently spends the night at my apartment. We have a healthy, trusting relationship, however I'm aware that his previous girlfriend cheated on him. Prior to this week, he never expressed any lack of trust in me.

My apartment is fairly old, so it takes a while for the water to heat up. Sometimes, while I'm waiting for the shower to get warm, I take a dump. I don't want to flush the toilet and screw up the water temperature, so I'll take a dump, shower, and then flush the toilet.

A few days prior to posting, our heroine took her traditional dump but forgot to flush the toilet after bathing. Her boyfriend arrived, went to the bathroom, "and then emerged with a completely dead look on his face. He asked whose sh*t was in the toilet."

Here's where things went from weird to worse. The boyfriend was "completely bewildered" and did not buy that his girlfriend could produce such excrement.

"He replied that I was a liar, and that 'no girl could take a dump that big,'" she wrote. "He was completely serious."

How do you respond to such a thing like that? She didn't:

I couldn't believe I was in this conversation. I couldn't even get upset or angry. I just said, like an idiot, "But... it's my sh*t?"

My boyfriend walked out without another word and ignored my calls for the rest of the night. The next day, he agreed to meet for lunch. He apologized for leaving in such a rush, but said he still couldn't believe me when I said it was my own sh*t. He said he'd be willing to give me a "second chance" if I could prove it. I didn't really understand what he was getting at, so he elaborated that he wanted to see me take a dump in front of him, to prove that my sh*t actually looked like that.

The woman has yet to respond to the paranoid poop fiend, and turned to Reddit for advice.

"I seriously love this man, but I'm honestly at a complete loss. He's made it clear that this is a dealbreaker for him," she explained.

The internet's opinion is that she should dump this paranoid creep. Not only are women the sh*t, we also take sh*ts, and any man worth being with understands how human excrement knows no gender! Our butts may be sexualized, but trust us, they also get stuff done.

If the story is fake, it's the most exhilarating fiction I've read in years.

Chris Kattan claims SNL boss Lorne Michaels pressured him to sleep with 'Clueless' director — and he lost Will Ferrell's friendship because of it

0
0

"Saturday Night Live" alum Chris Kattan has revealed that during production of "A Night at the Roxbury," he felt pressured to sleep with a director in order to appease his boss.

Nineties and 2000s kids know Kattan as Mango, Mr. Peepers, and most iconically, as one of the "A Night at the Roxbury" dudes. He recently released a memoir detailing some horror stories from his most famous era, called "Baby Don't Hurt Me: Stories and Scars from Saturday Night Live."

In the book, Kattan alleges that Lorne Michaels — SNL's founder and probably the most powerful person in American TV comedy — implied he should have sex with Amy Heckerling, the director of "Clueless," in order to sweeten a business deal.

Heckerling, 43 at the time, was deciding whether she'd like to direct "A Night at the Roxbury," according to Page Six. When Michaels, who was producing the film, found out Kattan, who was 27, had rejected Heckerling sexually, he was "furious."

From Decider:

Kattan goes on to say that the next day, he got a call from Michaels, who had signed on to produce A Night at the Roxbury. He explains that Michaels told him “Paramount would only do the movie if Amy signed on as a director, not as producer,” and if he “wanted to make sure the movie happened, then [he] had to keep Amy happy.” According to Kattan, Michaels continued, “Chris, I’m not saying you have to fuck her, but it wouldn’t hurt.”

Kattan found Michaels' statement "insane," according to Decider. He thought about talking to Will Ferrell about it, as Ferrell was his friend and co-star in the project. But Michaels allegedly told him not to tell anyone about the exchange. In the end, Kattan claims he slept with Heckerling a few weeks later. A few of the unsavory details, according to Decider:

“She thought it would be fun to have sex on Lorne’s desk,” he recalls. “I said a polite ‘Fuck, no!’ to that, so we ended up going to her office and having sex on… yep, you guessed it, the ‘casting couch.'” Heckerling ultimately ended up taking on a producer role, and John Fortenberry stepped in as director. But despite the behind-the-camera switch, Kattan was still unnerved by the entire situation. “I was attracted to Amy,” he writes. “But at the same time very afraid of the power she and Lorne wielded over my career.”

“I was too scared,” he writes. “The last thing I wanted was to have someone hear Lorne say ‘career ender’ about me. To this day, whenever I think about that conversation with Lorne, I still feel repellingly pathetic.”

Of course, we have no idea whether this is true — and even if it is, we don't know if Heckerling and Michaels were in cahoots. It could be that she had no idea Michaels had pressured Kattan to respond to her advances. And a spokesperson for SNL has flatly denied the claims, telling Page Six, "This did not happen."

But one unfortunate alleged casualty of the whole thing was Kattan and Ferrell's friendship. Kattan says he and Heckerling developed a sexual relationship throughout the course of the filming — and that Ferrell didn't approve.

“I had tried to hide my relationship with Amy, not realizing how obvious it had been to everyone else, including Will (not to mention that Lorne told him about it in the first place),” Kattan writes, according to Page Six.

Kattan alleges that Ferrell cut him off after they finished shooting "A Night at the Roxbury," and never spoke to him again until an SNL reunion. At the reunion, Ferrell allegedly told Kattan he'd ignored his calls and messages because he "didn't want to talk to" him," according to Page Six.

“I don’t want to be your friend anymore," he allegedly told Kattan, according to Page Six. "I’m going to be professional and still work with you on the show, but that’s it.”

It's worth noting that this is all being told from Kattan's point of view, and even Kattan admits Ferrell never gave a reason for ghosting him. But he assumed it was because of his relationship with Heckerling.

"I didn’t know or hadn’t let myself see until that moment that although the situation with Amy hadn’t directly involved Will, my actions and dishonesty had made him feel deceived and betrayed,” Kattan writes. "And now everything Will and I had done and shared — everything that had made us feel like a team, that incredible amount of trust that been built up — was broken."

Ferrell's rep hasn't responded to Page Six's request for comment.

Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez perfectly shut down a right wing commentator who called her 'cliche.'

0
0

At this point, every time Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez breathes in a public a gaggle of naysayers find the nearest keyboard to express their discontent with her breathing style. All politicians deal with constant critique, regardless of gender and political alignment, but Ocasio-Cortez receives an extra heaping dose of trolls as a young, Latinx woman in Congress with strong convictions.

Luckily, she is not one to sit silently while people speak ill of her, and Ocasio-Cortez has been shutting down trolls with utter ease since the first negative meme made its internet rounds. As many women in the public eye know all too well, Ocasio-Cortez is well aware that there's no way to "win" approval when it comes to misogynists (and racists), so the best thing you can do is stick to your guns.

In keeping with this M.O., Ocasio-Cortez quickly shut it down when a Conservative talking head came for a completely harmless inspiration meme she posted.

It all started with this simple reminder that we need to "be the change" or in this case, the hope, we want to see in the world.

The Conservative Town Hall columnist Kurt Schlichter was quick to make fun of the tweet, calling it cliche.

Ocasio-Cortez fully didn't have time for the endless snark today, so she responded by pointing out how nothing she does will change misogynist perceptions of her intelligence.

People on the thread were quick to point out how the constant misogynistic responses to Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez only prove how much people fear what she stands up for.

Wherever there is a woman staying loud about what she wants to see in the world, there will inevitably be a hoard of sexists ready to shout her down. Unfortunately for Ocasio-Cortez, this means a constant stream of BS.

Trump tweeted, deleted, and tweeted again that Russia helped get him elected. Помогите.

0
0

Breaking news: President Trump finally tweeted something true. And then he deleted it, and then he tweeted it again, because he's more embarrassed by typos than by Russia helping him get elected.

Not only did Trump tweet something factually correct for the first time, it's something that anyone who cares about American democracy would be absolutely humiliated by.

Trump finally accepted the intelligence community's (and Mueller Report's) conclusion that Russia did, in fact, help get him elected, but y'all need to get over it, libtards!

While Trump finally accepted Mueller's conclusion that Russia interference get him elected, he's in denial about Volume II of the report, which examined Trump's interference with the investigation.

What law books call "obstruction of justice," Trump calls "presidential harassment."

President Grab Them By The P*ssy's claims of "presidential harassment" are nothing we haven't seen before, but this part is new:

After years of insisting that Russian interference as described by the FBI and the CIA was a "deep state" conspiracy, Trump blew up that Fox News plotline with his tiny Twitter fingers.

The "Russia helping me get elected" stuff is true, but the "nothing to do with" part isn't.

Also, remember the time Trump pleaded to Russia that, "if you’re listening, I hope you’re able to find the 30,000 [Hillary Clinton] emails that are missing," because "you will probably be rewarded mightily by our press"? Oh, the memories.

The brief moment of clarity was short-lived, as the president went back to flagrantly lying and flagrant hand gestures.

Now that the president has finally acknowledged that Russia sustained a massive cyberattack on American democracy that happened to work in his favor, is he going to fulfill his oath to "preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States" by assuring that 2020 is a free and fair election?

Haha, of course not.

Guy admits online to harassing women at Planned Parenthood. Internet vigilantes fight back.

0
0

Isn't it weird how the "pro-life" movement seems to attract some of the worst, angriest, slimiest slimeballs on the planet? It's like this platform isn't actually about saving lives—but instead about controlling women. Case-in-point: a man named Jordan Hart in Tucson, Arizona, announced on Facebook recently that he would be taking photos of women's license plates as they entered and exited the local Planned Parenthood, claiming that he would use that information to "go to people's homes" and "educate" them about abortion. This is a terrifying breech of women's privacy and safety not to mention supremely obnoxious.

According to the Facebook group, Planned Parenthood Baby Parts Emporium, the local police were contacted but said there is "nothing they can do about it." So in an example of vigilante Facebook justice, the group shared the man's photo along with a PSA to women:

They wrote:

This man’s name is Jordan. He is taking photos of license plates and photos of people entering and exiting planned parenthood in Tucson, Arizona. According to him, he is going to use that information to go to peoples homes to “educate them” on abortion According to Tucson PD, this is a non-issue and there is nothing THEY can do about it until it’s essentially too late.

So I’m giving a PSA to anyone in the Tucson area who goes to planned parenthood to keep an eye out for him. He has openly admitted his intention to criminally harass, stalk, and intimidate people. Keep yourselves safe and keep an eye out for this guy following you or photographing you and your vehicle.

The group also followed up by posting this screenshot from Hart's own page, confirming his plans and highlighting his dangerous nature:

Wow, this guy seems nice, huh? Really glad he's on the side of "life."

In response to this human douchenozzle's threats to women, commenters are sharing their gratitude for Planned Parenthood, which actually offers women a LOT more life-saving services than just abortion. The comments highlight why this guy's tactic for "educating" people is not only dangerous but extremely misguided:

This genius announced the perfect act of non-violent revenge: charity revenge!

And so did this woman: public shaming!

Before you blame her for sharing this extremely personal tidbit of information about Jordan, please remember that he a) doesn't respect women's privacy. And b) she is just "educating" the people!!!!! Thank you for your service to the community, Savannah!!!!!

Fortunately this guy reached out to the police, who claimed to be "monitoring" Jordan and his Facebook feed:

Although I'm dubious that the police will do much to help, at least these Facebook vigilantes are on the case, spreading the word (and his photo) to warn women to be careful. If you're a woman in Tucson, Arizona, or elsewhere, seeking reproductive health services, we hope you stay safe. From this dangerous man and also from his teeny tiny weener.

Kylie Jenner called a fraud after hilariously dumb skincare demonstration goes viral.

"Self-made billionaire" Kylie Jenner is expanding her lip kit empire to other parts of the face: the skin!

With all do respect to makeup moguls, skincare is slightly more complicated than makeup—dermatologists go to med school to learn about this stuff. Dr. Kylie, MD is breaking into the game with Kylie Skin, and skin-havers are not impressed.

People on the internet are accusing her of being the Elizabeth Holmes of esthetics...the Fyre Festival of Facewash...the scammer of skincare.

On Wednesday, Kylie Skin posted a video of the eponymous Kylizzl washing her face, and it was analyzed like the goddamn Zapruder film.

First of all, people were quick to notice that the video was shot with a filter, which is totally cheating when you're supposed to see the skin.

Also, anyone who has ever washed their own face knows that it takes more than seven seconds. Plus, the foundation coming out on the towel is a huge giveaway: who puts makeup on BEFORE they wash their face? Somebody who wants to obscure their epidermis, even more than a filter already does.

BUSTED.

The video was ratioed, and the comments are absolutely hilarious.

Choose your fighter.


Dying woman asks if she's an a*shole for wanting to cheat on long-term boyfriend. It's complicated.

If you knew for a fact you only had a year left to live, what would you do with it? This is a question a lot of people have asked themselves hypothetically, but no one can truly answer until they are faced with the reality.

If you're in a committed romantic relationship, a lot of people would want to savor the last moments with their partner. Conversely, however, someone who hasn't experienced what it's like to hit the scene might want to end their days on earth by hitting up the club and kissing some cuties on the way out.

Unfortunately, in cases of life and death, it's impossible to feel like you're winning, and if you have a partner who loves you and is actively grieving your inevitable death, it's extra complicated.

In a recent post on the Am I The Asshole Subreddit, a woman who has one year left to live asked the internet if she's a jerk for wanting to sleep with people besides her boyfriend.

"AITA for telling my boyfriend I want an open relationship because I’m dying?

Ok title says it all but I’ll elaborate some more. I’m dying. It sucks but I’m here. I’ve gone to therapy and have dealt with the fact I only have a “good” year left. I’ve been with my boyfriend since high school. We’re now almost 30. He’s not the only one I’ve been with but it feels like it most of the time. He’s been kind of distant, mostly from shock. I’ve given him time because it’s only been 3 months since we found out."

In her post, the OP shared that she's been with her boyfriend since high school and she wants to travel solo and experience the single girl life before saying farewell.

"We don’t have kids but we do live together. He asked how I wanted to spend my remaining time and I told him I wanted to travel solo for a couple of months. I also told him I wanted to feel what it’s like to be a single girl in her 20s. This might include sleeping with other people. I’ve never lived a life for me."

Since living the single girl life during her travels might include sleeping with other people, her boyfriend has admitted it would make him upset, but he understands that it's her decision.

"My whole life was built around him. I’ve followed him across the country multiple times, be it for school or job relocation and I’ve always been fine with it because I do love him. He said he understood but would be highly upset. My pain is temporary because I’ll soon be gone but the thought of leaving him in this world upset after I’m gone is making me feel like the worlds biggest asshole. So AITA?"

OP admits she feels awful at the concept of passing away and leaving her boyfriend grieving and upset over opening the relationship, so she asked the internet to weigh in.

HilariousInHindsight doesn't think OP is an asshole for wanting to live up her last year, but does think it's an asshole move to ask her grieving boyfriend to stay with her while sleeping with other people.

"YTA. Just dump him. You dying doesn't mean he would want to spend the last year he has with his loved one knowing she's fucking other men. You aren't an asshole for wanting to live life as fully as possible in the time you have left, but you are an asshole for putting this burden on him along with the emotional toll he'd be going through anyway knowing your relationship is on borrowed time. If you want to experience being a single woman, actually become a single woman."

Reddoraptor thinks OP isn't the asshole if she cuts ties ASAP, but if she strings him along while traveling she is the asshole.

"Actually she should dump him now anyway so that he can get on with his life and spend as little time as possible caring for her while thinking about the fact that she wants to be fucking other men. Damage is done, she needs to end it and go live her dream and not drag him down any further than this already has. If she breaks up right now, immediately, NAH, otherwise YTA."

Eulerious is fully in the boyfriend's corner.

"I wonder how much it must hurt someone to know is SO is dying in a year - and that his SO wants to spend most of the time away from him."

Icr711 doesn't think OP is an asshole for wanting to end her life on her terms, but does think keeping the boyfriend around is an asshole move.

"You kinda have to dump him now. The bed’s been shit. He can’t hold you back now that this is in the air, you might as well do it and do it with gusto. No looking back. Maybe you knew that would be the case when you told him. You don’t need permission, and given your lamentable situation, I applaud your spirit to go bite the world however you see fit. It costs something, painfully so, no matter what you choose. So, go with grace, go live. Please."

avocado__dip doesn't understand why OP would want to end their life around strangers who don't love her.

"YTA if you want him to wait around for you at home while you fuck other people. The whole single gal in your 20's thing is overrated. The people you'd have casual sex with won't care about you. I think in the end, everyone would like to be with the people who care about them."

28 hilarious jokes by kids that are funnier than anything we've ever written.

We all know kids can say pretty hilarious things sometimes. For all the outrageous things that come out of their mouths, they can also be shamelessly mean and brutally honest. Shout out to the time the kid I was babysitting looked me in the eye and said, "my mommy has big boobs, why don't you?" Kids are just trying their best to understand the world and the adults around them and they can't help but say whatever is on their mind.

Luckily for our entertainment, there's a United Kingdom-based Twitter account dedicated to jokes written by kids. Surprise! It's better than 90% of Twitter accounts dedicated to jokes written by adults. When you combine the unbridled curiosity of children with their overall lack of social skills and manners, great comedy is born. If you can't get enough, there's even a book.

I was on the fence about having kids, but these are pretty amazing...

1. Genius.

2. Are there "amenments" to the constitution?

3. This is adorable.

4. This is art.

5. Makes sense.

6. Future mean girl right here.

14. This is deep.

Mom orders T-shirt for her daughter and receives something hilariously NSFW instead.

0

Anyone who has done a significant amount of online shopping, like I have, knows the pros and cons. Pros: you don't have to leave your house or put on pants, and you can save money. Cons: you never know what item is actually going to arrive at your doorstep, because the internet is a web of lies. And the more money you save, the higher your likelihood of discovering you've been conned.

Kelsey Dawn Williamson learned this lesson the hard way recently when she purchased an "adorable" tee-shirt for her 3-year-old daughter, Salem. The tee-shirt features iconic fictional characters, Frog and Toad, riding a bicycle. It's cute, it's affordable, and this is what it looked like in the ad:

"Kids Two Frog Riding Design Baby Boys/Girl TShirt Kids Funny Short Sleeve Tops Children Cute T-Shirt"

Hey, they weren't wrong about "Funny." But they might want to take "Children" and "Baby" out of the description. Because this is the tee-shirt that actually arrived:

Not Safe for Work or Kids' Tee-shirts

LMFAO yes that says "F*CK THE POLICE" in case you can't read (don't worry, Salem can't). Luckily Williamson has a great sense of humor and she got a good laugh out of the debacle, and shared the side-by-side pics on Facebook:

What I ordered VS what I received. I fucking love China. I cannot stop screaming. WHO DOES THIS. Editing because I’ve...

She writes:

What I ordered VS what I received.

I f*cking love China. I cannot stop screaming. WHO DOES THIS.

GOOD QUESTION KELSEY LOL. After the post went hugely viral, this poor mom had to follow up with not one but two messages to the hoards of mom-shamers who attacked her for this hilarious post. First she got shamed for letting her child wear a tee-shirt with a curse on it [clutches pearls]:

Editing because I’ve seen some nasty attitudes: SALEM IS 3 AND CAN’T READ.
I DID NOT BUY THIS. THIS IS WHAT I WAS SENT.
NO, SHE WONT WEAR IT IN PUBLIC.
“Why would you take a picture??” YOU WOULD TOO, DONT BE A LIAR.

AMEN TO THAT. And THEN she had to follow up AGAIN after getting shamed for her daughter's weight:

Editing one more time: SHE SEES SPECIALISTS FOR HER WEIGHT. SHE CANT HELP IT. I CANT HELP IT. MY HUSBAND CANT HELP IT. IT IS OUT OF OUR CONTROL. JUST LAUGH AT THE FUNNY SHIRT.

Jesus friggin' Christ, the internet, why are you the worst and why do you love to shame moms so much?????? Please just stop, take Kelsey's advice and JUST LAUGH AT THE FUNNY SHIRT. This is truly one of the funniest things I have ever seen in my life and I have seen all the funny things, it's literally my job. Brb ordering 100 of these for everyone I know including my future children. COME FOR ME, MOM-SHAMERS. I dare you.

Everyone's laughing at Trump not understanding the Constitution to keep from crying.

The President of the United States doesn't know how a lot of things work. Like spelling. Or capitalization. And now... how impeachment works, as written in the Constitution.

On Wednesday, Robert Mueller publicly opened his mouth for the first time in years and all but begged the House to take up impeachment proceedings. The next day, at one of his traditional rants for the press in front of a loud engine, Trump shouted that he couldn't imagine the "courts allowing [impeachment]." One problem: the courts have nothing to do with impeachment.

When Trump touched a bible for the first time in his life at his inauguration, he took an oath and swore to "faithfully execute the Office of President of the United States, and will to the best of my Ability, preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States."

That Constitution of the United States gives the power to impeach over to the House of the Representatives. A trial doesn't take place in the courts, but in the Senate, with the upper chamber voting on whether to acquit or convicted.

As you may recall, in 1998 Hillary Clinton's husband was impeached, but wasn't removed from office, because the Senate voted to acquit him.

If you're not in the mood to read Article II, Section 4 of the Constitution, you can learn all about the process in song form!

President Grab Them By the P*ssy is also suddenly very concerned about "dirty words," calling "the i-word" a "filthy, disgusting word," different from the ones he asked Stormy Daniels to say.

It feels weird to know more than the president, doesn't it?

Even Members of Congress are roasting him.

If he wants to understand the constitution he swore to defend, he should ask an immigrant.

There's also that fun Schoolhouse Rock song that describes separation of powers as a circus metaphor, which he might be able to understand.

Catchy!

Ideally, House Democrats should teach him how impeachment works with a live demonstration.

7 superhero skin care ingredients that'll have you puckering up like a Kardashian in no time

0
0

When you’re looking for skincare and you have specific problems you want to address, like dryness, acne, or dark spots, it can be hard to figure out what active ingredients you need to use. There are so many new serums, moisturizers, toners, and cleansers out there claiming to have ingredients that will give you glowing, beautiful, instagram-ready skin. But these superhero skin ingredients below are backed by scientific research and proven results. Here are ingredients to look out for, depending on your skin concerns.

If you have...DULL SKIN, HYPERPIGMENTATION, AND AGING:

1. Then you need...Vitamin C.
Yes, the ingredient in Fruit Gushers that you used to convince your mom they’re healthy. Vitamin C is an antioxidant that works to brighten your face by increasing the presence of collagen. Collagen makes your skin look more plump than the lips of a Kardashian, so you definitely want to produce a lot of it! If you have a spot on your face from popping a big ole zit or freckles from too much sun, that’s hyperpigmentation. Using Vitamin C can help fade dark marks from hyperpigmentation.

A couple things to look out for when adding this ingredient to your skincare regimen: Vitamin C can become unstable and less effective when exposed to light. Make sure your serums come in a dark or at least opaque bottle to protect the Vitamin C! Also using Vitamin C could increase your sensitivity to the sun, so make sure you’re following up with an SPF!

2. Then you need...Squalene or Squalane.
Squalene oil is recommended for dry skin because it’s heavier. Squalane oil is lighter, so it’s recommended for acne-prone skin types. It’s helpful to reduce wrinkles fine lines, and to lighten freckles.

3. Then you need...Glycolic Acid.
Glycolic Acid is great for exfoliation. It removes layers of dead skin to reveal a brighter complexion. It keeps your skin moisturized and helps keep up collagen production, like Vitamin C. Note: it can increase your skin’s sensitivity, so it’s best to start with a low dose.

If you have...ACNE-PRONE, OR AGING SKIN:

4. Then you need...Vitamin A.
Vitamin A prevents your skin from UV damage and helps ward off signs of aging. Retinol also boosts collagen production, which plumps your skin. This is why people often combine Vitamin C and Vitamin A in their skin regimen. Retinol also increases cell turnover, letting your skin shed the older cells and reveal glowing new skin cells. So if you’re a 20-something with wrinkles and acne, like a green banana with brown spots, you’ll wanna add retinol.

Note: Vitamin A can make your skin incredibly sensitive. Many people report their skin peeling when they start using it. Your skin may be too sensitive to start retinol at all, so make sure you consult a dermatologist before you start using it. You also can start on a lower dosage and work your way up.

If you have...DRY OR COMBINATION SKIN:

5. Then you'll need...Glycerin and Hyaluronic Acid.
These are both humectants, meaning they draw moisture to your skin and trap it in there. Hyaluronic acid can hold up to 1000 times its weight in water, which is a truly nutso yet accurate statement. So applying a serum or moisturizer with those ingredients will leave your skin feeling soft and smooth over time.

If you have...DRY, LARGE PORES, REDNESS-PRONE, ACNE-PRONE SKIN:

6. Then you need...Vitamin B3 or Niacinamide.
Vitamin B3 and Niacinamide help strengthen your skin’s barrier, which means it can lead to keeping more moisture inside your skin. Niacinamide also reduces redness and the appearance of your pores. It can also treat your acne, minimize fine lines, treat hyperpigmentation, and protect you from sun damage.

If you have...UNDER-EYE BAGGAGE:

7. Then you need...Caffeine.
No, it’s not just the thing that makes your morning tolerable. Caffeine decreases puffiness and bags under your eyes by helping your blood circulate more quickly. However, you have to apply an under eye serum with caffeine daily, as its effects can be short-lived.

Before starting any new skincare regimen, it’s important to talk to your dermatologist, and to do a patch test on your hand to see if you’re allergic to the product. Also, a lot of these products take a long time for your skin to see effects, so don’t be discouraged!

Ladiez, these superhero skin ingredients can plump us up, fade us out, and protect us from damage. Think they can pay off our credit card bills, too?

'Game of Thrones' spoiled the finale before the first episode even aired. Here's how.

Our beloved "Game of Thrones" might be over, but that won't stop us from talking about it until we annoy all of our friends and family and end up going crazy in the back of a fantasy section of a library somewhere surrounded by toy dragons, right?

Regardless of how you feel about the finale, there sort of were a lot of signs that Dany might not have been the most just ruler. She wanted power, and power she received. Did we all think she was going to be an angelic and merciful leader when her weapons were three fire-breathing beasts? Come on. Seems unlikely.

While there are petitions to rewrite the ending, it's probably time for all of us to take a step back and accept that the show is over. After all, it's just a show. Spin-off series are definitely coming and there's going to be another book to keep us entertained. However, what if the ending of "Game of Thrones" was in front of our faces all along and we're all just too dumb to pay attention to detail? Because that's exactly what happened.

Here's the poster for season 1:

What is that raven doing there? Were they telling us that Bran was going to end up being king this whole time? BECAUSE IT LOOKS LIKE THAT'S EXACTLY WHAT THEY WERE TELLING US.

Damn. Consider my mind blown.


22 people share their school's 'big scandal.' Always check for cameras.

Every single school has a scandal. Some of them are truly grotesque and horrifying examples of true crime that make the news cycle, while others feel like a ramped up comedic plot arc from Dazed and Confused.

Regardless of how big or small, if you look down the annals of history far enough, every school has a scandal, and sharing these with others is one of the best ways to describe the culture you grew up in.

In a recent Reddit thread, commenters shared the big school scandals from their home towns, and some of these may give you nightmares.

1. MGrego's school lost a man no one will miss.

"The Assistant Principal died in a car accident. There was a big, somber school assembly in his honor."

"His wife said a few words, and then his 14-year-old daughter came to the microphone to say a few words. She sort of snapped and unloaded about how he was not a good guy, he was a monster who had been abusing her and her little sisters and using them for kiddie porn for years - and she was glad he was dead.

I've never heard a room full of people grow so silent, so fast."

2. sagittariisXII' school had a student who won a lawsuit.

"My school district gave all high school students laptops that they could bring home with them to use for school work. They could also remotely activate the webcams and spy on students (although of course they didn't tell us this). One kid got caught smoking weed this way while he was in his room at home and I think was going to get suspended. He sued the district in response for invasion of privacy and won the case. It got national media attention for a little while."

3. Permanenceisall's school's favorite teacher was a bonified perv.

"Everyone’s favorite teacher was in fact banging that student he always hung out with, who would sit in his lap and would visit him after she graduated. They could not have been anymore obvious."

"Edit: For everyone asking this was a performing arts high school in San Diego, from about 2005-2008.

Edit: I don’t know if this is allowed but here’s a link with pertinent info. She got a $1.25 Million settlement because no one acted."

4. TheSethsation witnessed a shady woman in the system.

"My high school districts's superintendent hired a relative who wasn't qualified for the job, increased the salary of administrators every year, used the district's credit card to buy meals, groceries, gas, personal electronics, and gift cards. When the state audit went through they said that the overpay of administrators and the personal spending cost the school district around 1.1 million dollars. Her husband was also an administrator."

"When she eventually got caught, she just retired and for some reason never faced federal charges. When she retired she had a $260,518 salary. My favorite part is that the state audit discovered that the district's credit card was used to purchase logging equipment the same month the superintendent's husband filed paperwork to open a timber company. Everyone knew there was corruption in the school district, but no audits or investigations happened until someone was threatened by the superintendent's husband on Facebook."

5. Zack_A_Ryan's jr high had an orgy.

"In the eight grade, there was an orgy in the bathroom. An orgy. In eight grade. At school. They got busted after teachers heard them moaning. They all got suspended."

6. The39Steps' school had a compelling and horifying true crime scenario on their hands.

"A year after I graduated HS, a woman was stabbed 40+ times with a pair of scissors while jogging on our track on a Sunday. One of the guys in that year’s senior class wound up hanging around the track over the following days, obsessively pestering investigators with questions and theories, so naturally some suspicion fell on him. When the woman’s description of her assailant (she survived!) matched him spot-on, he was arrested, and both the scissors used and his bloody clothes were found at his house. Dude was sentenced to 10+ years in prison."

"End of story, right?

Wrong. Two years after the trial, the jailed kid is ordered released after his little brother, one year younger and a dead lookalike for his big bro, is popped for violent sexual assault on a woman, and confesses to the stabbing during questioning. Turns out the older brother took the fall for him, falsely confessing so that he could keep his younger sib out of jail. Dude never told anyone, but did admit the lie after his younger brother’s arrest and confession."

"I knew both kids when I was a student there. Both brothers were definitely thought to be weirdly intense, but their behavior was attributed to their military dad’s strict style of parenting, and not anything darker."

7. Sweener253's school has two teachers who found love and lost love.

"My highschool Guidance counselor fucked a science teachers wife and everyone knew about it. They got a divorce. Both teachers still work at the same school to this day, and students will never ever let it go. The story has been handed down from year to year."

8. SoapSilly watched a teacher deliver a baby.

"One ninth grader broke water on her field trip and one of the teachers had to help deliver the baby."

9. Iwantcaaaake's school was not a safe place for girls.

"The caretaker killed two local girls and hid them in the school, he tried using the clay kiln to burn them. He later dumped them a few miles away."

10. SingTheDoomSong's school had a full on soap opera on their hands.

"I went to a small Christian high school that also had a middle and elementary school on the grounds. The principal of the high school had a child that was in my grade. One day he comes over the intercom and announces that he's stepping down from his position."

"He then goes on to talk about how he and the female gym coach had been having an 'emotional affair' for the last few months. This announcement goes through every speaker in all three schools. I remember everyone in my class looking over at his daughter who had a look a complete surprise on her face. From what I gathered this was the first time she was hearing about all of this."

"Shortly after the gym teacher also left her position, but the most interesting part? The gym teacher had no idea this was going on. She was just doing her job and thought she was friends with everyone. The principal read more into their relationship and decided to go to the church with it and they made this decision. The gym teacher left her job out of shame and had to spend a lot of time explaining to her husband what exactly was going on."

"EDIT: Adding information that others have asked about. The gym teacher's husband took a little time to realize that there was no actual affair that went on. After that they rumors and gossip in the area got to be too much and he ended up getting a different job pretty far away and moved them both to start fresh."

"The principal and his wife got a divorce within a day or so of the announcement. The wife got custody of all three kids, plus I think eventually their house and a fair amount of money. The former principal took a job selling either cars or furniture, I can't remember which, and pretty much faded from the radar. I don't think his eldest daughter had anything to do with him after all of that. I wanna say that she intentionally made sure he stayed away from her wedding."

11. yellowskies2393 saw a popular guy go down.

"A very popular guy at my school was arrested for videotaping people using the restroom. He was 18. They were not."

12. ichkilldich's school had a major loss.

"A girl died in the pool during an event at the school, the swim teacher was blamed and was prosecuted. The girl who died was at my sister's class, both were 7 at the time. That happened over 10 years ago, but the parents haven't had another child since, she was their only kid."

13. dc12343's principal was getting bread.

"The assistant principal was embezzling money. It promptly started a hashtag."

14. disco_thief's school became a meme.

"My high school had some fights that for some reason managed to make the local news, and the principal’s words about it were broadcasted as well. She was pissed, and talked loudly in a passive aggressive manner over the announcements the next morning, repeating our school’s mission statement over and over, ending the broadcast with “record THAT!”

“Record that” became a bit of a meme around the school after that, and the school seems to have lightened up about the situation since because the journalism team’s shirts have “RECORD THAT” written across the back."

15. Someone at abstract_noun's enacted revenge porn.

"Someone spread photos of naked female students which forced some of them to drop out."

16. needforscreeb's school had some not-so-bright potheads.

"5 or so guys got caught smoking synthetic weed (the kind that utterly reeks and WILL fuck you up internally) in the school toilet right next to the biology rooms, where the biology teacher had just got out of being a drug officer in the MET."

"When asked if they smoked cannabis in the toilets, apparently one of them (he was new to the school and didn't speak much English) said "no, I only smoked weed".

17. DackJaniels007 went to a school with multiple creep teachers.

"We had two teachers arrested for secretly recording kids in separate incidents. Our wood shop teacher had a low angle camera on the floor pointing up towards the seats, and also would slide an iPad out from under his desk when girls would walk up to it. He let a student borrow his flash drive, who found the evidence."

"Then our speech teacher was caught hiding a camera underneath the sink in one of the private bathrooms that special education used..."

18. billbapapa's school had a teacher who committed suicide after his pedophilia came out.

"Someone spray painted "_____ is a kiddy diddler, ask ____" on the wall of the school. Everyone saw it when they showed up. The teacher was nowhere to be found that day. The girl was also no where to be found."

"I remember it was a Friday, cause the day was crazy with people talking about it, but it sort of died down on the weekend. Monday we find out the guy killed himself that weekend. Later, talking to the girl, sadly it was very true. Others came forward later. It was a pretty shitty situation."

  • Kiddy Diddler = Child Molester

  • ~30 years ago

  • "Girl miraculously seemed normalish after. I think she was hella strong.

  • I didn't actually know any of the other girls who came forward, or don't remember knowing them."

19. G0ffrey's school was full of terror.

"Two things,

  1. We had a bomb threat and the teachers would not tell us who sent it until the school paper leaked it and for the rest of the year admin and the paper had a back and forth power battle."

  2. Not our school but our sister school, the principal of that school got fired because he was found in a hotel room with a dead hooker on the bed and a mountain of coke on the desk

20. irishamerican's school had a fatal goth phase.

"In my senior year, a group of friends (who were Goth before Goth was really a thing) experienced a tragedy when one of the friends accidentally killed the other. The friend who caused the accident took his life a few weeks later. This touched off a wave of suicides at my school, 5 in total, over the next 3 months."

21. Whi7ee's brother's friend was a genius.

"Someone created a fake facebook profile for our principle. He was commenting realistically on teachers pages but the context never lined up "nice to see you last weekend Ms. Brown".

"Then once he had everyone as friends, he started subtley roasting kids hahaha

(He accessed the account from the computer lab and was never caught.) He was my friends brother"

22. realultralord's classmate went to jail for a threat.

"Some guy jokingly wrote "If I won't get a B for this I'm going on a rampage." on his english test. fast forward 15 minutes, a police response unit of twelve stormed the classroom and fucking arrested the shit out of him (without being brutal, but it still was quite frightening for deterrence reasons I guess)"

King Bran the Broken reveals that George R.R. Martin is to blame for that twist.

At least 1.6 million of the people who hated Game of Thrones season 8 place the blame squarely on showrunners David Benioff and D.B. Weiss, but in at least one respect they were simply George R.R. Martin's bannermen.

According to Isaac Hempstead-Wright, aka Bran Stark, aka The Three-Eyed Raven, aka King Bran the Broken, the cue to anoint him king came from Martin himself (And also possibly the season one poster).

"[Creators] David [Benioff] and Dan [Weiss] told me there were two things [author] George R.R. Martin had planned for Bran," Hempstead-Wright told HBO, "and that was the Hodor revelation, and that he would be king. So that’s pretty special to be directly involved in something that is part of George’s vision. It was a really nice way to wrap it up."

Tyrion may have insisted that Bran had the best story—and therefore the best claim to the Iron Throne—but the internet disagreed.

Hempstead-Wright was surprised to learn his character's fate.

"It was the very last thing I expected to happen. I was convinced they had sent a script to everyone in which they become king or queen, so I still didn’t believe it until the read-through," he said.

Once hearing that it's for real, Hempstead-Wright was on board with King Bran like the rest of the council.

"I think he is a great character to take on that role," he explained. "You never thought of him in that way, but what more could you ask for in a king than to have no personal attachments, no agenda, but have a calm understanding of the entire universe? He’s the ideal person to be in charge."

While he has commented on Bran's fate, he has yet to comment on Bran being known as "Bran the Broken." Not gonna lie, it's pretty mean!

Rihanna just reminded us people STILL say her name wrong. The internet has had it.

What is it that people just can't grasp about Rihanna's name(s)?

First, there was the uproar over the fact that her beauty and fashion lines are called "Fenty" because it's... ummm... her last name. Duh, guys, do you even Google?

And now people are freaking out about how to say Rihanna. See, a lot of people say "Ri-On-Na" or "Ri-Ahh-Na" when her name's actually pronounced "Re-Anne-Na."

We've heard Ri pronounce her name this way before. But this "news" is shaking the world due to a video Rihanna did for British Vogue, which came out last night in honor of her debut collection. (Reminder: she is the first black woman to head up a major fashion brand for LVMH, the most important luxury design conglomerate in the world. Don't let all this name kerfuffle distract you.)

Yes, she said it. And all hell broke loose.

Apparently the faulty pronunciation is an American thing?

Some are shook by the fact that people are mispronouncing it at all.

Many are just annoyed we had to go through this again.

All this is well and good but the real question is: what's the name of her next album?
