You can relive one of the worst parts of high school all over again! And get paid for your misery!
The tutoring company Learner is going to pay one post-high school adult $1,000 to take the SAT — to see if they can do better than the national average (1060).
You’ll get 3 hours and 15 minutes to finish the exam (that’s about $300 per hour, for those who won’t be excelling in the math portion). And you won’t have to do the essay portion.
“Technically, it’s the endosperm (pit) of a special kind of berry typically from the Coffea Arabica plant. Initially, it’s wrapped in a thin red fruit that’s peeled off during the cleaning process. Then it’s a light silvery green color until it’s shipped and roasted—eventually reaching your kitchen counter.”
Some genius remixed some Nickelback songs and we’re left with the epic song, “PantsFeet.” Turn it up loud and finally give Nickelback the appreciation that they deserve! Bet you can’t listen just once!
We’re not all replaceable at work! And this guy will be the first to tell you that! Listen to this epic rant and commiserate with him. Last name Ever, first name Greatest!
The Cosmopolitan in Las Vegas recently had their employee appreciation buffet where they award one lucky employee with $5,000. They mixed it up this year though and instead of giving it to one person, they gave it to the entire staff of 5,400! That’s a cool $27 million for the company.
This Brewers fan really went for it. He made his way onto the middle of the field to show off his dance moves. Then he took security for a run, then got denied a hi-five from a player before being tackled to the ground. It was good while it lasted.
Jane’s Addiction announced yesterday that they would need to drop out of the Welcome To Rockville fest this weekend due to guitarist Dave Navarro’s “long bout with COVID” and to fill the slot Perry Farrell tapped his other band, Porno For Pyros, for their first full show in 26 years.
“The gang and the government are no different. That makes me 1%,” Farrell wrote in a statement on the festival’s socials. “Rockville, although we are blue that Jane’s cannot be with you at this time due to Dave’s long bout with COVID, I am still coming to Daytona, bringing to you for the first time in 26 years Porno For Pyros Featuring myself, Perry Farrell, Stephen Perkins, Peter DiStefeno and Mike Watt. We’ll play some Jane’s songs for you as well, but for now let’s recall: My boat’s capsized it’s gonna sink to the bottom. I can see the lights on the shore…”
Wonder if we can get them out to Lolla this summer… <3 Lauren
While we’re saddened that Jane’s Addiction can no longer join us, we are beyond excited to have @pornoforpyros perform live for the first time in 26 years ON OUR STAGE THIS WEEKEND. 🤯 🤘 pic.twitter.com/FDiCMbR8Ag

A guy posted his Dad’s hospital from 1952 when he was hospitalized for week and in a coma. Most of us would guess that it would be a few thousand for the whole week given how much things are now. NOPE. This might make you take a knee…
Dayalets were vitamins used to help with vitamin deficiency. In the 1950’s, they advertised these vitamins in weird ways. Pictures of fakes human mascots made out of food were hung in doctors offices, and they look like a nightmare. Check out some of these below. Would these make you want to take your vitamins? OR ELSE?!
Pearl Jam is currently doing some west coast dates. Drummer Matt Cameron tested positive for COVID-19 in Oakland, so the band brought in some guest drummers and the show went on. Then before their Sacramento show and Las Vegas show, bassist Jeff Ament tested positive as well. They tried to make the show go on without Matt, but losing two people at the same time just isn’t Pearl Jam. They had to cancel both the Vegas and Sacramento dates. Ticket refunds will automatically be processed.

People had it rough back in the day when it comes to dating. You either had to ask a stranger out, get set up by your cousin, or go on a dating audition tape through a service. All are terrifying options. Watch this old dating tape and you’ll see what we’re talking about- yikes!
What’s your biggest driving fear? Getting rear-ended? Hitting a semi? This driver was unfortunate enough to have gotten a giant log fly through his windshield, and it looks like it’s straight out of the movie Final Destination. How terrifying!
A lot of people have the hardest time apologizing. Even at a young age this little girl refuses to say ‘sorry’ and it’s adorable. She’s got a good excuse though. Maybe try using this one next time!
Hard to believe it has been five years since we lost Chris Cornell. One of the most talented beings on this planet. Almost, otherworldly. Maybe he is. Please join me at noon central today for a very special tribute to Chris, listen anywhere at Q101.com or ask your smart speaker to play KQX. <3 Lauren
First time meeting Chris back in 2005
I was lucky enough to spend some time with Chris whether on the phone, in person or in the audience watching him do what he was put here to do.
Amazing intimate session in 2015
I’d like to share a sit down I had with Chris that was never posted publicly due to mic and sound issues, and hope you will see past that to feel the intimacy and warmth that was in the 101WKQX Studio 7 on October 7, 2015:
and a clip from the night before at the Chicago Theatre:
The first time I spoke with Chris was over the phone in September of 2012 when he called in to chat about Soundgarden coming back after 15 years gone guns blazing with a new album and tour, this is a clip about wanting fans to have the full album experience:
And about Soundgarden’s brand new fans:
this is a clip about how he grateful he is to do what he does:
Where ever you are, I hope you are at peace. We sure do miss you. No one sings like you anymore.
May is Mental Health Awareness month so it makes sense to ask the question, are you happy? This man was given that same question in a store, randomly, and his answer will change your day and possibly your mind set! Love this guy!
