Women can do anything men can do, including go streaking! This brave woman told her friends she was going to run on the field in her sports bra and she did it! Unfortunately for her, even though she’s good-looking, she still broke a ton of rules and had to be taken down. And boy did she get tackled. She posted the video to her TikTok saying, “I old ya I would do it.”
Playing “whadja do” outside the courthouse is always a good a time
If you haven’t had to go to court, you haven’t lived. But you can live vicariously through these guys, who are waiting outside to get inside. Everyone in line is there for a different reason, watch until the end when it gets- REAL. I bet this guy is sorry he asked the last one what he did, run dude, run!
She’s a professional… baby namer?
Naming a child is serious business for some parents. It’s also serious business for 33-year-old Taylor Humphrey. She gets paid around $1,500 to name someone’s kid! There have even been some instances where she’s been paid around $10k to do so, insanity! In 2020, she made over $150,000 helping people name their munchkins. The New York businesswoman calls herself a “passionate writer and storyteller” but doesn’t have any children herself. She used to be a matchmaker before she started this business in 2015. Humphrey said that sometimes parents will use her suggestions as middle names.
How messed up is real estate? $800K, as is, WITH PERSON LIVING IN BASEMENT
How screwed up is the real estate market right now?
People are absolutely SCRAMBLING to get either level up or get into some sort of home before interest rates get completely out of hand. So that’s why I’m not even blinking when I see a listing like this from Zillow Gone Wild:
To recap, you would be buying a home with someone already living in your basement. A stranger. Who pays you no rent. And you have no access to see what kind of conditions this person lives in nor whether or not said person is a serial axe murderer.
To be honest, this sounds like something straight out of the Netflix series Ozark. But like, a lot less entertaining.
And before you argue that there is NO WAY someone would buy under these conditions, the home is under contract as of 4/13/2022.
This, folks, is the real estate game in 2022. The only way to win is not to play. Maybe.

When she realizes what her name is in your phone…
This chick is not happy! She found out that she is listed as “Stacy Hanna Men’s Warehouse” in her HUSBAND’S phone. Yes, she worked there when they started dating, but it’s OK to update your phone bruh! Some people have cute little nicknames for their loved ones. He could’ve updated it at anytime over the course of a few years. And there’s endless things he could’ve put in- “my love” “wifey” “other half.” Now, the ringer is another story. I know a guy that put the Star Wars Imperial March for his wife when she called. It was not a good day when he lost his phone and she had to call it…
Kurt Cobain’s “Smells Like Teen Spirit” guitar could get $800K at auction!
The 1969 Fender Mustang that Kurt Cobain used in the “Smells Like Teen Spirit” video will be up for auction through Julien’s Auctions on May 20th. A portion of the proceeds will go to Kicking The Stigma, a mental health charity, to go along with Mental Health Awareness Month. They are starting the bids between $600-800k, but they admit that’s pretty low given the guitar’s place in music history. They’ll also be selling his Dodge Dart he nicknamed “Baby Blue.” Here he is playing the iconic, left-handed Fender.
Grandma knows how to party!
It’s 9am on the golf course, so of course 80-year-old Linda has a drink in her hand! Just because she’s old doesn’t mean she can’t party. Watch and see why she thinks she needs it. That’s the kicker here. Something tells me her golf game might not be on point. Or maybe she needs it all to calm down, focus, and whack that ball into oblivion. Chug Linda, chug!
A foul ball made this guy’s White Claw explode in his face
If you’re gonna sit in the first row, you have to pay attention. This guy was, but thankfully his White Claw was there to protect him! All he got was booze to the face. And he seems kinda happy about it! Maybe he realized everyone will know that he was drinking a White Claw and had to laugh at himself.
The new soundtrack for hating your job

American Buffalo seen roaming in Chicago burbs
There’s an American Buffalo that’s been hanging out in Chicago’s northern burbs. Someone in Hawthorne Woods saw the giant roaming around there recently and caught footage of it. This actually isn’t the first time residents have seen buffalo either. Some people wonder if it’s “Tyson the Byson” that got loose last September in Wauconda. The Lake County Sheriff says call police if you see her.
