Pat Foley signed off as voice of the Blackhawks

Foley has called games for the Blackhawks since 1980. He’s been a huge part of the team’s history including the dynasty era of three Stanley Cups. He was an amazing storyteller, and added that extra depth for fans when watching. Foley left the city of Chicago with a Warren Zevon quote: “If I leave you, it doesn’t mean I love you any less.” You will be missed Pat. You are the voice of the Blackhawks.

How to ruin an Uber driver’s night…

This Uber driver was having a decent night until one of his passengers forgot some common sense. He keeps his cool but you tell, even under a mask, that he’s pretty frustrated. Yikes. At least the passenger is OK, right? Right?!!

You won’t believe why Kim Kardashian breaking down!

The Kardashians had their first episode on Hulu on Thursday and it’s already gettin’ steamy. Is there another sex tape out there of Kim?! We all know there’s ONE, the one that, put her on the map. Obviously, she doesn’t want it out there if there is another one. Watch!

The BEST work fails of 2022

If you haven’t screwed up at work then you’re a liar! Some people just do it on a larger scale than others. These people deserve an award… the Darwin award! Watch some of the “greatest” work fails so far of 2022 and be happy it wasn’t you.

Twenty One Pilots bringing “psychedelic” Scaled And Icy show to theatres

Twenty One Pilots is coming to a theatre near you.

A movie theatre, that is.

You may remember — or viewed — the live stream experience around the release of their album Scaled and Icy in 2021. Tyler & Josh have reimagined it and created an extended cut that they say will be a “performance on a massive scale.”

It’s happening one night only, on May 19th. And I would suggest signing up for early access to tickets if you are interested.

Do you PDA? Here are some obvious rules you should be following

Alright we get it, you love each other! It’s ok if your love language is constantly putting your tongue down each other’s throats. But there are some rules if you’re in public. Public displays of affection, or PDA, are OK as long as you follow these simple pointers.

  1. Stop in front of the kids- they don’t need to see that. Let them figure it out naturally, on the internet.
  2. Hey! I’m trying to eat over here! Sometimes people want their pasta without watching you canoodle.
  3. Don’t be that couple that makes the third wheel feel awkward. They didn’t sign up for that. They get it, they’re alone.
  4. Don’t block busy areas. Being in direct traffic is really annoying to people just trying to walk.
  5. In da club? Go crazy. It’s dark, there’s tons of people, it’s expected. Go nuts you crazy lovers.
  6. Uber? The driver knows the deal, a little kissing is fine. Just make sure you tip well.
  7. Straddling. Please don’t. The only acceptable time would be on a horse or motorcycle. You don’t have either, so knock it off.

This female streaker got taken DOWN!

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.”

@javoncrystal

When you run the whole field & then get absolutely destroyed…. I told ya I was guna do it 😉🤦‍♀️ #fyp #foryourpage #destroyed #nrl #streaker

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.

Fall Out Boy’s Joe Trohman to release memoir this fall

Fall Out Boy‘s Joe Trohman is dropping a book on us all this fall.

Described as “full of revealing stories from his youth and his experiences of modern rock and roll stardom,” I’ll be interested to see how much of the memoir includes his experiences here at New Trier High School and his time in Arma Angelus.

The release date is in September, but you can find pre-order information below:

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…
