Relationship Court: I need your help before I pop “the question”
An anonymous, quick-to-the-point listener shot us an email about whether or not their “friend” should be living with their partner before they’re married.
The conversation lives on Facebook! What should this person do?
And the “Most Thankful” award on Thanksgiving award goes to…
This IS the most thankful child on the face of the planet. He gets very emotional at the Thanksgiving dinner table. He loves everyone and everything and is VERY happy. You’ve never seen a kid get so emotional over everything he has, but at least he knows he has a lot in his life! Props to older brother for trying to calm him down; he’s probably seen this before, so cute!
Happy Hanukkah, Dave Grohl has a gift for you!
You and the menorah are about to get LIT! Dave Grohl is back with Hanukkah sessions for 2021. Here he is covering Lisa Loeb’s, “Stay.” Please stay to hear his own dreidel spin on the song. Feel free to head bang.
Cute or creepy? A woman on Instagram wants to know…
This girl had a man slide into her DM’s on Instagram and has wished her “Goodnight Queen” since May. He’s almost at 200, which she claims has lasted longer than most of her relationships. She rarely responds to him but it makes her feel good, and truthfully, she’ll probably never hit him up but loves being told this every night before she goes to bed. She claims every woman should hear this everyday. Cute or creepy?
A Hot Wheels Tree Top Track? Take my money!
This is absolutely incredible! If you’re wondering what to do for your kid for the holidays this is IT. Every child, and let’s be real adult, would love to have something like this. It took over a month to construct and is made of all sorts of Hot Wheels products, a fishing pole, pulleys, ladders, PVC tubing, pool noodles, cardboard boxes, blocks, wood, and of course, a pupper to helped out too. Enjoy watching the loopty loops!
Woman used her prosthetic leg to start a fight at a hockey game
Sometimes you have to make due with what you have and this lady certainly did when she go into a fight at a Vegas Knights game. She used her prosthetic leg to sewing at a man with, that’s creativity…. also don’t try this at home.
Oasis cover band and fans stuck in pub for 72 straight hours
Have you ever been snowed in somewhere? How long do you think you could survive with no electricty, beer, and Oasis? A wild scene is taking place in Yorkshire England right now. 60 people, no electricity, no way out, the only entertainment..an Oasis tribute band (who from this point on will be forever known as Sno-asis). Am I the only one who thinks that sounds like the premise of an Edgar Wright movie? These poor people have been stuck in this pub due to a blizzard going on three days now, keeping themselves sane with board games, karaoke, and I assume copious amounts of alchohol. Can you imagine the size of your bar tab after being stuck in there for three days? Anyways, here’s Wonderwall…
Need to cry today? The Rock has you covered
When he’s not laying the smackdown on bad guys on the big screen, The Rock is putting your heartstrings into submission with good deeds like this one.

Twenty-One Pilots nearly ended their careers in Chicago

A dancing cactus kid’s toy taught children some naughty things!
A grandma ordered a dancing and singing toy cactus for her grandkids. It sang in English, Spanish, and Polish. She understood the Polish song since she speaks it, and suddenly realized that the innocent kid’s toy was swearing and talking about using cocaine. The song it was singing is by Polish rapper Cypis, who didn’t know it was used for the dancing cactus either. The grandma complained and the rapper is planning on taking legal action. Walmart has pulled the “educational toy” form it’s website. Guess the children will have to wait a few more years until they find out about that naughty stuff.
You won’t believe what this woman sells…
She’s selling her flatulence, in a jar! Here’s her “day in the life” of what she eats in order to produce so much methane to stay in business. How do they remain fresh you ask? She stores them in jars with flower petals, then leaves a personalized note for each person that purchases them. Like a poem? Beans, beans the magical fruit…

Some Thanksgiving perspective, thanks from Mark Hoppus of blink-182
A message of thanks on Turkey Day 2021 takes on a whole new meaning when it’s from Mark Hoppus of blink-182.
Mark is free and clear of the cancer he battled this year — so to go from Stage 4 to nothing, I would imagine he has nothing but gratitude. On Instagram, he gave a message of hope and perspective:
“I have so much to be thankful for today. This photo is from June, halfway through chemo, no idea if it was working or not, relegated to the bathroom floor, retching. If I ever complain about something trivial or unimportant, please show me this photo to remind me of how bad things can be, and how truly blessed I am. I hope you all have an amazing day with friends and family. Happy Thanksgiving.”
Words for us all to keep in mind. — [eric]
