Watch a spectator take out a cyclist moments before the finish line!

UGH! Just watching it is painful! Both spectator and racer were taken to the hospital. Moments before this woman tried to cross, another man had done so successfully. Maybe she thought it was safe? The cyclist is being treated for mild head injuries. The woman was airlifted to another hospital. The city is now investigating the event itself, wondering why a fan was able to get ON the road so close to the finish line.

Fast food hack, how to get a free burger!

Free cheeseburger!! It may not be exactly the way you’d think of getting a “free” cheeseburger, but you know what? It works! Hi-five to this guy for working the system at Five Guys. If you were on a date with him and he ordered a double with all of the extras, then split it in half, would you think that was romantic? Yeah, me neither.

A man bought his girlfriend flowers, and she had this to say…

I hate to say it, but I can’t agree with what this woman is saying. She’s mad that they’re not in a vase with water and flower food. Who doesn’t have a vase? I have about half of what a human should have in their kitchen, but somehow I have a vessel to hold flowers. Can’t you just be happy that you have someone to buy you flowers lady? There’s a lot of women out there that would be very happy to get some, even if they’re not in a vase already! Unreal.

Ali’s famiglia recipe for red sauce and meatballs.

I’m NOT a great cook, but I have a trick or two (ok, just one trick) up my sleeve when it comes to food, and that is the Mattacola family recipe for red sauce and meatballs. This will take you all day so get ready to get your hands dirty! Don’t worry, the ingredients don’t have to be fresh. I wish I could say there is some sort of “secret ingredient” but that would be a lie. If it seems like there’s a lot of sugar and wine, you’re right! MANGIA!

Meatballs:
2lbs ground beef
2 tablespoons parsley
1 teaspoon oregano
1 teaspoon basil
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon pepper
1 clove of garlic (minced)
1 egg
1/2 cup bread crumbs with water added
1/3 cup pecorino Romano cheese

Fry meatballs in 1/2 inch of oil in a big stock pot. Put some sort of protective gear on your fingers- that oil pops! Flip those bad boys over one at a time after a few minutes. Hot tip- don’t let them burn.

Drain meatballs on paper towels. Mmm grease. This is when your house starts to smell REAL GOOD.

Empty oil into an empty jar, keep the drippings from the meatballs in the pot. (This is what gives the sauce it’s really good savory flavor).

Put pot back on stove on high heat and add 1/4 cup red wine and use a wisk to get the crud off of the bottom of the pan.  (This important step is called deglazing and is the basis for most stews/soups/etc.).

Sauce:
2 large cans of tomato purée
2 cans of water ( I use the empty tomato purée cans to measure and add in the water)
2 tablespoons parsley
1 teaspoon basil
1 teaspoon oregano
1/3-1/2 cup sugar
1-2 tablespoons salt
Pepper to taste
2-3 garlic cloves (minced)
4 bay leaves

Add meatballs back into sauce once all ingredients have been added.

Simmer for the afternoon, stirring occasionally on the lowest heat.

Bad Neighbors

If you’re in Elmwood Park, you better learn how to fix your own radio. One civilian asked for some neighborly assistance from someone nearby and Elmwood Park and as a result, he’s now without a car.

Dashboard? Gone. Steering wheel? Gone. Radio? Gone. This neighbor? BAD.

How much does a Hooter’s waitress make in tips?

She’s trying to pay medical school!!! No seriously, she’s going! This girl breaks down all things Hooters on her TikTok. The new uniforms, how they get their puppies so perky…. AND how much they actually make in tips. One guy gave her a $60 just for talking to him. Check it!

What Larry David would do as the NFL’s Commissioner…

Hey everyone! Larry David is here to solve football! As acting commissioner he would like to start by getting rid of goal posts. ‘Why should one player decide the game?! Just go forward on fourth down every time. You’re’ playing to score a touchdown.’ And then he’s gonna put punters on notice… he’s got a lot of ideas to unpack here.

An expert discusses faults of the movie Rust.

A lot of protocols were breached on the set of Rust when the firearm that Alec Baldwin was using “misfired.” A misfire is when the gun doesn’t go off, it’s an accidental discharge. Also, the very first rule on the set is, no live ammo. That rule was broken. Then, the cart with the weapons was not being attended fully at all times, also a huge problem. There’s several other missteps which is what led to the tragedy on the set.

They went into overtime, nine times. NINE TIMES?!

The game between Illinois and Penn State had a crazy ending as the game went to nine overtimes before Illinois won that sucker. The game went to overtime tied at 10 and Illinois and Penn State each scored field goals in the first two overtimes. Then starting in the third overtime, teams are required to exchange two point conversions. Neither team could score to save their life and it took all the way until the eighth overtime for each team to score. Then in the ninth overtime, Penn State got stopped on their try and Illinois converted, giving them a stunning 20-18 win over Penn State. The game is the first ever 8+ overtime game in college football history. WOW!!

Guys, there’s one easy way to get your girl back, watch and learn!

This is some trickery right here, but you have to hand it to the guy, it worked! With a little help from his “friends” in the neighborhood, Sam was able to convince his lady to get back together with him after five years. They started dating again, that day! So next time you want to get reunite with your old flame, just convince a few people to act like you’re the best thing ever. What a stud.

Holy f@#%, no more profanity on license plates in THIS state

In 2015, the state of Maine relaxed the restrictions on what you could put on vanity license plates.

That turned out to be a big mistake. 🤭

“It’s not safe for parents or grandparents to play the license plate game with their kids in Maine anymore,” Secretary of State Shenna Bellows said. “You can’t escape the proliferation of the f-word and worse.”

A new law is in effect to reject plates for a variety of reasons, including hate speech, violence, obscenity and those that are sexually explicit and recall those that may fall under these standards.

Here are just a few of the craziest plates I came across: CMYX4BJ, 0FSGIVN, DANK AF, BLOWME, FKURSLF, DIS NTS, and straight up — F@#$U.

Time to ramp up the creativity, Mainers.

See what made a delivery driver lose his cool and destroy a porch full of decorations, watch!

I believe Fred Durst said it best when he said, “It’s just one of those days.” We’ve all lost our cool. I can say I probably would’ve kicked a pumpkin too. Sure, it would’ve been a great release! Now, would I have proceeded to ruin everything in my path of destruction like Godzilla on Adderall… that might have been overkill. People trip over things, dude, take some deep breaths! Still can’t turn away from a good meltdown though… enjoy!

A man let his friend… brand him! Watch if you can take it, he did!

Now, I don’t know if he lost a bet or he just wants to be down with his crew, either way this guy is incredible! He barely flinches (although he is biting down on a rag) when the smoking hot poker touches and sizzles his skin- aghhh! It looks like it hurts so bad, so why can’t I stop watching it?!
