Toilet paper fit for millennials

Imagine having a roll of toilet paper that lasts three months. Well, that’s exactly what millennials are doing.

Introducing the Charmin Forever rolls, these toilet paper rolls are 12 inches in diameter for household use and 8.7 inches for personal use. These monstrous toilet paper rolls are only $30 and it’s starter kit comes with a stainless steel stand. A lot of millennials are buying these rolls due to their cost-effectiveness and resourceful nature.

The question is, would you buy one?

 Here is a size comparison to a normal roll of toilet paper.

Like a Florida mom, we publicly shamed our intern

If you read the title of this and saw the state that this revenge filled mother is from then there is no surprise about this parenting choice.

A video posted to Facebook on Saturday showed a teenage girl, in the company of her mother, holding a sign that read “I lied. I humiliated myself & my mother,” at a busy intersection.

The video also shows the mother ordering her daughter to continue moving around with the sign to make sure everybody could see that she is, in fact, a liar. The post has thousands of views on Facebook, and many people are aking, is it ok to use public shaming as a punishment for your children?

Well, we had a bit of a situation with one of our interns this morning so we decided to test out this whole public shaming technique.

Here’s what happened. Mullet Man, our newest intern, came in and decided for some reason to share the fact that he once cheated on his wife while she was PREGNANT!

Obviously, the crew could not stand for this so we made our own sign and sent him out to the streets.

Did he learn his lesson? Who cares, Mullet man deserves this!

Celebrities beware, MTV’s ‘Punk’d’ is coming back

It was announced that MTV will be rebooting the show Punk’d!

This time back will be a little different, the network has struck a deal with mobile media tech platform Quibi to bring back the series. So this will be available on mobile! You’ll be seeing 20 new episodes come out that are 10 minutes long.

The prank show was hosted by Ashton Kutcher, but it’s unknown if he will be in the reboot. Kutcher had created the show, which aired from 2003 to 2007 with a brief return in 2012.
MTV will also be bringing back the fairly ancient dating show Singled Out, which is cool and all but they could have brought back Room Raiders or Next instead.

You’ve (not) been punk’d!

BEHOLD! Watch the Frisbee Champions of 1987

It’s fun to laugh at things from the past such as this unearthed video that has not aged well from the delightful smart-asses at the Found Footage Festival. It takes shows how seriously being  a pro Frisbee performer was in the 80’s. Legitimate things said in this video include the host professionally using the term “dude” and how the kids in the audience just love the tricks with the “spinning disc”. Also this video features “Frisbee champions”, which also apparently is a thing?!

“It is the thinking man’s fantasy of unencumbered flight.” Yes, that unhinged phrase got into this produced video which apparently made to get kids buying Frisbees. Here is a longer version of the video, that I found.

 

 

 

You can not unsee the “Human Skin Coin Purse”

Yeah, it’s really weird and vaguely unsettling. Japanese artist ‘Doooo’ posted this recently to Twitter showing off a quite realistic looking “human mouth” that works as a coin purse. Cough up the money if you got it, right?

Who would actually use this in public? It has certainly captivated interest since the initial clip was posted on June 1st with over 13.1 million views.

Is this supposed to be a symbol for how we are talking about money and wealth? No matter what it’s supposed to represent artistically, it is certainly unsettling. Don’t forget to share this with someone who will also be unsettle because it’s worth something to creep your friends and family out. How much is that worth? Oh just give me a second, LET ME LOOK INSIDE MY NEW HUMAN MOUTH COIN PURSE!

You can copy a tv shows living room, all thanks to IKEA

So IKEA has been making a few changes when it comes to their ideas of home decorations, taking a few examples from popular shows.

First off we have the Game of Thrones bathroom…

Not the most ideal set up since we don’t really need that many toilet bowl brushes, plus we don’t use them as wall art.

But they’ve now made three different displays that connect with different living rooms from your favorite shows.

1st is their Room for Families, which is basically the set up of the Simpsons living room.

via GIPHY

The 2nd one is their Room for Mates, can you take a guess at which show that is based on..?
It’s Friends!  They did a recreation of Monica and Racheal’s living room, it looks so similar to the original!

via GIPHY

3rd is the Room for Everyone, based off of Stanger Things. This is one or the most recent shows out of the three, but they offer a lot of details in the living room set up. From the Christmas lights, the paint, and the couches stipped blanket cover!

via GIPHY

If you could recreate any living room set up from a show, what would it be?

Remember when IHOP went to IHOb? Well they made another change

Remember last year when IHOP decided to flip that ol’ P and everyone freaked out? Well, IHOb (International House of burgers) didn’t stick around for a long time, but their obsession with pushing burgers onto the fine pancake eaters of America hasn’t.

Earlier this month IHOP made another cryptic tweet announcing that the P in IHOP was going to stand for something new. Well, early yesterday morning they finally announce what the P was going to stand for…

So, they’re just calling hamburgers pancakes now… cool I guess.  But at least there are some new hamburgers being added to the menu, including one where they put an actual pancake into the middle of the burger!

They should have changed the P to stand for “PLEASE, JUST STICK TO THE PANCAKES!”

Chicago gets a Pride makeover

Chicago is getting itself into the spirit of Pride!

The Chicago Transit Authority has decorated several train cars with rainbows as it has in previous years, but a new installment this year is rainbow crosswalks!

Chicago is painting 14 rainbow crosswalks in Boystown, currently, 7 have been completed. The crosswalks mark the 50th anniversary of the Stonewall riots, an uprising against homophobic police raids at the Stonewall Inn in NYC, which was a huge milestone for the LGBT struggle for equality.
Funding for the project was donated from the Chicago Pride Fest and the street festival Northalsted Market Days.

The 14th completed crosswalk will be dedicated to the transgender community with the inclusion of the blue, pink and white stripes found on the transgender flag.

Everything is said to be completed in time for Chicago’s Pride Fest, which starts June 22nd.

Blink-182: Mark Hoppus clears the air on Tom DeLonge reunion rumors

 

Speculation among Blink-182 fans has been at a fever-pitch over the last week after former band member Tom Delonge did a radio interview in which he said he was talking Mark Hoppus about  “what makes sense and when.” This lead many to run with the idea of Delounge rejoining the band, who have marched on the last few years successfully with Alkaline Trio’s Matt Skiba. Hoppus has cleared the air on the rumors and erased some other rumors about when Blink is releasing it’s anticipated follow up to ‘California’. AltPress turned us on to all this news today.

Speaking with KROQ in Los Angeles in a separate interview, Hoppus said the following about a reunion with DeLonge:

“There is not any talk of that right now. I mean, I’ll never say never to anything, but that is a completely unfounded rumor at this point.”

There has been some fan discussion on social media about a leaked date for the release of the next Blink album, but Hoppus has also stated that is not the case either.

“There is not an exact date“It is coming out this summer. I was just on the phone earlier today with Ron Perry, who’s the head of our label, and we are figuring out the exact launch date. But we are finalizing mixes right now, we have about half the album mastered, and the announce on when the album will be released will be forthcoming.”

Meanwhile the Blink universe collectively celebrated the 20th anniversary of their breakthrough album ‘Enema of the State’ this past weekend with many of them professing their love as a hallmark of a generation. Read more about that here. 

Here is the latest single from Blink-182 recorded for the upcoming album, it’s called ‘Blame it on my Youth’.

 

The 5 Commandments Of Concert Etiquette

Leona Graham from Absolute Radio recently sent out a tweet asking for rules of etiquette at a concert. Almost all the responses elicited an \”AMEN\” from me, especially these 5…

1. Thou Shalt Not Film With An iPad.

2. Honor Thy Barrier Queue.

3. Thou Shall Help Those Who Have Fallen To Rise.

4. Thou Shalt Not Kill The Sound With Chatter.

5. Thou Shalt Not Take Thy Space Of The Barrier In Vain.

Someone Just Figured Out Your Car Has a Secret Built-In Taco Holder

If you are already doing this you may be borderline GENIUS!

A Twitter user named @LazyBoy figured out last week that the little sunglasses holder that pops down from the roof of your car is actually the perfect size and shape to hold a crunchy taco.

He tweeted a picture of a taco in the taco holder, and now it’s going viral.

Catholic school principal was arrested at a strip club while on a school field trip, WTF!?

WTF News

Have you ever woken up with a completely stable life and just decided, you know what….. screw this. That’s exactly what this Louisiana Catholic school principal did when he got arrested at a strip club while on a field trip with his STUDENTS!

The principal was charged with public intoxication and possession of an open container of alcohol after he refused to pay his bill.

Needless to say, he resigned from his position after the arrest. But can you blame the guy? Field trips suck as an adult.

R.I.P iTunes

Appreciate iTunes while you can!

Apple has announced to end the product at the Worldwide Developer Conference. Instead, they will be creating three different media apps for music, TV, and podcasts. Their music app will focus on the streaming music service, Apple Music. It shouldn’t be much of a surprise, many people say iTunes died a long time ago.

But after 18 years since it was first introduced, it’s time to say goodbye.

They’ve already started deleting things off their social media sites for the service.

Scottie Pippen blames kindergartner for damage to rental home.

Marker and crayon defacement by children — is not kid’s play to Scottie Pippen.

The former Chicago Bulls player had already filed a lawsuit against tenants who agreed to rent a mansion of his in Florida.  Now he’s amended it to include damages by the couple’s now five year old daughter — which he alleges total $109,000.

While Pippen’s lawyer defends the move on both legal and moral grounds, the family even went so far as to offhandedly dis another famous Chicago Bull in their response to the move.  Ouch.  — [eric]
