Congratulations, you conquered puberty and (hopefully) no longer have to deal with persistent pimples and perpetual voice cracks. But despite the promise of being able to grow an impenetrable beard once your hormones finally finished kicking in, here you are, a fully developed man, staring wistfully at...
50 years ago, a hairy chest was considered to be a badge of machismo, modeled proudly by any man fortunate enough to have hyperactive follicles. Lindsey Buckingham of Fleetwood Mac, for example, championed the male scoop neck tee, which broadcasted his twisty tangle of chest hair. Virtually...
We know, we know, the couch is a safe space where you can exist on cheesy chips and streaming binges while ignoring your bothersome real-life responsibilities. But if you plan on having the discipline necessary to follow through on your New Year’s fitness resolutions — and want...
It can be painfully obvious, at times, when another human hates the gifts you gave them. But when you drop a brand new chew toy in front of your beloved pet and they immediately rip the thing to shreds, it can be difficult to tell whether they...
The idea that Santa, a man with a bulbous belly full of milk and cookies, can slide down a chimney might seem preposterous to the average human. But to a contortionist, even the tightest of squeezes is a mere challenge. To show you just how incredible Santa...
So you went a little overboard with your Christmas tree last year, huh? You were feeling extra festive, and you bought the tallest, most cumbersome pine that your local dealer had to offer. Somehow, one of the employees managed to strap it to the top of your...

There you are, sitting in a metal tube flying high above the Earth at 34,000 feet, and only one hour to go before the captain announces it’s time to put your tray tables and seat backs in their fully upright and locked positions, and prepare for landing....
You spent last Christmas lodging with family, gobbling their ham and guzzling their beer, so it makes sense that you felt compelled to return the favor this year. Now, these relatives — whether your own or ones you acquired upon marriage — are nice and all, but...
Having to crash with in-laws (or anyone else) over the holidays can put just about anyone on edge. Besides them being at least some kind of crazy, the nagging feeling that you could be overstaying your welcome, draining their fridge or just plain getting in the way...
Ah, the holiday party: That annual challenge where you’re expected to look nice, but also sort of cosy, while perhaps also somehow incorporating red and green in a way that doesn’t look like absolute festive crap. We asked some experts what to wear to every kind of...
There’s a lot to look forward to at the end of the year: Quality time with friends and family (if you’re into that sort of thing); the promise of gifts (like a new pair of socks); and of course, an extra 10-to-15 pounds of winter weight to...
