I’d argue that the primary purpose of having your own place is to be nude (and free) whenever you want. I know that taking off my clothes is the very first thing I do when I arrive home from work — before checking whether my living room windows, which...
There often seems to be a direct correlation between the divey-ness of a bar and the strength of its pours. Odds are, the place shilling carefully measured $15 cocktails needlessly served in a coupe glass with a sprig of thyme prooooobably gives you less booze than the place with $4 vodka...
My most toxic habit is reusing my one-day contact lenses. They seem good as new after a day of wear, so I just plop them into a case with some fresh solution. I usually only reuse a pair once but I’ve been known to do it twice....
If you ever took the time to actually read through the drug information pamphlet your pharmacist gave you with your medication, you might notice that it specifically mentions not to eat grapefruit. You might be inclined to toss that advice out the window along with the “do not...
Even if your contact lenses claim to be safe to sleep in, most experts say you shouldn’t: You run the risk of contracting all kinds of potentially blinding infections by doing so, as your eyeball is essentially trapped under a little tarp that’s been collecting dust all day. Your eyeballs also...
I can’t imagine not coming home for Christmas, if only because it’s also my niece’s birthday and I love my mommy. But not everyone feels the warm fuzzies for their family members, and even if they do, that $1,000 roundtrip plane ticket home can really test the...
There has never been so much meat available as there is today. We’re so far beyond our local hunting ground days that not only can you buy your familiar beef and pork at the supermarket, you can even bid on exotic meats like Spanish octopus or green iguana on Facebook. One day all...
Who doesn’t love it when you’re at the beach and a big wave sends a gallon of saltwater up your nose? Don’t you just want to replicate that experience at home? Maybe even pay money to do so? Well, you can! And actually, maybe you should. Despite...
We might have labeled meat-eaters as artery-clogged heathens, constantly mere seconds away from a heart attack, but according to one recent study, they might have one thing going for them: Compared to vegetarians, omnivores could be less likely to have a stroke. Although it goes against all our better judgment about...
That little image of myself in the corner of my video calls is enough to make me never want to reach out to my loved ones again. No offense to Shrek, but I look like an ogre, and not even a hot one like Fiona. My face...
My vision has gotten rapidly worse over the last few years, and my optometrists have told me that basically, it’s because I’m on my phone all the time (not to mention I spend an average of eight hours a day in front of my computer for work)....
Hey, you big drunk dummy. Are you reading this after your eighth post-midnight tequila shot, wondering by what grace of God you’ll be able to sober up enough to make it to your 4 a.m. flight in one piece? Well, I’ve got some bad news, my sweet blackout buddy: You’re...
