When it comes to working out, we’re not all strongmen like Hafþór Júlíus Björnsson (aka the Mountain from Game of Thrones). In fact, many of us could go our entire lives and still have no clue how a lat pull-down differs from an incline bench. Which is to say, there’s...
Sex is great. You know that. We know that. Even your mom knows that (think about it — you’re here, aren’t you?) But do you know what’s even greater than sex? All the ways having sex improves your overall well-being, which we’ve listed below. Sex Helps You...
You’ve got a bowl of beans staring back at you, an oozy, luscious brown brittle of ground beef swimming in a pool of pinto bean bubbles. “Eat me,” you hear it say. “Eat me… and fart your brains out.” But what if you’re in polite company? What...
