Life advice you didn’t ask for, trends you’ll forget by next week, and feel-good fluff designed to help you stop doomscrolling, at least for five seconds.
Once upon a time, “breakfast in bed” was the ultimate romantic gesture. Now? For a lot of people, it’s just a one-way ticket to sleeping in a pile of toast shrapnel.
A while back, a bizarre survey found 80% of people say crumbs in bed ruin their sleep. Which sounds fine… but raises a disturbing follow-up: are the other 20% totally fine rolling around in bacon bits and scrambled egg fossils?
Still, plenty of people risk it. 35% admit to eating in bed, usually late-night snacks like cookies, chips, and popcorn. (Basically the three foods most-scientifically-designed to generate maximum crumbs.)
But here’s the kicker: 33% say eating in bed is a dating deal-breaker. And among Millennials, that number jumps to 38%… even though Millennials are also the most likely to sneak snacks under the covers. Talk about sleeping with the enemy.
So yeah, breakfast in bed might sound sweet… or satisfy sudden snack cravings you’ll regret later. But if you don’t want your sheets to double as a sandpaper exfoliator, be REAL CAREFUL about your execution.
There’s nothing like a night around the campfire—roasting marshmallows, swapping stories, maybe dodging a raccoon or two. But the one thing no one wants to bring home from the woods? That smoky, lingering campfire smell that clings to your clothes like it has squatters’ rights.
Luckily, there are a few simple tricks you can use to evict that stubborn scent and freshen up your wardrobe. Here are five proven ways to get your clothes back to their pre-s’mores glory:
1. Air Them Out
Before you panic and toss everything in the wash, try the old-fashioned approach: hang your clothes outside in the sun and wind. Fresh air and UV rays can help break down odor molecules naturally. Let ’em flap in the breeze for a few hours and see what a difference it makes.
2. Wash With Warm Water
Heat helps loosen the fabric fibers and allows trapped odor particles to escape. Just make sure to check the care label on your clothes first—some items prefer cooler temps.
3. Add Baking Soda
This pantry staple is a deodorizing powerhouse. Toss about half a cup into your washing machine along with your usual detergent. Baking soda works to neutralize smells instead of just covering them up.
4. Try Activated Charcoal
Not just for your teeth or your fridge—activated charcoal can absorb smells like a champ. Seal your smoky clothes in a bag with a few charcoal briquettes (or charcoal odor absorber packets) and leave it overnight. Don’t worry—it won’t leave a charcoal smell behind.
5. Lemon Juice Spray
Mix one part lemon juice with six parts water in a spray bottle. Lightly spritz your clothes inside and out, and let them dry completely. It’s like natural Febreze—with the added bonus of smelling like you just cleaned your kitchen.
Bonus Tip: Prevention
Next time, try wearing a designated “campfire hoodie” you don’t mind getting a little smoky. Or better yet, change into fresh clothes before bed and seal the smoky ones in a bag until you can wash them.
If you’ve ever thought, “Wow, these fans seem a little rowdy,” you might be onto something. A new survey of over 3,000 football fans has revealed which NFL teams have the thirstiest fanbases—and it turns out some people treat Sunday like it’s Thirsty Thursday.
According to the survey, Arizona Cardinals fans top the list when it comes to game day drinking. Nearly 19% of Cardinals fans admit to having five or more drinks while watching the game, which definitely puts the “wild” in Wild Card Weekend.
Buffalo Bills fans came in second (maybe it’s all that table-smashing energy they need to fuel), followed by supporters of the Houston Texans, Carolina Panthers, Tennessee Titans, Washington Commanders, LA Chargers, New York Giants, New Orleans Saints, and Jacksonville Jaguars.
On the flip side, the most sober-curious fanbase seems to be in Green Bay. Only 3% of Packers fans hit the five-drink mark, which might be because they’re already full on cheese curds.
Seahawks fans in Seattle came in second for least likely to binge, followed by the Steelers, Dolphins, Patriots, Chiefs, Bears, Colts, Lions, and Jets.
The Cleveland Browns landed right in the middle at 20th place, which might surprise some people given the team’s historically, uh, challenging seasons. Maybe Browns fans are just emotionally numb at this point, or maybe they’ve learned to pace themselves after so many heartbreaks.
The findings come from a survey by Action Network and shed a little light on how different fanbases cope with the highs and lows of their teams. Whether it’s celebrating a win or drowning a loss, NFL Sundays clearly come with a few rounds.
So if you’re heading to a tailgate this fall, maybe keep an eye on the Cardinals fans. And if you’re watching with someone from Green Bay, just bring extra cheese—they’re probably good on beer.
Fall is one of the most celebrated seasons of the year, bringing cooler air, vibrant leaves, and a mix of cozy and festive traditions. It’s the time when people trade swimsuits for sweaters, and enjoy activities that only come once a year. From family-friendly outings to spooky adventures, here are the top ten most popular fall activities ranked by what people love the most.
Visiting pumpkin patches and carving pumpkins Nothing says fall like picking the perfect pumpkin, then carving it into a spooky (or silly) jack-o’-lantern.
Apple picking at a local orchard A seasonal staple where you can gather a basket of crisp apples, often paired with cider and donuts on-site.
Exploring corn mazes These giant puzzles bring out everyone’s adventurous side and are a family favorite in October.
Attending fall festivals or harvest fairs From small-town craft shows to big county fairs, fall festivals combine food, music, and local traditions.
Visiting haunted houses or spooky attractions A must for thrill-seekers, haunted houses deliver the perfect dose of chills and laughs during spooky season. If you’re in Indiana, you need to check out the Indiana Fear Farm. Just beware the Headless Horseman!
Hiking or nature walks to enjoy the changing leaves Fall foliage peaks in September and October, making this the most colorful time of year to hit the trails.
Watching football games (or tailgating) Whether it’s Friday night lights, college rivalries, or Sunday NFL, fall and football go hand in hand.
Having bonfires with s’mores and cozy blankets A chilly night by the fire is perfect for roasting marshmallows, telling stories, and soaking up autumn vibes.
Drinking hot apple cider or pumpkin spice lattes Warm seasonal drinks are a fall tradition, whether you’re a PSL loyalist or a cider purist.
Baking seasonal treats like pumpkin bread, apple pie, or cider donuts Kitchens smell their best in fall, with spiced baked goods that taste like the season itself.
Also shout out to hay rides. Unless you’re allergic, then it’s hell on Earth. What’s YOUR favorite fall activity?
Pumpkin spice is no longer just a flavor, it’s a full-blown personality – and apparently, it’s got rizz.
Google Trends revealed that searches for “pumpkin spice” hit an all-time high in 2025. That’s right. Not in 2015. Not when the PSL first dropped over 20 years ago. Now. This stuff is somehow still getting more popular. Or, we’ve at least got more reasons to google it.
The PSL hype always ramps up in September, but people aren’t just looking for coffee anymore. In the pumpkin-spice-packed world we now find ourselves in, it’s like a full-blown pumpkin spice treasure hunt.
Google says “pumpkin spice near me” hit an all-time high in 2025, with Florida and New Mexico leading the charge on that one. Makes sense if you think about it. No fall foliage? No problem. Just drown everything in cinnamon-nutmeg fog.
Google also looked at the toptrending pumpkin spice products people have been searching for ahead of fall, and you need none of these. But if you want all of them, you’re far from alone.
Top Five Pumpkin Spice Products

Pumpkin spice toilet paper. Hopefully, houseguests won’t have to google “pumpkin spice allergy a**hole.”

At this point, I’m not sure where we go next. Pumpkin spice inhalers? Pumpkin spice pepper spray? Will Pep Boys finally offer that PSL brake fluid we’ve been asking for?
If you’ve ever been stung by these things, you already know that some hurt a little… and some make you want to draft a will on the spot.
A recent poll found the most painful sting of all is from a hornet. And honestly, no one’s surprised. Hornets aren’t just bugs… they’re flying anger issues with wings. 98% of people who’ve been stung by one said it hurt, and 61% said very painful. (The other 39% were probably still crying too hard to answer.)
Wasps came in a close second on the pain scale, followed by yellowjackets, fire ants, and jellyfish. Basically, if it has stripes or lives in the ocean, don’t touch it.
The survey also asked which bites and stings people have experienced… and the results are like a “who’s who” of things that can ruin your picnic:
Mosquito – 91% (a.k.a. the unpaid interns of Hell)
Bee – 75%
Wasp – 52%
Flea – 51%
Fire ant – 46%
Horse fly – 42%
Yellowjacket – 40%
Tick – 39% (nature’s clingiest ex)
Hornet – 30%
Lice – 23%
Bed bugs – 21%
Deerfly – 17%
Jellyfish – 15%
Snake – 6%
Stingray – 4%
Portuguese man o’ war – 3% (basically a jellyfish with a lawyer)
So yeah, mosquitoes may annoy the most people… but hornets are officially the heavyweight champs of pain.
The Girl Scouts are back in the kitchen… and no, it’s not gender roles thing, it’s a new cookie!
Their newest concoction is called the Exploremores, and they’re basically a Rocky Road cookie in uniform.
Here’s the breakdown:
Chocolate cookies ✅
Creamy filling ✅
Flavors of chocolate, marshmallow, and toasted almond crème ✅✅✅
The organization says the cookies are meant to “reflect the spirit of exploration at the heart of every Girl Scout.” Which sounds inspiring… though let’s be honest, some Girl Scouts are just exploring how many hours they can spend on Roblox.
The Exploremoresofficially roll out in January when cookie season starts, joining the classics (Thin Mints, Tagalongs, Samoas, etc.) and newer recruits like Adventurefuls, Lemon-Ups, Toffee-tastics, and Caramel Chocolate Chip.
Noticeably absent? Remember Raspberry Rallys… which were kinda like Thin Mints with a raspberry twist? They seemed to be a hit a couple years ago, but apparently they were a one-off thing.
And don’t bother asking for S’mores or Toast-Yays either. Those were retired earlier this year, so it’s goodbye to cookies shaped like French toast.
So, Girl Scout Cookie Season 2026: Now with added marshmallow crème.
When you’re at a bar or restaurant, do you stress over your drink order? Maybe you should. According to Food & Wine, your go-to beverage might be saying more about you than you realize—and yes, your server is probably silently judging you while you sip.
Whether you’re sticking to sparkling water or ordering something that would make Carrie Bradshaw proud, here’s what your drink choice could be broadcasting to the world.
1. Water: Hydrated and humble—or maybe just frugal. Ordering water? Congrats, you’re either focused on wellness or looking to dodge that $6 soda charge. But there’s nuance here. Tap water says you’re grounded and low-maintenance. Sparkling water? You’re giving “I eat at places with cloth napkins and have opinions about Icelandic salt.”
2. Cosmopolitan: Channeling your inner 2000s diva. This order screams Sex and the City fan, even if you’ve never admitted it out loud. Servers might assume you like your drama shaken, not stirred—and probably with a lime wedge on the rim.
3. Coffee: Depends how complicated you make it. Coffee is a personality test in a mug. Straight black? You mean business. Add oat milk, nutmeg, and whipped cream? Your server now knows you require a 15-step morning routine and probably have “cozy aesthetic” in your Instagram bio.
4. Hot Tea: Self-care in a cup. A hot tea order suggests you’ve journaled about your feelings at least once this week. You’re introspective, sincere, and probably know the difference between “your” and “you’re.”
5. Tito’s and Vodka: Wait, what now? This is a special one. If you order a “Tito’s and vodka,” your bartender will definitely clock it—and maybe post about it. Tito’s is vodka, so what you’re really ordering is vodka with a splash of… more vodka. One bar is even trolling customers by charging $100 for it. Double the vodka, double the confusion.
According to Food & Wine, it’s all part of the unspoken dance between patrons and the people serving them.
So what’s your signature drink? (If you said Yoo-hoo, let’s hang out.)
Plenty of young people can begrudgingly admit when an older’s person’s take is spot-on. (You sure do like your parents’ old fashion choices anyway.)
So it’s only fair we take a break from badmouthing the kids to sing their praises every now and then. Here are the top five things Gen Z gets right.
1. Answering the phone is stupid.
Why are you calling me like it’s 1998? Unless you’re on fire or delivering tacos, text first. Gen Z knows that phone calls are chaotic, unplanned, and emotionally aggressive. There’s no transcript, no emoji tone indicators, and zero time to prepare. If you “just wanted to talk,” please book a slot via Google Calendar like a civilized human.
2. Don’t smoke weed. Eat it.
Gen Z figured out how to get high without smelling like a burnt couch cushion. Edibles are discreet, longer-lasting, and way easier on your lungs. You get the chill vibes without coughing your face off or setting off the smoke alarm. Honestly, it’s wellness-adjacent at this point. Martha Stewart does gummies. That’s all the endorsement you need.
3. Why pay for Netflix when you can steal it?
They tried to make password-sharing a crime. Gen Z turned it into a resistance movement. Let’s be real: If you’re gonna keep raising prices, making shows that are two seasons long, and forcing us to scroll past 17 versions of “Love Is Blind,” then yeah, we’re gonna hop on Aunt Linda’s login. It’s not theft, it’s digital resourcefulness. (Related news: Capitalism is slipping in the polls.)
4. Don’t judge people by the color of their skin. Judge them by the content of their old tweets.
Gen Z didn’t invent cancel culture, they just optimized it. Accountability isn’t about dragging people for sport. It’s about saying, “Hey, maybe you shouldn’t have tweeted that in 2011.” Skin tone has never been a sign of someone’s character, but your digital paper trail might be. Delete wisely.
5. If you have mental health issues, seek help.
It’s way better than marrying a Kardashian and becoming antisemitic. Therapy is not taboo anymore. Gen Z normalized talking about mental health like it’s just part of basic hygiene, because it is. Instead of spiraling in public and blaming fame, they’re journaling, meditating, and booking that BetterHelp session. Way cheaper than a Twitter apology tour.
6. That’s not skin. It’s a giant blank canvas.
Every Boomer said, “You’ll regret that when you’re older.” And Gen Z replied, “I’d rather regret art than regret being boring.” Tattoos aren’t rebellion anymore. They’re fashion, therapy, and identity, all rolled into one. Also, they’re way easier to commit to than a career or a mortgage. So ink up.
7. Bisexuality increases your odds of getting laid.
Gen Z is more open about who they are. And statistically speaking, it’s a solid move. Twice the attraction radius, double the romantic possibilities, and way more dating app matches. They’re just not so stressed about rigid labels. It’s less about shocking grandma and more about being real with yourself. If it works, it works!
8. Forget the office grind.
The 9-to-5 was never sacred. It was just the only option. Now? You can side hustle, protect your work/life balance… and post a few pics on OnlyFans if you’re so inclined – no meetings required! Gen Z figured out how to monetize what Boomers were too shy to even acknowledge. Capitalism gave them lemons, so they sold tasteful thirst traps and bought the lemonade factory. Now the only question is can they earn enough to pay the mortgage on that factory.
9. Marriage is pointless.
Gen Z isn’t anti-love, they’re just not pretending rings equal happiness. When half of marriages end in divorce and most people can’t afford a wedding or a house, maybe committing to yourself first isn’t so selfish after all. They’re rewriting what partnership looks like, and spoiler: it doesn’t always involve a courthouse or matching towels.
So if you’re not too sore from your latest tattoo (or too high from that second edible), give yourselves a pat on the back, Gen Z.
Like Gen X and Millennial babies before you, the freshest generation always gets hated on. (When Gen Alpha shows up and starts using “skibidi” and “67” in work meetings, you’ll understand.)
Keep being you, Gen Z. We like your style… except for those JNCO jeans. They were whack even in ’99.
TikTok is overflowing with talent, laughs, and adventure – but sometimes your algorithm fails you, and it’s hard to know where to start scrolling.
