Oreo “Cakesters” Are Back for the First Time in a Decade

Has enough time passed to feel nostalgic about the year 2007? The people at Nabisco seem to think so. They just brought back Oreo CAKESTERS 15 years after they debuted. If you don’t remember Cakesters, they’re a softer version of Oreos that look more like a Whoopie Pie. They were around for about five years, and some people loved them. But they got discontinued in 2012. Over the weekend, they started selling them at the last Blockbuster on Earth in Bend, Oregon . . . because it’s the, quote, “only place where it’s still 2007.” But you’ll also be able to get them at select…

Do You Still Have Christmas Decorations Up?

New TikTok Challenge: Can You Successfully Peel a Raw Egg?

After eating Tide Pods and falling off milk crates, it’s almost refreshing to see a TikTok challenge that’s ONLY about wasting food: The new TikTok trend is to film yourself trying to peel an egg that’s still RAW. Which IS possible, apparently. It’s something doctors and dentists do in school to practice their skills, and it’s VERY hard to do without piercing the membrane inside the shell. The most popular tools to use seem to be tweezers and cuticle pushers. You just have to be patient and break off tiny pieces. Getting the last few pieces seems to be the hardest part. …

Did You Do Nothing This Weekend?

Hopefully you had a nice, relaxing weekend. But was it TOO relaxing? Is that even possible? Someone polled over 5,000 Americans and asked if they ever feel guilty for taking a full day to do nothing. That means you probably slept in . . . lounged around all day . . . got zero accomplished . . . and went back to sleep. According to the poll, most Americans DON’T feel guilty. 58% said they feel good after taking a day off like that . . . 42% feel guilty. You’d think that as we age, we’d feel more and…

Bob Saget Dead at 65

Bob Saget was found dead in a hotel room in Orlando, Florida Sunday. There’s no word on the cause of death. Police say there were no signs of foul play or drug use. He was 65 years old. Bob was in the middle of a standup tour, and he’d just performed the night before in Jacksonville. After the show, he posted a selfie and said, quote, “Loved tonight’s show . . . Appreciative audience . . . I had no idea I did a two-hour set tonight. I’m happily addicted again to this [stuff]. Check BobSaget.com for my dates in 2022.” His…

Debt Collectors Are Now Permitted to Slide into Your DMs

No one is ever excited to be contacted by DEBT COLLECTORS . . . but their attempts to reach you could get even more annoying, because now they’re allowed to SLIDE INTO YOUR DMs. New regulations went into effect this week that let collectors reach out to people through their social media accounts, including Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter. About one-third of U.S. adults with a credit report currently have debt in collections. If you’re one of those people, you should know that debt collectors must abide by several rules. They can’t butter you up with heart and eggplant emojis .…
