Did you know that your handwriting reveals some things about your personality to those who read it? It’s true. I barely know how to write anymore since I type everything. I wonder what that says about my personality. About a year ago, I read that some schools are considering not teaching students how to write in cursive anymore since it’s becoming antiquated. For those of you who still indulge in the art of handwriting, you may find this fascinating. I know I did. Flavorwire recently did ...
Do you eat tofu? I don’t. Do you even know what tofu is? I wrote a whole article about a year ago called Do You Really Know What Tofu Is, but even after that, I’m not sure what it is. All I know is that I’m not going to put it in my mouth. All kidding aside, we know that tofu is better for the environment than a lot of other options when it comes to animals, food and waste. Now in addition to eating tofu, ...
Back in mid-2009, I wrote an article about how to correctly eat a chicken wing. It was my first article ever to go viral. I remember that was the first time I ever got on the digg front page. Does anyone even go to digg anymore? It was a brilliant technique for eating chicken wings, and I’ve used it many times since I eat chicken wings almost every week. Today I found another technique which could possibly trump that other one. If you are eating wings ...
When was the last time you pulled an all-nighter? I know some people who do their best work during sleepless long nights, and I know other people who dread those nights more than anything. The nature of my work requires that I pull all-nighters several times each month. My sleep schedule is so wacky though that it doesn’t bother me too much. I suppose our bodies are designed to adjust to that just like they adjust to everything else. The thing about working all night long ...
I love Chinese food as much as anyone else, but what always blows me away about visiting a Chinese restaurant isn’t so much the food itself, but the attention to detail. The tea is always served in those hand-painted dainty teacups, the napkins always look too pretty to use, and don’t even get me started on the fortune cookies. At least that is how it is at my favorite Chinese restaurants here in Atlanta. When I saw this, I couldn’t stop staring at it. I am ...
It’s not everyday that we see popular toy brands mashed with popular alcohol brands. It’s an unusual mashup that of course sends all kinds of pop culture messages. I’ve always enjoyed seeing creative bottle designs, and these are definitely interesting. The Nintendo and the Barbie bottles are definitely my favorites. Unfortunately, these are not for sale. They were simply part of an art exhibition. They were created by Italian designer Anna Utopia Giordano. According to his website, the purpose of this project was to “raise social ...
If you have ever wondered what it would be like to live in a treehouse, I guess you have come to the right article to find that out. I mean, I am sure we have all thought about it when we were kids that it would be so cool to have a huge house up in a tree. Maybe it was the Star Wars movies that helped us imagine it with the Ewok’s city in the sky and the magical lighting. There are plenty of amazing ...
Whether you’re literally working naked, birthday suit and all, or figuratively working naked — without the support of the corporate workplace — staying safe while working from home is important. After all, if for some reason you can’t work, who’s going to cover for you? These four gadgets can help you stay safe and stay on track when you’re working from home. Working from home can be lonely, especially with everyone gone all day, but what if someone unexpected walks into your home office? If you’re ...
If you are active in social media, it can seem like the same stories and topics are trending and breaking 24/7. Seemingly well, in good health and spirit celebrities have died and been reborn on Twitter just because there are some people who want to see their @ mentions skyrocket. I get that people want to feel important, but there is a ballsier way of getting noticed legitimately. Love it or hate it, social media is the new reality T.V. It is the HBO and pay-per-view ...
When I was uploading the picture of that Big Mac into this article, I was laughing about it because I’ve never actually seen a Big Mac that looks like that picture, have you? Richard just wrote about that a few days ago in an article called Advertised Fast Food Compared To The Real Deal. It had some hilarious pictures that show what fast food restaurants really serve, which looks a tad different. Of course, we gobble it up without really noticing it most of the time. ...
Watching what women do and say, and how that aligns to the needs of their business vs. their family, I was intrigued to discover we might have thought wrong. Small Businesses Are Not Better For Women Nell Merlino, founder of Take Your Daughter to Work Day, shared some very interesting data recently. “A lot of women believe the bigger the business, the less time for family,” Merlino said. “That’s not necessarily true.” Did that hit you like a ton of bricks? Why have we been thinking ...
Let me paint a picture for you. What do you think would happen in this situation? You have a beautiful bike with all the trimmings (bells, basket, lights, etc). You are riding it on the sidewalk in Soho (NYC), and you decide to chain it to a bike post while you go shopping. However, on this day, you never come back. What exactly do you think would happen to that bike? I love riding my bike all the time, and I live in a big city ...
