Let’s Discuss Adam Levine’s Furniture-Inspired Tank Top Instead Of The Boring Super Bowl

This year’s Super Bowl was submerged in a ton of controversy which wasn’t helped by the game itself. Only 16 points were scored between the Patriots and the Rams, breaking a historical record for…least amount of points scored in a Super Bowl. Suffice to say, a lot of people were bored. Beyond that, Maroon 5’s performance was criticized and some of the biggest commercials of the night were accused of leeching off pop culture and trying too hard to prove they were in on the joke. So let’s discuss Adam Levine’s furniture-inspired tank top instead of the boring Super Bowl.

Levine is a pop musician born from Los Angeles, best known as the lead singer of Maroon 5. He began his music career in the ’90s with the band Kara’s Flowers, which later transformed into Maroon 5, launching their breakthrough with the album “Songs About Jane” in 2002

A take is not controversial and is in fact the truth, is that Adam Levine’s tank top shares a strong similarity with different pieces of furniture, especially those that are 70’s inspired.

The original tweet was replied to by different users who also had their own curtains and chairs that could replace Levine’s tank top.

You know something’s off with your entire performance when your shirt, or lack thereof, becomes one of the most entertaining parts of the night.  FYI the shirt is named after tank suits, one-piece bathing suits of the 1920s worn in tanks or swimming pools. The upper garment is worn commonly by both men and women.

 

Jessica Biel Fell Asleep On Her Date Night With Justin Timberlake; Trump Thinks He Looks Too Orange On Television

Jessica Biel Fell Asleep on Her Date Night With Justin Timberlake

Justin Timberlake’s birthday is today (January 31), and to celebrate he and Jessica Biel went out last night in New York City. Things got off to quite the hilarious start, though. In perhaps the most relatable move ever, Biel fell asleep in the car before their date even began.

The “Mirrors” singer filmed the entire situation and posted it to Instagram. “Happy birthday to me, happy birthday to me,” he sings to himself quietly before panning to Biel, who couldn’t be bothered with anything besides her REM cycle. Wow. Me. Same.

Timberlake starts singing a little bit louder, and that’s what eventually wakes Biel up. “I’m just preparing for our big night out,” she says, laughing. “I’m just preparing!” Timberlake then chuckles to himself and gives some side eye. But the real shade should go to him for rustling Biel from her shut-eye. She looked so comfy.

Trump Thinks He Looks Too Orange On Television

The New York Times reports:

The official line from the White House, as with other matters surrounding the president’s physical health and appearance, is that Mr. Trump’s glow is the result of “good genes,” according to a senior administration official who would speak only on the condition of anonymity.

Certainly Mr. Trump, who has long taken antibiotics to treat rosacea, a condition that can make the skin appear rosy and ruddy, is attentive to how he looks on television. He has complained that his skin and hair appear too yellow or orange on the screen, according to one person familiar with his views.

As a result, events in the White House are now more dimly lit than in previous administrations. The president has also become a fan of natural light, like the setting of the White House Rose Garden, where Mr. Trump chose to announce the end of the government shutdown in 40-degree weather.

Matt LeBlanc says he only had $11 in his bank account before landing ‘Friends’

The 51-year-old sitcom star appeared on Thursday’s “Conan,” where he talked about how he almost didn’t make it in show business.

“I had, I think, I was down to $11,” he said of his pre-“Friends” bank account. “That’s holding out too long. Because even if I said at that point, ‘Alright, I’m going to go get a waiter job.’ By the time that $11 ran out, it would have been before the first paycheck on that job. I would have starved.”

“He said, ‘Before we take this, you might want to go get that tooth filed.’ I go, ‘What are you talking about?’ He said, ‘One tooth is a little longer than the other one. You should go get that filed,’” LeBlanc noted, saying he then went to a dentist when he didn’t have insurance.

The dentist told him it would cost $80 to file the tooth, so he refused.

“I go to the drug store and buy a three pack of emery boards. I’m very frugal,” he recalled. As for the photographer, “He goes, ‘They did a nice job!’”

The Royal Family Has A Strangely Large List Of These

They are one of the most fascinating families in the world…but this is a bit surprising.

They are unique, gracious, and hardworking…and the Royal family as a strangely large list of these.  That’s right, it turns out they are real people after all. Who would have thought? The family seems to be addicted to nicknames.

The Windsor family has a long tradition of nicknames, with a close source saying that they use these as a way of relieving tension since they’re not the best at confronting their feelings directly. Watch one episode of The Crown and you’ll see what they mean. “They can also be a rather childlike family. They love to play games and they give each other silly presents. I think it’s because they have to be so earnest in their public lives,” says a source.

Insiders claim that Kate Middleton calls Prince William “baldy” (she’s not the only one) while he calls her “Duchess of Doolittle.” Other nicknames for the Prince include”Willy the Wombat,” which originated when he was little and was created by his mother, Princess Dianne. The late Princess used to be called “Duch” by her close relatives, with her using this nickname to sign her Christmas cards.

Prince Harry is the royal who has the most nicknames, including “Ginger,” “Potter,” and “Flash,” which references the fictional character of Harry Flashman. Prince Harry’s friends appear to be very literate.

King Charles III and his wife, the Queen consort, are speculated to call each other “Fred” and “Gladys.” Although details on the backstory for these names are pretty scant, it is believed that they pulled these nicknames from characters on The Goon Show. Additionally Queen Camilla is Gaga, a name Prince Williams children started calling the her.

Other curious nicknames for royal family members include “Tugsten” for Meghan Markle, and “Lilibet” for the late Queen Elizabeth.

What Happened When NASA Gave Spiders Marijuana?

If spiders get high on marijuana, would the webs they weave become more intricate? More creative? More artistic? Or would it become a sloppy mess?

Believe it or not, scientists have been conducting studies on spiders and intoxicants dating back to 1948, when a German zoologist and a German pharmacologist teamed up to study the web-building abilities of arachnids.

RELATED: Stress Can Kill You: Marijuana Can Help Kill Stress

In 1995, NASA scientists attempted to replicate the German studies. The space agency used Araneus diadematus (your ordinary, run-of-the-mill house spiders) and supplied them with caffeine, amphetamines, marijuana and chloral hydrate.  Depending on the substance, the spiders spun unconventional webs.  “The more toxic the chemical,” wrote the researchers, “the more deformed a web looks in comparison with a normal web.”

Here are some of the findings:

  • On marijuana: According to NASA’s research, spiders given cannabis became easily sidetracked while web building and left their work unfinished.
  • On benzedrine: Spiders weaved their webs with increased energy but without attention to detail. Their webs appeared not to have been planned and were characterized by large gaps.
  • On caffeine: Spiders appeared to build webs at random and they grew impatient easily. The “hub” or “spoke” of the web was often missing.
  • On chloral hydrate (a sedative): Spiders gave up on building webs at a faster than the cannabis-consuming spiders.
  • On LSD: The webs were more geometrically regular and “more orderly” than ones built by sober spiders.

“When a spider’s central nervous system is drugged,” wrote Witt back in 1948, the insect faltered “as a man intoxicated by alcohol weaves an erratic course down the street.” LSD  was the lone exception to this rule.

RELATED: Marijuana Can Reverse The Aging Process In Humans

A spider’s skill at spinning its web is so obviously affected by the ups and downs of different drugs that scientists at NASA’s Marshall Space Flight Center in Alabama think spiders could replace other animals in testing the toxicity of chemicals.

Will this research help humans? Not really. But if there is one thing these studies demonstrate is that some substances can alter dexterity, planning and patience … no matter if you are a human or an arachnid.

Dogs Of Instagram: The Pomeranian

The Pomeranian is long considered a favorite of the toy breeds thanks to its fluffy double coat, always smily foxy-looking face, and vivacious energy. It has a big-dog personality inside its miniature build and makes an attentive watch dog for any family. For children who know the difference between a toy breed and a toy, the Pomeranian makes the perfect companion. They are easily trained and can become real tricksters and entertainers. While most common in orange and red, the Pom Pom comes in almost two dozen variations.

The Pom has seen history, too!  The breed originally weighed 20-30 lbs, but Queen Victoria bred them to their current size. Michelangelo had his pet Pomeranian by his side during the painting of the Sistine Chapel. Martin Luther had a Pomeranian named Belfarian often mentioned in his writing. And Mozart dedicated an aria to his beloved Pom, Pimperl.

Here, we find five of the most adorable Pomeranians of Instagram, beginning with the most adorable dog in the world, Boo. RIP.

5 Serious Workouts You Can Do With Your Partner

0

Finding the motivation to work out can be tough if you’re doing it alone, which is why we recommend finding a workout buddy to keep you in line. And who could be a better workout buddy than your significant other? It’s a great chance to spend some time with them that isn’t a normal date or family obligation, plus it’ll help you both stay fit.

Below are five examples of great workouts for couples.

Hook Squats

This one, as suggested by Fitness Magazine,  seems simple enough. Just stand back to back with your partner, squat down, and then slowly walk together in a circle before circling back. Three or so sets should work.

Pull & Release Seated Row

Muscle and Fitness recommends this exercise, which will target your back and biceps and only requires a towel and some floor space. First sit facing your partner with the bottoms of your feet toughing and your back straight. Each of you should be holding one end of the towel as you alternate pulling the towel towards you while the other slowly releases on a three-count, sort of like a game of seated tug of war.

Partner Push-ups

Assume the standard push-up position and have your partner stand over top of you. As you push up, your partner should apply slight—or significant, if you’re real strong—pressure for added resistance. Do as many as you can, then do two more sets of the same number.

Crisscross Crunches

Like partner push-ups, this one is a twist on a standard workout. Sit across from your partner in a regular sit-up position but intertwine your legs with each other. Then alternate standard crunches. To spice things up, maybe bet on who can do more in a row without stopping.

Jogging

Curtis MacNewton/Flicker

Even if you run at different speeds, having someone jog with you is a great way to push yourself. Instead of settling for two or three miles, now you might go four or five. Instead of a ten-minute mile, maybe you’ll run one in nine.

This Week’s Music: Orville Peck, Octo Octa And Theophilus London Release New Songs

This Week’s Music is a weekly column that discusses the weeks’ best, worst, and most interesting songs. We try to select songs of different artists and genres to keep things interesting and to please a variety of music fans.

On this first weekend of February, our column features Orville Peck’s latest single, Octo Octa’s long electronic experiment and Theophilus London’s contribution with Tame Impala. Check them out:

Country

Orville Peck – “Dead Of Night”

Peck’s music touches on a lot of interesting ideas, resulting in modern and complex country songs that feel unlike anything else out there. His thought provoking lyrics are backed by this awesome music video where he’s seen embodying a satin and lace cowboy, wearing a mask that makes him look like the BDSM version of Zorro. Orville Peck is a showman but he’s also got the voice and talent to back up his antics. He is one of the most revolutionary and exciting musicians out there.

Electronic

Octo Octa – “I Need You”

RELATED: This Week’s Music: Vampire Weekend, Jenny Lewis And Unperfect Release New Songs

Octo Octa’s new song is a fun and moody way to spend 10 minutes. “I Need You” functions perfectly in a dance club, in a yoga or a spinning class, finding the right balance between euphoria and contemplation. After the five minute mark, someone speaks, thanking their family and loved ones. These phrases and sounds repeat and reverberate themselves throughout the rest of the song, adding a strange layer of emotion that make this song a unique and emotional experience.

Hip Hop

Theophilus London – “Whiplash”

Theophilus London’s second contribution with Tame Impala’s Kevin Parker is just as funky and fun as you’d expect. The duo has worked together before, and their work continues to demonstrate Tame Impala’s seamless fit with the hip hop genre. Both artists have been busy with their independent careers, following the release of London’s mixtape “Nights B4 BeyBey” and the announcement of Tame Impala’s US tour dates.

This Dispensary Will Deliver Your Weed With Free Pizza This Super Bowl

This Super Bowl weekend, Americans are expected to order 12.5 million pizza for the big game. And if you order a weed delivery from one Washington dispensary, that pizza could be free by buying some bud.

The Mt. Hood Cannabis Company—which started when the owners traveled to Boulder, Colorado and were inspired “for a little adventure in our life”—wants to gift you a free cheese or pepperoni pizza with a purchase any half-ounce of cannabis.

“We were enjoying a joint and a slice of Mogul Mountain pizza while brainstorming marketing opportunities for our dispensary when it hit us. Let’s announce our new weed delivery with free pizza, and what better way to kick it off than over Super Bowl weekend,” said Devin Houston, Director of Marketing, in a press release.

“Our shop works really hard to engage the local business community and since their pizza was so inspirational, partnering with Mogul Mountain Pizza was a no brainer.”

The dispensary specializes in “craft flower, incredible edibles and concentrates” served by “kind educated budtenders.” If you’re near the area, why not stock up on some cannabis while getting a free pizza? As the dispensary stated in a press release, “Nothing goes better with the Super Bowl than pizza.”

Meme Of The Week: The Internet Still Finds Airpods Very Hilarious

Airpods can’t be left alone. In the past couple of weeks the headphones have been mocked by the internet, used for ASMR slime videos and as pieces for earrings. It’s safe to say Apple couldn’t have predicted the effect that their AirPods would have on all of us.

Despite the fact these devices were released over two years ago, the internet still finds new memes for them, photo-shopping them into photos and claiming that they’re for rich people.

RELATED: Genius Makes Earrings Out Of Airpods So They Won’t Get Lost

This week’s meme is kind of elaborate, demanding  you’re fluent in internet speak if you want to find the humor of the jokes. The meme consists of adding in AirPods into a pivotal scene in a movie or TV show and then having people warn the characters about their impending demise. Their warnings go unheard, and it’s all the AirPods’ fault. It’s all very dumb and great. Check out some of the best tweets:
