This week’s Out-of-Touch Guide is a look at the widely different ways technology affects youth culture. On one end of the spectrum, constant connectedness to devices is leading to ridiculous trends like eating dog food and plastic candy wrappers. On the other, kids are using technology to help each other deal with…

I’m not surprised Paramount+ is launching a Grease TV series. I’m just surprised it hadn’t happened already. Glee premiered nearly 15 years ago; how has it taken this long to revive the OG story of peppy kids singing about their high school troubles?

As opposed to merely translating the stage show/movie to the small…

You likely have some wax paper hanging around your kitchen and maybe some parchment paper, too—but it’s important to remember they’re different things with different uses. The coating on wax paper is flammable, whereas parchment paper can be put in the oven, so you might think wax paper is more useless than its peer.…

How do you begin your work emails? Do you go with a simple “Hey?” Or are you into formal greetings like “Good afternoon?” or “Salutation, right, trusty, and well-beloved friend?” Or are you one of those absolute animals that just starts—with no foreplay at all? How about the closing? Are you one of those annoying,…

March Madness is beginning its final stretch, with the Elite 8 phase of the tournament starting on March 25. As teams get eliminated, the competition and intensity increases—but that’s not necessarily the case for ticket prices. If you live in some of these cities or are close enough to take a short trip, you don’t…

As HBO Max continues to transform into whatever inferior version of its former self it will eventually turn out to be, we can still enjoy the last remnants of an earlier era, as this month, a handful of returning shows drop new episodes...even if some of them have already been canceled.

TikTok is the app in the U.S. right now. There’s a good chance you use it yourself. (Perhaps you just broke away from a binge to come read this article.) But the app’s fate, in the U.S. at least, is uncertain: Lawmakers seem poised, if not ravenous, to either force a sale of the app to an American company, or to ban…

Hyundai and Kia are warning more than 567,000 SUV and minivan owners in the U.S. to park their vehicles outside because the tow hitch harnesses can catch fire while they are being driven or while they are parked, according to ABC News.

Bacon makes everything better. I’m certainly not the first to say it, but that salty, smoky, meat strip is hard to resist. It seems, however, that bacon has met its match. The banana, and its cousins, make everything better too. Luckily for us, they’re not enemies. In fact, when combined, they make the best snack I’ve…

I am waiting for a fish to show up on this webcam. It’s daytime here but evening in the Netherlands, so I may have missed the peak of fish activity that occurs at dusk. But the website tells me that eels and pike often show up at night, so I’m still hopeful. And when the fish start to show up, I will ring the doorbell…

What do you do when you feel undervalued, unsupported, and unhappy at work? One way to harness your anger is to send out a flurry of job applications—you don’t care where your resume is going, just so long as you’re doing something with all the anger you feel at your current gig.

Before any of you jabronis start commenting with “Just take off the pineapple,” or “That’s not real pizza,” please consider that this has all been said before, it’s very boring, and nobody cares. There is nothing wrong with putting fruit on pizza (tomato is a fruit), and adding tangy, sweet pineapple to a doughy,…

For all the fancy new features companies shove into their upgraded smartphones each year, the one thing everyone actually wants is better battery life. And yet, it’s an unpredictable spec: Some new phones have good battery life, while others require a charge after lunch. If you bought a smartphone in the last few…
