Palm Springs got KOTFM. SB got Barbenheimer.

How much wedding cake is wasted because it's served too late? Some guests are full, some guests already left…

For something that couples fuss over, wedding cake often goes neglected.

Wedding cake should be served during the cocktail hour, or, if there is no cocktail hour, then immediately following the ceremony. Make it a refreshment. I'd rather fill up with a considered cake than overcooked beef or fish.

Idea: A wedding reception where the centerpieces are actually cake.

Feels like the Seminole Tribe of Florida threw money at Messi before knowing what to do with him.


These line-ups only feed the perception that baseball is lame and white.

Idea: A similar music festival during NBA Summer League.


We are not talking enough about how Michael Rapaport was eliminated from the current season of The Masked Singer for singing "Sugar, We're Going Down" by Fall Out Boy and "Beverly Hills" by Weezer.

How has no one yet invented a Halloween candy ATM to combat an absentee "take one" bowl being cleaned out?

A portable ATM that dispenses one piece of candy at a time and can identify abusers via camera.

Halloween Prank Idea: A trick-or-treater enters a Starbucks and cleans out all the mobile orders waiting to be picked up.

Some Biden aides have long noted that he eats "like a child," with a food palette that skews beige.

His favorite dishes include peanut butter and jelly sandwiches, BLT's, pizza, cookies, spaghetti with butter and red sauce, and ice cream that he occasionally makes into a full sundae, according to current and former Biden aides.

On Friday while visiting D.C.'s Taqueria Habanero, Biden ordered churros and a chicken quesadilla.

A teetotaler, he often drinks orange Gatorade. [source]

Imagine becoming the head chef at the White House and having to serve McDonald's and well-done steak with ketchup to Trump, and buttered noodles and orange Gatorade to Biden.


2024: No films, no television shows, and Trump being re-elected.
