I never knew that there was an actual unit of measurement for the growth of men’s beards and that there are actual people out there who are beard growth experts.

This is more for the ladies than it is for the menfolk, so ladies…here are 50 different types of friends you might have.
Some of these traits may overlap into the same person. I will admit, I am usually the party animal in my group of friends. And also, if I’ve had a little too much tequila, maybe the ghetto friend. But who here is really surprised by this? YEAH, STRIP CLUBS!
This one goes out to all the grammar nerds and linguaphiles in the world. And also to all the people who seem to get these wrong on a daily basis.
English teachers of the world, you are all either collectively clapping your hands and nodding vigorously in agreement while yelling, “YES, THANK YOU!” or this hurting you that people still don’t understand these concepts. Either way, you’re welcome and I’m sorry.
There are some strange laws still in existence in the US.
Also, Florida. Your entire state should be in custody. Or at least Miami.
See that picture? That’s me, bartending. No, I didn’t actually drink those 40s on the job, because that would have been completely illegal. But I do like to have fun behind the bar. You know who doesn’t like to have fun behind the bar? Whatever bartenders that Buzzfeed found to interview for their list article “11 Things Your Bartender Won’t Tell You.” Normally, I wouldn’t really say anything, but after reading it, I decided maybe some personal insight and counterpoints were necessary, so that the general public wouldn’t think that all bartenders are raging douchebags. So, you can skip over this if you want to because it’s a long read, but I’m going to respond point by point to what some of these bartenders are saying.
I know. There is nothing more infuriating than Facebook trends. Some of you have probably noticed an influx of this symbol invading the pages of your social networks, but I’m here to tell you to, quite frankly, deal with it.
Of course, posting a picture like this or changing a profile picture isn’t going to do anything in terms of changing the Supreme Court’s mind when it comes to marriage equality. They aren’t going to determine the unconstitutionality of banning gay marriage based on the fact that not enough people changed their picture to support it.
But what this picture does show is that there is support and that, as a society, we can show that unity whether gay or straight. So, you don’t have to change your picture (I didn’t because, quite frankly, I look awesome in my picture) but don’t give anyone else any shit for changing theirs. And, if a plain picture just isn’t for you, then there’s always these snappy looking alternatives. I especially like the last one. Hit the jump to see the rest.
Today would have been Fred Rogers’ 85th birthday. To celebrate this day, Mental Floss’ John Green brings you 35 facts that you probably didn’t know about your favorite neighbor.
