‘We’re such a deeply unserious country’: New York-Dublin ‘portal’ live art installation immediately creates chaos

Art brings people together. At least, that is what its greatest supporters like to say. Some of the best art thrives when we put aside our differences and realize that we can all be united behind a particular feeling that it brings, right?  Unfortunately for all those utopian artists out there, this is easier said …

Random Memes With Vaguely British Themes

I’m currently on the Americans vs. Europeans side of TikTok, and it is fascinating. Every time a European (usually a British person) tries to dunk on Americans for being stupid, the most well-spoken American on God’s green earth puts them in their place.  I’m not sitting around defending America all day, every day, but I …

Masshole Gets Roasted for Moving to Europe and Complaining About Capitalism

Ever heard of Paris syndrome? It’s the feeling of disappointment that some tourists get when they realize the city of love isn’t all it’s cracked up to be. The Eiffel Tower might be there, but so is all the trash on the ground, and the scammers trying to pinch those hard-earned euros.  It’s not the …

Funniest Tweets About a Head of Lettuce Outlasting Liz Truss as Prime Minister

Victims of the Fashion Police Share Funny Tales of Being Roasted

Fashion is funny. The other night at karaoke I saw two women dressed like a post-9/11 nightmare. Those child-proof bandanas you can tie. Their G-string thongs peeking from their heinously low-rise jeans. Baby-sized baby pink tees with Abercrombie logos. As a millennial who was denied all of these things by a strict mother, it brought …

Fresh Tweets From the Bird App, the Queen is Dead Edition (September 12, 2022)

Queen Elizabeth II lived a long life. There’s no denying that a ninety-six-year existence is impressive. A lot can be accomplished and experienced in that amount of time: marriage, parenthood, wars, imperialism, etc. But a ninety-six-year life also leads to a different sort of prolificness – the ability to be trending on Twitter for a …

Bloody Brilliant British Images

British people get a lot of slack from Americans online. They get roasted for their teeth, food, and accents in ways that nearly always come off as hacky. Like we get it, Brits put peas and beans on foods that are largely incomprehensible to the Yankee mind and stomach, but can we let it rest?  …

U.S. Citizens Fascinated By American Section At Irish Grocery Store

One of the marks of a fine grocery store is that it stocks many cuisines from around the world. The opportunity to broaden the palate is a privilege everyone should be able to experience, but sometimes it comes around in ways that you don’t expect. For @kennedytcooper, this came in the shape of one Irish …
