11 things you can do this Labor Day weekend to feel like you still rocked your summer

It happens every year. You make plans for “the best summer ever” in May, lounge around in June, party a little too hard in July & then BAM. August rolls around, and the Sunday of summer leaves you with regrets of the summer that passed you by & you didn’t take advantage of.

Here are 11 things you can do this Labor Day weekend that will make you feel like you still did summer right:

1. A water balloon fight. Childish? Maybe. But that’s the point. Summer is an ode to the school years when this was your freedom & running around chasing your friends with the thrill of getting hit with a water balloon? Sounds like summer to me.

2. Read a book outside in the park. Sure, nothing beats cozying up under the blankets on the couch in the fall with a good read, but an outdoor book sesh can’t be beat. Find a tree with lots of shade, pack a little snack (and maybe a bottle of Rose) and call it a day.

3. Go on a bike ride.  This may seem simple, but I would put money many of us still have our wheels collecting dust in the garage.

4. Grill a burger. Or better yet, host a BBQ. Nothing says summer like the smell of a full grill & a few charred weenies.

5. Get a pedicure. Your toes thirst to be seen! And truly, they’re kept hidden year-round until summer sandals are your staple. Those little piggies need to look their best.

6. Create a “Summer playlist”. Even if you don’t listen to it. Go through your recently played from the past few months (hello Old Town Road!) and combine them for the ultimate “Summer Jams” list. In a few months, you’ll be glad you did Even if you were lame all summer, these tunes will bring you back to the sunshine days.

7. Buy the perfect summer dress. Nothing says summer like twirling around in the warm sun and a flowing dress.

8. Post up poolside. Can’t make it to the Hamptons? Us either, girlfriend. But find a neighborhood pool or find a kiddie pool on clearance & relax your legs in the cool water.

9. Road trip to visit an old friend that moved away. If you have the financial means, make a spontaneous trip to visit your friend you’ve been meaning to visit. Summer always brings plans that end up getting canceled…don’t let this happen.

10. Turn off Netflix.  For real, how much of your summer months did you spend watching the Orange Is the New Black or seeing what all the Ozarks fuss was all about? Binging can wait until it gets cold outside.

11. Lighten up your hair. Even if the trend is to go “dark” for the fall with your locks; go against the norm & throw in some blonde highlights & feel like a summer beach bum.

 

 

9 Things Only Carelessly Naked People can Relate to

We all have those friends and family, who just don’t care about wearing clothes.

Maybe they are conceited and just like not having a shirt on. Maybe they just are so comfortable in their skin they don’t see a reason as to why they need clothes in the first place. They are the people, which embarrass you sometimes in public for carelessly not worrying about nudity. They have the mindset while we are all different, we have all seen ourselves naked so why is it a big deal if other people see us?

 

You never sleep with clothes on 

Often times you have to lock your door, because people don’t like walking in on you as you sleep in only underwear. When you sleep without clothes on, you aren’t sweating, if ever you are cold there are blankets, there are no issues of clothes getting tangled in sheets. And if ever you are dating someone, they are the last to complain and accept you for who you are.

 

If clothes aren’t required, you aren’t wearing them 

Beach towns you find the most appealing; those places where signs say, “no shoes, no shirt, no problem.”

 

Changing in front of people doesn’t bother you 

Whether you have friends of the opposite sex around or friends of the same sex, if you need to change it doesn’t faze you doing it in front of them. At first they were a little shocked by it, but then they enter your house almost expecting you to be half naked 75% of the time.

Casino Chic: What To Wear To A Casino

Looking to get casino chic? Going to a land-based casino for a weekend getaway or night out requires careful thought about an appropriate gambling budget, games to play and of course how to dress. Sure, you could arrive at the casino in shorts, tank top, and flip-flops, but where is the fun in that?

We have some tips for dressing up for your next night out for fun and gambling to the casino.

Relaxed Casino Concepts

Many people going to Las Vegas will wear sandals, shorts, and t-shirts or tank tops. There is nothing wrong with a maxi dress with a denim jacket overlay or the casual khaki style—if you are a regular casino goer. Those with money or who want to play the big tables, and belong there, might want to look the part.

Novelty Casino Chic

The novelty casino style is about choosing a style that fits your personality. You will stand out. You might dress like a flapper from the 20s or a Las Vegas dancer. You are looking to make a statement with how you dress, whether you are a regular person or a whale. Men can also choose a novelty style that fits their personality, such as black leather pants and a Chippendale look.

Sophisticated Casino Dress

A better style is the sophisticated appearance. It shows you have money; you know what you are doing, and you want to be taken seriously by the casino. Sophisticated styles are more like a business casual to full business.

Men should choose trousers, with a dress shirt, and dress coat. A tie is optional. It is a classy look that says you are there to be serious, enjoy the casino, and you are not going for the overly dressy tuxedo.

Women have a choice between slacks and skirts, even a dress, will fit the sophisticated business style. You can be a little flashy with your outfit by going with a skin tight red or black dress. But you may also prefer blue or yellow. Choose a color that is going to match your complexion and that appeals to you. Bold colors or more traditional black is sophisticated and comfortable. Adorn yourself with the perfect shoes and jewelry.

Glitz and Glam Chic

Vegas, Monte Carlo, Canada and Monaco are just four of the many land-based casinos where going glitzy and glamming into a casino is perfectly fine. Women might choose sequins or extremely bold colors such as gold or silver. Whether you wear pants, skirts, or dresses, you want to choose something that will get you noticed. You don’t have to go for the red-carpet price, but you do want to prove you can afford the upper-class stores, by choosing designer outfits and shoes. Peep-toe heels are one of the perfect choices for the glitz and glam look.

Men—this is the time for the tuxedo or similar designer suit will fit right in. You can go a little bold with a non-traditional color, perhaps a blue suit versus grey or black, or just dress it up with something other than a white shirt.

Casino Chic

Women make certain you go all out with whatever style of casino chic you love most. Your hair, makeup, and nails should be completely done, whether you do it yourself or go to a salon before you hit the casino. For fun consider choosing jewelry with a lucky theme or a casino-based theme.

A few other pointers include choosing your outfit for the time of day. You can always change as the night progresses or you consider taking in an evening show. The morning and mid-afternoon dress should be more casual than your evening attire. You also want to choose footwear that is comfortable for the types of games you will play. Some of the table games are not going to have seats, like roulette, so higher heels may be uncomfortable if you intend on spending several hours at the tables.

Here’s A Breakdown Of How To Play ‘True American’ From ‘New Girl’

If you’re a fan of the TV show New Girl, you know that the game “True American” is the most fun you can possibly have with your friends and a lot of booze. The game, which is shown throughout the series, is a mix of U.S. history, drinking, and fun. If you have a pretty big apartment/home, and you’re trying to mix it up with your friends, here’s a breakdown on how to play one of the best drinking games known to mankind.

1. You need at least 4 people.

You need 4 or more people to play the game. You make teams of at least 2, therefore you need 4 people to make the game work. Getting more players involved makes the game more fun.

To make teams, everyone holds up a number on their forehead with their fingers, between 1-5. The people who have the same numbers on their head are on the same team. If you don’t have the same numbers, repeat until you do.

2. You need a flat table/surface for the castle.

You need to find a center, flat piece to be the castle. This will be placed in the center of the room and the game really revolves around it. You put a bottle of liquor (of your choice) in the center of the table, and line up the beers around it like a giant X. This is the “king” and his “pawns.”

3. Set up the “game board.”

The floor is lava in this game, so you’ll need to set up spaces to stand on throughout the game. It’s like “Candy Land,” where you move spaces. The spaces surround the castle. You want to make at least 5-8 spaces on each side of the castle. Only 4 spaces touch the castle itself—therefore, if you land on this space, you get to take a beer.

4. After making teams, shotgun.

The game begins with a shotgun tipoff, so all players need a beer. The person who wins the shotgun (finishes first) screams “1, 2, 3 JFK!” The rest of the players yell “FDR.” Everyone grabs one beer and retreats to a space of their choice, excluding the four touching the castle.

The person who wins the shotgun also goes first. He/she moves one space—clockwise—towards the castle. Every turn, players decide on minigames they want to play. A minigame is played every turn.

5. Minigames.

There are three different minigames you can play.

1. The player who’s up screams “1, 2, 3” and everyone puts a number on their forehead (like you did when choosing teams). The player who picks a number that no one else has picked can move forward one space.

2. The player who’s up begins reciting a famous American quote from a famous person in history. The player who finishes this quote correctly can move forward two spaces.

3. The player who’s up names two famous American people, places, or things. The player who can name what all have in common can move forward three spaces.

6. Winning.

The game is played until a) all the pawn beers are finished and a player reaches the castle to sip from the “king’s cup.” The game is played until there are no pawn beers left. Players in the game must have a beer in hand at all times. Additionally, the floor is lava, so you cannot fall of your space.

Players who do not have a beer or fall into lava will be disqualified but can get back in the game if they shotgun a beer.

So suit up, grab some beers and a bunch of friends—and shotgun!

Ariana Grande Dragged Fans To The Depths Of Hell For Saying Justin Bieber Was Lip-Syncing During Their Coachella Performance

Recently, Ariana Grande headlined two weekends in a row of the Coachella Music Festival in Coachella, California. The Grammy-Award-Winning singer produced not one, but two albums in less than a year that broke records, topped charts, and truly won over millions around the world.

During the second leg of Coachella, Grande decided to invite a friendly face on stage whom she has known for years—having shared the same manager for the majority of her professional career; Justin Bieber.

The moment was something fans have been waiting for—as Bieber hasn’t performed publicly and live for over 2 years. However, people on Twitter began pointing out that Bieber was “clearly” lip-syncing overhis track, “Sorry.”

https://twitter.com/poorcorn/status/1120404514400624640

After people online kept talking about it, E!’s Nightly Pop host Morgan Stewart brought it up on national television. Stewart and her co-hosts basically ripped Bieber apart.

https://twitter.com/godisagrnde/status/1121095590144770048

Bieber himself got on Twitter and decided to reach out to Stewart, dragging her for bullying him after he took a 2-year hiatus.

Ariana Grande decided to stand up for herfriend and give everyone online the facts of the performance—like, it was decided literally 10 minutes before it happened.

She also added:

Circling back. Your fans, friends, and the world is thrilled to have you back. Everyone was so happy to see you smile like that. No one will ever understand how it feels to be you, but it’s not their job to. Take care. Make music. You are loved. P.S. everyone in that video will be streaming. I don’t like when people try to ruin beautiful moments for my friends.”

Justin Bieber’s wife, Hailey Baldwin, was happy to see Grande supporting him.

People online were happy to see both Bieber, Grande, and Baldwin supporting each other—as both have gone through rough times in the public eye.

33 People Who Shouldn’t Have Skipped English Class In 2018

Look, not everyone is great at spelling. It’s not something we’re born knowing, we have to learn it. That’s the whole point of English class. You might never find yourself in a situation where you need to know the difference between imply and infer to make it through your life, but you will need to know how to spell.

That’s rough for people who are really lost in the weeds when it comes to spelling. These days, especially, because everyone is always texting and emailing, so it’s crucial to have a good idea of how to spell. Sometimes, not even autocorrect can help you.

Many times it’s not even the spelling, exactly, that’s the problem—it’s that people mishear words or morph them into other words. I had a roommate once who thought that idolizing someone was putting them on a “pedestool.” The correct word is, of course, pedestal, like the thing that statues are placed on for display in museums. But to my roommate, pedestool made sense because a stool is a thing people stand on.

What I’m saying is, we’re not here to judge or shame people who can’t spell. We’re just here to laugh at them.

Whether you’ve got a big trip planned or if you just plan on spending time lying around in a lounge chair, there’s no denying that summer’s a pretty magical time of year. When we were kids, it meant the end of school and the start of three months of fun, fun, and more fun.
