Tom Cruise is really 6'5, 240. There are a lot of misconceptions about him.

I'm assuming it isn't: Send in more money.

I can just imagine the conversation after I tell the wife that I found this "weird trick" on the internet to pay off our mortgage faster and that it would only cost a measly 10 low monthly payments of $19.99 to find out what it is.

It would start out like this, "Honey, you're an idiot and I want a divorce..."

I'm finding that online publications are using old articles as clickbait. Slate is notorious for this. They stick a story that's either about a celebrity (Julia Louis-Dreyfus has a Meltdown) or with a controversial subject matter (Why I Don't Date American Women) from a year or more ago in the "More From Salon" section at the bottom of articles. Which is weird because you start reading it, realize that it's way old news, and wonder why the fuck they would suggest you read that old bullshit?

Is there something about the Met Gala that all of a sudden is some kind of must-see thing on the internet? Seeing all this clickbait about "candid shots" and "most outrageous outfits" from that event.

I'd never even heard of that party until Beyoncé's sister beat up Jay-Z for stealing all of Biggie's rhymes . . . or something like that.
