A man in Oklahoma built a house on a pond that has a fishing hole in the living room.

Paul Phillips, a contractor in the Skiatook, Oklahoma area has recently put his (and my) dream home up for sale. Why? Because he wants to build a bigger one. Paul bought this land, dug a pond, stocked it with slam packed with crappie and catfish then built a house right on top of that pond. This house has three bedrooms and three bathrooms and of course, a fishing hole in the floor of the living room. I think I might need to move to Oklahoma and have this.

This is just a brief list of things you should NEVER Google. They are mostly things that are a bit disgusting, some of which we filtered out because they’re just too graphic. Either way, you should be warned that if you do choose to search for the things on the below list, they may not have pleasant results. I did my best to describe them. I also included less graphic images so not to gross you out!

Fournier

Orlando Magic NBA player Evan Fournier’s nickname is “Never Google” and there’s a reason. His last name, which is an old French word for “Boulanger” (or “Breadmaker”), is also the name of a type of gangrene that affects the genitalia. You’ve been warned.

Krokodil

The street name for Desomorphine, a morphine derivative with powerful opioid effects, which has been used as a substitute for Heroin in Russia and Ukraine. The side effects of the often-illegally produced drugs include toxic substances which can “cook” the skin, or cause large scale tissue infection or damage in the injected area. It’s become known as a flesh-eating drug.

Your Favorite Food

You’ll only get hungry. See, they’re not all about flesh-eating this and that.

Mouth Larva

I was looking for ‘moth larva’ and instead ran into this beastie. We can confirm, it’s exactly what you’d expect and you shouldn’t go there.

Google

Haven’t you heard that 100% true thing about the infinite loop and the world ending? Also, chances are your URL field is also a search bar – save yourself some time and search for what you’re looking for (if not, change your default search engine to one you want).

Calculus Bridge

It’s not a really hard maths problem. It’s hardened plaque across the teeth – a big old chunk of it. Generally it has to be chipped away by a dentist. It’s not that pretty.

Your E-Mail Address

It can be illuminating to see what you’re linked to online, and sometimes terrifying. Reddit users reported sold accounts, spam, password leaks, the lot – in fact, it’s probably safest to search to double check, even if you don’t like what you find. A recommended tool to find if you’ve been compromised in a data breach is “haveibeen pwned.com”, which may let you know.

Harlequin Ichthyosis

It’s a severe genetic disease in which, at birth, a child’s skin is encased in thick white plates of skin, separated by deep cracks. This has many complications – because there are cracks in the skin the newborns are more susceptible to infection and constant care is required to protect and moisturise the skin. The disease used to be considered fatal. But with improved neonatal care and early introduction of oral retinoids, the number of survivors is increasing.

Your Symptoms

If you think you are seriously ill, you should go see a doctor.

Some sort of “sea creature” has washed up on a beach and no-one knows what the heck it is…? What remains of the carcass was found in Indonesia’s central Maluku province and, to be honest, I have absolutely no idea what this could be either. Locals and authorities are just as confused as they try and figure out wtf it can be.

People started sharing pictures of the carcass (which was still bleeding) on Wednesday. The 50ft-long beast was initially believed to be a boat by locals before they realized it was some kind of creature.

The whole scene prompted a military response as troops were called in to help clear it all away, reports the Sun.

There were a few local reports that claimed fishermen were saying that it was a giant squid. The thing is, giant squids are thought to only grow up to 43ft for females and 33ft for males.

However, a coordinator of Indonesia’s Marine and Coastal Resources Management said it was likely to be a whale. A whale?! That thing doesn’t look anything like a whale. I’m calling it as an alien.

Some samples have been taken of the creature and sent off to a laboratory to attempt to identify the species so hopefully it won’t be too long until this mystery is solved.

This apartment building only has a few washers and dryers in the laundry room. A couple took up all of the washers, so when this woman came in, she formulated her revenge immediately. (Thanks Kerri for submitting this to Stuff Happens!)

So I live in an apartment building that has a shared laundry in the basement. There are 10 washers and 10 dryers. I had a single load of laundry to do before a flight tomorrow morning. So I headed downstairs with my basket.

Two machines are running when I get down there. There’s also a single couple taking up EIGHT washers to sort their laundry. I asked politely if they could divide one of them up into 1/7ths and put it in with their others so I can use a machine. They decline (apparently they have a system…) and tell me to wait however long it takes for the next person to claim their stuff to get the next machine.

At this point I realize it’s time to get petty. I wait until they leave and then go hit the pause button on all of their machines. I need to stall. Then I wait for the next washer to free up. I transfer this innocent bystanders ratty old towels immediately, pay for their dryer and leave a note to which dryer it’s in. Then I start my washer, and I hit “run” on my machine. I wait a few more minutes, and then resume all of their washers.

They come back down in the 40mins it takes to run and are mildly confused by why their machines are taking longer than usual. They suspect no foul play. By this point my washer is finishing up, so I grab a laundry cart and empty it out. I then proceed to take my laundry and divide it into 8 different dryers (like 2 shirts and a couple socks per dryer lop and set them all running, one by one, as they watch in bitter disbelief.

And then I settle down in a chair to watch my $12.50 of petty revenge spin.

For more awesomeness, read what this Mom did when she got a call from her daughters school.

When I was a kid, I would watch “Married with Children” until I reached a catatonic state. I was obsessed. But today – only 20 years later – it seems like characters like Al Bundy and company would be kicked off the air after making one of their many politically incorrect jokes.

Would Al Bundy survive today’s scandal-obsessed world? Are you insane? Here are a few reasons he’d be booted faster than you can say “No Ma’am.”

1. Fat-shaming.

2. General misogyny.

3. Joking about suicide.

4. Promoting the ‘dumb blonde’ stereotype.

5. Cultural insensitivity.

6. More fat-shaming.

7. Smoking on TV. (What about the children?)

8. Joking about killing your family.

9. Spousal abuse.

10. Hating on feminists.

11. Teaching kids that violence is the answer.

12. Frequently bashing the French.

13. Treating women like objects.

14. Gross displays of male comfortability.

15. Nipples.

16. And finally…fat-shaming.

Eye shadow in your hair? How about beer? And Pepto Bismol on your face?

These may sound like something you’d do after a few glasses of wine, but they’re actual beauty hacks! And do you know what’s better? They actually work!  Yes — using charcoal on your toothbrush or eyeliner on your eyelash curler are both amazing ways to change your beauty routine! These 12 tips may sound weird, but they work. How many will you try?

1. Root Fix

Using a q-tip or brush, dab some eye shadow to your exposed roots for a quick on-the-go fix when you haven’t had time to dye your hair yet.

2. Dryer Sheets

Don’t have a dryer? You should be buying dryer sheets anyway for your hair! To secure flyaways, just rub a sheet on your hair and style how you want!

3. Oh, Baby!

For long, full lashes, apply a layer of your favorite mascara, then coat your lashes in baby powder. Once every lash is coated, apply a second coat of mascara. When you’re finished, you’ll have gorgeous lashes!

4. Hot and Cold

Heating up your eyeliner will make it glide on like liquid. Freezing it will help keep bits from flaking as you apply it.

5. Think Pink!

Applying a mask of Pepto Bismol to your face gives you tighter skin and a nice glow!

6. Beer Me!

Other than the fact that your hair might smell a little bit like beer, this wonderful alcoholic beverage strips away all the buildup in your hair and leaves it super soft. Just massage a cup of beer into your damp, clean hair, leave it for five minutes, then rinse!

7. Olive You!

Want to remove matte lipstick and smudge-proof eyeliner? Just massage olive oil over your lips and lids!

8. Two in One

Draw some eyeliner on your eyelash curler and dress your eyes at the same time as you curl your lashes!

9. Alternative Solution

If you run out of shaving gel, grab your conditioner! It works in the same way to keep that harsh razor from scratching your skin!

10. Berry Good!

Grab some strawberries and rub them on your teeth before brushing. The acid breaks down stains and gives you a whiter smile!

Most twenty-somethings have had their fair share of (terrible) experiences with Fireball whisky, the spicy, eye-watering elixir of the devil. However, when we think of fireball, we don’t normally think about it being sipped and slurped by people over the age of 30 — or 60, for that matter.

In the video below, a group of adorable grandmothers try Fireball for the first time. Though many of them enjoy a nip or two from time to time, they’ve never even heard about the belly-warming capabilities of the millennial’s favorite drink. If you’ve ever had Fireball before, you can imagine what happens when these women try it for the very first time.

The results may have you buying a bottle for your own grandmother.
