There is apparently some government investigation called Operation Ghostbusters. I don’t know much about it, but I do know that the name has now taken on a whole new life in my head. I was lying on an ultrasound table recently, when the technician’s Spotify playlist decided to […]
Somewhere in Florida, a woman was heading home from a Halloween party at 4 a.m. dressed as a banana when she witnessed a car crash. Naturally, she did the responsible thing and called the police. And just like that, she became an internet sensation. A banana hero, if […]
