Source: Taco Bell This morning, December 16th, Taco Bell put out an official press release to hype up the return of their flagship specialty item, the Nacho Fries. The item typically cycles through the fast food restaurant’s limited-time menu twice a year and this new release doesn’t show any major differences. What is different, however, is the world around the Nacho Fries. The United States is a powder keg of civil unrest and political homerism that seems to be waiting for any spark to light the fuse. It makes economists like myself stop to wonder if the return of Taco…

As the leaves begin to change and Halloween approaches, one upstate New York summer camp is just now preparing to open for its summer season.  Camp Crystal Lake, known for its illustrious woodline and remarkably consistent murderous rampages, defies all logic once again by waiting until this week to bring in the counselors who will watch over the campers expected to arrive later in the month.  While it seems eccentric or even nonsensical, it isn’t that out of the ordinary for the long-running and long-closing summer camp. In fact, the camp has found that it consistently draws the biggest crowd…

With the United States still being in the midst of a pandemic, state officials across most of the country have recommended staying home or flat-out banned the act of trick-or-treating this Halloween. As an adult, I am, of course, perfectly fine with that. For those who may not know, trick-or-treating is the childish act of walking door-to-door in the hopes of receiving free candy. Being a 26-year-old, I am in no way effected by its cancellation. Sure, it is the one night of the year in which delicious off-brand chocolate or – if you know where to look – mini…

1. Forrest Gump (1994) In a movie where the main character basically sees it all, there was still one element that was ultimately cut out. Early cuts of the film had Forrest spending a scene of the movie telling his story to Gizmo. This decision was made in an effort to capitalize on Gremlins’ already established audience, as the original draft of the script called for the scene to star an octopus. 2. Terminator (1984) Gremlins made waves when it came out in 1984, but the creatures almost made their feature-film debut in another movie from that year. The film…

If you are sick and tired of feeling sick and tired, then we have the perfect low-effort remedy! The Food and Drug Administration has just released a study recommending that Americans think about exactly five to seven clams a day. The study states that by simply thinking about clams, and the answerless questions they bring, people work their brains harder, keeping them more prepared for complex thinking. Are they alive? Can they bite? Are they okay to eat? Wait, am I thinking about oysters? These are just some of the complex questions that come to mind when thinking about clams…

Everyone knows the disappointment of eating all the meat in a Chipotle burrito in the first two bites. There’s nothing worse than having somewhere between seven to twelve bites left of just lettuce, pico de gallo, black (or pinto) beans, and cilantro lime rice. Well, worry no longer, because we’ve got you covered with this surefire way to make sure you get double the meat in your burrito for only $1.50 more than regular price. While waiting in line for your turn to order, say, “Man, I’m hungry and just not sure the regular allotment of meat in these burritos…

I recently found myself looking for a bit of frightful fun. Typically, when I get in one of these “full moods” (that’s a little werewolf humor) I just watch my favorite horror movie, Hocus Pocus. Most of the time I even get through all of it. However, this time, I was ready to get really spooked. I decided to finally do it. To read the scariest adult book series ever written. Goosebumps. Now I know what you’re thinking, “there are so many, how did you pick one?” Well here’s how. I didn’t pick one, I picked five… the five scariest!…
