Parody social media accounts are one way to cast irony on the narcissism—and often-fraudulent nature—of social interactions on the interweb. As Karley Sciortino of Slutever recently wrote, “Social media is probably ruining my life, but at this point, without it, it’s almost like I wouldn’t have a life.” All the same, parody accounts can “ruin

It’s the ad campaign mugshot that’s been seen by millions. Thirty-year-old Jeremy Meeks sent the online community into a heated tizzy when authorities in Stockton, California posted his mugshot on social media late last week.

The last time Lindsay Lohan received widespread acclaim for her acting was in 2004’s Mean Girls. Subsequent roles in Georgia Rule, Labor Pains, Liz & Dick, and The Canyons could not serve to buoy her once sky-high career back to the glory days. Her struggles with sobriety have long been public discourse, but during Jeremy Scott’s Moschino menswear

Every year about an hour outside of Nashville, Tennessee in the United States, a crowd of just under 100,000 people pack onto a 700-acre farm in the reliably-sweltering heat of the South for Bonnaroo Art And Music Festival.

Poor Ronnie. For starts, Cristiano Ronaldo’s team faced a 4-0 loss in the Portugal VS. Germany game during the World Cup in Brazil on Monday. Adding literal globs of insult to injury was Germany’s hygienically inept coach, Joachim Low, who sopped the alcoves of his nostrils before shaking hands with the one of the most expensive football players

It’s hard to believe that it’s been 22 years since the very first text message —a seasonal “Merry Christmas”—was sent. Today, American smartphone owners aged 18 to 24 send an average of 67 texts on a daily basis. But what about Emojis? They first appeared on Japanese cell phones in the early 1990’s. By May 1997,
