That’s a tall order!

We love a good promotion for overdoses. Move over venti and Trenta as this summer is all about the Coffee Bucket, and it’s spilling the tea (or latte)! These oversized, clear plastic tubs (think 1-1.5 litres of iced caffeinated goodness) have officially levelled up your coffee game. Instagram are flexing with #coffeebucket videos that are racking millions of views with one six second clip alone hit 4.3 lakh views!


The trend started brewing in indie shops in US like Wicked Southern Coffee (CT), Noctua Coffee (Missouri), and Last Drop Coffee each dishing out more than a litre’s worth of buckets loaded with four shots of espresso plus dessert-y flair like Blueberry Muffin, Tiramisu Latte, or Cinnamon Churro. People have had great responses to it just like the rest of us. “Just a little bucket of extra anxiety,” one laughed. 



Folks are sipping solo on these nearly pint-sized storms of caffeine and some are joking they’ll be “on the toilet for days.” But hey, #NoRegrets, right? Costing up to Rs 1000, it’s the perfect summer flex and major drain on your wallet for that gram-worthy buzz. But no worries! Whatever brews your day, huh?

In Lanjaron, Spain, you might want to literally lose the death tag, because it’s been technically illegal to die there since 1999! The mayor pulled the ultimate mic drop by saying, “It is hereby forbidden to die in Lanjaron,” because the cemetery was bursting at the crypt. Residents were asked to take care of their health, and hold off on dying until more graveyard space arrived. The sign at the cemetery should now be saying, “Do not pass.” With under 4000 souls (alive ones), the place now doubles as a spa town and a viral #NoDeathAllowed destination.

Who said that AI had no feelings? It so does!

People are trying to get absurd answers from AI, but this one guy took it too far by emotionally blackmailing AI to reveal the Windows 7 activation key. He told AI his favourite memory from his grandma was her reading Windows 7 keys to him. Even AI could not help but give in to the poor boys request of reciting the Windows 7 activation keys to make him relive the moments of his grandmother. Go scamming!

For all the aspiring architects, this man is your role model, or your competition. In Clifton Park, a truck driver named Joe Macken spent 21 years crafting a mind blowing, 50-by-30-ft balsa wood diorama of New York City featuring nearly one million miniature buildings across all five boroughs and beyond. The viral TikTok legend says “It was quite the process.” Timber-ific job!

ARMPIT odour for the win

Who would’ve thought that among the other things that men find attractive about women, their armpit odour would’ve been one of them? Apparently a new Japanese study found out that during ovulation even the armpit odour of a woman, attracts a man.

A great backyard story
