Story 1: You Can Have Days Where You Eat Insane Amounts of Food Without Causing Health Problems . . . Or Gaining Lots of Weight
Here’s some good news for everyone who likes to have EPIC CHEAT DAYS where you eat a dozen donuts or an entire pizza, or both.
A new study out of England found you can eat an INSANE amount of calories once in a while and it won’t cause you long-term health problems . . . or make you gain lots of weight.
Quote, “Our findings show the body actually copes remarkably well when faced with a massive and sudden calorie excess. Healthy humans can eat twice as much as ‘full’ and deal effectively with this huge initial energy surplus.”
They even found our bodies do a pretty good job handling all of the extra sugar and fat and using it efficiently.
BUT . . . that magic stops working if you start going food crazy too often. Quote, “Overeating . . . adds more stored energy to our bodies in the form of fat, which can culminate in obesity if you overeat day after day.”
Story 2: Tinder Might Let You Jump to the Top of Everyone’s Feed for $18 a Month
Tinder might start making it easier for people to essentially BUY more dates. Or at least up their chances. Someone in England accidentally accessed a page offering a new PLATINUM subscription. And it has two new features.
One would let you message people before you’ve matched with them by attaching notes to “Super Likes” you send out. And the other is called “Prioritized Likes,” where you’d jump to the top of people’s feeds. So anyone you “liked” would see you before they saw any non-Platinum members.
Tinder hasn’t confirmed or denied it. But the person who got access took a screenshot. It looks like it would cost $18 a month, or $8 if you do a yearly subscription.
Story 3: A Guy Getting Arrested for Cartwheeling in the Street Tries a Cartwheel Escape from the Cops
Cartwheels are not the ninja move this guy thinks they are.
The cops in Orlando, Florida got a call last week about a 40-year-old guy named Gianfranco Fernandez who was in the road blocking traffic . . . by doing cartwheels.
When the cops came, they tried to arrest him, but he managed to slip out of their hands.
And then . . . he tried to CARTWHEEL away from them.
Unfortunately for him, cartwheels aren’t actually a good escape move, and the cops easily detained him again and arrested him.
He’s been charged with resisting arrest and battery on a law enforcement officer.
