Story 1: Here Are the New Holiday Traditions People Are Creating This Year
As much as we all wish things were back to normal by now, they aren’t. And with the holiday season officially starting this week . . . well, it’ll just have to look a little different.
A new survey asked people if they’re creating any NEW traditions this year because of the circumstances. Here are the top five answers . . .
- Dropping off surprise presents at people’s houses.
- Doing Zoom meals with extended family.
- Having a day where everyone disconnects from all their devices.
- Making homemade decorations.
- Baking a specific recipe as a family.
The survey also found there is at least SOME bright side to not being able to see so many people in person for the holidays. 45% of people are looking forward to NOT having to answer a bunch of personal questions.
Story 2: Here’s the Most Popular Thanksgiving Pie in Every State
A new study found the most popular Thanksgiving pie in every state. And this is such a landslide that no amount of press conferences at landscaping companies next to sex toy shops could make people question it.
The jobs website Zippia analyzed Google Trends data from last November to figure out what pies people in every state were baking or buying the most.
And this isn’t surprising . . . but pumpkin pie won 42 out of the 50 states.
Pecan won five states, all in the South. Apple pie won the other three states, all in the Northeast.
There were two other pies that saw a lot of searches but not enough to win any state . . . those are sweet potato pie and cream pie.
Nebraska . . . pumpkin.

Story 3: A Man Goes to the Doctor for Depression Over His Wife’s Affair . . . Turns Out the Affair Was with the Doctor
Here’s something that feels like it could ONLY happen in a movie, but it actually happened to some poor guy in real life.
A 47-year-old guy named Peirson Tone from Bend, Oregon was depressed a few years ago when his marriage fell apart because his wife had an affair.
So he went to the family doctor, a guy named Ronald Rosen, to get both counseling and a prescription for his depression.
But after the appointment, he found out who his wife had the affair with. And yeah, you got it: It was with Ronald.
So Peirson just sued Ronald for $2.9 million for professional negligence.

The Moore Yooou Knoooow: Random Facts to Feed Your Brain!
