Tinder Boost

For those of you out there using Tinder to find love, or a place to stick it in for a little bit, Tinder is currently doing a small test on a new feature called Tinder Boost. And this is their attempt to further monetize their app.



The way it works, if you have Tinder, you use a boost, BOOM! In Tinder's own words, you get to ‘skip the line.’ You get to be the or one of the top profiles in your area for thirty minutes. And Tinder says that equates up to ten times your normal profile views.



And as far as how you get the boost, well, that's a micro transaction. If you get one it's seven dollars ninety nine cents. Five is six dollars twenty cents. And if you're worried about being forever alone, you can get ten for four dollars seventy cents.



And so, as of right now, it is currently being tested exclusively in Australia.

Disney Dishes Out Overwhelming Announcement About Another Lion King Movie

Disney has confirmed that they are going to “reimagine” the Lion King movie.



And it looks like their reimagining will involve live-action and Jon Favreau directing.



And Favreau really shouldn't surprise anyone because he directed the live-action Jungle Book.



And that movie's made just under one billion dollars worldwide so far.



So, I think Disney's looking at this and they're like, ‘Let's make another billion dollars; that'd be fun.’

And that's really it. I hope that it's great, I hope that it's fantastic and that it is very un-PAN-like.

Take This Very Viable Twitter Tip on How to Dig Out Old Tweets of Anyone in Particular—You Can Thank Me Later

It's super sad that a whole lot of techie tweeps, social media gurus and thoroughbred twitterholics find it dreadfully difficult digging up, or rather digging out old tweets of just about anybody on the twitterverse. Consequently, this (seemingly) paltry problem makes misinformation fly faster than the truth. Not to worry though, I'm here to put an end to the hitch.



To make sure you comprehend correctly why this is a hitch and how it makes misinformation fly faster than the truth, let me take you back to the first presidential debate—that went down on September 26—between Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton.



As these guys were both going for gold in the passive aggressive Olympics, Clinton hit Trump on climate change saying, “Donald thinks that climate change is a hoax perpetrated by the Chinese; I think it's real…” Of course Trump gave us the usual blah that he did not. The problem is, while he said he did not, he did.

There's a tweet from 2012—which (fun fact) I believe was the most retweeted thing that night—that says:



So, really his only defense there is ‘I didn't say it, I tweeted it—tweets don't count.’ To which I would say, ‘Anthony Weiner would disagree.’



But also, interestingly enough, Donald Trump's tweet turned into its own weird monster. If you didn't happen to see it, it seemed that hundreds of thousands of people were tweeting that Donald Trump's team was deleting his old tweets. A certain Juan Vidal posted a screenshot saying:



And tons of big names ran with it.

Sophia Bush,



Patton Oswalt,



Even MSNBC host, Chris Hayes, spread this misinformation, writing:



Turns out it was, Chris!

Although he wasn't the only journalist, senior writer for Newsweek, contributing editor for Vanity Fair, Kurt Eichenwald, saying:



Nah, but I think some other people might now.

It's just super sad (as I said before) and absolutely embarrassing. It's a perfect example of misinformation spreading faster than the truth. Would've been incredibly avoidable all you have to do is go to Twitter's Advanced Search…





…you type the name of the person whose tweets you want to look through…



…and type a word and/or phrase…



BOOM! You got it figured out.



So, ultimately, did he tweet this? Yes. Does it seem like he's denying it? Unless he's doing wordplay, yes. Did he delete the tweet? No.



And there you have it. You're most welcome.

The Ten Highest Paid Comedians on the Planet Right Now

Forbes recently released the top ten comedians of 2016.

From top to bottom, you've got:

10. John Bishop — $7 million



9. Russell Peters — $9 million



8. Gabriel Iglesias — $9.5 million



7. Jim Gaffigan — $12.5 million



6. Dave Chappelle — $13 million



5. Jeff Dunham — $13.5 million



In all candor, I haven't the foggiest idea how Jeff Dunham made $13.5 million! Apparently, Jeff Dunham's still huge.

Anywho…

4. Amy Schumer — $17 million



3. Terry Fator — $21 million



Do I need to become a ventriloquist? And I'm not hating, I've actually never seen him before, so I've got to check him out.

2. Jerry Seinfeld — $43.5 million



And number 1 at the top the king of comedy right now…

Mr. Kevin Hart with $87.5 million!!!



It's reported that over the past 12 months, Kevin Hart has performed at 100 venues! And not comedy clubs! Stadiums, arenas, we're talking Staples Center, Madison Square Garden! He's got the movies, the endorsements, he's doing it like nobody else!



And I'm not trying to say this in a hateful way; Kevin Hart is doing properly what Dane Cook tried to do back in the day.



And I know when you say you like a comedian that can be pretty polarizing people are like "Argh! That person sucks!" and all of that boils down to: I just respect Hart's hustle.

Penis Size

Dear Men,

Stop worrying about your penis size.

Love,
Science.

When it comes to body image issues for men, guess what's at the top of the list.


Yup, it's penis size. With height and weight coming in close behind.

A new study published in the Journal of Sexual Medicine found that thirty percent of men madly worry about their penis size; thirty five percent are happy, and the rest fall somewhere in-between.


Men who are older, gay, or bi, are more likely to be worried.

The scientists at Kings College, London, quantified penis anxiety with the help of a questionnaire called the BAPS, or Beliefs About Penis Size Scale.


Participants were given statements like 'I will be laughed at by a partner in a sexual situation.'…


…or 'I'll never feel just right.'…


…or 'I won't be able to be naked in front of other men.'…


…then they were asked to rate the statements from 1-5; strongly disagree to strongly agree.

The big takeaway from the results is that someone's penis anxiety has nothing to do with how big their penis actually is.

Plenty of guys who have penises below the average of 5½ inches — when erect, in case you were wondering — were totally happy and confident; while plenty of others well above the average were very insecure.


The most surprising outcome (for me) was the number of men who agreed that they were worried someone would be able to tell the size and shape of their penis — with their pants on!


Evidently, the anxiety goes way beyond sexual encounters and bleeds into everyday life. It's sort of alarming how common penis anxiety is, and just how deep the anxiety goes.

Amusingly, many of the men who have high anxiety were teased in the showers as young adults, or by a former partner.


So, are the sexual partners of these men as concerned as they are? The data's mixed, and also largely hetero.

One study found that women who are more likely to orgasm from the internal clitoris — otherwise known as a vaginal or G-spot orgasm — expressed more interest in their partner's penis size. But, even then, it still wasn't much concern. After 2.99 inches of flaccid penis, women cease to be impressed with any additional length. And that's good news because 3 inches flaccid is below the average.

Other studies found that it's the height-to-penis ratio that matters most, and not the length of the penis itself.


All this size business isn't actually about pleasure anyway. Seriously, a big penis is not a requirement for great sex. Essentially, to the best of my knowledge, vaginas and anuses are only sensitive in the first two to three inches. And people of all penis sizes all around the world have great sex. Even lesbians have great sex, and there's not even a penis in the vicinity. So, what's the deal?


For the most part, small penises aren't considered a "problem" because they can't pleasure their partner, they are a problem because they're not masculine, lol.

Small penis equals not masculine, equals not a real man, which equals not good enough. So no wonder their self-esteem is shot and they're plagued with anxiety, those poor freaking babes.

So lemme know your thoughts down below; have you ever worried about your penis size? If you don't have a penis, have you ever worried about your vagina size? Lemme know.

SEX

Sex is awesome, but also so terrifying!


Did you know that nineteen million new STIs occur every year?!?


And nearly half of Americans have not been tested.


Also, it's believed twenty five percent of Americans have an incurable STI.


And those who have STIs, OMG, one in four reportedly don't tell their partners!


So, the main point of this news is: Wrap that thing up!!! It may not feel as fantastic, but life is long, and it will feel even longer with burning and/or bumps and/or the other stuff.
