SECOND TEXT MESSAGE:
Hi, Morris. Saul here again. Sorry about the typo on my last text. I assume you figured it out and noticed that the darned Spell-Check had changed "wi-fi" to "wife." Technology, hey? It'll be the death of us. (H/T JJ Sefton)

I really did laugh out loud at the car salesman demonstration.

The following was sent to me by Orangeent. Maybe you Morons can answer his question. "You've got to see this! Is this a Moron gadget, or what?"

In tonight's Mental Illness review: We look at the lack of showering and deodorant usage. Plus the urge to spread it on the world wide web.

'I rarely shower and I don't wear deodorant but no one says I smell bad'

Addie Kirchner's personal hygiene routine has left people stunned, she only showered occasionally but she never wears deordorant despite admitting she smells "musty"

Musty? Must is the odor of a basement in August without a dehumidifier.

Arguing with airlines is usually a loosing proposition. Not in this instance.

Man rages as he's forced to give up plane seat for mum and baby - despite paying extra

A man has been left fuming after an airline told him they'd downgraded the plane seat he paid extra for - so that they could put a mum and baby in his original seat

There's a reason why you wear pants. After eating potato chips or other snacks you can use them as napkins.

Lays, the world’s bestselling potato chip brand, recently launched a limited edition miniature washing machine for oily fingertips.

Let’s face it, there are few things in the world more addictive than potato chips, but if there’s one thing everyone hates about them – apart from getting us fat – it’s the grease they leave on our fingertips. You need to have napkins on hand, lick your fingertips (yuck!), or get up from that comfortable sofa and wash up when you’re done stuffing your face. Well, thanks to a rather ingenious marketing campaign, potato chip enthusiasts now have another option – a miniature washing machine designed specifically to clean oily fingertips.

Is this Genius Award worthy? You be the judge.

A Rhode Island woman was shocked to find a half-naked man sleeping in the back of her SUV when she got to work. The Easton Police Department said that Amanda Kean drove about 30 miles from her home in Providence to her workplace in Easton, Massachusetts, on Sunday (August 21) night.

When she pulled into the parking lot, she noticed the man sleeping on the floor in the backseat and called 911.

The man was "partially clothed, with a pair of shorts around one leg and a shirt wrapped around one arm, leaving the rest of his body uncovered," Police Chief Keith Boone explained in a Facebook post.

He was feeling frisky on his wedding night. Genius Award Winner.

TAMPA, Fla. (TCD) -- A newlywed’s honeymoon took a turn after a man allegedly responded to an ad for sex and was arrested during a sting operation.

On Thursday, Aug. 25, the Hillsborough County Sheriff Chad Chronister spoke at a press conference and announced 176 people have been arrested since April in a wide-ranging undercover operation targeting those who "went looking to commit illegal acts of prostitution — some of them with minors."

During the press conference, Chronister mentioned a few cases that stuck out to him the most, including that of 34-year-old Paul Turovsky. Turovsky reportedly got married July 15 and was honeymooning in Tampa. That same day, while his new wife was asleep, he allegedly responded to an ad for sex that had been placed by an undercover agent.

Still in love "after first sight". Tonight's Feel Good Story of The Day.

A blind woman saw her husband for the first time after an operation restored her sight - and was shocked by how 'handsome' he was. Sophia Corah, 24, woke up with poor eyesight in May 2017 and quickly found her vision declining before she was declared legally blind in August 2017.

She was later diagnosed with a condition called keratoconus, where the cornea is unable to hold its round shape. But she didn't let her condition hold her back and she went off to university to study psychology, which is where she met Christian Corah, 25, and the pair instantly hit it off.
