Questions to which the answer is no: ‘Hmm, should I send this picture of my penis over, even though I’ve never spoken to this person before?’

And why is it that suddenly some guys think that yes, girls will definitely prefer this picture of your balls over a nice meal out.

It’s bad enough that we’ve all resorted to Tinder as an easy way to hook up, let alone actually losing out on a possibly nice conversation, because you’ve spent the time you could’ve been typing out ‘you look beautiful’ to get the best-angled picture of your manhood.

Here are 12 reasons girls don’t appreciate your dick pics.

1. It makes us see you in a different light

Seriously, it completely changes our perception of you. Unless we’ve asked for it, an unsolicited dick pic is never okay. It makes us feel awkward and therefore makes us feel awkward around you. There’s no way we’ll be looking… Read the full story http://ift.tt/1NnwI9a October 19, 2015 at 02:48PM

We spend ages counting them. Sometimes we obsess about them. But what even is a calorie and how many of them do we really need?

That’s the question that the latest Ted-Ed video by Emma Bryce sets out to answer and it’s pretty enlightening.

First up, Emma explains a calorie is ‘a way of keeping track of the body’s energy budget.’ If you consume too many (because doughnuts) and don’t burn it off (damn you Netflix), then you’ll put on weight.

Yep, we know. You’ve heard it all before.

But what is a calorie actually? What does it signify? They explain that too – it’s ‘the amount of energy it would take to raise the temperature of 1kg of water by 1°C.

‘Everything we consume has a calorie count – a measure of how much energy the item stores in its chemical bonds,’ the explainer… Read the full story http://ift.tt/1V2IEPs July 15, 2015 at 02:48PM

It’s a sad day when your favourite ice cream is discontinued.

You might think that being a co-founder of one of the best-loved ice creams in the world might except you from this, but you would be wrong.

Today, in an exclusive interview for Metro.co.uk, Ben & Jerry’s co-founder Jerry Greenfield revealed his secret heartbreak.

He said: ‘Ben’s and my favouirite flavours aren’t being made.

It doesn’t matter if you’re Ben or Jerry, if it doesn’t sell it gets discontinued.’
