Critic score: 24/100 - User score: 8.0/10 - The New Guy is a story about a new guy. Just kidding. But also, that's what it is about. It's just that it's a little more complicated than that. Just a little. A geeky, lame dude played by DJ Qualls (no, he's not a real DJ) goes to a new school and decides to be a whole new person. He ends up becoming incredibly popular. I distinctly remember this movie making me want to move to a different high school so I could try this. I'd probably end up screwing it all up by just changing my name but not my attitude at all. My reputation would be ruined at two school.
What critics said: "Lame, derivative comedy." I feel like this is a review of every single one of my jokes.
Over the years, weve seen so many food trends come and go, such as ramen burgers, matcha, and spiked ice-cream. Nowadays, were seeing another trend making waves in the food industry. How many times today have you seen an Instagram photo of a scoop of black ice cream, or a cup of black yogurt, or hamburgers with black buns? Indeed, the charcoal trend has taken the world by storm.
So, what gives your latte that deep black shade? Activated charcoal, or coconut ash, is produced by heating coconut shells to insanely high temperatures until theyre burnt to a crisp. The ashes are then increased in size by steaming at high temperatures. Through this process, the ashes become a strong detoxifier, mostly because they become extra absorbent. This product may be purchased in pill form, and promises to alleviate hangovers, minimize the effects of food poisoning, and fight the visible signs of aging.
Activated charcoal is said to boost ones energy as a result of decreasing toxins in the body. However, no evidence proves that detoxifying can lead to increased energy. Also, while it can help cure a hangover, it doesnt necessarily remove alcohol from your blood. It is also said to aid in debloating your stomach because it cleanses your colon but again, this all anecdotal and isnt supported by scientific evidence as of yet. All we can say for sure is that it is a proven detoxifier.
