43. Rainy Days

You'd think you'd check the forecast before going out cruising in your convertible. "Hey, Dave. Don't you drive a convertible?" / "Why, yes. I do. Why do you ask?" / "Because it's pouring rain and I can see your car filled up like it's a swimming pool." It would suck if this driver couldn't use the cover and always had to drive like this. They just bring an umbrella with them whenever it rains, and their care always smells like your grandma's mildewy house. I don't know why I had to bring your grandma into this, but boom. I did it.

Are we sure this isn't a screenshot from The Office? I think Michael Scott drove a company car that looked just like that, plus this is something he would do. Looks like I have an excuse to rewatch all of The Office now. In the name of research.

Did You Know...

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.
