Remember when if you saw someone watching TV with the subtitles turned on, you immediately assumed they were hard of hearing? Well, that’s not the case any longer. Possibly thanks to the fact that TikTok has helped normalize captions for young media consumers, a UK survey found that 80% of people aged 18-25 “use subtitles all or part of the time” when watching TV. And a poll of TV viewers in the US found that 70% of Gen Z respondents rely on captions “most of the time” compared to only 35% of Baby Boomers [those 59-77].

If
your child plays football, and you’re worried about concussions,
don’t let them play quarterback. Researchers at Orlando Health
Orlando Regional Medical Center and Penn State University came up
with a system to rate which positions face the highest risk of brain
injury through brain biomarkers, and determined the chance of
sustaining a concussion to be much higher for players in “speed
positions” such as quarterbacks, wide receivers, defensive backs,
running backs…“and other players who build up momentum prior to
tackling…or being tackled, compared to non-speed positions like
offensive and defensive linemen who engage other players before
significant momentum can be generated.”

Drew Barrymore faced a scary situation on Monday night. The daytime TV personality hosted a Q&A with singer Reneé Rapp in New York when the event was interrupted by a man rushing the stage. Video posted to TikTok showed Barrymore and Rapp caught off guard by the man, who shouted “You know who I am…I need to see you at some point while you’re in New York.” He was swiftly blocked by security as the pair were escorted off the stage to safety. They later returned to the stage, after the man was removed. The original TikTok post alleged that the man who rushed the stage was a known stalker, though that has not been confirmed.

The very thought was laughable just a few years ago, but Gen Z has canceled the fan-favorite acronym “LOL”. Instead, the slang-savvy generation has coined a more complicated term: “IJBOL”. Guessed it yet? It means “I just burst out laughing.” Admittedly, IJBOL isn’t quite as catchy as millennial terms like “LMAO” “ROFL” or “LOL”, but “IJBOL” — pronounced “eej-bowl” is more closely associated with “Gen Z humor”, which , if you ask any Gen Zer, is funnier.

Eggo Waffles has introduced a new brunch-flavored liqueur. The waffle-maker partnered with Sugarlands Distilling on the new boozy concoction, called “Eggo Brunch in a Jar Appalachian Sippin’ Cream”. The taste is inspired by the “classic brunch flavors of toasted Eggo waffles, sweet maple syrup, and rich butter, with a hint of smoky bacon.” The drink contains 20% alcohol, so you won’t be serving it to your kids for breakfast, but the companies say it pairs quite nicely with Eggo waffles.
