Comedian Tig Notaro eloquently opens up about love and grief in Upworthy exclusive

“The very last thing Andrea said to me at their bedside was: ‘Tig, I loved being your friend.'”

Tig Notaro truly contains multitudes. She has the ability to keep people howling by charmingly re-framing the world in an absurd, yet hilariously joyous way. And this same brilliant mind that brings uproarious laughter, also delivers vulnerable depth in equal measure.
After the death of her close friend, poet Andrea Gibson, Notaro appeared on CNN’s All There Is with Anderson Cooper podcast to discuss grief. (Gibson, who used they/them pronouns, and their wife Megan Falley documented their love and mortality in the gut-wrenching—and also beautifully funny—documentary Come See Me in the Good Light, directed by Ryan White.)
Cooper, who has also often been open about his struggle to make sense of death and pain, was ready to jump right in.

The one sign that someone is highly intelligent, according to author Oscar Wilde

Of course, he said it with his signature wit.

A woman carrying books and writer Oscar Wilde.
By Tod Perry
People are quick to point out when someone has changed their mind on a topic, whether it’s in the political world, where switching sides on an issue makes you a flip-flopper, or in our personal lives. When a friend suddenly changes their mind on an important issue, we become skeptical of their motives or whether they even have any genuine beliefs in the first place.
Are we a little too harsh on people who change their views? Don’t intelligent people change their minds when presented with new information, while those who are more interested in protecting their ego cling to incorrect ideas even more strongly?

In 1993, stunned ‘Wheel of Fortune’ contestants tried, and failed, to solve the show’s hardest puzzle ever

How did this even make it onto the show?

These “Wheel of Fortune” contestants struggled to solve this “slang” puzzle.
By Ryan Reed
Few TV moments are as satisfying as a Wheel of Fortune blunder. They usually go viral because of a wildly goofy answer, like the 2024 classic “Treat Yourself A Round of Sausage.” But every once in a while, it’s hard to figure out who made the mistake: the contestant or the show’s producers, who green-lit a puzzle that may have been…well, too puzzling.
Which brings us back to 1993, with one of the most bizarre moments in Wheel of Fortune history. The category was “Slang,” and three contestants were presented with one nine-letter word. It took them more than three minutes to solve as the studio filled with awkward laughter, and it’s fair to debate whether they really got it.

Woman from Denmark shares ‘normal’ things that are considered rude in Nordic countries

It’s fascinating how “common courtesy” can differ so much from place to place.

Scandinavian countries find certain things rude that are perfectly acceptable elsewhere.
By Annie Reneau
The saying, “When in Rome, do as the Romans do,” has been around since ancient times and is still a good reminder that customs and habits vary wherever you go. One of the best things about traveling to another part of the world is discovering how things you think are normal or standard are not universally so, and seeing how different cultures function broadens your ideas of the human experience.
That’s why a woman from Denmark explaining “normal” things that are considered rude in Nordic countries has caught people’s attention. People are often fascinated with Denmark, Finland, Sweden, and Norway, largely because they regularly top lists of “happiest countries in the world” (which is always a little surprising considering the weather in that part of the world alone).
Here are the 13 behaviors and habits Kelly Louise Killjoy says Nordic countries consider rude in her experience.
