A passenger offered a honeymoon-bound couple their seat on the plane at a cost they weren’t willing to pay. Wondering if they were in the wrong for charging the newlyweds, the passenger asked Reddit users what they thought, detailing the situation in the popular confession forum, Am I The A**hole. The Reddit writer prefaced the story by admitting their flight was from Melbourne to Dubai, a 13-hour and 50-minute flight non-stop. Because the Redditor knew the travel time would be long, they splurged on a premium economy seat for comfort purposes. The passenger assigned to the seat over was the...

This year’s area of low oxygen in the Gulf of Mexico is larger than average, the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) announced on Thursday. The “dead zone” is approximately 6,705 square miles , as measured last week. Within NOAA’s 38 years of measuring the dead zone, this year’s assessment marks the 12th-largest area of low to no oxygen, which can kill fish and marine life.

Living in the area of Wood Dale, I am always on the hunt to try somewhere local and support them. I remember trying Elio Pizza several years ago and I was not really impressed with the food. However, my biggest complaint was the atmosphere created by the employees. My first interaction felt very cliquey, with preferential treatment given to people they knew instead of new customers.

Tommy Cimato, who goes by the username @tommycimato on TikTok, recently shared five things that one should never do on an airplane and he makes some valid points. "Do not touch the flush button or lever with your bare hands. It is super unsanitary and pretty gross," he says at the beginning of his video.

Designed to stand out among the competition, Secretlab’s MAGNUS desk offered innovative features instead of doing more of the same. But it wasn’t perfect as it lacked a sit-to-stand function and had a rather limited desk space. Those are no longer problems with the arrival of the MAGNUS Pro, however.
