"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.

When it comes to securing the best seat on a plane, you're often stuck choosing your battles. Sure, you can splurge on a first or business-class ticket to get maximum comfort, but that means digging deep into your wallet. Or, you can save some cash and squeeze into a cramped coach seat, relying on viral TikTok hacks to make it bearable and a wee bit comfier. Ultimately, it's all about your personal preference and tolerance levels. However, if personal space is your top priority, consider the advice of travel experts: choose a seat at the back of the plane. Yes, the very seats that many dread might actually be your best bet for some peace and quiet.

Starting back in 2006, you may have noticed a new camera-like icon appear on the front of your passport. That's when the United States started implementing biometric passports, also known as e-Passports. The first country to use them was Malaysia in 1998, with other countries following suit in the years that followed. These handy little booklets, which are becoming easier for people to obtain for travel, still otherwise functioned the same way as any passport you'd had before, but now they contain a microchip that security personnel at airports can read.

DEAR ABBY: We invited a couple for a short visit to our remote country cabin. Afterward, I discovered a pair of pink panties lying on the road in front of our mailbox. When I picked them up with a stick to carry to the trash, I realized they were a pair of clean pink panties I had misplaced. They must have stuck to the sheets I had placed on the bed immediately before our guests arrived. 

Now I can’t stop wondering what this couple must have been thinking when they tossed the panties. This may not seem like a serious issue,...
