  • 10 reasons why Wolverine the ‘badass’ would definitely be a bad roommate!

    10 reasons why Wolverine the ‘badass’ would definitely be a bad roommate!

    When we hear the term superheroes, Wolverine is one that comes to mind among few. While many of us wish we had his super powers, those adamantine claws and regenerative factors topped with super human strength make him a real badass superhero. But in reality if we really knew Wolverine, believe us – living with him would be pretty sucky. Here are some reasons why Wolverine would make the worst roommate ever.

    1. Hair, hair, everywhere: Wolverine is known to be hairy, that implies hair strands all over the house! Maybe in the food, in the bathroom or on your bed, god knows where all. Ewww……

    2. Anger Management: Having a roommate comes with a lot of quarrels over trivial issues – that’s a given. And when that time comes, be prepared to get thrashed, scratched and bashed all over by this angry mutant. Even if the argument was in your favour, be insanely careful when he’s in a foul mood lest you might end up regretting picking up a fight with the wrong team!

    3. Drunken Stupor: Wolverine is known to be a drunk, and most of the time you’ll be that friend who’ll have to carry his drunken ass home! Seriously, listening to all his issues (he does have a loooooot of issues) and resolving the fights he picks up with random strangers is going to be a task. Worst case scenario? Imagine him losing his temper over his roommate without realizing you’re on his side.

    4. Getting slashed: You’ll probably end up getting slashed, a lot of times. Perhaps when you have guests over, you’ll have to sleep all stuffed together on a single bed with him. And bam! You get stabbed in the stomach!

    5. The aftermath: Half the time you’ll be apologising to people for the trouble he has caused, perhaps he had a fight with the neighbours, or he broke the car of a random dude just cause he was angry or he tore a train apart cause he was drunk! Realising that these people can’t really stand up against Wolvie, random thugs might end up beating you instead for revenge.

    6. The lady killer: Imagine after a lot of hit and tries you finally bring a girl home and in a single glace at Wolvie she dumps you on the spot and falls for your roommate instead! Bummer, there goes your golden opportunity again!

    7. The house filth: Men being men, the house will tend to get dirty with bits of trash here and there, probably a lot of cigarette butts and crushed beer cans lying on the ground. And you can’t really expect Wolverine to grab the broom and start cleaning. Or putting on gloves to do the dishes. Get to work and clean the place ya lazy bum.

                                                     
    source

    8. The fans: If Wolverine did exist, half the time your house would be surrounded by fans wanting to ask questions and to get autographs and what not. Since Wolverine is a master at being lazy you might have to end up dealing with this too. Most people would be envious of you living with a superhero, only if they knew!

    wolverine-psy-gangnam-style-hugh-jackmansource

    9. The daily bread: Being a superhero is a 24/7 job. Meaning – you’ll pretty much be doing all the earning in the house, providing the daily bread, paying the bills and fulfilling the drinking and smoking habits of that lazy mutant, all this comes under your territory. Think again, is it really worth it?

    sleepinsource

    10. The wet dog smell: People usually smell really good after taking a shower. However, Wolverine would give a different experience to you if you meet him right after a shower. An experience that will leave you scarred and will only remind you of your wet dog!

    Despite all these facts, we’d still gladly accept Wolverine as our roommate. After all, you don’t get an opportunity to have superhero roommate every day. Mi casa es su casa

She chose to hold on her own and made Mr. Clooney sit pretty on the list of celebrities with attractive spouses.

The most commonly observed tweet talks about them WhiteWalkers killing the rest of the population and taking over the world!

Its coverage is expected to have the highest audience by far.

    Tom Ford turned an Apple watch into a pocket watch and it’s fabulous!

    Tom Ford recently unveiled his spring 2016 ready-to-wear collection at his Sloane Street boutique in London, where all the models hit the runway in well-tailored suits and sports jackets. Ford has redefined the style quotient for men this year with laying emphasis on three-piece suits and vibrant colours. Not just the clothes, Tom Ford also made sure he accessorised men well. The one detail that stood out from the rest was the collection including a revamped version of the popular Apple watch. The watch was attached to a chain to create a pocket watch revitalising the classic form and making it more fashionable.

    For those who thought that pocket watches were out of style, take a look at how Tom Ford has brought the 80’s style back with this modern accessory.

  • Have you met Kristen Stewart’s new GIRLFRIEND?

    Have you met Kristen Stewart’s new GIRLFRIEND?

    It’s been a long time since Kristen Stewart came into the spotlight especially since her split from long-term love Robert Pattison, two years ago. After keeping low-key for a pretty long time Kristen Stewart’s personal life has flared back up and she has finally moved on. The Twilight actress is known for keeping her love life private since her fling with director Rupert Sanders, for obvious reasons. Breaking the ice with the media, her mother Jules Stewart has confirmed that her daughter is a bisexual and is dating her personal assistant Alicia Cargile, shocked? So were we!

    Her relationship with her assistant is out in the open now. It seems to us that the couple loves to dress alike and can’t seem to get their hands off each other. Both of them have been spotted at various places holding hands and canoodling (PDA alert!) at multiple occasions. They have even got matching tattoos of arrows pointing in the same direction on their right arm, isn’t that cute?

    Rumour also  has it that they are  engaged. Take a look.

  • This week in science – a single blood test shows every virus you’ve been exposed too!

    This week in science – a single blood test shows every virus you’ve been exposed too!

    Science has added yet another feather to its hat to make lives easier. A single test can now help you find out all the viruses you’ve ever been exposed to. Hard to believe? Read on to know all about it. 

    “That’s what happens when you invent technology — you can’t imagine what people will do with it,” said Dr. Elledge, professor of genetics at Harvard Medical School. This man can reveal every virus you’ve ever been exposed to using less than a drop of your blood!

    05virus1-master675Source

    The main purpose of this test is to become an important research tool for tracking patterns of diseases in various samples of people from different parts of the world. However, this virus is only in the experimental stages for now as it does not detect small viruses. Dr Stephen J. Elledge has named and patented this test as VirScan and it can be completed in short span ranging from two days to two months. 

     

    Confused about how this works?

    The test works by detecting antibodies, highly specific proteins that the immune system has made in response to viruses, in your body.

    How much does it cost?

    And if you think that this test will cost you a bomb, you’re wrong! Finding out about all the viruses your body has been exposed to will only leave you short of $25 in your account.

    45317714 (1)Source

    This professor of genetics currently working at Harvard Medical School believes that VirScandeserves to be a part of a large scale organization so as to produce better results for people wanting to know about the history of viruses their bodies have faced so far.

    What doesn’t kill you, only makes you stronger!

  • Up, up and away! And that’s how Mother Targaryen killed it in Game of Thrones Episode 9!

    Up, up and away! And that’s how Mother Targaryen killed it in Game of Thrones Episode 9!

    Let’s admit it; the entire world was thrilled with last week’s installment of Game of Thrones (episode 8) as the Whitewalkers came snarling down the mountains destroying almost half the wildlings’ army. As the winter approached in the north, our beloved kingdoms of the south had a different story to tell. Take a look at a flash back of the latest episode and what made it so awesome!

    Spoilers ahead OBVIOUSLY!

    1. Game of Thrones Season 5 Episode 9 – ‘The Dance of Dragons’ concluded with a beautiful, like never before, twist in the end as Khaleesi gave her fans something to look forward to (finally the woman has started to make sense)! Yes, her free dragon named ‘Drogon’ saved the day (and his mother) while in an attack by the Sons of the Harpy in Meereen! We bet the moment when she mounts Drogon and flees away from the fighting arena stole the hearts of millions around the world! Long live Khaleesi! Now get the other two children out (It’s about time).

    PS – While all this happened, did we mention that Hizdahr zo Loraq got murdered by the Sons of the Harpy? Dang! Was a good man, that one!

     Khaleesi

    2. Stannis Baratheon – We dislike you (read HATE). Who sets his own daughter on fire for an Iron Throne? Our hearts were shattered when Lady Melisandre torched up the pyre with Princess Shireen tied to it. Game of Thrones has showed us how bad/inhuman people can really be! Well atleast, Stannis got a little dose by the Boltons in the beginning of the episode where Ramsay with an army of 20 raided their tents and lit up their horses. Good move boy! Next time, go for Melisandre! She’s the cunning counselor that will surely take Stannis down one day.

     Shireen

    3. Jon Snow makes it back to the wall (with the wildlings) – Yes, Lord commander Jon Snow made it back with the left over army of wildlings to prepare for a bigger battle with the Whitewalkers. We’d love to see that now, won’t we? Alliser Thorne seemed a bit reluctant in opening the gates for them at first, but does it anyway. God knows what’s in store for this new union between the two arch enemies!

     Wildlings

    4. Little Arya sure has something on her mind. Her role in the last episode wasn’t very clear regarding what she really wanted, but we definitely know there’s something plotting in her little head! The thin-man isn’t one of her biggest concerns right now!

     Arya

    5. Jamie Lannister’s daughter is finally getting home! With Jamie and Bronn declared free by Prince Doran, now the reunited father and daughter are set to go back to King’s Landing joined by the prince of Dorne Trystane Martell who is to wed Jamie’s daughter!

     Jamie

    Well that’s it for now! Stay tuned for a round up of the series and what to look forward to in SEASON 6! Yes, we are working on feeding your thriller cravings already!
