The owner and head chef at Emi-no-Mise in Ogimi village in Okinawa, a Japanese island known for the extraordinarily long lives of its inhabitants, is nearly 80 years old and always smiling. It’s fitting because her name, Emi, means ‘smile’ in Japanese.

Black Friday is usually full of offers on electrical stuff that no one really wants. But occasionally, a gem appears – usually concerning food or alcohol.

What is Christmas without some sort of fizz?

You need it for breakfast Bucks Fizz. A cooling glass while you’re trying to stuff the turkey’s arse. Probably a considerable amount when you’re opening all the crap presents that you never asked for.

Prosecco is delicious but can be pricey. Champagne is incredibly moreish but prohibitively expensive.

This entirely black Christmas dinner will appeal to your inner goth

Well, this year you can sup champagne and prosecco ’till the cows come home because there are loads of Black Friday fizz deals.

Alternatively, buy up a load and give them out as Christmas presents – particularly as lots of these come in gift boxes. No one needs to know you got it on the cheap.

If you’re planning a dirty weekend away with bae then our advice would be this – research the laws of whichever country of the world you are going to in order to ensure that your personal kinks won’t land you in the slammer. While most laws around sex are obvious and very necessary, everywhere from the USA and China through to Thailand and, uhh, Birmingham have some more obscure guidelines. 

In some places, copulating on a parked motorcycle is a no-no while in others, you can only have sex with Satan if you’re wearing contraception. Some laws don’t even apply to humans – dogs can be done for molesting humans… Read the full story

It’s not unknown that you should never, ever trust your sibling when it comes to food. 

This illustrator's vulva gallery is a glorious reminder to love your body

Because, as we all know, our siblings only care about themselves and aren’t bothered whether we go hungry or not.

One Reddit user, Seely2593, has proved this theory, after his younger brother asked him to save him ‘a little bit of everything’ from the Thanksgiving dinner he missed out on due to work.

Taking his brother’s words rather literally. He saved him a little bit of everything, and he labelled each tiny piece of food just in case it was too small for his brother to see what it was.

To help children recognize the power of their own imaginations, The Monster Project has undertaken a passionate collection of artists who all hope to help children ‘pursue their creative potential’. 

This entirely black Christmas dinner will appeal to your inner goth

And they’re doing that by asking children to draw monsters.

Children are drawing them to have their creations brought to life in a range of artistic styles by professional artists.

Once the sketch has been brought to life, the results are then given back to the students in person, where they are then able to see how their own ideas influenced the artist’s imagination.

The Monster Project are encouraging kids to get creative because they feel many children aren’t given enough creative opportunities, and therefore aren’t able to explore in great depth their creative talents.

The project, started by… Read the full story

Yes, we get that Christmas is meant to be all about festive cheer, Santa, and sparkles.

But maybe that just doesn’t fit in with our cool, edgy aesthetic. Or our Instagram theme.

Polly the anxious goat is only calm when she wears her duck costume

So while a full-on turkey dinner with all the tinsel and trimmings may be a good shout on the big day itself, we’ll also need to rack up at least one edgier take on Christmas.

Nothing too weird, to be clear. We still want Christmassy food. But just make it cool, yeah?
