British golf pro Georgia Ball's "mansplaining" social media post has gone viral. The 90-second clip, filmed at a driving range near Liverpool, has been viewed more than 10 million times. The video shows Georgia, a certified PGA pro and instructor, practising her swing, only to be given "helpful" tips by a male golfer. The BBC has the story — and the clip.

Police were called to a Willy Wonka event in Glasgow after angry parents demanded refunds of their £35 (US$44.37) fee.

Many people dread small talk (not us, now tell us about your vacation plans). Human connectivity researcher Georgie Nightingall says it can be a way of building deeper connection, trust and curiosity. “You can actually realize that you do want to know more rather than having that sense of like, I’m just asking for the sake of asking,” she told Vox. Here are some tips on how to improve your small talk abilities. We want to know, how do you feel about the art of chitchat?

"What is now considered 'vintage' technology is lusted after — even if it no longer works — for how it looks in the home," says Dwell's Alana Hope Levinson. She spoke to people who use old PC keyboards, Microsoft promotional items from the 1980s and more for décor, and a guy who converts iBook G3 clamshells into iPad cases.

In America, married people get more than 1,000 legal benefits that single people can't access. Vox's Sigal Samuel asks why people in a platonic partnership can't enjoy the same kind of benefits, and why society values friendships less than familial relationships and marriages. Do you have a "best friend?"

A well-meaning rescuer brought what they thought was a baby hedgehog to a wildlife hospital in Cheshire, U.K., only to be told it was the pompom from a hat. Here's the sweet story from the BBC.

Both Miss USA, Noelia Voigt, and Miss Teen USA, UmaSofia Srivastava, have relinquished their titles this week. Voigt described in a leaked letter a "toxic work environment" within the Miss USA Organization, and Srivastava said her personal values "no longer fully align with the direction of the organization.” Fans soon observed that the capital letters of the first 11 sentences in Voigt's social media post spell out "I am silenced." Vox dives into what the heck is going on, including a look at the pageant's unedifying history. What's your opinion on beauty pageants?

Amid the somber D-Day anniversary commemorations came some joy, as a 100-year-old U.S. veteran returned to Normandy to marry his 96-year-old bride. Harold Terens was a radio operator mechanic who traveled to Normandy to transport freed American prisoners of war to England, and wanted to marry in Normandy to have the soldiers killed on D-Day attend in spirit. "I want them to know that they're not forgotten, he told NBC News. He met his bride, Jeanne Swerlin, in 2021, after his wife of 70 years died. "Love is not only for the young. We still get butterflies," Swerlin said. "We get a little action also."
