In 2008 and at the age of 45, Flea, bass player of the multiplatinum rock band Red Hot Chili Peppers, enrolled as a freshman at University of Southern California’s music program to learn the academic side of music.

So… Drive-Thru Workers Can Apparently Hear EVERYTHING You Say – Even When the Speaker Isn’t On
Uh-oh…
If you tend to visit your local drive-thru pretty regularly, you might not love this. You see, it seems that drive-thru employees can hear every single thing you say in your car, even when you’re just waiting for the speaker to turn on.
One Reddit user and drive-thru worker posted the tidbit, just to let everyone know that, yup, they can hear you. Their headsets pick up pretty much everything.

“As soon as you drive up to the speaker, we get a beep over our headsets and the transmission begins,” Redditor wreckinitralph wrote. “If we don’t answer you right away – we can hear everything. If we apologize and say we’ll be with you in a minute – you’re not on hold, we can hear everything. If you’ve ordered but the drive-thru line won’t let you pull ahead yet – we can hear every single thing you’re saying. I wish I could forget some of the stuff I’ve heard.”
Whoooaaaaa. So, basically don’t talk crap about the drive-thru until after you’ve safely pulled away with your food. And if you need to say something embarrassing or top-secret, maybe roll your windows up and whisper? Your car is not as private as you think!

Another Reddit user had a similar and equally horrifying revelation in the comments of the post.
“This also applies when you’re on any type of support chat. Whatever you type, even if you don’t press enter, is transmitted right to them as you’re typing it,” user Steve90000 wrote.
WHAT. What kind of cruel world is this, anyway?

New Emoji Coming Out Later This Year Will Seriously Improve Sexting
I can’t believe it needs to be said, but if last year taught us anything it’s that unsolicited dick pics (or just unsolicited dicks in general) are NOT cool. Nobody needs to see that, trust me. You don’t have some magically gorgeous penis that’s going to instantly make the recipient of your dick pic be like, “You know, I’ve hated every other dick that flew into my inbox without my consent, but yours really changed my mind!”
Now, thanks to the extremely clever devils at the emoji factory (that’s where emojis are made, right?), the anti-dick pic brigade will soon have a brand new emoji weapon at their disposal.
The Unicode Consortium announced that 230 new emojis will be released this year. The new emojis include a lot more diversity, more animals and foods and tools, and… a pinching hand.

The pinching hand looks like a hand that is saying, “THIS SMALL.” As in, “This dick is THIS SMALL.”
Men and creeps everywhere are shook.
Photo Credit: Twitter
As they very well should be.
Photo Credit: Twitter
Men’s egos are fragile, especially when it comes to size.
Photo Credit: Twitter
And while women have always had the words “wow so small” at our disposal, something about a single emoji is just a whole new level of roast.
Photo Credit: Twitter
Unless dudes have good reason to believe that a woman is interested in seeing their dick, they probably won’t risk receiving this emoji in response.
Photo Credit: Twitter
Which means they’ll exercise greater caution, which is exactly what they should’ve been doing all along!
Photo Credit: Twitter
One small step for the Emojipedia, one large step for womankind.

20 Parents Whose Kids Are Obsessed with Technology
Kids these days are raised on technology. It’s become such a ubiquitous part of our lives, and – let’s face it – it’s an easy way to buy a few moments of peace after a long day of parenting. We all do it, and that’s ok.
Listen, as long as you limit screen time it’s not a big deal. And even if the kids get a bit oversaturated on the tech, just remember how much TV you watched as a kid. Isn’t it better to have a babysitter that’s interactive than one that kids mindlessly stare at for hours on end?
The following 20 parents (and potential parents) honestly couldn’t care less what people think of how much tech they give their kids (or will give their kids). Because reasons. Deal with it.
1. It’s a part of life people. Time to accept that.

2. Yes, kids can be jerks.
Photo Credit: Whisper
3. Moderation is key.
Photo Credit: Whisper
4. zzzzzzzzzzzzzz

5. Keep the focus on what’s important.

6. Perhaps!

This Hawaiian Cat Sanctuary is Home to Over 600 Kitties
If you’re a cat lover, then boy have I got a vacation destination for you! This place is absolutely teeming with kitties, and it also happens to be on the island paradise of Hawaii!

On the Hawaiian island of Lanai, the Lanai Cat Sanctuary is home to more than 600 stray kitties.

And yes, you can visit the sanctuary, play with all the cats, and even adopt some of them if you are so inclined.
Photo Credit: Facebook, Lanai Cat Sanctuary
The cats live in a fenced-in area about half the size of a football field, complete with all kinds of enclosures and holes to play in, on, and around.

Executive Director Keoni Vaughn says, “The average person who’s not a crazy cat person thinks, ‘Oh my God, [the sanctuary] has got to be gross and stink’—but it’s the absolute opposite. The two compliments we get the most are: A) It doesn’t smell, and B) It doesn’t feel like 600 cats.”
Photo Credit: Facebook, Lanai Cat Sanctuary
The sanctuary is currently being expanded and the goal is to have room for 1,200 cats at some point.
Photo Credit: Facebook, Lanai Cat Sanctuary
The sanctuary receives about 12,000 visitors each year. Lanai has a large feral cat problem, which is why the sanctuary was established.

Vaughn said about 40% of the sanctuary’s cats become socialized due to visitors, despite coming to the facility as feral animals.

If you can’t make it all the way to Hawaii, you can still make a donation and sponsor a kitty at the sanctuary and you’ll receive monthly updates and photos.
I’m currently looking into plane tickets to Hawaii…
