ANOTHER PROM
If you're TAYLOR SWIFT, you wouldn't ever be worried about the fact that you didn't make it to your prom. Because she keeps getting invited to them!
Taylor got invited to another high school prom...but this might be one she'll actually attend. A boy named Devon Whitney made a YouTube video asking Taylor to his senior prom in Aurora, Colorado.
Devon has an extremely rare disease called Oto-Palatal-Digital Syndrome, or OPD. He's had over two-dozen surgeries since he was born. The syndrome also makes Devon look a little different.
He told Denver's KUSA-TV, "People stare at me because of the way I look. They laugh at me and talk behind my back. And sometimes I can hear them. You want to say something, but you can't. And it hurts."
Devon says he's too shy to ask anyone in school to the prom...so he decided to shoot for the moon and see if Taylor would go.
His YouTube video has gotten thousands of views...and I'm guessing word has probably gotten back to Taylor by now.
Here's the KUSA news report about Devon. Take a look and I guarantee you'll be pulling for him. And here's Devon's YouTube video.
MORE MOM STUFFEarlier this week, a survey found that men spend at least 62% more on Mother's Day gifts than women. So you COULD argue that your son loves you more than your daughter. Well...another survey's not so sure.
In a survey by the website RetailMeNot, men were two-and-a-half times more likely to have FORGOTTEN to wish their moms a happy Mother's Day than women.
Overall, 14% of people say they've forgotten at some point. But the breakdown is 20% of men and only 8% of women.
The survey also found that 73% of mothers say they really do want a gift for Mother's Day...with gift cards as the top choice, and flowers as the number two choice.
Also, 38% most want a fancy dinner, 32% would like to go to brunch...and only 7% want breakfast in bed.
Fortunately, your mom is old enough NOT to be part of this survey. So you can assume that when she and your dad GET-IT-ON...she's not playing "Words With Friends" mid-coitus. But other moms are.
In a new survey of mothers ages 18 to 35, 12% admit they check their phones during sex. (how can sex be THAT boring for someone that they need to check their phone? I'm amazed)
21% use their phones in the bathroom.
81% are on Facebook...but 53% say Facebook is a waste of their time.
And 67% say at least half of the apps on their phone are for their kids.
WHERE DO YOU SLEEP?According to a new survey, 67% of Americans admit they fall asleep somewhere other than their bed at least once every few weeks. 10% say it happens daily. So where are we randomly passing out? Check it out...
12% have fallen asleep at work.
10% have fallen asleep at school or in class.
7% have fallen asleep at church.
5% have fallen asleep in a car . . . and 2% have fallen asleep WHILE DRIVING.
4% have fallen asleep ON THE TOILET.
3% have fallen asleep in meetings.
And 1% have fallen asleep either at a bar...a party...the doctor's office...STANDING UP...during a conversation...AT A CONCERT (Jason Mraz, I'm sure)...in a court room...in the bathtub or shower...or DURING SEX.
CONAN DOES LETTERMANCONAN O'BRIEN will be a guest on "The Late Show with David Letterman" next Thursday. It'll be his first time on the show in 13 YEARS.
Obviously, we can expect some jabs at JAY LENO...since both Conan and Letterman have lost gigs on "The Tonight Show" to Leno.
20 years ago, Leno was brought in to replace JOHNNY CARSON when Letterman was expected to get the job...and in 2010, NBC basically pushed Conan out after seven months when Jay decided he didn't want to retire.
Letterman openly sided with Conan when that madness was happening.
Letterman left NBC after he was screwed out of the "Tonight Show" job in 1992. Just as Conan did when he went to TBS after being ousted.
Eh, that's enough. Go enjoy your weekend!
