SURVEYS, STUDIES & SUCH: Brought to you by BetterCreditCards.com

A new study says that eating one avocado every day has some amazing health benefits, including improved sleep and diet quality. Penn State University researchers say they were already aware that eating avocados is linked to lowered risk of cardiovascular disease, but this new study found that people who consumed avocados on a daily basis for 6 months saw an improvement in their scores for sleep health, diet quality and blood lipids, such as cholesterol, without adversely affecting body weight.

It’s OK for chicken wings advertised as “boneless” to have bones, Ohio Supreme Court has ruled. Michael Berkheimer claims he was dining with his wife and friends at a wing joint in Hamilton OH, when, having ordered his usual dish — boneless wings with parmesan garlic sauce — he felt a bite-size piece of meat go down the wrong way. Three days later, feverish and unable to keep food down, he went to the ER, and doctors discovered a long, thin bone that had torn his esophagus and caused an infection. He sued the restaurant and its supplier, claiming negligence, but a divided court didn’t agree.

Ben Affleck has purchased a new multi-million dollar L.A. estate, TMZ reports, which might all but officially mark the end of his marriage to Jennifer Lopez. Real estate sources say he closed escrow on the Pacific Palisades mansion for $20.5 million. The stunning residence has 5 beds and 6 baths with breakfast and dining areas, a separate family room, den, walk-in closets, media room, powder room, guest house, and so on… Ben and J-Lo tried quietly selling their Beverly Hills home in June, but there were no takers, so they put it on the market July 11 for $68 million.

Michael C. Hall is returning to the ‘Dexter’ universe to star in a new spinoff.

By now, you’ve definitely heard that the summer blockbuster “Deadpool & Wolverine” is breaking records all over the place. But you might not be aware of this one. The threequel, features more than 100 F-bombs — 116 of them by one count, although it’s hard to keep track. That’s by far the most in any “Deadpool” film so far. The second Deadpool movie included a mere 90. Deadpool & Wolverine is also the first R-rated movie in the 34-film MCU (The previous 2 Deaspool films were produced by 20th Century Fox). And because Disney owns Marvel, that also makes it Disney’s first-ever R-rated movie.

What will Zoomers “wreck” next? Millennials are accusing Gen Z of ruining…the ‘Macarena’. A TikTok video with over 9 million views claims that Zoomers are massacring the iconic dance routine that goes with the 1990s Los Del Rio hit, by adding their own moves. Aghast, Arleth Lopez says in her vid: “Yo I feel so old, why are they dancing the Macarena like this?” The classic choreography involved outstretching arms one at a time, flipping the palms over, and crossing your arms across the chest. But in the clip posted, some 20-somethings are seen literally putting their own spin on the Macarena by rolling their arms, turning, and then doing a wave motion. Commenters were quick to jump aboard, with one writing: “THAT IS NOT THE MACARENA”, and another gasping: “WAIT WHAT WAS THATTTTT”. LINK: https://tinyurl.com/3da5dft6
