SURVEYS, STUDIES & SUCH
A new survey suggests love might not conquer odor. Six in 10 people agree: recurring smells at home have sparked arguments or awkward moments with their partners, roommates, or families. From trash bins and sweaty gym gear — to pets and hobby-related fumes, 58% admitted that bad scents are often the root of household tension. Many prefer silent solutions: 59% said they secretly spray air freshener or open windows, rather than confronting the offender. Nearly half have even avoided certain rooms entirely, while some go so far as to replace rugs or furniture to erase the stench. Here are some more findings from the survey of 2,000 adults in the US . . .
• 41% have directly called out a partner’s “stinky passion.”
• 42% say odors cause weekly tension.
• 29% said smells in the home impact them multiple times a week — or more.
• 58% use air fresheners; 39% rely on deep cleaning to battle the smells created by others.
• The top offenders were found to be bathrooms, pet areas, and living rooms.
BIG SCREEN-LITTLE SCREEN
Following the years-long saga of Madonna putting together her biopic, Debbie Harry has an idea for a movie about her own life and musical legacy. The Blondie frontwoman recently revealed that she’d love for Florence Pugh to portray her in a biopic, saying: “I would be in heaven. I just think she’s a great actor and she could do anything.” The Oscar-nominated actress has previously expressed interest in the role.
Game Show Network has decided to put “100 Choices” into development. The cable channel is working to create a U.S. version of the Japanese comedic family formatted game show. It sees a a group of contestants faced with one question and 100 possible answers. If they answer correctly, they win a large cash prize, but the question is nearly impossible to answer, so they can take on 5 physical challenges that allow them to eliminate some of the choices based on their performance in each challenge.
According to Bette Midler, “Hocus Pocus” fans should get ready for a third installment of the popular film franchise, and it may be coming very soon. Midler told Andy Cohen that a script has been reviewed and “it was brilliant.” At this point, she said, she’s excited, and the team is “trying to figure out what it is and how it’s going, where it’s going to be, and how much it’s going to cost.” Midler feels the film could be ready as soon as next Halloween.
DID YA KNOW!?
53-year-old Jaromír Jágr has just suited up for his 38th professional hockey season, taking the ice for his hometown Czech league team Kladno, which he owns. Jagr, who is second on the NHL’s all-time points list, started playing pro hockey in 1988, before the Berlin Wall fell. Having played over 2,000 professional games, Jágr has had the longest playing career in pro hockey history, beginning at age 16.

SCOOP
OF THE DAY
A survey of 2,000 people in relationships has found that 26% consider their partner their “polar opposite.” Most respondents (73%) believe that opposites attract, with women slightly more likely to agree (74% vs. 69%). The survey of Americans found that introverts lean toward extroverts (58%) and extroverts toward introverts (55%). Astrology also plays a role: Aries, Libras, and Scorpios are most likely to believe opposites attract, while Tauruses are the most skeptical. Despite valuing differences, respondents still share core similarities in values, family/future goals, and relationship boundaries. In areas where they differ, 8 in 10 said their partner’s differences complete them. How? Differences often complement each other in areas like car maintenance, being handy, or cooking. And 84% say they can’t imagine life without their partner. Aww….
Here is how respondents and their partners said they fit into the concept of “opposites attract”…
☞ I’m social and extroverted, and he is shy and introverted
☞ I like to be active, but my wife is a couch potato
☞ My partner is serious, and I am super friendly with everyone
☞ My husband is very calm, nothing upsets him, and I am the total opposite: I get mad very quickly
☞ I’m a huge worrier, and he is the opposite
☞ My husband loves all types of food, I have a very limited palate
☞ I am a night owl, and he is a morning person

WEIRD NEWS
You can now get paid to fold laundry, load the dishwasher, cook dinner…or even make espresso. AI training startups like Encord, Micro1, and Scale AI are paying people to film themselves doing everyday chores, so robots can learn how to do them too. Rates can range from $10 an hour for basic tasks to $150 for highly technical ones, like handling surgical tools. Some companies even ask participants to wear Meta’s Ray-Ban glasses while recording. It’s part of the race to give robots real-world dexterity — and maybe give YOU a little bonus for doing your Sunday chores.

THE LIST
THE GRUMPIEST COUNTRIES IN THE WORLD — ACCORDING TRAVEL WRITERS:
From icy glares in cafés to stone-faced taxi drivers and joyless tour guides, here are some of the world’s grumpiest destinations, according to a group of well-traveled travel writers…
☞ Greece: Despite its postcard charm, Athens wasn’t exactly full of smiles. The taxi drivers at the cradle of democracy were rude, and the tour guide preferred to skip the Parthenon!
☞ China: In Chengdu, home of the adorable panda, the atmosphere wasn’t quite as cuddly. After forgetting her purse, a traveller faced suspicious staff, police threats, and a reluctant escort back to her hotel.
☞ Indonesia: In Java, locals bristled at laughter, taxi drivers were testy, and shopkeepers perfected the art of disdain. One pharmacist even refused to serve him…for reasons still unknown.
☞ Mexico: Warm smiles turn to icy glares when the pesos run out. A once-friendly guide quickly soured when his guests stopped shopping, and soon every “cultural stop” became a pressure-filled sales pitch.
☞ USA (Airports Only): Inside US airports, smiles vanish faster than your patience at security. One writer endured interrogation so personal it veered into hairline commentary. Away from the airport, Americans are warm and chatty…but between customs and check-in, expect no joy.
☞ Argentina: Argentinians have a word for their collective mood: bronco. It’s a mix of anger, frustration, and exasperation. With their political chaos and economic woes, tempers flare easily. Still, their wit and passion can turn that fury into fun.
☞ France: Ah, the Gallic shrug — a global symbol of chic disdain. Paris lived up to its frosty rep: curt waiters, impatient metro riders, and the sighs of superiority. But head south, and you’ll find the warmth the capital forgot.
☞ Brazil: In Salvador, smiles were scarce, street hawkers were relentless, and even the tour guide seemed exhausted by tourists. When friendly locals finally appeared, the writer was so surprised she assumed it was a setup.
☞ French Canada (Quebec): Montreal’s bilingual charm felt more like a linguistic minefield. Asking for an English menu triggered a glare that could curdle maple syrup. Locals advise you first ask permission to speak English, rather than beg forgiveness afterward.
☞ Austria: In Vienna, grumbling is practically an art form. Locals take pride in their right to complain, tour guides mock your shoes, and café owners threaten to call the police when you take a pic.
