Who would say work was fun? Your job might be rewarding (some of the time). You may get on with your colleagues (some of them). But fun?

“I P 6 8! I P 6 8!,” shouted late-night host Jimmy Fallon, trying and failing to fake excitement about the new Pixel smartphones. Fallon, who likely had never heard the technical term before, didn’t seem to realize that IP68 — a rating that indicates phones can survive being submerged in water — isn’t all that interesting as a selling point, nor is this water-resistance feature new to Google’s Pixel line. It’s been around since the 2018 Pixel 3. We’re on the Pixel 10 now, for reference. In a surreal moment that illustrated the tendency to overhype anything associated with…

On the home team, a powerful 18-year-old prop scored three tries in a convincing win.Quinnipiac coach Becky Carlson turned to her assistant. “Oh man,” she remembered saying. “Who’s the kid in the pink scrum cap? I’d give my right arm to have her.“And then that same fall, I had a voicemail. I saved it. And she sounds like a little kid. ‘Hello, Coach Carlson, this is Ilona Maher. I just wanted to call and tell you I want to transfer from Norwich…
