EOD Roundup

EOD Roundup: How to Stop Workplace Hookups


In today’s EOD roundup, it turns out that in the Venn diagrams of our lives, there is significant overlap with the “love” and “work” circles. We’ve been smooching with everybody: Snuffy; Al; Leo; Little Moe, the mail guy with the gimpy leg… New York magazine asks, “Can we be tamed?” (Personally, I think that like Miley, we can’t be.) [NY Mag]

Kim Pfannebecker was recently crowned Des Moines, Iowa’s sixth Bacon Queen. After winning the title at the Blue Ribbon Bacon Festival’s pageant, Pfannebecker reigned over her subjects in a crown and handmade bacon dress. Lady Gaga, eat your non-bacon-shielded heart out. [The Frisky]

Despite what Beyoncé has told us, being a single lady is far harder than just putting our hands up and getting someone to like it and put a ring on it — especially in good ol’ New York City. If you’re feeling a little down in the dating dumps, read these seven stories of dating successes and woes. For best results, pair with a bottle of wine and Chinese food. [Narratively]

A new app aims to rid the world of the awkward “Hey, I like you…sexually” conversation between friends. It’s (tastefully) called “Bang With Friends” and it would’ve been more useful when every user was in high school. Just a tip: if you’re committed to confessing your secret love face-to-face, don’t do it while sitting on a loveseat — if you’re rejected, the irony will be unbearable. Trust me. [Nerve]

It turns out that whales are just as wise and gentle as you’ve always imagined them being. Our dedication to living every week like it’s whale week starts now. [The Hairpin]
