A Dictionary Just Made Its 2017 Word of the Year . . . “Milkshake Duck”?
We’re more than two weeks into 2018 but a dictionary in Australia just revealed their choice for 2017’s Word of the Year. And . . . it’s certainly unique.
Most dictionaries picked words related to our current political climate for their Word of the Year . . . Dictionary.com went with “complicit,” Merriam-Webster went with “feminism,” and Collins Dictionary went with “fake news.” Not these guys.
The Macquarie Dictionary just released THEIR word for last year, and they went with . . . “milkshake duck.”
What’s that? The definition is, quote, “a person who is initially viewed positively by the media, but is then discovered to have something questionable about them which causes a sharp decline in their popularity.”
And yeah, that DID happen a lot last year . . . with the most prominent case being that kid Keaton whose video about bullying went insanely viral, but then it turned out his mom had a history of posting racist stuff on Facebook.
The term “milkshake duck” comes from a tweet in 2016 about this phenomenon. Quote, “The whole internet loves Milkshake Duck, a lovely duck that drinks milkshakes! Five seconds later . . . we regret to inform you the duck is racist.”
You Should Never Hold in Your Sneezes . . . A Guy Just Ruptured His Throat That Way
Next time you feel like you have to sneeze, don’t try to hold it in . . . even if you’re in a meeting or on a date or in any other situation where you might not want to let it fly.
Just sneeze. Or you could make your BODY EXPLODE.
Doctors just published the case of a 34-year-old guy in the “BMJ Case Reports” journal. The guy recently went to the emergency room in Leicester, England with a swollen neck and trouble swallowing.
It turned out he’d tried to stop a sneeze by pinching his nose and closing his mouth . . . but the sneeze wound up RUPTURING the back of his throat. He needed a week of treatment in the hospital, which included eating through a feeding tube.
The doctors say that sneezes come out at about 150 miles-per-hour . . . so keeping that pressure in can potentially cause problems. And sure, it’s rare . . . but you don’t want to be one of the few people it DOES happen to.
