I’ve never considered collecting fruit‚ but maybe it’s a lucrative opportunity. This 285-year-old lemon was just sold at an auction for an unbelievable price. You read that right: the lemon was almost 300 years old! View this post on Instagram A post shared by Brettellsauctions (@brettellsauctions) A family brought in a cabinet to Brettells Auctions to be sold. As the specialist was photographing the cabinet‚ this lemon rolled out from the back of the drawer. The lemon was inscribed with a message: “Given By Mr P Lu Franchini Nov 4 1739 to Miss E Baxter.” Romance isn’t dead‚ after all. In fact‚ it’s alive and well in this beautiful and elderly lemon. November 4… 1739! That’s a long time ago! The family handed the lemon over to Brettells‚ and it went to auction. This image is from Instagram. The highest bid? An astonishing $1‚780! Now that’s a valuable lemon! Then‚ Instagram fans had a hay day with the post‚ taking to the comments to share their wittiest puns. “You would be an absolute Lemon to not bid on this fantastic item‚” commented one fan. It’s not every day you see a lemon this old (or valuable). Perhaps we should all be using lemons instead of our phones to send texts… then we can all have a lemon auction in a few hundred years!

Sure‚ it’s pretty exciting that the Kansas City Chiefs and San Francisco 49ers are going head to head this Sunday in Super Bowl LVIII‚ but what about those iconic commercials? In addition to the game‚ folks look forward to seeing what crazy‚ hilarious‚ or even sentimental ads companies manage to come up with every year. This time around‚ Jennifer Aniston and David Schwimmer team up for a Super Bowl commercial fans of the show Friends are loving! The commercial is for Uber Eats.

Jennifer Aniston and David Schwimmer Reunite for Hilarious Super Bowl Commercial Don’t blame us‚ blame your brain.

Visual illusions have intrigued humans since time began. Whether we are staring at an M.C. Escher drawing or the more recent paintings of contemporary artists‚ we love optical illusions. Some artists are great at creating illusions that trick our eyes. @raul.rasheed AMAZING OPTICAL ILLUSION #foryoupage #fyp #fyi #Britain #Europe #America #Picture #optical #illusion #magic #Art #dog #artist #viral #viralvideo #viraltiktok ♬ original sound – Raul Rasheed Sometimes‚ visual illusions happen in real life. In the image below‚ we see a horse walking away across a snowy field. Or is it walking toward us? The dark color of the horse against the stark white background of snow makes this a real-life optical illusion. Image from TikTok. As we watch the horse walking across the field‚ it is no more evident. We still can’t tell which direction this horse is ambling as he wanders across the snowy landscape. Image from TikTok. The Science Behind Optical Illusions According to Britannica‚ a common optical illusion results from the bending of light (known as refraction). A pencil placed in a glass of water will appear significantly larger looking through the glass than the portion remaining above the water. There are several types of visual illusions. When we look at a word on a page and see something different‚ that is a perceiver-distortion illusion. Perceiver distortion is what allows us to read words that are displayed backward or have jumbled letters. Image from TikTok. We’re not going to explain all the physics behind all visual illusions. We can describe the general concept‚ though. Optical illusions occur when light refraction and other detractors confuse the message from our eyes to our brains. This confusion causes our brain to interpret the signal from our eyes incorrectly‚ creating the illusion. Watch the entire video of the horse walking in the snowy field. We think you’ll be able to figure it out eventually. But it is a fun way to spend a few minutes! Share this to confuse your friends! @rudniktheroan There were a couple of times I genuinely didn’t know… ♬ Eurythmics-Sweet Dreams – AJIMUSTANG You can find the source of this story’s featured image here.

Bryce Dallas Howard has “one special skill‚” and it’s crying on demand in the most heartbreakingly realistic way.  The Jurrasic Park star sat for a Q and A with Wired‚ and one of her questions was about her ability to shed tears. Most established actors possess the power to turn on their emotions at any given moment‚ but crying seems to be a special talent reserved for the best.  Bryce Dallas Howard would be considered one of the most elite stars in Hollywood if the ability to cry on command sets the bar.  @wired You could’ve fooled us‚ brycedallashoward. #cryingoncue #crying #actress #argyllemovie #argylle ♬ original sound – WIRED.COM “Should we test it out?” she asked in a TikTok video.  “So‚ it’s not something that takes a tremendous amount of effort‚” she continued. “Basically‚ what happens is‚ as I’m talking‚ I just lift my soft palate. My voice starts to tremble a little bit.”  As Bryce continued to explain‚ her eyes welled with tears‚ and her voice began to shake. She looked and sounded absolutely heartbroken. We actually felt bad for her.  “It’s purely technical‚” she added. “It’s not at all something that I’m feeling. I’m not feeling upset right now like whatsoever. But‚ it’s just‚ you know. It looks like I’m getting really upset. But I’m not.” “I can definitely‚ definitely‚ definitely‚ without question‚ anytime you want me to. I can cry on command‚ okay?” We believe you‚ Bryce.  TikTok After an Oscar-worthy performance‚ she paused and let out a giant belly laugh.  “Impressive‚ and it’s a little scary‚” someone wrote in the comments.  “THE WAY SHE LAUGHED AT THE END AFTER PUTTING ME THROUGH THAT‚” shouted a fan.  Share Bryce Dallas Howard’s ridiculously good skill with your friends! You can find the source of this story’s featured image here.

As Christians‚ are we supposed to feel fully content and satisfied? What about when we're suffering? In this short teaching video‚ Dr. Joel Muddamalle answers these questions as he breaks down the biblical context surrounding the popular verse: Philippians 4:13.

'The IDF says troops found a holding cell where the hostages were previously kept'

Are you ready to learn how it all ended?

'A considerable breach of ethics'

'what he actually did‚ I don't know'

This is‚ of course‚ a cynical masquerade
