Spilling the tea

The dirty demands run the gambit, from pervert customers asking her to take sexy slurps out of their cups to demands that she serve beverages with "flavoured straws" - meaning drinking straws she'd inserted inside her body. Morris, a young barista, is gaining eyeballs on TikTok by sharing her daily unusual experiences with numerous customers.

"So I know this sounds crazy, but this has definitely happened to me a handful of times." Cafe Fox's Grace Morris, 20, explained in a trending TikTok clip to her more than 8,48,000 followers. In the percolating post, which has garnered more than 1.7 million views, Morris - who, daily, wears lacy lingerie, corsets and thongs to serve cups of Joe to patrons at a roadside coffee shop in Washington state - is responding to a commenter who asked, "Has anyone ever tipped you to take a sip from their drink though?" To that enquiry, the blond bombshell said, "[Customers] are always like, ‘Ooh, will you try my drink first?'" she mimicked. "Or like, I'll go to hand it to them, and they'll go, ‘Five bucks if you try it first.'" Initially, the requests irritated her. Despite the freaky nature of the bid, Morris happily humours her regular customers.

Get a reward for not using the internet

Minnesota teen Sivert Klefsaas won $1,800 from his mother for abstaining from social media

A Minnesota teen won nearly $2,000 from his mom this past weekend for doing the unthinkable today: staying off social media for six years. The Facebook fad began in 2016, when the Motley resident's mom, Lorna Goldstrand Klefsaas, challenged her then-12-year-old to abstain from using social networks until his 18th birthday. If the boy did so, he'd get a $1,800 cheque from her, KARE11 reported. Lorna's son was more than up for the challenge. "Being 12, I didn't really have that great a concept of money yet," Sivert said. "So, I was, like, ‘Oh sick, yeah - absolutely.'"

Lorna was inspired by a radio contest called the "16 for 16," in which a mother offered her daughter $1,600 if she shunned social media until her sweet 16. Naturally, a teen staying off social media might seem akin to a sea bass surviving in the Sahara. However, Sivert said he didn't use social media at all at 12, recounting a time he signed up for Snapchat only to delete it a day later.

Our lives flash before our eyes when we die: Study

A study, published in the journal Frontiers in Aging Neuroscience, is based on one of the first recordings of a dying brain, which occurred accidentally at a hospital in Vancouver. This groundbreaking new study has shed light on what happens in our bodies in the moments before and after we die. Brain activity similar to meditation, dreaming or memory recall passes over the brain in its final moments, the study found, suggesting there may be a final feeling of serenity as humans pass away.
