These 3 Simple Moves Are Going to Give You the Booty of Your Dreams

We Wish We Still Got Love Letters Like This One Sent From a Fifth Grader
My niece is in 5th grade and got her first love note. This 5th grader has more game than I'll ever have. from funny
One fifth grader's love letter is currently charming the internet and anyone who reads it. Someone shared the sweet note on Reddit after it had been given to their niece, also in fifth grade. They shared the note with the caption, "This 5th grader has more game than I'll ever have."
In the letter, which currently has over a thousand comments on Reddit, the fifth grader professes their love in the best way they know how - with video game references. The letter says, "My heart felt like broken glass until I saw you, and then, I felt like I had every Pokémon ever." Adding, "I love how you play Zelda even when people think it's weird."
Though the references might scream tween, the letter's intentions surpass age. If we're being honest, we'd love to receive a letter this heartfelt.

10 Things I've Learned After 10 Years of Marriage
This post was originally posted on Yanira Garza and written by Yanira Garza, who is a part of POPSUGAR Select Latina.
Today is my 10-year wedding anniversary. Damn. Time flew. It seems like only yesterday, I literally was watching him walk down the hallway, hoping he didn't catch me looking. He still asks if I see him as a piece of meat. (Yes. Yes, I do.)
We made it. Some said we wouldn't (haters), but we did. Not unscathed, but we did, because we wanted to. We have both grown so much in ten years, and while we are still not experts in marriage, we figured out a few things that helped us hang on this far. Here are ten things I've learned over the years.
1. Flirt
My husband, though he doesn't admit it, is flirtatious in nature. Not necessarily a sexual type of flirtation, but he does give off a very charming vibe. People tend to gravitate towards him, and I find it very attractive that people are attracted, even if it is just to his persona - I don't need him to get a big ol' head. At the same time, he's very aware of how flirtatious he can be when he tries, and luckily, still tries with me. When in a room full of 10s, make your spouse feel like an 11 from way across the room, and you're doing it right.
2. Fight Fairly
I would love to say we fought because we were passionate, but the truth is, sometimes we fought because we were jerks. We know exactly how to push each others buttons, so if it is ever pushed, it is simply because the person doing the pushing is being a jerk. Having disagreements is natural, but being respectful helps resolve them faster. Don't be a jerk to your spouse.
3. Making Up Is Important
My husband wouldn't apologize. Ever. Even when he was wrong, especially when he was wrong. Apologies were reserved simply to apologize for my misinterpretation. Enter: eye roll. But eventually, he learned to swallow his pride at times, because the words were important to me. I learned to realize that his actions after were more important. It took me 10 years to realize that, while he doesn't like to say he is sorry, he always shows me when he is. Honestly, that matters more.
4. Make Time
We have three kids, so date nights have turned into "date evenings," where we literally just watch Netflix on the couch with snacks. But we make it a point most nights to be together, even if that means all hands on deck to pick up toys, clean the kitchen, and put our spawns to bed. We give up stereotypical gender roles to make that time.
5. Talk Sh*t
We bicker.
"You make me sick, Eddie."
"Morning sickness, Yany. Quit your nagging woman." My husband calls me Yany. You can still call me Yanira though.
Let's just say it's another way we flirt. We act like 12 year olds with each other. Have fun with your partner.
6. Balance, But Challenge
I am a helpless romantic - a huge daydreamer, a risk-taker. My husband is grounded and well-informed but sticks to his comfort zones. When I float off the ground, he holds my ankles, and in exchange, I keep him on his toes.
7. Learn to Be Still
Sometimes your spouse needs to vent, cry, or fall apart. It is not your job to fix it but to be still and allow them to be vulnerable, without judgment, criticism, or unsolicited advice. Even if you do not understand why they are falling apart, just be still.
8. Walk in Their Shoes
My husband and I see things differently. It doesn't make our perspectives any less valid, just different. Agree to disagree and move on. Except, of course, in moments when your spouse is hurt. Even if you cannot understand why they're upset, it is not your job to tell them how they should feel. If they feel wronged, find a way to make it right instead of arguing.
9. Vent Wisely
Don't go running your mouth venting about your spouse to just about anybody. There are people cheering on your failures and blocking your success. It is OK to get advice from your girlfriends if you really need it, but just make sure they are truly friends. Those issues should be addressed to your spouse.
10. You Don't Have to Be in Love
Say what?! Yep. I said it. I love my husband, but I'm not always in love. Life happens, but you have to put in that work. It can be a wink from across a crowded room, a phone call in the middle of the day to share a hilarious story, a stolen kiss on a subway platform in Paris (yes, I'm that hopeless, and it has happened), and just like that you are in love again. It's easy when to fall in love when the other person makes it easy for you to fall in love. It's the same reason I try to look and be my best. I want him to fall in love too.
The best love stories aren't the ones with a happily ever after. They are the ones that continue, page after page, with stories of imperfect beings tangled up in messes that never end. Happy 10. Holy sh*t, we made it, babe.

One Airline Is Introducing "Quiet Zones" Where Children Are Not Welcome
Flying with children can be difficult for everyone involved - parents, fellow passengers, and flight attendants. One airline finds it to be such an inconvenience, however, that they will begin testing designated zones where children under 12 will not be allowed to sit.
IndiGo, a low-cost carrier in India, recently said it would introduce "Quiet Zones" where young children are not seated. On Twitter, IndiGo said the zone will take up rows one to four and 11 to 14 - a total of eight rows.
@iamvir1 Rows 1-4 and 11-14 will serve as "Quiet Zones". These seats will primarily only be assigned to passengers above 12 years of age.>>
- IndiGo (@IndiGo6E) October 5, 2016
In a statement reported by an NBC news affiliate, IndiGo said the zones were created in the best interest of passengers traveling for work. The statement read, "These zones have been created for business travelers who prefer to use the quiet time to do their work."
The announcement has been met with mixed feedback on Twitter, however, IndiGo will continue on with their unprecedented proposal.

What 1 Woman Wishes She'd Known Before Trying to Lose Weight - Learn From Her Mistakes
I was no stranger to the freshman 15 in college - in fact, I experienced something closer to the freshman 30. It wasn't until I saw a photo of myself heading into my sophomore year that I realized I was carrying quite a few extra pounds and that it was time to do something about it. It took me a very long time to lose the weight (we're talking not until after graduation), all because I thought I knew what I was doing. Boy, was I wrong. Here are four things I wish I'd known at the start of my weight-loss journey.
Get That Spoon Out of the Jar!
While peanut butter is full of heart-healthy fats, it's not void of calories - one tablespoon contains 105. I found myself spooning it straight out of the jar, wondering why my jeans weren't any looser. This is important to remember with all healthy foods: just because they aren't considered junky doesn't mean you can eat as much as you want. Be aware of portion sizes when it comes to whole grains, nuts, seeds, and health-food-store snacks.
No Meat, No Dairy
My two roommates in college were tall, skinny, and vegan, so I thought eating a plant-based diet was the key to dropping pounds. I may have ditched animal products, but I ended up eating tons of pasta, bread, french fries, dairy-free ice cream, and vegan chocolate cupcakes instead. Had I focused on fresh fruits, veggies, legumes, and whole grains, a vegan diet might have helped me reach my weight-loss goal, but my junk-food vegan diet actually caused me to gain weight.
How About a Walk?
Walking is definitely a better workout than just sitting on the couch, so I thought strolling through the mall and walking to class would do the trick. But walking isn't a major calorie burner like running. When it comes to losing weight, you need to burn or cut out 3,500 calories a week to lose a pound. A 30-minute walk only burns around 122 calories, which is well under the 500 it takes to affect a weekly weigh-in. If you want to lose weight, you'll need to kick up the intensity and the length of your workouts.
Time to Dig In
After hitting a Step class with my college roommate, we'd hit the dining hall and fuel up. We worked out, so we deserved it, right? Little did I know I was undoing all the good I had done and actually eating way more than I had burned, which was making the scale numbers go even higher. If you need a little workout reward, don't do it with food. Download some new songs on iTunes, pick up a fitness mag, or buy yourself a new top to motivate you to get to the gym.

The Self-Installing Car Seat of Your Dreams Is Now Real
Back in 2013, after a study revealed that four out of five car seats are installed incorrectly, one company announced a breakthrough invention – a self-installing car seat that guaranteed a safe, correct connection every time. It was just a prototype, but now, nearly three years later, that concept is finally becoming a reality for parents everywhere.
"When installed correctly, car seats save lives . . . yet, most times they're not," parenting company 4moms noted on its site. "And there's no easy way to check. We believed it had to be better."
The 4moms infant seat - which was unveiled at the Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas earlier this year and is now finally available for purchase - is the first-ever electronic car seat and one that features robotic technology to actually install itself once the base's anchors are hooked into the vehicle, complete with autoleveling and autotension control. Then, it continuously monitors its status during use, giving moms the confidence every single time they put their baby in the car. If that's not enough assistance, the car seat connects to an app that can recommend the best place to install the seat based on the make and model of your car. It can also track your baby's growth to remind you when to adjust harnesses or move to a convertible car seat.
Like other innovative car seats (namely the Doona stroller hybrid), this one comes at a price. It costs $500 - a steep amount considering it's only for a baby's first year of life. But considering that when the idea was first announced in 2013, 86 percent of readers responded to a poll with serious interest in purchasing one, so it's clearly a technological advance that parents deeply value.
Read on for a closer look at the 4moms self-installing car seat's most noteworthy features and decide for yourself if it's a worthy investment.
Samsung Is Officially Discontinuing the Note 7
You can officially say goodbye to the Galaxy Note 7. Samsung has officially halted production on the Note 7 and will "no longer produce or market" it, according to The New York Times.
The Note 7, which was a promising phone and competitor to the iPhone 7 and 7 Plus, has been plagued with problems since the Summer. After numerous reports of phones overheating and exploding, the company and the United States Consumer Product Safety Commissions (CPSC) recalled the device.
The issue seemed resolved, with Samsung offering customers a new Note 7 without any problems. However, several new reports started arising of the new Note 7s also smoking and exploding as well. Late on Oct. 10, the company decided to halt and end the Note 7 at last. If you own a Note 7, you should turn it off immediately and return it to wherever you bought it.
If you're still interested in another Samsung device, the Galaxy S7 and S7 Edge are perfectly capable replacements. Or, you can also preorder the new Pixel and Pixel XL, the latest phones from Google.
15 Pairs of Blogger-Approved Shoes That Won't Make Your Feet Ache
When we first spot a heel we love on the foot of an It girl or fashion blogger, our first thought is that we want - no, need - it in our own closets. But soon, that lustful feeling fades, and in its place? The reality that those shoes are probably painful and most definitely hard to walk in.
However, there is a silver lining: comfy-cute pairs of sneakers, loafers, and ballet flats that the fashion crowd enjoys just as much. So which styles should you shop in order to dress just like the bloggers who fill your feed? Keep scrolling to find out.
Michelle Obama Is Sending a Powerful Message With This Floral Dress
When Michelle Obama has a powerful message to share, she makes sure that what she's wearing doesn't distract from that. That's why she wore a somewhat simple black and floral printed dress while attending Glamour magazine's Day of the Girl event, where she talked about the importance of education and making it readily available for females around the world. As she shared a bit of her own story and history, revealing she wouldn't be where she is today if it weren't for her schools, her outfit merely complimented her words without stealing the spotlight. Overall, it was a power woman look for sure, and secretly taught us a tip we'll keep with us before heading into our next meeting or interview: don't be afraid to rock something stylish, but make sure it's subtle enough that it doesn't take away from what you're saying. In other words, wear it, don't let it wear you.
Scroll through for more views of Michelle's look straight from Glamour's Facebook Live stream. Then check out the First Lady's casual style, because she's a pro at that, too.
This Is What Kids Have to Say About Trump's "Locker Room Talk"
"Are you both modeling positive and appropriate behaviors for today's youth?" Anderson Cooper asked Donald Trump during Sunday night's presidential debate. "You describe kissing women without consent, grabbing their genitals. You brag that you have sexually assaulted women."
If you watched or read about Sunday's debate, you'll know that Trump's response went like this: "No, I didn't say that at all. I don't think you understood what was said. This was locker room talk. You know, when we have a world where you have ISIS chopping off heads . . . "
Our potential future president has made it clear that most of what he knows how to do is make excuses and change subjects, and as it turns out, our kids are noticing these facts as well. In the above video, a group of kids who have been watching the debates had their own thoughts about Trump's responses, actions, and beliefs.
"I think what he's trying to imply by 'locker room talk' is like, oh it doesn't mean anything, it's casual talk, but he's saying really offensive things. He's using 'locker room talk' as an excuse."
"I don't think that he answered the question at all. I think he just keeps on changing the subject."
"He starts talking about ISIS and all the bad things in the world, but he feels that it's acceptable to be really bad to women and say those things about women."
Watch the rest of the video to hear what else these perceptive young people had to say about Trump's debate performance.
This 25-Year-Old's Instagram Looks Totally Normal, Until You Connect the Dots
Twenty-five-year-old Louise Delage is like many other young women: she spends her Summer at the beach, hits the town with friends, and documents it all on Instagram, of course. Though she joined the social media platform on Aug. 1, she has more than 75,000 followers and counting. At first, most of her followers commented on her lavish lifestyle or looks. However, after some time, her followers came to the startling realization that most of her photos feature alcohol in some way.
Finally, Louise came clean. Well, "Louise" is actually BETC Digital, a Paris-based marketing agency that created the "Like My Addiction" campaign for Addict Aide. The organization and Instagram posts were to raise awareness about alcohol abuse among young people. Over time, the agency took these photos of "Louise" to prove a point about the prevalence and ubiquity of alcohol on social media platforms. To attract more followers, the agency posted three times a day during peak times and used popular hashtags in separate captions.
Needless to say, it worked. The agency recently came forward in a sobering video, shown below, with a caption that read, "Like my addiction." Long before the video, though, many of Louise's followers had already connected the dots and began to realize the common theme. Many of them even expressed feeling concerned for her.
Look ahead for pictures from the powerful project.

A Ranking of the Worst Halloween Candy For Your Teeth
Knowing that a Reese's Peanut Butter Cup takes 734 jumping jacks to burn off may not really phase you, or prevent you from reaching for another. But maybe knowing that those little fun-size treats really do a number on your dental health might make you think twice.
Dr. Holly Halliday, a periodontist, and Dr. Gabriel Mannarino, a dentist, both from Williston Dental Team told POPSUGAR that it's "the most cariogenic foods (ie. the most likely to cause cavities) are the sticky ones." Here's their list of sticky candies from worst to least harmful:
Laffy Taffy
Starburst
Dots
Gummy Bears/Worms
Skittles
Raisinets
Snickers
Milky Way
Twix
Before you go cry into your Jack-o-Lantern, they offered a bit of good news. Better candy options include Kit Kat, Nestle's Crunch, Hershey's Chocolate, M&Ms, Reese's Peanut Butter Cups, and "similar chocolates because they are not as 'sticky' as the ones mentioned above."
But more important than what candy you unwrap is how you eat it and what you do after you're done. Holly says, "It's better to have them all at once than several times throughout the day. When you have them all at once it's just one insult to the teeth, but if you eat them often during the day, you're constantly exposing the teeth to sugar. That constant exposure ultimately weakens the enamel, which is called decalcification. If it continues, the enamel will become cavitated, and you have a cavity!" Holly and Gabe then recommend rinsing the mouth out with water to dilute the sugar, and waiting at 30 minutes to brush your teeth.
Holly adds that it's not only candy that puts your teeth at risk for cavities. "Anything that gets stuck in the grooves of the teeth or in between them and stays there for a long time is more likely to cause a problem." Most people don't think of raisins, dried apricots, dates, fruit leather, and one of the worst offenders - potato chips! - as "cavity-causing," but they are if you eat them often.

10 Genius Makeup Hacks For Women With Hooded Eyelids
What do Taylor Swift, Jennifer Lawrence, and Lauren Bacall have in common, besides all being unequivocally beautiful? There's a distinct idiosyncrasy that they each share: hooded eyes. This feature is characterized by excess skin that folds down from the brow bone and "hoods" part of the eyelid. The result is an alluring, sexy look that exudes confidence and wisdom (think the opposite of doe-eyed).
However, as alluring as hooded eyes - and the women who possess them - can be, they often prove to be a difficult canvas for makeup. That's because your canvas is partially obstructed. Instead of having a flat, spacious eyelid to paint, powder, or line, those with hooded eyes are working with lids that cut into their natural crease.
Not sure if you possess this unique trait? Here's a surefire way to tell: First, looking into a mirror, determine whether you have a crease above your eye. If not, then you have monolid eyes, not hooded eyes. But if you do identify a crease, ask yourself if your crease is hidden when your eyes are wide open. If the answer is yes, then you have hooded eyes.
If you're of this very common category, then you've likely struggled with making bright shadows pop or keeping makeup from smudging, and you've almost definitely thrown your liquid liner across the room while trying to create the perfect cat eye. But this challenging shape has never stopped beauties like Blake Lively or Emma Stone from rocking whatever look their heart desires, so don't let it intimidate you either. With a little dexterity and the right tools, you can turn your hooded canvas into a makeup masterpiece. Read on for our beauty tips for hooded eyes.
12 Bloody Good Things We Already Know About The Walking Dead Season 7
As you're no doubt aware, The Walking Dead's sixth season finale episode left off with quite a cliffhanger.

Although we don't have any official answers about who was at the other end of Lucille just yet, the cast and creators of the show have let slip a few choice details (and some very telling footage) about what we can expect for season seven.

Emily Blunt Explains Why Rachel Isn't American in the Girl on the Train Movie
Anyone who's read The Girl on the Train knows the novel is set in London and its surrounding suburbs, but for the big-screen adaptation, the setting is moved to New York. In turn, while the characters in the book are British, in the film they're American - except for the titular girl on the train, Rachel Watson, played by Emily Blunt. The choice left some fans of the book scratching their heads, especially since Luke Evans and Rebecca Ferguson, who are Welsh and Swedish, respectively, use American accents for their characters in the film. I asked Blunt about the choice during a press day in New York, and apparently making Rachel American was a consideration:
"I was open to doing whatever people wanted, I could've played it either way. But I think that Tate [Taylor, who directed the film] really loved the idea of maintaining the accent. Number one because New York is so cosmopolitan, there's British people everywhere. It was also sort of an ode to the book, which is nice. And Tate liked the idea that how I speak makes me even more isolated, in a strange way. Even more removed from everybody else. Maybe there's something good in that. I think for me, it was helpful because it was the most uninhibited that I was required to be in my entire career, so I didn't want to be weighed down by anything, which you typically are when you don't speak that way normally."

Thought Watching the Debate Was Rough? Try Watching It With a Tween Son in the Room
We were only five minutes into watching the second presidential debate when I started blushing. My husband, my 10-year-old son, and I were sprawled across the sofa after an otherwise rainy and quiet Sunday afternoon. After taking an interest in the presidential election in school, my son asked if he could stay up past his bedtime to watch "at least the first half" with us. I knew what to expect - we all knew what to expect - based on the release of that tape of Donald Trump and TV host Billy Bush having a vile conversation about women, but how can you tell your civic-minded child that he can't watch one of the pillars of our democratic system?
But five minutes in, I was already regretting my decision. Seven months ago I had a similar reaction after watching the Republican debate with my son and listening to Donald Trump discuss the size of his manhood in response to an earlier insinuation by Marco Rubio. But this was already worse. The first question came from an audience member who asked if either of the candidates thought they were modeling appropriate and positive behavior for youth, saying "the last presidential debate could've been rated as MA - mature audiences." You could say that again! It would only be a few minutes before the elephant in the room made its way onto the debate floor.
As Anderson Cooper posed the second question, I knew it had arrived. "We received a lot of questions online, Mr. Trump, about the tape that was released on Friday, as you can imagine," Cooper began. "You called what you said locker room banter. You described kissing women without consent, grabbing their genitals. That is sexual assault. You bragged that you have sexually assaulted women. Do you understand that?"
My eyes immediately darted to my son, who looked confused and uncomfortable. We had discussed the CliffsNotes version of Friday's news but hadn't gone into much detail. How do you explain to your impressionable child that the man laughing about kissing women whether they agree to it or not and grabbing their genitals is running for the highest office in the land and has the support of millions of people?
The answer is you don't. You tell him that the man is a misogynist and explain what that word means. You use the opportunity to begin a much deeper conversation about consent (while sending your 7-year-old to bed). You tell your 10-year-old that you are about to have a mature conversation with him because the news of the day dictates that - a conversation you weren't prepared to have for another few years but will begin now because he needs to know this was not just "locker room banter." You discuss that boys and men must not only respect women in their presence, but defend and champion them when they aren't in the room. And you talk about the importance of consent.
I'll admit that the conversation was not as in depth as I wanted it to be - I was determined to watch the full debate in real time vs. seeing my friends commenting about it on social media - but it was a beginning. About 45 minutes in, as talk moved to taxes and health care, my son grew bored of the debate and asked to change to the football game. We told him it was time for bed and he called it a night.
This morning, he asked what he missed. He specifically wanted to know if Donald Trump "said any other crazy things." My kids know my political beliefs - I wear them proudly on my t-shirts and speak of them often - and they know that some friends and family don't have the same beliefs. But I'm also raising them to know what's right and wrong - not politically, but morally. Unfortunately, this election is providing us with more fodder than I ever could have dreamed about.

Recall Alert: Hold Off on Packing Your Kid a Lunchables
Be careful packing lunches this week!
Kraft Heinz Company has issued a voluntary recall of nearly 1,000 pounds of ready-to-eat Lunchables Ham and American Cracker Stackers packaged lunches due to the labels missing vital allergen information. The product contains wheat and soy, which is normally declared on the label, but this particular batch of meals were misbranded with a label from a Lunchables nachos product. The retail was issued after a costumer complained, but there haven't been any reports of illness as a result of the undeclared allergens.
The affected 3.4 ounce boxes were produced on Sept. 21, 2016 with a "use by" date of Dec. 25, 2016 and production times ranging from 9:13 to 10:00 stamped on the side of the four-compartment plastic container. They were shipped to retail locations in Utah and California.
Costumers who purchased these boxes of Lunchables are urged not to eat them, but to either throw them away or bring them back to the place of purchase for a refund.
This Westworld Theory Will Make You See the Show in a Whole New Light
Two episodes in, and I'm hooked on Westworld. HBO's new show has already given us so many violent delights (see what I did there?), and I'm beyond curious to see what happens next. After all, there has to be more to the plot that what we've seen so far. With its plethora of mysterious characters, strange details, and seemingly purposeful inconsistencies, Westworld has posed so many questions already - making it the perfect show to theorize about. Thus, it should come as no surprise that the internet is buzzing about what might be going on under the surface. Last week, I convinced myself that The Man in Black is secretly a robot. I've jumped ship on that theory, and I'm onto a new one. Spoilers follow!
Several Reddit users (including Where_isJessica_Hyde) are theorizing that the timid character introduced in the second episode, William, is The Man in Black. Remember, The Man in Black claims that he's been coming to the park for 30 years, which means that William's storyline is happening three decades in the past. It sounds crazy, but it might be true.
As Reddit user otter454z points out, the logo that flashes in the station when William arrives is different (and markedly more retro) than the logo we see in the modern-day office where the programmers work.
Furthermore, there's a scene in the premiere when The Man in Black picks up the can for Dolores, but he tells her, "I'm afraid I've got other plans tonight, Dolores." When we see William's first day at the park, he picks up Dolores's can and seems enchanted by her. Could these parallel scenes mean something?
If it's true, it would mean that William is about to go through a truly sinister evolution, and that perhaps he's not as shy as he lets on. While there are certainly holes in the theory, it's one that I'm willing to bet on.
