If you didn't pay much attention during history or hate reading dumb books, these memes might help you seem smarter. They won't help you write an award-winning essay, but they might help you in random conversation or when you're trying to impress someone who is only moderately intelligent. So who said memes have no educational value?
"UNDER" is an innovative project imagined by the architects of the studio Snøhetta, which should be installed in the south of Norway, near the village of Båly. This fascinating concrete structure will be the first underwater restaurant in Europe, but also an artificial reef for the study and protection of marine life. The underwater restaurant will include a dining room, immersed 5m below the surface and opening on the North Sea with a massive acrylic glass. Via: UFUNK

The results are in, and these exam questions deserve an A+. Leave it to the spicy, creative minds of Twitter users to hatch up some hilarious hypothetical questions for future exams about that ongoing Brexit saga. Can you picture it? A day in the future when kids sit down to answer that imperative question regarding how Brexit shook out. Do you think these replies are anywhere close to being on the mark? Who's to say.
Before the backlash ensues about running a good 'ol green text story that may or may (most likely) not be entirely true, just hold your horses and appreciate the creativity evident in this sexually depraved little tale. If the dude's goal was to bring back the kind of glory stories that'd keep his friends entertained long into their older years, than mission accomplished. Can't imagine this is what his dad had in mind for his son when he encouraged him to get out and explore the world though.
Every city has it's own personality. The winding alleyways, crowded streets, tree-lined rivers and bustling markets of each city feel like they're the first of their kind. There's nothing like eating a bagel in New York, sipping tea in Istanbul, watching the road crossings in Tokyo, eating macaroons in Paris, or waiting for a herd of cows to cross the road in Delhi.
Every city is recognizable when photographed from street level - but what about from an aerial view? This collection of fifteen aerial photos give you a completely new and unexpected perspective of the cities we all love. Enjoy exploring, travelers!

Now this is a pipeline worth fighting for.
As oil pipelines threaten the drinking water and land of the Native Americans here in the states, pipelines in Belgium are threatening sobriety. The world’s first legal beer pipeline in Bruges, Belgium carries 1,000 gallons, the equivalent of 12,000 bottles, of beer an hour from the brewery to the bottling planet two miles away.
This is not the first beer pipeline. There was at least one illegal one operating during Prohibition, in which a 6,000-foot hose was found under the streets of Yonkers, NY in 1930.
This perfectly legal pipeline, however, starts at Halve Maan beer brewery, one of the country’s oldest. It opened in 1856, and thanks to a crowdfunded campaign, the brewery was launched into the 21st century with a brand-new beer pipeline.
According to Atlas Obscura, “The 500+ donors received a priceless thank you gift: free beer for life. Today, visitors can glimpse a section of the pipeline through a transparent manhole cover cut into the cobblestone street.”
If you aren't familiar with the historic Brexit vote that's about to take place, here's the gist: British voters will soon decide if they want the United Kingdom to remain in or leave the European Union. It's kind of a big deal, but who cares what humans think, right? The cats have spoken and they are very much against "the British exit".
When Lydia Coutré took a trip to study abroad in Italy she took along some digital versions of her mom's old vacation slides. She matched up locations and camera shots to recreate the same photos her mother took 30 years ago. Now she's got side by side snapshots of how things have changed since then.

Remember the long lines and human stampedes for Furby and Cabbage Patch Dolls in the '90s?
Well, this is sort of like that. But for cheaply-made clothing.
Balmain for H&M's Collection, promoted by Kylie Jenner, dropped today across the globe and was sold out in many stores within seconds. Videos showing the chaos starting popping up all over the Internet.
Shoppers in Paris can be seen above sprinting their way through the store, ripping clothes from mannequins.
In Croatia, people got pushy.
And Istanbul was a total mess.
Oh, and the website crashed when the line went on sale this morning.
Hug your family tight tonight, people of the world. There is no more Balmain. The end is near.
Mount Etna, Europe's most active volcano, erupted sending ash and chunks of lava rock down on the Northeastern part of Sicily over the weekend.
