Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. via Nameless.tv

I make it a habit to travel with nice pajamas that I don't mind having other people see.
One reason why is because years ago on a business trip to St. Louis, Missouri, one of the other hotels near where we were staying had a minor fire in the middle of the night.
The news was filled with pictures and video of people standing on the sidewalk outside the hotel in various stages of dress and undress. Raggedy drawers, stained t-shirts, and many in just towels or a bed sheet.
Nope!
If I'm going to be on camera, I'm going to look presentable. Nice pajamas for all hotel stays for me.
Reddit user Low_Theme_5278 asked:
"People who sleep naked, when has it ever backfired?"
"Forgot to lock my front door. I lived in an apartment complex across the street from a bar. Air conditioning was on the fritz, so I slept naked and sheetless."
" Woke up to some lady screaming at me."
"Turns out she lived upstairs and was too drunk to realize she was on the wrong floor and just barged into my apartment, beelined to the bedroom and turned on the lights."
"Once she stopped screaming and let me talk, she realized she was in the wrong place and left. I spent a bit winding down from whatever the heck that was and then went back to sleep."
"Later she apologized to me and somehow it wasnt weird? We were reasonably amicable neighbors after that."

"Apartment building caught on fire. I had just enough time to grab my spouse's robe (which was missing the tie) and run outside with an infant and toddler.
"News crew showed up."
"My kids are trying to crawl into my robe because they're scared. Definitely flashed more people that day than I would have liked."
~ garbagegoat
"Was sleeping in the nude during university and a burglar came in. He didn’t think anyone was home because it was spring break, but I had stayed."
"He opened my door, saw me, apologized, then took a bag of cookies I had and my roommate's Nikes. I couldn’t run after him because, well, I was naked."

"Back in my church youth group going days, they had this tradition where they would drive to the new kids' houses and 'kidnap' them in the morning, throwing them in the church van with all the other kids, and take us to a nice homemade breakfast together."
"Well, middle school me had no idea about this tradition, and was rather shocked when I woke up to 8 of my peers, my youth pastor, and my mom all circled around my bed throwing off my covers."
"I still sleep naked today."

"During an earthquake, I ran out of the house naked."
"No one seemed to notice as they were more concerned about themselves. And the earthquake."
~ abcohen916
"While on tour with a show, I got up in the middle of the night to use the bathroom. Half asleep, I made my way to the bathroom."
"It wasn’t until I heard the click of the door behind me that I realized I had just stepped out into the hallway. I locked myself out of the hotel room because I had followed our previous hotel's layout."
"Thankfully, it was the dead of night, and the only person I had to face was the front desk clerk, who didn’t laugh too hard."
~ createch
"Got our house broken into and held at gunpoint."
"Yup, definitely worse with your d*ck out."
~ ND-98
"Got bitten on my penis by a spider while asleep. Nothing major, just a big red lump for a few days."
"I should’ve never told my mates, though… ‘Spider Dick’ caught on very quickly."
~ BigBoy-LoyLoy
"Did you start shooting webs?"
~ here4astolfo
"I used to sleepwalk all of the time, especially after drinking. One night I wandered out of my room and into my roommate (and also brother’s) room."
"I flipped the lights on and proceeded to take a leak directly onto his floor and in his shoe."
"After learning about what I had done, apologizing, and buying him new shoes, he let me know the only reason he didn’t get up and physically stop me was because he was sleeping naked, too."
"Welp, it backfired on both of us that night."
~ Ok-Growth4134
"My high school for marching band would wake you up really early to get doughnuts before band practice. They had to stop it because originally they called it 'kidnapping', and a family whose first language wasn't English freaked the hell out. "
"I digress, though."
"Not me, but this one gal, nude sleeper like the rest of yall. It was her turn to get kidnapped by the band. She also slept with a knife, just in case. She had no idea what was coming."
"So I don't think anyone was expecting to wake up this petite girl, only for her to spring out of bed brandishing a knife at them while in the nude."
~ Admirable_Ad8900
"New kitten decided the dangling bit was a toy..."
"Not a fun way to wake up."
~ Synisterintent
"Not as bad as 'full-grown, fully clawed cat makes leap from floor directly to crotch'. Hell of a way to wake up."
~ dangerbearNL
"I had my morning tent pounced on with all four paws wrapped around it in a death grip with a chomp on the tip."
"In all his years with me, that was the only time he ever scratched me or bit me."
~ H8erRaider
"One time I woke up in the middle of the night to our infant child crying. I got up to take care of the baby, and as I pass the stairwell, I see my mother-in-law watching me walk by. I was too tired to care."
~ BandDirector17
"We had a conversation with my mother-in-law when she came to help with our infant for this exact reason. 'Look, we’re all exhausted. We know we’re going to see sides of each other we haven’t seen. Let’s just roll with it'."
~ TactusThanatus00
"I stayed inside my house during an earthquake because I sleep naked."
"I didn’t have any clothes at hand when it started, so I decided I'd rather die under a pile of rubble than run outside in front of all my neighbors naked, even though my parents were shouting at me to get out of the house."
~ Cautious-Mistake-919
"Locked my self out of my hotel room by going through the wrong in Scotland. Luckily I found a small towel outside a room to cover my bits."
"The guy at the front desk goes in a very strong Scottish accent, 'Och dinnae worry, I’ve seen a lot more with a lot less'."
~ BCNacct
"Heard the front door close, and whispering then footsteps coming up the stairs. Woke up and thought, f*ck it—nothing will be more scary to a robber than a big naked man running at them to bash their head in."
"Waited for them to reach the top of the stairs, whipped the bedroom door open and ran naked with my fist raised back, straight at my sister-in-law."
"She screamed, 'What the f*ck are you doing!' I stopped and yelled, 'What the f*ck are you doing!' She screamed, 'Dropping your daughter off, she had a nightmare. Can you cover your junk!'."
"I had forgotten that my daughter was having a sleepover at her Auntie's place, and this was a possibility. We all laughed."
"I slinked back into the bedroom, and my wife (in hysterics) took over while I quickly dressed myself."

Do you or would you ever sleep nude? Why or why not? Any mishaps because of sleeping au naturel?
On Tuesday, Kate Shaw, law professor at the University of Pennsylvania, testified before a Senate Judiciary subcommittee hearing on the role of the federal court system.
The Republican majority focused primarily on federal judges issuing nationwide injunctions that block the unconstitutional executive orders of MAGA Republican President Donald Trump and the Trump administration's illegal or unconstitutional actions.
Asked about the role of the Judicial branch, Shaw stated:
"I think if the Constitution is committed to a single principle, it is limits on power. I worry that we are on a path toward few, if any, meaningful limits on the President."
But Missouri MAGA Republican Senator Josh Hawley pushed back, stating Trump's power should be unlimited. Hawley sang a very different tune when Democratic President Joe Biden was in office.
Hawley claimed the courts were biased against Trump and Republicans. He shared an Axios graphic showing 64 injunctions against Trump in his first term, far more than Democratic Presidents Barack Obama and Joe Biden.
But Hawley conveniently ignored the number of injunctions issued against Republican Presidents George H. W. Bush and George W. Bush, which are comparable to the Democrats and far fewer than Trump.
Pointing to his visual reference, Hawley asked:
"You don’t think it’s a little bit anomalous?"
Professor Shaw had a more plausible explanation than bias though, saying:
"A very plausible explanation, Senator, you have to consider is that he is engaged in much more lawless activity than other Presidents, right? You must concede that is a possibility."
You can watch the moment here:
People agreed with Shaw's assessment and expressed their thoughts about Hawley.

Shaw later stated:
"I think a system in which there are no constraints on the President is a very dangerous system."
If Hawley is going to continue running away from the truth, he probably shouldn't do it in front of an expert who can easily catch him.
But given Hawley's history of running away, he's unlikely to learn from his missteps.
The time of year has come for major celebrations, especially among families with graduates in their midst.
For those who want to throw a party to celebrate, they have to prepare one of the central features: a cake.
Mom and TikToker @joyfullykrisandra had ordered a cake four weeks prior to her son's graduation from a small local bakery. Though she hadn't seen their sheet cake designs in person, she'd seen photos online and thought they would be a good choice.
But after spending over $4,000 on her son's graduation party, she showed up at the bakery ready to pick up the cake before the party and was greeted with a poorly prepared and sloppy design that wasn't even in her son's school colors.
She went out to her car and cried while calling her husband and also checking back over the email she'd sent the bakery, thinking that she had been clear about what she wanted.
After her husband encouraged her to do so, she decided to go back inside to get some clarification about what happened and to return the cake. But when the manager spoke to her, they challenged her, saying the bakery staff could not "read her mind."
But referring back to the email she'd sent the bakery, the TikToker still felt that her notes were pretty clear.
@joyfullykrisandra
Fortunately, she was able to go to Costco, and within an hour, she had placed the order and received two sheet cakes that looked significantly better than the one she'd ordered four weeks previously.
You can watch the video here:
@joyfullykrisandra #greenscreen Who on gods green earth would have accepted that cake?? Lmk?! #cake #graduation #smallbusiness #badbusiness
Fellow TikTokers theorized that a birthday cake had been wrongfully repurposed for this occasion.

No business can execute its work perfectly 100% of the time, and everyone makes mistakes. But it genuinely sounds like the bakery forgot about the order, or reused a cake that had been rejected by another customer, so that they wouldn't have to waste product.
No matter what the truth of the matter was, they should have at least been willing to cancel the order and refund the money to the mom so that she could use the money elsewhere.
There are a few "roommate etiquette" rules we should all be able to agree to: don't use or take something that doesn't belong to you, at least without asking; don't eat your roommate's food; and honestly, don't touch their food, especially with your bare hands.
A leading rule, however, should be: If you break something that belongs to your roommate, you should replace it.
But TikToker @tallertoddlers did not seem to understand those rules as she began to film herself ranting about the extravagant item her roommate had recently acquired.
As she opened the fridge, the TikTok vented:
"I just want you to imagine how it felt opening the fridge to get some s**tty leftovers and finding this..."
She then pulled out a large chocolate shaped like a purse that her roommate had received from a guy who really liked her on their first date. It was a Louis Vuitton chocolate purse, valued at $249.
The TikToker held up the purse with a smug look on her face. She was about to vent about what the item was when the handle snapped, and the body of the chocolate purse dropped to the floor, shattering everywhere.
The TikToker's mouth was wide open, and she repeatedly glanced back at herself in the camera, probably hoping what had just happened had not actually just happened.
She repeated:
"Oh my god, oh my god. I just broke the purse. I just broke the chocolate purse."
You can watch the video here:
@tallertoddlers I just broke the chocolate purse. #funny #20s #louisvuitton #nyc
Fellow TikTokers were angry on her roommate's behalf, demanding that she fix her mistake.

To add insult to injury, the TikToker then invited her friend, who was staying with the two roommates for a few days, to taste test the chocolate Louis Vuitton bag, including the center filling, which she claimed had a "hazelnutty flavor."
You can watch the second video here:
@tallertoddlers part three is coming soon xx #louisvuitton #chocolatepurse #tallertoddlers
This only served to make fellow TikTokers even angrier than before.

A few days later, the TikToker claimed to "apologize" to her roommate for breaking the chocolate bag by buying her a simple cake with white frosting.
The frosted writing on the cake read:
"This is not a Louis Vuitton cake. But HBD!"
She claimed that her roommate forgave her for the incident, and her roommate appeared to laugh in the video when she saw the cake.
You can watch the third video here:
@tallertoddlers The cake is chocolate flavored 🍰#louisvuitton #birthday #nyc #chocolatepurse
Fellow TikTokers were not impressed by the "replacement" cake.

Mistakes do happen, and there are other reasons, like buying new groceries or reorganizing the fridge, that might have led the TikToker to touch her roommate's chocolate purse.
But using the incident for views, eating the chocolate herself, and not even buying her roommate a suitable replacement screams of jealousy and petty revenge, not friendship.
Millennials everywhere who weren't at a recent Savannah Bananas game will be sent into a nostalgic spiral when they see the video of Patrick Renna, better known as Ham Porter or "The Great Hambino" in the 1993 film The Sandlot, stepping up to bat.
The Savannah Bananas provide the perfect interactive baseball game experience for fans and families, and inviting well-known personalities is just part of their repertoire.
But inviting someone like Renna to the batter's box is almost too iconic to handle.

As he walked up from the bench, he was introduced:
"Coming to bat, the Great Hambino! Ham Porter!"
He raised his helmet up over his head to the screams of the crowd, and when he stepped up to the plate, he did his iconic stance from The Sandlot, pointing one finger out to the crowd, implying a homerun that Babe Ruth would be proud of.
You can watch the magic moment here:
@thesavbananas The Great Hambino hitting for your Savannah Bananas😎 #sandlot #nostalgia #savannahbananas #bananaball #foryou #baseball
The first pitch was a fastball. He missed and called out the nostalgic line:
"Hey! This is baseball, not tennis!"
After missing the second one, he called out another line:
"You call that the heater?!"

Renna finally hit the third pitch, a shallow right clip, which was easily caught by an outfielder. Though he didn't get a chance to run the bases, the team gathered around him in appreciation, and the crowd went wild.
Twitter (X) users could not get over the iconic moment.
@patrickrenna had a great Instagram and tiktok presence. Dude is really funny.

Perhaps most importantly, it was a moment for the record books for Patrick Renna, too.

Sure, fans would have loved to see Renna hit a home run and slowly trot the bases while pointing to the horizon as he did in the film. But it was still awesome to see him out there again!
