Let's switch it up...

Breaking up is hard to do, as is finding love. When we're searching for love we're on our best game. And when we find the stranger who gives us the butterflies, we want to put all of our charm and wit on display. So we often come up with the best lines to win over our conquest. But what if we kept that charm going once we realized this love is toxic and dead? There can be some... humorous ways to end relations.


For fun, Redditor u/ginogeneli was wondering what the outcome would be if we compared notes about the the things we say in the beginning and the end of a relationship... they asked... If people used "break-up lines" instead of "pick-up lines", what would some of the best ones be?

Marvel Just Confirmed That Chris Evans Is Returning For 'Avengers: Doomsday'—And Fans Have Mixed Feelings

Folks, once again, continuity is more of a suggestion than a rule in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Marvel has officially confirmed that Chris Evans is returning as Steve Rogers in Avengers: Doomsday, and the internet has responded exactly how you’d expect: screaming, celebrating, arguing, and a very justified side-eye toward how Sam Wilson keeps getting treated.

The confirmation comes via a teaser now playing exclusively in theaters ahead of Avatar: Fire and Ash. There is no official online release, despite leaks circulating. If you didn’t catch it on the big screen, Marvel’s response is essentially: sorry, guess you had to be there.
