An invitation from her sister to go for an impromptu walk in the park somehow led to this woman tossing hot chocolate on her boyfriend as he proposed.
I have always said that if someone proposes to me, I need it to be intimate and low-key. While I love attention and would never say no to getting on a stage, something as lovely as getting engaged needn’t involve anyone beyond me and my partner. It certainly doesn’t have to be a public affair. Nothing stresses me out more than someone proposing on a big screen at a sporting event, or perhaps involving several strangers in some sort of coordinated dance. That’s a no from me, dawg!

For one woman who I’m calling Alice, a proposal eight months into her relationship wasn’t even the most shocking thing about that experience. How did hot chocolate go from her cup to her boyfriend’s body where it absolutely doesn’t belong? Let’s say “I do” to this wacky tale.

She ruined her proposal and disfigured her boyfriend. What a day!
Alice, who goes by @huge.pear on TikTok, had zero plans of taking this story to social media but her friends encouraged her to do so. Obviously they saw the potential for this situation to go viral.
It all happened when Alice was but a sprig of a lass at 22. I immediately begin folding into myself because I don’t think people should get married before their brains are fully developed, but i’m silly like that. The fact that Alice and her boyfriend had only been dating for eight months only made me cringe harder. Had they even farted in front of each other yet?

“I wasn’t expecting to get proposed to,” explained Alice. “It wasn’t one of those ‘when you know, you know’” type deals. However, it was a pretty good relationship. Again I say, this is not enough. The bar is so low it’s fallen into one of Dante’s circles of h—.

One day seemingly out of nowhere, Alice’s sister was desperate for a stroll in the park. How very Victorian of her. Alice was suspicious, but who could have predicted a proposal was coming down the pipeline. I’ve had food in my refrigerator longer than this relationship. Sure the food was gross, but it was in there holding on for dear life.
Before getting to the park, they stopped at a Starbucks. I assume this park had public restrooms because you wouldn’t catch me getting coffee or a hot chocolate without an exit strategy. I have now referenced farts and poops. That’s real relationship stuff!

Because it was autumn and there was a crispness to the air, Alice got an extra hot, hot chocolate. “I wanted to warm my hands because we were going to the park.” This all checks out.

At this point, Alice’s sister claims she wants to film a video of her walking with the hot chocolate. This is when my spidey sense would start tingling. Unless we’re doing something for comedy purposes, I’m immediately suspicious. Actually if this was a Hallmark movie, I wouldn’t question a thing.
Suddenly, Alice encounters a man crouching behind a bush that she has just run into while walking backwards. Because she’s a woman in the world, Alice instinctively threw her entire cup of piping-hot hot chocolate onto his face.

“I heard this horrible screaming and I just ran,” Alice says mere inches from her camera. When her sister didn’t follow suit, Alice “circled back” to make sure everything was OK. What she found was her sister bent over this poor man who was, you guessed it, Alice’s boyfriend.

I shouldn’t laugh but Alice’s description of this scene is accidentally funny. “He’s screaming. She’s crying,” she says. Alice didn’t realize who it wasn’t until she saw this poor fella’s shoes. Again, I don’t to mean to laugh but he has what she calls his “staple shoes.” I should get a pair of signature shoes in the event of an emergency.
Somehow Alice ended up driving to the hospital because her sister was “too freaked out.” And guess what, Alice is still mad at her about that. The boyfriend ended up requiring multiple skin grafts, and as for the proposal, Alice said no. “I was always going to say no,” she assures viewers. She stuck out through his recovery but was pretty sure things could never be the same.
A TikToker recalled a strange interaction with a restaurant customer, where the guest asks the host and waitress for $50 to cover his dinner bill.

On TikTok, user @sassyserver0529, whose real name is Steph Carlisle, uses the platform to share horror stories from her time working in the restaurant industry. Needless to say, her tales are very bizarre.

In a TikTok video posted on Sept. 24, 2023, Steph recalled a time when a guest asked the host and the waitress for $50 to cover their bill. The interaction with the customer named Mr. Williams started innocently enough. Here’s what went down.

The customer, Mr. Williams, entered and the restaurant the host approached him like normal. The host asked the man if he would be dining as a party of two, but the man suggested he was meeting another couple for dinner at the restaurant. “We’re meeting another couple here and I fully intend on them paying the tab tonight. But should they not, can you spot me $50?” the customer asked. Adding, “I’m dead serious. Money has been really tight lately. Can you spot me the $50 just in case?”

An hour into the meal, Mr. Williams asked the host a second time to borrow $50 but she denied his request. “I do not have $50 I can spot you,” the host said. “If money has been tight then please don’t dine out.” Mr. Williams then said he would ask the waitress to lend him the money, but the meal was later paid for by the other couple. The ordeal has gotten TikTokers up in arms, as most are siding with the restaurant workers who refused to let Mr. Williams borrow $50.

The internet agrees that Mr. Williams should pay his own bill.
Most of the internet seems to agree that Mr. Williams should be responsible for his own restaurant bill. The video has garnered more than 10,000 views, as TikTokers are shocked that Mr. Williams would ask employees at the restaurant he was eating at for $50.

And while Mr. Williams was a regular at the establishment, others pointed out that he appeared to be overly comfortable with the staff at the restaurant.

Meanwhile, others made their point very clear, suggesting that Mr. Williams should avoid dining at restaurants if he can’t pay the bill. Steph even replied to a commenter and explained that Mr. Williams’s request was “the most outlandish thing anyone has ever asked.”

And of course, there was one person who wanted to know why Steph didn’t lend Mr. Williams $50. Asking, “So why didn’t ya?” Really? What would this person do if they were put in the same situation?

Other servers have gotten even stranger requests from customers.
Steph isn’t the first restaurant employee to receive a strange request from a customer. In June, TikToker Mitchell Todd (who goes by @mitchii.moo on the platform) recalled a weird encounter with a customer. The incident occurred during a brunch shift at the restaurant where Mitchell works. The customer, who Mitchell said was “extremely attractive,” was polite at first. Mitchel admits to being flirty with the customer during their interaction, which may have prompted the strange request.

“He’s like ‘I have a weird request. I was wondering if you could spit in my food?’” the man asked. Mitchell denied the man’s request and explained that it was against company policy to spit on someone’s food. Mitchell suggested that the man ask the restaurant manager if the spitting would be OK, and the manager obliged.
A woman describes being on a Carnival cruise during an unexpected and unexplained blackout and there may be a good reason for this.
If you ever needed another reason not to take a vacation on a cruise, then one woman’s TikTok about a blackout in the middle of the ocean may do it for you. A user by the name of @nieceeb41 shared a video in which she says she and her travel companions “experienced a blackout” with no warning and no information on what was happening in the moment.

I am in the camp of preferring my vacations on land, where I have the ability to leave if there is an emergency. So, to hear of a Carnival Horizon cruise stopping in the middle of the ocean and cutting all power is a literal nightmare. In her video, the TikTok user doesn’t explain why the cruise blackout happened, but she does give a firsthand account of what it was like.

A Carnival cruise’s blackout caused panic among the guests.
In her video, the creator explains that she and the other guests aboard a Carnival Horizon cruise, which had set sail for Aruba, were covered in almost complete darkness. She says that low emergency lights were turned on in the hallways, but that, without warning from a captain or any staff, the power cut off and she and other guests aboard the ship had no clue what happened. Again I say, literal nightmare.
“Tonight, just a few seconds ago, we experienced a blackout, a complete blackout,” she says in the TikTok. “And guess what? Nobody was explaining anything, we got no announcement, no nothing. People in the hallway [were] confused, they had emergency lights on at the bottom [of the hallway walls]… Nobody knows nothing. What is going on, Carnival?”

If this were a standard power outage, apparently the actual danger is minimal. Cruise ships, including those owned by Carnival, are equipped with high-powered generators. They can turn power back on for lighting, get elevators back up and running, keep communication lines open, and even power the engines.

But, because the TikToker doesn’t explain why the blackout happened on the Carnival cruise in the video or any videos after it, we don’t have any answers as to what happened or how things progressed once the staff inevitably informed the guests what was going on. Luckily, other people who have been on cruises or even worked on them have some ideas about why there was an unexplained blackout on the ship.
Cruises are often in danger of pirates on the open ocean.
Most of the comments under the TikTok video claim that the cruise ship likely went dark and, therefore, silent in the middle of the ocean because of pirates. If a smaller ship was spotted nearby, it would make sense for the ship to cut power at night and turn off the sounds that pirates could detect.

“If they announced [a blackout], the pirates would hear them,” one user commented. “Keep an open mind. Most ships don’t just have a blackout.”

Another person agreed, “Sounds like they saw pirates out there… They are indeed out there and the ships have protocols for them.”
While some of the comments explain that “pirates are real,” others show that people who prefer not to go on cruises are happily justified in their decisions. And with no answers about the blackout and the danger of pirates on the ocean, you can have your cruises.

There is something to be said about people being attracted to a person’s sense of humor. Whenever people list off what they’d like in a life partner, many times a “sense of humor” or “funny” is at the top of the list for most desired qualities.
That’s why it makes so much sense that famous comedians have dated some of the most beautiful Hollywood actors and models. Funny guy David Spade is no exception to that. David was one of the most well-known comedians in the 1990s after he first appeared on Saturday Night Live. David’s successful and lengthy career has helped him to earn a net worth estimated at $40 million, but does he have a wife to share his fortune with? Has David ever been married?

He told The New York Times, “It’s very hard for me, for various reasons, which we won’t get into. Too much data, too many gigabytes. But I have been trying to do that. I’ve known someone for a long time. I’ve been trying to make something work.”
David Spade’s list of ex-girlfriends is long and blonde.
David has dated numerous actors and celebrities, including Heather Locklear, Lara Flynn Boyle, Julie Bowen, Teri Hatcher, and Naya Rivera, just to name a few. E!

In 2016, David was seen out with Baywatch‘s Charlotte McKinney. Their outing caused a lot of speculation and rumors, but nothing was confirmed. A few years later, during the COVID-19 pandemic, he admitted that he was still single.

David spilled his true feelings about fatherhood in his tell-all book.
David explained more about his dad and wrote, “This one’s going to be a little tricky — this is a chapter about my dad, and the way that it fits into this audiobook is I’m a dad now. And the difference – and why it caused some complications with my own dad — is because he was sort of a ne’er-do-well, which is putting it mildly. I think f–k up is more on the nose.”

He continued, “So when I had [Harper], I got this new tidal wave of resentment towards my dad because of his irresponsible behavior and manipulative mean streak. So I stopped talking to him.”
It’s still a mystery as to if David will settle down with anyone, but he remains a dedicated father and one of the best comedians in his craft. Fans will just have to wait and see.
