    (Not asking you to violate your privacy at all. This could even be something over the top and completely made up on Biographics and aired on April 1 if you want to. )

      It does take a while. This is actually pretty fast growing, all things considered :).
      I normally expect things to take about six months (from date regular content began - so Jan 1 this year) before any serious lift from the algorithm starts happening.
      But it can take a year or more.
      We made TIFO videos for 18 months before anything started happening on that channel, and then one day we just started adding 25k subs a day. That was pretty nuts.

    I can actually give you the secret to staying awake and alert in class...what to eat for breakfast: have a couple of hard boiled eggs, some plain carrot or celery sticks, a fresh orange, and small handful of some kind of seed or nut (pumpkin seeds, sunflower seeds, almonds, or hazelnuts are my recommendations). It might sound a bit boring to have it a lot, but it's got damn near everything you need micronutrient-wise, fiber for a longer full feeling, and protein to backup the starch and sugar from the fruit and veggies. It wasn't until my senior year of high school that I finally started eating something aside from cereal, bagels, or nothing for breakfast before school. It made such a giant difference...seriously. That was 15 years ago, and I'm never having kids, so I pass it on to you who may be a student, or may be a parent with school-aged kids. From a different perspective of health and weight loss, just keeping hard-boiled eggs around as a fulfilling replacement snack for that bag of chips or candy bar you'd normally reach for will be great at avoiding unnecessary calories and indigestion.

      there is actually some sense in making specific products for men and women. Not just the perfumes/scents can be differentiated, but men and women do tend to have different skin types for example.
      That said, it's largely a hoax, just put the same product in 3 different bottles, green one that's unisex, blue one for men, and pink for women, price the pink and blue 50% up, add some marketing and all 3 fly out of the shop.

    I'd love to see a video about the Bread pricing scandal in Canada a couple years ago. The biggest grocery chain in Canada was found guilty in manipulating prices resulting in bread being sold at significant mark up. Loblaws (Sobeys/Safeway/No Frills/The Real Canadian Superstore etc) was forced to reimburse $25 (in the form of a gift card) to every canadian over the age of 18 that submitted their name.

      QB Livingstone oh I PROMISE you, as a broke university student with the corresponding amount of dignity, I was (still am tbh) *more* than willing to sign my life away for $25! Sadly, I only had one piece of ID to show at my local Superstore. That’s it! That was the only thing stopping me! I’m still salty about it and I graduate this year
      But I would like a video about the whole thing too! I had never realized it was even possible to have a bread oligarchy, let alone one that lasted 20 years where retailers were continuously intimidated into changing their prices to meet Loblaws’ demands. I actually wouldn’t mind a video about the Canadian dairy industry either, tbh - on one hand, we keep out the crap that passes for American milk but on the other hand you can’t find a block of Irish Kerrygold butter in Canada to save your life (and trust me, the taste of european dairy products is a religious experience unto itself). I’d settle for either! (and perhaps hopefully get some closure on the whole bread thing haha)

If you live in a big city, you might be able to get a family run ethnic store (or british specialty/import store) to order it in for you.

    There are some medical uses for chiropractor technics. I had an issue when I was 14 that caused me to lose my balance along with my sight and hearing for up to a minute anytime my back was stretched. My optometrist panicked because it was similar symptoms to his wife who died when the cyst on her brain stem that caused the symptoms ruptured. While we were waiting on the neurologist at Primary Children's Hospital to set up the appointments for a MRI, I had to go to my regular doctor for a sinus infection and he asked us about the records request. After we told him what was happening he suggested it could be that I just needed a spinal adjustment. He had trained in chiropractor technics since he liked to learn a wide variety of specialties, and after he adjusted my spine all symptoms went away. Anytime they come back I have to have my spine readjusted because it will get so out of whack that basically my vertebrae will pinch all the nerves in my spine causing them to stop working until they become un-pinched.

Chiropractics itself isn't a load of bunk. What is is using it to "cure" cancer or something. But it does help tremendously with a lot of pain issues. Pinched nerve? You can see a chiro and likely get quick relief, or you can pop pills and hope the pain eventually stops on its own. Bones really do get out of alignment. Why do you think you feel better when an achy spot in your back pops?

      Chiropractors have no such regulation. Admittedly extreme cases, but people have come in with pneumothoraces, nerve palsies or even permanent nerve damage, strokes from neck manipulations and then general musculoskeletal injuries.

So much time and money spent on useless products and regimens and even “acne-reducing” makeup. First break came when a dermatologist prescribed a topical and an antibiotic. Drastic difference. Took the pills for years and my skin was still pretty decent after I stopped taking them. Hormonal acne came back in a bad way with birth control and the only things that have helped are staying away from sugar as much as I can, not wearing powder or foundation (unless I’ve got a party or wedding or whatever), taking an acne supplement I found on Amazon, and being as gentle with my skin as possible.

    I have MS and arthritis and I have an active release chiropractor who has helped me immensely and has been through just as much schooling as a doctor, she is also not expensive only 50$ per visit. There are plenty of chiropractors who are the real deal you go to them when you throw your back out or neck out and they literally fix the whole damn thing by popping it back into place, when I used to dance semi competitively in my teens I never would've made it without my regular chiropractor back then, whereas active release chiropractors do all of that plus break down scar tissue. Of course you can find fake or non reputable chiropractors but same goes with many such jobs and they do receive years of training and schooling it's basically like saying a dentist isn't a medical doctor bcz they didn't go to med school....yet they went to the appropriate school to do what they're doing and it is in the medical profession. As long as you do your research, chiropractors are incredibly helpful and my entire family is made up of doctors and nurses who all also receive chiropractic treatment as needed.

    The "Hottest Back to School" ads. The Cabin Crew calendar and 'Red Hot Fares & Crew' ads.
    Being sued by Nicolas Sarkozy, Sabena Air over the Manneken Pis ad, Multiple ads banned by the Advertising Standards Agency for misleading claims. Most recently the 'Greenest Airline' claim and the "Book to the Sun" that featured locations that were hitting 10 degrees celsius at the time of year.
    Plus the marketing stunts such as: vertical seats, pay to use toilets and the fact that they can make or break an airport, with the pressure they place on them to reduce landing and passenger fees.
    Bonus Fact: Michael O'Leary has a taxi license and hired taxi driver for his Bentley, so they can drive in the bus lanes to Dublin Airport, from his home in Mullingar. He's been doing this since 2003. It's all above board as his trips are metered.
    Bonus Fact 2: Ryanair did really well out of 9/11, yep that 9/11, as they were able to get a massive bulk discount from Boeing, with deliveries beginning in 2005, the year they really started to expand everywhere.
