The Best, Top And Craziest World Records

Considering the weekend left me with some extra free time on my hands, I did some research on some of the craziest, most astonishing, and out-there world records that have been accomplished. Many left me laughing or shaking my head in awe of the lengths of diligence someone went to in order to accomplish this variety of records. I decided to gather some of my favorite top world records I came across, and pair a picture and short description with each one.

The largest sushi mosaic made:

A total of 20,647 sushi pieces were put together into a mosaic in Hong Kong January 8, 20 14. The sushi mosaic covered a 37-square-meter space.

The largest human peace sign:



October 6, 2015, in New York City’s Central Park thousands of people gathered to celebrate John Lennon’s 75th anniversary by making the biggest peace sign.

The biggest cup of cappuccino:



In Moscow Russia, on March 25, 2004, a group of people attempted to make the largest cup of cappuccino, with a cup weighing 50kg and standing at a height of 45cm tall.

Being run over by the most Jeeps:



In Hungary on October 21, 2012 a man by the name of Attila Banyai was run over by a Jeep five times to beat the world record.

Most naked riders on a roller coaster:



In southeast England on August 8, 2010 there were 102 naked riders that rode a roller coaster to beat the record.

World's largest suitcase created:



In China during 2006, it was certified that the world's largest suitcase had been created. The suitcase is roughly 6 feet tall.

Most people simultaneously hula-hooping:

In February 2013, on the outskirts of Bangkok, 4,483 people hula-hooped for seven minutes.

Hopefully, these outlandish, crazy, and out-of-the-box world records that have been broken left you laughing or feeling amazed. I know I felt both for all of these! But who knows what the creative minds and future hold for more world records being broken. I am excited to see!

7 Ways to Make Your Language More Transgender and Nonbinary Inclusive

With more people becoming aware of transgender and non-binary people, there have been a lot of questions circulating online and elsewhere about how to be more inclusive. Language is very important in making a space safer for trans and non-binary individuals. With language, there is an established and built-in measure of whether a place could be safe or unsafe. If the wrong language is used, the place is unsafe and shows a lack of education on trans and non-binary issues. With the right language and education, there can be more safe spaces for trans and non-binary people to exist without feeling the need to hide their identities or feel threatened for merely existing.

Blair Waldorf
Stop Hollywood

For those of you who have watched "Gossip Girl" before (and maybe more than just once), you know how important of a character Blair Waldorf is. Without Blair, the show doesn’t have any substance, scheme, or drama. Although the beginning of the show started off with Blair’s best friend Serena returning from boarding school, there just simply is no plot without Blair. With that being said, Blair’s presence in the show in much more complex than that. Her independent and go-getter ways have set an example for "Gossip Girl" fans since the show started and has not ended even years after the show ended. Blair never needed another person to define who she was and she certainly didn’t need a man to do that for her. When she envisioned a goal, she sought after it, and took it. This is why Blair’s demeanor encompasses strong women like her.

If I'm not singing, I'm probably humming, sometimes without even realizing it. So as someone who loves to sing, these are some of the feelings and thoughts I have probably almost every day.
