Dailey Bailey: A Couple Posted an Engagement Photo on Facebook . . . That Accidentally Showed Their Pregnancy Test

This couple didn’t just tell the world that they got engaged . . . they accidentally told the world why they got engaged.

A woman named Miranda Levy got engaged this week, and posted a photo on Facebook of her and her new fiancé sitting on the couch, showing off her ring.

But apparently she was in such a hurry to share the news that she didn’t realize the photo also had another detail . . . the box for a pregnancy test  was sitting next to her in the corner of the photo.

Her friends all picked up on it pretty quickly, and started asking if she was pregnant too.

Dailey Bailey: The Best Invention From Each State

Almost every state in this country was the birthplace of an invention it should be really proud of. Except maybe Mississippi. Their best invention probably isn’t one to brag about at dinner parties.

Yahoo just put up a list of the best invention from all 50 states. They didn’t really use any specific criteria . . . they just tried to find the most important, clever, useful, or popular thing that came from each state.

The best invention from Tennessee is the Tow Truck: Once cars hit the road, it was quickly apparent we needed a way to get the ones that break down off the road without disrupting everybody else. The inventor Ernest Holmes had his eureka moment after retrieving his buddy’s disabled car using three poles, a pulley, and a chain hooked up to the frame of a 1913 Cadillac, and patented the setup.

Here are some favorites from other states:

The jet ski from Arizona . . . cheeseburgers from Colorado . . . air conditioning from Florida . . . TV from Idaho . . . poker from Louisiana . . . donuts from Maine . . . toilet paper from New York . . . diners from Rhode Island . . . and Atari from Utah.

There aren’t too many embarrassing or weak ones on the list, but there ARE these three:

Headgear for braces from Wyoming . . . the Segway from New Hampshire . . . and Anti-fungal Cream from Mississippi.

Also, oddly enough, the chairlifts we use for skiing come from Nebraska . . . which isn’t exactly a skiing mecca. They were invented by an engineer there in the middle of the summer.

Dailey Bailey: Indiana Is the Most Average State in the Country . . . Hawaii Is the Least

If I told you Indiana is the most generic state in the country you’d probably say . . . “Well, uh, yeah. I could see that.” Breaking news: Indiana is the most generic state in the country.

BusinessInsider.com just ran a study where they ranked all 50 states from the most to least average based on 40 factors . . . things like size, racial breakdown, marriage rates, education, health, income, housing, and technology.

Tennessee came in as the number 16 most average state. Here’s what they said: What makes it weird: Tennessee’s disability rate of 15.7% was the eighth highest in the country. What makes it normal: 8.9% of Tennessee’s residents were civilian veterans, close to the average rate among the states of 8.7%. The state’s mean commute time of 24.5 minutes was just about a half minute longer than the average time of 24.1 minutes.

The 10 most average states in America are: Indiana . . . Missouri . . . Oregon . . . North Carolina . . . Michigan . . . Wisconsin . . . Kansas . . . Virginia . . . Pennsylvania . . . and Ohio. There’s a lot of Midwest in that list, huh?

On the other end, Hawaii is the least average state . . . mainly because its racial breakdown is SO different than anywhere else. Only 23% of people in Hawaii are white, which is much lower than any other state.

The 10 least average states are: Hawaii . . . Alaska . . . California . . . New York . . . Utah . . . West Virginia . . . New Jersey . . . Mississippi . . . North Dakota . . . and Massachusetts.

Dailey Bailey: Half of Women Say Their Boyfriend Is Average or Worse

I’m not sure if this is good news or bad news. But if you thought you were the only woman out there who settled for a so-so boyfriend, that’s definitely not the case.

A new survey asked women to rate the quality of their boyfriend on a scale of one to 10. And almost HALF of women feel like they’re with someone who’s average or worse.

45% gave a score of five or less . . . including 11% who gave their boyfriend a one out of 10.

On the other hand, 33% of women gave their boyfriend a score of 10 out of 10. So that’s one in three women . . . not bad, guys.

Dailey Bailey: The Healthiest and Unhealthiest Things on McDonald’s All-Day Breakfast Menu

McDonald’s is launching all-day breakfast today. Most locations are only offering 12 things, not the full breakfast menu.

So now that you can stuff your face with sausage 24/7, we thought we’d toss a little knowledge your way. Here are the three least healthy McDonald’s breakfasts you can get all day now . . .

1. Hotcakes and Sausage. 520 calories, 24 grams of fat, and 61 grams of carbs.

2. Sausage Biscuit with Egg. It has 510 calories and 33 grams of fat. Which is more fat than the Hotcakes and Sausage, but about half as many carbs. You can also get a Sausage Biscuit without egg, which is 440 calories.

3. The Bacon, Egg, and Cheese Biscuit. 460 calories and 26 grams of fat.

Overall, the Steak, Egg, and Cheese Bagel is the least healthy McDonald’s breakfast with 670 calories . . . but it’s not on the all-day menu.

And as far as the healthiest all-day options go, the Fruit ‘N Yogurt Parfait has the fewest calories, with 150. But if you want a sandwich, it’s the classic Egg McMuffin . . . 300 calories and 12 grams of fat.

Dailey Bailey: Burger King’s Halloween Whopper Is Turning People’s Poop Green

halloweenwhopperBurger King has been selling a Whopper with a black bun for years in other countries, and people asked them to bring it to America. So they finally caved and introduced it as a special Halloween burger this year.

Well . . . maybe we should’ve left it in Asia.

Some people are finding there’s a weird side effect of the black bun on the Halloween Whopper . . . it’s turning their poop Green. Not just a little green either.

People are complaining on Twitter . . .

People even sharing photos of their green poop. I accidentally looked at one and would strongly advise you do not!!

The ingredients for the bun include A1 steak sauce and four different food colorings, so somehow they’re teaming up to have this side effect for some people.

Fortunately there’s almost no chance the green poop is a sign of any real health problems. Once the bun is out of your system you’ll be back to nice traditional brown feces again.

Dailey Bailey: The Ten Things You Need to Fall in Love

An expert on robots wrote a book where he says he’s figured out the ten things that make people fall in love. So . . . take this with a grain of salt.

1. Similarities. Because then it’s easier to imagine them liking you back.

2. “Reciprocal liking,” which is just a stupid way of saying they do like you back.

3. Desirable characteristics. Meaning their personality and appearance.

4. Relationship readiness. Meaning you want to be in a relationship.

5. Alone time together.

6. An air of mystery.

7. Social acceptability. Meaning your friends and family approve.

8. They fulfill you in some way.

9. Excitement. You’re more likely to fall for someone when things are exciting, stressful, or even dangerous. That’s why it’s easy to fall in love during an affair.

10. An X-factor. Something really specific you like about them. It could be anything from their hair to their sense of humor.
