Theoretically the worst possible natural disaster that could ever occur, a hurricane and earthquake happening simultaneously. To date, August 20th, 2023, was the first one to occur in US history. It wasn't that bad and no, we did not have an apocalypse yet. We might though. Who really knows at this point.
Oh shit! It's a hurriquake!

The term "candyceutical" refers to chewable supplements that are often marketed in a way that resembles candy. These products are not necessarily harmless, as health experts warn that their appearance and marketing can attract consumers while potentially overlooking their actual impact on health. The word combines "candy" and "pharmaceutical," reflecting the blend of a visually appealing form with potential health-related benefits.
She was skeptical about the candyceutical trend, wondering if these products truly deliver the health benefits they claim.

A cheeky reference to heroines of Victorian operas and novels, who frequently became ill -- but not so ill they can't remain both romantically tragic and, above all, beautiful. Usually they have tuberculosis (TB), which allows for dramatic coughing up of blood, tender goodbyes with devastated lovers, and a ROBUST aria right before she perishes. Somehow the fact that she's dying of an airborne disease never deters anyone from seeking out her intimate company. She's got this charming pink glow to her fevered cheeks that no gentleman can resist...
Authors of these stories love to wax rhapsodic about the heroine's "milky" or "alabaster" skin, and the sicker she gets the more exquisitely white she becomes! While modern readers may wonder why anyone would want to make love to a woman the same color as chalk, bleach, or the cliffs of Dover, the Victorians were very turned on by these connotations of racial purity. Nowadays such descriptions are considered purple prose, and if not outright racist then certainly in very poor taste.
The phrase "pale and interesting" is an oxymoron that mocks both the silliness and melodrama of this trope. You may feel sick as a dog, but hey, some uptight people with weird hang-ups around sex find that attractive! Lucky you!
See TVTropes.com's "Victorian Novel Disease" for a detailed description of the source material.
"I'm still nauseas, I'm just going to lie on this couch looking pale and interesting and hope hot person comes to talk to me."
"You definitely have a fever, but on the bright side you're looking very pale and interesting draped across that bed."
"This isn't a swoon, my arms and legs feel like wet noodles."
"Sexy."

The practice of booking a flight itinerary with a layover, but the layover site is actually the intended destination, rather than the final destination booked in the flight itinerary. Commonly used as a workaround to pay less for airfare.
While technically not illegal, airlines can sniff it out and punish those who do it, with punishments ranging from revoking frequent flyer miles to outright bans from the airline.
Jeremy got banned by Delta when they caught him skiplagging his Newark > Chicago > Seattle flight when he took his trip to Chicago.
