  • Headline: Exploring 70's Family Comedy Trends. Impact: This wholesome family flick trapped us in a 70’s time warp, causing generations to question the necessity of haircuts and healthy eating. It also gave birth to the retro revival, making bell-bottoms a fashion statement again. Thanks a lot, wholesome family!. Fact: Fun fact: The 1970s are now considered a 'vintage' decade, which means if you wore those clothes in the 90s, you were just ahead of the curve. Or perhaps just a little confused..
  • Headline: Cultural Comedy: Russia Meets France. Impact: This magical culture-clash comedy inadvertently inspired a wave of tourism to St. Petersburg where tourists now search for their own magical windows. Little do they know, it’s just a regular window but everyone's still trying to capture the essence of the buffoonish charm.. Fact: Did you know that St. Petersburg is famous for its White Nights? No, not because of the buffoonery, but because the sun barely sets! Perfect for those who can’t decide whether to party or sleep..
  • Headline: About Real Estate; Home Builders Redesigning Out-of-Favor Projects. Impact: The real estate redesigns prompted by this article led to an influx of 'luxury tiny homes' that people now brag about on social media. Turns out, having less space just means more room for your overpriced avocado toast habit.. Fact: Did you know that every time a home builder redesigns a project, a hipster somewhere is inspired to start a blog about it? Spoiler: it’s always about how to live minimally while spending excessively..
