We don’t do a lot of news here on PGP, but when we get a hot tip, we’re all over it. These are the 10 hottest water cooler stories we posted on PGP this year. Whether it was Chipotle jacking up your burrito prices or Swedish Tinder babes, these are the stories postgrads absolutely ate up in 2014.
1. Kentucky Woman Breaks Up With Her Boyfriend In An Absolutely Brutal Facebook Post
A woman in Kentucky found out her high school basketball coach boyfriend had been carrying on inappropriate relationships through texts she found in his phone. She took to Facebook and absolutely torched his ass.
2. (redacted story about a certain cinnamon flavored whisky possibly being poison that we removed after they threatened to sue us)
Finland’s health department banned your favorite cinnamon whisky since it had similar ingredients to antifreeze, but it’s still 100% legal in the US of A. Keep ordering shots of it.
3. This Guy Sent A Text To All 32 Of His Tinder Matches At The Same Time And It Blew Up In His Face
When Tindering goes oh so wrong. This casanova sent a flirty text to all 32 of his Tinder matches and they all turned on him in a hilarious way.
4. Chipotle Is About To Screw Us All
Chipotle raised their prices by three percent and your monthly budget was fucked because of it. Not really, but anytime the price of goods goes up, it’s never a good thing for the old wallet.
5. Peyton Manning Arrested In Nashville For Cocaine Possession
No. Not the Peyton Manning you’re thinking of. Just the offspring of two insane Tennessee Vols fans got caught with a baggy of yayo and got thrown in the slammer. Classic mix up.

All of the women on Tinder in Sweden look like supermodels. Don’t believe me? Look for yourself.

8. Esurance Put Up An Extremely Vulgar Billboard In Chicago
This story turned out to be fake, but it was still pretty damn funny. The sign originally said “Cover your home in a click,” but the Photoshopped version said “Cover your home in a dick.” All in all, it was still worth some laughs.
9. Passenger Shaming On Instagram Is The Best Air Travel Trend Since Free Peanuts
That guy sitting in 16F take his shoes off again? The asshole behind you won’t stop smashing the back of your chair? These people had enough. The Instagram account “Passenger Shaming” showcases the very worst in air travel and the people who document it.
10. Netflix Just Released Their December Lineup And It’s Loaded

What do I love? I love happy hour, a good golf tan, and getting moderately drunk during dinner.

Forgot that a month after the Swedish Tinder article broke, I went to Stockholm for a week. It’s every bit as good as advertised, but Finland is grossly underrated, and easier to talk to.
You talked to Finland? What did it say?
Swedish Tinder…
Having a month for binging. PGP
Sterling is keeping himself relevant by posting on the “Best Of” posts. And yet somehow, respect.
