Applebee’s Releases… Lip Gloss?
Yeah. You read that right. Applebee’s has launched something new… and I know what you were thinking. Because I was thinking it too. “Food, right? Perhaps a new dinner deal? New entrée?” Nope. Wrong. Very wrong. But it is food flavored.
It seems that Applebee’s is trying their hand in the cosmetics game. The restaurant chain has teamed up with Winky Lux to release a line of chicken wing flavored lip glosses called “Saucy Gloss.” There are four lip glosses total in the collection, and the glosses are all based on Applebee’s chicken wing flavors. They are all available for $18 a piece, or you can purchase them as a combo for $65. Not gonna lie, this took me back a bit. These must be some high-end chicken wing lip glosses. I can’t decide how I feel about any of this.
First we have “Get Me Hot Buffalo,” and this gloss is based off of Applebee’s Classic Buffalo wing sauce. Its a shimmery coral shade, and it actually looks like the perfect gloss to top off a look on a ‘saucy’ night. “Sweet Chile Kiss” is a deep red gloss enriched with a shimmer of gold, truly representative of Applebee’s Sweet Asian Chile sauce. “Be My Honey Pepper” is has a golden honey glow inspired by the Applebee’s Honey Pepper wing sauce. But I think my personal favorite, based off both looks and name, is “Honey BBQ-T.” Get it? Q-T? Cutie? I think it’s clever. This vivacious gloss is inspired by Applebee’s Honey BBQ sauce, and it looks like the perfect shade for both a casual work day or a night out on the town. Just enough color, but not too overpowering. I might just have to try it…
Their website proudly states “Swipe these on and everyone will want to taste your face.” That’s a bold statement. But for anyone that loves a chicken wing as much as I do, it might just be a true statement. Super odd release, Applebee’s. But I think I might just have to give the “Honey BBQ-T” a shot.

A Flying Car Has Been Approved For Take Off
Well folks… I think we’ve officially entered the future. There have been many incredible technological advances in the twenty-first century thus far. This one might just take the cake.
Several different companies have been trying to create a flying car for a good while. One of these companies is Samson Sky, and one of those aircraft/car combos is the Switchblade. The Switchblade is a project that has been in the making for 14 years. According to The Hill, The Switchblade “could be just weeks away from getting its wheels off the ground after a Federal Aviation Administration inspection on July 15 determined it’s safe to fly.” The Samson Sky team wasted no time following their greenlight from the FAA. The Switchblade was out on the runway starting high-speed taxi tests the very next day.
From the sound of it, we could all be living our Back to the Future fantasy not to far down the road. Which would be EPIC. People have already started lining up for Switchblades, with 1,670 individuals making their no-cost reservation. However, those that make a reservation will have to make a $2,000 deposit within 45 days of the first public flight. So if you’re one of those 1,670, get ready to cough it up.
I can’t imagine these things being affordable anytime in the near future. I also have so many unanswered questions. Are more airports going to have to be built once aircraft automobiles hit the market? How do you ensure one of these? I’m sure I’ll get my answers in due time, because I think the Switchblade, as well as the many other flying cars in the works, are here to stay. Hello future!
