Cocaine!!

An estimated 15.5 MILLION Europeans have used coke at least once in their life! (We don't count marijuana as a drug because everyone does it and it's harmless and basically becoming legal.)

Aside from snorting up nose candy, a new trend is getting high legally.

Legal highs are drugs that are basically too new to be declared illegal.

They found some crazy stats about legal highs:

Can you imagine receiving an award from two of the most popular athletes of their generations??

That's EXACTLY what happened to Afghan refugee Matiullah Haidar, who was given the inaugural Generation Ali Beyond Sport Award at a London reception by Muhammad Ali and David Beckham.

Science has done it, we can totally stop now.

Cancel all remaining experiments and stuff, it's over guys. It was a great run, but someone has reached the finish line — the mashed potato vending machine is a real thing.

Any further attempts at science are futile, because it does gravy, too!

While this seems very popular in places like Singapore, right now they don't really have plans to bring them to the 7-11's in U.S.A… yet!

Hold onto your butts, and check out the video (above) for some weird potato action!

It was looking a little uncertain for a while whether or not NBA fans would have a season to look forward to this winter, but basketball is back and (almost) better than ever!

The TNT broadcast of the New York Knicks' opening game against the Boston Celtics was the fourth most-watched regular season NBA game in cable history and the highest-rated Christmas game in cable history with an average of 5.9 million viewers.

Not bad, guys!

ABC also scored big with the Los Angeles Lakers taking on the Chicago Bulls and broadcasted the network's third highest-rated regular season game ever!

Even ESPN's Christmas day rating's jumped 26% with smaller games like Orlando and Oklahoma City, then 77% when the L.A. Clippers took on Golden State.

It looks like the lockout actually raised the interest in the sport! Let's see if the games keep people invested.

As his first game against the New York Knicks on Wednesday proved, Kris Humphries isn't exactly the most popular player in the NBA.

In fact, a recent survey has found Kim Kardashian's soon-to-be-ex-husband is actually the LEAST popular player this year. He even beat out LeBron James, who became disliked by fans across the nation after leaving Cleveland for a championship shot with the Miami Heat.

In a Nielsen E-Poll Market Research survey, the 26-year-old came in first (really, last) with 50% of those surveyed as their least favorite player.

Innerestingly enough, guess who also made the list of the NBA's most disliked players? Khloe Kardashian's husband Lamar Odom!

The former Laker, who was recently traded to the Dallas Mavericks, was ranked as the 10th least liked player on the survey.

Hmm…we see a connection here. Maybe it's not the players that basketball fans hate, but their wives! Ha!

At the end of the day though, Kris is still making $8 million for one season with the New Jersey Nets, so we don't feel too bad for him.

Pomegranates were all the rage a few years ago, but Margaux J. Rathbun is bringing them back!
