Kids these days, what are they like? With their YouTubing and their bit-pennies. Luckily the internet is here to explain.

Internet users have been constructing handy guides to acronyms like LOL and ROFL for baffled parents. The only problem, is they’re pretty specific…

Is your child texting about @olivegarden? Here’s a quick guide to find out:
OG: Olive Garden
LMAO: love me an olive
LOL: lots of lasagna
ROFL: ravioli or flavorful linguine
BRB: breadsticks rock, bro
WTF: where’s the fettuccine
STFU: some tiramisu for us

Everyone knows cake is the standard food to have on birthdays, but if you’re the leader of the Catholic faith, you can do what you want.

We can all learn something from Pope Francis who celebrated his 81st birthday yesterday in Vatican City with a 13-foot long pizza. It doesn’t matter who you are or how old you get—pizza is delicious, so why not go all out?

The pizza even had candles in it for him to blow out. 

Me: I need to focus on eating healthier as a way of strengthening myself spiritually as well as physically
