One Twitter user wrote, "Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned," after seeing a now-viral newspaper advert that has captured attention around the world. According to an article published by Professor of Social Science Andrew Greeley in 1994, 70 percent of married Americans will cheat at least once in their marriage. But one woman has stunned the internet with her unusual solution to getting her own back on a cheating partner. Newspaper Mackay and Whitsunday Life ran an advert in its Friday edition sharing an unusual message with its 50,000 readers in Queensland, Australia.

Krispy Kreme is offering a sweet deal for anyone who gets one of the COVID-19 vaccines.

Anyone who wishes to get a daily dose of sugary, fried dough, can return to a Krispy Kreme every single day for a free doughnut for the rest of 2021. The offer is available after full vaccinations, as well as after just the first dose of the two-shot vaccine options. Krispy Kreme rolled out the announcement with posts all over its social media accounts. However, many comments to the posts disagreed with the company's seemingly benevolent offer.
