Remember the last time a male friend rocked a pair of booty shorts simply so you could sit an exam?

Yeah, us neither but that's because we're not friends with Andrew Nguyen.

After being read the riot act on health and safety guidelines when it comes to science labs, Andrew's friend, Diana, was told she would need to find appropriate pants to gain entry to her lab exam.

And in a move which has seen him hailed a hero by thousands, Andrew lent Diana his pants so she'd be permitted to participate.

With no desire to roam the halls in a pair of girl's hot pants, Andrew decided to chill out in the bathroom and share his story on Twitter.

"My friend needed sweat pants in order to go in her lab and take a quiz so I'm just chilling in the restroom for 50 mins with booty shorts on," he wrote in a post which has been liked almost a quarter of a million times in less than 24 hours.

"That's a ride or die friend," wrote one Twitter user while another added: "What a great friend."

Unsurprisingly, some social media users couldn't pass up the opportunity to scorn Andrew's efforts, with one writing: "That's the definition of the FRIEND ZONE FOR LIFE."

Ah, shush! (We love you, Andrew!)

If you weren't lucky enough to nab tickets to the All Ireland replay in Croke Park this Saturday, you might be feeling a little dejected at the thought of having to watch it in your living room or local boozer.

Whether it's the idea of battling over the remote with roommates or jostling for a glimpse of the pub's screen with fellow supporters, when it comes to a match as important as this one we can't leave anything to chance.

Thankfully, we won't have to as ODEON cinemas are offering GAA supporters the opportunity to kick back in front of the silver screen and watch Dublin and Mayo fight it out for the title this Saturday.

With throw-in at 5pm, sports fans and their friends and family can prepare for the big moment with pre-game coverage at 4pm before the boys in blue go head to head with the men from Mayo.

Will Mayo break the curse of 51 or will Dublin nab their 26th title?

Head along to your local ODEON and find out!

With many of us in a state of inner turmoil over the fact we fancy a fictional serial killer, Jamie Dornan has put our minds at ease by admitting he would happily play the psychopath for the rest of his life.

Opening up about his life and career during a recent interview with Marie Claire, the Irish actor admitted that his role in The Fall is where he finds the most contentment.

"It’s a real comfort to come back and do that show, and you know, I’m very grateful for it because it’s changed my professional life," he said of the hit BBC thriller.

While acknowledging that the role of Paul Spector is not for the fainthearted, it sounds like Jamie would happily forego countless others parts in order to see Spector's story through to the end.

"I’m playing such a horrific character, but I would play him for the rest of my life if I could," he admitted.

Given the show's incredibly grim subject matter, the 34-year-old actor acknowledged the role his young family plays in allowing him to switch off after shooting.

"The kids are a great way of breaking you out of whatever," he explained. "You have no choice but to enter their world when you get home."

Yeah, we somehow fancy him even more now.

Anyone who caught the year's remake of Jungle Book will know that some of our favourite childhood flicks look even better following a modern overhaul.

And while that approach might suit some movies, it looks like the viewing public are pretty precious when it comes to Simba, Pumba and the crew.

With Disney announcing yesterday that Jon Favreau is set to put his Jungle Book experience to the test with a Lion King remake, Twitter users have take to the site to hash out the issue.

Getting the ball rolling, the man himself shared his excitement for his future endeavour, but not everyone is quite as pleased as Jon.

There was this guy…

And this guy…

Not to mention this guy…

But, thankfully for Jon, countless others were game for a remake, and many even had some directorial advice of their own.

If we thought the country was gripped by All Ireland fever earlier this month, it’s nothing on the excitement currently building in the run-up to this weekend’s replay.

Oh, but if you think donning your jersey and waving your flag is enough to show your support for the lads this Saturday, think again.

Ladies, by the looks of things in the wesht, if the breakfast you tuck into before making the pilgrimage to Croke Park doesn’t boast your county colours, you may as well stay where you are and shout for the other lads.

Luckily for Mayo supporters, Kelly’s butchers in Newport have taken the situation in hand and are now proudly displaying a selection of red and green sausages in preparation for the big day.

But whether Stephen Rochford and his men will be tucking in is another question…

Ok, we'd be the first to admit that some of our childhood crushes were more than a little questionable.

From Jim McDonald on Coronation Street to Tommy's dad on Rugrats, we're no one to cast aspersions on anyone's secret crush, but we draw the line at family members.

Rob Kardashian, however, does not.

While being interviewed alongside Blac Chyna for E!, Rob appeared to suggest he shared the same interest in his sister as much of the male population.

After Chyna revealed Ricky Martin tickled her fancy back in the day, she revealed that Rob fancied J.Lo, before adding: "And Kim Kardashian."

Worryingly, Rob responded: "That is pretty accurate… that is also pretty accurate."

And now we have to go lie in a darkened room.

Not only does college open your mind to countless ideas and theories, it also reinforces the notion that living alone under a bridge with only a tin can for company will always be preferable to rooming with someone you don't like.

Whether they steal your stuff, eat your food or throw shade at you over Twitter, a bad room mate situation is something most of us will try to avoid at all costs.

And while some of us tiptoe through the situation, others are much better at confronting it head-on as one Twitter user recently proved.

After realising that her roommate was slagging her online, Twitter user, uncle jessy, got her revenge by printing out the offending tweets and hanging them up in their dorm.
 

From "I'm allergic to my room mate" to "Two weeks down and I already hate my roommate", this gal didn't hold back when it came to rage-tweeting.

The image of the print-outs has been shared more than 97,000 times and it, unsurprisingly, doesn't look like the situation has improved in any way.

Trading tweets back and forth, friends of the girls have now weighed in on the controversy, and while it looked like their time together might be coming to an end… neither will agree to leave.

"i was gonna move out but they want me to do it tomorrow lmao i got work and school why am i the one who has to pick up my life," uncle jessy asked. "If she hates me so much she can move out, im not going to…" (sic)

How much are you appreciating your own room mates right now?

Very few people make it out of their teenage years without getting a few breakouts.

And while the vast majority of us became accustomed to concealing a blemish or two, countless teenagers were forced to deal with full-blown acne at the onset of puberty.

Thankfully, however, it sounds like there may be one serious advantage to enduring years of bad skin as scientists recently discovered.

According to a study published in the Journal of Investigative Dermatology, the cells of individuals who suffer from acne have built-in protection against ageing.

Using 1,200 twins as part of their research –  a quarter of which had acne – scientists discovered that those with acne had protective caps at the end of their chromosomes.

These 'caps' indicate strong elasticity and mean that oily skin is less likely to thin and develop wrinkles as the individual matures.

That's right, ladies. You may have been the only one with acne in your group but you'll still be getting carded well into your forties.

Win!

We all know Piers Morgan isn't one for biting his tongue, but when it came to sharing his opinion of Kim Kardashian earlier today, the Good Morning Britain host really let her have it.

Taking aim at the reality TV star for sharing a suggestive image of herself last night, the presenter dubbed her a 'slapper'.

Kim, who covered her nipples with her arms to protect her modesty, captioned the shot "Parisian Vibes" and Piers just couldn't let it go, so shared it on his own page and dubbed it 'Slapper Vibes'.

 

Parisian Vibes

People were, unsurprisingly, unimpressed with Piers attitude, with many demanding he justify this disparaging remark.

"You need to explain to us how her getting naked with her body, posting where she chooses affects you," insisted one of his Twitter followers.

Responding to the comment, Piers replied: "I think it sends completely wrong msg to the millions of young girls who follow her that only path to feminist success is flashing breasts."

The 51-year-old insisted that while he likes Kim, he finds her contribution to social media embarrassing.

"I actually like her. But these incessant naked, semi-naked selfies in the name of 'feminist empowerment' are so dumb and cringe-making.”

The dad-of-three then went one further by pitting Kim against two other women in the industry.

Comparing Kim's snap to one of Gwyneth Paltrow and Madonna, Piers wrote: "Three famous women posted photos to the world this week. One is a classy, empowering feminist."

Well,thanks for that Piers.

From Alun Kurdi, who drowned while fleeing his homeland, to Omran Daqneesh ,whose bloodied face stared out at us from the front pages of international newspapers, the plight of Syria’s children has, time and again, left millions desperately seeking answers.

And, according to UNICEF, which promotes the rights and well-being of children, the situation is getting drastically worse with every passing day.

Since just last Friday, 96 children have been killed in Eastern Aleppo while 223 have been injured.

“The children of Aleppo are trapped in a living nightmare,” said UNICEF Deputy Executive Director Justin Forsyth. “There are no words left to describe the suffering they are experiencing.”

And with just 30 doctors left and a severe lack of medical equipment and emergency medicine, officials fear for the lives of the children left.

Commenting on the bloodshed he sees on a daily basis, a doctor on the ground insisted: “Nothing can justify such assaults on children and such total disregard for human life.”

“The suffering – and the shock among children – is definitely the worst we have seen,” he added.

Along with their partners, UNICEF works across 190 countries and focuses special effort on reaching the most vulnerable and excluded children in the world.

We all know what it's like to start laughing at the most inopportune moment, right?

Whether it's during a medical appointment, immediately after hearing bad news or in the middle of a presentation, when that fit of giggles strikes, there's very little we can do about it.

And while it's bad enough on that scale, doing it on national television definitely takes the biscuit, but that's exactly what happened when CTV News Winnipeg host, Maralee Caruso,  attempted to report on the story of a British man who lived for three days… as a goat.

That's right ladies, Goat Man is real, and he's written a book on his research too.

Describing the reasoning behind Thomas Thwaites' decision to create prosthetic limbs and live in the Alps, Maralee and her two co-hosts nearly keeled over with the mirth.

And thankfully, one viewer had the good sense to share it on Twitter.

We’re a complicated bunch, us Irish.

We might still bless ourselves while passing a church, but can’t remember the last time we stepped foot inside one.

We may have discovered a new-found love for avocado, chia seed and matcha lattes, but feel compelled to whisper ‘notions’ about countless other people

And we may have a real grá for de-cluttering our homes, but, ironically, have wardrobes full to bursting with barely worn clothes.

According to a BT Ireland survey, we find de-cluttering our homes hugely therapeutic –  with 60 per cent indulging at least twice a year and 89 per cent insisting it makes them feel ‘brilliant’ – and yet our wardrobes remain stuffed.

The findings established that 49 per cent of Irish people surveyed wear only half their clothes on the regular while 28 per cent wear just a quarter frequently.

Encouraging the public to both donate to charity shops and pick up bargains along the way, 10 employees will take over nine Irish Cancer Society charity shops in Dublin, Galway and Cork on October 13th as part of BT Shop for Change in aid of the Irish Cancer Society.

And with one in two people affected by cancer, the money raised will help the Society fund innovative cancer research projects and provide support for patients and their families

Ladies, it’s time to get sorting… and shopping!
