Betty White's unforgettable explicit first words to David Boreanaz on the 'Bones' set
David Boreanaz, who worked with White on a few episodes of "Bones" in 2015, recently reflected on his first interaction with the late "Golden Girls" actress.
While chatting with cast members during the "Bones" 20th Anniversary Retrospective at the Televerse Festival in Los Angeles, Boreanaz agreed to actor T. J. Thyne's comment that White was "a little troublemaker" on set.
"She showed up in the diner. They drive her in and put her – Ms. White – [they] usher her in," Boreanaz recalled during a panel discussion, according to People magazine.
"And she says hello to everybody. And Emily [Deschanel] and I are waiting for her. And she's like, 'Good to see you. Oh, good to see you. You're so nice. You're so pretty.' She goes up to Emily – 'Oh, you're so pretty.'"
"She looks at me, she goes, 'Holy s---, I want to f--- you. I want to f--- you!' I just started laughing," Boreanaz said.
Deschanel clarified that she didn't exactly remember the exchange.
"I'm not saying it didn't happen, I'm saying I didn't hear that, but that's amazing," she said, before co-star Tamara Taylor called White a "legendary potty mouth."
While White was known for her "Golden Girls" role and starring on "The Mary Tyler Moore Show," she regularly made movie cameos and guest appearances on television shows, including "30 Rock," "Boston Legal," and "The Bold and the Beautiful."
White died Dec. 31, 2021, at the age of 99, her friend and agent Jeff Witjas confirmed at the time.
"Even though Betty was about to be 100, I thought she would live forever," Witjas said in a statement to People magazine. "I will miss her terribly and so will the animal world that she loved so much. I don't think Betty ever feared passing because she always wanted to be with her most beloved husband Allen Ludden. She believed she would be with him again."
In 2018, White spoke to Parade magazine, revealing that the secret to her long and happy life was, in part, her consumption of foods she enjoyed, such as vodka and hot dogs – "probably in that order" – rather than restricting her diet.
"Enjoy life," she told Parade. "Accentuate the positive, not the negative. It sounds so trite, but a lot of people will pick out something to complain about, rather than say, 'Hey, that was great!' It's not hard to find great stuff if you look."

This Is How Destiny 2's ‘Dead Weeks' Will Work Now, It Seems
In the wake of Destiny 2's profitable Solstice event, so profitable I'm not sure Bungie entirely thought it through, it seemed like going back to the normal grind was going to be a slog. And while that still may be true, at reset, Bungie announced something that was at the very least eyebrow-raising. At Tuesday reset, Bungie revealed that this week, special weapon damage and ammo drops have been increased in Portal activities. Cool, great, we've seen things like 25% surges before and such for various specials, so whatever. Not whatever, not whatever at all. As the in-game pop-up says, the damage increase here for all special weapons is double. They will do twice as much damage, and if you build into ammo even a little bit, with that extra boost my guess is you'll practically be using these as a primary. That was sort of viable for some weapons before, but it may be true for most of them now. This shines a specific spotlight on a weapon like Mint Retrograde, the brand-new rocket pulse rifle that is already like a heavy weapon that uses special ammo. It's hard to take off at all and now it's flat-out twice as good. Also in the same breath you can cite Choir of One, the hugely powerful special auto rifle that even with recent ammo reserve nerfs, is still more or less a primary. Now, double damage and more ammo. Ridiculous.

There are weird ebbs and flows with deltas where 260 is easy, then 280 is hard, then 300 is easy again. Now, in Grandmaster, I'm not finding anything's that difficult at all, so this is just icing. The exception here would be Mythic Kepler missions which have enemies that are so overly obnoxiously stuffed with health that this double damage may make things actually feel vaguely normal. The main Portal issue here remains rewards versus time, where it's not worth running nearly anything but Solo Ops the majority of the time for max rewards. And now that Solstice is gone, getting lots of quality loot has been cut by probably 90% instantly, given how rewarding that event was. So, double damage specials will be fun, but the main issues with The Portal are still in place. This does give us a glimpse of what it seems Destiny 2 has in store for future 'dead' weeks, in this case a spell after a big event ends and another starts. And it also shows they're willing to go much further than we've seen in the past, and I really cannot remember a damage surge to this degree that wasn't an actual bug. So, what else do they got? Obviously, you could run the same modifier for primary or heavy weapons. Double drops seems like an extremely easy one which they have done before plenty of times, but it's even more relevant for the Portal now. I'd love one that gave us 80% shorter ability cooldowns or something like that. But the point is, they appear to be willing to finally take some very big swings when it comes to mixing things up, even if there isn't all that much content to mix up in the first place.

Bob Marley Joins Pink Floyd In One Of The Most Impressive Chart Feats Ever
Ever since it dropped in the mid-1980s, Legend, the compilation album released by Bob Marley and the Wailers, has been a must-own for music lovers everywhere. The project, which is far and away the most successful reggae set in history, has ranked as one of the bestselling musical releases of all time for many years, and it's one of a handful of titles that can always be counted on to appear on the Billboard 200. The compilation is present once again on the competitive Billboard tally, and after well over a decade on the roster, Marley posthumously makes history. Legend Reaches 900 Weeks on the Billboard 200 Legend has racked up 900 stays on the Billboard 200. As it advances to that landmark, the compilation becomes just the second album in U.S. history to reach such a prestigious figure. Bob Marley Matches Pink Floyd Marley and the Wailers' Legend joins The Dark Side of the Moon by Pink Floyd as the only two 900-week charting successes on the Billboard 200. Pink Floyd's rock classic remains in a distant first place, as it has accumulated 990 stays on the roster. Unlike Legend, however, The Dark Side of the Moon does not regularly appear on the Billboard 200, so whether or not it will ever make it to 1,000 frames is yet to be seen. Legend Continues to Move Huge Numbers of Units More than 40 years after its release, Legend moved another 12,000 equivalent units in the past tracking period in America, according to Luminate. That sum is down slightly from the previous frame, and the compilation dips from No. 91 to No. 106 on the Billboard 200. Bob Marley's Domination on the Reggae Albums Chart Legend is one of the longest-running No. 1 albums of all time on a Billboard chart, as it regularly commands the Reggae Albums tally. Of the 293 weeks it has spent somewhere on that genre-specific roster, Marley's hits-focused project has only failed to lead the charge once. 'Is This Love,' 'No Woman, No Cry' and 'Three Little Birds' Sadly, Marley never got to experience the immense commercial success that Legend has enjoyed, as the compilation dropped several years after his death in 1981. The original version features some of his most famous tracks, such as 'Is This Love,' 'No Woman, No Cry,' 'Three Little Birds,' 'Buffalo Soldier,' and several others. Legend has been re-released multiple times throughout the years, and in each instance, it's become a bestseller again.
