A Star Wars-inspired Stormtrooper electric shaver so they can get their face as smooth as a Baby Yoda's bottom.
A screaming goat figurine, because sometimes they need a buddy to scream it out with. It even comes with a book full of fun facts and trivia about the ever-majestic goat.
A pack of 16 slingshot chickens they can pull, stretch, and fling at the wall or ceiling when they're feeling a bit bored, angry, or fidgety.
A convenient lil' condiment fork if their love of pickles and olives is only matched by how much they hate getting soggy fingers by grabbing them straight out of the jar. All they have to do is place the silicone band around the top of the jar, and voila!
A carton of popcorn seasoning salt so their at-home movie night snack rivals that of their local movie theater.
A pack of four Crocs-shaped car air fresheners because the actual Crocs on their actual feet make their Subaru smell quite funky. These colorful and charming fresheners come with 12 scent pads (four lavender, four fern, and four unscented) and can be clipped to their car's air vent.
A pair of (surprisingly) cozy fish slippers whose anti-skid soles not only ensure that these sandals are more wear-resistant but will also make sure they don't go slippin' and slidin' like, well, a wet fish.
A rebellious mini frog statue perfect for decorating their garden and flipping off the neighbors.
A mini wacky waving inflatable tube guy if they need a fun (but silent) coworker at their WFH station. Or if they need a good laugh while on their porcelain throne.
A funny yet useful "Grievance Journal" because as much as you love your dad's incredibly dark sense of humor when it comes to all the things in life that annoy them, maaaybe they'd be better served writing those thoughts down instead of sharing them with the class. Inside, they'll find 52 distinct writing prompts and 52 misanthropic jokes that they are sure to find a little too funny.
A Mjolnir bottle opener — others will ~Marvel~ at how strong they are as they pop open a Corona with ease!
And a 44-piece Mjölnir toolbox sure to make them feel like a superhero every time they use what's in it to fix a household problem.
A "Grillfather" apron so they can show off their burger-making abilities to the ~mob~ of family and friends waiting to eat at their next summer shindig.
A wearable shark blanket if their favorite character in Jaws is, well, Jaws. Now they can cozy up on the couch to watch it! Dun dunnn!
A "Gracula" garlic crusher — just because the Count has a garlic aversion doesn't mean he can't help them mince a little for their homemade pasta sauce. And it'll only take a few seconds!
A set of guitar-themed grilling utensils to help them ~rock~ at the next barbecue! These stainless-steel utensils are rust-resistant so they'll last longer than Aerosmith toured. (Yep, they're still touring.)
A Puffin sweatshirt can cooler so their cold IPA (or LaCroix, we don't judge) doesn't give their fingers frostbite. Plus, it'll keep their bev as cool as they are!
A lightsaber wiper blade cover — now The Force can help keep their rear window clean!
A lil' golf pen set that'll help keep their hands busy during their next Zoom call. This set comes with three golf club gel pens, two tiny golf balls, and a tiny golf course. Fore!
And a toilet golf set because anytime is a good time to practice their putting! This set comes with a small putter, a wraparound green, two golf balls, a hole with a flag, and a "Do Not Disturb Card" they can hang on the bathroom door. Time to get their hole in one...
A Live Laugh Lose party game — if they're already a pro at corny jokes, they'll love the challenge of coming up with (and then delivering) one on the spot.
A squishy Blobfish they can tote around like the cute little pet stress ball that it is.
A cute baby Grogu toothpaste dispenser so brushing their teeth becomes a weird and fun treat. Even if that treat looks like alien vomit.
Two pairs of hotdog socks if their favorite meal comes doused in a million condiments. These cozy socks are sure to make them feel like a ~snack~!
A cute peeled banana wine stopper made of 100% food-grade silicone to keep their red from turning into an undrinkable vinegar.
A Lego Fender guitar set that'll allow them to show off both their love of rock 'n' roll and their craftsmanship. It comes with a posable whammy bar, pickup switch, tuning pegs, six strings, Fender logo stickers, and a textile strap. Oh, and they can build the guitar in either red or black.
A toilet-themed book of puzzles so they can test their mental agility while under stress!
A darling swinging duck car mirror accessory for when they're feeling a little lonely on their drive to work. Now they can get their quack on with this cutie!
A pair of funny Porta Potty shot glasses since vodka is essentially spicy toilet water anyway. If that's their go-to, it may be time for them to re-evaluate some of their choices...
A dad joke button jam-packed with over 50 jokes sure to make them laugh and make you cringe.
Or a book of dad jokes because they've been telling the same one about being on a "seafood" diet for far too long now. It's getting a little embarrassing...

Mark Hamill Tells Fans Not To Expect His Return In 'Star Wars'

Summary With the upcoming filmNew Jedi Order,set for release in 2027, fans should prepare for the absence ofMark Hamillas Luke Skywalker. In a recent interview announced that he is stepping away from the role, urging fans not to expect his return in any future installments or screenings. He expressed gratitude toGeorge Lucasfor giving him the opportunity to be part of what Lucas once described as 'the most expensive low-budget movie ever made,' — a film that has since evolved into a globally recognized franchise. Hamill explained, 'We never expected it to become a permanent franchise and a part of pop culture like that. But my view is, I had my time. I'm appreciative of that, but I really think they should focus on the future and all the new characters.' His last notable appearance was inEpisode IX: The Rise of Skywalker, where he returned as a Force spirit to guide Rey in her final confrontation with Kylo Ren (Adam Driver) before becoming one with the Force. Reflecting on his departure, Hamill joked, 'When I disappeared inThe Last Jedi, I left my robes behind. And there's no way I'm gonna appear as a naked Force ghost. I'm just letting you know that right now.' Although Hamill has seemingly retired from his role as Luke Skywalker, his impact on the Star Wars universe remains undeniable. Fortunately, fans still have much to look forward to with several upcoming projects — including Star Wars:Starfighter, directed by Shawn Levy and starring Ryan Gosling, set five years after the sequel trilogy and releasing in 2027, andThe Mandalorian & Grogu, arriving in 2026 and featuring Pedro Pascal, Sigourney Weaver and Jeremy Allen White.

BAO Celebrates a Decade of Creative Taiwanese Cuisine With Special Anniversary Menu

Summary BAOis set to mark its 10th anniversary, celebrating a decade of Taiwanese-inspired innovation in London's culinary landscape. Founded by Shing Tat Chung,Erchen Changand Wai Ting Chung, BAO began as a humble street food venture, operating with nothing more than a cool box and a steamer. Over the years, it has grown into a renowned restaurant brand, famed for its cult-status Taiwanese steamed buns andxiao chiplates, influencing London's perception of Taiwanese cuisine. To honor this milestone, guests can enjoy BAO's classic steamed buns at their original street food stall price starting June 10 for a month. Guests can indulge in beloved fillings like braised pork belly, beef short rib and vegan daikon, all folded into BAO's pillowy-soft buns, delivering a nostalgic yet celebratory experience. Meanwhile, the restaurant is also unveiling a brand-new menu, introducing an entire section dedicated to Taiwanese fried chicken, featuring charcoal-finished fried chicken steak — a UK-first. Guests can personalize their dish with a house BBQ glaze dusted with garlic chili powder or a chili lime pour with shredded cabbage, alongside sticky Peking caramel wings and nuggets paired with Sichuan mayo, hot sauce, basil ranch, or yushiang for dipping. Beyond its savory selections, BAO is debuting the BAONUT, a decadent fusion of fluffy BAO and crispy Taiwanese donut, offering a unique twist on classic indulgence. Other exciting additions include a new calamari BAO, dry beef noodles infused with rich bone marrow, and a summer salad topped with juicy grilled chicken. The refreshing lineup of bubble teas introduces an aromatic mango and salted coconut flavor, expanding BAO's beverage offerings. Reflecting on the journey, Shing Tat Chung shared, 'We started BAO with no expectations – just three young creatives with a passion for food and design. We could not have imagined the journey that would come over the next decade.' Co-founder Erchen Chang added, 'We're grateful to every single one of our guests and team members from over the years and excited to celebrate our 10th birthday in style. Having recently been back to Taiwan, we're mixing up our menu for the first time, adding some new additions inspired by our trip. We can't wait to welcome BAO fans both old and new over the next month.' The anniversary celebrations will culminate in the Battle of the BAO, where alumni and current BAO chefs will compete for a spot on the new permanent menu. Hosted in collaboration with premium rewards card Yonder, the event promises a showcase of creativity and culinary expertise. BAO's new menu and special £3.50 GBP (approx. $5 USD) pricing will officially launch on June 10 with the celebratory offer available across all locations until July 10, 2025.
