'My brother pointed out rude error on my Shein top and I can't un-see it'
A woman was delighted after purchasing a new top from Shein because she 'loved the print', and was showing it off when her brother spotted something rude on her new shirt A woman hilariously shared that she'd bought a Shein top she really liked and posted a video of her new find online - only for her brother to point out a rather inappropriate detail. The discovery left her wondering whether she should send the garment back, and she issued a warning to others considering making the purchase. "What the f**king f**k," she started the video by saying, asking in the caption: " How did I not see it?" Charmain, who posts on TikTok as @chazpants, shared that she'd bought the floral print top and was delighted after she ordered it and found it fit nicely. However, it wasn't long before her bubble was burst. "I think this is something that could only happen to me," she joked. Charmain explained that as part of a day-in-the-life video she had filmed, she did a Shein haul, saying that she "loved the print" on the top she had bought until her brother pointed something out to her. "I don't often like stuff with prints on, so for me to find something that had a print on I was like f**k yeah. Anyway, this morning, I woke up and I was just looking through my comments, and I saw this from my brother," she shared. He'd left a comment that read: "Hmm, have you noticed the weird pattern on your new Shein clothing?!" She then admitted that she was left baffled by what he meant, so she had to take another look at the garment to see what he was referring to. Charmain then put both hands over her mouth in shock and blinked slowly at the camera to express how horrified she was that she hadn't noticed this pattern before others had. "How did I miss this? Look at it," she questioned, showing the top on screen - and it was a sight to behold. She said: "There's a massive f**king c**k and b***s on it," before proceeding to detail her disappointment in a sweary rant. She even said she might have to buy fabric markers to cover up the error. Others thanked Charmain for pointing out that this top had something a bit rude on it, writing: "I'm so glad I didn't press buy, it was for my holiday lol thankyou haha you're amazing". "Took me a while to notice it, but once you see it, you can't unsee it," somebody joked. A TikToker pointed out that they saw something totally different, writing: "Is anyone else seeing Squidward's face from Spongebob instead of the c**k and b***s?" Another shared their Shein fail, writing: "I bought a Xmas cardigan from Shein and when I did it up I had a Father Christmas face on each boob". Shein has been contacted for comment.

Magical reason people love Turkey's new Nickelodeon Land - and the one thing it gets wrong
The receptionist hands me a room key adorned with a certain yellow, porous protagonist. I've journeyed to Turkey's sun-drenched Antalya coast—not for the ancient ruins or the crystal-clear Mediterranean. I've come here to answer the question: can an all-inclusive hotel built around a talking sponge actually deliver luxury, or is it just a gimmick that would make Squidward roll his eyes? Walking into my SpongeBob -themed Deluxe Room (starting at £349 per night) feels like I've tumbled through my television and landed in Bikini Bottom. The sign above the king-size bed proclaims "Home Sweet Pineapple" in cheerful lettering, while pretend portholes dot the walls. Think nautical blues, strategic pops of yellow, and character touches that stop just short of having Patrick tucked under your pillow. It's a room that would make even Squidward crack a reluctant smile. The rooms are sure to make children squeal with delight while allowing parents to relax (as long as you don't mind the colour yellow). Even the mini-fridge is disguised as a giant pineapple. I wonder briefly if it contains Krabby Patties before discovering something far more welcome – a selection of beverages that don't require a secret formula. The rooms themselves are surprisingly practical underneath the cartoon sparkle. Alongside the themed décor, you'll find modern comforts like fast Wi-Fi, smart TVs (where you can of course watch Nickelodeon all day long) USB charging ports, and thoughtful touches for little ones like child-sized robes and step stools in the bathroom. Nickelodeon Land officially opened on 1 March 2025 - forming a partnership with the The Land of Legends theme park resort and water park. The Rixos hotel features 238 rooms spread across seven floors. You can stay in themed rooms based on PAW Patrol, Dora the Explorer, and Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles and of course- SpongeBob SquarePants. As I step onto the balcony of my room, I'm greeted not by the depths of the ocean but by a bird's-eye view of the new theme park area; Nickelodeon Land. It means you can literally watch your offspring carting around a Paw Patrol helicopter ride while sipping coffee from the comfort of your balcony. Helicopter parenting has never been so literal – or so relaxing. Also in view is the new indoor SpongeBob Universe - which is as close to being in the show as you can get (beyond your bedroom). From character meet and greets to spinning round on the "Jellyfish Jam" swings - it's fun that may have even the grown-ups answering, 'Aye-aye, captain!' Guests also get complimentary access to Aqua Land, part of the wider Land of Legends theme park. It's a sprawling water world packed with high-speed slides, lazy rivers, wave pools and aquatic shows. While Nickelodeon Land hits the mark for themed fun if your kids love Spongebob, Paw Patrol or Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, those raised on Disney's brand of magic might find it a little less spellbinding — the attention to detail and immersive storytelling don't quite reach the same heights, though it still delivers plenty of joy for younger fans. The real genius however is that when you're ready to trade cartoon characters for coastal charm, the resort brilliantly delivers on both fronts. The resort offers a complimentary shuttle service to another Rixos property - Rixos Premium Belek, where guests can enjoy access to some stunning pools and beach club., among pine and walnut forests. A nice reminder that yes, you are actually in Turkey, not merely inside a cartoon. Because even SpongeBob occasionally needs a day above water. And one thing that certainly hits the spot is the food. Back at the Nickelodeon hotel, I head to Le Spatula restaurant, named after our yellow hero's favorite kitchen tool. The all-day dining venue offers a buffet with everything from traditional Turkish fare (the best baklava) to yummy stews. The all-inclusive nature of the resort means entertainment options abound. Club Nick provides supervised activities for children, operating with themes that rotate daily, as well as an outdoor heated splash park. Meanwhile, parents can sneak off to Anjana Spa, offering treatments that will have you feeling more relaxed than Patrick on a Sunday afternoon. So, can a hotel inspired by a talking sponge deliver on luxury? Surprisingly, yes. Nickelodeon Hotels & Resorts Antalya walks the tightrope between chaos and calm with surprising grace—offering sugar-fuelled fun for the kids and enough grown-up perks to keep parents sane. To book, visit the Land of Legends' website. Rooms are available from £349 per night in a Themed Deluxe Room.

I tried PopUp Bagels in Boston so you don't have to
PopUp Bagels, the chain that wants you to rip apart pieces of your bagel like a caveman and dump it into a vat of cream cheese, is taking on the Boston breakfast scene. Against my better judgment, I tried it. The intrigue: What began as a pandemic experiment in a man's Westport, Connecticut, home has expanded across that state, New York and now Boston. PopUp appeared in Wellesley and the Seaport and recently secured a lease to set up shop in Harvard Square. Catch up quick: The concept of ripping a bagel chunk and dipping it into a cream cheese container feels wrong. But I volunteered as tribute. Actually, my editors asked me to go. Maybe they were entertained by the shudder I let out when the topic came up. Who am I to deprive them and the readers of some fun at my expense? Anyway, that's what I told myself as I pulled apart a chunk of everything bagel and dunked it into a container of Parmesan-garlic cream cheese. (Yes, I spilled seeds and spices all over my table.) My seven-word review: I wanted to hate it. I couldn't. Zoom in: The bagel was almost as chewy as a New York bagel, with a crispy crunch around the edges. The Parmesan and garlic were tasty, but not overpowering. Between the lines: If you or your kids ever watched SpongeBob SquarePants, you might remember that Squidward, the grumpy squid Krabby Patty employee, insisted he hated the burgers. Then he bit into a morsel of a patty, and — to his dismay — it changed his tastebuds forever. I'm not saying this is Krabby Patty good. It's just better than I'd like to admit.
