Comedian's brief breakdown of the love story plots in 'Love Actually' has people rolling

Are any of these storylines actually romantic?

By Annie Reneau

Love Actually has become a holiday classic in many homes across the U.S. for over two decades, and the film always prompts a range of reactions. Some celebrate it as a sweet, fun romantic comedy, while some loathe it as unrealistic and dumb. Some simply can't get past Alan Rickman's character's betrayal of Emma Thompson's character, while others watch it just for the iconic Joni Mitchell scene. But one thing most of us agree on is that the love stories in the film are…um, less than perfect.

Comedian George Lewis highlighted the film's strange love stories with a series of brief synopses, and when you see them all laid out this way, it's pretty wild. Some might even say it's disturbing how the plotlines range from obviously problematic to downright pathological, and yet people love the movie anyway.

💍 Single woman exposes harsh double-standard with 'self-centered' married friends

“Single women in your life are not just disposable accessories.”

By Tod Perry

Ashanti Bentil-Dhue, a 36-year-old advocate for single women, to keep them “Rooted. Regulated. Resourced,” released a viral TikTok video on November 4 where she points out a double standard she believes exists in friendships between married and single women. Ashanti says single women who are always there for their married friends shouldn't expect the same in return.

“We're meant to support them through all of the life events that they experience: pregnancy, proposals, engagements, destination weddings. But rarely, if ever, do married women really allocate time and investment into their single friends' life events, whether that's a promotion, a career move, a moving home, travelling, any other achievement that isn't related to a man, isn't related to procreation,” Ashanti says.

📷 Woman finds antique photo that looks just like her wife. Then more eerie similarities emerge.

Her viral video is making people believe in past lives.

By Heather Wake

Plenty of people browse eBay for rare and unique antique items. But antique faces? That pretty much is entirely Avery Klein’s territory.

For three years, the Tulsa-based artist, known on TikTok as “The Dead Detective,” has been identifying people in 19th-century photographs, a passion project that recently earned her a 2025 grant from the Artist Creative Fund. She spends her days collecting forgotten faces, researching their histories, and helping their portraits find their way into genealogical archives.

Still, despite years of practice, nothing prepared Avery for the night she discovered a girl named Sarah Somes…who bore a striking resemblance to her wife.
