In case you haven't heard, the Jonas brothers are back! They released a new single, "Sucker," on March 1st; unsurprisingly, it made it to the top of Billboard's HOT 100 shortly thereafter.
Many people have been waiting for the Jonas brothers' return to the music world, and were more than excited to listen to the new track.
According to BuzzAngle Music, in addition to playing on the radio, "Sucker" was listened to on 30 million audio streams, 16 million video streams and 88,000 digital sales in its first week alone. An impressive debut for a song from a group who hasn't been active in five years!

Priyanka Chopra Jonas, Indian actress, singer and producer, has been married to Nick since December. They celebrated their union with both traditional Hindu and Christian ceremonies at Umaid Bhawan Palace in Jodhpur.
In celebration of this milestone, Nick Jonas decided to get a very expensive present for his wife: a Maybach.

The MSRP for 2019 Mercedes-Maybach S 650 starts at $199,000. Not an insignificant investment.
Priyanka shared a congratulatory message to her husband on Instagram shortly after the song hit number one, showing the shadow box sent from Billboard to commemorate the achievement.
Shortly thereafter, she shared another post showing the couple and their dog, Diana, in front of the new car with a celebratory bottle of champagne.
The car's name? Extra Chopra Jonas. A fitting name for such an extra gift.
Most Instagram users were loving the gift, and the feelings behind it.

Some were a bit critical of the exorbitant display of wealth, though.

Nick's excitement at the achievement is understandable, and it makes sense that he would want a tangible way to share that excitement with his lovely wife.

“What's the best insult you've heard without swearing?"
Professor burn…
“After getting a compliment on his assignment, A buddy of mine leaned back in his chair and told our college professor, ‘I'm not as dumb as I look.’ To which he leaned forward on his podium and said, ‘You couldnt be.’” dusty_boots
“…and may God have mercy on your soul.”
“One of the best is from Billy Madison, ‘What you've just said is one of the most insanely idiotic things I have ever heard. At no point in your rambling, incoherent response were you even close to anything that could be considered a rational thought. Everyone in this room is now dumber for having listened to it. I award you no points, and may God have mercy on your soul.’” maswriter
You should apologize…
“You’re not the dumbest person in the world, but you'd better hope they don’t die.” WhatThatBoiDoin
“Whenever this question is posted, my favorite is usually along the lines of: ‘There's a tree somewhere in the Amazon jungle with sole purpose of producing oxygen you breathe. You should go find that tree and apologize." all_worth

Sure, it's depressing, but you know what? Aging happens to all of us, and no one is getting out of here alive.
"What gets worse with age?"
Physical consequences of aging is one of the cruelest things in life.
What The Body Does With Food

"Every meal is followed by a poop."

After A Wild Night
"Hangovers for sure."
"At 18 I could go heavily drink and feel damn near 100% the next day. Now I get horrid mental and physical effects. Probably should quit drinking all together."

Deaf GIF by memecandyGiphyThe degeneration of certain abilities as we get older is too much to bear.
Staying Above Water
"My ability to cope. I'm just burnt out all the time."
"I feel the same. Aside from my family and friends, I have no care for anyone or anything anymore. Nothing phases me but that's not a good thing IMO. I feel very apathetic towards everything, I'm tired all the time and just want to lay down."

I found as I'm getting older my patience and tolerance for certain things have gotten worse.
Waiting in line at the grocery store while someone fumbles with their payment option, or getting antsy when the food I ordered at the restaurant is taking way too long are things that never bothered me ten years ago.
I"m not curmudgeonly by any means, at least not yet. Besides, I'm not that old.
But to all the cranky elders I grew up with who complained about poor service or lack of efficiency, I get it now, and I hear you.
