The world's first vlog, video, gaming platform and meme site... digital natives, here's where it all started
1 Fanfiction.net. Gen Z and Millennials may disagree on emojis, memes, and whether or not to use full stops while texting, but everyone's grown up obsessing over fanfic featuring ourselves as the main character, and shipping Twilight's Bella with Jacob. Admit it, you discovered smut for the first time on Fanfiction.net, which has been around since 1998. It's a rite of passage. We listen and we don't judge.
2 Fun Trivia. Guess when the world's oldest trivia website was launched? 1995! The 30-year-old site has crowdsourced over 2.5 million questions from users. There are quizzes about stars – the astronomical and the celeb kind – movies, countries, and history. And you can sign up and create your own quizzes too. Buzzfeed, who?

Heated flavour rivalry
The best mashups are the ones on our plates. Honey has gone sweet-spicy (swicy). Salty olives are crashing sugary dessert (swalty). There's fricy too. What's going on?

Wrap up the debate
Re-gifting isn't lazy, tacky or offensive. It means that the gift was meant for you all along. If you like a present, why hate on its backstory?

Fashion's final boss
Tarun Tahiliani was there when Indian fashion was born. He's why you wishlist corset lehengas and leather bandhgalas. And 30 years on, he's excited about the future (but wary of Gen Z). Here's the OG: Sharp, tireless, unafraid
