THE UD FIVE

What Will the World Think About the Return of Green Day?

Other cultural questions we're all too happy to ponder this weekend: Why are there so many promos for Donald Glover's new FX show? Will Green Day's new album be any good? And what's this about a space exploration game that took three years to develop?

HOOKED ON TONICS

This App Is Obsessed with G&Ts

Ginto is an app that contains a massive index of gins, rare tonics and endless ways to make those two liquids taste wonderful together. It's also completely inessential to everyday life. No, it's essential, obviously.

WHEEL OF FORTUNE

Take a Wheelbarrow, Add a Barbecue, and You Get This

"Leave it to some minimalist Germans to design a live-fire, mobile cooking device that doubles as a bona fide wheelbarrow..." (We think that statement makes sense, but we can't say for sure. Still. Wheelbarrow barbecue.)

FIVE EASY PIECES

It's Been an Emotional Week, Where Clothes Are Concerned

For this week's five style picks, our editors eulogized the American-made goods of Archival Clothing, planned their first fall purchases and penned brief yet pointed diatribes to those who ignore an integral aspect of any summer wardrobe: the no-show sock. Needless to say, it's been a significant week.

BREAKFAST OF CHAMPIONS

This Concerns the Olympics. Also, Breakfast.

Breakfast is the most important meal of the day—especially if you're an Olympian. Which is why we rounded up the most popular breakfast foods from the top medal-winning countries in 2012 for you to consider when training for the 2020 Games. It's okay if "2020 Games" actually means "softball league."

TODD FUTURE

Todd Snyder, Sleepy Jones and the Business of Selling Things for Less

Today we honor Sleepy Jones and Todd Snyder, two American heroes who have graciously decided to grant you up to 60% off wool smoking jackets and robes (Sleepy) and up to 70% off crewneck sweaters, classy tees and checkered button-downs (Todd). Celebrate them. Cherish them. Buy all their stuff.
