Hollywoodlife.com claims Kim Kardashian and Pete Davidson don't care that she is 41 and he is 27. A source tells the website, “Kim doesn’t care about the age difference or what anyone else thinks. Pete definitely doesn’t care about the age difference. She doesn’t need status, so dating him is easy and light. The thing is, she was and still is a brand with Kanye, but the fact that she’s allowing herself to step out and go to Staten Island where he’s from is a big deal for both of them. Things between Pete and Kim are very real.”

A source tells In Touch Weekly Magazine, “Sparks flew on the set of Saturday Night Live. Kim never expected this. Pete makes her laugh. She has fun with him. She’s not overthinking things at this point. It’s so early. All she knows right now is he’s a sweetheart.”

Elite Daily says Kanye is no longer following Kim online because she is dating Pete. A source tells The NY Post that the Kardashians are worried about Kanye having a meltdown. “Everybody in the family is worried about how Kanye will react to Kim spending so much time with Pete. Kanye recently said he still wants to be with her, so he can’t be taking this well. He just unfollowed her on Instagram, but we think it’s only a matter of time until Kanye has an outburst.''

The NY Post says Kanye is dating a 22 year-old model named Vinetria.

I hope that you rise to the occasion and fulfill your destiny.’’

Dear Fonseca,

I went to an all-you-can-eat buffet on Friday night. I couldn't believe my eyes when I received my bill. I was charged for not only the buffet, but also some of the food that I left on my plate. The manager and I argued for 10 minutes. He says I wasted his food. It's an all-you-can-eat buffet so I believe I should be allowed to pick and choose what I eat even if I don't finish it. I reluctantly paid the bill, but am now thinking about contesting it with my credit card company. Should the restaurant have billed me extra for the food I did not eat? Is this even legal?
