Hurkle-durkle is taking TikTok by storm.

Though it sounds like a new dance move, the term was coined in 19th-century Scotland. Hurkle-durkle describes the act of sleeping in, potentially missing everything from your 9 am stand-up to brunch with friends.

This trendy term can be an antidote to the cold and dark winter mornings. So, don’t be down on yourself for the occasional lie-in. In fact, we hope you’re perusing this week’s opportunities from the comfort of your bed.
