This woman got back at a nasty old con man, who'd acquired his wealth through scamming others by outsmarting him. The nuclear revenge that ensues comes at quite the cost to the tricky bastard. To think that he was probably all kinds of jacked up, getting away with $25K when he ends up losing about half a million dollars.

Most people are basically decent. Almost all of us try really hard to be respectful to our family, friends, and even complete strangers. There's a general understanding that it's not good to inconvenience other people or make their lives harder. For one reason another, there are times when that it completely lost on some of us. The result is people being huge A-holes to the point where someone's trashiness is its own spectacle. These are some of those times. For more, check out these moments of extreme trashiness to max out your garbage-ometer.

Well, when you can't treat people like human beings, you end up leaving looking like carrot top. This hairstylist even went above and beyond having to deal with this lady's demands! For another satisfying customer service story, here's a cashier who lives out the retail dream by telling off a Karen and living.

You've got to love how he just casually stops at the red light after making an emergency landing on a busy road in Washington State, in an airplane! Glad everyone seems to be okay in this.

A young woman tweeted out a wonderful, wholesome little encounter she had with another customer at Starbucks. Sounds like the guy was with his wife and having a great day, and his day got even better when he proceeded to hold hands with a couple strangers and score a free drink in the process. A solid example of turning an awkward situation into a great day.

It's okay to have enjoyed high school. Many of us didn't. In fact we have tons of cringey high school memories that we regret. But it's alright to remember high school fondly. It's the folks who still think high school is important after 10 years who may need a reality check.

We've seen customers getting irrationally angry, but what do you do when someone is just too chill for their own good? This pizza company delivered a real messed up pizza, so they offered to deliver a new one, but this incredibly nice customer they delivered to wasn't having it. Luckily they reached an agreeable solution.

This inspector of labor got pulled over by a cop who felt like being rude upon ticketing him. Unfortunately that was the cop's second biggest mistake, with his first being not wearing the proper "equipment" which he ended up getting ticketed for. And that final ticket cost was a $2,000 fine!

Just because you see something you don't like doesn't mean it's an emergency. 911 dispatchers get dumb calls all the time. Luckily they're there to sift through the people having a meltdown in traffic and grandmas who think the kids on their lawn are terrorists so cops can respond to actual crimes.

The bluntnose sixgill shark is an ancient deep sea predator. Like it's been around since before most dinosaurs. They average between 3.1 to 4.2 meters (10 to 14 ft) long but can get up to 8 meters (26 ft) long. This crew of scientists got a good look at one. These group is also credited with being the first ever to tag an animal from a submarine. Look at that eye roll into the back of it's head.

For all the terribly inconvenient calls we've had with cable and internet providers, it's encouraging to see a person go the extra mile to effectively help someone who needs it. You hope your customer service rep is like this. Just kinda feels nice to see some interpersonal understanding, in a wholesome sort of way.

In our world of buyer beware, all you have is your wits keeping you from falling prey to manipulative and terrible products and ads. It's even harder when you're shopping online, since not seeing a physical version of the product will pit your expectations vs reality. These people definitely felt the pain of misleading advertising and the results are pretty damn funny.

Careful, these Twitter users sharing the stuff that they're old enough to remember might overwhelm you with nostalgia. That or you're going to feel very old.

Rogersimon10 is a prolific commenter on askreddit who is able to railroad any wholesome story into his dad beating him with jumper cables. It's a dark kind of trolling, and it's pretty dumb, but we admire his commitment to the bit. You never expect the jumper cables. He's a bit like Ken M, but with jumper cables.
