Cops Unknowingly Pull Over State Attorney


Flashback to the time that State Attorney Aramis Ayala was pulled over by the Orlando Police, and proceeded to show them what actual power looks like. The cop's reaction when he was asked for his card was priceless. That and the moment he spews something off about her windows being "really dark."

Client Demands Unblocked Spam Filter, Regrets His Decision


Client demands to have all spam sent to his email.

There's nothing quite like that sweet "I told you so feeling" you get when a customer gets exactly what they wanted and learns that they screwed up. It feels good to drink in the visceral feeling of an outsmarted horrible customer. Customers are often wrong, but too few of us don't give a rip, so this kind of interaction is as rare as it is sweet.

Pro Stock-Pickers Vs. Astrologist, Beauty Bloggers, And Cows


Norwegian TV program pits professional stock-pickers up against beauty bloggers, astrologist, and actual cows.

Twitter user @RobinWigg shared a viral thread about one very bizarre Norwegian TV program. We're talking about a situation where pro stock-pickers were pitted against an astrologist, beauty bloggers, and literal defecating cows. If that isn't the peak of entertainment I don't know what is? Naturally, the professionals were unsettled by their competition. Can't imagine how unsettled they were when they learned that Gullros was a total stock-picking wizard.

Funny and Insightful Things Said by Kids


Funny and smart things said by children.

@livefromsnacktime collects the funny and strange things adults overhear kids say. Kids can be stupid and weird but every once in a while they fall backwards into some insightful and accidentally funny comments. When kids aren't having hilariously irrational meltdowns, they're commenting on life goals and pancakes.

Movie Elements That Aren't Like That In Real Life


Moments in movies that are unrealistic

We get it. Filmmakers use unrealistic storytelling methods in order to convey the most amount of information to the viewer in as efficient a way as possible. It would be boring to watch Joe Pesci try to find parking for twenty minutes. That doesn't mean that some of these shortcuts go unnoticed, like how this tumblr thread uncovers the very limited types of movie posters.

Babysitter "Help Wanted" Ad Is Absolute Insanity


A "help wanted" ad for a babysitter is ridiculous with its extensive list of demands.

Shoutout to the folks at The Chive for discovering the goldmine of ridiculous human behavior that runs rife throughout this "help wanted" ad for a babysitter. Twitter user @honeystaysuper, unearthed just the kind of "help wanted" ad that leaves the rest of the world speechless. I don't even know where to start with this one. The attention to detail is honestly admirable. Nothing seems to be overlooked in terms of what constitutes a suitable babysitter.

Entitled Influencer Demands Free Stuff In Exchange for Exposure, Doesn't Get It


Entitled social media influencer demands free pins in exchange for exposure.

This absolute peach of a person simultaneously asks for free stuff while then bragging that they make way more money. So what they're saying is they totally could afford this person's stuff but they're just choosing to be a jerk about it. Sometimes when entitled jerks demand free art, they get satisfyingly trolled. Sometimes entitled people need to take their business elsewhere.

Irrational Reasons Toddlers Had Total Meltdowns


Irrational reasons that toddlers had total breakdowns | small kids children scream crying meltdowns Sean said word green. Won't let her throw books at my face.

There are no limits to what warrants a hysterical breakdown from a toddler. Rationality in the mind of a toddler is a terribly fleeting thing. We can't verify whether these captions are accurate depictions of what brought on the waterworks, but we'd bet they're not too far off the mark.

A Colorado Sheriff's Department has rendered many brains scrambled after their strange description of a boulder. This is apparently no ordinary boulder. No, we're dealing with a boulder that escapes simple and definite descriptions. This boulder is actually a large boulder that is the size of a small boulder. Picture that real quick! Yeah, what's happening?

Infuriating Pet Peeves People Wish Were Illegal


Tweets from people about their pet peeves that they believe should be outlawed | Marcus Smith @LegitBlackSmith #ThereShouldBeALaw makes illegal talk someone prior their first cup coffee.

Everyone's got that one pet peeve that sets them off like none other. It could be trying to coexist around people who refuse to acknowledge that many people don't like to exchange words before chugging their first cup of coffee. Or maybe you feel like it should be a law that you don't need to get up to tackle the day until your dog is ready to do so as well. Either way, you're bound to connect deeply with some of these.

Unbelievably Dumb Tattoo Translation Fails


AskReddit replies to the dumbest tattoo fails that Japanese/Chinese speakers have seen | komnenos 9h Seen few over years but one remember most first started learning Mandarin guy had tattoo on back his leg proudly said which means beef.

Someone on AskReddit asked for people that speak Japanese and/or Chinese to share the very worst (or best...) of the tattoo translation fails that they've seen. These might be some of our favorite kinds of fails. Tattoo artists can be brutal when it comes to surprising people with tattoos that definitely don't translate to what people think they do.
