This guy asked the people of Reddit whether or not he was in the wrong for his song choice at a friend's wedding. It sounds like heavy metal could've been a tough choice for the crowd. People seem to be suggesting that it was a jerk move, with them knowing what the song was about. You be the judge.

"The Expanse" definitely has an established fan base going. In this case, a fan of the show gets contacted by the prop master from "The Expanse." Amazingly, the prop master offers to send the fan some cool stuff from the show. It's stuff like this that just warms the heart. Don't even have to be a fan of the show to appreciate someone fulfilling another fan's dream.

Sometimes it seems like an entitled customer has all the time in the world to make absurd demands that go beyond not only your job description but above common sense. In this case it was lady who wanted the freshest donuts as humanly possible, and this employee made it happen. No one has the time or patience for the demands of entitled Karens.

We wish, for the general state of things, that people were better at thinking. Since that will never change, all we can really do in lieu of that is laugh at the funnier moments of pure facepalm life has to offer. The sheer number of disappointing moments of facepalm is absolutely daunting.

Twitter user @PAYOLETTER started a thread on Twitter about bad grades people received during school. Bad grades that they assumed would ruin their lives. It's a funny thing. When in the middle of receiving a bad grade, the mind can leap toward conclusions about the future, things that haven't happened yet, and convince itself that it knows what exactly will come of receiving a bad grade. That sounds like some kind of heightened intelligence with an admirable level of processing power. Where was that during the test?
Maybe the mind doesn't know what will happen. Maybe it's just a place thoughts pop up. Maybe in the moment of great stress, the "failed grade," and the ensuing thoughts of future scenarios...you can look at those thoughts as just that. Thoughts. Not what is. Are you merely your thoughts or something else, maybe, that can see them as that. An awareness? Isn't it impossible to be something if you're aware of it in the first place?
These people's stories about what they thought would happen after a failed grade vs. what is, certainly contribute toward the reality that what is, can be a damn hard thing to predict.

Parents are describing the mind boggling questions that their toddlers asked them. Some toddlers are born into the world, and filled to the brim with questions. They might question everything, endlessly. And some of the questions will seem devoid of logic as we know it. Maybe all that questioning of the way things are is its own kind of wisdom. Who knows?

Maybe quoting a movie to a cop after they pull you over, that includes the line, "you talking to me?" in an aggressive tone, isn't the move. Maybe some lines are better left in the movies, and certainly not applied in real life situations as they unfold. These tweets from people imagine the worst possible times to quote movies out in the real world.

Most of us want to put our high school lives behind us. We sure thought we knew everything, but over the next few years realized that we were still stupid. At least we still have our old yearbooks with all the senior quotes to look back on and try to forget about again.

Whether it's cheapness, not valuing other people's skills or time, or just straight up douche-baggery, the world has its fair share of entitled individuals with unreasonable demands. It really changes your opinion of someone when they not only want valuable stuff for free, but are also threatening jerks about it. These entitled folks need to leave and take their attitudes with them.

This lying customer learned a humbling lesson in the ramifications of telling a dumb lie to pull one over on an automotive locksmith who was just trying to help. Yes, it'd seem the customer decided they didn't want to pay for the services provided, so they hatched up a lie about their rear defroster being broken in the process of the job. The locksmith decided to petty revenge back in response to the lie, and what sounds like satisfaction ensued.

Ah, Tinder. You just never know what lurks behind the next right swipe. Could be the love of your life, or a pickup line-spewing monstrosity that has no limits to how far they'll go when it comes to immature antics. One thing is guaranteed, and that's that you really don't know what you're in for. Some of these people seemed to strike gold, while others might've just struck out.

This woman asked the people of Reddit whether or not she was in the wrong for being upset about her partner getting her an engagement ring worth $80. The verdict rolling in would seem to be one that suggests she's not wrong for being hurt by the less than overwhelming financial gesture. A question that comes to mind is why he'd spend hundreds on a TV and $80 on a ring? What was the motivation there?
