Dirt Bikers Trying to Climb an Impossible Hill
The Impossible Climb Andler in Belgium is a dirt bike challenge that has taken place 20 times, and it has never seen one totally successful attempt. Dirt bikers compete to try to get to the top of the incredibly steep hill, and usually get banged up in the process. In this 2019 event one rider got their front wheel across the finish line, but again, no one has ever officially made it to the top.

Tumblr Post: Male Beauty Standard Is Toxic
I mean, the fact that someone went so far as to tease Jason Momoa over his physical appearance is already unbelievable enough. From there, this quick and powerful rant from a Tumblr user does a solid job at covering how the male beauty standard perpetuated through certain parts of the bodybuilding community only serves to create unrealistic and deadly standards.
This Tumblr post brings to mind the other Tumblr thread we've featured about how movies end up fueling unrealistic physical standards.

Glorious Tales Of Petty Revenge
The proper petty revenge is a true art form. People hold on to all that pent up frustration and ultimately decide to unleash it in acts of pure pettiness. On the one hand, it's only creating more frustration for someone else, and just further fueling the cycle of anger; but on the other hand, petty revenge just feels so good. These tales of petty revenge might put a smile on your face.

Well-Meaning Boob Waters Fake Plants for Months
This person thought they were doing a great job of keeping their succulents alive until they had to be told their thumb wasn't so green after all. Apparently this is a pretty common occurrence? At least it still looks nice. Either way, there are loads of instances where people realize obvious stuff way too late.

Entitled People and Their Unrealistic Demands
Whether it's because they think haggling is just an excuse to abuse people, or have irrational expectations about the world around them, entitled people will continue to fill the world with their unreasonable demands. Sometimes it's a boss who expects you to work on the weekends for free, other times it could be a total stranger who thinks that it's a reasonable request for you to ship your dog to them so they can pet it. Entitled people just keep making laughable demands. Sometimes entitled people even go full Karen.

Girls Try To Team Up Against Roommate, Roommate Goes Nuclear
They should've picked their battle a whole lot more carefully. It sounds like these girls were a couple toxic and entitled roommates, in dire need of a reality check moment. Well, as things escalated, and one thing led to another, their roommate certainly beat them at their own game. Sounds like everything came undone for them. And really, it seems like that was the deserved outcome.
Check out another nuclear revenge with this woman who was unjustly fired, so she ruined the business.

Tumblr Thread: Long YouTube Ad Has Eight Twists
This fun Tumblr thread captures the experience of someone realizing that YouTube had a seven hour ad. Now that is something you don't see everyday. And certainly not something that you want to find yourself having to sit through. Thank goodness YouTube has the "skip ad" feature nowadays.

Factors People Didn't Anticipate about Adulthood
Adult life is a bit of a surprise to everybody. There are things that you expected but still don't enjoy, like paying bills. Then there are other strange things that are hard to expect, like the childishness of other adults, and the realities of dusting. It starts with your first encounter with total BS and just keeps sliding from there. Here are some adult life equivalents of calling the teacher mom.

The Classic "In Need of Dad" Craigslist Ad
It is what it is. Just a simple ask from a group of folks who need a father figure to stand in for their barbecue. Who knows if anyone ever responded to the ad, but we like to think someone had a great barbecue with a highly qualified dad. At least people are still posting weird ads online.

Wonderfully Mistranslated Shirts
Stylistically speaking, it's probably more important to the wearer in these case just to have English on the shirt than to care about what it actually means. It's kinda like when someone gets a tattoo in a language they don't understand. They think means "energy" but really it means "steak and eggs." Literal translations in any language can turn into beautiful nonsense.
