Spooky Signs that Mean Serious Business


There are a lot of unconventional hazards in this world. You wouldn't think that walking into a mine field or falling into a hidden pit could be a legitimate danger, but luckily we have creepy signs that mean business. Sometimes they're overly vague, and some put the danger into cartoonish detail, but that all amounts to the fact that these signs should definitely not be ignored.

Woman Tries To Eat Homegrown Tomatoes, Gets In Showdown With Wasp


This woman was just trying to enjoy the results of her hard earned efforts with growing some tomatoes. You'll see at the end that those tomatoes are a thing of beauty. That being said, she ends up in a tense, adrenaline-charged duel with a persistent monster wasp. Things could've gone very differently.

Text - r/tifu + Join u/leahnardo • 1d 1 2 4 F1 3 2 1 TIFU by not watering my tomatoes and underestimating physics M This happened about thirty minutes ago. So l've been Covid gardening since March, growing stuff from seeds, and my tomatoes are monsters. Six feet high and still going. Temps have been in the upper 90's, so I need to water them twice a day. I check their condition, note they do need water, then see an actual TOMATO OMG. Since this is the first edible thing I've seen after three mon

Text - The wasp is, as you can imagine, not terribly pleased to be trapped in the thickets of my hair. I do not panic, however. I grab the base of that hank of hair and hold it while still leaning forward so the angry little bastard doesn't swing directly into my face. I go into problem- solving mode. The wasp does not wish to be in my hair- I do not wish the wasp to be in my hair. Yet, I sense, cooperation will not be possible. I instead enlist physics as my helper and attempt to fling the litt

Text - Having switched directly from "not panicking I can solve this" to "panicking now HAVE A WASP IN MY BOOBS," I yank the neck of my tank top forward in an attempt to keep the buzzing motherfucker from digging a hole in my fun bags. Luckily, the wasp appeared to watch a lot of fashion television and was instead attacking my tank top. I mean, I get it. No one wants to be flung into leaf green ribbed polyester. It is so last summer. Having learned absolutely nothing from my previous flirtation

Text - Still bent forward and holding my tank top's neck at least a foot from me, I crow in victory and straighten up, immediately making awkward eye contact with the three stunned construction workers in my neighbor's back yard. No, I was not wearing a bra. So yeah, I just flashed those poor men with leaning forward middle- aged dangle boobs. Fluttering like pennants in the wind. Not the most flattering angle. Did I attempt to explain my entirely reasonable circumstances to those baffled people

5.

Text - tl;dr: Monster tomatoes lead to cleavage wasp, and my titty semaphore is not understood by baffled bystanders. Edit: Wow, I crashed and went to bed after reading a few very nice comments that made my night, and woke up to a very full inbox. Thank you! Also, yes I snuck out after dark to water the tomatoes, they are going to be fine! I watered them again this morning. There are no construction people over at my neighbor's yet, but they appear to be building a fence, so l'm going back insid

Revenge Stories From People Pushed Too Far


Someone on AskReddit got a thread going about people that were pushed to their breaking point, and took revenge as a result. Everyone has their limits, and sometimes folks snap, glorious revenges result. Check out a recent pro revenge story that we ran about a tenant who outwitted a nasty landlord that tried to withhold their deposit.

We put it back together and fixed it. I added lots of pointy needles. I put it back on the door. She told me that she heard some swearing at 6:30 in the morning. It was one of her neighbor.

Text - ScarletHufflepuff • 8h I've followed the rules 100% that were laid out by my parents until I hit 18 and wanted to hang out with a group of friends. Thing is there needs to be adult supervision at all times when I go over to a friend's house. I got fed up, some of these people l've known for four years, and went anyway even though the hosting party's parents were not home. And nothing bad happened; all we did was play dungeons and dragons for five hours. Reply 4.4k ...

Text - SomeGuylnSanJoseCa • 10h I was a teen and found $1000 in an ATM. This was one of those ATMS that had a place where the money would drop to. This was the early 90s - I don't think they just drop it anymore - they all retract back into the machine if you don't take it. But during this time, that technology didn't exist. I went to the bank to return the money. I was sick of this bank (I was an American expat in Singapore who needed a bank account, long boring story, but wanted to explain why

I am a Paramedic and one day during the morning was rather busy so we only got some sandwiches and something to drink from said grocery store because me and my coworker thought dispatch would send us out any minute. When I got to the check out I was already fed up with them because they needed 15 minutes for our 2 sandwiches and there were about 10 customers

Text - winemomther • 4h I am a v tame person so my story is relatively lame. When I studied abroad, I had two guys hitting on me. One was an elitist who had a lot of money, the other was a sweet, vanilla-y dude. I went on one date with each and then a group of students went to the club together after the second date I had with Elitist. Elitist kept insisting he wanted to buy me a drink but I said no because 1) I wanted to spend time with my sweet guy and 2) I felt like that would mean I owe him

Text - Tokiw4 • 2h A simple one but a good one. There was a kid who sat in front of me in a highschool class. All year he would lean back in his chair, and would frequently lean his chair on my desk. One day I had had enough bullshit, so once he leaned forward I quietly moved my desk back a few inches. After picking himself off the floor, he never bounced his chair on my desk for the rest of the year. Reply 2 ...

Text - When I worked as a grocery bagger, the bosses would have us clean and sanitize the butcher shop. It took about an hour. They could pay us $8 an hour to do it, or pay the journeyman meat cutter his hourly wage, so of course they chose us. It was such shit work, and being younger than 18 I wasn't really supposed to be working around that specific area (knives, cutting machines, etc.) Customers would come during the process and want something from the case, and we would have to stop what we

I go to a place with top-quality beef, and I buy boneless ribeyes that cost $21.99|lb on a regular basis. For some reason on my last trip, there were two packages (4 steaks total) that were marked as pork chops for $6.99. I dropped them both in my cart and went on my way. Reply 451 ...
