Choosy Beggars And Other Greedy Creatures


These choosing beggars and their wildly irrational demands just keep coming out of the woodwork. There's no possible way to peacefully negotiate with people that insist on spending zero money, when a fixed price has already been clearly listed.

Food Shop Ghosts Employee, Employee Steals Their Workforce


Oh boy, this food shop vastly underestimated how far an employee would go to carry out a successful, brutal pro revenge. They should've just done the right thing off the bat, but instead they opted for the shady ghosting move. 

1.

Text - r/ProRevenge + Join u/CamoUnderwear • ly I thought "ghosting" was for Tinder dates, not employees. Mobile user, formatting, etc etc TL;DR at the end So l've been working for a food shop for about 3 years now. The place is an absolute hellhole. This past year, we've had 7 general managers, and double that for the amount of associate employees to roll through. The turnover rate is ridiculous. That being said, I am the only employee to know how to do everything at that store because l've bee

2.

Text - I went home about a month and a half ago for fall break (I'm a college student whose hometown is out-of- state). I told the new manager, Josh, who started a week before I left, the date that I would be back (our fall break is Wednesday-Friday and then the weekend). During the break, I was kicked out of our groupchat and I also noticed our employee app (Jolt, if anyone cares) was saying that I wasn't registered to a company anymore. So, I texted our general manager. No answer. Then I text

3.

Text - I thought about going to the store and trashing it (the idiot didn't collect my keys to the store, and I know they wouldn't have changed the alarm code) but I didn't want to be legally accountable. So I got a new job, had to take a slight pay cut. But I worked my way up fast and became a shift manager again, and now l'm a department manager (now working at a local grocer). The revenge? I've hired the entire staff from my old job. Being that I know how lazy Josh was, he wouldn't have learn

Tumblr Explains The Origins of Losing The Game


Sorry everyone. "The Game" is something many of us played and only succeeded in losing, and now it's time to once again take up that heavy mantle of failure. When one Tumblr user asked what the hell all this game losing was about, another was compelled to explain the burden so many of us live with the this day. For more Tumblr, here are various Tumblr gems to keep the day moving.

1.

Text - rainnecassidy If you're old enough to remember it, you just lost The Game. raggedyanndy

2.

Text - proncus I have no idea what's going on here witchaj Back in the early aughts, when many mil- lenials were in high school, before Facebook and Youtube, The Game began. No one knows who started it, but the moment we learned we were playing it, we began to lose. The goal of The Game is to forget you are playing The Game for as long as possible. The rules of The Game are as follows: Everyone is always playing The Game all the time; at school, during breakfast, at night when you

3.

Text - are asleep, etc. The Game never ends. The moment you remember that you are playing The Game, you lose and must immediately announce to those around you, "I just lost The Game!" thus making them remember they are also playing The Game and causing them to lose as well. Upon losing, you begin The Game again. Sometimes players could go weeks or months without losing, sometimes only minutes. At the height of The Game's popularity, it became common to see people at events such as Comic Con or m

4.

Text - thrived on the chaos, taking great pleasure in the cries of their victims. Most people eventually grew bored of The Game, and many began to claim they won by choosing not to care about it anymore. Some rely on a particular XKCD comic strip or Tumblr post to lend a sense of legitimacy to their feeling of victory. They are fools. It is impossible to win The Game. There is only losing. Only a few diehards remain loyal to the rules. The drop in popularity has allowed many to keep from losing

5.

Text - of real time auditory feedback when causing others to lose, The Game will likely fade back into obscurity once again. Someday when we are old and gray, our grandchildren will innocently ask us to play a game of checkers, and we will shriek and shout until the whole nursing home joins us in defeat. Death is the only release from The Game. Source: rainnecassidy #lol #gosh i remember this #but also #noo0o

Tumblr Thread: The Uniquely Depressing "Fun Pizza" Saga


Leave it to Tumblr to let one image of fun pizza inspire a way-too specific story of exactly how a story of one "fun-pizza" could go own. It's uncanny how easy it is to picture all of this. For more tumblr food stories, here's a thread on why super coffee is not a great idea, and a very creative story about sandwich demons.

Twitter Thread: Stranger Than Fiction History Behind Roman Ring


This fun and educational Twitter thread from @OptimoPrincip takes a look at the mysterious history behind an enigmatic Roman ring. As it turns out this ring very well could have inspired J.R.R. Tolkien's own ideas behind the infamous Lord of the Rings trilogy. 

1.

Text - Gareth Harney @OptimoPrincipi 1) A stranger than fiction Roman ring mystery thread: this enigmatic Roman gold ring was found in a ploughed field near Silchester in 1785. The square bezel has a portrait of the pagan goddess Venus, inscribed backwards SUNEV for use as a signet ring by the owner. Curiously...

2.

Trophy - Gareth Harney @OptimoPrincipi · 4h Replying to @OptimoPrincipi 2) ...around the ten-sided ring is crudely inscribed the identity of a later Christian owner, "Senicianus" who it proclaims with spelling errors "lives in god" (vivas in deo). A ring passing from pagan to Christian hands - certainly possible in the 4th century - but remarkably.. VIPIE

3.

Text - Gareth Harney @OptimoPrincipi · 4h 3)... at a temple to the mysterious British god "Nodens" 80 miles away in Lydney, Gloucestershire, a lead curse tablet (defixio) was later discovered. On the tablet a man named "Silvianus" complains that his gold ring was stolen and he suspects "Senicianus" was the culprit! ... DE'VO NODENTI ŠIUIANVS ANILVM LERDEDIT DE MEDIAMPARTEM DONAVITNODENTI LNTERQVIBVS NOMEN SENICIANINOL!S DETMITTASSANITA TEMDONIC LERFEL VSQVITEMPL DENTIS

4.

Ring - Gareth Harney @OptimoPrincipi · 4h 4) Silvianus deposited the curse tablet and donated at the temple half the value of his lost ring, in the hope that the gods would "permit no good health to Senicianus." In 1929 the archaeologist Mortimer Wheeler would make a connection between this curse and the gold ring...

5.

Text - Gareth Harney @OptimoPrincipi · 4h 5) Wheeler consulted a certain young J.R.R. Tolkien, Professor of Anglo-Saxon at Oxford University, to work on the etymology of the curious deity Nodens and explore the possible connections with the enigmatic Roman gold ring...

6.

Text - Gareth Harney @OptimoPrincipi - 4h 6) Soon afterwards Tolkien would begin creating his legendarium of Middle-earth with both "The Hobbit" and "The Lord of the Rings" revolving around the magical, golden and often-stolen One Ring that grants the wearer invisibility. Had Tolkien been inspired by the Silvianus ring?

7.

Ring - Gareth Harney @OptimoPrincipi · 4h 7) We might fancifully conclude then that in the mid 4th century AD, Silvianus - a late-Roman man still clinging on to the old pagan gods, had his beloved Venus ring stolen from him by a Christian that he knew named Senicianus. The pious thief then rededicated the pagan ring... IN1S

8.

Ring - Gareth Harney @OptimoPrincipi · 4h 8) ...with his own ironic inscription, saying he "lives in God". The bitter Silvianus then travelled to an ancient pagan temple to deposit a curse on the Christian thief. We know the ring was subsequently lost but are left to imagine if fate ever caught up with Senicianus...

9.

Yellow - Gareth Harney @OptimoPrincipi · 3h 9) Two millienia later, both the ring and the curse on its thief are both discovered 80 miles apart. Wheeler and Tolkien, titans in their fields, analyse the mysterious artefacts and just maybe, the gold ring goes on to inspire one of the greatest works of fantasy literature. END 9 17 27 41 661 Gareth Harney @OptimoPrincipi · 2h For those interested in seeing these ancient artefacts... The Silvianus Ring is displayed at @TheVyneNT, Hampshire. The curse

Tumblr Post: Vegans Called Out For Not Eating Honey


This quick and informative Tumblr thread addresses vegans and their occasional decision to not eat honey. It might be un-bee-lievable for some vegans to hear, but honey is where it's at. Check out another quality Tumblr thread, with this thread about a contortionist's quest for a burrito leaving a 7-11 cashier traumatized.

1.

Text - A vampiregirl2345 Vegans of tumblr, listen up. Harvesting agave in the quantities required so you dont have to eat honey is killing mexican long-nosed bats. They feed off the nectar and pollinate the plants. They need the agave. You want to help the environment? Go back to honey. Your liver and thyroid will thank you, as well. Agave is 90% fructose, which can cause a host of issues. Bye.

2.

Text - vertiga Beekeeper here! Just wanted to say that the fact that vegans won't eat honey is very silly. Harvesting honey does not hurt bees. The invention of modern moveable-frame hives means we can remove a selected frame, extract the honey and return it without killing a single bee.

3.

Text - If we destroyed the colony to harvest honey there would be no bees for next year, and beekeepers are incredibly careful to keep their bees healthy and thriving. We take *excess* honey that they don't need, and it stops the hive from becoming honey-bound, meaning that there's so much honey the Queen has nowhere to lay eggs. And if the winter is harsher than expected and the remaining honey store runs low, we feed the bees plenty to make sure they survive. We also make sure that pests are c

4.

Text - Keeping bees in properly managed hives where they don't starve or die from preventable disease is much better for them than being left to fend for themselves, and they're far too important to be left alone. All the fruits and vegetables that vegans *do* eat couldn't exist without bees, and the hives which pollinate those crops also produce excess honey which the beekeepers can sell to help keep themselves and their hives going. TLDR: BUY THE HONEY, HELP THE BEES. Source: vampiregirl2345 1

Airbnb Hosts' Worst Experiences With Guests

She was a bit fussy about hygiene so I was surprised that she didn't mind loads of strangers doing all sorts in her bed. It is baffling, clearly the lure of money is great for some people.
