All it had to be was a dumb marketing project with some giveaway stuff, but one "do you know who my father is" type just had to be involved. Overzealous and aggressive parents speaking on behalf of their children can lead to a lot of pain and suffering down the road, like this parent who blamed a teacher for their own kid not being in virtual class.

This guy asked the folks in Reddit's AITA community whether or not he was in the wrong for his reaction to learning that his girlfriend basically got him the same kind of gift that she gets anyone else in her life who she doesn't want to spend too much time and money on. With what might be no big surprise at all, people seem to be in collective agreement that it was a pretty lousy move on the part of the girlfriend.

When will the irritating scammers of this wild world ever learn that their scams are going to backfire on them at some point? This particular scammer thought they had some kind of airtight, foolproof plan for a free vacation, and oh boy were they wrong. We just love to see a scammer get their rightful comeuppance when it's all said and done!

With all the misfortune life likes to throw at people, there are moments when life has a way of singling certain people and things out in a way that's so unfair, it just becomes funny. To think that the universe has an agenda against one particular person or thing may be severe, but sometimes it sure seems like it.

Some people are more stubborn than others, and sometimes that frustrating stubborn stance goes hand in hand with acts of stupefying, blind ignorance. Take this IT dude's coworker who decided to have nothing short of a hysterical meltdown over what she viewed as a faulty printer. Well, one thing leads to another and before you know it, she's created a fire in the office. To make matters more dramatic, she decided to put the fiery papers on the counter instead of into the sink. It sounds like logic was a lacking quality from the beginning in this tale of tech support.

On the one hand, it's nice to live in your own peaceful home without the risk of further fires. On the other hand, how much sympathy is the right amount to extend in order to keep your extended family off the streets? It's a bit of a rough one. Those kooky kids learn all sorts on the Tik Toks, like this dad who found out his daughter who filed her teeth for TikTok.

Everyone wants to leave work early, but sometimes it takes a few design fails to get there. Ill conceived products, idiotic font choices, and some less-than-mastery of photoshop get people into some weird situations. Adding to that, the pesky thing with reality is that sometimes things don't fit where you want them to. Enough "not my job" moments of failure have proven that.
