Man oh man, if you feel like you're having a tough day on the job just take a moment and listen to this throwback recording of Air Force General Godfrey McHugh being torn a new one by JFK. Apparently there was a bit of a lavish expenditure situation going on, and JFK was not stoked one bit about how the public would view the new purchase.
The act of passing out is quite the stressful matter. The fact that this guy somehow keeps himself so chill while he's literally continuously passing out onboard a rollercoaster is kind of hard to fathom.
There are some things that are better left to the imagination, and just generally never seen at all. While you probably wouldn't go and imagine that the prep process for something like Little Caesar's pizza sauce is an appealing thing to look at, this viral video from TikToker @tye_pearson really drives the point home. Apparently all that muck is just a ton of spices. Still looks pretty nasty though.
Relationships can unfortunately get messy very quickly. Especially in our younger years we can end up weathering all kinds of nonsense in the dating world. It just comes with the territory of not knowing any better until you gain some of that hard-earned life experience. Honestly, these people sound like they're probably far better off.
Where else can you find a plush doll with the crossover appeal of Goku and Stone Cold Steve Austin other than in the world of bold bootlegs and absurd ripoffs? Where do you find a 2 dollar copy of "Grand Theft Auto 9: Vatican City" other than the marketplace of knockoffs and off brands? Only in this strange land of copyright shenanigans can we find someone with such a desperate need for brand recognition that they would name their store 9 Eleven.
Sometimes all our computers and phones feel like boxes designed to make us angry and scared. That's a shame, since they can also be tools to remind us how generally people are pretty alright. For every entitled Karen who demands restitution for a kid's bike helmet scuffing her car bumper, there are tons of wholesome memes and blessed images to lighten up the mood. It's at least decent out there. People do wholesome things for the love of the game.
Oh man, if you've ever endured the consequences of a severe lapse in judgment, this guy's story might make you feel better about it. As it turns out, you most definitely should not leave cranberry juice that's been opened out in the wild. The thing about a whole lot of juices when they're exposed to heat for long durations of time, is that they can end up turning into alcohol terribly quickly.
Relationships are hard, and good advice can be hard to come by, especially when the world is so full of dumb and bad life pro tips to not do. These folks were asked to embody the world's worst marriage counselor and give advice that would result in irredeemably fractured relationships. So just do the opposite of what's in here and you're probably good to go. For some more playful relationship disagreements like mis-cut waffles and tangled cords, here are the annoying things that people's spouses do.
Life is a funny and humbling matter. We can be busy, caught up in our daily routine, and suddenly find ourselves confronted with a profound ego-shattering moment where we come to find that we really don't know as much as we thought we did. In this case, the strange information gap that's experienced is centered on what exactly a dandelion is. Check out some more gold from the wonderful world of Tumblr with this Tumblr thread about literary coincidences that got authors in hot water.
There's nothing quite like snooping through a stranger's cabinets, using their things, making a huge scene, being told to check your facts, getting defensive about it and then ending up being completely wrong. Where do they find people like this? For some more wildness, here are the worst houseguests people have experienced and a pregnant employee's shirt-tucking work revenge.
There's just something so sinfully sweet about a proper jerk getting their righteous comeuppance when it's all said and done. This client tried real hard to screw over a completely well meaning employee, by locking them out of the system. Well, that definitely backfired in glorious fashion. For another tale of pro revenge check out the time that a scummy collection agency attempted to mess with a guy's credit score.
Haily Lliff had quite the scare when she returned home from a trip to New York. As it turns out a raccoon had made of a bit of an entrance, and then just decided to post up for a while. While the event itself is surprising already, it's also pretty wild that a couple other folks were keen on sharing their own experiences with raccoons breaking into their homes.
The guy went through all this to have his meal weighed so things would be "fair" and by god he got his fairness. A hilariously similar thing happened with this customer who demanded a pound of wings and got less wings. With sassier staff, customer demands can go really off the rails like this rude gentleman who demanded no ice and got less than that.
With our relentless pursuit toward covering all the ridiculous life dramas and fails from the world, it can be dangerously easy to forget that there's also plenty of the good stuff out there. Funnily enough it seems as if so many of the world's blessed images involve animals being absolutely adorable. There's just something about the pure innocence of a dog who doesn't have a bone to pick with anyone, that can lighten an otherwise glum mood.
It was no ordinary day at the Disc Golf World Championships at Fort Beunaventura Park in Ogden Utah. Yep, that's because disc golfer, James Conrad had to go and launch what'll rightfully go down in the history of disc golf as one of the most impressive shots of all time. The crowd absolutely erupts too.
Few of us wanted to live-out many of the scenes of Dumb and Dumber, but if Harry and Lloyd could make it to Aspen on this "hog," these guys thought they could to. Spines and mini-bikes weren't built for this. A few tire changes and a brake adjustment later and they made it to aspen on about 7 gallons of gas. It's surprisingly wholesome, especially since they didn't kill a man in a diner or give a blind kid a dead bird.
The wild world of TikTok never fails to keep us on our toes. This time around we have a viral video from TikToker @bigbruva_77, where he can be seen providing a fascinating commentary on the fact that apparently pretty much everyone has been parking the wrong way. Just be careful. It might be hard to ever park the same after seeing this parking lot "life hack."
Man, remember the good old golden days when Cadbury eggs actually had cream inside of them too? This bit from BJ Novak where he explains the fascinating, troubling process of "shrinkflation" will truly never get old.
We are people who want answers. Sometimes the factual answers we crave aren't readily available, and it's a whole lot more satisfying and easy to just get clever about it. Hence, these technically accurate moments that aren't incorrect. Sometimes the best we can be is technically accurate and not wrong. Is that an easy cop-out? Yeah. Does it work? Sometimes, but not really.
Fear is the oldest emotion there is. And with that, there's a lot of stuff out there to feel weird and uncomfortable about. It doesn't even take that much for us to find something amiss. A misplaced balloon or a little too much smile in a dog's eye can have our minds spiraling over what's wrong. It doesn't even have to be all that sinister in the case of cursed images of internet weirdness.
I mean, this sounds like one awesome park ranger. He totally could've played that a different way, taken the side of camper Karen, and actually gone ahead with giving a perfectly peaceful, reasonable couple a hard time over nothing. However, instead he leaned right into the completely righteous revenge of reporting camper Karen for her loud and obnoxious music. Oh boy, to have seen the look on that Karen's face when she realized she'd been reported for all of her noise.
It can be a wildly disorienting experience to meticulously trace the effects of what seems to be a minor action, as it blossoms into all kinds of results further on down the road. The butterfly effect is a very bizarre thing, indeed. For another AskReddit thread that's along a similar vein check out this post about the biggest plot holes that people experienced in reality itself.
Variety is the spice of life, but trashtacular moments are the paper bag filled with gold spraypaint, and the world would be a completely different place without it. Probably more organized and less needlessly dramatic, but we are what we are. We stand, mouths agape at the garbage behavior of the world, hoping we don't get splattered with anything. We all have stories, from neighborhood porch pirates to the worst houseguests people have experienced.
Apparently there's something funny that happens to our brains and the specific brainwaves that they produce when they're in a warm shower for a while. Basically, a creative and ponderous state can spawn. In this state, the shower thoughts can really flow. You very well might find yourself cracking the code to some strange facet of life in such a way that you never would have otherwise. Check out some more shower thoughts that dispense insightful wisdom over here.
Liking things is good. It's important to like things. But as people, it's easy to get so wrapped up in our own likes and dislikes that we alienate those around us. One's obsession with their Jeep or their 9 dollar health shakes can get to the point where it becomes a personality trait people can't stand. Also grown adults who are way too into Disney are weird.
Oh boy, too many feels at once. May River rest in peace. Joel Burgess, the Director of Cappy Games, celebrated the beautiful life of River who was the inspiration behind Fallout 4's infamous companion, Dogmeat. In the emotional Twitter thread Burgess highlights some of the ways that they managed to infuse River's genuine characteristics with Fallout 4's Dogmeat character. River might be gone, but she'll never be forgotten. Perhaps this somber passing will give way to a new companion being implemented into the Fallout franchise.
It's almost refreshing to have a wedding drama that's not centered on a bride going full bridezilla mode. Yep, this time around we have what sounds like a terribly manipulative maid of honor who failed to put anyone but herself first, when it came time to make her friend's wedding festivities both mindful and special. Honesty, good on the bride for putting her friend in check. Hopefully their friendship is solid enough that they're able to make a comeback from the situation. Check out some crazy wedding fails from people over here to keep the wedding drama train rolling onward.
It's pretty wild to imagine yourself in a scenario where you're literally being interrogated by the authorities because of a purely fictional spy story that you wrote that just so happened to come way too close to a real life spy situation. If you're looking for some more gold from the wonderful wandering minds of Tumblr, then check out this Tumblr thread about how it pays off to ask the world's craftspeople when you're in doubt.
People can become complete senseless animals when they're put into an escape room. Maybe it has something to do with the claustrophobia that can naturally ensue when you're put into a maze of sorts, and the reality of making your grand escape can be quite delayed depending on the amount of brain activity going on with the rest of your team. Hopefully these ridiculous stories from escape room employees make you feel a bit better about any potential catastrophic fails that you experienced while navigating an escape room.
It's almost as if Costas doesn't really know where the sentence is going to end when he begins talking. He meanders through, trying to find just the right words to deliver this bone-shattering slam. Damn Bob Costas, save some for our dads.
This guy is literally the human version of a rain delay. Also, a moment of strong disapproval over the fact that managers insist on being so infuriatingly stubborn when it comes to not reversing a call after what was clearly a complete misunderstanding.
Man oh man, this guy's effort is appalling. No idea what on earth he must've been thinking. You can really feel the secondhand embarrassment just leaking from the screen.
Pizza delivery drivers see enough weird people even without getting mistakenly involved in crime. These dudes thought they could help cover their tracks by ordering an actual pizza when waiting for their "pizza delivery" but it only served to link this harmless pizza guy to their nefarious activities. The weirdness never ends for pizza delivery drivers.
On a strange level it's almost intriguing to witness what kinds of bullish displays of entitlement can present themselves when a wildly irrational choosy beggar is stirring up the pot. Just the way that a choosy beggar goes about rationalizing their lowballing behavior. It's something else, man. This particular choosy beggar was doomed from the very start. Good for the wedding caterer for not getting tripped up for a second, and standing their ground. For some more juicy content involving a wildly entitled human being, check out the time that an entitled customer demanded a salt-free burger, got just that, and pitched a fit.
As miserable as other people can make us, and as meaninglessly complex life can get, it's at least a good reminder that doing good things for other people actually makes us feel good. It's really not that complicated. To test your moral mettle, indulge in the shopping cart theory of morality. For some wholesomeness, here's a tumblr thread ageless matriarch that is mamaw or this twitter thread on this movie theater's favorite customer.
I mean, hey, while this is certainly a humbling and humorous revelation to have after so many years, it's also better to learn late than never at all. Maybe this is just the kind of informative post that'll help enlighten other folks out there that have been living out the uncomfortable existence that is putting up with athlete's foot.
It's a crying shame that the world is so full of tasty-looking temptations that look like food but aren't. There are beds that look like ice cream sandwiches, snakes that look like bananas, and boxes of mop heads that look like ground beef. If only we had the digestive capacity to enjoy a mop-burger, but alas. Things that look like tasty food surround us.
Our hearts truly go out to the people in this world that are working tech support. By its very nature the standard tech support job unfortunately brings with it the inevitable series of impossibly testy and ignorant customers. It's honestly a wonder that some of these people are able to make it in this day and age with things being as technologically-infused as they are. It sounds like this particular client wasted people's time to no end, and couldn't have cared less about it. For another ridiculous tech support tale check out the time that a customer believed that the internet literally runs on magic.
Yeah, we have responsibilities and goals, but every day we all have moments of boredom that must be destroyed. Tumblr gemscan temporarily muffle the voice in all of our heads that screams "why am I here?" Sure it's only a temporary fix, but nothing is really permanent in life anyway. So we do our best with tumblr gems to quench the forever thirst.
Professional life has one central tenant that we all try to abide by: try as hard as possible to do as little work as possible. Most of us are able to get away pretty well with this, but some of us fly too close to the sun and our lazy incompetence is seen in the form of "not my job" moments. Make way for glorious professional apathy.
The fact that this poor girl worked an extra job just to try to keep up with an affluence and inconsiderate family is just a tad bit heart breaking. On top of that, it sounds like this guy is just about as clueless as they come. Based off what he shared regarding his own financial situation, it doesn't seem beyond reason to suggest that he could've helped her out a bit. But on, instead it was just pure confusion on his part over why she wasn't joining the various outings. Um, maybe because the money was tight.
If there's one way to set yourself apart from the competition, it's clearly to make the extra effort to literally have your biscuits be baked by electricity. Of course, that goes without saying that plenty of other things are also baked with electricity. Triscuits just did a better job at capitalizing on the electric baking process with their actual name. Weird history knowledge is fun.
It sounds like this guy's wife was quite the trickster. The problem with repeatedly joking that you're pregnant is that eventually you'll end up losing some much needed credibility in the process. This scenario in particular brings to mind the whole "boy who cried wolf" predicament. Could the husband have kept his cool just a bit more? Sure. Also though, it sounds like he'd hit a breaking point of his own for when it came to being played around with.
No one of should be surprised when something bad happens. Well, you're allowed to be shocked when your above-ground pool gets filled with scooters or your freshly baked lasagna explodes all over your car. But it's important to remember that misfortune happens and it goes on. It's life. Of course things are like this. As long as we accept that chaos is unavoidable we can at least be present and move forward. Still sucks though. Misfortune and mayhem is just part of the deal, and it's covered somewhat regularly on Misfortune Monday.
The amount of time and effort that must've gone into mastering this song is nothing short of heroic. Seriously, mad respect to this guy. Oh, to have been in the crowd that day. Would've been one hell of a show.
Clearly, this gopher was just trying to get his work done for the day. Unfortunately (or fortunately for us), the pit bull had other plans in mind. I just love how calmly he continues to pester that gopher. The fact that things don't seem to escalate into any kind of dangerous situation is nice too. Just a couple pals muddling through a simple miscommunication problem.
Honestly, it's really the sweet, golden, cringeworthy silence that ties this whole video together. If only we could get a pure glimpse into what must've been flashing through the mind of Jessica when she realized that she was indeed, live.
Since the internet's been around we've had irrationally emboldened folks diving into the comments section to drop nuggets of pure, dizzying ignorance. Sometimes, other folks hit their breaking points. When those moments occur, people have a tendency to get absolutely crushed by the power of words. We definitely appreciate the spicy silvertongues that go the extra mile when it comes to being extra creative with their insults. Maybe this series of times that people got KO'ed by words will inspire you to unleash destruction of your own in the next YouTube comments section.
In our own lives, we find ourselves in inconvenient petty struggles that take up way too much of our time. While these challenges are cosmically small, they can grow to inconvenience our personal lives and become intolerable, forcing us to become creative problem solvers. For example, here's a dad who designed a masterful basketball hoop loophole and a guy who battled an unreasonable store owner who wouldn't update his phone number.
Sometimes people don't seem to understand that driving is a cooperative event. That means risky maneuvers like strapping a literal ton of garbage to the roof of your car or dangling a dryer out the back while pushing 70 down the freeway isn't exactly the best way to inspire confidence in the drivers around you. We get to see enough unsafe maneuvers at work, it just so happens people are compelled to do dumb crap on their commute too.
