Those tricky floor-fountains every city center seems to have are the bane of every dry, non-observant pedestrian. It only makes sense they'd go off at even less opportune times, like during an outdoor market for instance. It's a little reassuring that everyone has an off day, even the person with the keys to the fountain.
Superhero movies are here to stay and so, apparently, are their super strange tropes like superwomen smiling after being punched, "serious" superhero films taking place in insane asylums, and longing for some romance always leading to a loss of superpowers. "Doctor" Jordan Breeding is technically out this week, but thankfully The Incredible Spider-Professor Angry Hands Hammer Man is here to save the day!
We're not out here advocating acts of thievery in the slightest bit, but the way that Ellen went about calling out this audience member who was stealing, was pretty heartless. She didn't give the audience member any slack at all.
TikTok user @elizabethao037's video of her cringe-packed attempt at a hug garnered quite a bit of attention from amused folks near and far. It's no surprise. There's something hardwired into human beings where we're prone to enjoying seeing someone else struggle -- to an extent, of course. The struggle was certainly very real for this girl when she tried to go for that hug.
It's only a matter of time before you end up crossing paths with a toxic mess of a human being who blindly insists on spreading ignorance and entitlement into the atmosphere. This particular entitled Karen was really on one when it came to not being understanding in the slightest bit over some scheduling issues for her kid's guitar lessons. Fortunately though, the guitar teacher was more than ready to put Karen in her place.
There's no denying the fact that folks in the older generations experience their fair share of troubles when it comes to smoothly navigating all this crazy, advanced technology available nowadays. If anything, the funny fails that can result from the collective confusion is a humorous reminder of just how quickly things have progressed. For some more gold from Tumblr check out this Tumblr thread about foiling the psychic ice cream cat.
When the hierarchy gets overzealous and cocky, things can get out of hand real fast. This employee found themselves under direct orders to not double check a coworker's work, and low and behold, they wasted a whole bunch of money. At least there are times when all the blame falls on a supervisor, like this incompetent manager who demanded worse customer service and got all the blame.
The universe is stuffed to the brim with an infinite amount of mysteries. There's so much to this life that we'll never understand. To make it even more endlessly strange, many of us have experienced those unexplainable "glitch in the matrix" moments where it's as if reality itself bugged out for a hot second. This can manifest as weird patterns that escape logic altogether. So, buckle up and brace yourself for this rollercoaster of bizarre stories.
Contrary to the belief that pets just sit there and mope all day, many animals have rich inner lives filled with jealousy and rage. There's dogs out there herding lawn roombas and cats out there being eloquent, melodramatic divas. There's cats Lion Kinging other cats off balconies and jealous horses up to no good. Animals are just as petty and vicious as the rest of us.
There's nothing quite like the powerful nexus of emotions and demands that come into play when an entitled person goes all out with some extremely narcissistic wedding plans. But too often the shame storm they generate doesn't fall on them in full force. In this case, she found out that everyone thought she was being unreasonable, and decided to take some really unhinged steps to rectify it. For a more straightforward bridezilla story, here's one where a bridezilla ended up looking like a pauper at her own wedding.
Live with anything long enough and you're bound to notice some patterns. This tumblr user found that for some mystical reason, their cat knew exactly when there was going to be ice cream, so it became a process of tricking the cat. It fits into the long line of tumblr users who seem to notice things about their cats, like how cats are just eloquent enough to be melodramatic.
This world's clearly never going to run out of entitled people and their endless series of wildly irrational demands. In this case, we have a terribly entitled mother stage a temper tantrum after being rightfully rejected a doll that she wanted for her daughter. The thing about the doll is that it never would've been appropriate to have given away. Clearly though, the mom just wasn't able to peer through the thick veil of her own ignorance.
There are plenty of parents in this world that end up having to deal with terribly stubborn and ridiculously entitled children. However, every now and again there's a situation where the kid ends up genuinely financially struggling no matter how hard they've been trying to dig themselves out of the hole. The daughter in this scenario sounds like she wasn't in the wrong in the slightest, and if anything, the dad could've handled the situation with far more grace and understanding than he offered.
Life is a funny and strange thing. It'll oftentimes chuck curveballs our way, and remind us that there's so much we'll never be able to plan for. Sometimes, that can manifest in crossing paths with folks you haven't seen for years in the most unexpected of places, at the most unanticipated of times. If anything, those moments can serve as a great reminder to expect the unexpected.
You just never know if you're going to end up moving in next to an absolutely awesome human being, or end up living next to a waking nightmare. It's all a gamble. With that being said, this guy's low-key neighbor hero is crushing it with his accordion skills. A true treat for the ears.
