They told her that it wouldn't work, but she wanted to get all that hair bleached and flew to close too the sun. It only seems fitting that she end up with the haircut that at least tells other people who they're dealing with. For another tale of Karen, here's a Bridezilla Karen who ended up looking like a pauper at her own wedding.
The work of a real life hero right here. Nothing warms the spirits like seeing a scammer get their rightful comeuppance. For some more juicy content about a scammer being defeated, check out this scammer who thought they had a foolproof plan for a free vacation, and had to pay for it in the end.
Now this right here is what the internet is for. Did you wake up today thinking you'd eventually stumble upon a video showing a chicken farmer who has seemingly been possessed by an actual chicken? Nope, you probably didn't. But here you are anyways. The laughter is truly infectious.
It can be a real wakeup call to hear what a total stranger thinks of the place you and your family have lived their whole lives. For all you know, every person you live with, work with, know and love could be summed up in someone's brain as "the place with all the corn." Depending on where you live, your culture might measure space and time differently than someone else. Here are some non-americans' biggest culture shocks they felt when visiting.
At first, you might be thrown off, cause it almost seems like they're not about to be an entitled, choosing beggar. In short time though, things escalate, and suddenly we have a choosing beggar showing their true face. They basically assumed that the very stranger helping them with computer tips, would also pay for the parts they recommended for purchase. Nope, that's not how it works.
This viral video from TikToker @gurpreet_gillx sparked some debate in the comments section over whether or not the food hack was ethical. There's no denying that broke college kids can get pretty creative when it comes to devising new ways to eat as cheap as humanly possible. Sometimes, that can result in some questionable decisions. A fair number of folks suggested that they weren't in the wrong for doing this, because it isn't any money out of the Domino's employees' pockets, and the corporation itself isn't exactly going to get hurt in the process.
Oh man, buckle right on up for a feels trip. This sweet old lady never met a mean and inconsiderate call center manager's attitude with anything but patience and understanding. It's amazing how, considering what she was going through with the love of her life. Fortunately, there was a particular call center employee on hand that prioritized helping make this lady's request come true, to just shine a little bit of light on the darkness of the situation. Beautiful stuff, really.
In any system that claims it pays you based on your output, it's important to know what you're worth, and 80 cents is something most people would see as an insult. This person weighed his options and decided what a better use of his time would be. It's not uncommon for employers to make workmore difficult than it has to be, as evidenced by situations that made people go "screw this, I'm out." For more shenanigans over miniscule amounts of money, here's a dude who got hounded over trivial debt and ended up mailing them a dime.
Man, oh, man, this landlord sounds like they were a waking nightmare. Fortunately, the tenant knew their rights and was able to successfully overthrow the terrible landlord in court, to the tune of a six figure sum. On top of that, the tenant goes on to become the building manager. Talk about a fairytale ending.
It's rare to be in love with your job, so naturally, most of us are going to try and get by with the absolute bare minimum. Usually it works out, but sometimes the cracks begin to show and the "not my job" moments start to pile up. Oh, we'd all love to to make everything look perfect, lined up, spelled right and on point but frankly, that's not my job.
Man oh man, proceed with caution, because this little AITA thread has an innate ability to stir up some fiery emotions. It sounds like it was a rather inconsiderate, senseless day at the workplace for the folks involved in this story. Hopefully everyone learned their lesson, and that restaurant cleans up its act ASAP.
It's remarkable how some folks end up in the positions of power that they do. It sounds like the manager in this tech support tale was proactively playing with fire, and eventually all of their lazy, deceptive antics caught up with them. The employee getting the promotion is really the icing on the cake. If you're looking for some more entertaining tech support content, check out this tech support tale about a belligerent customer who refused to cooperate with tech support.
Sometimes, it's fun to revisit the past and appreciate just how strange some of the things were throughout the journey that was muddling through the education system as a young one. This Twitter thread from @melmadara will likely resonate with many folks out there. It might even make you feel far older than you did before. If you want to keep the nostalgia going after this thread, check out some nostalgic snacks from the 90s and 00s.
Most every parent wants to teach their kid to be self sufficient, but there's a lot of disagreement on how to get there. Some parents opt for the "tell my child to tie their shoes without telling them how" approach and needless to say, there are mixed results. Making your kid try something and fail at it is a way to make them learn, but most parents would agree it's usually better to set them up with situations where failure doesn't mean death. Traumatizing your kids may come to bite you in the end when it comes to the dumbest things people had to convince their parents not to do.
Whether you're a fan of Taylor Swift's music or not, it's interesting to learn about the long, long history of musicians signing horrible deals early in their careers and getting completely shafted later on when it comes to the rights of their own music. It's crazy to think that there are recording artists today don't own their own music, like we're still living in some old-timey Motown story of forgotten legends and cartoonishly evil businessmen. @ThatsMauvelous details the weird legal stunts Swift had to pull to get the rights to her music back from her old label.
Anyone who has a twin knows that having a family member who looks exactly like you can result in some hilarious, if not panic-inducing situations. It sounds like the dude on the other end of this interaction had no idea just how close he was to taking some pepper spray to the face. For some more humorous, twin-inspired content check out this AskReddit thread about the best switcharoos that twins were able to pull off.
The internet can oftentimes be a place where people break out the kinds of questions you'd never encounter in a real life scenario. This can make for quite the absolutely ridiculous series of interactions. Due to the recent news that Yahoo News will be closing its gates forever come May 4th, we decided it was only right to pay homage to the strange land with all of its comical absurdity, by spotlighting some of the best interactions to come out of the site.
We're not sure what was going through this Karen's head. To have the nerve to literally expect your kid to be able to just steal another kid's toys, just because, escapes all rhyme and reason. It sounds like the dude on the other end of this put her in her place, and it wasn't the first time -- nor will it be the last time. Some folks are hurting for the reality check more than others.
Someone on AskReddit got a thread going about people's craziest "you don't see that every day" moments. Life has a funny way of surprising us just when we're settling into our respective routines. As you get older and grow more accustomed to being endlessly surprised by whatever life decides to throw your way on a given day, you pretty much can just settle on into a philosophy of expecting the unexpected.
The only logical next step is to write a note back to the classmate that wrote him this one, and say "not much, you?" But, just make sure that they have to wait at least 10 years before reading that.
