If you find yourself either bored or boring it would behoove you to indulge in some funny tweets and tumblr gems to quote later. Those quirkmongers of the internet are out to make brilliantly stupid observations whether you like it or not. Even just a small pocketful of shiny tumblr gems is enough to turn today's snooze fest into a snooze vest, which is more fashionable, breezier and therefore more exciting.
There's a type of business that makes itself deliberately hard to navigate just so they can charge weird fees. Some companies will even hide or delay just how much interest they've charged just to bully customers into paying for late fees they didn't even know existed. Navigating the corporate landscape as one person can be an absolute nightmare, but after dealing with the absurd process of paying their own mortgage, this person realized they didn't have to put up with the nonsense. For another tale of financial absurdity, here's a guy who got hounded for a trivial debt and ended up mailing them a dime.
We'd bet that a lot of parents out there are bound to relate to this hilariously wholesome accident. Apparently the whole family ended up getting accidentally "sleeptrained" by a strangely adorable little stuffed worm toy thing. Whatever works, I guess.
Some neighbors are more unbearable than others. Some neighbors come with ungodly amounts of entitlement coursing through their veins, while others are actually genuinely nice to have around your vicinity. It sounds like this particular drama broke out over one homeowner not wanting to hook up a neighbor with free internet. Apparently that decision inspired their friend to call them out for being rude.
It's not like anyone wants to give you bad advice. Well, maybe these hilariously bad and dumb life pro tips might be exactly that. This incredibly dumb financial advice also falls into the category of "straight up don't do this." That said, times change and some previously ubiquitous good ideas find themselves no longer belonging, whether it be due to evolving technology, changing social ideas, or the rapid decline and corruption of various institutions.
Honestly, this manager sounds like he's all kinds of shady. It's moments like the one we hear about in this tech support tale that further demonstrate the value of hard working and aware tech support employees. "Joe" was trying to pull off what very well could've been a criminal action. Fortunately though, he came up short and got humiliated in the process.
In this day and age with all the social media apps and other kinds of technology available at our disposal you just never know what kinds of petty arguments might break out. In this case, it's not even petty so much as one dude being insanely entitled. The guy expects a perfect stranger to just give up his username. On top of the delusional expectation, he lays it on thick with the toxic disrespect. Check out some more juicy choosing beggars content with this choosing beggar who doesn't understand how time works.
It's small, it's stupid, and it's all too relatable for some of us. Let's be totally honest here, the guy was just trying to do the obvious thing and put a balloon in a cart. To his credit, this strategy would have worked with 99.9% of other objects. It must make you feel pretty bad to look around and realize that you, a grown adult, have just lost your balloon.
In our quest to be right about everything, sometimes it's worth it to pull over and smell the roses of "technically accuracy." Sure, these moments, jokes and memes might not be factually correct, but they're close enough to get credit. When it's hard to be right, one might as well go for technical accuracy that isn't exactly wrong.
If there's anything to learn from all the regrettable and dumb spelling fails we see on a daily basis, it's that absolutely no one is immune to really stupid mistakes when it comes to their mastery of the English language. Non-native speakers and people who have been speaking English their whole lives all succumb to the fun and frustration of the English language, and at this rate it looks like there's no way to stop it.
Thinking he was making the more affordable choice, this guy accidentally ate himself a few hundred dollar's worth of high-end beef. Without the knowledge that this is how restaurants price this stuff, we would probably have made the same mistake. For some other things to not buy, here are absurdly overpriced things people have seen.
Little did you know, but there's a whole tidal wave of passion going into the whole "ugly fruit" cause. Yes, all you have to do is read this thread from Dr Sarah Taber, and you'll quickly see that there's some substance to the whole matter.
Work is a necessary evil. Doing stuff basically sucks, but it's better than being hungry, wet and cold all the time, so the choice is pretty obvious. Naturally, most of us try to get through the day employing as little effort as possible, and sadly for some of us it really shows. "Not my job" moments of failure fill up our streets and living spaces, providing at least some ironic consolation that everyone, not just you, is doing the bare minimum. These moments of dubious professionalism are far from our best work, and it shows.
Any customer who goes out of their way to count the pieces of meat in a taco that's under a two bucks is really on one. Fortunately, the owner was able to run some quick math to shine light on why the taco costs what it does. Good luck to this customer being able to find anything cheaper. Sheesh. For another story involving a gross level of entitlement, check out this tale about a customer who wanted bigger wine glasses, and the malicious compliance that ensued.
Twitter user @PrismaticWastes decided to enlighten the world about how asymmetrical shopping mall maps actually translate beautifully for megadungeon maps. When you think about it, it makes sense. Malls are pretty much designed to make shoppers stay as long as humanly possible. Apparently college campus and zoo maps are also viable options.
Oh boy, the audacity of this Karen is unfathomable. What kind of human being literally takes it upon themselves to shred employees' leave requests? Nobody that's worth having around in the workplace. That's who. As you can imagine, Karen's shady "business practices" ended up coming back to be her ultimate undoing in the end. For another wild Karen story, check out this tale about a salon Karen who argued her way into a new Karen haircut.
Many of us have gotten caught up in a bad day, and sometimes that bad day can result in someone momentarily refusing to act like an adult. Temper tantrums can break out at a moment's notice. If you find yourself having to deal with someone acting like a child for the silliest of reasons, you very well might be inspired to take a petty revenge like this person did at the ATM line.
Ghosting is a terribly common occurrence in this day and age. It could be a nasty manifestation of the multitude of dating apps and people just not being able to keep track of the plans they end up making with folks, or just being pure old flakey flakes. Well, let this dude's brief story about the implications of them ghosting their date serve as a cautionary tale to anyone else out there who could be considering ghosting their date. You never know what kind of plan the universe might have in store.
One of the best parts about watching a movie is being able to temporarily step outside whatever's going on in your own life, to get lost in the lives of the characters that you see on the screen. So, if you end up watching a movie that's plagued by numerous or just one gaping plot hole, it can be quite the frustrating, disorienting experience. Some plot holes are just too nonsensical to overlook. Maybe these people's observations about plot holes they can't get over to this day will resonate with you.
There are plenty of folks out there who have made nothing less of an art form out of donning different masks for different settings, with the ultimate purpose being to impress/manipulate those around them. It can get to be a pretty messed up situation. With that being said, this AskReddit thread has folks sharing the craziest, coolest things they were able to pull off just by pretending to fit in.
