Weather Man Gets Pranked, Takes It Like A Champ


Our hearts go out to the Hugh(s) that were watching this live broadcast. With that being said, the weather man handled the prank like a champion. His reaction was nothing but wholesome. He had just the kind of infectious laughter that gets the rest of the room going.

It's a lovely AskReddit thread like the one we have here that can spare many of the dudes out there all kinds of stumbling around, when it comes to having to gain wisdom through experiences and failures. Maybe some of these will actually help you out in life. For a bit of a twist on the traditional life hacks, check out some bad life pro tips that can really jack up one's game over here

Things People Only Understood When They Got Older


When we're younger, we never think of ourselves as future old people. When you're 19, sleeping two hours a night and being an idiot, it's extremely hard to imagine yourself as someone with back pain and a lawn that these DAMN KIDS WON'T STOP PLAYING ON. It can happen suddenly. Most people can point to the moment they realized they were old. At least as people age they get to pride themselves on knowing things young people wouldn't get.

Stupid Facepalm Moments Of Human Moronitude


No person is immune to moments of stupidity. With that said, for some of us it just comes in episodes and for others it's a lifelong, chronic condition. Facepalm moments of profound dumbitude give us a window into the confusing lives of our world's morons. It's gotta be rough being an idiot, but it's worse for everyone else who has to deal with the fallout of facepalm moments made possible by the brutally stupid.

Guy Proceeds To Get Schooled On Car Safety And Physics


There's something innately satisfying about seeing some pure ignorance come face to face with its rightful comeuppance. In this case, we have a dude get nothing short of a proper schooling on just how car safety and physics works. Suffice to say, it's immensely satisfying.

Tumblr Thread: Batman's Normal Son, Brad Wayne


Batman's psychology has always held a special place in our hearts. Maybe it's the brooding darkness. Maybe it's the inherent weirdness of a billionaire genius detective martial artist who punches crooks in a bat costume. Maybe it's the extreme seriousness and psychological drama punctuated by tight pants. This time, Tumblr users explore the concept of a member of the bat-clan who's just like, a pretty okay guy. For more tumblr deep-dives into superheroes, here are Batman villains as talk-radio therapists and the saga of a mystified man who's able to identify superheroes.

Employee Gets Sick, Absolutely Incompetent Manager Fires Them


Work is already hard enough as it is without having to deal with a terribly incompetent manager who clearly never should've been put in their position of power in the first place. Fortunately though, this employee was able to put their ignorant manager in their place. It was only a matter of time before all of the manager's downright dumb antics caught up with them. 

Impatient Customers Attempt To Give Waitress Fake Tip, Other Customers Intervene


It's a story like this that really lends itself to the whole belief that many people can definitely benefit from working customer service jobs. When you're forced to grind through shifts in a hellish, steamy, downright frantic dish pit where it feels like time itself is moving along like it's wearing ankle weights, you can develop a whole lot of empathy for anyone else who has to work the same job. Or, if you end up working the floor and dealing with unfortunate waves of unruly customers, the same principle applies. 

The hope would be that people wouldn't need to suffer through those jobs to be reasonably mindful when it comes to respecting people working customer service jobs, but it's glaringly evident that that is not the case. So, when this customer was caught red-handed for trying to pawn off a straight up fake tip to a hard working waitress, their whole game was exposed. Seems like the appropriate move. Could the kid have approached the conversation with their mom a bit more gently? Sure, but otherwise they weren't in the wrong. 

Sister-In-Law Announces Pregnancy At Sibling's Engagement Party, Gets Called Out


We absolutely get that the excitement and wild anticipation that can go into a pregnancy can render people a bit senseless. However, there's still got to be some kind of commitment toward upholding just a bit, a little bit of social awareness. In the case of this sister-in-law it seems that the social awareness was pretty much entirely lacking. So, she ended up being called out. Can't imagine that it was an easy conversation to have, but it also seems like it was necessary. For some more wedding drama check out some of people's craziest wedding fails over here

Fun-Stealing Dullards Who Didn't Get The Joke


It's totally fine to not get a joke. We all have slow days or miss references or just don't wanna read. But when you're the kind of person who doesn't get a joke and then goes and calls someone an idiot because you didn't understand it, then buddy, you've just joined the ranks of mistaken bozos who didn't get jokes. Enjoy your fiefdom of crap from your throne of poor reading comprehension. Here's more people who aggressively didn't get the joke.

Unconventional Problems Skinny People Have


The skinny aren't really seen as a group that gets a ton of hate, but no population is without its unique obstacles. Like, even the tall have tall people problems from the constantly cramped. Upon review, it seems like the skinny have a much harder time floating than the rest of us, plus their lack of ass padding makes sitting a challenge. What a world.

Entitled Mom Tells Principal To Change Their Signature


You'd think that it's common knowledge that people don't want their signatures to be basic. The more basic your signature is the higher risk you end up running for people to try to run off and pawn that signature as their own. It's a risky business. Legible signatures that is. Well, this mom clearly has something else going on in her life, because she ridiculously insisted that the high school principal go ahead and change their signature. Like, you're kidding right? What kind of game are you trying to play here, mom? 

Babysitter Leaves Town, Entitled Mom Still Expects Babysitter To Show Up


It's a troubling tale like the one that we have here that can effortlessly convince someone to never consider taking up babysitting. You very well could end up having to deal with an aggressive, downright blindly ignorant individual like the mother in this story. I'm just trying to figure out why she continued to bother the babysitter with the pointless calls. Some people have a way of completely disregarding the very undeniable truth when they're repeatedly told it. 

Absolute Worst Things People's Roommates Ever Did


The last thing that you ever want to find yourself confronting is the grim realization that you've ended up living under the same roof as someone who is a psychotically inconsiderate, genuinely toxic individual. These people's stories of their all-time worst roommates might make you feel better about the times you've ended up weathering where you really weren't sure how you were going to get through having to live with an unforgettably bad roommate.

"Not My Job" Moments Of Professional Apathy


There are times at work when we couldn't be bothered to care. How much we don't care varies from person to person, and high-level ambivalence towards our jobs lead to some interesting "not my job" moments of failure. If one thing's for sure, you don't want the guy painting road lines to suddenly not give a rip if the lines are straight. Still happens though.

Guy's Dentist Happens To Know Everything, Might Be Real Life Superhero


We really hope that this is true. You can never really be totally certain if what's being shared by Tumblr's wonderful and wandering minds is actually rooted in truth, or a mere impressive work of fiction. With that being said, Dr. Z sounds like he's undeniably the world's best dentist and a bit of a heroic polymath as well. Like, just imagine having a pint with this guy over some good old-fashioned bar trivia. He'd probably put on such a stellar performance that he'd be promptly asked to never return. Too much knowledge can definitely rub some people the wrong way. If you want some more gold from Tumblr, check out these resplendent Tumblr gems of random hilarity
