There might be a fair number of people out there who can connect with this mastiff's admirable level of commitment to complete an agility course, even though the dude might not exactly be built to tackle this kind of competition. Well, hey, that didn't stop him from leaving it all out there.
Massive shout out to the coast guard operator for maintaining a truly heroic level of calm. This paddle boarder was understandably shook from the moment the call started. However, as these coast guard operators are trained to do, nothing short of an unwavering sense of calm was delivered from the other end of the line.
Depending on where you are (or even in the more rural places), Starbucks just has an uncanny knack for attracting massive crowds, and its fair share of impatient customers. This video from TikToker @a_problem_like_maria does a terribly effective job at portraying just what kind of busy chaos can ensue a mere 10 minutes after Starbucks has opened. Let's just say that this video should be shown to any Starbucks customer who has been possessed by inconsiderate, downright rude impatience. That's a literal sea of tickets right there.
We can always count on the wonderful and wandering minds of the Tumblr world to shine some light on new topics that people might otherwise be unknowingly holding misconceptions about. Clearly, this Tumblr thread is trying to break down the assumptions that are being held about chickens and eggs, and local farming in general. Always interesting to hear different sides of the story. Check out some more tweets and gems to make the day more tolerable over here.
An HOA or Homeowner's Association can either be a minor inconvenience or it can be costly dictatorship, depending on who's on the board. People have to deal with nightmare HOAs where they get fined for having visible garbage bins.Some people defeated the Queen Karen of their own HOA. And others just looked forloopholes in the HOA's monthly fees. The bureaucracy never ends.
Some people really get into their whole birthday cards game. Of course, it can be even more fun to go against the grain and give people birthday cards that definitely aren't doing exactly what's expected of them. So, we have this humorous little thread where people give out birthday cards that have the hilariously wrong ages on them. It makes for an entertaining little trip. If you're looking for some more gold from Tumblr check out this funny Tumblr thread about an Ultima online player unleashing a nuclear revenge as a tavern owner.
There's a stereotype about American tourists being obnoxious. It's easy to picture us waddling around, touching artifacts and complaining about "how run down this ancient castle looks." Lucky for us, sort of, a few other big and rich countries are also known for having horribly entitled tourists. Of course it's bad that there's more entitlement in the world, but it's at least better to not be the only ones that everyone completely disdains. But here are some really dumb and obnoxious things American tourists said and did. And here are some dumb complaints people had for their travel agency as well as some weird habits in the U.S.
For the most part we're all bored, boring people. And as turgid lumps of wasted space, we need some funny tweets and tumblr gems to quote later. That way we can trick other boring people into wanting to be near us for some amount of time. Were we always this repulsive and dull? Honestly it's hard to remember. But what is easy to remember are tumblr gems and funny tweets to cackle at.
The thing about taking those much needed vacations and potentially even dipping your toes in the warm waters of some faraway paradise is that you're banking on your work life not eclipsing the dreamy sunsets of whatever destination you've chosen. By the sound of it this company was put in a bit of a tight spot because the supervisor could've done a more effective job at leaving all the important info that they needed to leave, with the company, before they dipped out.
The road of acquiring more and more wealth can give way to all kinds of curveballs. There's something about having tons of money and then developing quite the strange array of personal tastes. Maybe it's because that bank account is gleaming with such a heavenly glow that a person with enough wealth just can't be bothered to play by the rest of the world's series of rules -- unspoken and spoken. Naturally, that results in some rather ridiculous scenarios.
There are far too many examples of senseless, outright ruthless individuals going out of their way to unleash havoc on perfectly peaceful mailboxes. Seriously, it ain't easy being a mailbox in this world. Fortunately, there are also a decent number of ingenious individuals that are more than ready to use their engineering brainpower to craft invincible mailboxes. If you got a kick out of this pro revenge story, check out this pro revenge story where a dad crafted an invincible mailbox amidst a road rager's maddening antics.
This isn't the first time that we've read about the HOA driving an otherwise completely peaceful homeowner just a little bit crazy. Unfortunately, the HOA seems to attract all kinds of Karens and petty tyrants that get caught up in wielding whatever "power" they have. So, it's nice enough to see someone successfully waste the HOA's time. I wonder just how much of that time that they'll be able to successfully end up wasting. For another tale of malicious compliance check out the time that a customer asked a restaurant to cut a burrito in half, and then how the restaurant maliciously complied.
Seriously, it's a wonder that some people are able to get their licenses. The fact that we have to share a road with these kinds of wildly clueless folks is just a little bit unsettling. And seriously, what's with people just not using bungee cords to tie their stuff down? Nope, better to take the life-threatening route like the mind titans in this gallery.
Maybe it's the state of public schools. Maybe it's parenting. Maybe no one cares. Maybe reading books is just lame. Either way, we see a whole lot of spelling fails out there that don't need to be out there. No one wants to be a stickler about this kind of thing, but when you see your third person of the day say talk about how they're taking things for granite and asking you to be more pacific, it wears you down. Here are some more regrettable and dumb spelling fails.
There's nothing like being out and about, taking a sweet inhale, and then realizing that you've unfortunately swallowed a big ole bug. At least this news reporter maintained a sense of humor about the whole situation. He was also clearly ready to go after the event presented itself.
