Tiger Woods And Friends Attempt "Happy Gilmore" Swing, Years Later


It's always fun to see someone break out the infamous, instantaneously recognizable "Happy Gilmore Swing." You've just gotta love the part when Rory nonchalantly crushes a ball right into the $10K launch monitor, and everyone else just carries on as usual. 

Girl Dances To Hydraulic Press Videos, Internet Peaks


TikToker @smacmccreanor has taken the internet by storm with her series of videos which depict her passionately dancing to various hydraulic press videos. The concept itself is simple (?) yet genius.

The Time A Guy Crashed Into Bees


Crashing your car because of your own poor decisions is one thing. Crashing your car into bees is a whole other thing. Getting on the news over your bee crash is on another level entirely. But having your story narrated by the most salt-of-the-earth men this Earth hath wrought is just a recipe for true greatness. Rarely does anyone live a sequence of the events that any self-respecting writer wishes they had thought to put in an Adam Sandler movie.

Customer Gets Mad Over Extra Time, So They End Up Getting Less


What a satisfying tale of petty revenge. We love nothing more than coming across a boss who is actually ready to back their employee. We read far too many stories about corrupt bosses and maniacal managers that never should've been put in their positions of power in the first place. But in this case, finally, we have a boss actually backing their employee. Let's make this the new trend, world. 

Librarian Humor That Looks Way Different With No Glasses


We should all probably spend more time reading books about philosophy and history, and less time reading the Facebook ramblings of our most insane family members but hey, there's a time and a place for everything, right? So here's some fun library humor. For something bordering on educational, here are some history memes and a twitter thread on how the Appalachian mountains are older than most things.

Tumblr Thread: Being The Purveyor of Fine, Succulent Clown Meats


Some of us dream about taking tests in our underwear. Some of us dream about being in a play and not knowing our lines. Most of us just dream about eating big heaps of cereal that looks like our mom using a spoon that looks like our dad. But this Tumblr user experienced a nighttime sequence so peculiar and mystifying that it had to be put into words. For some more tumblrness, here's the wholesome tumblr thread on a grandma who summons a demon and calls it Todd.

IT Memes For The People Really Holding Up Society As We Know It


It doesn't take a bunch of tech support stories or tech support gore to realize that IT people are the backbone of our society. Heck, all it takes getting locked out of your machine on a busy workday to realize that the tech support people are titans among men. Or, more specifically, Atlas holding up the heavens on their backs.

Most Corrupt Things Employees Have Witnessed Their Bosses Do


This fun AskReddit thread has employees disclosing the most corrupt things that they've ever witnessed their bosses do. The reality is that there are far too many people that are employed and put in positions of power within companies, that really never should've been put in their positions in the first place. Maybe this AskReddit thread will serve to make you feel a bit better about the times that you had to put up with a wildly delusional, downright maniacal boss during your career. To keep the boss drama train rolling check out this recent post about an unreasonable boss who threatened a deli guy's job, so he basically just said "okay."

Slumlord Won't Let Company Out Of 5 Year Lease, Gets Just Deserts


There are far too many slumlords and greedy landlords in this world that try to pull fast ones on completely well intentioned tenants. In this case though, the company that wasn't being let out of their five year lease managed to pull a swift and highly effective pro revenge on a slumlord who quite honestly needed to get their just deserts at one point or another. If this pro revenge tale got you going, check out another pro revenge tale about this Karen who got evicted, lied about her eviction, and then ultimately lost to the landlord in court who had to use the old lease on file.

Bridesmaid Gets Kicked Out Of Wedding For Cutting Hair, Sues Bride


Weddings undoubtedly have an uncanny knack for bringing out the very worst in people. It's a time that's absolutely ripe for reactions to get blown way out of proportion, and what naturally results are all kinds of dramatic blowups that really needn't ever happened in the first place. However, in this case, it sounds like the bridesmaid who was kicked out of the wedding by the bride after getting her very pricey haircut, had her understandable reasons. If you enjoyed this AITA drama, check out some more wedding drama with this bit about a groom's brother who called the fiancée a gold digger, and then proceeded to get kicked out of the wedding.

Guy Forgets Girlfriend's Birthday, Background Checks Her, Cringe Ensues


Perhaps a cringe-packed post like the one we have here will serve as all the motivation necessary for other people out there to mark their calendars with their partners' birthdays right now. To go ahead and run a background check on your partner because you can't remember their birthday is definitely a bold and inadvisable move, but hey, it's too late for this dude now. Hopefully the lesson was learned that day. 

Management Demands Doctor's Note From Sick Employee, Malicious Compliance Ensues


Nothing quite brings the blood to a boil like having to deal with a manager who is so lost in their own power trip that they can't be troubled to express a generally acceptable level of human empathy. It sounds like "By The Book Bob" was managing in such a style that it was only a matter of time before he got put in check with some sweet, malicious compliance. If this story got you going, keep feeding that malicious compliance fix with this post about a belligerent neighbor damaging a family's car, refusing to own up, and then having the whole thing backfire terribly.

Wholesome Twitter Thread On Different Ways To Express Love


Look, man. Love can be a terribly complicated thing to try to express. Some people were born with the ability to express that absolute all-consuming, lighting in a bottle feeling that is love, and others experience their struggles with it. The point is that if the love is really there, and it's real, it'll find its way out into the open eventually. Maybe a nice and wholesome thread like the one we have here from Twitter user @neurowonderfulwill serve to help the cause. 

Employee Gives Two Weeks Notice, Hotshot Manager Tries To Fire Employee, Gets Demoted


Power can certainly get to some people's heads more than others. It sounds like this new hotshot manager was inconsolably blinded by the newfound power that they found themselves in possession of due to their new position. Well, let's just say that after the employee they kept trying to fire had had enough, they got their rightful comeuppance. Would've loved to have seen the look on the hotshot manager's face when they realized they'd managed to get themselves demoted. 

Boston Dynamics Has A Parkour Robot Now


Well, they've finally done it. Robots have covered so much ground in just the past few years that they've made it to 2007. With parkour under their belts, it'll be no time until they master planking and develop diet coke and mentos technology.
