There's so much pomp and circumstance leading up to Christmas that the holiday is primed for disappointment. As kids, it was easy to get our hopes up about a new bike, only to see those same hopes plummet when we unwrapped a used copy of Ben Hur on VHS. Was there even a lesson here? Maybe "don't expect too much from your Aunt Carol." Either way, bad gifts are at least worth seeing how your loved ones will panic and compromise on giving a golf trophy to a 9 year old.
With so many animals being pushed into the system, you can only name incoming cats "Snowball" so many times before you get bored and start using a random word generator. It seems like they've even freed themselves from conventional names and just started going for parts of speech and infomercial personalities. That said, even if their name is JG Wentworth, these cats are probably all better pets than Prancer, the most irredeemable dog.

We already knew that Rob Zombie is great dinner party and bat mitzvah music, so it only makes sense that it should also pair well with high energy, spandex-laden aerobic exercise. If only our buns could be steely enough to dig through all those ditches.
It doesn't matter what kind of day she was having before this, because it's over now. The heartbreak of a screw-up this fast and effortless is one of those things that takes a few moments to process, so it's nice she had some time to think about it. Sucks, man.
It's never a good start when your significant other demands that you corroborate all the lies she's fed her own friends and family about your relationship. And it's even worse when her fairytale version of events paints you as an insane weirdo who would ask a perfect stranger to be their girlfriend. And even worse than that, that she would blame you for "caring too much about what other people think." Absolute yikes. For some more wildness, here's the girlfriend who tried to kick out a cat and got herself kicked out instead.
Ladies, if your date ever does something like this and you find about it.... Run. Very fast and very far away. Cause that guy is a walking red flag.
Talk about unnecessary manipulation and in-genuine behaviour. Good on this waitress for alerting his date to his poor behaviour.
It's always an interesting time working for completely inept leadership. The unrealistic goals, absurd orders and impotent posturing of a bad boss makes for a pretty bad time. Sure, money can solve a whole lot of problems, but throwing someone a hundred dollar bill doesn't make them grow an extra three pairs of hands. For an actually cool boss, here's the manager who pulled a hire/fire switcheroo.
Sure, there's "takin' care of business," but the real law of everyday employment is "take care of literally just enough business to not get fired and hope no one notices." Some of us take this maxim to its extreme, and it results in some unprofessional "not my job" moments of failure. Sure, freeway lines are supposed to be straight but that's of little importance in the land of "not my job."
The internet can bring many things. Some of those things are cold facts and bad news. But the rest is a pile of weird observations, dumb stories, tumblr gems and funny tweets. Do we need a worldwide network of people sharing their intimate moments and weird nuggets of knowledge? Probably not but it's here now in the form of tumblr gems and tweets and boy is it going strong.
Having gone through a master's program to be lied to and paid ten dollars an hour must feel like a slap in the face. This kind of shenaniganry seems like the kind of thing that would only happen with bad drug deals and under-the-table contractor work, but it happens, somehow. Who knows what kind of employer would expect someone to stay after something like this, but the move has been seen before in instances such as this Karen who tried to trick a baby-sitter by lying about pay and calling it a typo.
Dungeons and Dragons is a great way to explore realms hitherto unseen by man, become a legendary warrior, learn unbelievable magical spells, and attempt to seduce monsters. Let these dungeons and dragons memes be the fuel for the creative fire that is your mind as you slay beasts and ignore work emails.
After this employee came in late, their boss decided to use the minor infraction as an opportunity to give them a raise in the most convoluted, yet effective way possible. There are so many bad bosses out there, like this boss who said employee computers couldn't idle, or this boss who tried to take priority over the army. But at the end of the day, it's the cool and competent bosses who we remember the most, like this boss who used an eye gag to remove problem customers.
When you think about your wedding as a child, you probably don't anticipate there being many, if any, cringeworthy moments. For 30 unfortunate couples, this was very much not the case. Between elaborate wedding cakes unfortunately plopping to their doom and animals making crude gestures during wedding photos, these fails are as diverseas they are hilarious. Thethought of wedding fails always brings us back to the Clergyman from Princess Bride…"Mawage. Mawage is wot bwings us togeder today. Mawage, that bwessed awangment, that dweam wifin a dweam." If you don't get the reference, we recommend looking it up.
At some jobs, the boss only really cares if the work gets done. At other jobs, the boss is so obsessed that employees are working every second of the day that it ends up making things less efficient. For example, this boss who demanded an endless task be completed, and ended up stuck with it. In this case, boss man was upset with the thought of anyone's computer idling. So naturally this employee figured out a way to make everyone happy.
For those of you who don't know, Warhammer 40,000 happens to be the most popular miniature wargame ever, especially in the United Kingdom. The first edition of the rulebook was published in 1987, and the ninth and current edition was released in 2020. Between the various editions and regular rule book updates, there just might be a few grey areas resting peacefully between the lines of the rulebook.
These users recount the absolute stupidest rules arguments they've had while battling to the death with no mercy or respite. The game is set in the grim darkness of the far future, where mighty armies clash on countless war-torn worlds and Humanity stands alone, beset on all sides by the threats of the heretic, the mutant and the alien. So yeah, serious business and we take the rules VERY seriously. If you don't agree you can get out and join this guy who went to a football game while his wife went into labor in the lobby. Karens, Karens of all genders everywhere.
