Dingbat Boyfriend Insists on Eating Peanuts Despite His Girlfriend's Serious Allergy, Won't Listen to Her

u/ThrowAway58585858853 has had an ongoing issue with her partner that has been approaching ridiculous levels. He has been bringing peanuts into her apartment even though she is deathly allergic. She has asked him kindly not to, yet the behavior persists. 

This idiot is an absolute nutcase. Imagine valuing a peanut over your partner's life. 

He is being completely disrespectful and unreasonable. Especially since her request extends, at this point, only to her own space, it is a massive red flag that he can't respect her space and medical requirements this early on in the relationship—time to send him and his peanuts packing.

I wonder if he's the same guy as the guy who sent his Tinder date to the emergency room after accidentally triggering her peanut allergy.

Is this their relationship evolving after all? Have they found true love? 

Harry Potter Obsessed Parents Force Their Fandom on Their Children, They're Now Getting Old Enough to Rebel

It looks like Ginny has some real rebellious energy going on here. True to her character, after all. 

It was only inevitable that our generation would find some way to torture our children. We're just doing it with obsessive fandoms instead of with forced athletics, piano lessons, and gymnastics like our Boomer parents did to us. 

It's one thing to enjoy something casually, be it fandom, sport, or team. It's another thing entirely to be wholly consumed by it to the point that it is everything that your life is based around. 

Branch out a little bit... Try something new. Get out of your comfort zone a little bit. You know? That's what life is about, after all. 

I can only imagine we'll see more and more posts like this as the children of more Millennials hit their teens.

u/LEAVEMEALOOOOOONE definitely has some things to work through with her parents. Here's to hoping that her parents see reason and let her live her own life. I bet she'll look back on this experience more fondly once she's older. 

People's Brilliant Ideas That Were Dumb Upon Review

If it was unclear already, we are stupid. We are stupid people with bad ideas. Most of the concepts that run through our heads are not functional in the real world. And the only thing that makes us even sound a little bit less-than-stupid is our ability to not say the stupid things we think at exactly the moment that we think them. So you're welcome, world. You're welcome that the amount of stupid things uttered isn't far larger thanks to our impressive ability to keep our mouths shut sometimes. We expect a deposit into our accounts on the morrow.

It could be caused by inebriation, tiredness or just our own lack of mental faculties, but everyone gets bad ideas. Sometimes our ideas are phenomenal, but that's only because we've just "invented" something that already exists. As stupid as our brilliant thoughts are, we can all have faith that even a stupid thing we invent could be used for something other than its intended purpose.

Guy Muds Himself Out Of Unfair Rental Charge

 It's happened to us all. You've arranged some kind of service like buying a ticket or opening a bank account. You're about to be done with this whole task. And then you see it. Some little note in the ledger. Just one little line that says "convenience fee" or "transaction charge," and next to it is a number. A number of dollars they expect you to pay because they're pretty sure you'll pay it "just because." This is a slap in the face. And face slaps are not to be taken lightly. They might as well have just tea-bagged your soup and looked at you as if that's standard procedure.

It's the worst feeling when a company tries to screw you over with a fraudulent fee and just expects you to pay it to make the problem (they created) go away. That's why it's so satisfying to see people push back against unfairness in any way they can, like this guy who got hounded for trivial debt and sent them a dime or this guy who battled a store owner who wouldn't change his phone number.

Brilliant Moves of Highly Variable Effectiveness

Intelligence is a variable thing. A lot of people are smart in some ways, but absolute garbo at other crap. There are brain surgeons out there with the emotional awareness of a cucumber. There are rocket scientists who brush their teeth in the morning and forget to turn off the faucet before leaving for work. If a brain surgeon and a rocket scientist had two kids, one would be a master of brain rockets and the other one would be sitting in a garbage can wondering why their chair has stinky water at the bottom.

It doesn't feel very good to be outsmarted. But at at the same time, it's worth having a chance to be the one doing the outsmarting. All we can really do is hedge our bets and try to be the outsmarter more often than the outsmarted. Of course it's often impossible to tell when you've been outsmarted, so maybe we're all just a bunch of fumbling rubes. For some brilliance in the form of bold shenanigans, here are some mad lads who made the world their big briny oyster.

Choosing Beggar Bride Insists Seamstress Friend Make Her A Wedding Dress For Free

This choosing beggar of a bride wanted her seamstress friend to make her a dress for free for her wedding.

Just imagine the entitlement that you must have to expect someone to provide you a trade or a service free of charge when it is the craft that they make their living off of. Time is money and you need to pay. This, of course, is different when a close friend volunteers their time and skills to you. 

This bride sounds like a really crappy friend. She is so willing to pitch a fit to try to get things her way when her friend is already giving her like 75% ($1800) off of the dress. Imagine saying that that isn't a good enough wedding present. 

This bride is sure to be a nightmare when it comes to adjustments and the dress not "being perfect" so it's probably better that her friend cuts ties and walks away.
