High End Nail Artist Goes Viral for Her Story About Taking a Mystery Client and It Turning Out to Be Vladimir Putin


Hands down, one of the most bonkers stories ever to be shared on TikTok. 

Boss Has Tantrum And Demands Room Cleared, Gets His Wish


As an employee, it's your job to be the arms of your boss. And when that boss is a crazy person who can't handle their emotions and ends up flailing his arms around in impotent rage, you are the one doing the flailing. So much for being an appendage.

It just so happens this boss thought he could get exactly what he wanted by screaming a lot, and upon being asked for clarification, he provided it. His employees were more than willing to erase this other owner's existence from the office, so he got what he wanted. But, much like a genie in a joke, this guy got a lot more than he bargained for. So maybe it's kind of a bad idea to make huge demands while you're absolutely freaking out. In one fell swoop this guy was shown exactly how much faith his employees have in his ability to lead. But hey, he's the big smart owner so he'll think of something.

For another tale of questionable leadership, here's a woman who was infuriatingly fired for telling a customer the truth.


Coworker Let Go After He Uses Anti-LGBT Slur at Work, Girl Submitted Complaint Pretending to Be Customer to Get Him Fired


In no way am I going to condone the poster's actions here. But, It's pretty hard to feel bad for the guy who got fired. It's just karma taking its course a little more aggressively than usual.

This topic was posted by u/imnotchineseokay to Reddit's r/pettyrevenge subreddit. Which, predictably, hosts a range of stories of people exacting revenge of the petty variety on deserving individuals. As you might expect, the subreddit is chockfull of stories marinated in the justice-bonery stew of 'revenge fantasies' and 'altruistic punishment.' 

Math And Learning Memes For The Brainiacs Among Us


We should feel lucky that we live in a time when knowledge is so freely exchanged. Just a few hundred years ago, if you wanted to know how calculus worked, you had to invent it yourself. But now, if you really want to know how the nuts and bolts of the universe fit together, you can just go online, watch some videos and do a bunch of exercises. That said, if you want to be acknowledged for knowing complex math, it's still likely that you need to pay a bunch of money to attend and accredited institution and have a particular person explain complex math to you before you watch those same videos and do those same exercises.

And also, if you don't have an affinity for math, you will never own a home. Sorry. That's just how it looks like it's shaking out.

Here are some math and science memes full of arithmetical humor.

People Share The Craziest Things Their Exes Have Done


Breaking up can be difficult. It's hard to know if you made the right choice to end things. But sometimes your ex steals your dog, or calls your work and tells your boss that you've been stealing, then offers doctored texts to try and frame you. That makes it a whole lot easier to be confident in ending the relationship. Sure, it's an absolute nightmare in the short-term, to have an ex lie to your landlord in a plot to try and make you homeless, but in the long term it's nice to have total confirmation that the relationship was definitely not going to work out.

So here are some people who got some extremely good indicators that they weren't a good match, for the most part. Some exes are nice. But the interesting ones usually aren't. There are people out there who will use a break-up as an excuse to really stretch out their crazy-legs and offer the world some insight into their real character. And man, some people are a Rube Goldberg machine of messed up.

For some more moments when people threw caution to the wind, here are people's "screw it, I'll deal with it later" moments.
