The Most Jaw-Dropping Tinder Fails This Week (October 25, 2022)

Here's to another wild week on Tinder! You have to hand it to these people, I suppose. They never fail to be interesting. In a cesspool of desperation, you have to be special to catch someone's attention. Even if you took a big swing and a miss, at least you swung the bat. These audacious individuals will be joining our unofficial Tinder Hall of Fame…if not for their skills, at the very least for their audacity. Keep scrolling below to see how they did it!

'I'm sorry but ten kids is a big cost on our wedding budget': Drama ensues when bride invites only some of her religious sister's kids

Does it make you a bridezilla to not invite all 10 of your sister's children?

 

This thread was posted to Reddit's r/AmITheA**hole subreddit by u/Bright_Physics_8375, who shared her family drama with the ruthless judges of the AITA community. Essentially, she was planning her wedding on a tight budget and asked her religious sister if she could invite her three oldest kids rather than all ten of them (the youngest of which is only a year old). Of course, this backfired and caused a whole lot of unnecessary drama in which the sister claimed that the Redditor was being a bridezilla and did not approve of her religious beliefs and lifestyle.

 

Our hot take here is that the sister's argument is a big stretch. It's the bride and groom's right to decide if they don't want a wedding full of children. Maybe this could have been communicated better, but you cannot expect to have that many offspring and assume they can go wherever you go. Keep scrolling below for the full story!

Uncle Accidentally Unalives Nephew After Their Pets Fight, Wonders if He's Wrong

This uncle engaged in a bit of a disagreement with his nephew at their family friend's place, which resulted in the "accidental" un-aliving of the nephew when the pair lost control of their pets. Now he's wondering how to handle the situation and trying to figure out if he is the a-hole for how things played out.

Now it's important to take a look at the ethical and moral considerations at work here. For instance, why chase after your nephew with your retired ex-military behemoth of a pet if you weren't intending to do him any harm? It's one thing to claim a lack of intent, but actions speak louder than words, and it really seems like he f**ed around and found out here. Huge negative points here, too, for both kinslaying and attacking an envoy, both big no-nos in the Westerosi moral code. 

What's your take on the situation? Keep reading for screenshots of the thread below.

'I'd booked the seat and wasn't going to move': First class train passenger refuses to move for elderly woman

This woman reserved an individual first-class seat on a UK train that turned out to be priority seating for the elderly or disabled. Drama ensued when a 60-year-old woman without a specific seat reservation marched onto the first-class car demanding to have that priority seat.

 

This thread was posted to Reddit's r/AmITheA**hole subreddit by u/Optimal_Promotion879, who acknowledged that the train system in the UK is, to put it lightly, complicated. The fact that you can book a ticket but not be guaranteed a specific seat is one flaw, but the fact that they would give the Redditor a priority seat (which she insisted she was not aware of prior to boarding the train) just goes to show that this system is complete chaos. While I too feel bad for the older woman, if the system's rules are clear, she should have known that no seat is guaranteed (and certainly not a first-class one…beggars can't be choosers, lady!). However, at the end of the day, the real A-hole here is the train booking system. In what world is this allowed to happen?!

Guy Tries to Talk His Way Into Unavailable Hotel Room, Won't Take No For an Answer

In contrast to the other interactions we see posted online by customer service persons, this one is pretty innocuous. It does a great job of providing insight into the sheer number of bizarre interactions you have — week in and week out — when you work in a public-facing role. Not all of them are Karens losing their marbles over the slightest inconvenience — but they will still leave you scratching your head and wondering what in gods name you have just witnessed.

I used to sell bikes, and some of my favorite interactions would be when guys would flat-out lie about their height to the point of delusion. This would happen far more often than you might expect, and some of these guys would have literally convinced themselves that they were taller than they actually were. I know my height down to tenths of an inch, so don't claim to be taller than me when I can see the top of your head. Of course, we'd chuck these guys onto the size of bike that they "claimed" they were, and it would soon become wildly apparent to everyone involved in the process that this wasn't going to be a good fit. At this point, I would come up with some far-fetched reason as to why this size wasn't working "for their body type," and we'd get them onto the correct size.

Again, this whole interaction happened far more often than it had any right to, and there's an endless list of crap like this that you just learn to deal with. Everyone has their quirks and idiosyncrasies, and sometimes they manifest themselves in really strange ways.

'I'm ready to fire pretty much all of you': Abusive restaurant owner sends wild, unhinged messages to staff

This restaurant owner is the definition of evil. While there are plenty of horrible bosses in this world, it's hard to beat this one, who is a literal parody of herself at this point. 

 

This thread was posted to Reddit's r/restaurant subreddit by u/Ale-Pac-Sha, who shared a series of group text messages from the restaurant owner to her staff. Let's just say that with each message, it gets increasingly unhinged. One person pointed out in the comments section that she openly admitted to planning to commit wage theft on top of numerous other problems from crazy revelations to threats to abusive and offensive rhetoric. Obviously, no employee deserves to be treated this way, except for maybe the owner herself. Here's hoping her staff leaves her high and dry, but not before getting some sweet revenge. We've seen plenty of instances where employees were able to stand up for themselves. Like this post about an employee who found a loophole in his company's sick day policy.

'I ruined his life': Boss suspends employee for injuring themselves, employee ends their business

Manifesting traits and performing actions that squarely fall within a "Chaotic Evil" alignment is not a great business strategy. You're going to open yourself up to all kinds of legal and moral pitfalls that could result in your business being "canceled" or forced to close by authorities. Surprisingly, all too many owners think they're the "big bad" of a Dnd campaign and have become accustomed to feeling immune to consequences within their spheres of influence. Well, the party comes for you eventually, and if you F around with your workers for long enough, you're going to find out.

After being suspended for "negligence" for sustaining an on-the-job injury, this worker, Reddit user u/Top_Professional_69, had tolerated enough. They reported their boss to every relevant authority they could possibly think of and brought the fact that they had been illegally manufacturing products into the light. Of course, this supervillain of a boss had also forgotten the most important rule of breaking rules — don't break multiple rules at once, or you run the risk of getting caught for the more serious offense because of the more mundane.

Funniest Memes About Dating App Fails That Have Us Thinking We’re Better off Alone

Swipe left, swipe left, swipe… nope, still left. Dating apps are 'filled with opportunities' - yeah right. Filled with opportunities to get kidnapped, maybe. What can we do, though? It's so hard to meet someone in person, it's like dating apps are basically the only option. Sure, there are those few lucky ones but for the rest of us folk, we got to hit the swipes. And people are… well, interesting, intriguing, and also - completely insane. There are those who have a God complex, those who think sending unsolicited pics of their genitals is a winning strategy, and those who have a seriously dangerous amount of ego. And that's just the texting part - occasionally we get to meet up with some of these peeps, and then they have the opportunity to show us their crazy in person. What can we say, it's a dangerous world out there. For those who have had recent run-ins with the crazies in question, these memes are for you.
