Luckily they're there to sift through the people having a meltdown in traffic and grandmas who think the kids on their lawn are terrorists so cops can respond to actual crimes.

Times people didn't understand satire and overreacted to fake stories.

Whether it's just not understanding what proper sources are, poor reading comprehension, or just not wanting to get the joke, some folks out there have a really hard time understanding what satire is. At first, reading these are kinda funny, then after a while it gets sorta sad to see it all.

Stuff People Learned Embarrassingly Late In Life


Obvious things, facts, and common knowledge that people learned too late in their lives.

Sometimes what we think of as common knowledge isn't actually as common as we thought. Well, also people can be pretty dumb. In fact, there might be one or two of these that make you go "holy crap I'm a moron." If you still think Alaska is an island there's probably no hope for you but, what the hell, live and learn.

Funny Twitter details how cats took over Scotland.

Twitter User @LawrWard, dove down a bit of a hilarious rabbit's hole when he imagined, in detail, what a scenario involving cats taking over Scotland and the U.K. would look like. Suffice to say, people loved the creative silliness, and it went viral. I guess at this point, all we can do is hail our cat overlords.

Reminds us of this hyper-controlling helicopter mom who wanted to track her kid at college.

People Share What Their School's Popular Kid Did To Lose Everyone's Respect


Stories about messed up and stupid things popular kids did to make them lose popularity.

It's very possible to be popular in high school without also being a huge douche, but those two things aren't always mutually exclusive. Sometimes a popular kid does something that they think they can get away with and it backfires like the dickens. Usually it's some horrible lie or evil thing they they tried, and realize too late that people won't always have their back. Besides that, it's after high school when people really change (or don't).
