Quick Awesome Tumblr Thread On Tree That Owns Itself


This is pretty dang neat. Tree is out there chilling on the land that it owns, and one day, passing it on down to the next tree.

Text - giraffepoliceforce I love this story because this guy in the early 1800's had so many great childhood memories of this tree and wanted to make sure it was protected no matter what. So he deeded the ownership of the tree to itself and everyone just went with it. Then in 1942 this intense windstorm came and knocked the tree over. And people were bummed. But someone had saved an acorn from the original tree, so they planted that and now Son of the Tree That Owns Itself is over 50 feet tall.

Guy's Friends Build Real-Life RPG, Throw Surprise Stag Party


What an awesome group of friends. This guy's bachelor/stag party was cancelled due to current times, so his friends banded together and built him a real life RPG, to fill the place of the original stag party plan. Suffice to say, the results are heartwarming and dang cool.

That Time Bill Gates Did an Austin Powers Parody


The explanation for this is that that Bill Gates and Steve Ballmer used to make short spoof videos for the yearly Microsoft company party. Austin Powers was a pretty big deal there for a second, so now we have things like this just kinda floating around.

Girl's Friends Think They're Famous, She Tells Them No


So, one friend posts a picture of her other friends online, and they proceed to ask her to take it down due to their "fame", and not wanting to feed the rumor mill. Regardless of whether or not the "fame" is a complete work of the imagination, this girl could at least consider her friends' wishes. Just remote the absurdity of why, and maybe do it anyways. But alas, more drama was created, and now we have this mess. It could be the plot of a "Friends" episode.

1.

Text - AITA for pointing out to my friends that they are not famous? Everyone Sucks My friends are dating, they're also actors who have had small roles on a few tv shows (I'm talking two lines or less). I say this not to be a hater, I truly am rooting for them, but to give you a scope of their reach. Neither of them have a following in real life or on social media (they've got under 1500 followers combined). Anyway last week I posted a group picture on Instagram of people celebrating a friends b

2.

Text - Anyway yesterday in a group chat between the three of us they asked me to take the photo down because they don't want "the public" to know they are dating. I would consider it if they looked bad/too sloppy drunk/etc. but they don't. Also everyone has their arms around each other, not just them. Anyway I asked what they meant, and they said they didn't want to end up in gossip rags... I pointed out that they are not famous and that they don't even have functioning IMDB pages. They were liv

Text - Erin1976 • 246d • Colo-rectal Surgeon [33] ESH. They have inflated egos. However, you should take down a photo when asked to take it down, regardless of the reason.

4.

Text - ILoveCheez-Its • 246d • Partassipant [3] ESH Since they asked you to take a picture of them off social media, you should have done that. That being said, they're acting pretty ridiculous about their "fame".

5.

Text - FjordKoi • 246d • Partassipant [1] NTA for pointing out your friends aren't famous, which is what you asked to be judged for. However, their reasoning for not wanting their picture up (silly as it may be) is irrelevant. They don't want it up, so you remove it. Its called being polite.

6.

Text - SkreemusTD • 246d ESH. It sounds like they're delusional and self important. But the question is, are you an asshole here, and unfortunately I have to say that you just barely are. I say this cause 1. If they do ever become famous then it could matter in the future, and 2. No matter how silly the reason, you should always take images of people down if they request. Still, it totally makes sense where you're coming from, and I wouldn't actually say you're "an asshole", just that you should

Text - lumbersnac • 246d NTA- This sounds like the plot of an episode of Friends

8.

Text - Wenge03 · 246d they don't even have functioning IMDB pages. what sort of amatuers are they? Even my cousin has one and she's only done some reality TV shit that got broadcast during the graveyard shift, the back of her head in one restaurant scene in a local comedy not broadcast outside our area and her 'big break' ended up on the cutting room floor and not even in the deleted scenes Blu-Ray.

9.

Text - crittab • 246d • Certified Proctologist [28] YTA. When someone asks you to take down their photo, you take it down, regardless if their reasoning.

10.

Text - Noltonn • 246d • Craptain [181] I was on the fence until the gossip rags comment. NTA. They are being delusional and shitty to you. There's an argument to be made for them not to want to be dating publicly (you get better work in that industry if you're single, shitty as that may be) but it doesn't even seem like the pictures is that kind of intimate. Now, you should probably delete the picture just to avoid the conflict, but that's up to you.

11.

Text - SuperJesus9000 • 245d NTA, I'm not completely on board with the ESH 'nobody has to have an unfavourable picture of them online' thing. That said, if they were truly famous people doing something in public, there's no way they could get that taken down. It's their status as nobodies that would make this any kind of transgression on OP's part (IMO). Comedy option is photoshopping your face onto their bodies and reuploading the pic. Or tell them you already offered the pic to TMZ.

12.

Text - bunnymelly • 246d • Certified Proctologist [28] NTA. Some people need a reality checks Just put a poop emoji on their heads and call it good. They're acting like little craps about it, and now people won't see that it's them.

13.

Text - eliz3_duboi3 • 246d NTA. But if they make such a fuss of it, Photoshop famous actors onto their faces and post it again. You can poke fun at them in the caption

14.

Text - LexieM3 • 246d • Asshole Enthusiast [6] ESH. You all kinda suck. They're taking themselves way too seriously, and you're riude for telling them they aren't famous. It's just a picture.

15.

Text - justnotcoo1 • 245d I am in the same category of fame as your friends. Been hanging out as a D lister for about a decade. It might be these two share an agent and don't want to start a rumor mill in that circle. Maybe someone somewhere told them they needed to look and act single to get certain roles and project a certain image. Gawd only knows what's going on in their brains. The entertainers brain is neurotic sometimes. If your a good friend you should just pat them on the head gently, i

16.

Text - GoldenMonger • 245d NTA. That's just cringey on their part.

17.

Text - celtic16 • 246d NTA. They need a dose of reality. They're not famous and probably never will be.

18.

Text - sircat31415 • 245d • Partassipant [1] NTA. It's not a fucking picture of them, it's a picture of your friend group. They're just entitled enough to think people care when literally no one is going to dig this up and gossip.

19.

Text - schmavid • 246d • Colo-rectal Surgeon [41] YTA. The reason they don't want their picture online is actually irrelevant. If they don't want their images posted online, FOR ANY REASON, you should respect that.

20.

Text - Xanza • 245d NTA. Everyone needs a friend like you to keep them grounded. I'm sure they're pissed, but what you did is important for them as individuals.

21.

Text - LordChiruChiru • 245d I'm personally gonna say NTA. Your friends are clearly delusional and honestly deserved to get called out. A few bit parts isnt enough to act like you're the second coming of Jesus. In regards the the picture. They're pretty idiotic on the reasoning and personally I believe they should suck it up. Honestly cut these people from your life, they're setting up to be off the charts toxic.

22.

Text - Venom446 • 245d NTA - they need to get off their high horses, and even if theres gossip between them why would it be worthy of a mention.

23.

Text - smellslikefeetinhere • 245d • Asshole Enthusiast [8] NTA. If they have a Facebook or any other online presence with their pictures on it, they don't get to pick and choose where their images end up on the internet.

24.

Text - tellurgrammaisaidhi • 245d NTA but probably nice to untag them, not up to them to take the photo down completely though.

25.

Text - Sir_thinksalot • 245d NTA, People need to get a grip. Do people always get permission to post photos from everyone in them before they do? no. Its your picture not theirs.

26.

Text - carojine • 245d NTA you're being a true friend by keeping them humble and down to earth, they will most likely regret their behavior one day

27.

Text - hungryasabear • 245d NTA for telling them that. Also NTA for sharing a picture of you and your friends in a completely innocent way. If there was an established level of privacy regarding photos of them beforehand, I'd say they're right to want it taken down. But without that, it's just a picture of (apparently now former) friends having fun together.

28.

Text - postcardmap45 • 245d NTA for trying to bring some reality into your friends lives. Their reasoning for wanting the photo down is ridiculous because as you said, there's nothing "incriminating" in the photo. It would be understandable if the photo was just of the two of them. It's a group photo. We've all had pics taken of us where we look off or ugly especially in candid group settings. But going around asking group photos to be taken down is selfish and egotistical. If they wanted to be

29.

Text - BobcatDad • 245d NTA - tell your friends if they want an IMDB they can buy a membership and do it themselves.

30.

Text - Luriker • 245d NTA. They posed in this group photo and have decided that decided they're self-important enough that it should dictate whether that photo should exist after the fact. The reason does play into this.
