Skolkovo Dynamics. It's like Boston dynamics but with less budget and direction, but a lot more noise. We'll always have a soft spot for useless, noisy and horrible machines. Maybe it's because they remind us so much of ourselves. Either way, these things are a tour de force of crap. Is that a stick?

At the core of this ridiculously cringeworthy tantrum from the DoorDash driver is the undeniable fact that she could've simply refused to drive that distance. You don't have to take every order that comes your way. But no, instead she makes the drive, and then pitches a full on fit about the tip not being up to her standards.

It's one of those record scratch "how did I get here" moments that no one wants to find themselves in. This poor dude found himself hanging from a ski lift, to be caught in the waiting net of ski patrol, with plenty of inconvenienced strangers waiting for him to fall. At least it wasn't that high up.

At first it seemed like the typical tale of a dude asking for too good of a deal, getting rejected and slipping away into the night. Then the prospective buyer tried contacting the PS4 seller again in an attempt to sell his own wares, bootleg tracksuits and Uggs. It turned into a convenient opportunity to get the last word in. The lowballers of the world set themselves up for failure often, like this lowballer who didn't understand lowballing or this entitled lowballer who got sent to the wrong address.

We live in a culture that at least claims to be sort of merit-based, fair, or at least fair-er than others. That said, we all have to deal with glaring double standards when it comes to work and relationships. Life is unfair, but a lot of this unfairness sure seems like a bunch of BS. Sometimes the unfairness we find ourselves in dips into the absurd, which produces memorable "screw this, I'm out" moments.

Man, you've really got to hand it to the tech support employees of this wild world. They're really out there on the frontlines, weathering all kinds of profound stupidity. In this case, we have a tech support employee dealing with an irritated customer who is convinced that their phone's dead because they changed their password, and then the phone wouldn't charge. I mean, really, where do you even start with something like that?

As a field of study, history is kind of weird. Whereas chemistry or math or biology all have pretty rigid definitions, many things can fall under the categorization of "history." History could easily be called "everything else that has happened." It's good to know some history, not just to get a sense of context, but also so you can get sweet history memes that are as good as books probably.
