They say ignorance is bliss, and that's mostly true until reality smashes into your face faster than you can say "I'd rather not." We live in a world of secrets, and the unsettling irony is that the most unassuming, trustworthy people are also the ones who are just the best at keeping them. You hope those secrets are wholesome, but lets be honest that's usually not the case. For things you might rather not want to see, here are some strange and cursed images of internet weirdness.
This customer decided to channel their inner aggression and outrage at the bar, after she was rejected from having more drinks. Apparently, she was showing signs of drunkenness, and the bar decided it was time for them to stop serving her. By the sound of it, this news was unwelcome and simply not accepted.
So, the customer proceeded to make a proper stink about it. She went so far as to leave a dishonest review. Fortunately, the bar owner was ready to address the dishonest review with the footage-backed facts that they had on hand.
It's far too easy to take for granted just how strangely spelled some of the words in the English language are. The weird spellings themselves can end up making for quite the hassle for when it comes time to actually say the words out loud. Seriously though, have we just accepted that desert and dessert are actually spelled wrong?
You can't knock people for their hustle, even when that hustle is trying to re-brand a useless 70-year-old couch as "vintage." Okay, maybe you can knock them a little bit. People will create and find some strange and dumb junk and immediately think that someone might pay top dollar for it. At least some folks have a sense of humor about it.
It's just plain old uncool to tamper with someone's food in a way that has you putting in an ingredient that they have no idea, nor intention of eating in the first place. In this case, it's cottage cheese. It sounds like the cousin in this scenario was determined to prove some kind of unnecessary point, but ultimately they just end up looking like the inconsiderate chef.
Anyone who has a twin knows that having a family member who looks exactly like you can result in some hilarious, if not panic-inducing situations. It sounds like the dude on the other end of this interaction had no idea just how close he was to taking some pepper spray to the face. For some more humorous, twin-inspired content check out this AskReddit thread about the best switcharoos that twins were able to pull off.
Being actually right is a hard and thankless job. There are not enough hours in the day to burden ourselves with factual correctness, so sometimes we have to settle for technical and literally accurate options to get us through that day. Technically accurate moments let us enjoy the fruits of being not wrong, but with the time saving nature of not having to be totally right.
These guys brought the unexpected and clearly unwanted journey to a bathroom in a faraway land, on themselves. We're not sure what compels people to talk down to other people that are just trying to get through their jobs. Kudos to the sweeper for having the wherewithal to return the favor to a couple insensitive dudes that needed to use the bathroom. For another glorious tale of malicious compliance check out this story about a boss who denied their employee's request for a PC upgrade, and then the malicious compliance that ensued.

Anyone who goes out of their way to make their coworkers' lives miserable, or just stomps around with an insufferable entitled attitude about them, is just asking for a someone else to take a pro revenge on them. In this case, the pro revenge that is taken on a terribly toxic Karen coworker is nothing short of biblical. The amount of patience exercised in the face of Karen's infuriating antics is nothing short of saintly. For some more Karen drama check out the time that Karen spilled water all over her computer, and then expected a sys admin to be able to fix the mess.
In case you ever find yourself suffering through a date that you can't find a good reason to be a part of anymore, then these devilishly inventive ways to ruin a date in under five seconds might come in handy. Sometimes, you just need to hit the eject button on a date as soon as possible for your own good. Are there more graceful ways to go about the process than what we have here? Of course, but to each their own.
There's nothing quite like that sweet "I told you so feeling" you get when a customer gets exactly what they wanted and learns that they screwed up. It feels good to drink in the visceral feeling of an outsmarted horrible customer. Customers are often wrong, but too few of us don't give a rip, so this kind of interaction is as rare as it is sweet.
Karen should've just told the truth from the start, and also not put so much effort into making her coworker's life on the job, miserable. But no, Karen insisted on maintaining a personal vendetta against her coworker, and also lying about a back injury. Well karma came around to collect in the form of perfect timing. The very coworker she dragged down ended up spotting her at the pool hall that an injured person most certainly wouldn't be frequenting.
Scams are still abundant in this day and age, and one really popular system designed to separate well-meaning people and their money are massive pyramid scheme-like multi-level marketing operations. What makes them hard to deal with is that they're not the traditional kind of scammer that you can just mess with. They suck people in with promises of being your own boss and giving bonuses for recruiting more people, all while siphoning money out of their own "employees" pockets. One big issue with this is that the convinced don't want to be unconvinced, so when given the facts about predatory companies, the duped people involved just double down. It also provides a lot of strange, interesting and frustrating interactions like these, where a near stranger at this person's gym wanted to tell them about a "new and exciting opportunity."
Nothing quite uplifts the downtrodden spirits like being able to witness or hear about your archenemy enduring their ultimate demise. It's pretty much music to the ears. Especially if you were chugging along through life with the exhausting weight of a profound grudge being held against them. Maybe these people's stories will strike a chord for some folks out there.
