Tumblr Post: Random Knowledge Can Be Super Clutch


We love fun little Tumblr posts like the one we have here that shine a light on how the random bits of knowledge we pick up as we move through this life, can end up serving us in all kinds of ways further on down the road. So, if anything it's stories like these that can encourage us to embrace all those absurd rabbit holes filled with surprising insights that you can come across as you stumble through the vast expanse of the wild world of Tumblr. Who knows how that knowledge could end up serving you further on down the road. 

Heroic Kayakers Rescue Moose Calf From River In Canada


Every now and again we come across a video that doesn't scream "fail", but instead manages to temporarily restore our faith in humanity. Take this scenario for instance. A couple kayakers decided to act and do the admirable, heroic thing instead of freezing under the weight of panic. 

Danish Helmet PSA Is Actually Pretty Good


The decades-long debate over helmet-wearing can be boiled down to two camps. One side says that helmets are a convenient and statistically proven way to prevent untimely death and brain damage while the other side astutely points out that helmets are lame. While the merits of those diverse viewpoints hold up differently to scrutiny, this Danish PSA for helmet wearing is pretty funny.

TikToker's "Sink Recipes" Are A Cursed Mess


The world's unfortunately grown well acquainted with TikTokers unleashing all kinds of nasty trends. In the case of the "sink recipe" videos from TikToker @succhefful we sorely hope that nobody tries out the recipes at home. You'd think/hope that most people would possess the common sense necessary to pick up on the fact that sink recipe videos aren't safe to actually put into practice, but unfortunately, some jokes just fly right over people's heads. If you're looking for some more gross food content after checking out these TikTok videos, then take a peek at some meals that people made with hatred, not love

Egotistical Hotshot Unknowingly Talks Smack To Boss, Gets Humbled Quickly


Man oh man, this guy was his own worst enemy from the very start. Some of the world's more egotistical individuals end up going on to engineer their own failures. It seems like this guy was in the prime position to learn his lesson. Can't imagine what the look on his face must've been. 

Funny and Delectable Tumblr Gems To Quench The Forever Thirst


At the end of the day, what do we really thrive on? Well sure, food and shelter. But after that, what is at the top of our hierarchy of needs? Self actualization? Getting to sit in the good chair? Filthy T-shirts? Maybe what we truly crave is humorous observations in the form of hilarious and totally random tumblr gems. What's nicer than crude deconstructions of societal norms and self indulgent pop culture references? Who knows, we don't have time because we're too busy looking at tumblr gems uncovered from the deep.

Mean Step Dad Tricks Kid Out Of Laptop, Kid Takes His Car


Man, this step dad sounds like a real nasty piece of work. What kind of guy tricks his kid out of a perfectly fine laptop? Fortunately, the kid kept his wits about him, and managed to enact a true pro revenge in response. Just picturing the way that that step dad's jaw must've hit the ground when he saw the kid take that "broken" car for a joy ride around the block, is enough to make the heart swell in deep appreciation. It's also a beautiful car! 

Weird and Terrifying Images To Feel Uncomfortable About


They say that fear is the oldest feeling there is. They probably didn't have decaying puppets or underwater clowns in the dawn of man, but holy hell do they do the job. On second thought, maybe primordial clowns came from the sea just like us? Long, wet clowns with gills that honked. Maybe it's best not to think about it. From the world's cursed images to the necessary but ominous signs we use to warn each other of real danger, there's some spooky crap out there, man.

Choosing Beggar Wants iPad For $40 And Free Delivery


Man, these kind of interactions between the choosing beggars of the world and the sane individuals just trying to make a buck without dealing with full on delusional fools really sap our faith in humanity. This choosing beggar really needs to reassess their approach to life. 

Check out another case of a particularly gnarly choosing beggar who expected to pay for a painting with a prayer.

An Imaginative Conversation On Getting Out Of Work


It doesn't even matter that this is pretty much guaranteed to be fake. The conversation itself is ridiculous and entertaining. Maybe, the best course of action is to just play dumb if you really, really need to get out of work. That goes without saying that it'd certainly be a risky move, and not particularly an advisable, definitely unethical life hack. Check out some more highly unadvisable life pro tips over here

Entitled Boyfriend Starts Eating Birthday Cake Before Party Even Happens


It doesn't really matter what your personal beliefs about birthdays are, you don't exactly get to dictate other people's values after taking their stuff. Also, it's pretty safe to assume that eating a piece out of a kid's birthday cake before the candles go on isn't going to be taken as a minor inconvenience. Cake drama is real, like this entitled coworker who demanded a cake and issued threats, or this one pound cake Karen who was furious after getting what she wanted.

Meals People Made With Hatred, Not Love


It's a totally ubiquitous thing to say. "Why is this lasagna so good? Well of course, it's made with love." Well sometimes food is not made with love. Sometimes cursed food abominations make it obvious that there was something else in there. It stands to reason that if love can exist as an ingredient, hatred must exist as well. Sometimes it's a combination of apathy and incompetence in the case of horrible things people ate out of politeness, but other times, all it takes is a tablespoon of hatred.

Facepalm Moments Of Profound Dumbitude


It's really easy to think that people are smart and responsible in general. But the more people you meet, the more you realize that we're barely holding it together. Life is just brimming with facepalms deep fried in stupidity. It's an absolute miracle that most of us can manage to hold down a job, feed ourselves, and not just sit around all day hitting ourselves with hammers. So go on and expose yourself to the gamma rays of facepalming, mystifying dumbness.

Power-Tripping Manager Tells Employee To Not Do Their Job, Backfires Terribly


It's a wonder that some people are put into the positions of power that they are in the first place. Fortunately, the pattern seems to be consistent in that they don't last long in their roles of authority. At one point or another the incompetence ends up creating such chaos and destruction that the businesses have to let them go. It sounds like this particular manager was just biding their time until they ended up failing so hard that the only acceptable outcome would be their righteous termination. For some more juicy malicious compliance drama check out the story about this woman who claimed she was on a salt-free diet, and then got exposed

Woman Uninvites Friend From Engagement Party Over Engagement Ring Comment


Weddings undoubtedly have a striking ability to inspire all kinds of otherwise avoidable drama between people. It could be family members that never should've been brought together to be in the same room again. Or, perhaps you have a friendship that goes on to endure a meltdown of sorts over one person's inability to exercise just a bit of a filter. For some more wedding drama check out this quick AITA post about a vegan who wanted a wedding guest's vegan meal, got rejected, and then proceeded to pitch a ridiculous fit

Entitled Coworker Demands Free Cake, Gets Denied, Issues Threats


It's hard to fully digest the fact that these kinds of people actually exist. You've got to wonder where all the dizzying entitlement really took root. Was it nurtured from a young age, or did it present its ugly face sometime later in life? In the case of this employee, it seems like it's a bit of a lose-lose situation based off their impossibly testy and disrespectful attitude. And then the fact that they have the audacity to issue threats at the end there. Pretty unreal. Check out more entitled people with their fantastical demands over here

Worst Business Decisions People Have Ever Seen


Unfortunately a reality of being human is that there will come various times when your judgment is seemingly chucked right out the window. Hopefully, when this happens you don't find yourself in a position of power where you're being held responsible for the very health of a business. Or, maybe if you've already suffered a self-created business blunder of your own, then these fails will make you feel a bit better about whatever cringe from the past keeps you up at night. 

Husband Grunts While Lifting Weights, Wife Asks Him To Stop


There's no denying the fact that the last year and a half put many folks in situations where they were forced to spend a uniquely greater amount of time with their partners and roommates. For some, that was not a welcomed scenario. Just about anyone can drive you insane if you're forced to spend too much time with them. In this particular scenario we have some fresh drama between a married couple because the husband continues to grunt while lifting weights. 

Clever Pilot Trolls Other Aircraft By Requesting Speed Check


This story's been around for a while, but it's always fun to revisit. Can't imagine what must've been going through the heads of the pilots that were around for this masterful act of trolling.
