Kid Makes Clock That Falls Off The Wall When Looked At


This kid's here to remind the world that there are far better ways for us to use our time when we're bored. I mean, I never would've thought to try and make a clock that falls off the wall when looked at, but here we are. Just think about how much more present we could be if we were coexisting with a bunch of shy clocks.

Devo's Mark Mothersbaugh Explains His Inclusion of "We Smell Sausage" In All His Work


While we are partial to hearing backwards declarations of satanic devotion in our music, Devo's Mark Mothersbaugh's subversion of the trope, and subsequent Easter-egging of his own work is something to behold.

TikToker Finds Bug Floating In Cursed Soup


It's a cursed video like the one that we have here from TikToker @luis_a_951 that might compel you to never consider eating at Olive Garden again, or to strictly stick with the endless rounds of breadsticks. Seriously, that's a big bug right there, and definitely not the "extra protein" that a customer might otherwise order to be added into their soup. 

Karen Customer Rages Over Broken Wi-Fi, Café Manager Serves Karen Reality Check


Unfortunately, there are numerous entitled and insensitive individuals out there that are ready to dish out servings of toxic behavior to hard working employees that are just trying to muddle through their time working in the service industry. It sounds like this Karen was going to be served up a fresh, steaming reality check at one point or another. This manager's petty revenge was definitely brilliant and brutally effective. Keep the revenge drama going with this revenge story about a mechanic who refused to do their job, so a man took revenge.

OSHA-Defying Moments Of Safety Failure


We've all had jobs where we've been asked to do some unsavory garbage like leaning over a roof with no safety harness or burn a bunch of tires on nesting Bald Eagle sanctuaries, but we never felt good about OSHA-unapproved moments of safety failure. Risking life and limb so your boss can save 20 minutes (and pay you less) feels kind of like a crap deal, as evidenced by these safety failures that would make OSHA weep.

16 Times Landlords Were Maniacal, Greedy, Insensitive Tyrants


We've encountered our fair share of greedy and maniacal landlords that seemed to have temporarily misplaced their moral compasses. There have been far too many instances of a landlord trying to pull a fast one on a tenant who they think won't run it back and do their homework before agreeing to shady terms. So, this collection of troubling moments from tenants who encountered some particularly nasty landlords should serve as a reminder that it's ever crucial to know those tenant rights. Check out some more juicy landlord content with this recent post about a landlord who painted over a cockroach, so the cockroach got the meme treatment. Or, you can dive on into this tale of pro revenge where a greedy landlord raised the rent on their tenants so that they wouldn't renew their lease, and then ended up getting what he deserved.

Trashy Moments That Maxed Out The Garbage-ometer


It takes all kinds of people to make up a society. And while most of us don't see the use in partaking in trashtacular behavior like writing our names on national monuments, stealing ground beef and bragging about it, and leaving lying reviews after getting kicked out of local eateries, there are also those of us who do. Trashtacular moments like these are why we can't have nice things.

The Weirdest Compliments People Recieved


On one hand, it's flattering to be told that you have perfectly symmetrical nostrils. On the other hand it's weird to be told by an old lady at a bus stop that she wishes she could wear your hair as a hat. Pluses and minuses. A lot of strange things happen that we never forget, like these weirdest things people saw at other people's houses.

Wife Brings Cookies For Bus Driver, Husband Says It's Embarrassing


Of all the things that there are to complain about in this mad word, for someone to take the time to pitch a temper tantrum about their wife bringing cookies to a hard working, and potentially under-appreciated bus driver is some next level nonsense, man. Like, get a hold of this guy. Naturally, the moral judges in Reddit's AITA community were pretty unforgiving when it came to their assessment of his behavior. 

Tumblr Thread: Human Babies Are "Independent" Compared To Other Mammals


Going along with the whole "humans are space orcs" or "humans are space Australians where earth is the place where bears could fight aliens," or this exploration of human nature via knife Roomba, we get this thing: a discussion on how human babies differ from other animals in terms of relative independence. Cool.

Cheap Client Messes With The Wrong Freelancer


We come across far too many instances of shady individuals trying to pull fast ones on the creative professionals of this world that are just trying to get the payments that they're owed. Well, to say that things didn't work out for this dude after he tried to not make good on a payment would be an understatement. It sounds like the ripple effect was such that it went on to cost him a lot of future business. Check out a similar recent pro revenge story that we ran where a man tried to stiff an IT employee, and ended up being served a mechanics lien.

Shamed Dogs And Their Unforgivable Crimes


Dogs don't exactly have a strict moral code when it comes to eating random stuff, sneezing in faces and humping lamps, so people have to decide peculiar ways in which the hammer comes down. Hence public dog shaming. While they don't exactly understand that strangers on the internet know of their crimes, the looks on their faces sure indicate that maybe they shouldn't have done the thing. For some fun, here's a mastiff competing in an agility course and a retired dad who makes bios for the dogs he walks.

Tumblr Gems and Funny Tweets To Obtain Optimal Entertainment


Open your brain and load up on the kind of funny observations, flights of fancy, and abject truisms that can only be provided by people on the internet who just had a breakdown over having to order pizza by phone. For more of these life-saming loop-de-loops of humorous intent, here are some tumblr gems and tweets to fight the clawing boredom as well as some more tumblr gems and tweets to quench the forever thirst.

People's Wedding Objection Stories


It seems like we regularly come across wildly unnecessary and dramatic scenarios that break out at otherwise peaceful weddings. There's just something about bringing together certain family members that almost always seems to manifest in some kind of drama or another. You just hope that it's not an unfortunate sequence of events involving a bridezilla acting out in all kinds of toxic ways. Instead, maybe something like a couple folks getting over served at the proverbial open bar at a wedding. Or, maybe the DJ throws on an unforgettably terrible song that nobody in their right minds would've wanted to hear. To keep the wedding drama going, check out this post about a woman who refused to cut her hair after her dad demanded that she get the haircut for his wedding.

Free Solo Climber Politely Passes Dude


Alright, so this is just a bit panic-inducing. Many of us would be very preoccupied with proactively working on not falling off the face of the earth. If your palms started sweating while you watched this, just know that you're not alone.
