Technology Mishap Leads Guy to Accidentally Show His Family An Intimate Video of Him With His Partner


This story and the stories that commenters shared afterwords have to be the most cringe-inducing things we have ever read. It's probably one of the things that, as an adult, you live in constant fear of happening to you. With all the bloody 'features' on phones and other technology products that show you slide shows of your 'highlights' from your photo library it's only a matter of time until something unfortunate pops up. I remember hearing a similar story involving one of those digital picture frames that were popular in the 2010's (are those still a thing?).



25 Puns That Range From Tremendously Witty to Horrendously Not As Good


Are puns even really humor? They're jokes in the same way that marshmallows are food.

So sit back and enjoy the lowest form of humor there is. Here are some puns that are about as funny as puns get.

Manager Won't Give Employee Raise, Gets Called Out


The thing about not paying your hard working and highly efficient employees the kind of money that they're deserved is that it has a tendency to backfire. In this case, the employee on hand wasn't too pleased at all about not being given the kind of raise that they felt they deserved. So, it sounds like that resulted in them starting to take a whole lot more PTO. It wouldn't be beyond reason to suggest that there's a strong possibility that they're out there hunting for a new gig. Hopefully, this manager got the kind of wakeup call that they clearly needed.

"Not My Job" Moments Of Occupational Inadequacy

Some of us are blatantly mocking the sacred rule of "don't get noticed" by leaving things worse, dumb, stupid, and ultimately pretty funny. So here's to our collective professional apathy.

Girl Sends ‘Fax Bomb’ to Credit Card Company When They Refuse to Process Her Name Change


There's nothing worse than that overbearing immense inertia that you experience when you're dealing with a corporate bureaucratic Goliath. At the best of times it can feel like you're in a Sisyphus simulation; Pushing a boulder up the hill only to have it roll back again down onto you. One day you call up and give them all the information they need, and receive amazing help from the gal on the other end of the line. Suddenly it has been three weeks and you have heard nothing back... So you phone up only to be told that nothing has been recorded and you need to give them all the information again.

You might be better off instead to choose the path that this gal has gone. A nuclear blast to their fax machine. This definitely isn't the first malicious compliance fax bomb we have seen and nor will it be the last. Maybe they have become inspired by one another?

Gotta love it when someone is so far up their own ass that they've gone delusional on the fumes and think they can charge people for the privilege of working for them. That's not how it works.
