Terrifying Signs That Had Good Reasons To Be Scary


They say what you don't know can't hurt you, but that line of logic doesn't work when it comes to exposed wires, sinkholes, hidden explosive ordinance, and bears. Also poison ivy, quicksand, riptides, monkeys and poison gas. Oh yeah, plus geese, shooting ranges and nuclear runoff. But that's close to all of it. Maybe. Either way these creepy signs made their message clear.

Sister Invites Herself Over For Christmas, Requests That Host's Dogs Be Left Outside


Christmas is a pretty big deal, ideally it's a time when families are able to come together and celebrate. Holidays are supposed to be family centered and cater to the needs of the family members. Well, sometimes the siblings bicker, the dogs become an issue, and other ridiculousness. OP has made it very clear that her dogs need to feel comfortable in their home. 

Unfortunately, OP's 9 year old nephew is very uneasy around dogs. So sis suggests that they leave the dogs outside while they celebrate Christmas, in freezing temperatures…in the height of winter. Yeah, nah. That's not a legitimate solution, and for some reason OP's sis does not understand why.

Pierre McGuire Being Extremely Awkward With A Sports Announcer


The close talking is one thing, but the insistence on making his one joke work is a masterclass in being awkward as hell. Apparently Pierre has had a history of being a strange man in the world of professional hockey, and those in the know aren't the least bit surprised by the hockey executive being...well... like this.

Dude's Wholesome Hiding Video Is Real Life Where's Waldo


There are moments when we come across something so simple that it feels like it should just be extremely stupid. But after one or two rounds of this, we were surprised how invested we got in trying to find this guy. Dude's a good hider.

Husband Tells Wife She Can't Get Rid Of The Dog, Gets Rid Of Her Instead


All right y'all, gear up for this one. Crazy lady alert. This woman has a track record of becoming obsessed with the idea of having a dog, only to rehome it after the dog's "newness" has worn off. Husband on the other hand is a big time dog lover and very clearly explained to his wife that if they were to get a dog together, that dog would be a part of the family long term and under no circumstances would they be rehoming him. Well, his wife let him down (not the first time).  She quickly grew tired of their new pup, but nope, not today, husband is putting his foot down. The dog is staying, the wife is leaving. Marriage does not have to be forever, not if you're unhappy. Dogs on the other hand, now that's a commitment. Kanye West isn't the only one who hopes this couple signed pre-nup, we sense a nasty divorce up ahead. 

Twitter Thread: Bus Operator Provides In-Depth Analysis Shang-Chi Bus Scene


We're always super wary of any kind of movie plot holes or unrealistic movie logic moments, but we often lack the technical expertise on any given subject to call the right kind of BS. Luckily we have people like @that_mc, an actual bus driver, to give an extremely detailed take on a movie-fight bus scene. Also it's good to finally know what the fire extinguisher is for.

Massive Failures That Didn't Surprise Anyone


It sucks to get your hopes up just to have them dashed later on. That's why it's kind of refreshing when something looks like it's gonna suck, and then lo and behold, it totally does. The feeling of confirmation we can get by universally identify a flop is a nice penance for having to tolerate it.  For some more bad ideas, here are some of thedumbest business ideas people have seen.

Absurd Times Specific People And Things Got Singled Out


Every once in a while you'll drive by a sign that says something like "free pizza for everyone who enters, except Jim." And you wonder, does Jim deserve this kind of treatment? It stands to reason that maybe the last time there was free pizza, Jim was a real jerk about it, and that's why they have the disclaimer. Or maybe they just really don't like Jim. Either way it's still pretty funny. Here are some more humorous instances of people and things getting singled out.

Mother-In-Law Forcefully Grabs Grand-Baby From Its Mother, Then Demands Apology


These in laws need an attitude check. You probably shouldn't be grabbing a baby away from its mother. Especially when said mother is in the process of grieving the profound loss of the loss of a sibling. 

Hubby needs to step up and support his wife and stand up to his parents. There is no reason that she should need to apology here. Even if her actions had been incorrect the circumstances would be understandable. 

History Memes For The Enlightened Amateur Historians


Having a nuanced understanding of history is a great way to fully understand what's on the news, but sadly it has almost nothing to do with being fun at parties or making a ton of money. May these history memes for the besmartened offer clarity and enlightenment, and that's it. Sorry, knowing about the Great Emu War just isn't going to get anyone a great job or true love. But at least it's something.

Karen Customer Insists On Being Totally Unreasonable, Pays The Price


If you go out of your way to be a generally insufferable human being to a perfectly kind and helpful individual who is working customer service, then you can pretty much count on something coming back to bite you in the butt. Sometimes, people are able to look past the toxic nonsense, but that takes some truly saintly patience. It sounds like this Omega Karen was on such an unbearable level of rudeness, that it was just bound to blow up in her face. 

Proof That Kids Are Strange, Dumb People


There's no question that kids are stupid and weird. We remember being stupid and weird. We remember having ridiculous beliefs. We remember thinking that the teacher lived at the school and that adults knew what they were talking about. We remember drawing mustaches on ourselves with permanent marker. Kids are just dumb and weird, and time only sort of remedies that.

Tattoo Artist Uses Bathroom Seven Times, Customer Leaves Smaller Tip, Tattoo Artist Complains


Look, we're not sure what was going on with the tattoo artist during this particular visit. Maybe they ate some demonically spicy Pad Thai that left their stomach in complete ruin the next day, and the bathroom was their only sanctuary. Or, maybe they were just trying to jack up how much money they'd make, by dragging out the length of the customer's session through being an aggressive regular at the restroom. Either way, it sounds like the customer thought it was fair enough to leave a smaller tip. Folks in the comments section seemed to be in agreement over the customer's decision. 

Entitled People and Their Excruciating Behavior


The world is a great big place filled with interesting people. But interesting doesn't necessarily mean "good to talk to" or "nice to be around." Every once in a while entitled people with their absurd audacity cross our paths, demanding discounted lawnmowers, better donuts and free rides that are like really out of our way. Every time that happens, we're given a choice to either fear the ceaseless demands of entitled people or answer their call with ridicule. Ridicule is a better bet.

Family Complains About Pizza Sauce, Get Served Humble Pie


If you have a family member go out of their way to prepare a nice homemade meal like pizza for you, it's probably in your best interest to work real hard at not staging a whole meltdown over something like there "being too much sauce." It sounds like the chef in this scenario had hit their breaking point, and thus decided to stage their own saucy petty revenge. Check out more people's finest moments of revenge over here
