Whatever you have currently going on in your life that you just wish you could escape from... You can rest easy knowing that at least you're not one of these poor souls.
The utter misfortune of their existence at these precise moments is something that we can be grateful that we're not experiencing.
If you enjoy these be sure to check out these embarrassing mistakes people made during job interviews!
Cheers to that. Pogs in chat.
The nerve of some people. If it were me... My mother-in-law would never be receiving a gift ever again after the initial incident. It's honestly baffling how someone could possibly be so entitled about something that is being given to them as a gift.
There's got to be other reasons why the husband was "unable to be present" at his mother's birthday. If I were him I'd make sure to have a scheduling conflict every year.
That in mind... It's cruel to send your wife in your place to your mother's birthday. Either you both go or no one goes.
This isn't the first we've seen of entitled in laws and one can imagine that it won't be the last.
It's footage like this that goes to show how incredibly dangerous flash floods are. The crazy destructive power of thousands of gallons of water combined with the suddenness of a deeply bad situation can put someone in a life or death situation in seconds.
Ken Turner is a prolific bass singer capable of singing notes so low they're almost inaudible to the human ear. We imagine that every time he tells a story, the building he's in shakes apart. We're simply impressed that the frequency of his voice doesn't pop all of the seams in his clothes. It's a low voice.
Sure, we could do things correctly all the time, but where's the drama in that? We're busy people, and doing things in a way that is only technically right is a far superior option when it comes to looking clever and making people upset. That's the beauty of technically accurate moments that aren't incorrect.
Grief over the loss of a loved one can cause us to do some pretty crazy things and act in ways we normally wouldn't. But, as multiple commenters have pointed out here, it is very concerning that the husband thinks he has some kind of authority over his wife. A partnership is just that. You are equals, no exceptions. If that's not the case it's probably the time to get the heck out of there.
Sounds like a hard situation all around.
I'm imagining a house that is absolutely covered in Christmas lights like the Griswold residence. With so many lights on it that you would be instantly blinded if you look at it.
If it's anything other than that this HOA Karen is an absolute grinch.
There's no way she has any right to tell this guy what to do, especially since he isn't even a part of her HOA. She's just looking for something to get upset over so that she can wave her false authority around.
At least we have her to thank for creating this hilariously ridiculous scenario.
There are a lot of reasons to try something bad. Maybe you're being polite and you don't want to offend your mother-in-law by spitting out her famous "salt pie." Maybe you're open minded but your palate just isn't used to the flavor of uric-acid flavored shark carcasses. Or maybe the person feeding you just doesn't care. Everyone has a story of the worst foods they've ever eaten because man they're hard to forget.
We're all out here doing our best. Okay that's a lie. We're all out here trying to not do our worst. Most of the time, that's sufficient. But there are other times, not so good times, where our only-okay decision-making skills lead us astray. People will drive into planes, wash cheese and bake their glasses into bread. Life is full of chaotic moments of misfortune that we can't exactly avoid. Maybe we could if we tried a little harder, but who's going to do that?
Obvious Plant has made people doubletake for years at their off-the-wall satirical takes on everyday products, posters and toys. The humor itself is surreal enough that it makes us feel smart for feeling like we get it, but it's direct and stupid enough that we actually get it. Who doesn't want to buy a pack of little plastic dead birds?
People are strange. We're mostly reasonable and capable of empathy, but there are some of us who would throw a tantrum at the suggestion that we should treat other people with respect. Entitled peoplewill literally send angry emails to hospitals complaining about the noise of an emergency helicopter in the process of saving someone's life. They'll leave false one star reviews for restaurants because a server only did their job perfectly and didn't blow them a kiss. It's wild out there.
This is the kind of mistake that makes you want to quit your life and move into a cabin in the woods somewhere.
Can you even imagine the shame and embarrassment that you would feel in this situation? This exact scenario, ok maybe not exact, has to be somewhere on my list of top 10 greatest fears.
Predictably, all the gamers in the comments immediately start asking for a link to the guide... To which OP complies. I'm not going to link it here but the cover of the PDF (which is SFWish) is screen shotted below. It's definitely... riveting.
But I mean, hey, it's a 10 year old game... you have to spice it up somehow!
Gaming sure has changed over the last 15-20 years and this gamer's experience is certainly one that we all can share.
There's nothing worse than getting home with a new game (or even downloading one) and then immediately being faced with ANOTHER update and then ANOTHER update when you boot the game up.
There seems to be no end to the downloads to ship out patches and content that feel like they just should have been a part of the finished game. There was even that time that The Sims tried to make money off of virtually dusting your house.
Unfortunately, when a game ships its no longer a finished product. Gone are the days of inserting a cartridge and getting right to it.
Imagine if Mario Kart 64 had had balance patches because 'heavy' characters were too OP. Bowser gang unite.
Years after this post initially surfaced and I can't help but wonder where this couple is now. Did they work out? Are they still together?
I like to imagine that they're on a beach somewhere on the coast of Mexico working on an old boat sipping cocktails.
When I picture them heading south in their own car with the top down, it always makes me laugh.
I hope the Pacific is as blue as it has been in my dreams. I hope.
Regardless of where they are now and where they've gotten. This probably is not the move when you've only been dating for four months.
It's probably not a good idea to mess with a group of people who specialize in precision. Engineers tend to be pretty organized and when you bait them into putting that organization into malicious compliance you're going to regret it.
I bet their managers were rolling their eyes for every second in the minutes before and after work. As a manager how can you have a hope in heck of getting things how you wanted them when the entire team is technically complying to every letter of your demand.
My favorite type of MC is when an entire team of people band together for the greater good. Props to these guys.
