For anyone who hasn't seen a coconut crab before, they're a bit of a sideways-walking nightmare. They like to walk on land and eat coconuts, which basically means they can find you anywhere and pinch super hard. These golfers met a particularly stubborn coconut crab who seemed really interested in a set of clubs, and they found out just how hard it can pinch.
It's one thing to accidentally let your car roll into a lake. It's a whole other thing to immortalize your own incompetence in front of thousands of people due to a chance encounter with a live camera feed. Also, god damn do trucks sink fast or what?
We are no strangers to world of business casual, we are professional business casual-ers. Oh yeah, we are well versed in the language of workplace acceptability. We keep it (pro)fresh and cool. Though, not everyone has the same definition of what is appropriate for the workplace. A piece of clothing that is offensive to one person can be totally mundane to another person. Like many others, OP has found himself caught in a attire related debacle with his boss, who claims that his 'bulge' is too pronounced. We wonder why the boss lady is wasting time staring at her employee's crotch and telling him that his pants (full coverage, long pants) are 'too revealing.' Good bosses are few and far between, and this one missed the mark.
One common problem people often run into is a freezing kind of fear or complete lack of motivation when it comes to completing everyday tasks. It's easy to be discouraged when looking for a perfect solution, but being able to break those thinking habits can be crucial to doing the things you need to get done in your life. Here's a man's meaningful vulnerable thread about mental health.
Many of us have had nightmares where we find ourselves working back at our older, worse jobs. It's not exactly fun to see those bad jobs clawing back from the past to interrupt our new reality. And as it turns out, this isn't even an uncommon thing to have happen. For some serious quitting catharsis, here's an employee who resigned and had his boss pleading for them to come back while losing fistfuls of money.
Everyone has slightly different rules when it comes to everyday living. But in all of our spheres of understanding, they tend to converge in one great Venn diagram over particular unacceptable behaviors. Things like "yelling at retail workers for circumstances they can't control" and "parking sideways over two disabled spots." It's not all that hard to not be hated, but evidently people still have trouble with it. Anyway, do this stuff if you want to increase the amount of inconvenience, chaos and misery in the lives of people who have to deal with you.
We like Antiques Roadshow as much as we like weird insane crap, and these Antiques Roadshow re-captions make perfect sense to us. Keaton Patti let some true magic fly out of his noggin and did the world a favor by giving us these alternate antiques. Also we regret to learn that it looks like we've used our space machine wrong.
If you are a responsible adult, like us, you probably have a lot on your plate. Between all the different and important aspects of life, it can be hard to find time for what really matters. And what really matters? Well, who has been there for you every time you went through a rough patch as a kid? Who did you stay up all night with on countless occasions throughout high school and college? That's right, it's just you and your gaming console through thick and thin. Let's enjoy this silly series of delectable video game memes for all of the gamers amongst us to relate to.
There is a whole lot of bad advice out there. And not just financial or relationship advice. Literal survival advice. And that's the most basic thing. So here is some clarification to dispel some of the more popular survival myths that people like to propagate. And to increase your odds even more, here are some basic survival rules everyone should know.
Just, don't try to renegotiate the price of a used good sale on pickup. It has to be the most infuriating thing.
I'm a big cyclist and generally have more parts lying around than I know what to do with. Back when I was working at a bike shop I had some tires for sale on Facebook marketplace. I put them up at a great price and got tons of messages. The same as OP I just went with the first message because first come first serve.
The guy comes to collect the tires, recognizes me from the shop, and immediately starts trying to renegotiate the price "since I got them at a discount". He ended up going home without tires and the second person who messaged got a good deal.
Props to u/snsgrg for not putting up with this guy's BS and getting more money out of him in the end.
