'Fallout' Memes to Leave Your Sides Bursting at the Seams (March 30th, 2022)


Feast your eyes on this treasured collection of marvelous Fallout memes. Each one should take you right back to your days trudging through the wastelands of post-apocalyptic wonder with your trusted companion, Dogmeat, at your side. They might even help you brush off the disappointment of Fallout 76. 

The only thing to ensure is that you end up in the correct Vault. Hopefully, one that's sole purpose wasn't the conduction of some cruel experiment on its unwitting subjects. Was there ever a meme vault? That would be the place to be, but Vault-Tec would probably find a way to screw that up. It would likely be some setup like 'A Clockwork Orange' where your eyes are peeled open, and you're forced to watch memes endlessly, receiving electroshock therapy every time you fail to laugh at a meme you should have laughed at. 

Vault or not, we may quickly find ourselves in that reality anyway. 

 

Internet Roasts Husband Who Demanded His Wife Pack Lunches For His Coworkers


The internet is astounded that this husband could be so immature as to ask his wife to pack lunches for his coworkers. Even though his wife loves cooking and packing her husband's lunches, her affection does not extend to these complete strangers.

The wife, Reddit user u/ThrowAITApackedlunch, posted the topic to Reddit's r/AmIthea**hole subreddit this week following the confrontation with her husband. She has appealed to commenters to see whether or not she is in the wrong for refusing to pack lunches for the husband's coworkers. 

The thing is, she even did it once, just to try it out. She had to get up incredibly early to prepare everything for the lunches and found the entire experience too exhausting to repeat. The problem was that the meal was such a smashing success that her husband wanted to make it a weekly thing, with little regard or thanks for how much effort that one time had taken her. 

You can sort of see what the husband must be thinking here. In his tiny brain, all that is going on is "Wife cook gooood. Coworker like? Raise, get." It's a little sweet in a way… if he wasn't being so childish and demanding about the whole thing. 

 

Stalker Ex-Girlfriend Determined to Be the Mother of Ex-Boyfriend's Son, Shows Up to Birthday Uninvited, Gets Kicked Out


A couple experienced a tragic end to their relationship over ongoing fertility issues that appeared to be originating from the boyfriend. When the couple went their separate ways he had a one-night stand with another woman and accidentally got her pregnant. This "miracle" pregnancy gave him his son, but now the ex-girlfriend is determined to be a part of their lives, in a twisted sort of way.

This thread was posted to Reddit's r/AmItheA**hole subreddit by the boyfriend, Reddit user u/r_marksss728, this week. 

He shared the story following an extremely awkward affair that occurred during his son's birthday party. Unannounced and uninvited, his Ex decided that it would be a good idea for her to show up. She is determined to be a part of their lives, especially since the son's mother has tragically passed away.

In terms of the topic at hand, it is easy to see that the boyfriend is in no way in the wrong here. He has made his stance clear with his Ex that he has no desire to have her involved in his life in any way. 

That being said, I can also see where it would be hard for the ex-girlfriend to go through all of these unreconcilable issues with fertility, only for the man you had loved to go off and immediately start a family with someone else (albeit accidentally.) She definitely isn't dealing with things the right way but the entire story is an utter tragedy.

 


 

Sweet 90s Nostalgia To Make Things Right Again


We don't have time machines. And it doesn't seem like we'll have time machines in this lifetime, since we already did that thing where you say to yourself "alright if I have a time machine in the future, I will travel back in time to right NOW!" and all we got was stares from the other funeral guests.

But honestly, the greatest time machine is the mind. Whenever we so choose, we can use the magical power of imagination to think back to when times when things were simpler, more beautiful, and littered with Blockbusters. And the uranium that powers our mind time machines is images of all the TV shows, snacks and doodads from that most wonderous time of our lives.

The overwhelming nostalgia is enough to make one want to hop on a bike, make a ramp out of dirt, and head straight for that bad boy with minimal concern for your own well being.

Warning, this is recreational nostalgia. Don't get hooked on this powerful stuff. Don't become us.

But for another hit of the good stuff, here's some sweet seductive nostalgia to help run away from the present.
