Women Who Regret Giving A Creepy Guy A Chance


If hanging out with someone makes your skin crawl, and they try to use guilt to get you to go out with them in the first place, you can rest assured that it's probably not gonna get better from there.

There's a massive difference between being creepy and just being weird. Tons of people are weird, but typically weird people know that fact, and they are able to let their weirdness manifest itself as dorkiness, quirkiness, or at the very least, eccentricity. But there's a vast difference between being super into medieval history and being the type of person who makes people want to take a shower after meeting you.

And don't go thinking there's a deeper integrity to someone's terrible creepiness. It's a lot safer to assume that people wear their intentions on their sleeves, so when someone who you just met seems to know a lot more about you than what you've actually told them, don't go trick yourself into thinking that it will get better.

Here are some folks who went against better judgement and dated creeps. And here's a delusional nice guy who went bananas on an engaged coworker.

Nurse Makes Trashy Judgement About Patient, Mad She's Been Called Out


A nurse made an assumption and then proceeded with an inappropriate judgment and course of action. Her patient had had enough and reacted to her treatment. Now the patient is wondering if she went too far. 

This thread was posted to r/AITA (Am I the Asshole) by the patient, u/teenmistakethrowaway (OP), who was facing judgment from the nurse. She is posting this thread to share her story and see whether or not she is in the wrong for her reactions to the nurse's attitude towards her.

She notes that the nurse was very standoffish towards her until the end of the appointment when OP mentioned her "husband." This led to the nurse realizing that OP was not as young as she had thought. The nurse had assumed that u/teenmistakethrowaway was very young based on her appearance, which u/teenmistakethrowaway notes is something that happens to her quite frequently.

Boyfriend Tries Controlling Girlfriend's Shower Temperature, Thinks He Is The Victim


It's pretty normal for showers to steam. This guy either takes lukewarm showers, or is under the impression that a steaming shower means that the water is literally boiling your skin to pieces. And if that's the case, he just needs a science lesson. Also, he's very interestingly concerned by his bathroom's ability to handle steam, which is kind of a standard thing that bathrooms should be able to do, right? Is his shower curtain made of crepe paper? But the real weirdness here is this guy's insistence on policing the showering habits of his soon-to-be ex-girlfriend.

Not only does this guy go so far as to insist she shower differently, he also decided that it's reasonable to remove the lock so he can more easily invade her privacy to check and make sure she's showering in the manner that he personally deems acceptable.

For some more curious unreasonable-ness, here's the wife who insisted her family be able to stay while a nurse changes her husband's catheter.

Random Funny Tumblr Gems To Vibe To Or Not


The thing about the internet is that you can never really know who you're talking to. Any number of the squawking typers of the web could be your mailman, your hairstylist, or even your mom. And every one of us is absolutely packed with thoughts. Most of them are pointless and stupid. Some of them are terrifically wise, even mind-blowing. But the one thing in common is that they all show up in the same place. And we, the people, are left to discern whether or not a thought is worthwhile based only on its content rather than the life on the other side of the hidden mouth that's saying it.

And when it comes to Tumblr, a whole lot of it is just gonna be about movies from the mid to late 2000s. Some of it will be profound and some of it will be mockable. So, y'know, take it all with a grain of salt.

Here are some more funny tumblr gems uncovered from the deep.

Milkshake Mistake Leads to Absolute Piss-Take


When this customer approached the food service worker at the local ice cream joint to complain about the fact that their milkshake wasn't milky enough they couldn't possibly have imagined just how milky their milkshake could get.

This story was posted by u/chsser who shared it to the popular r/MaliciousCompliance subreddit. They wrote this story to tell about a regular who used to come in every day for a shake. Chsser states that this regular was generally a pretty chill guy about most things but was extremely particular about how "milky" his milkshake was. 

"This dude would summon the might of satan if his milkshake wasn't made with enough milk in it. Worse, he would sit there and wait until you remade it to his liking." explains chsser.

Chsser had had enough of this and did what every customer service person wishes they could do… They maliciously complied with the customer's every demand and made them the milkiest milkshake possible.
