Tragic Passing of Baby's Father Causes Controlling Brother-In-Law to Try to Takeover

Some situations are so incredibly unfortunate that it's hard even to fathom what these people must be going through. This is one of those stories.

The poster describes that she is eight months pregnant and that her husband tragically passed away during the pregnancy. She has turned to his family for support, but her late husband's brother (her brother-in-law) has started trying to be controlling and acting like he is the father of the child or has an equivalent stake of some sort in the situation.

Overall, her in-laws, in general, seem to be trying to ensure that they have some control over this child's future now that the parent they're related to by blood is deceased. You can kind of feel for them and see where they are coming from, but at the same time, their actions and behavior must be terrifying for this mother-to-be.

This thread was posted to Reddit's r/AITA (Am I the A--Hole) subreddit by the mother who is wondering if she is wrong to tell her brother-in-law to take a step back.

Commenters resoundingly agreed that she was well within her rights and cautioned her to be careful with her late husband's family.

Photography Studio Fires Contractor, She Seizes All Their Equipment and Starts Her Own Studio, Drives Them Out of Business

Some people are determined to be as miserable and difficult as possible, for little-to-no reason, to the people around them. This employer certainly was one of those people. Being unnecessarily obstructive, obtrusive, and obtusive to your own employees is one way to set yourself up for the inevitable failure of your business. Even better if it is at the hands of your own employees, resulting from your own stupidity, that causes your downfall. 

This photographer was left with no other option when their recently ex-employer left thousands of dollars of equipment unattended in an unpaid-for storage unit. It was as if they were begging them to take the equipment at auction and open up their own studio to run them out of town, so that's exactly what they did.

This thread was posted to Reddit's r/ProRevenge by the photographer, u/BeatMeSaber, who told their absolutely epic tale of revenge on the popular sub. 

This thread may be long, but it got a fantastic response from the readers and is well worth the undertaking.

IT Work Memes For The People Who Keep The World Running

See, the thing about fixing computers is that you need to know just the right angle and speed to hit them. Only after a good number of sustained hits will a computer realize that it best shape up or there'll be another one coming, and they tend to realize that pretty fast. That's what's known as machine learning. After that, you can just keep a bat or sharp stick by your desk, and your computer will connect to the internet on the power of fear alone. No need to plug it into anything. Fear may be the oldest emotion, and computers may be very new, but most of them still have anxiety software installed.

In the rare case that you can't make your computer work with an iron fist and constant threats of violence, it may be time to call IT. Those folks really know what's going on in those electro-guts, and word has it they know even better threats and more hurtful words to call computers. And those slurs for machines? That's what's known as programming language.

Here are some tech memes for the computer fiends.
