The Dumbest Coworkers People had the Privilege of Working Side by Side With

There's not a single thought in their head

Twitter Users Share Stupid Reasons They Took Their Pet to the Vet

People care about their pets, like a lot. So it's no question that a lot of us have stories about rushing a pet to the vet at the slightest indication that something is wrong. The problem with animals is that they don't talk, so unless you have a really smart parrot, your not going to be able to grill them about where exactly their stomach hurts. As it so happens, it's not uncommon for people to rush their distressed pet to a medical professional and throw down a few hundred bucks to be told "yeah, sometimes they're like that."

It's definitely good to have the peace of mind that your dog isn't dying and that it actually sat on a dead bee and freaked out for four hours, but at the same time, really dude? You couldn't have just told me that was your issue? We could have had this solved hours ago if you just spoke up.

25 Hilariously Specific Times People and Things Were Singled Out

Sometimes it's just not your day. It could be because of something you did, like eat everyone's lunches, that has made you into the pariah of the workplace. But more often than not, you'll just be minding your own business when you see a sign that says "you suck." And all you can really do at that point is shrug your shoulders and say "I knew the universe was out to get me. Every paranoid thought I ever had about the world has just been confirmed, and I should now choose to follow my invasive thoughts all the way down to the one logical conclusion."

It doesn't feel very good to be singled out, but at the same time, watching someone else get singled out can be pretty funny. Especially if you can really tell that it's actively causing them longstanding psychological harm.

Here are some more humorously absurd times people and things got singled out.

Parent Brings Disruptive Baby To Child-Free Wedding, Doesn't Understand Why They're In The Wrong

So this parent was invited to a wedding that explicitly asked for no kids to be present. Instead of taking the time to make any arrangements, they decided that this rule didn't apply to them, and did a "write-in" on their RSVP about how they were bringing a baby anyway. Of course the baby cried during the ceremony, and now they're in massive denial about having been the asshole in this situation. It's frankly amazing watching people try to bend reality in their favor.

And their defense? "I didn't mean to start any drama." Claims of intent don't really mean anything when you've already successfully demonstrated to everyone around you that you're not going to listen to their wishes. Sometimes it's hard for people to understand that they're not the main character of life itself, and it's kind of a shame.

Maybe having hundreds of people on the internet explain in excruciating detail what they did wrong will help them see what's up, but you can never be too sure.

33 People's Dumbest "Oh No, You're Not Kidding" Moments

It's easy to find yourself in a situation where you're pretty sure the other person is being dumb or insane, but they're so confident about it that it makes you question your own reality. 

When someone says something so uncouth, absurd or straight up dumb that we just can't believe them, it's reasonable to assume that they're just joking. When some dude says "do you want confetti on your fries" our brains do the social math and land on "haha, that would be crazy." But then when that same dude gets upset and says "why are you laughing at me, confetti is my favorite food" you're put into a corner where there's no graceful way out. So you shrug and go "fine dude. I guess go ahead and give me the piñata fries, extra birthday."

For some more humbling moments, here are satisfyingly times people witnessed someone's ego get crushed.

Karen Demands Nonexistent Mystery Muffins, Manager Demands New-Hire Finds Them

You've just started working your brand new job at the muffin shop (Yeah, I know it's a cafe -same thing) you're full of that fresh youthful vigor that comes along with starting a job in a new place and looking forward to what the day brings. 

"Oh boy! Can't wait to sell some muffins!" You think to yourself as your manager, Steve, sets you up to run the Front of House. 

Your first customers of the day come in and you greet them with a cheery smile. Right off the bat, they're not reciprocating your attempts to be friendly to a fellow human being. You're just there to serve them, why would they owe you a shred of human decency?

They're demanding and entitled and begin asking for things that don't actually exist. As things escalate they demand to see Steve, who is frustrated at you now for bothering him, and proceeds to take Karen's side to save face and avoid conflict. 

Now you're stuck between a brick wall and an angry bear with no way to escape and no solution to the problem at hand. 

Repeat this daily and soon you, like any other retail or service worker, are dead inside behind your forced facade of a smile.
