Funniest Autumn Fails for the First Week of Fall

Some things should not have a pumpkin spice flavor, people!

 

You've probably heard or maybe just looked outside, but the first week of fall is upon us. Here at FAIL Blog, we want to celebrate with some autumn fails. Yup, that's right. Not everything goes with this season, contrary to what your coworker thinks. You know, the one who's already wearing a scarf even though it's still 70 degrees outside. The one who already has her entire Halloween plans figured out. The one who's drinking like 5 pumpkin spice lattes a day and bringing way too much Sad Girl Autumn energy into the office. Yeah, that one.

 

Let's take a step back and recognize that fall is literally just a season. It happens every year. Sure, you can be excited about it. I'm not here to ruin someone's vibe. But I am here to remind those of you who are high on pumpkin spice that too much of anything can be bad for you. Or how about just really annoying? As these memes and tweets will indicate, fall overkill is real.

Woman's Ex-Boyfriend Calls the Cops When He Moves Out, She Mocks Him With a Cop Photo Shoot

Nothing like a bottle of wine and two Party City cop costumes to get proper revenge on your ex.

 

This thread was posted to Reddit's r/AmITheA**hole subreddit by u/ExtensionPresent15, who was dating her high school sweetheart for 4 years and even chose to go to the same college as him per his request so they could be together (red flag). 

 

Eventually, he dumped her and slept on the couch for a week before moving out. On the day of his move, however, she was surprised to find two cop cars waiting outside the whole time…as if she was some kind of threat. She thinks maybe he was nervous her father was going to show up. Who knows? Point is, it was an act of hostility so what did she do to get back at him? 

 

Wine, Party City, and a social media photo shoot of her and her friend in cop costumes. Take notes, people. This is how you get back at someone while also just trying to make light of a messy situation.

'I automated my job': Developer discovers a way that they can work for 10 minutes a day from home

There has been a sharp increase in the recent trend of posts of employees claiming to have automated their jobs as soon as they were asked to work from home or remote full-time.

This poster claims to have set up a remote workstation for their tech job. And "in about a week" they were able to "write, debug, and perfect a simple script that performed [their] entire job."

It all just goes back to that old saying, often attributed to Billionaire Bill Gates, "I will always choose a lazy person to do a difficult job because a lazy person will find an easy way to do it."

Often companies aren't willing to pay employees enough to warrant their extra effort and innovation. A lack of trust between the two parties can hinder actual progress as the employee often fears that their own innovation could make them redundant.

This is probably why we see stories like this popping up so frequently. When the chance presents itself, tech-savvy employees are more than happy to dramatically increase the efficiency of their tasks, but they need to know that they can trust their employer to reward that innovation, rather than blindly punish it.

All of this was what led Redditor u/throwaway59724 to automate their role at the first chance possible.

Their script was able to scan on-site drives for new files and then process them as required. u/throwaway59724 now reports that they now "Clock in every day, play video games or do whatever, and at the end of the day [they] look over the logs to make sure everything ran smoothly… then clock out. [They're] only at their desk maybe 10 minutes a day."

It sure sounds like u/throwaway59724 has unlocked a cheat code to life. All they had to do was enter the following into their menu screen at startup: Up, Up, Down, Down, Left, Right, Left, Right, B, A.

Mom Lets Son's Ex-Girlfriend Stay With Her, Then Attends Her Graduation Instead of His

At first, it seemed like this woman was a saint. Then, it became clear that she straight up liked her son's ex more than her son.

 

This thread was posted to Reddit's r/AmITheA**hole subreddit by u/Bun_Range363, who clearly thought she was in the right when she was writing this. But people sounded off in the comments online and were very upfront about where she went wrong. It's one thing to show sympathy to your son's ex when she has no place to stay. It's another to choose to attend her college graduation over your own son's graduation. 

 

This mother clearly felt her son made a mistake in his relationship, and based on what we know from the few details given, he very well may have. But he was 17. And he's her kid. It's tough to watch people on these threads try to justify stupid decisions that are just begging to be criticized. The lack of self-awareness is eye-opening. Like this woman wrote this and genuinely thought we'd all understand.

 

For more bad decisions, take a look at this story about a guy who hid his girlfriend's toothbrush to "make a point."

Funniest Memes About Dating App Fails We Saw This Past Week

Ah, to date in the modern world. 
Was the world always this crazy or has the internet just made it that much easier to out people?
It's like they don't even try to hide it.
In fact, many like to take it upon themselves to virtually grab a megaphone, climb an invisible rooftop, and shout to the masses 'I probably need psychological help but instead I'm gonna share way too many details about my creepy preferences and expect the people who surf the internet to applaud me'.
 

There seems to be too much information readily available at any given moment, and the memes we've added below do a good job of proving that. 
Some people feel it necessary to make a point that they are not a serial killer (Because we all know that serial killers tend to be upfront about that), others are married and looking for 'friends' on Tinder (Obviously the best app to find your next bestie), and some people are freakishly honest about being attracted to women when they cry. 
Apps are delightful and cruel, designed to keep you swiping until you come across a profile that makes you gag and delete your account immediately, only to reopen it the second you're bored, lonely, or both.
Have fun scrolling through these ridiculous (but super funny) memes we've found, and remember…
You can't save everyone.
