Dad Gives His Stepson an Equal Share of His Inheritance, Faces the Wrath of His Biological Children


You know that feeling when your father drafts his will in such a messed up way that it becomes clear he should really be investing in therapy instead?

 

This thread was posted to Reddit's r/AmITheA**hole subreddit by u/Particular-Song-5748, who described a recent fight with his biological children (now in their 30s) after telling them that he plans to give his stepson the same percentage of his inheritance. To clarify: his stepson (12 years old) has only been in the father's life for 4 years now, and although he denies this, it's quite clear that his preferential treatment towards his stepson is an attempt to right the wrongs of the past when his biological kids were young.

 

You'd think a better way to right those wrongs would involve focusing his attention on the biological kids themselves, but I guess a 62-year-old man's mind works in mysterious ways. It should also be noted that the biological kids played a role in expanding their dad's business and helping him become successful later in life. What a completely idiotic move to then give them less inheritance, especially when they played such a large part in his later success in the first place!

Fast Food Worker Comes Into Work the Morning After Their Birthday Party in Quite the State


We've all been this person the morning after our birthday parties…

 

This thread was posted to Reddit's r/MaliciousCompliance subreddit by u/Gunn_Show, who shared their experience working at a certain famous fast food restaurant and having to come in the morning after their big birthday party. Some of the imagery in this post is too visceral. Having to vom every time you have to crack an egg in the kitchen will now forever be on my mind…and in full view of the front counter too! Imagine walking into that fast food restaurant, ordering your breakfast sandwich, and seeing that sight in the background as your food is being prepared. 

 

Anyway, thankfully, the manager seemed to show the Redditor some mercy, and the two of them became close afterward. A very unlikely ending to a story that could have gone in a very different direction.

'Why would you do this?': Guy strands entitled friends after they lock him out of his own camper


After kindly offering to drive his best friend and co to a "Spartan race" in another state, this guy's services were kindly repaid when they locked him out of his own camper for the night. The reasoning given was somewhere along the lines of there not being enough room (which was told to him through a locked door that they refused to open.)

Broke Memes For People Who Are Contemplating Whether Or Not To Cryopreserve Their Bodies


Somehow the paycheck rolls around and just keeps rolling. 
Before you know it, your bank account is on a negative number and you're left wondering what the hell happened.
One look in the mirror with that sheepish grin, and you know what happened - you happened.
Whether you're spending it on important grown-up things or happen to see a 50% sale on that website you've been eyeing recently, the digits add up and you moan and groan at the next happy hour to your friends, who moan and groan right back.
It's comforting to know that so many of us are in the same boat.
Anyway, you only live once right?
There should be a broke club where we all gather and offer sacrifices to the many gods in hopes that they favor us and send a Christmas bonus in early.
Or we could just cryopreserve our bodies and hope those crazy ass scientists wake us up when the economy has gotten better.
But then, you'd need about 150 thousand dollars, so maybe that isn't much of an option!
Enjoy the memes we've put together as we've procrastinated while doing our actual job.
