'Her hair is an eye sore': Bridezilla wants sister to change her appearance so that she's more aesthetic for her wedding photos


Should someone have to change their appearance for your wedding? To what degree? These are important factors that come into play in this thread and are in need of consideration.

This bride, Reddit user u/kjally76, posted her story to Reddit's r/AITA (Am I the A**hole) subreddit, wondering if she was in the wrong for the events that had taken place leading up to her wedding. She has been planning every last detail with careful thought but has met resistance in her carefully laid plans when it comes to her younger sister.

This sister is determined to maintain her appearance and refuses to change it in the ways that u/kjally76 is requesting. Her obstinate refusals have been a source of frustration for the bride, who is threatening to "Hulk Out" at any moment. 

There was an issue with the dress color, then an issue with the hair, and at every step of the way, the younger sister had continued to refuse. Some of the comments the bride has made in the post and her general attitude has led Redditors to decree that she is the "A**hole" here. I would hold that the younger sister's refusal to cooperate in any reasonable way means that they both are in the wrong or that "Everyone Sucks Here."

Application to Work at a Cat Café Requires Hand-Written Cover Letter and Ridiculous Creative Project


Can you imagine actually applying to this? This literal minimum wage job requires the most extensive application process, which includes three letters of recommendation, a hand-written cover letter/essay, and a weird creative project to show your entrepreneurial spirit. This thread was posted to Reddit's r/antiwork subreddit by u/PrintmakerDay, who came across the application online. 

 

Let's take a moment to unpack this application process for a bit longer. Firstly, are we serious about having to provide THREE letters of recommendation? Colleges don't even require that, yet a cat café does?! Next, there's the hand-written essay. This is the Digital Age, not the Pleistocene Era. Who are these owners? Now, onto the creative project. The prompt is so abstract and unfocused it makes me question the sanity (and sobriety) of the person who wrote this. Keep scrolling below to have a look for yourself! For more job application madness, here are a series of anecdotes about folks who walked out of their job interviews.

Entitled Wife Skips Family Funeral After Petty Mother-in-Law Purchased First Class Seat for Her Husband and Economy Seat for Her


Sure, this mother-in-law was petty, but this woman made it a whole lot worse. This thread was posted to Reddit's r/AmITheA**hole subreddit by u/Sadandexhuasted133, and here's the thing: I too would be sad and exhausted if I had an evil mother-in-law who seems to be constantly looking to start drama. That being said, this weekend was simply not about this woman's rivalry with her mother-in-law. It was, however, about her husband's loss, and she completely failed to recognize that.

 

People in the comments section were quick to say that everyone sucks in this scenario. I take issue with that. Sure, Monster-in-Law certainly could have gotten two economy tickets or two first-class tickets if she was feeling extra fancy. However, as the Redditor herself acknowledged, her petty behavior was nothing new and could easily have been predicted. So the original poster's decision to opt-out of supporting her husband over a stupid plane ticket says a whole lot about the kind of person she is. Keep scrolling below for the full story!

'I logged back into her account...': Dude devises ridiculously petty revenge, involves trolling ex's Netflix account


It's all Netflix and —no— chill over here. In a hilarious act of petty revenge, this dude decided to troll his ex's Netflix account in order to mildly inconvenience her life and exact a little revenge on her for cheating on him all those years ago. That might be the most surprising thing about this post; it's not as if they broke up yesterday. The user writes that she dumped him "A few years back," which means he has been holding onto this desire to get even for some time. 

We've probably all had that person or that relationship that took ages to move on from. These things stick with us, and sometimes they form deep wounds that never truly heal. After all, all the lessons, experiences, and people we've met make us into who we truly are.

Storage Facility Obstinately Charges Guy for Non-existent Box, so Guy Demands It Back


When facing an irrational opponent, it's impossible to beat them with rational thought —You need to meet them on the groundless battlefields of baseless reasoning. Anyone who has met an obstinately incorrect opponent has probably learned this lesson — there is no winning, so you must lose together.

That's exactly what this Reddit user, u/pappagall0, faced when they became lodged in debate with a storage company over the existence of a mysterious eighth box that the storage company insisted on charging him for. u/pappagall0 writes that the surplus they charged him was "quite a lot," but, despite his protests and repeated phone calls, they continued to charge him for this package. 

When it came time for them to collect their belongings, they began insisting that the storage facility return this extra 'Schrodinger's box' that they had so diligently been charging them for, which, of course, they couldn't find.
