'There's no law regulating what qualifies as 1 vs 2 or 3 star [review]': Upset customer ignites feud with a leather store over negative online review


One unhappy customer tried to write a 1-star review about a leather jacket they got …only to have the company clap back at them. 

It all started with a "name and shame" post, in which the OP told the r/Leathercraft community not to buy from this specific retailer. That's because they were really unhappy with the quality of the leather, citing about 30 imperfections. Then, when they reached out to the company, no one got back to the OP for several weeks. That was enough for the OP to want to spread the news of their poor experience. 

Thus launched a feud between the brand and the customer, with the brand demanding the OP take down the scathing review. However, the OP believes they should be allowed to write a bad review for what they felt was a bad product. Unlike many Reddit posts, there isn't a clear conclusion to who is in the right and who is in the wrong in this scenario. I think that everyone needs to apologize in this situation, but other people side strongly with OP or the company.

'Well, that's disgusting': Wild Airbnb Fails that show just how awful hosts and guests can be


We've all had an Airbnb horror story! And if you haven't yet, you will. Let's of course remember that there have been some great experiences too. But as we all know by now, one bad experience can sometimes make you completely forget about the good times. Keep scrolling below for a look at these Airbnb fails, which also include helpful guidelines on how to spot hidden cameras in your next Airbnb (a far more common occurrence than you might think!).

'Stop enabling your adult son': Mom lets entitled son bring fast food into cousin's wedding reception


There are times when you shouldn't let your McDonald's craving get the better of you. Your cousin's wedding is certainly one of those times.

 

How did this mother in good conscience post this thread to Reddit's r/AmITheA**hole subreddit and expect people to think she was in the right? Either she lacks any semblance of self-awareness or she's so desperate for likes on Reddit that she made the whole thing up. If we're going with the former, hopefully, the judges of the AITA community gave this lady plenty to think about, particularly when it comes to her son. The dude is 22 years old and, according to the original post, everyone else seemed to enjoy the food at the wedding. He should suck it up and wait until after he leaves to have his precious fast food. Instead, he brought it into the venue, handed food out to others, and left chicken bones on the floor.

Parents ditch babysitter with kids and put them on "do not disturb"


Parenting is exhausting; at its worst, it's like a marathon that you run uphill for 18 years with no water stations and no end in sight. That's why it's a godsend when you can find someone (whether a bribed family member or paid caretaker) who can take your child off you for a few hours. Of course, for some parents, this whole time is spent worrying whether or not the child is alright and being adequately cared for — others still might be able to enjoy their time but be relieved when they return home to their offspring.

'Wow, That Was Forward' : Most Delusional People On Dating Apps This Week


If you are one of the many people who have been convinced by their friends to use a dating app, we feel for you. 'Download Tinder!' They said. 'It'll be fun!' They said. And here you are, months into denial, thinking you'll meet your soulmate with the next swipe, or at the very least, a good FWB. Then you're left perpetually wondering why you ever listened to them because their promises are empty. The algorithm is obviously against you (and me, and everyone else) but it's just so addictive, you can't seem to stop.

 

You are guaranteed an endless supply of super hot people (Has anyone seen a Tinder ad recently? Those people on the poster DON'T EXIST) but it's all LIES. It's like when you know something is bad for you, but you want it anyway. Forbidden fruit and all that. And don't even get me started on the constant ghosting or the crazies… or the FOMO. So let's scroll down to make ourselves feel better that we are not the only ones stuck catching piranhas in an imaginary sea of fish.
