'This horse accomplished more in 25 seconds than I have in 35 years': 25 Deranged fails from the YouTube comments section


Since YouTube started in 2005, people have spent roughly a bajillion hours watching music videos, streamers, vloggers, and sketches, and they've been leaving hilarious comments to boot. Below is a fine collection of the cringiest and funniest comments found under YouTube videos.

My favorite is probably the guy who requested to know what song was playing in a video, and came back after 10 whole years to find out no one had told him the answer yet. The YouTube comments community had a solid decade and y'all let him down! Another person who claims they pauses songs to let Eminem breathe while he's rapping is also a winner in my book.

'[She] starts SCREAMING at us to tell her who was late': Students get teacher fired in glorious tale of malicious compliance


There's nothing like a success story about rebelling against authority. In this case, the setting was a Catholic high school, and the authority figure was the senior-year Social Justice teacher (ah, the irony!). 

 

This thread was posted to Reddit's r/MaliciousCompliance subreddit by u/lalalakee, who reflected on their former years as a high school student and shared this epic tale. For context, this Social Justice teacher was new to the school and was extremely strict. So strict that she locked the doors to the classroom for the daily morning prayer and pledge of allegiance. Even though the bell to the first class hadn't officially rung, she would consider students to be late if they missed either of those "essential" activities. Sounds like a bit much, don't you think? Well, the students all thought so, and when a kid was late one day, they all rallied around him instead of following the teacher's rules.

‘Who Doesn’t Expect Noise at a Gym?’ : Stubborn Entitled Dude Appalls Gym Goers by Being Disrespectful and Selfish, Continuously Ignores Requests to Be Quiet


Firstly, a quick shoutout to Darwin's brilliant theory of evolution… the flaws in how humans have evolved are no secret to any of us. Just enter the nearest Mcdonald's — I dare say 15 minutes won't go by without some kind of incident occurring, most likely involving an entitled person who takes their 3-dollar burger very seriously. Evidently, some humans have not quite evolved as we'd have hoped, and are clearly deficient in brain cells.

 

Particularly those linked with public decency. We all know a couple of these people ourselves, although we really wish we didn't. Whether it be that one overly loud person on the bus with their phone on speaker, complaining to their bestie about an insufferable coworker of theirs (Karen), completely missing the irony of the situation. Or the impatient idiot who cuts in line at the grocery store because 'he's tired of waiting' (lol, y'dont say?!). And let's not forget about that one neighbor who is apparently capable of playing the drums only in the early hours of the morning, oblivious to the social norms of sleep.

 

While scrolling through r/AITA, I stumbled across a post written (surprise) by a very entitled dude who lives in a nice little bubble. You can check it out down below. A few people were less than happy with his behavior. Feel free to click here for a tale of delicious malicious compliance.

Decide their fate: Help this Redditor respond to their intrusive boss


One Redditor has a nosy boss who's about to get way more sass than they bargained for! The OP shared this post to r/antiwork to ask for help, because clearly they need it while working for this overbearing boss

The poster shared an email from their boss that starts off saying, " Are you out sick today and tomorrow, or was the hours on your timesheet an error. Be reminded that you cannot use sick time in lieu of vacation days. They are not interchangeable." Um, why so nosy though? 

This person was having none of it, so they reached out to the internet to help them decide. Some posters shared actually great advice, while others had lots of joke ideas to consider. Much to think about! Feel free to comment your own advice to this person, and who knows, maybe they'll choose your response to tell their boss to shove it (professionally).

'Your mom is nuts': Unhinged Mom refuses to fix huge hole in kid's bedroom


This lady has taken things way too far! Currently, she is separated from her husband, but they have been living together under the same roof with their 19-year-old kid for several years now despite the fact that they straight-up hate each other.

 

The 19-year-old shared their story via this thread on Reddit's r/entitledparents subreddit, and let's just say that folks in the comments section were in complete agreement about one thing: the original poster needs to GTFO immediately. The fact that there is a large 3ft by 3ft HOLE in their bedroom and after all this time, the mom refuses to get it fixed? What purpose is she serving at this point? It's not even her ex-husband's bedroom! Before she knows it, this house is going to get condemned, and they will all have to move. Our advice? It's time to solely communicate with your Dad and then begin plans to start looking for your own place.

'You've got to be effing kidding me': Young Karen faces off with old lady at amusement park


The lesson here is to never mess with someone named Ida! This young Karen in the making learned that lesson the hard way and at an amusement park, of all places.

 

This thread was posted to Reddit's r/F***YouKaren subreddit by u/johnandahalf13, who shared an anecdote about getting an event pass to a famous amusement park and getting to enter the park an hour before it opened to the public. Young Karen was, of course, pretty pissed off that she didn't get to enjoy those same privileges. When she tried to get into the park early without the event pass, a 90-year-old woman working for the park named Ida got in her way. When young Karen decided to drop the F-bomb in front of dear old Ida, things got a whole lot worse for her.

'I'm A Genius!' : Funniest Verdicts By Shower Masterminds That Are Spot On


I am convinced that good ideas were not born throughout the day while dealing with a bunch of issues and complications at work. Take Isaac Newton, for example. Although there is no evidence to suggest that an apple actually landed on his head (To be fair, this was a long time ago, before social media informed everybody of what every human being was doing at any given moment), we are led to believe that his observation of the fact, caused him to develop his law of universal gravitation. As in, when he was resting. Which is the equivalent of taking a long hot (or cold, if you're a Wim Hof fan) shower, while leaning your head against the bathroom wall, sighing to yourself lazily, when suddenly what we like to call 'A Shower Thought' pops up.

 

Lucky for us, there is a place to share our expert opinions, philosophical ponderings, and general jibber jabber. It's called Reddit, and I am personally a huge fan. You have an endless supply of weird, interesting, creative and stupid content on there, categorized into different subreddits. That, my friends, is where I found these hilarious shower thoughts that made me go 'Damn, I never thought about it like that'. So without further ado, scroll down and check it out for yourself.
