'By 9AM, I'm on my 18th glass of sweet tea': Texan explains the daily routine for rootin' tootin' cowboys, which includes practicing yeehaws, gargling beers, and jacking up yer pickup truck

Cowboys and cowgirls are giddyupping faster than the world can follow, chugging sweet tea, room temperature beers, and yeehawing all the way to the Whataburger. Southern American lifestyle is an enigma to the rest of the world. The only thing more American than a standardized mayonaise-midwesterner is a true, pure bred Texan. The Lone Star State has an insane vibe that the rest of the country just can't match. Their blood is pickle juice, their trucks are tall, and they will always– ALWAYS– remember the Alamo. 

A Texan influencer recently created a short that captured the essence of the Texan lifestyle by running through a day in his life. For non Texans, you just wouldn't understand the duties and diligence required to maintain our nation's biggest state's honor. Those stereotypes aren't going to uphold themselves. So slide on your cowboy boots and grab yourself a glass of sweet tea, the whole point of this is to enlighten the world on all things Longhorn.

**solemnly** Therefore… yeehaw. 

'I have no interest working for you': 30+ entitled people getting their much-deserved comeuppance

Is there anything more satisfying than bearing witness to an entitled person facing the fact that they have absolutely no power? There's a special kind of satisfaction that comes with people getting their much-deserved comeuppance. These Redditors know that all too well. They shared their stories via this thread on r/AskReddit. 

 

The main takeaway from all these stories is that no matter who you are, where you live, or what industry you work in, you will come across people who think they have more authority than they actually do. Call it karma or whatever, but the truth of the matter is all these so-called "authoritarian figures" had it coming and deserved the treatment that they received. Think of it as the equivalent of getting a taste of their own medicine. As Justin Timberlake once said, what goes around comes around. Keep scrolling below for the full anecdotes.

'If you're reading this, you've won $50': Parents bribe kids to clean bathroom but make an ultimatum

Whatever it takes to get your kids to clean up after themselves! This thread was posted to Reddit's r/funny subreddit by u/prevuznack, who shared that she and her husband hid a note in their bathroom to see if their kids would find it. The note would reward them with $50 provided that they clean the bathroom like they were asked to, but there's a catch.

 

The note, which was dated January 17th, 2023, also states that the number of days between when the note was written and when it was found will be taken from the total. As many folks in the comments pointed out, this could end up becoming a lesson on debt and/or interest, considering that it's very likely these kids won't discover the note after 50 days. While it could be fun to watch this all unfold from an objective perspective, it might not be fun for the parents to see it all happen if the dirty bathroom ends up attracting unwanted creatures. Was this genius parenting or is it a parenting FAIL in the making?

20+ People Share the Subtle Signs That Someone is an A-Hole

If someone is snapping their fingers at waitstaff, shouting down a customer service rep, or abusing a stranger—they're an a-hole—absolutely no question about it; by acting in this way, they have broadcast their character loud and clear to the rest of us. But not all a-holes are quite so blatant; some do an incredible job of disguising themselves as a well-meaning person—a wolf in sheep's clothing—if you will. These people can go undetected for long periods of time, only exposing themselves in small, subtle ways. 

These Redditors gathered on a thread posted to the popular r/AskReddit subreddit in order to share their thoughts on what these things might be. "What are [the] minor red flags that you use [to] see as a subtle but very indicative sign the other person is an a**hole?" the original poster, u/mountcoffee, posed. 

I—uhh, found that very wordy and hard to get out, so I'm rephrasing this question to: "What subtle red flags indicate that someone is an a**hole?"

Keep reading for this collection of responses, and feel free to share with us some thoughts of your own.

'He thinks he will catch a lunch thief. Of course, he ends up flashbanging himself': Kevin manager goes on rampage to find out who stole his sandwich

Tuna sandwich thieves, your days are numbered once this bumbling manager finds you! 

This is the story of "Kevin: The Last Grocery Emperor," a colorful and imaginative grocery store manager. As told by one of Kevin's employees, the man was a tyrant at this grocery store. He seems more or less incapable of actually leading a team, and is way more concerned with one thing: guarding his lunch from the lunch thief. Someone was stealing Kevin's precious tuna sandwich, and he'd be darned if he'll let them get away with that! 

This Kevin is incredibly goofy, and I'm genuinely surprised he didn't get anyone hurt. At one point in this story, he does something completely disgusting, and I actually can't believe that no one called the health department on that man. The workers were well paid, so they were willing to put up with pretty much anything!

‘I Won’t Sign Your Weird Contract’ : College Student Dodges Unfair Grading via Malicious Compliance, Professor Left Speechless When She Can’t Fail Her

Study guides are basically the hail mary of every student, but there are professors who don't believe in this practicality — because they would rather encourage their students to read the entire material, adding to the sublime mountain of headache they already have. In my opinion, any professor who does this is simply lazy. Why don't the students just buy the books and not pay for classes? It would certainly be much cheaper. Thanks for adding to the small fortune I owe to the banks called student debt.

It turns out that this professor was one of those types of people. Moreover, she apparently handed out a 'grading contract' that no student had formerly agreed to when they joined her class. This contract asked the students to indicate what grade they wanted at the start of the semester, and if they did not meet the conditions for that grade, they would fail.

To be perfectly frank, I find this ludicrous. In a nutshell — if the students want an A, they either meet the qualifications for said A, or fail — even if they could have gotten a lesser grade and passed the class? It makes no sense. So one student in particular decided that she would not conform to these stupid rules, and via malicious compliance, passed the class without actually doing the final at all.
