Sometimes, it's easier to will ourselves into believing a blatant lie, cause it's just that--easier. Unpacking and deconstructing a lie (scam), can be exhaustive, require effort, and very little at that; but, it does. Without it, we can find ourselves in the middle of getting forked around by a pyramid scheme we set out to play into with the best of personal intentions; without knowing what was actually happening.

These tweets are brimming with the imperfections and brutal truths and painful beauty of a relationship between two individuals. While marriage is not essential to experience these moments, these tweets are intended to represent parts of different married couple's lives; and you might still relate to it, as someone floating through life, non-committed, and just doing your own thing. That being said you're more likely to encounter some of these experiences, in a marriage!

We've all had our fair share of bad jobs. When you have no skills or experience, there's a good chance your only option is a position with crappy hours, brutal conditions and high turnover rate. As glamorous as "artist" sounds in the job title "Sandwich Artist," there are some clear red flags indicating the types of jobs it would behoove you to avoid.

When people projectile word vom*t their undigested thoughts on social media, the rest of the internet, occasionally steps up to correct the stupid. In these cases, we're dealing with a nice dose of spicy wit and unapologetically brutal logic. The ensuing public "conversations" or moments, are pretty entertaining. See for yourself.

This newfound Cat Father happened upon one unbelievable catsh*t crazy kind of situation, under his bed! Sometimes, you've gotta listen to those paternal instincts, and let it ride. In this case, he follows his instincts, and makes swift power moves, like cancelling his malt whiskey and comics order. Already sounds like he's acting on some love, and can you blame him? Kittens have an uncanny knack for breaking down the most hardened of emotional exteriors, with profound cuteness.

JK Rowling has taken to Twitter to share her updated takes, or answers, to people's pressing questions about how the wizarding world of Harry Potter fits into the "woke" world of the present. Enough of these responses collected over time, and left people finding themselves inspired to "lovingly" meme JK Rowling's hypothetical future answers. The results made for some entertaining memes!

This rattled ex-pizza place employee shared his troubling story about a self-proclaimed family man's method for picking up, and carrying out pizza's from the establishment. The picture describe is one riddled with confusion, distress, and outrage. What compels a man to lug around pizzas like that? Is it a deep anger with the world? Is it gross indifference? Who's to say! This twitter thread's a steaming slice of entertainment and intrigue, and we hope you enjoy.

It's not every day that you make such a colossal mistake that you cost your employer over a million dollars in damage. Luckily for him, this wasn't even the worst case scenario. If you're into Navy humor, here's an awesome story of the bold moves over the laziest naval officer ever.

If only the stories didn't predate DnD by 20ish years right? That being said, maybe this will clarify some of the murkier points throughout Lord of the Rings, for anyone who found themselves confused, while having a decent grasp on DnD knowledge.

There's so many signs, toys and products being designed all the time that some of them are inevitably not going to be proofread. And boy are we grateful for that. We wish more people made stupid mistakes that render their bookstore accidentally filthy. Here's to measuring once before cutting.

Sure, there's the classics like "when I say I'm not thinking about anything I'm actually not thinking about anything" but that's just the tip of the iceberg. In most cases it's helpful to know what's going on in someone else's head. Except when it's absolutely disgusting. We tried not to include too much, but some got through anyway.

This guy's showing us, yet again, that not all heroes wear capes. Some of the more resourceful ones employ adorable little RC toys to clean out the rubble from their basement. Why do the work yourself when a mini-excavator will do it for you.

Libraries ain't all dusty bookshelves and tense silence and librarians that can inspire you to feel hyper aware of every noise you throw into their atmosphere. Sometimes, they exercise a sense of humor to go along with the books they provide. See for yourself. Some of these might write laughter into your state of being.

Bloomberg's, Joe Nocera, asks the internet whether or not they think the rich really ever paid 90% of their income to the "taxman." Check out some of his findings that were shared on Twitter. The results might surprise you, or make total sense. It's a funny thing: people making a whole lot of money, can (key word being, "can") put up a long-drawn out fight to keep their money. These are some of those moments.

These people threw their lies out on the internet for the online world to eat up; and the ones committed to calling out dishonesty with the untold truth, did what they could. As far as we know these are fitting examples of quityourbs, but maybe there's even more to the picture. Every now and again, the one telling the alleged "bullsh*tter" to drop the act, is doing some of the bullsh*tting themselves. A wild world we live in, and lies can distort the real picture, when people allow themselves to get caught up in telling them.

Tumblr users put their heads together to work themselves into a hysterical fit over what an "angel" could look like, if you ever come across one. The results could be viewed as absolutely terrifying. Some of the images provided fit the bill for what some of us describe as a monster, even.

Ever had a boss that wanted to do something you knew was stupid, like standing on a ladder supported by a second ladder, supported by something on wheels? And you're like "I think this is unsafe" and he's all "this is how we've done it for years and nothing bad has happened, I mean except that one time." Man, screw that noise.

As nice as it would be to fix our agriculture system by having a box of blob-shaped apples sent to your house every month, apparently things aren't as easy as that. Dr. Dara Taber elaborates on the concept of food waste in America.

This doctor's office is NOT messing around when it comes to broadcasting their rules to the population of anti-vaxxers outside their door. They make it clear that their doors are not open to anyone who has actively chosen to not receive the measles vaccination. And if their slides aren't enough to sway any minds undecided on vaccination, then take a peek at this heartfelt Roald Dahl letter. I imagine their unapologetically, fortified stance on vaccinations, and whether people choose or choose not to receive them, has stirred up a ruckus in the community of anti-vaxxers.

Yeah, being late to work or stepping in dog poop does suck, but things could be worse. You could be publicly humiliated, accidentally cause an enormous amount of property damage, or even come into mortal danger. Some unfortunate situations are more ridiculous or ironic than others. Chances are you aren't having all of this happen to you right now.
