Good stuff!

This guy tells the story of how he managed to keep a cool temper (thanks to his wife), and go on to outsmart what was arguably his worst customer of all time. Fair to say that this choosing beggar got so destroyed by this pro revenge that there's no way he'll think about trying his scam on someone else anytime soon!

We remember being idiot kids and doing stupid crap like wasting an employee's time on a joke order. That said, the humor is really lost once you've realized you've just spent money for a joke no one even payed any attention to. Here's a fun workplace prank of an employee who gets fake fired every time an awful customer shows up.

Maybe this driver was having a particularly bad day, maybe the box was heavy, but what seems clear is that this guy really doesn't care. Actually it's almost as if he hates the box and wants it to suffer. Word has it the package contained computer parts.

They say that that nothing can be certain except death and taxes, but it seems like there's always something trashy going on somewhere. You can trust that someone will be acting selfishly, be it stealing dinner plates for no reason, or leaving a futon on the highway. Trashy moments are a regrettable fact of life.

This guy made a grave mistake. And that mistake was one of him trying to tell a lady asking for money that he didn't speak English, while he very well did the whole time. It's tough to pull off the whole "I don't speak your language" thing when you're literally speaking their language right back to them.

School can be hard and regrettably expensive. Seeing your classmates not take anything seriously and still pass can be frustrating when you value your education, like this entitled college slacker who demanded their classmates notes and got denied. Also, if they're trying to be something like a doctor, you'd hope they actually study and know their field. This tutor got so frustrated with a ridiculously lazy student that he went and gave him some answers. Not the right answers, just some answers. Other teachers have wily ways of outsmarting cheaters, like this old professor.
