Jerry sounds like a real gem of a human being. There's something plain old admirable about anyone who can maintain their self-esteem in spite of difficult, if not outright miserable external circumstances. Jerry was unfazed by all the BS regularly being thrown his way. And eventually he got the karmic reward he so deserved. Love how even when he ended up succeeding while his old boss failed, he still didn't take the opportunity to dance in glee around their messy debacle.
We can always rely on the wonderful, wandering, ever unpredictable minds of Tumblr to lead us down wild rabbit holes that we never would've gone down otherwise. In this case, we have a whole situation develop that's centered on the absurd national treasure that is the notorious "Spy Kids" movie. So many unanticipated cameos. Seriously, it was out of control. For some more gold from Tumblr check out this enlightening Tumblr thread which unpacks actual meanings of commonly exchanged phrases.
Oh man, the enforced clapping sounds like nothing short of a waking air-conditioned nightmare. These managers ended up firing the last guy they ever should've fired. From there the revenge was professional and utterly devastating. Fair to say that he absolutely ended up coming out on top. Check out another pro revenge tale with this bridezilla Karen who ended up looking like a pauper at her own wedding.
Star Wars "Legends" content has always been pretty variable in quality, but we're not interested in the safe stuff like Thrawn or Mara Jade—we're talkin' Luke seducing multiple dead girls, Leia trying to delay puberty through dance, and Jedi masters named after, uh, self love. This is Canonball.
Alright, I can't be the only one thinking that this sounds exactly like a cow trying to meow. With that being said, still wouldn't mess with this dude.
Honestly, this is wildly impressive. This guy's grip strength is heroic. Never thought about what it'd be like to try and sit in a robotic chair, but this guy went and did the dang thing. Props.
Sure, if the hill you're willing to die on costs four cents out of the charity bin, go ahead and die on that hill. Customers sometimes make demands with stupid implications, like this customer who wanted a pound of chicken wings and got less wings or this guy who demanded to ride in a go kart with no engine.
Life can seem like a big swirling pool of negativity sometimes, but it's important to remember that you have the ability to stop and focus on what's important. It's probably better for us in the long run to spend at least some time thinking about the things that make us happy, and baby that meanswholesome memes for a shot of niceness.
Honestly this whole party sounds like an absolute nightmare to serve. They were loud, rude, horribly messy, and terrible liars. It's not uncommon for a Karen to lie to a restaurant owner's face, causing some revenge to unfold. When bad customers try to strike back in the reviews section, they don't realize that some owners have all the time in the world to respond.
The internet stood in judgement of this intriguing case, wherein an overzealous wife of an employee vastly overestimated her powers. Managerial duties don't transfer via osmosis, but she sure felt like she had the authority to get free meals for her friends and fire a waitress who got in her way. Sometimes people's partners have a hard time with reality, like this Karen military wife who demanded salutes or this Lying brother who covered up the fact his wife was the breadwinner.
For whatever reason some people that walk this world like to make other people's life a waking nightmare. Take this snowplow driver; the snowplow driver would literally go out of his way to destroy a man's mailbox. So, dad did what any calculative and clever human being with a taste for executing a well warranted pro revenge would do; and dad proceeded to upgrade his mailbox to be a steel enforced monster of a thing. The rest is history and deserves its place in the hall of fame for revenges.
For another case of satisfying pro revenge check out the time a senior manager got an employee fired, so the employee turned the tables.
The world of dating can be a tough one. In this modern era we have all of these crazy dating apps available at our disposal, and those very apps can end up resulting in quite the ridiculous series of encounters with individuals that seemed sane enough on the surface level, but ended up showing up for the date, brandishing all the bright red flags. Hopefully these people's stories about their most embarrassing dates make you feel a bit better about your dates that erred on the side of disaster.
We live in a world where humans are free to make their own choices, and that means people can be as facepalmingly dumb as they want. It makes you rethink whether or not this whole civilized society thing is even a good idea to begin with. Just hearing the stupid things people say in full confidence is enough to want to live in a cave, but here we are. There's more and more classic facepalm moments of dumbness every day.
Let it be duly noted that engineers are dangerously sassy when they're bored. With that out of the way, this dude's account of dealing with a terribly belligerent customer is nothing short of glorious. Sometimes, the best course of action when confronted by a customer who seems bent on making your shift miserable is to counteract all of their toxic nonsense with pure brainpower. Check out another wonderful tale of malicious compliance with this man who followed contracted hours, and the destruction that ensued within management.
Many of us have wrestled with the profound conundrum that is trying to remember what our dang security questions are, for when it's time to login to various online services, like banks. For whatever reason this dude decided to make his security question very personal. And the answer that they provided was nothing short of gold. Can't imagine what kind of beautiful awkward silence must've been present during this call.
So many of us take for granted just how ridiculous some of the names of scientific things are. It's fun to take a moment and appreciate what kinds of wild thought processes went into naming various objects of observation. For some more gold from Tumblr check out this post about how trees are low key monsters. Just a tad bit unnerving.
We've all heard stories about stuff like poisonous blowfish, but when you really think about it, there's a surprising number of foods that can kill you. It's not just poisonous foods, but also strange and specific allergies, extremely dodgy and less than hygienically stuff, or just something you might just choke on. There's a wide world of dangerous food out there, and many of us have found ourselves on the wrong end of the spoon. People will also eat the worst things, simply out of politeness.
Holidays can be a tricky business. Oftentimes lavish foods are involved, and of course, the cakes. Oh boy, the cakes. Some folks just go for it and break out their best homemade recipes, while other people bank on their local bakeries/grocery stores pulling through with the clutch cakes. This is pretty much worst-case scenario that we have going on here. The intentions were pure from the very start, but the fails almost seem like they were inevitable.
Something being too cursed very well might be a thing. Yet, at the same time, it's the funniest thing. It's like part of our brains are hardwired to be helplessly captivated by uncomfortable images. Like, you want to look away but it's also very difficult to do that. Quite the situation.
If a scammer tries to get at your hard-earned money, you're justified in, nay obligated to, feed them a bunch of absurd lies and waste their afternoon with your goofdom. It's simply what's done. For some extra scammer drama, here are some influencers getting called out for their lobster scam as well as Scammy Tammy wasting a seller's time with her dumb scam.
Back in 2015, someone learned their lesson about drones, presumably. Champion Skiier Marcel Hirscher was on his second run of the day when a camera drone plummeted out of the air, just missing him. And it shatters well too, the only way a drone knows how.
Man, what a prime example of how it can really just benefit a company to do the right thing when they have the chance. For whatever reason this company felt compelled to not fork over the $600 that they should've for a broken TV. Well, that BS decision went on to cost them dearly.
Yep, a real life pirate. Dude definitely committed.
Just because you've made a career for yourself as an announcer in the Nascar world doesn't mean that you're not prone to fails like the rest of us. Marty Reid is the announcer in this scenario, and we're honoring his own hilarious little slip up with a video that shows him forgetting Andy Petree's name.
This viral video from TikTok user @carriejernigan1 has been making the rounds across the vast and disorienting online expanse that is the world of TikTok. It's no surprise. There's something innately captivating about ghost towns. Plus, plenty of people love to scare themselves a little bit. Not to say that this is scary, but it's definitely unsettling.
If there's one inevitable and unsettling takeaway that you'll likely have from this Tumblr post about various kinds of trees, it's that trees are very weird and we should all be slightly frightened by them. This post reminds us of the other Tumblr thread about the monster plant that is the Kudzu. Maybe one day, humans will peace out from earth, take our troubles elsewhere, and leave the arboreal overlords to roam and rule over the earth.
Anyone who has ever moved into a new place knows that the experience can be marked by a bit of stress over what your new neighbors are going to be like. It can be a bit of a gamble. Sometimes, you think you're moving into a place next to a perfectly reasonable human being, and then come to find out that they're nothing short of a waking nightmare. The folks that are featured in this collection of ridiculous posts on the infamous Nextdoorneighbor app seem like they could be quite the handful.
Sometimes you're having a conversation with a human being that you otherwise thought was perfectly rational, and not prone to fits of blind and entirely irrational rage, and then they pull a fast one on you. This particular customer opted for being a waking nightmare. Fortunately, the tech support employee who fielded the situation kept their cool, and it all worked out in the end.
There's just no way of knowing if you'll snap a perfectly timed photo, and that's the beauty of it. That rare moment of a terrified child falling off a bike, an overconfident basset hound slipping on some ice, or smiling guy on a pier about to get smacked with a seagull are all wonderful moments of rare chance. Perfectly timed and well angled photos remind us of the stupid luck that goes into rare moments.
This tale of pro revenge involving an inconsiderate county mower and a dad who wasn't going to put up with anyone's nonsense reminds us of another revenge involving a steel-enforced mailbox and a snowplow. The grin on dad's face must've spanned from cheek to cheek. Sounds like the county mower was ultimately unsuccessful with trying to get dad to cough up cash for those broken blades too. Talk about the icing on the cake.
