If you find yourself either bored or boring it would behoove you to indulge in some funny tweets and tumblr gems to quote later. Those quirkmongers of the internet are out to make brilliantly stupid observations whether you like it or not. Even just a small pocketful of shiny tumblr gems is enough to turn today's snooze fest into a snooze vest, which is more fashionable, breezier and therefore more exciting.
Man, just when we thought we'd seen the worst of the worst, when it comes to scumbag managers, we end up happening upon this mess. You've got a couple managers that thought they'd be able to get away with stealing. Well, this employee certainly taught them a humbling, harsh lesson. And talk about a raise that was well deserved!
Some neighbors are more unbearable than others. Some neighbors come with ungodly amounts of entitlement coursing through their veins, while others are actually genuinely nice to have around your vicinity. It sounds like this particular drama broke out over one homeowner not wanting to hook up a neighbor with free internet. Apparently that decision inspired their friend to call them out for being rude.
It's not like anyone wants to give you bad advice. Well, maybe these hilariously bad and dumb life pro tips might be exactly that. This incredibly dumb financial advice also falls into the category of "straight up don't do this." That said, times change and some previously ubiquitous good ideas find themselves no longer belonging, whether it be due to evolving technology, changing social ideas, or the rapid decline and corruption of various institutions.
Honestly, this manager sounds like he's all kinds of shady. It's moments like the one we hear about in this tech support tale that further demonstrate the value of hard working and aware tech support employees. "Joe" was trying to pull off what very well could've been a criminal action. Fortunately though, he came up short and got humiliated in the process.
If there's anything to learn from all the regrettable and dumb spelling fails we see on a daily basis, it's that absolutely no one is immune to really stupid mistakes when it comes to their mastery of the English language. Non-native speakers and people who have been speaking English their whole lives all succumb to the fun and frustration of the English language, and at this rate it looks like there's no way to stop it.
Twitter user @PrismaticWastes decided to enlighten the world about how asymmetrical shopping mall maps actually translate beautifully for megadungeon maps. When you think about it, it makes sense. Malls are pretty much designed to make shoppers stay as long as humanly possible. Apparently college campus and zoo maps are also viable options.
Work is a necessary evil. Doing stuff basically sucks, but it's better than being hungry, wet and cold all the time, so the choice is pretty obvious. Naturally, most of us try to get through the day employing as little effort as possible, and sadly for some of us it really shows. "Not my job" moments of failure fill up our streets and living spaces, providing at least some ironic consolation that everyone, not just you, is doing the bare minimum. These moments of dubious professionalism are far from our best work, and it shows.
Many of us have gotten caught up in a bad day, and sometimes that bad day can result in someone momentarily refusing to act like an adult. Temper tantrums can break out at a moment's notice. If you find yourself having to deal with someone acting like a child for the silliest of reasons, you very well might be inspired to take a petty revenge like this person did at the ATM line.
One of the best parts about watching a movie is being able to temporarily step outside whatever's going on in your own life, to get lost in the lives of the characters that you see on the screen. So, if you end up watching a movie that's plagued by numerous or just one gaping plot hole, it can be quite the frustrating, disorienting experience. Some plot holes are just too nonsensical to overlook. Maybe these people's observations about plot holes they can't get over to this day will resonate with you.
This is one lucky baby. Some dads in this world are funnier than others. It sounds like this dad has a phenomenal sense of humor and is ready to embrace the lifetime journey that is fatherhood. You could say his dadness is off the charts. If this Tumblr thread got you going check out this collection of dad jokes that are perfect for everyone's inner father figure.
The world is a merciless place filled with chaos and misfortune of all stripes. It's almost not even worth it thinking about what could go wrong, just because so much can go wrong. Worried your dog will escape your fence? Well he's already chewed up your shoes. Afraid your car will get towed in that iffy spot? Well it's been crushed by a tree. It's clear that in life, things just keep happening and we only have a little bit of control over the menagerie of misfortune that might befall us.
So long as you have a decent enough grasp on your moral compass you probably walk through life doing what you can to not upset the people you cross paths with. Sometimes, that can manifest in rather harrowing acts of eating just the kinds of food that make you genuinely sick to your stomach. Maybe these people's accounts of their own experiences eating various foods they found to be utterly terrible, will strike a chord with you.
There's nothing quite as puzzling as the bold confidence of a glaringly evident fool. It can be quite entertaining and disheartening at the same time to watch someone go off on whatever tangent they feel compelled to go on, all the while with no idea that they have no idea what they're talking about. Maybe these insights will take you on a trip down memory lane to an experience of your own.
The problem with communicating over the internet is that there's a whole lot of room for misinterpretation. Plus, there's a whole lot of access to dumb people. Those two factors mean that there's a whole lot of people who miss jokes by light-years. Does it feel good to get a joke someone else didn't get? Yeah. Is it also disappointing to see someone aggressively not get the joke? Also yeah.
You just never know if you're going to end up in the crossfires of a terribly entitled parent. This mom sounds like she was a whole handful. Honestly though, it seems like her horrific performance at the restaurant was for the best for everyone else involved. Besides the poor employees that had to put up with her toxic behavior, of course.
Oh mom, her heart was in the right place. Little did she somehow not know that the act of washing a computer would result in the technology being completely ruined. Just imagine being the poor tech support employee caught up on the other end of this absurd debacle. For some more tech support drama check out this customer who tried to get a tech support employee fired, and then ended up being showed up in the process.
In our world of diversifying diets, we find ourselves in awkward situations over people's dietary restrictions, or even just points they're trying to make. Basically the exact opposite of this situation happened when an uncle at a vegan wedding couldn't handle it and demanded a meat meal. The enduring fact seems to be that if you're a guest and getting a free meal, you're going to find your options limited.
Man oh man, anyone who has ever muddled through the perpetual grind that can be working a customer service job knows that the gig comes with its infuriating fair share of troubles from inconsiderate customers. Some are certainly worse than others though. This particular customer sounds like he was quite the handful with his big wad of artificial cash. Fortunately, the malicious compliance that ensued was able to put him in check.
Man, oh, man, our hearts go out to any hard working employees that have to deal with these levels of hostile entitlement. The choosing beggars of the world have a way of tossing their social decency out the window when their irrational demands are inevitably rejected. This Karen was in way over her head from the start.
No matter how confident you are, it's always a good idea to get a second eyes on a project. "Hey, what's with this stairway to nowhere" they might say. Or "did you realize that when your van door slides open it condenses Butter Salesman into Butt Man." There are more stupid design failures out there than you could shake a stick at, and even that stick might have some fatal flaws. These design failures deserve some blame.
Man, you really never know if you're going to end up moving into a new home that's seemingly perfect on the surface level, only to realize that you're living next to an entitled, waking nightmare of a human being. This guy's neighbor sounds like he stubbornly refused to get a clue. No matter how many infuriating wakeup calls he was given. Not really sure what the best course of action could be from here. Some people refuse to take the hints that are so graciously provided them.
Oh boy, buckle up for a little trouble in lover's paradise. Marriage basically inevitably comes with its series of hurdles. Some of those might seem more insurmountable than others at times. With that being said, this husband really went and stirred up the pot when he decided to eat his kid's special candy. Queue his wife having a bit of a meltdown over the matter. You be the judge though, was dad in the wrong for his decision to insensitively cave into his sweet tooth?
Is there a better feeling than catching your supervisor in a lie? Yes, when it's in writing. And even better than that, when you can leverage that knowledge to make them give you a more accurate performance review. Interesting things happen when there's a strict chain of command, like this military wife Karen who demanded salutes and ended up getting mocked.
Sure, doing your job the right way is fine and all, but you save some much time and energy by doing things completely improperly. Sure, these become "not my job" moments of failure, but think of all the time and effort saved when you install a gutter system in a way that conveniences no one. These "not my job" moments of dubious professionalism are making it easier for some of us.
Anyone who has ever lived on a ground floor apartment knows that the idea of keeping one's window open to all that might be passing by is a bit of a risky endeavor. You just never know who is out there walking around, and what kind of fit of insanity that they might be caught up in. This couple certainly went on to have the shocking wakeup of a lifetime. We're just glad that everything worked out, and nobody was hurt in the process.
Oh, the unparalleled panic of losing your kid at the store. It's common knowledge that kids are weird and dumb, and as it stands they shouldn't be trusted. Look away for a second and they're off trying to drink toilet water or join a new family. Sure, we eventually grow to resent the illogical things our parents do, but for a real long time it's you being the idiot.
The world's never been in short demand of wildly irrational choosing beggars and their infuriatingly endless series of demands. Sometimes, the choosing beggars are so dang deluded that it actually ends up being pretty entertaining. Like in the conversation we have here with this fine fella. The choosing beggar is relentless in their pursuit toward haggling, but ultimately they're served up the reality check that they needed all along. Get some more choosing beggar drama with this absurd lying stranger who wouldn't pay for a rug, and thought they won.
Food allergies are no joke. With that being said, if a restaurant fails to make good on an order from a customer who specifically asks for certain problem ingredients to be left out, it could be viewed as fair for them to send the order back. As long as the sending of the order back is being handled in a fair, respectful matter it shouldn't be too big of a problem at all. So, this customer asked for a new burger, the restaurant refused, and then the customer decided to only leave enough money for their drink. Some folks in the comments section are in agreement that that was a reasonable move to make.
They say what you don't know can't hurt you. The "they" in that phrase seems not to have ever heard about dangerous heavy equipment, poisonous trees, and looming monkey attacks. These creepy signs make their message clear about what's coming for whom, and that's probably a good thing. Even though these terrifying signs speak the language of fear, they're still trying to tell us something, and that's better than nothing.
