Vegan Wants Wedding Guest's Vegan Meal, Gets Rejected, Pitches Fit


As far as stories about vegans stirring up some unnecessary drama goes, this one right here very well might take the cake. What we have is one wedding guest who is pretty much just minding their own business, only to later on be bothered by another belligerent vegan who naively assumes that they'll just be able to have another person's vegan meal. Well, that's not really how the world works. What is it with weddings bringing out the very worst in people? 

Car Zoops Directly Into Sinkhole


Thanks to recent monsoon rains in Mumbai, the conditions were perfect for a sinkhole to open up riiiiight under some unfortunate person's car. True to its name, that sinkhole did what it does best. It's a little unnerving to imagine that at any time the ground could just open up and swallow whatever it wants, but what choice do we have? Should we not touch the ground? It's the ground.

Pit Bull Relentlessly Annoys Gopher


Clearly, this gopher was just trying to get his work done for the day. Unfortunately (or fortunately for us), the pit bull had other plans in mind. I just love how calmly he continues to pester that gopher. The fact that things don't seem to escalate into any kind of dangerous situation is nice too. Just a couple pals muddling through a simple miscommunication problem. 

TikToker Wakes Up In "Empty World", Claims To Be In Alternate Reality


While it'd be wildly easy to fake this whole situation, it's kind of a fun idea to entertain. Honestly, this video reminds us of that recent post about the dude who very well might've wandered into an artificial, government fabricated town. Like, if you ever find yourself in that situation, do you just proceed to have as much fun as possible with it, or what? I feel like that's the move. Shout out to TikToker @kilianandmaruta for this video though. 

Tumblr Thread: Don't Mess With Fully Orbed Owls


You can learn something new every day from the wonderful, ever wandering minds of the Tumblr world. In this case, we have a quick yet educational breakdown on why you definitely don't want to mess around with owls. If it seems like an owl has assumed an aggressive demeanor, and is pretty much squaring up against you...that's because it probably is. Honestly, picturing this particular owl swimming around a lake with those big eyes is already kind of terrifying. For some more gold from Tumblr check out this Tumblr post about how random knowledge can end up being super clutch. 

Rude Customer Won't Move Car, Karmic Justice Ensues


This isn't the first time that we've seen some beef break out in a parking lot over someone's inability to be a reasonable human being, and simply move their car out of the way. We're sure that it won't be the last time we see it either. In this case though, the customer clearly messed with the wrong dude. Just picturing the look of panicked wonder that must've flashed across this dude's face when he saw the ramifications of what he'd done. Oh boy. For another petty revenge-inspired parking lot drama check out this post about a parking lot bully who sniped a driver's parking space, and then the petty revenge that ensued. 

Perspective-Twisting Images of Doubletakery


Is that a toxic sludge spill or just a swan with its head in a pipe? Is that a yacht or a clothes iron? Is that a pyramid or an umbrella? Double take moments like these are a constant source of eye confusion and they'll never let up. There'll always be someone out there with their arm in just the right place to make it look like a butt. That's just the nature of skewed perspective.

Personality Traits That People Can't Stand


Is "likeability" a totally inherent trait or is it a cluster of behaviors? Probably a little of both. Basically anyone who acts selfishly, lies a lot or stirs up unnecessary drama is going to be a hard person to be around. At the same time, some behaviors feel rude but really aren't. For a shortcut into people's values, one good test is always the shopping cart theory of morality.

History Memes That Are At Least Historically Funny


History memes aren't for everyone. Maybe all the plebeians with their Slim Jims and reality television will have their minds sated by relatable content, but not the brooding, dour historian. No, the historians among us will only draw pleasure from history memes for the historically inclined. Yes, the only thing that can light up the brain of an enlightened one is history memes for the splendiferously learned. That and maybe some fancier, beefier Slimothy Jameses.

Old Lady Complains About Young Neighbors, Young Neighbor Claps Back


Anyone who has ever had some elderly neighbors knows that it can end up being an environment that's unfortunately ripe for dealing with all kinds of petty complaints. That goes without saying that not every old person is going to make a whole fuss out of having young neighbors. Just some of them. And oh boy, does this old lady sound like she was having a particularly moody day. Well, all that moodiness resulted in her getting called out pretty harshly. Maybe too harsh, or perhaps justified? You be the judge. 

Tumblr Thread: The Ageless Matriarch That is Mamaw


Some family members take on mythical status, be it from their longevity or antics. In some cases it's both. But really if someone is around for long enough they usually have a wealth of interesting qualities to reflect on. For example, this huge list of all the animals one tumblr user's grandpa brought home or this grandpa who hate banana bread he hated for years out of love.

Entitled Customer Demands Salt-Free Burger, Gets What He Asked For


Some customers love to take their bad attitudes due to whatever's going on in their lives, and then just stink up an otherwise peaceful establishment with all that negative energy. It sounds like this dude was nothing but trouble from the moment he walked in. Naturally, when he gets exactly what he wanted after pitching a nice rude temper tantrum, he gets even angrier. For another malicious compliance story, check out this rude customer who got his rightful comeuppance at an auto-salvage yard. 

Giveaways That People Are Rich Pricks


The world's in no short supply of rich, entitled, and painfully snobby individuals. Seriously, take a walk around the block and it's only a matter of time before you bump shoulders with someone who is living in a completely different reality from the rest of a rational and respectful society. Of course, there are plenty of people out there that have made their boatloads of money and didn't completely lose their moral compasses along the way. But that's not what this list is about. Nope, this list is about the dead giveaways that someone's a rich prick. 

Man Tells The Story Of Worst Hotel Stay Of All Time


Man oh man, you've really got to feel it for anyone who is responsible for cleaning out those hotel rooms. People can tend to be absolute messy animals when it comes to what they'll do to a hotel room. This guy's stay at a hotel couldn't have been any more disastrous. We would've loved to have seen the look on his face when he realized what kind of destruction had been created by those dang seagulls. Like, absolute chaos. Most people would probably try to abandon the scene of the crime before any graver repercussions presented themselves. 

Misfortune Monday: It Goes On


Life is like a crayon box, and each color represents one of the many flavors of chaos. It's hard to predict what the next thing will be. Maybe you'll get a call that your home is flooded. Maybe you'll wake up to find that a steamroller has parked on your car. Maybe you'll just drop a cake. We learn to tolerate the misfortunes of life because we just kind of have to. So there's that.

James Randi Debunks "Magnetic People"


It's honestly remarkable that the guy was able to fool the amount of people that he did. Literally all he was doing was sweating profusely on his chest and leaning back a bit. Apparently that's all it took to take people for a spin.

Guy Plays "Gangsta's Paradise" On A Budget


Apparently, there were a fair number of spicy folks in the comments section suggesting that this dude didn't pull the song off on a budget. I mean, come on. You don't know if the car was actually his. You don't know if anything that we're seeing him use at all is in fact his.

Unreasonable Store Owner Won't Update Phone Number, Dude Fights Back


Remember that even in hopeless situations with unreasonable people, it's important to take stock of the things you actually can control. This guy kept getting dozens of wrong number calls, and he found that he actually had more power than he thought. It's like this time a learning center refused to change their number on their website and inspired a pro revenge. Some wrong numbers can be blessings in disguise, like this time a smooth Scotsman turned a wrong number into a job interview.

Humorously Absurd Times People and Things Got Singled Out


It's not fun to be singled out, but sometimes the universe or our own actions make it something that's impossible to avoid. Sometimes a coworker just gets on everyone's nerves and something public must be done. Other times life just decides that your deck should be destroyed by an endangered species. There are absurd times people and things can't avoid being singled out.

Son With Heroic Willpower Outsmarts Parents' Sticker System


When trained the mind can be a beautiful instrument. Even without the training it's as if some of us are born with a bit more willpower than others. Sometimes that willpower can end up showing itself at a very young age. Especially during those toddler years that are already susceptible to all kinds of tomfoolery. There's something about kids during those years where they just can't be bothered to give a dang. This kid certainly showed off some impressive willpower. They're clearly going places. 

Funny, Immature, And Downright Shameless Tinder Wins And Fails


This modern era has played host to a wealth of equally ridiculous dating apps. There's something about dating apps that just effortlessly manages to inspire people to act a fool. Maybe it's because so much of the time people never actually planning on meeting one another in real life. So, the pickup lines are unleashed with a truly reckless abandon. Perhaps you'll end up sticking some of these in your back pocket for the next time that you want to take a conversation down a weird rabbit hole. Check out some more wild moments from the world of Tinder over here.

The Cruelest Pranks People Have Witnessed


Not only do practical jokes require planning and commitment, but they also require a sense of moral decorum. Filling someone's car with bees might be a challenging and impressive surprise, but it could also be seen as cruel. Of the sinister pranks people pull off, there seems to be a pretty clear line between the shenanigans of a mad lad and the sheer brutal workings of a sociopath. So choose the right prank.

Twitter Thread: People Show Their Age With Things Young People Wouldn't Get


Sooner or later, everyone becomes a relic of a bygone era. There's a moment we all have when some new way to play a movie comes out, and we remember the now-obsolete technology when it was new. It happened with VHS tapes and it will somehow happen with all-digital content. It's sort of exciting and sort of scary, but to make ourselves feel safer at the end of the day we can always indulge in powerful images of sensory nostalgia.

People Share Their Reality Dating Show Insider Knowledge


It shouldn't come as surprise that so called "reality" television is scripted and often fortified with liquor and actors to drum up the drama. And people involved have to sign so many NDAs that it can be difficult to get the scoop. A peak behind the production veil can result in disenchantment or sobering confirmation depending on your opinion of the genre. But hey, that's the true nature of what reality and game show tapings are like.

Tumblr User Fires Off Passionate Rant About Avengers Being Villains


We're much more accustomed to seeing the wonderful and wandering minds of the Tumblr world go off on inspired tangents about how exceptionally heroic the Avengers are. This is certainly a new stance. Naturally, if any movie possesses even the small of plot holes, you can count on someone from Tumblr hyper-analyzing that lack of logic to complete oblivion. For some more Marvel-themed content from the world of Tumblr check out this Tumblr thread about how Tony Stark is actually the most intimidating avenger. 

Tasty-Looking Temptations That Look Like Food But Aren't


We scoff when dogs and babies try to eat dice and drink anti-freeze, but the thing is, it's not like they're too far off. There are tons of inedible objects that look like tasty food out there. There are rocks that look like cake, mops that look like soup and entire cliffsides that look like delectable steak dinners. May our consciences guide us away from this tempting stuff that looks like food but isn't.

AskReddit Thread: Reasons People Quit Their Jobs On The Spot


Unfortunately, far too many of us end up missing the red flags at jobs that can end up costing us all kinds of precious energy further on down the road.

Maybe you'll be able to take their own lessons with you so that you don't find yourself in the same boat as them. 

Guy Lies On CV, Tech Support Fail Ensues


Our hearts really go out to anyone who has to work a customer service gig in the technology industry. You end up encountering all kinds of hopelessly clueless individuals when you work tech support.

Most Bizarre Things People Faked For Attention
