10 Biggest Power-Up Fails In Video Games

Micromanager Plays Himself, Gets Fired When He Insists on Receiving Reports That He Doesn't Read

This micromanager certainly reaped what he sowed when he insisted on receiving reports from his subordinates that he wasn't actually reading. There's nothing like insisting that your employees do excessive work just for the sake of your ego. 

Maybe if he had actually focused on results instead of asserting his power he would have had something more to go off of. 

This guy sounds like the middle manager who tried to increase his bonus by putting more workload onto a smaller and smaller team.

Employee Stands Up For Herself and Quits on the Spot, Finally Has Had Enough of Her Bosses Harassment

Sometimes enough is enough and you simply cannot take anymore. It sounds like this is exactly what happened with this guy's niece with her job at the accounting firm.

These sorts of workplaces have a reputation for being "old boy's clubs" so it's no surprise that they continue to harbor relics of a past age who continue to live their lives as if they're in the pages of a "Mad Men" script. It's honestly disappointing how prevalent these types of attitudes are. 

This niece absolutely should not have put up with her boss's behavior. Perhaps, there were more constructive ways to go about handling the situation. A juicy lawsuit was just hanging there waiting to be nabbed up.

Absolute Units That Are Large And In Charge

What can we say about absolute units that they don't already say for themselves? These sultans of size offer us a vision into the world of giants. These units are so gargantuan, so portly, so shredded that it's a miracle their mass doesn't affect the tides. While we putter around in our tiny little lives, theseabsolute units remain too large for this earth.

Daughter-In-Law Refuses to Spend Christmas With MIL's Foster Children Because "They Are Not Real Family", Gets Banned For Life

Just imagine... The absolute insanity and entitlement that could possibly lead someone to think like this. u/newhere1237 has a real problem on her hands with this one. I tend to agree with some of the comments, in that, the worst part of it all could be that she is trying to isolate her husband from her family. I mean, she is clearly trying to do that already. 

The u/newhere1237 is not the wedge here... That has been the daughter-in-law from the very start.

In-laws are never easy... Just take this sister-in-law who "lost" a $2k camera at the beach.

Lord Of The Rings Memes That Shall Definitely Pass

Is it a crutch to still have such strong feelings for a string of films that came out starting 20 years ago? No. It's not. Lord of The Rings memes are almost as perfect as the material they are based on. How dare you even suggest that they aren't completely relevant and terrific? For more stuff for unrepentant dorks, here are Dungeons and Dragons memes for those of us on a roll.

Entitled People And Their Wonderfully Audacious Demands

It's hard to get inside the mind of the kind of person who thinks it's reasonable to request a live-in babysitter for little to no pay. It doesn't strike as intuitive, the kind of thinking that results in an an unjustifiably angry customer leaving a poor review because a breakfast place isn't open at 6 pm. It's little things like these that make us forever mystified by the machinations of entitled people and their fantastically bold moves.

Things That Aren't Exactly Cults But Certainly Feel Like Them

It's totally fine to like things. It's great to be involved with a community. There are big communities of people who like things. But when that community's number one goal is to fawn over what a single pop star had for dinner that day, or insist that they had no direction in life before they bought their exercise bike? That's enteringcult status. And like this Tumblr thread says, the cults are coming.

Deadbeat Husband Steals Wife's Prized Jewellery Set, Gives it Away as a Wedding Present

This guy really needs to get it together. If that's even an option for him at this point. Gotta feel for him with his disability but if he has been out of work since 2013 and hasn't made any attempts to get something going for himself then what more can you really do?

It's one thing to need support. It's another thing to be a deadbeat. But when you cross that line and start taking serious advantage of your partner and resort to stealing their stuff... you are beyond hope.

Time for her to get going and make moves. 

Ridiculous Dads Doing Their Thing With the Most Hilarious of Results

Your eyes will roll and your mom will lol. These dad-tacular dads are killing it with the comedy. 

It's pretty ridiculous the stuff that these guys can come up with. I guess a nondescript amount of time raising kids will drive you to some insane lengths in order to find some semblance of joy. 

Regardless, this clever collection will give you some laughs for certain.

Terrible In-Laws Kick Their Daughter Out and Attempt to Ruin Her Life, Her Legendary Sister-In-Law Destroys Them

Sometimes your true family isn't blood-related. We can't count the number of stories we have seen where the connection between "family" members ended with their blood. Sometimes you have to choose your family and sometimes, if you're lucky, your family will choose you. 

This trans-daughter is incredibly fortunate to have her brother and sister-in-law in her life. Her parents though sound like absolutely terrible human beings. 

The Stupidest Airline Bording Call Is a Self-Inflicted Tongue-Twister

The ol' 2222 to Toulouse. Would it be better if a human being were saying it? Or would it be even more confusing? Hopefully someone knew  what they were doing when they scheduled that flight. Otherwise it just sounds like a glitch.

Woman Gives Roommate The Fright of Her Life With Horrifying Clown Decoration

This is the stuff that nightmares are made of. I mean, just take a LOOK at that... thing. If that popped out of my closet in the middle of the night I would never be sleeping with the lights off again. 

This has to be on of the most legendary pranks of all time especially since it caused her roommate to move out of the house. That's some real stuff right there.

Vandals Get Justice Served When They Meet an Indestructible Mailbox

What happens when a very stoppable force meets an immovable object? Well, you end up with a broken baseball bat and a couple of angry idiots who have met their match with an indestructible hunk of metal. 

This is exactly the kind of thing that needs to happen when a couple of idiots are going around causing wanton destruction. Some men might just want to watch the world burn but we can put them in their place with things like ultra-reinforced mailboxes.

The best part is the additional stories in the comments. It's crazy how many people have had to resort to something like this.

Tumblr Thread: Dog Figures Out How to Herd Lawn Roomba

Give a sheepdog something to herd and by god it will herd that thing. In this case it was a little lawn care robot. That is a smart dog. Under the right circumstances, pets find ways to do creepily intelligent things. And there's something about roombas that make them seem more than just a mindless robot. For example, here Tumblr explores human nature with the concept of a "knife roomba."

Spiteful Brother Schedules His 'Shotgun' Wedding On the Same Date As His Sister's Wedding

Man, this family sucks. Hard core. Sounds like a really toxic group to be a part of.

Suddenly, her entitled brother just gets to come in and schedule his date over the top of it.

History Memes For The Ages

More and more history is being made every day, so naturally people are gonna make history memes about it.

Guy Gives the Hard Truth to His Hypocritical Fiancé When He Teaches Her About Mutual Tolerance

Man, people are tough. You know?

It's crazy how you can love someone so deeply despite being confronted with their glaringly obvious flaws. In some funny way, those things can actually make you more attracted to them and love them even more. 

Sometimes those things are a huge red flag and a huge turnoff and they might not come up until years into a relationship. Only emerging when some particularly unique situation coaxes it out of the depths of their personality. 

It's one of the crazy things about any sort of relationship. It's easy to fool yourself into the false security of the fact that everyone else thinks and views the world as you do. It's almost like the default setting our brain goes into when dealing with other people. In reality, it couldn't be further from the truth. 

Unreasonable Parents Demand Son Cancel His Wedding, Leave His Fiancé, And Drop Out Of School

We come across our fair share of 'entitled parent' content, and we wish we could say that there is a limit to how much entitled parent content the internet can take. Unfortunately for us, the limit does not exist. It seems that every dark corner of the interwebs is filled with ridiculous stories about parents forcing their own ideals upon their children, and not allowing them to flourish and develop into their own selves. Take this scenario for example, OP went against his parents wishes in life and his upcoming wedding to a woman they do not approve of is the final straw. Upon arriving to a friendly dinner that was originally planned to be a pleasant meal accompanied by a discussion on the wedding budget, OP's parents do a 180 and suggest cancelling the wedding altogether. It only gets worse, check out the below thread for all the juicy details.

Inanimate Objects that Look Like Other Stuff

Why do we get joy out of seeing things in other things? Is it because we want to imagine we're surrounded by friendly objects? Is it because it's like a fun visual puzzle? Maybe it's because we're just wired to see faces? It's very apparent in these inanimate objects with a whole lot of personality.

Lady Claims To Know Apartment Owner, Gets Swiftly Outed

Car Salesman Quits on the Spot When the Owner's Son Tells Him "Do You Know My Last Name"

People are just absolutely determined to hang onto any glimpse of power, aren't they?

This kid thinks that, through no merit or achievement of his own, he is better than his father's employees. Just because he happened to be born into the small-town dealership "royalty". 

He'll be in for a wake-up call if he ever has to go out into the world on his own and make things work for himself. Let's be honest though, that's not very likely to happen. 

Guy is a total a-hole but not as bad as this daycare owner who threatened her employee.

Clever Professor Tricks Cheating Students Into Thinking They’ve Gotten Away With Plagiarism, Then Destroys Their Hopes and Dreams

This teacher must be teaching a class in petty pro-revenge. Everything about the way that he approaches this situation just screams of a wounded ego. At no point in this story does it sound like he is trying to do the right thing, he is out to right the wrongs that he perceives have been done against him. 

That's what makes this whole scenario a little bit petty. He should have just reported it to the department and let the consequences of their actions take their course. But his approach certainly does have more style.
