Ex-Kindergarten teacher Jessica Gentry's powerful post about quitting her job after 12 years of hard work went viral for a good reason. There's a great message in the post. Sounds like the kids haven't changed, it's the damn parents. At least that's the point she hammers down on off the bat. Check the rest of her message below.

Good old Tumblr doing what it does best, when it takes thing to especially strange places. Maybe humans are nothing more than space orcs.

The only advice we can imagine giving here is to run for the hills, my dude. Sounds like things aren't going to work out. And can you blame the poor, impressively patient, bedbug bitten boyfriend? He's in the middle of quite the uncomfortable (physically and emotionally) situation.

"Tough biker" cries like a little girl. He definitely wasn't ready to throw hands when the moment arrived. As for the old man...did you see that flying kick? Dang.

Married couples of Reddit are sharing the advice they'd give to engaged couples. You might want to consider giving this a read if you're looking to tie the knot off with anyone in the near future. A little advice from people who are doing the damn thing might keep you out of a world of trouble on down the road.

These honest board game boxes actually get at what board games like Monopoly actually lead us to do -- in that case, family fight night. These should really be the official subtitles of the games.

We're pretty sure this is a special case, cause if you tried it with most kids they'd probably just not even listen to you, then freak out more and cry harder. Anyway, this dad figured out an amusing way to psych his kid into not wanting to cry.

This vegan restaurant owner is their own worst enemy when it comes to trying to bring in new business. You're out here snapping at customers who are complaining about being uncomfortable trying to eat, while your kid is running around the establishment naked. Maybe not the best look for your restaurant -- in terms of having the kid run around, and the way you're going about handling the review.

Texting is still something that older parents didn't grow up with, so naturally they're gonna make some mistakes. Also, they're parents, so what they choose to say isn't gonna be exactly what you wanted to hear either. Sometimes parents go savage but mostly they're just overbearing and bad with technology.

Reddit's "Indian People Facebook" subreddit churns up some serious social media gold. You've got to admire the bullish bravado and fearlessness of these dudes when it comes to spitting their "game" on social media. Zero shame and zero game. Or maybe their game is just next level and we can't even fathom what they're doing.

If you think you're having a bad day, there's still a pretty good chance you didn't lose a speed boat on the freeway. Misfortune gets the best of people all the time. Seeing it happen can put things in perspective, it can be somewhat therapeutic, or it can be simply intriguing to see all the things that can go wrong.

Alright, yeah that's pretty badass. Nothing like jumping over a highly televised, world renowned sporting event. People need to jump over more events. Thank goodness he made it. Who knows how many people would hate this guy if he just flopped onto the course into oodles of bicyclists.

Andrew Duncan, a journalist with a Twitter bio about how he loved finding women wearing clothes that let him see parts of their shoulders, legs, and cleavage, really got people on Twitter going when he also said this undermines their claim at equality. Andrew, you've got to be kidding me, my dude. Welcome to 2019. Where have you been?
And we just ran another post on some solid sexist ignorance with the guy who shared his 6 tips for how a woman can keep a man. That one didn't go too well either. When are these fools going to learn.

This family physician's using his Twitter account to share some of his thoughts about a day on the job dealing with mindless patients. The jokes definitely bring with them a "dad joke" kind of vibe. But we enjoyed them.

This coldhearted Chicago Cubs fan's earned himself the nickname of "Mai Tai Guy" after footage of him stealing a home run ball from kids in the stands surfaced. I mean, he didn't rip the ball out of their hands or anything, but he definitely could've been more sensitive to those hopeful kids around him that just wanted a chance at taking home a home run ball.

Companies and institutions around us like to impose inconvenient rules for dumb reasons. Companies will make you wear uncomfortable hats. Colleges will make you comply with unfair printing fees. It's a minor, but meaningful success when you can get revenge within the rules and beat them at their own game.

Twitter users have banded together to share the dumbest of their ideas when it comes to improving the world. The results are actually pretty impressive. Like some of this stuff would really benefit the world.

Please judge all of these books by their covers, it's more fun that way. While we're not exactly sure what's in some of these, we can be pretty sure the Furby Trainer's Guide or Understanding Horse Psychology are things that we don't exactly see as page-turners. For more funny books, here are some weird and specific how-to books.

For some people the path to solving a seemingly simple math problem can be all kinds of complicated. It's funny how difficult we make it for ourselves to crunch them numbers, but sometimes that's the only way.

These would have been classic fails if not for a healthy amount of luck. It's uncommon that two wrongs can make a right, but if you manage to fail a fail the right way, you can turn that baby into a win. It's like a win but with some extra suspense. Here's to the fails that landed on their feet.

Well, in case you really loved the gender swap filter that hit the internet a while ago, you can use Face App to get a peek into the future. Some celebrities on twitter did the thing, and other people on twitter shared their fears that all of our faces are just going into some database that's designed to steal our privacy.

Sometimes your expectations just lose to the reality of the situation. Is it us getting swept up in our own hopes and dreams, blinded by an optimistic outlook, or are we victims of lies being told? You be the judge.
