Stranded Cyclist Begins To Cry and Cameraman Just Watches


It was the world championship road race in Yorkshire. German Dario Gomez Becerra from Colombia had a catastrophic bike failure that left him on the side of the road. He expected to get picked up and...didn't. And the camera guy just followed him while the announcers talked about how sad it as. It's kinda hard to watch. You just want to give the guy a hug and say it's gonna be okay.

People That Roasted Themselves To Ruin Someone Else


People that willingly insulted themselves to roast someone else.

These people decided that it was more important to ruin someone else online, than to preserve their own livelihood. Sometimes the damage one might inflict upon themselves is worth it for the pure savagery of a masterful roast. We already love the rare insults and roasts, but to see someone ruin themselves to roast another person is a whole another level of entertainment.

Things that exist only to piss people off.

Here are some minor things that seemingly have no upside, and feel like they exist just to make someone angry. Like, who's reading the entire story about someone's vacation in Italy?

Classic Stupid News Headlines to Start the Day Off Dumb


Funny news headline fails.

We're not established journalists, but we think most of us could do a better job than these facepalm inducing headlines. It's too bad so much journalism is online now and can just be edited later. We miss stuff like these magazine layout fails. Sometimes news dumbness is on the reader's side, like these people who didn't understand satire.

Racist Canadian Boss Harasses Puerto Rican Employees, Gets Deported


Racist boss from Canada harasses employees, and ends up getting deported.

This racist and blatantly ignorant boss is as dumb and toxic as they come. She consistently berated her hard working staff, and threw around verbal jabs about them being "illegals" while they were in fact from Puerto Rico, which is a U.S. States territory. As it turns out, Jan was the illegal alien of the whole bunch. Apparently she's from Canada and her green card expired. So, she ends up getting deported when it's all said and done. If anything, we feel bad for Canada having to welcome Jan back.

Entitled Morons Who Expected The World to Cover Their Expenses


Choosing beggars and entitled people who wanted other people to pay for their stuff.

If it's just two pennies, then why not pay it instead of taking it from the tip jar? The world is full of people who are high on their own sense of moronic entitlement. There's horribly entitled bosses, awful customers, rude low-ballers and nincompoops who want to be paid to take free stuff. At least it's cathartic to know that everyone else has to deal with this stuff.

Deceptive and Terrible Products and Services Designed By Jerks


Manipulative and terrible products.

The world is rife with manipulative and awful products and ads, and it's worth it to point them out when they're clearly unfair. There's wildly misleading labels, sandwiches made to look like they're twice as big as they actually are, and apps that make you pay money to delete them, just to name a few. It makes you start to think this stuff could be designed by the devil.

Psychological Tumblr Thread Explains Why Some Spaces Just Feel Odd


Tumblr thread on liminal spaces and why some places just feel strange.

Your brain looks for context cues, and some places and times just don't have enough of them for you to know how to act. Kinda makes sense. Some other explanations would be that you don't hang out at bowling alleys a lot, have social anxiety or just dislike creepy-ass abandoned buildings. That said, the concept of liminal spaces are interesting. Tumblr can be a rabbit hole, full of fun history and imaginative threads on aliens being fought off by bears.

From there, the company calls him out, fires him, and then digs a deeper hole (for themselves) by blowing the whole thing further out of proportion.

Employee Gets Fired On Medical Leave, Puts Store On Permanent Leave


An employee gets terminated by company while on medical leave, so they put the company on permanent leave.

This employee got terminated by their crappy company while on medical leave. So they revenge'd so hard that the store itself ended up going on permanent leave. As far as revenge cases go, we'd say a job very well done indeed. A solid learning lesson from this story would be that you can be crooked or you can be a jerk, but never be both!
