Sometimes it really feels like the universe puts someone in front of us at the perfect time to help out in our time of need. This woman was being followed home off the train by what sounds like a pack of vicious and immoral scoundrels. Fortunately, there was a kind stranger with a warm smile around who stepped up to help her out in her time of need. And it sounds like a meaningful friendship blossomed from there.

Well, that was an unexpected turn of events. The very person being arrested for stealing a car, ends up stealing a cop car too.

This is what people want to see, right? Just a guy pushing more than plates? The ripped has become the ripper. Either way that sound leaves very little to the imagination. Looks like he'll need new pants sooner than he thinks.

Twitter user @Sp00kynugget decided to relax in a bath after a long day. Now, this is no ordinary bath of relaxation. She threw what looks like hundreds, if not thousands, of hot Cheetos into said bath. Naturally, people had questions and also were outraged on Twitter.

This choosing beggar decided to offer up his "cool vibes' in exchange for a free place to live. That is an interesting way to go about negotiations. The comments section was definitely lit up over the guy's seemingly profound level of unawareness and entitlement.

Get a load of the audacity on this office food thief! This woman was muddling through the sleep-deprived existence of raising a new baby, while working a job, and as it turns out, dealing with the antics of an office food thief. Eventually, the office food thief's blind greed boiled over to such a point that they were opening new packages of food and leaving the wrappers around. The woman had enough, and took her revenge with the help of a nanny cam. Smooth move.

Get out the walk man, fiddle with the cords to plug in the SNES and call up the neighbor kids, cause these returned us to a time in our lives that we completely took for granted. To continue chasing the dragon of your own youth, here are some funny nostalgic 90s life hacks. For the more decrepit among us, here's 70s and 80s nostalgia.

Healthcare professionals see a lot. For whatever reason people try to trick doctors, nurses and technicians, whether it's an adult trying to scam the system, someone trying to score a prescription, a kid taking a lie too far or some general WTF-ness. Here are more times healthcare professionals saw right through lying patients.

This one's an oldie but a goldie. Whether or not this is an actual series of conversations between a mischievous daughter and her exasperated mother, doesn't matter. The texts are hilarious, and maybe even believable. Using autocorrect to troll a technologically challenged parent would be quite the crafty, and entertaining move.

This person was told that they should be aware of their work schedule even when they receive a schedule change with absolutely no notice, so they took their incompetent manager's advice to heart. While this seems like a lot of effort just to get under the skin of your annoying employer, it seems like it totally worked and it's kind of awesome. Here's a time when an employee got back at their horrible manager by giving them a uniquely confusing schedule.

This Tumblr thread employs an American Gothic style of writing to highlight stereotypes --- imagined and potentially accurate --- for different places in American. The resulting descriptions are vivid and unsettling and might just chill you to the bone. It's almost like the whole place is cursed.

You never know exactly what you're gonna get on a first date. It could be nice, or it could be like pulling teeth. Understandably, people have a whole lot of stories of bad first dates they've been on, and it sure is intriguing to learn about exactly everything that can go wrong when getting to know someone.

So the reason you think you look like a pile of dog crap in the same shirt as Hugh Jackman is cause all celebrity clothes are tailored specifically to fit them. Bunch of bastards. I guess the answer is to either get your clothes tailored like actors and models or to stop trying to look like you belong in a magazine. Or just give up on the whole thing, fashion is stupid anyway.

Sometimes people give other people compliments that end up sounding like they could be a cleverly disguised insult. Like you're not really sure whether what that person said to you was from the bottom of their heart. Maybe they were just trying to pull a fast one on you with a roast that just sounded kind of nice. Who knows.

We love a good old-fashioned petty revenge. People can get very passionate about securing their parking lot spaces. It can really turn into a battlefield out there. In this case, the lady that overstepped and almost put the other couple in harm's way, ended up getting her just deserts. Beautiful touch with the cart in the parking space.

Photographers are sharing the weirdest photo shoot requests that they've received from Instagram influencers. Never underestimate the lengths that an influencer will go to ensure that their photo is ridiculous, unique, and well suited for viral status. Can't imagine being the one holding the camera in some of these situations.

If it didn't seem obvious before why kids need to be taught not to screw around with animals, this thread goes into a lot of detail as to why nobody wins when a kid angers a pet. A dog can't exactly say "quit poking me in the eye" without seeing a bit threatening. For some lighter stuff, here are professional dogs who take their work seriously as well as sleeping dogs in silly positions.

This is one of those big TIFUs that sounds like it could be out of a movie. The fiancé in this scenario was blindsided by quite the revelation regarding his parents, thanks to a 23andMe kit. Hopefully they're able to work through the post-revelation with some grace. That's got to be a whole lot to digest.

Believing that the elite college your daddy got you into makes you better than the people are around you is some rude BS. If you are the type of person who likes to namedrop their college, other people are laughing at you behind your back. This Tumblr user has a graceful strategy to keep jackasses from casually mentioning their fancy schooling. For some college themed entitlement, here's a college slacker who demanded a classmate's notes and got denied. And here's just some fun gems from Tumblr.

Jack had enough of this customer's rude behavior. So, he enacted a calculated and very satisfying petty revenge. The best part of this petty revenge is the moment that the customer goes to another store, and realizes their card isn't going to work there either. They underestimated Jack's capacity for pettiness, and definitely paid the price for that.

A good old-fashioned crop dust. Yes, she subjected the rest of her fellow cave tourists to the smells of whatever her body was working through. She also activated the group's resident "Karen." From there, the downfall was swift. Karen ultimately asked the poor tour guide to get up to date on their knowledge of sulfur deposits in the cave. If only Karen knew. Those silent farts can pack the most powerful punch, indeed.

Never know when you might wake up and just not have it in you to tackle the day. Maybe you're emotionally spent, and in dire need of a day to regenerate health across all fronts. Maybe that one sick day is the world of difference you need to get back on the work grind with necessary energy. If that sounds like it could be the case for you, or even might be in the future, these bits of "fake sick advice" could come in handy.

People try to do things all the time. Sometimes you're trying to make a point. Sometime's you're trying to shame people online. Sometimes you're trying to escape being captured by Romans. With every attempt, there will be some that hit the ground with the sound of failure. Some will take off running, but others will stumble into a pile of fail.

This guy is given multiple opportunities to share the book, and after being shut down for a legitimate reason decides to get super rude about it. All thing aside, this sounds like a really bad strategy to get access to a textbook. Some students don't get it, like when this rude entitled student exploded when denied a classmate's project. The world has its unfair share of entitled people who need to abandon their nonsense.

People are sharing the habits that their spouses have that slowly and steadily drive them insane. For some, reading through this might awaken memories you have of your spouse and how they managed (or still do) to drive you crazy by doing (or not doing) things like leaving lights on at night, or the door unlocked, or a container of cream out after making a cup of coffee.
