Magician Performs Second Oldest Trick In Sleight Of Hand


Charlotte Magician Chris Hannibal really knows how to take his audience for a ride. As a viewer you very well might find yourself in the commonly shared boat of assuming that you know exactly what this guy's about, until he pulls the rug from right under your presumptuous brain. Seriously, impressive stuff. 

Green Bay QB Aaron Rodgers Rips Into Packers' Ownership


It appears that after some tough negotiating Aaron Rodgers is set to lead the Green Bay Packers into another season, yet again. He was able to get his contract reworked so that he has the flexibility to leave the team after this year. Even though the negotiation came to a pleasant enough end, it didn't stop Rodgers from giving the owners of the Green Bay Packers a piece of his mind. 

Woman Expects Free Nail Fix For Fourth Time, Gets Rejected, Has Tantrum


The world's just never going to run out of crazily entitled people that expect all the free handouts. To stage a temper tantrum in a place like a nail salon where people are literally taking time out of their days to go and relax is about as inconsiderate as it gets. Especially when you consider the context of this situation where it was going to be this woman's fourth free nail fix. Shoutout to TikToker @blowfish76 for capturing the rather nasty moment. 

Inventive Barista Is Living Definition Of Chaotic Good


Anyone who is able to spice up the workplace by not taking the job too seriously, while still getting the work done, and generally uplifting everyone's spirits is a welcomed addition to a team. It sounds like this barista is just the kind of person that you'll look forward to going to work with. At this point, I just want to read more of their names for other popular espresso drinks. For some more gold from Tumblr check out this Tumblr thread about an Ultima Online player who unleashed a nuclear revenge as a tavern owner on an unsuspecting town.

23 Of The Worst Dates People Went On


From running up the tab to being a belly button freak, people find themselves dating some people they wished they'd never met. When you get to the restaurant and realize the person looks like the Dr. Jekyll version of themselves from their profile pic, then they start rattling off statistics about war criminals without so much as a how-do-you-do, it might be one of those first dates where people said "screw this I'm out."

Wild Moments From The World's Laughably Entitled People


Everyone leads their own life, with their own desires, needs, and ideas as to how to get those things. Most of us try to build relationships, work hard in order to make valuable exchanges, or at least ask politely. But not entitled people and Karens of the world. They'll just try to bully people, dress them down, lie and make unreasonable demands. Or they'll try to leave a bad review, like this entitled customer who threatened a tattoo parlor with a nasty review but got beaten to it. And then there are moments of total cluelessness, like these obnoxious things American tourists did.

Manager Screws Employee Over, Gets Promotion Taken Away


Nothing can bring one's blood to a boil like realizing that you're working alongside someone who keeps themselves busy at work by meddling in the very affairs that are certainly not their affairs to meddle with, in the first place. It sounds like this employee had a particularly nosey manager on their hands who was definitely overreaching. Well, all that funny business certainly came back to bite them in the end. For another recent pro revenge tale check out the time that a greedy landlord raised the rent so that a tenant wouldn't renew their lease, and then how he ended up getting exactly what he deserved.

History Memes For People Who Can't Let Go Of The Past


It's important that we know history, so that when it repeats itself we can all stand there and go "told you so" as we're being led in shackles as the new manservant to the Godking of the New Empire of Delaware. So here are the history memes for the enlightened lords of time. Feed those hungry brains with semi-relevant knowledge through easy-to-read history memes.

Viscerally Cursed Foods That Don't Belong In a Gullet


There's something about cursed foods that are really hard to look at. Maybe the sloppiness of it all just feels violent. Maybe the thought of a Lego and mayonnaise sandwich sliding down our throats is too much to think about. Misplaced and cursed food is just uncomfortable. For some extra intrigue, here's a twitter thread about a guy opening a wildly corroded can of Chef Boyardee.

Entitled Customer Threatens Tattoo Parlor With Nasty Review, Tattoo Parlor Beats Them To It


Unfortunately, this world's not going to run out of wildly entitled customers anytime soon. To work in a customer service job is to basically put yourself on the frontlines of having to deal with delusional, cheap, psychotically inconsiderate individuals that expect their demands to be met no matter how obvious it is that they deserve complete rejection. Check out some more entitled people and total Karens who graced the world with their audacious behavior over here.

Greedy Landlord Raises Rent So Tenants Don't Renew Lease, Gets What He Deserves


The key to enjoying this immensely satisfying tale of pro revenge is to read it in an Australian accent (or your best crack at it). Once you've checked that box off, it's time to dive on into yet another tale of revenge where a landlord gets too big for his britches, and then it ends up completely blowing up in his face. It honestly sounds like things couldn't have gone worse for this guy. And it also sounds like he deserves it. For another dramatic revenge tale involving a shady landlord check out the time that a landlord tried to backtrack on returning a deposit, until karma came right back around to collect.

Inanimate Objects That Can't Help But Look Like Other Stuff


As highly impressionable people, we can't help but see the personality in inanimate objects. Whether it's a rock that looks like goblin, a stop sign that looks really surprised, or just a nonplussed lemon, there's no way we can't see faces in random things. And it's not just limited to faces. There are characters, logos, and whole flippin' dragons just hanging out as inanimate objects that look like other stuff.

Fiancé Reveals She's A Total Karen, Dude Breaks It Off


They say absence makes the heart grow fonder, but when they said that they didn't mean "absence of sympathy for fellow humans." When this guy found out he was engaged to the kind of person who was miserable to servers, he did what he had to do. For more intense Karen moments, here's a craigslist ad for a date with a Karen as well as an Influencer Karen who left a fake review for Stables and got decimated by the owner's response.

Glacier Wall Chases Dudes On Mountain Pass


It can't possibly be fun to be in a vehicle while tons of snow and ice try to push you off the road, but that's exactly the situation these guys found themselves on a highway in Northern India. It's a real "you shall not pass" moment from mother nature and a reminder that if the elements decide to do literally anything, you're not going to be able to stop it. This isn't even that big. It's just strangely personal.

NYC Subway Riders Surprise Conductors' With Wholesome Signs


Amidst our constant pursuit to chase down the world's most notable fails and other dramatic stories, we can easily forget that there's still a little bit of wholesome drifting around the atmosphere. It's always nice to throw it back to this video where a group of NYC subway riders took it upon themselves to throw a surprise for some hard working conductors. The conductors' reactions to the various signs say it all.

Paddle Boarder Gets Saved By His Waterproof Phone Pouch


Massive shout out to the coast guard operator for maintaining a truly heroic level of calm. This paddle boarder was understandably shook from the moment the call started. However, as these coast guard operators are trained to do, nothing short of an unwavering sense of calm was delivered from the other end of the line. 

TikTok Video Captures Complete Chaos Minutes After Starbucks Opened


Depending on where you are (or even in the more rural places), Starbucks just has an uncanny knack for attracting massive crowds, and its fair share of impatient customers. This video from TikToker @a_problem_like_maria does a terribly effective job at portraying just what kind of busy chaos can ensue a mere 10 minutes after Starbucks has opened. Let's just say that this video should be shown to any Starbucks customer who has been possessed by inconsiderate, downright rude impatience. That's a literal sea of tickets right there.

Resident Runs For HOA Board on Platform of "Doing The Bare Minimum," Wins


An HOA or Homeowner's Association can either be a minor inconvenience or it can be costly dictatorship, depending on who's on the board. People have to deal with nightmare HOAs where they get fined for having visible garbage bins.Some people defeated the Queen Karen of their own HOA. And others just looked forloopholes in the HOA's monthly fees. The bureaucracy never ends.

Tumblr Thread: Getting Birthday Cards With Hilariously Wrong Ages On Them


Some people really get into their whole birthday cards game. Of course, it can be even more fun to go against the grain and give people birthday cards that definitely aren't doing exactly what's expected of them. So, we have this humorous little thread where people give out birthday cards that have the hilariously wrong ages on them. It makes for an entertaining little trip. If you're looking for some more gold from Tumblr check out this funny Tumblr thread about an Ultima online player unleashing a nuclear revenge as a tavern owner

Obnoxious and Awkward Things Done By American Tourists


There's a stereotype about American tourists being obnoxious. It's easy to picture us waddling around, touching artifacts and complaining about "how run down this ancient castle looks." Lucky for us, sort of, a few other big and rich countries are also known for having horribly entitled tourists. Of course it's bad that there's more entitlement in the world, but it's at least better to not be the only ones that everyone completely disdains. But here are some really dumb and obnoxious things American tourists said and did. And here are some dumb complaints people had for their travel agency as well as some weird habits in the U.S.

Tweets and Tumblr Gems To Make The Day More Tolerable


For the most part we're all bored, boring people. And as turgid lumps of wasted space, we need some funny tweets and tumblr gems to quote later. That way we can trick other boring people into wanting to be near us for some amount of time. Were we always this repulsive and dull? Honestly it's hard to remember. But what is easy to remember are tumblr gems and funny tweets to cackle at.

Supervisor Says They'll Be Unreachable On Vacation, Fails To Give Employee Important Info


The thing about taking those much needed vacations and potentially even dipping your toes in the warm waters of some faraway paradise is that you're banking on your work life not eclipsing the dreamy sunsets of whatever destination you've chosen. By the sound of it this company was put in a bit of a tight spot because the supervisor could've done a more effective job at leaving all the important info that they needed to leave, with the company, before they dipped out.

Wild Things People Have Seen The World's Rich Folks Ask For


The road of acquiring more and more wealth can give way to all kinds of curveballs. There's something about having tons of money and then developing quite the strange array of personal tastes. Maybe it's because that bank account is gleaming with such a heavenly glow that a person with enough wealth just can't be bothered to play by the rest of the world's series of rules -- unspoken and spoken. Naturally, that results in some rather ridiculous scenarios. 

Truck Vandalizes Mailbox, Engineering Students Craft Superhero Mailbox


There are far too many examples of senseless, outright ruthless individuals going out of their way to unleash havoc on perfectly peaceful mailboxes. Seriously, it ain't easy being a mailbox in this world. Fortunately, there are also a decent number of ingenious individuals that are more than ready to use their engineering brainpower to craft invincible mailboxes. If you got a kick out of this pro revenge story, check out this pro revenge story where a dad crafted an invincible mailbox amidst a road rager's maddening antics.

Homeowner Gets Fed Up With HOA Complaints, Malicious Compliance Ensues


This isn't the first time that we've read about the HOA driving an otherwise completely peaceful homeowner just a little bit crazy. Unfortunately, the HOA seems to attract all kinds of Karens and petty tyrants that get caught up in wielding whatever "power" they have. So, it's nice enough to see someone successfully waste the HOA's time. I wonder just how much of that time that they'll be able to successfully end up wasting. For another tale of malicious compliance check out the time that a customer asked a restaurant to cut a burrito in half, and then how the restaurant maliciously complied.

Times People Were Reckless Animals In Cars


Seriously, it's a wonder that some people are able to get their licenses. The fact that we have to share a road with these kinds of wildly clueless folks is just a little bit unsettling. And seriously, what's with people just not using bungee cords to tie their stuff down? Nope, better to take the life-threatening route like the mind titans in this gallery. 

Spelling Fails That Made Words Harder Than They Had To Be


Maybe it's the state of public schools. Maybe it's parenting. Maybe no one cares. Maybe reading books is just lame. Either way, we see a whole lot of spelling fails out there that don't need to be out there. No one wants to be a stickler about this kind of thing, but when you see your third person of the day say talk about how they're taking things for granite and asking you to be more pacific, it wears you down. Here are some more regrettable and dumb spelling fails.

News Reporter Accidentally Swallows Bug On Live TV, Loses It


There's nothing like being out and about, taking a sweet inhale, and then realizing that you've unfortunately swallowed a big ole bug. At least this news reporter maintained a sense of humor about the whole situation. He was also clearly ready to go after the event presented itself.
