Customer Has Severe Food Allergies, Restaurant Fails To Be Accommodating, Customer Leaves 1-Star Review


The reality is that there are plenty of people in this world that unfortunately have to deal with very intense, potentially life-threatening food allergies. It ultimately falls on the restaurant to take those food allergies seriously, and at least try to cater to the information that they're provided in a timely manner. It sounds like this restaurant definitely failed to do so. Or, at the very least they could've thrown that order back out on the fly, and not had them wait all that extra time over some tomatoes. So, a 1-star review from the customer seems like a pretty reasonable development. Naturally, folks in the comments section were in agreement that the customer wasn't necessarily in the wrong for their decision to leave a scathing review. 

Tumblr Thread: The Yarn Community Is Filled With Fiery Drama


You probably wouldn't go ahead and draw the assumption that the yarn community is filled to the brim with fascinating controversies. For instance, the whole faking deaths theme runs prominent within the community. On top of that, there's even a bit about setting babies on fire. Um, like what? Hold up. For some more gold from the ever interesting world of Tumblr check out this Tumblr thread about a contortionist who went for a burrito mission to 7-Eleven and ended up traumatizing a cashier.

Creepiest Most Unexplainable Things That Happened To People


The world's brimming with unexplainable horrors.

Massive Loopholes People Managed To Exploit Successfully

Korean Bank Forces Guy To Employ Stupid Loophole, It Works


The rigidness of life's rules can make things harder than they have to be. And sometimes when life forces our hand, we must make stupid loopholes. It happens all the time, like this dad's basketball loophole or this grandpa's three dimensional mailbox loophole or this kid who made a mockery of a robotics competition with his dry ice loophole. We must pat ourselves on the back for every dumb loophole we employ, because man, stupid loopholes make us feel smart.

Impressive Works of Highly Questionable Taste


When the average person sees an exquisitely painted image of Red Skelton being accepted into clown heaven, the first thoughts one might have will likely be something along the lines of "Huh, I didn't know clowns had souls" or "why does that one bear such a striking resemblance to John Wayne Gacy?" But some of us, a very select few, might think "finally I have something to replace the cross above my bed." Hey man, everyone has their thing, and that's where we get skillful creations of absurd taste.

Woman Refuses To Attend Bridezilla's Wedding, Asks If She's In The Wrong


Oh man, wedding season really brings the lunatics right on out of the woodwork. People are dangerously vulnerable toward getting caught up in the emotionally heightened antics that go into a wedding. All of the meticulous preparation and just trying to have the perfect day can give way to an aggressive state of perfectionism. In this case, it sounds like the woman who didn't want to attend an obvious bridezilla's wedding was very much so in the right place. For some more wedding drama check out this post about wedding moments that told guests that the marriages weren't built to last.

Woman Finds Annotated Bukowski Book, It's Filled With Comedy Gold


Bukowski is one of those authors who's really appealing to college freshman who are hellbent on being miserable. He's got that Holden Caulfield streak, where if you're not in the right mood for the kind of stuff he's slinging you can't help but go "okay man, we get it, holy crap." Even a fan of Bukowski would admit that his view of relationships wasn't exactly what one would call "healthy." Granted the guy who wrote a book called "Notes of A Dirty Old Man" probably isn't out to appeal to young female readers anyway, it's always funny to see his writing reflected on by someone who has enough sense to try not being sad. Melissa Turkington quickly found out that she bought a used Bukowski book with just a hint of added flavor.

Wild Things Students Did To Make Themselves Legends


There are a few reasons students become legendary. Sometimes it was a prank or wild thing that that student did and got away with. Sometimes it was a moment of defiance against some stupid school rule. Some of these are memorable because they're straight up dumb, but you be the judge. No one heard from us that it's a good idea to hide 30 open jars of mayo in the vents before leaving for summer. For some extra shenanigans, here are some mad lads who made the world their big briny oyster.

Twitter Thread: The Messy History Of Using The Bathroom In Space


Mary Robinette Kowal gets into the nitty gritty of space defecation and how "there's no good way for women to pee in space" was never a completely satisfactory answer for a lack of women in space, at least from the engineering side of things. Turns out, the ideas we had for going to the bathroom in space in general were... lackluster. To rely on the old saying, why is it we could put a man on the moon but we couldn't come up with a half decent way to get people a bathroom in space without having to sit in it?

Cheating Student Thinks They Have Professor Fooled, Learn Otherwise


Honestly, these students got off lightly. Things could've ended up much, much worse than they did for them. This definitely isn't the first time that we've come across a revenge that took place within the realm of education. There's just something about people not wanting to do their tests/essays/etc that results in acts of truly glorious revenge. 

Bride's Friend Wants To Use Her Wedding For Photos, Bride Refuses


The thing about calling out the people in this world that have gotten lost in the thick haze of their own blinding entitlement is that they can get very defensive when their antics are called out. It sounds like this bride's friend did anything but take kindly to being called out. She actually had the audacity to call the lovely bride a bridezilla. Totally uncalled for. Absolutely not accurate. It's definitely more of a friendzilla situation on our hands here. 

Low Budget Fixes And Feats Of Domestic Engineering


We are people with problems. And problems require solutions. But we don't always have a lot of money, so those problems require us to devise intriguing and sometimes inadvisable DIY solutions.

For more inspiration, here are some low budget car mods and questionable fixes.

Strange and Stupid Junk People Posted For Sale Online


With the power to post weird things for sale online comes absolutely zero responsibility for the quality of that garbage people try to sell online.

You hope they're all jokes, but some definitely have too much going on not to be legit.

Customer Doesn't Realize Files Must Be Double Clicked To Be Opened


Oh boy, just when we thought we might've encountered the very worst (or best) of the world's tech support horror stories, this bad boy comes along.

It's no wonder that this tech support employee's jaw hit the floor.

Customer "Wants One From The Back," It's The Same One


We've all fallen for this or pulled it off at least some time in our lives.

People That Made Ridiculous Risky Decisions

Ridiculous and Intriguing Facts To Forget About Almost Instantly

Bad Life Pro Tips That Likely Won't Help

Tech Support Employee Catches Helpdesk Scammer

But that didn't stop this mom from consulting the moral judges of Reddit's AITA community for advice on how to deal with the bathroom situation. Folks seem to be in agreement that she wasn't in the wrong for her thought process. 

Karen Furious For Not Being Seated At Closing Time, Entire Community Rallies Against Her


It's a pretty funny moment when someone can't put together the two-piece puzzle that's right in front of their eyes. It takes some serious mental contortion skills to have the thought of "why can't I go in at closing time, it couldn't possibly be me who is the problem" but hey, here we are. People care about their favorite local restaurants, and they calls 'em as they sees 'em. Here are some more wild moments of entitlement and a stable owner who decimated an influencer.

Sometimes the signs are there and a "screw this I'm out" moment is in order, as evidenced by these people who quit their jobs wit style.
