It's always fun to see someone break out the infamous, instantaneously recognizable "Happy Gilmore Swing." You've just gotta love the part when Rory nonchalantly crushes a ball right into the $10K launch monitor, and everyone else just carries on as usual.
TikToker @smacmccreanor has taken the internet by storm with her series of videos which depict her passionately dancing to various hydraulic press videos. The concept itself is simple (?) yet genius. Who knows what these videos will go on to inspire for our next internet trend. In the meanwhile enjoy the compilation of her videos that she went ahead and put together for this YouTube video.
Crashing your car because of your own poor decisions is one thing. Crashing your car into bees is a whole other thing. Getting on the news over your bee crash is on another level entirely. But having your story narrated by the most salt-of-the-earth men this Earth hath wrought is just a recipe for true greatness. Rarely does anyone live a sequence of the events that any self-respecting writer wishes they had thought to put in an Adam Sandler movie.
What a satisfying tale of petty revenge. We love nothing more than coming across a boss who is actually ready to back their employee. We read far too many stories about corrupt bosses and maniacal managers that never should've been put in their positions of power in the first place. But in this case, finally, we have a boss actually backing their employee. Let's make this the new trend, world.
We should all probably spend more time reading books about philosophy and history, and less time reading the Facebook ramblings of our most insane family members but hey, there's a time and a place for everything, right? So here's some fun library humor. For something bordering on educational, here are some history memes and a twitter thread on how the Appalachian mountains are older than most things.
Some of us dream about taking tests in our underwear. Some of us dream about being in a play and not knowing our lines. Most of us just dream about eating big heaps of cereal that looks like our mom using a spoon that looks like our dad. But this Tumblr user experienced a nighttime sequence so peculiar and mystifying that it had to be put into words. For some more tumblrness, here's the wholesome tumblr thread on a grandma who summons a demon and calls it Todd.
It doesn't take a bunch of tech support stories or tech support gore to realize that IT people are the backbone of our society. Heck, all it takes getting locked out of your machine on a busy workday to realize that the tech support people are titans among men. Or, more specifically, Atlas holding up the heavens on their backs.
This fun AskReddit thread has employees disclosing the most corrupt things that they've ever witnessed their bosses do. The reality is that there are far too many people that are employed and put in positions of power within companies, that really never should've been put in their positions in the first place. Maybe this AskReddit thread will serve to make you feel a bit better about the times that you had to put up with a wildly delusional, downright maniacal boss during your career. To keep the boss drama train rolling check out this recent post about an unreasonable boss who threatened a deli guy's job, so he basically just said "okay."
There are far too many slumlords and greedy landlords in this world that try to pull fast ones on completely well intentioned tenants. In this case though, the company that wasn't being let out of their five year lease managed to pull a swift and highly effective pro revenge on a slumlord who quite honestly needed to get their just deserts at one point or another. If this pro revenge tale got you going, check out another pro revenge tale about this Karen who got evicted, lied about her eviction, and then ultimately lost to the landlord in court who had to use the old lease on file.
Weddings undoubtedly have an uncanny knack for bringing out the very worst in people. It's a time that's absolutely ripe for reactions to get blown way out of proportion, and what naturally results are all kinds of dramatic blowups that really needn't ever happened in the first place. However, in this case, it sounds like the bridesmaid who was kicked out of the wedding by the bride after getting her very pricey haircut, had her understandable reasons. If you enjoyed this AITA drama, check out some more wedding drama with this bit about a groom's brother who called the fiancée a gold digger, and then proceeded to get kicked out of the wedding.
Perhaps a cringe-packed post like the one we have here will serve as all the motivation necessary for other people out there to mark their calendars with their partners' birthdays right now. To go ahead and run a background check on your partner because you can't remember their birthday is definitely a bold and inadvisable move, but hey, it's too late for this dude now. Hopefully the lesson was learned that day.
Nothing quite brings the blood to a boil like having to deal with a manager who is so lost in their own power trip that they can't be troubled to express a generally acceptable level of human empathy. It sounds like "By The Book Bob" was managing in such a style that it was only a matter of time before he got put in check with some sweet, malicious compliance. If this story got you going, keep feeding that malicious compliance fix with this post about a belligerent neighbor damaging a family's car, refusing to own up, and then having the whole thing backfire terribly.
Look, man. Love can be a terribly complicated thing to try to express. Some people were born with the ability to express that absolute all-consuming, lighting in a bottle feeling that is love, and others experience their struggles with it. The point is that if the love is really there, and it's real, it'll find its way out into the open eventually. Maybe a nice and wholesome thread like the one we have here from Twitter user @neurowonderfulwill serve to help the cause.
Power can certainly get to some people's heads more than others. It sounds like this new hotshot manager was inconsolably blinded by the newfound power that they found themselves in possession of due to their new position. Well, let's just say that after the employee they kept trying to fire had had enough, they got their rightful comeuppance. Would've loved to have seen the look on the hotshot manager's face when they realized they'd managed to get themselves demoted.
Well, they've finally done it. Robots have covered so much ground in just the past few years that they've made it to 2007. With parkour under their belts, it'll be no time until they master planking and develop diet coke and mentos technology.
Bad freeway signs that are so infuriatingly ambiguous that they never actually manage to successfully show busy drivers where they're supposed to exit or transition can make life a whole lot more difficult. So, this guy pulled off nothing short of a heroic stunt. Plus, the music itself makes the video that much more unforgettable.
To say that Tim Tebow's stint as a Tight End for the Jacksonville Jaguars was short-lived would actually be an understatement. The dude had one unforgettably awful showing. He put on a master class in how to not lay some blocks on people. Twitter was already having a passionate field day over his game against the Cleveland Browns. And now we have this fine update about Tebow's status in the NFL. Truly, what's next, folks?
TikToker @theycallmevero took the internet by storm when she decided to go ahead and reveal the step-by-step cooking process that goes into preparing Panda Express' infamous Orange Chicken. Not only does she do a great job at providing all of the necessary information, but she also shows off some pretty impressive cooking skills. Apparently she'd just started the job too. We're ready for the next recipe reveal.
Seriously, the Irish are absolutely not to be underestimated when it comes to just how creative and staggeringly ruthless they can get when it comes to drumming up rare insults directed toward people's fashion choices. But hey, maybe you're someone who enjoys setting yourself up for a proper roasting. It can be genuinely entertaining to see what kinds of insults people will come up with when they're put to the challenge.
Weddings are supposed to be about love and commitment, but man do they tend to bring out the worst in people. Here we've got the bride who doesn't want grandma coming just because she thinks it will be impossible to cut loose with her around, and absolutely everyone agreeing that maybe it's not that big a deal. Has she ever been to a wedding? For some more drama, here's a craigslist ad seeking a wedding date for a Karen aunt as well as a Karen bride who kept all the money from her cancelled wedding.
Its hard to describe pompous assy-ness, but you know it when you see it. The world is full of self-titled geniuses who spray the internet with their bragging. Whether it's telling dates that they're too smart for them, complaining about the terrible curse of their own knowledge, using words they learned four minutes ago, or not getting obvious jokes, it's always a harder time when the comments section gets bombarded with people bragging about their IQ.
One doesn't have to search long to find stupid proof that kids are almost a different species. It's honestly surprising that they don't get their heads stuck in more buckets than they already do. If anyone was thinking about having kids, just take a gander some of these moments of kids being stupid and weird to really drive home the facts of what it is you're in for.
There are plenty of kids out there that grow up, letting their rampant imaginations get the best of them. Suddenly, they're possessed by an all-consuming fear that they need to be on the panicked lookout for some monsters under the bed. What a terrible predicament. Well, Tumblr user bethanythemartian decided to offer up her own imaginative take on the tale, and it ends up invoking some of the feels. Check out some more recent gold from the world of Tumblr with this inspirational Tumblr thread about embracing the lazy life.
The thing about some of the world's most blatant liars is that they're not even close to having enough necessary sense to pull off their infuriating games of deception. It sounds like this particular Karen was destined for ultimate disaster from the very start. The reality is that Karen never should've tried in the first place. For some more Karen drama check out this story about a Karen customer ordering an extra sauced pizza, pitching a fit over it, and then basically just getting some pizza soup.
In a situation where you actually have control over who you're doing business with, and can afford to not deal with someone's petty BS, it's pretty awesome to just say "no." This twitter thread talks about the idea of boundaries in client relationships. Most notably, not being bullied by the jackass who payed you to do something you're great at and thinks they can micromanage everything you do before being displeased, like this lowballer who didn't want to pay, and the artist wasn't having it. Here are some more work horror stories.
Horrible farting. Shall I compare thee to a summer's day? Hot, fetid, and not as refreshing as Summer's Eve. Some people don't find farts funny. Those people lack humanity, and are sociopaths at best. Maybe it's because sociopaths have a poor sense of smell? People have notable gaseous productions, be they times they tricked a boss into thinking the fridge was out, silenced an argument or made a dog gag. For some more vileness, here's the story of a news cameraman who got food poisoning at an old folks home and ended up filming more than he bargained for as well as the musings of sewage tank trucks.
My dude, this is clearly not the way. This guy had the audacity to ask his girlfriend to pay him for a ride, just because she would've paid the Uber driver that she'd normally have called, anyways. Um, what happened to helping your partner out and not expecting anything in return? This relationship's showing an alarming sign of going nowhere fast. You can probably imagine what folks had to say about the whole thing in the comments section.
Anyone's nerves can quickly get the best of them. At a moment's notice your brain might decide to throw you into a completely disorienting panic where you find yourself uncontrollably shaking, sweating profusely, and blabbering like a newborn baby. The hope is that such a state doesn't come for someone when they're in the middle of an otherwise smooth job interview. But hey. Life's a game of ups and downs. Can't have one without the other. Can't have those momentary wins without the fails. Maybe these people's job interview fails will make you feel better about any of your own.
With a deepening dependency on technology can come an even more rampant usage of social media and other apps on our phones. All of this screen time can end up contributing toward quite the stressful emotional rollercoaster of just trying to make it in this life from a relatively peaceful and centered place. The value of slowing down amidst the chase for that next paycheck can't be expressed enough. Not only that, but it sounds like it's a collective biological inclination to not feel the need to grind all the time. A little laziness here and there should be encouraged, not condemned. For another entertaining read from Tumblr check out the time that an employee took a petty revenge on a raging Karen.
While TikTok has managed to do a pretty solid job at exposing some of the world's most disrespectful Karens for their belligerent antics, the app has also exacerbated the creation of completely illogical "informational" videos that absolutely reek of BS. This real life 747 pilot has had enough of all the misinformation from TikTokers. We're excited for his next video.
