17 Parenting Fails That Were Totally the Kids Fault (Videos)

Having kids is a wild ride and one that is completely unpredictable. Just when you feel like you've got the hang of it as parents, the kids learn something new and, boom - you've got a new level of parental protection you have to set up. In all of these kid fails, the parents had to go to DEFCON one million to keep their kiddos from bashing their faces, falling off the furniture, crashing their bikes, or worse. 

These supermoms and dads definitely crushed it in the parenting success column while their kids were in the failure column! Here are twenty times when kids tested the limits of their parents (and, frankly, gravity), but the parents came up the winner in the end. Hopefully, these kiddos will remember these epic saves someday when their parents are old and in need of the same assistance :) (seriously, help them out - they made sure your face stayed pretty)

'I put an end to [it]': Guy solves neighbor's loud arguing with genius solution

Loud and inconsiderate neighbors can make existence miserable. Being unable to relax or get peace and quiet within the confines of your own home is grating and draining, really taking a toll on your mental health.

This homeowner had his peace disturbed when his "sweet" neighbor's psychotic girlfriend moved in. The silence they once enjoyed was shattered with constant screaming, yelling, and fighting. This continued to escalate until the arguments turned to loud, inappropriate accusations. Having finally had enough, the homeowner set about orchestrating their revenge.

'It says For Dogs': Entitled cyclists throw temper tantrum at park cafe after they drank dog water

These cyclists had no one to blame but themselves. They stopped by a garden café to fill their water bottles and rather than use the fountain intended for humans, they used the dog tap, which clearly had a sign saying that it was "for dogs." Well, considering that entitled folks never like to admit that they were the ones who were foolish, these guys decided to throw a fit at the very polite and very patient employee who worked at the café.

 

This thread was posted to Reddit's r/EntitledPeople subreddit by u/Grommulox, who bore witness to the whole fiasco. At the end of the day, it really just goes to show that people don't read signs and will go to great lengths to prove a silly point rather than admit that they were in the wrong.

'[I] found the most obnoxiously loud tie I could find': Boss sends employee home for not wearing the right tie, employee gets sweet revenge

The best part of this story is the image of the employee strutting into the office with a pink bow tie. He's just actively showing that his boss's ideas of professionalism are completely out of touch and a waste of everyone's time. And the cherry on top of it all is that his coworkers are now complimenting him for being the most fashionable one in the office. Talk about a blow to the boss's ego!

 

This thread was posted to Reddit's r/MaliciousCompliance subreddit, and it's just further proof that sometimes the best way to show your boss how ridiculous they're being is to actually follow the rules. Well, to follow the rules in a cheeky kind of way. Having to wear a tie in this day and age is already ridiculous enough, but having to go home numerous times because it's not appropriate or interesting enough is way too far.

'I placed [the check] behind a windshield wiper of the bin lorry': Scottish guy gets back at local parking enforcement by using their own tricks

Local parking enforcement agencies might be the root of all evil. Whether it's the local transport agency, council, or city government, as soon as that organization is responsible for parking, you can guarantee they will use bogus tickets, blatant hypocrisy, and outright bullying to ensure they can bleed as much money as possible from the population. 

But I should clarify that I'm biased here. If you've been reading these posts for a while, you might already be aware that I have a particular bone to pick with my local transport agency, who ticketed my car three times electronically after they mistakenly canceled my parking permit for parking in front of my own home. They had issued me $500 in fines before I even received the first letter and continued to ticket my car daily while refusing to accept any phone calls or other methods of attempted contact. Ultimately, I gave in to the bullying and extortion and paid the fraudulent fines so they'd stop ticketing me daily. 

That's why it's always cathartic to see a story like this from someone who actually managed to get one up on their local parking enforcement. This thread was shared on Reddit's r/MaliciousCompliance by Redditor u/Zenon_Czosnek, who shared how they managed to use the parking enforcement agencies' own tactics against them.

'Your employment [...] is being terminated for job abandonment': Employee resigns, then hears from HR 2 years later saying they were fired

Imagine quitting your job and moving to an entirely different city and then all of a sudden two years later, you hear back from your former employer. It's not a message to wish you well, and it's not even a question about a previous project from when you were employed there. No, of all things, it was a letter of termination on the grounds of "job abandonment." Come again?

 

The Redditor mentioned that their former boss was a bit disorganized, to put it lightly. That certainly explains a lot. How could he have messed this up? OP also revealed in a comment that they weren't a salaried employee and it's not like they were receiving pay after they quit, so there was simply no sign of this coming. Our main take on this is that HR is definitely up to something fishy here for their official records. The good news, and something OP should really remember, is that this bears literally no effect on their future employment.

Funniest Work Memes for Burnt Out Employees With a Permanent Case of the Mondays (April 4, 2023)

When you were hired and they said you had a competitive salary, what they really meant was that your salary was always going to be competing with your bills. With inflation up like this and eggs costing a much as a gallon of gas, how many of us have asked for a raise in the last 3 months? Employers always have some excuse like 'quarterly goals' or 'slow season' or something that feels a lot more arbitrary than your ability to pay rent. No offense to your boss, but that would explain your bad attitude lately. So keep up the grimace in your cubicle– maybe your moodiness will wear them down enough to eventually give you that raise you deserve. Or maybe they'll just plan another Friday afternoon pizza party to salvage morale. 

UPDATE AITA: Wedding guest wears wedding dress to a wedding, wonders if they're wrong.

Few rules in life are as stead-fast as "Never wear white to a wedding." You shouldn't wear any colors that might be mistaken for white either; creme, off-white, or eggshell, especially on a dress, will get you on the wrong side of the couple's family for eternity. Even if you manage to smooth things over with the couple themselves and maintain contact, you'll still be forever known as "that one friend who wore white."

Now, if you shouldn't wear white to a wedding, you certainly shouldn't wear a wedding dress to the wedding… unless you're a member of the couple being wed. Of course, if you do this, you might expect a furious mob to chase you off the premises like you're Frankenstein's monster. 

This guest managed to miss this memo somehow, but… are they really in the wrong? This one comes with an exciting twist that I dare not spoil. 

Redditor and wedding guest, u/DanWantsDeath, shared their story to Reddit's r/AmItheAsshole subreddit. Sharing how they managed to get themselves on the wrong side of the bride and groom when they showed up to the couple's wedding in a wedding dress. They appealed to Reddit's popular community to see if they were in the wrong for their actions and the resulting fallout.

Since their original post and judgment, they returned to post an update on the situation to their account.

Keep reading to see some screenshots of these threads, the reactions, and the judgments. For more AITA, check out this bridesmaid who wondered if they were in the wrong for walking out of the wedding when the bride demanded another bridesmaid take her glasses off.

'What about the wheelchair you're sitting in?': Tired old Karen requests wheelchair user's wheelchair so she can shop without having to stand

We all know that Karens can be audacious, to say the least, but have you ever come across a Karen who tried to take a wheelchair from someone who actually needs one? Well, that's exactly what happened at this antique store. 

 

This thread was posted to Reddit's r/EntitledPeople subreddit by u/ArtisticPain2355, a woman who rents a display space in said antique store and who also is a wheelchair user. Tired old Karen needed to take a break from walking in this rather large store and started inquiring about wheelchairs so she can continue shopping without having to stand. After the Redditor informed tiny old Karen that she can speak to a staff member but the store doesn't have wheelchairs on hand, tired old Karen had the actual nerve to ask if she could take the Redditor's very own wheelchair. You just can't make these things up! For more stories like this, here's one about a guy who fought his parking ticket and won!

'Buckle up, buckaroos!': Boss forces employee to clock out early to get paid less, tenacious employee busts out contract clearly stating he HAS to get paid for a full day regardless

Why is it that the people who do the most work never seem to get noticed? This is 1000% the definition of a toxic working environment, and yet there are still tons of managers and bosses out there who wholeheartedly follow that. As if your job is only to make them look good, and if you stop trying to make them look good then you're fired, but if you work harder to make them look good, then you can stay right there exactly where you are with no promotions or raises and definitely no acknowledgement of your hard work. The work force is changing these days and more and more places are putting their employees well-being first. But it's a slow change and unions are usually implemented to make sure greedy companies don't abuse their workers. 

So when a boss recently tried to pull a quick one on an union contracted-employee, you better believe he was not having it. As he posted to Reddit, he shared exactly what he said to his boss, even after the union had already explained it to him. Though the employee is known for being hard working and a good employee, one day he got in trouble for being on his phone. So his boss sent him home after only three hours of his shift. His boss tried to only pay him for those three hours, but the employee made sure he was going to get his money. His union contract clearly states that if he is sent home by the boss, then he still gets paid for the full day, regardless. 

The tenacious employee isn't standing down and other Redditors' are cheering him on—some even share their own stories of struggling with toxic employment. Check it out below! 

'You don't get a refund': Guy exploits returns loophole to get his money back

Some retail companies have stupid rules; there's just no way about it… this seems to be particularly common when it comes to returns. To a degree, this is fair; they've got your money, you've got your stuff—it's done, and any interaction they have with you once that transaction is complete will cost them money. 

If you've got an issue with your product, they'll have to take the time and resources to address that. But returning a product is worse; they have to take the time and resources again, except have the added disadvantage of losing a sale and needing to restock that item—which may no longer be in "brand new" condition. From their point of view, maybe you should have considered your purchase for a bit longer before making it. 

Still, the qualifiers companies come up with for returns can be baffling, making the requirements as complex as possible to discourage returners. "You can only return your item if you clap three times on the eve of the full moon while singing a ballad and shaking a tambourine."

This customer, u/dubilendar, got fed up with a store's extremely specific returns policy and decided to work a loophole in order to get their money for their return, sharing their experience to Reddit's r/MaliciousCompliance subreddit afterward.

'LOL, He Blocked Me' : Top Dating App Flops of the Week (April 4, 2023)

Reopening the Tinder app is a catalyst for reinstalling vivid memories of those failed dating app conversations you tried so hard to forget and stash away in a secret brain drawer. The floodgates open, and there is an immediate surge. You find yourself recalling what made you uninstall the app in the first place. The flashbacks are so strong, you don't stand a chance… you were blocked, you were scoffed at, you were unmatched, you met a bot (or two). But in today's day and age, we don't really have a choice in the matter. How else are we supposed to meet people?

What, like just approach someone in real life? Now I'm scoffing. As if. All our bravery is long gone, climbed out the window like a moody teenager who didn't get their way. Telling someone you like them face to face seems like something straight out of a fairytale. So we're gonna have to suffer in silence and swipe away until we reach that dreaded swipe limit.

Scroll down for some of the best dating app conversations of the week. For more, here you can check out last week's.

AITA: "Manspreading" plane passenger gets roasted by readers for in-flight behavior

I feel like this is one of those AITA posts where the user probably knows what the judgment will be before they even ask. Still, whether or not they were wrong was decided when they chose to use a term like "manspreading" in the title. After that, the conversation was only going to go in one direction.

I'm going to go ahead here and say that I don't agree with Reddit's decision. Yes, dear reader, that might surprise you, but I don't think this Original Poster was in the wrong... at least not solely. This statement will probably surprise you less when I go on to clarify that I, myself, am a tall man, and when I get stuck in the middle seat, there's nowhere for my legs to go but out. 

Let's get this cleared up, too: You don't always have control over what seat you get assigned; the fact that every Redditor seems to think otherwise is strange, with most of them using this as their primary argument. It leads you to think that these commenters have never had to make a last-minute flight when a loved one was sick or haven't ever been booked into last-minute travel for work. 

When I end up in the cursed middle seat, I'm either jamming my knees into the back of the person in front of me, which is annoying for the person in front of me and incredibly painful; or my knees (and thus legs) have to be spread outwards into "contested" territory. 

Yeah, it's not an ideal experience for anyone, and it may not be completely fair. But what's a tall person supposed to do? Cut their legs off the knees? 

Life isn't always going to be fair; if it were, they'd be issuing height evening stilts to make everyone the same height at every concert so that everyone has the same view, and every race would be moderated so that every contestant crossed the finish line at exactly the same time. 

I know this argument is sort of a red-herring fallacy, but the point still stands. To me, how the people reacted in this story is the most important ethical determination. The other passenger came way out of left field and went wild without first trying to communicate the effect his actions were having on her; certainly, if she had asked, he would have moved. If he still didn't move, then he would be in the wrong.

Anyways, those are my thoughts, what are yours?

'I'm more important than an employee': Entitled airline passenger demands first class seat she never paid for

This airline worker bought the very last first class ticket, and settled in for a plane ride to Texas, until an entitled passenger disturbed him. 

The best part of going to the airport is the relief you feel once you're through customs and security and you find your gate. You breathe the biggest sigh of relief that you made it to your flight on time. Then, in your spare time while you wait to board, you get to shop at the airport stores, which are similar to a mall. If I ran things, I would let people shop at the fancy-pants airport stores even if they weren't flying, because the experience is really 10/10. 

On to the more negative sides of flying: basically everything else. Your ears popping, having to sit in a cramped seat for hours, delays, turbulence, other passengers being loud and/or smelly… the list goes on. 

And this airline pilot unlocked a special type of airline irritation. An entitled woman kept badgering for a first class seat that he actually really needed for work purposes, and had paid for with his own money. Plus, even worse, this took place before there were great stores in airports (probably, this was the 1990s). Tragic!

Next, these bosses have us cracking up — they shared the very stupid reasons they had to fire an employee. 

‘AITA for turning up at my sister’s work?’: Woman learns about her long lost sister, surprises her at work, internet reacts

Here's a good rule of thumb in life: don't surprise your long-lost sibling at her place of work. In fact, maybe don't surprise her ever. It's just not a good look all around. Even if you're excited about having a sister and you can't seem to understand why she is, well, less than enthused about this insane family secret finally revealing itself. Don't do it. And while we're at it, don't post about what happened to Reddit unless you want the universe to roast you for what you truly are: a stalker. 

 

That's right, folks. This original poster clearly didn't do very much thinking about how this story would be perceived by the ruthless judges of the AITA community. Well, she found out in the worst way possible. Keep scrolling below for the full story and for the best comments. For more stories like this, check out this post about the top 5 Karens this week.

20+ Top DIY Fails for Lone Rangers Who Chose to Walk the Road Alone

The answer that reveals itself after asking, 'Why bother paying someone if you can do it yourself?', is 'Just don't'. Later on, you may regret it, but at the time, building your own coffee table out of literal coffee beans instead of buying one seems like a sensible idea. Perhaps you're feeling creative, maybe you just don't want to spend that extra money on getting something done correctly; potentially you just want to challenge yourself.

Then you fail miserably and wonder, 'what was I thinking?'. Below you will find plenty of examples that run rent-free in my head. You'd think, how are people failing so miserably when there are so many DIY tutorials running rampant on the internet? That is a good question, folk, one I do not, unfortunately, have the answer to. Scroll down for some of the most epic DIY fails from the r/DiWHY sub.

'Forgot cheese on cheese pizza, twice': 30+ Bosses share the super stupid reasons they had to fire someone

We hear a lot about bad bosses, so today, let's turn the tables and see why these bosses had to fire their employees for particularly outrageous behavior. 

Bosses of Reddit joined in to share the actually crazy reasons they had to let their employees go. In any workplace, there are going to be your share of Perpetually-Late-Patties and Fake-Call-Out-Freds. But these employees took it one step further. They didn't just toe the line, they jumped over it. 

I saved my favorite story for last — a story of a catering employee who was so incompetent at her job that she sounds like Amelia Bedelia. She was told to put some water bottles into a cooler of ice, and she instead opened every single bottle and poured it into the cooler. Her boss must have done a facepalm heard round the world! She took things way too literally, and she's not the only employee to be too literal in the workplace. Keep scrolling to check out this incredible thread.

‘The work I did wasn’t on him, it was on you’: Leadership tries to block employee from opportunities, he ends up with a more senior position than them

We love a triumphant ending in which ruthless managers at a company get exactly what they deserve. This thread was posted to Reddit's r/pettyrevenge subreddit by u/baka-tari, a new manager who was brought in to oversee a team that included Willie. Willie made a comment about the uncomfortable layout of the office that rubbed the other managers the wrong way. So, essentially, they attempted to blacklist Willie and find a way to keep him from getting other opportunities in other departments. The Redditor, however, noticed that WIllie was actually quite gifted at his job and didn't deserve any of this treatment. When Willie was able to get a job at another location within the company with the Redditor's recommendation, the other managers were shocked to learn that Willie had gotten an even better job than them. Good on Willie and good on the Redditor for their support!

'Watch the game somewhere else': March Madness watch party gets cut short when overly-passionate basketball fan goes feral and kicks out his buddy's girlfriend for supporting the wrong team

Everyone gets fired up over March Madness. In a world where sports outcomes can be fairly predictable, college basketball championships combine high pressure gameplay and decision-making skills, with the hotheaded nature of 20-year-old giants who are flooded with testosterone. What could possibly go wrong? 
Fortunately for fans, things go wrong ALL the time, so March Madness season is a time of year where underdogs have a chance, bets are high, and people are drunk enough that they'd be willing to jeopardize friendships for the sake of their team. Some fans are so feral that they lose sight of the rules of sportsmanship. One Redditor went completely feral and burned a bridge with a lifelong friend over the stupidest thing ever: a jersey.

u/Afraid_Honeydew_9163 was a huge NCAA basketball fan and he was thrilled that his college team finally made it to the final 16 during March Madness. He decided to throw a huge watch party with all of his alumni friends and encouraged them to invite more people over to enjoy the team's success (or to wallow in the sorrows of loss). Apparently everyone was welcome until one of his college buddies brought over his new girlfriend, who had gone to the school of the team that they were playing agains. Uh oh.

Naturally, being proud of the school she graduated from, she wore a jersey supporting the opposing team and the host of the party lost his marbles and almost immediately kicked them out of the house. Chaos ensued as the girlfriend and his buddy got booted out of the house. Insulted, they thought their friend was TA for kicking them out of the party, what do you think?

'Small win against toxic management': Employee pushed out by toxic manager, exposes that they have been doing manager's work for over a year

Here's a lesson to all managers out there: you don't want to make enemies with the person who has been essentially doing your job for you for over a year. That seems to be what happened in this scenario, which was posted to Reddit's r/MaliciousCompliance subreddit by u/landinthesky. 

 

There were many red flags in this toxic work environment. After all, it was a startup so the employee in question should have expected as much. That being said, you would think that a manager of data analysts would be able to, I don't know, read data. I'm certainly no expert in this field, but I'm just going to go out on a limb here and say that this is probably an important skill. Now, the employee clearly made enemies with another coworker at work, and while we can't really weigh in on those complaints since we aren't aware of the details, we can say regardless of that situation that exposing the toxic manager's pure incompetence is a pretty rewarding climax.

'I prepared an entrée, main course, and dessert': Retail employee serves customer 3 portions of petty revenge on a plate following customer's petty promise

Working in retail makes you develop a thick skin, as you have no choice but to deal with people who have obviously never heard the word 'no' in their entire lives, let alone been taught basic manners. Anyone who has worked in customer service of any kind will be sure to tell you that the number of times they've been told, 'I'll never shop here again!' would surmount the times it was actually true. In other words, people like to talk, but they don't put their money where their mouth is.

One customer woke up one morning and chose to be an awful human being, calling OP up and demanding that they send their 'express' order over, pronto. The customer said that he didn't 'care' that OP was short-staffed, and the fact that paying for express didn't mean that the store themselves had any responsibility over when the order would arrive didn't seem to phase him either.

The call ended more or less with some shouting; the customer said he would 'never shop at OP's store again'. OP laughed and hung up. Of course, this customer did indeed try to shop there again, but OP wasn't having it. He delivered petty revenge served in three separate portions, and all of them were absolutely delicious.

'Funniest wrong number text I've ever gotten': 25+ Failed text conversations that will make you facepalm

Texting is a must in these modern times — it's how basically everyone, from teens to the elderly, communicates with each other. That's probably why it's so funny when there are miscommunications over text. It happens a lot! And these fine folks posted their funniest texts online so that we can all share in the hilarity. 

One form of trolling that's pretty innocent and silly is people who get messages from wrong numbers and just run with it. They pretend to be the person the text was intended for. And since they're typing it all out, there are no consequences for them! Usually, they'll text for a while before giving up the gambit, and it's wholesome and funny at the same time.

'I've been waiting for someone to bring this up': Dude gets parking ticket for literally no valid reason, fights it in court and WINS

The determination of this guy is genuinely inspiring. Who hasn't gotten a parking ticket that seemed like a BS violation of a BS rule? But what do you do most of the time? You comply and pay it because it simply takes too much effort and work to fight something like that in, you know, literal court. However, this Redditor got a parking ticket for "violation number 27" and kept asking everyone at every step of the process what the heck violation number 27 is. And of course, no one had an answer.

 

So rather than comply, this guy decided to contest the ticket and thankfully, he was dealing with a judge who seemed to be waiting for this magical day to arrive. Keep scrolling below to learn how this guy pulled it off, what transpired with the verdict, and what violation number 27 actually was supposed to mean. For more stories like this, here's another tale of parking drama.

'I'm not leaving here without [the console]!': Entitled customer has a screaming fit over video game console, gets booted by security for freaking out

The hype around new gaming consoles can be so outrageous that people feel overly entitled to their new device. 

Whenever there's a new console release, there is a lot of hype. Gamers are psyched to try new games or play old ones on a brand new system. And let's face it, these consoles are not cheap whatsoever, with most of them costing hundreds of dollars. That was also the case with this cranky customer, who just wanted a new gaming console the second it was released. 

This customer clearly had no idea what he was doing, though. As u/Presspanda told r/TalesFromRetail, if you wanted to get your hands on this one device the day it came out, you had to plan ahead and preorder it. A man who didn't do that showed up to the OP's video game store on the day of the launch ready to buy a new console, and was very upset to hear why he couldn't, in fact, walk out with a brand new one that same day. 

Next up, these people shared the most mildly annoying things that happened to them this week. 

20+ Flailing felines and overly-curious kitties who got caught by their owners

Even though your cat wants to think they're a fierce and unstoppable predator, sometimes the little guys need to be rescued by their owners (like the fuzzy babies they really are). 

House cats certainly think they're apex predators — they're so good at catching their "prey," from odd socks to bottle caps. Maybe that's why it's so darn funny when they freak out over something totally ordinary, like getting momentarily caught in a hanger or vase. Other cats just do not want to wear clothing. Relatable! 

Up next, this guy brought in a lot of business for the company he worked at. But when their boss denied them a raise, this person was ready to defend themselves. 

'The trip was awful': Entitled choosing beggar refuses to pay her share of spring break trip, ruins whole vacation

We all know that one friend who always manages to "forget" their wallet. Or they seem to take too long to reach for their pocket when the bill comes. These are the folks who ignore Venmo requests and any subsequent reminders. In short, these are the folks you never want to go on vacation with, and if you happen to be stuck on a trip with them, it's best to set ground rules from the get-go.

 

Otherwise, you'll end up like this friend group. This thread was posted to Reddit's r/ChoosingBeggars subreddit by 
u/annoyingfriendon, a high school senior who managed to recognize this entitled choosing beggar's behavior well before the trip and spared herself from having to deal with all her shenanigans. Keep scrolling below to get the full play-by-play on the worst spring break trip since, well, Spring Breakers.

Relatable Coworker Memes for Broke Employees Who Laugh At Their Boss's Jokes In Hopes of a Promotion

Getting promoted equals getting paid more, and let's face it, at the end of the day, we're willing to do more boring tasks for a little more bank. If the negative zeros are smiling smugly at you from behind the screen when you check your account, it's likely you'll pay a little more attention to your boss's dumb, senseless jokes. The fact of the matter is, you could be a great worker, but a promotion comes down to who your boss likes the most.

So if some of us gotta suck up to our boss on the way to the top, that's what we're gonna do. Our coworkers may be giving us the stink eye, but we don't give that much of a hoot. After all, they're not the ones paying our bills; we only got ourselves in this world. Well, we also have memes, which is what we're all adjourned here for, today. So without further ado, scroll on down to check out the relatable coworker memes for yourself.

'They fired me, I ruined their company': Boss refuses to give hard-working employee a raise, so this worker took him to court

Today's lesson is: get everything in writing. 

U/Subtosocksfor1 had a great story to share with r/pettycompliance about the time they refused to back down from their boss's demands. The OP's story is especially infuriating because they claim to work for this company and generate a lot of the income.
