Freezing snow shoveler gets ice-cold revenge on audacious neighbor: 'I must have poured about ten gallons of water on his car'

This snow shoveler knows they were being petty towards their neighbor , and they do not care one bit. In some parts of the world, snow days are still quite common. Some storms can dump buckets of the white stuff, leaving people to dig out their cars while their kids build snow forts. Shoveling a driveway or digging your car out can take ages. You have to scrape the snow from the windshield, dig out the tires, scrape the ice from the door handles, and after all that's done, you still need to dig…

‘If that ain’t country, tell me what is’: Why “going country” has become a common pivot for pop stars

Every pop star seems to be “going country” these days, from Beyoncé’s “Cowboy Carter” to Post Malone’s “F-1 Trillion” to Lana Del Rey’s upcoming “Lasso.” Once upon a time, big-name country singer-songwriters transitioned into the pop space to achieve further commercial success: Dolly Parton, Shania Twain, and Taylor Swift—to name a few. However, in 2024, it seems that the opposite trend is becoming mainstream, with pop stars of increasing numbers dipping their toes in the bayou of country balla…

'Really bad. Hope this helps!': Unhappy employee horrified when they send accidental email to boss

When basically every employee is unhappy each day and actively searching for new work, it can feel like misery is in the air at all times.

'So what's for lunch?': Coworker won't stop mooching off of employee's lunch, refusing to eat anything else

This bizarre coworker needs to get her act together. She seems to be relying way too much on this Redditor for her lunch plans, but it goes beyond the classic mooching. When the Redditor brings their own packed lunch, the coworker refuses to eat anything at all. But when the Redditor wants to go out to grab lunch, the coworker immediately latches on and tags along no matter what. She has completely rejected the concept of bringing her own food or going out on her own during lunch hour. Furtherm…

Work potluck turns petty when mooching coworker refuses to contribute: 'I got in trouble the next day... it was worth it though'

Work potlucks are a love-hate relationship if ever there was one. On one hand, there's nothing better than sneaking a second helping of your coworker's famous taco dip during your lunch break. On the other, the existential dread of figuring out what to bring (or worse, cooking the night before) is unmatched. It's like you're back in grade school, and you have to face the wrath of your mom when you tell her about a school bake sale the night before. Except this time, you side with your mom.

Neighboring business owners start parking feud forcing boss to create permanent solution: 'It's out of our control now'

Sometimes, you're better off leaving well enough alone, and when someone offers you an olive branch over a petty disagreement that you're completely in the wrong on anyway, you're definitely better off just taking it and letting sleeping dogs lie. Yet, the thing with entitlement is you're probably not likely or able to do so, taking everything to its absolute limit in your attempt to get the world to finally realize that your wishes are more important than the reality of the situation. And it's…

No, you can't return an item to the store if you didn't bring the item with you. Even if you promise to bring it back later, because you just forgot it as you were running out the door, you can't have a refund. Still, some customers will try to argue that they should be allowed to do so! It makes sense in their mind, so they think that it should be permitted. This isn't even the dumbest question that the retail workers of the world have fielded from their customers! Even after taking a company…

This manager is going to have a hard time the day she comes back from her extended vacation. Well, that's what you get for making enemies out of nearly everyone who is working for you. Not long after joining the restaurant, this new hire implemented unfair scheduling policies that mostly benefitted her above all else.

'They want her to [pay] $2,500.00': Neighbor fires back at HOA for forcing her to pay for landscaping area outside her property, HOA pays up

What is the purpose of homeowner's associations if not to stir up unnecessary trouble? We have seen countless stories where HOAs enforce ridiculous rules and regulations just for the sake of flexing their muscles, yet we have rarely seen a group of neighbors band together in support of one of their own, who successfully got rid of a ridiculous new policy. In this scenario, the HOA in question randomly decided to require that several members of the neighborhood replenish their decks and landscap…

29-year-old refuses to give up first-class seat to pregnant woman on 10-hour flight: 'Her discomfort wasn't my responsibility'

Generosity only goes so far when you're asked to give up your first-class seat on a 10+ hour flight. If you are the type of person who would willingly downgrade your experience despite what you paid for, then you are a greater person than most people are. We are inclined to side with the Redditor in this situation. She had splurged on this flight experience because she had been overworked and exhausted. It was a worthy gift to herself. When a pregnant woman's husband asked if she would give up…

If you had a machine in the workplace, suddenly that's gone, leaving a French Press. Ok, fair enough, but before long, the actual coffee they were providing is replaced with the cheapest instant coffee available that doesn't even really taste like coffee. Now, they're no longer providing milk, so everyone has to buy thei…
