When you're not born into wealth, it's easy to be skeptical of the whole ‘it’s who you know, not what you know' philosophy in the working world. Although we've all seen nepo-babies rise to the top with nothing but a silver spoon and a pair of coattails to ride, most working folks don't fully realize the power of connections until we witness it in action.

Parking permits are a scam in college. Schools know that broke students are barely scraping together enough pocket change to eat instant noodles every night, so why not squeeze out an extra $300 per semester to allow them to park on campus? Clearly, it's a luxury to park your car half a league from your classroom, but not one that every student can afford.

Not many of us have the financial luxury to sue anybody. Even if we have a case of a hostile workplace or cut wages or unpaid overtime, usually the cost of a lawyer is enough to dissuade us from pursuing justice. Unfortunately, this is how a lot of blue-collar and minimum-wage employees are exploited time and time again... But there are stories of fabled heroes standing up for the little man, where justice prevails and dirtbag bosses get exactly what they deserve.

How often do you think one should visit their grandparents? Of course, it depends on how far they live from them, but let us assume they live no more than an hour away. Should they visit once or twice a month, every week, or maybe even a few times a week? Regardless of your answer, this Reddit story might change your perspective on the subject at hand. The OP of the Reddit post wrote about a competition her grandfather decided to secretly hold between all the members of the family. Throughout t…

Just the knowledge that our landlords probably bought our apartment for 1/10th it's current value and are living fat off of our rent check every month is enough to grind every tenant's gears, but if a landlord has the audacity to wring out a single cent more than our rent amount at the end of the month, we feel the back of our throats prickle with rage.

Parking tickets are objectively the worst. As drivers, all we ever really want is to pull up with ease, park right away, and move on with our lives, but if you live in a city, your odds of finding a parking spot immediately are slim. Sharks lurk in their tiny parking police golf carts, waiting for impatient drivers to slip up, so they can slap an irksome fee on your windshield. Heed my words, never mess with the parking police– unless they mess with you first!

A stoppable force meets an immovable object—the makings of any classic story—like Batman, only not quite . Well, in this case, you end up with a broken baseball bat and a couple of angry idiots who have met their match with an indestructible hunk of metal. Redditor u/AQuietBorderline posted this story to r/ProRevenge about a group of college engineering students tasked with creating a mailbox that was virtually indestructible. This is exactly the kind of thing that needs to happen when a couple…

It's a wild world out there… and when you open the magical wardrobe of online dating, there's no telling what might spill forth. Sure, you're probably going to encounter some mischievous fauns—who have more experience sending unsolicited photos of their anatomical features than participating in actual conversation. You'll probably also run into that ice queen who cares for naught but how she's perceived on social media—but is seeking a partner to finance her photo-centric misadventures. You mig…

Are these people geniuses or just making their mishaps look intentional? In Hollywood the most common advice you'll hear from a seasoned industry professional is that you gotta fake it until you make it. For some people, those same principals apply to their own non-Hollywood lives, especially during Christmas time. Everyone always thought their parents were just being regular people when they hung up the Christmas lights on a two-story house , but now we realize that our parents were actually s…

Lawyer-tastic.

It was effective.

Whoa look, an actually good outcome.

The sheer audacity.

Hey look, a need.

Loud and clear.
