Going to the movie theater is all fun and games until you remember you have to deal with the general populace while there. For many people, having a night at the movies is the perfect way to view the newest blockbuster. There's nothing like the feeling of entering the theater and smelling that strong popcorn scent. You get your tickets and snacks , then make your way to your seat to watch a bunch of trailers. (Some people don't like watching trailers, but I think it's a good way to get your mon…

These birthday celebrators didn't get exactly what they wanted from the bakery … Even when you go to the most expensive bakery in town, you still might wind up with a weird cake. Sometimes the flowers look a little strange, or the writing on the cake is so cursive-y that it can barely be read. Just ask the people below, who shared their funniest and worst cake mistakes with the internet. Up next, this lawyer was told by the law partners at their firm to prioritize “quantity over quality,” but t…

It's that time of year once again! It's time to dress up for Halloween, carve some pumpkins , eat some pumpkin pie, pick some apples, and rake the leaves off your lawn. The weather is cooling down while we're heating up a mug of apple cider. For many people, autumn is a perfect time of year: not too hot nor too cold, and full of fun activities for the whole family. However, these people have had a few mildly infuriating things happen to them. One all-too-common gripe was people carving pumpkins…

As much as people love to talk about how great Airbnb is, there is also a lot wrong with that concept, starting with the people who become hosts. Everywhere you go, you'll hear at least one horror story of an Airbnb host who overcharged, gave terrible reviews, or even put up a hidden camera in the bathroom (if you know you know). This is why many people prefer to go back to ‘the old-fashioned way' and simply book a hotel. While this story is not as bad as a hidden camera tale, it is a perfect e…

As much as we all look forward to getting on a plane and going on vacation, no one likes the first part of the journey to their destination—the airport lines. Not one person enjoys arriving at the airport two hours (at least) before their flight and moving from one line to another until they actually board their flight. It is even more annoying when there is some holdup and you end up standing in one line forever, which is what happened to the passenger in this story. They had to wait for aroun…

These people are raising their eyebrows at some recent thrift store finds. They're not surprised at the great deals… instead, they're annoyed at the condition of the stores and the prices of the items! Thrift shopping or antique shopping can be very hit or miss. Sometimes you find excellent clothing, a barely-worn pair of shoes, or some toys for the kids that are still in great condition. Instead of spending hundreds at a regular store, you can get some cheap stuff and feel good about saving th…

These people just want to work out , but they're having trouble due to… the other people at the gym. Going to the gym can be really motivating. You can go with a friend so that you can talk while you work out. Some people like to go alone and listen to a podcast while they run or some music while they lift weights. There's often a community of dedicated gymgoers who come in every morning or night hoping to become healthier. But it's not all fun and games, because some people are not versed in g…

Make sure to read those online reviews before you book a hotel . It might save you some time and money! Or, like these people below, it might spare you the myriad issues that can occur in a hotel, from bedbugs to awful breakfast menus. I feel for the staffers at the “pool room” hotel (see #2). As you can see in the photo, there's a pool table on top of what looks like a covered-up swimming pool. The staffers must constantly have angry guests yelling about the pool room not having a pool. They c…

Are you ever influenced by social media stars ? For most of us, scrolling through the socials is something we do casually as we chill out on the couch. But for social media influencers , drawing your eyes to their content is a full-time job that they take incredibly seriously. The behind-the-scenes lives of influencers is fascinating stuff. Much like peeking behind the scenes of a movie set to see greenscreens and stunt performers, looking behind the curtain at Instagram content creators is als…

It's hard not to be affected by the many inconveniences life can throw in your general direction. It's not easy to go with the flow and to move on from something that totally thwarted your plans. Whether it's learning the subway has been delayed a fully 20 minutes or finding out that the gift you ordered for your Mom's birthday arrived with imperfections, these mildly infuriating moments can only be overcome with humor and commiseration. Otherwise, your head might explode from frustration alone…

Living with roommates is such a dice roll… are you gonna land on a good number or are you gonna lose the game? This woman was renting a house with a single mother and her son. She stated she didn't actually mind living with the pair, as they didn't interact much due to colliding work schedules, but over time, things got ugly anyway. The single mother was struggling financially, but the woman telling the story said that she didn't make a good salary either… so it's not a Robin Hood story. The wo…

It could be said that a large portion of one's life is consumed with the full range of unwanted inconveniences. These situations can vary from the minor to the major, from the temporary to the permanent, and from the eye-roll-inducing to the screaming-in-your-pillow reactions. For the sake of our collective amusement, we will be focusing on life's mildly infuriating moments today. You know, the kinds of situations that are intensely frustrating but not life-altering. In fact, at most, these mom…

Who knew that the best way to get back at your frat bro neighbor would be to play nursery rhymes and children's music? This dude was no longer in college and was blasting loud beats late at night during the work week. In short, he was the kind of selfish human we frequently tear down on this site. This Redditor tried everything to politely and calmly tell him to quiet down, to no avail of course. After a failed conversation and a fully ignored note on his door, she realized that the only way to…

Sometimes, the only way to get back at people who won't stop reaching out to you is by giving them a taste of their own medicine. Today, we're not talking about annoying relatives, friends, or coworkers. We are talking about receiving an endless number of calls from debt collectors who are clearly looking for someone else. In this instance, we have a Redditor who recently purchased a new phone and who has been getting nonstop calls 24/7. It's not the kind of thing you can easily ignore after a…

Should social media influencers still be a thing?

These people had a few irritating moments , and they took to the internet to share their misfortunes. From botched milkshakes to busted suitcases, people had a variety of issues to start of the new year . This milkshake of nightmares (#2 below) nearly choked the OP. That's because whoever made the beverage added in all the ingredients, and then blended it together with another cup and a straw still inside! The result is a shredded straw coated with shards of plastic. There's just no reason a cu…
