Living in the middle of nowhere can be scary sometimes. With law enforcement miles and miles away, when something goes amok on your property, you're on your own. So while you're out there living in the boonies and you hear a calamitous kerfuffle outside, you should grab whatever weapon you can reach and go check it out yourself.

Everyone wants to play the blame game when it comes to a car accident. They shouldn't have merged here! They were going too fast! They were parked safely and visibly? It's easy to point fingers at the opposing party in any fender bender, but when a guy hits a car that's parked in a perfectly normal parking spot, there's no secret about who's at fault …

There's something inherently unbalanced about one person or a for-profit organization having (relatively) unchecked control over whether or not someone has a roof over their head. Even after having direct control over how often the tenant has to move, they can also directly influence the tenant's success in finding a new home when forced to—thanks to the “all-important” tenant referral system that is pivotal in determining whether or not other landlords will rent to them. Should the tenant have…

It seems like we're always getting email promos for 10% off or 20% discounts to our favorite retail stores. Very rarely, you see a 40-50% sale and only when a store is going out of business do you catch anything higher than 75% off. That's why when one cashier spotted a Karen waltzing into their store with a 99% off coupon, they smelled something fishy.

When you're a kid, it's always fun to try to get away with stuff. Sneaking into movies, pocketing a candy bar at checkout, and watching scandalous late night TV with your buddies combines the thrill of being caught with the reward of saving money– three kids piled up in a trench coat can all agree that sneaking into a movie theater for a free flick and a dash of debauchery is the best. As adults though, when you don't pay for tickets to things, then it's no longer charming or cute...

Quitting a job is stressful and can lead your imagination to anticipate a myriad of possible terrible outcomes. The worst case scenario would probably be your current boss being secret best friends with your new one, prompting them to call your new boss and tell them not to hire you before firing you on the spot. Yes, it's unlikely can happen while working in small towns and close-knit industries—or when you're leaving a company to work for their major supplier. Still, despite wild imagination,…

It turns out nepo babies even have it easier when it comes to getting that first crappy job that we all have to have, but that doesn't mean you're actually going to be successful in the role. These “first jobs” usually consist of a workplace environment where "doing what you're told" is pretty much your only required skill. So not doing what you're told—because you're an entitled little turd of a human being—generally won't get you very far. That is unless your family has enough money and enoug…

A small spark of discourse can grow into a wildfire when both sides are fanning the flames; ego, pride, and prejudice can drive us to go great lengths and take us down surprising paths, all over something that totally wasn't worth worrying about in the first place. It's no small wonder that something as simple as a dispute over an alarm clock can drive two family members to a point where they're clawing at each other and marching down toward mutually assured destruction. The original poster of…

What do you do when you've been caught and punished for your delinquent actions? Apologize and learn from the experience, improving your life and outlook? No! Double down on your mistakes — of course! That was the illogical reasoning that led us to this update in a post that was shared on Reddit's r/EntitledPeople subreddit. This one escalates and gets pretty wild. I was kind of on the fence about sharing this one because it takes a sharp left turn out of the “fun zone.” after the nephew is arr…

As someone wise once said, Karma is a God.

Landlords are— well… lords . Their power over their tenant is totalitarian — they set the rate a tenant has to pay to access housing and, on a whim, can send the tenant scrambling for a new place.

Working as a delivery driver can be a hell of an experience. Consistently driving around and interacting with people on the threshold of their homes exposes you to a lot of experiences you'd probably rather not have witnessed; there's a reason why there's no shortage of crazy stories from delivery drivers floating around the wider web. People are strange, that's just a fact, and the more of them you interact with in a day, the more likely you are to encounter someone in uncomfortably close prox…

Oh, how the tables turn

This gal was keeping a box full of cash, representing her literal and metaphorical aspirations to attend medical school. She's in her last semester and has worked for 5 ½ years to get to this point.

Priests are allowed to drink.

Turns out poor decisions have real-world consequences.
