AITA: ‘She’s not smart enough' : Father refuses to pay for daughter's education, calls University of Cambridge ‘foreign’, demands she study in 'America'

Getting into the University of Cambridge is a pretty big deal, but not everyone thinks so. This father holds quite a few misconceptions regarding what ‘foreign’ means, and also has a stigmatic stance against his own daughter. Taking to r/AITA, he asked Redditors if he was in the wrong for refusing to pay for his daughter's education, based on the grounds that she ‘wasn’t as bright as her brother' and because the University she got into was ‘foreign’. Imagine calling one of the best Universities…

AITA: ‘I want a separate bedroom’ : Couple pays 50/50 rent, entitled boyfriend demands all spare rooms to himself, girlfriend claims 'it's not fair' and asks for separate bedroom

Moving in together with your significant other is as charming as it is stressful. This is the time you truly get to know them. Sharing a living space with anyone can be emotionally draining, and it's normal to want some space for yourself. One woman took to Reddit, sharing the news of her moving in with her boyfriend. They were going to rent a three-bedroom house and had two spare rooms that they were figuring out what to do with. The entitled boyfriend thought it was totally legitimate to dema…

'Your employee was unable to walk' : Entitled hotel guest attempts to dictate employee's life off the clock, manager puts guest on DNR list

'Your employee was unable to walk' : Entitled hotel guest attempts to dictate employee's life off the clock, manager puts guest on DNR list

Entitled people take any chance they get to make others feel like they personally work for them, and tend to be a tad controlling regarding people's personal lives. This hotel guest was aghast that a front desk employee dared go out with friends and have fun off the clock, AKA when he wasn't actually working (nor was he about to be on shift). Apparently, the employee was recognizable due to their work clothes (minus the nametag) and beard. How dare employees have a life?! The hotel guest also m…

'I left him $4.86 and a note saying he now owes people who can collect' : Petty revenge ensues when leech roommate attempts to leave friend with debt that may lead to eviction

Roommate situations can get muddled and messy real fast, especially when matters concerning money are involved. You'd think you could trust a friend in that regard, but don't be so quick to assume… people can unpleasantly surprise you, as made obvious in this tale of petty revenge. One man told his ‘roommate horror story’ to r/pettyrevenge, which took place many years ago. While in college, he rented out a room in the summer at a friend's apartment in Colorado. He wasn't aware that this ‘friend…

'I got my sister's account suspended' : Brother takes petty revenge on entitled influencer sister for adding him to her viral cooking videos without his consent, leading to family drama

Isn't it crazy that we live in an era where posting yourself online counts as a career? You can make millions of dollars by making maintaining a shocked expression as you stare at an imaginary audience through a camera and overexaggerate the pronunciation of every word you say. Hey, bonus if you learn a trending dance that includes exactly 3 moves with a voiceover of a baby screeching. Times have changed, y'all… This college student took to the r/AITA subreddit, asking Redditors for their take…

'Save £80 on flight cost? No problem, pay £1000 instead' : Employee plays petty game of malicious compliance with incompetent boss who attempts to cut travel costs on work trip

'Save £80 on flight cost? No problem, pay £1000 instead' : Employee plays petty game of malicious compliance with incompetent boss who attempts to cut travel costs on work trip

Put incompetent management and a travel budget in the same room, and this will be the result. This man's company wanted to save £80 on a work trip he had to go on, and being one of the biggest security companies in the world, they could have easily absorbed the cost, no question. But alas, someone in the head office wanted to talk a big game, and look good, possibly to get that promotion they so dearly desired. So they looked at cutting travel costs and changed OP's flight. Apparently, this per…

'Sure, I'll subscribe. My phone's battery is very low, can you call me back on my work number? ' : Man outwits spam callers, they end up donating to charity

Everyone hates scams, in all their ugly forms, and that includes those pesky spam phone calls from ‘unknown’ numbers that provide that all too familiar shady feeling in your stomach. Sometimes curiosity might get the better of you, so you pick up, and hear that convincing tone saying, ‘Can you hear me?’. After which you reply, ‘Yes’, they immediately launch into their race of a conversation.

'The woman laughed and made a whiney noise, mimicking me. She had no idea who she was messing with.' : Entitled Karen teases woman and steals her parking space, leading to wild revenge

Parking at wholefoods can suck the happiness out of anyone. Even if you won the lottery ten minutes prior, sliding into the wholefoods parking lot will take your high and throw it in the trash. The number of Karens running, driving, strutting and squawking is implausible, unless you've seen it firsthand. This lady was waiting patiently for her turn in said parking lot, her blinkers turned on, the wind blowing in her hair, just chilling, as an elderly woman was taking her time leaving her parkin…

'She told me she was a widow' : Woman cheats for free drinks and a meal, date finds out and notifies her husband, leading to messy divorce

Shame is a trait that not everyone has in abundance. Then again, when taking into consideration that cheaters don't tend to be the most considerate people, the story below makes a smidge more sense. One woman was presumably a bit bored in her marriage, so she sought excitement elsewhere. A singles mixer bar, to be more specific. There she encountered a nice man, who she hit it off with. Instead of alerting him to the fact she was married, she told him her husband had passed. He didn't suspect a…

‘Redo the Essay, It’s Total and Utter Garbage’ : College Professor Spites Student, Leading To Malicious Compliance That Includes Debunking Professor’s Favorite Literary Magnum Opus

I'll be the first to admit, it's so deliciously fun to get back at a professor you dislike, for whatever reason. Sticking it to the know-it-alls is a satisfying feeling. Granted, this is the type of situation that could backfire, but in this case, it did not. A college student was on great terms with her professor until she wasn't. He'd belittled a very long paper she'd written, stating his utter disgust: ‘This is a pathetic excuse research-wise and a joke format-wise. He added that he would al…

'The Customer Is Not Always Right. You're Fired, Effective Immediately' : HR Roast Bitter Boss and Fire Him Following His Strict Rule of ‘Customer Is Always Right’ That Resulted in Loss of Profits

HR exists for various reasons, one of them being they oversee employee relations, but it isn't often that you come across HR that has an employee's back. Especially if the employee is maliciously complying… But when said malicious compliance results in loss of profits, you bet they're gonna have the worker's backs — perhaps not for the right reasons, but a win is a win! This employee in particular deserved a big win, and although it took some time, karma did its job — well, I might add. OP work…
