Man, sometimes you say something, completely kidding, and it ends up manifesting further on down the road. In this case, we can understand why the guy's friend had the initial reaction that he did. The dad had already been through the miraculous, shocking experience that is having twins, only to learn that he's about to have some triplets too. That kind of development will definitely do a number on most anyone. 

While we don't exactly have the fairytale ending because the cops showed up, it still must've been satisfying for this tenant to repeatedly prove to their whiny neighbor that they weren't actually smoking inside. That being said, it does sound like the old lady neighbor finally stopped bothering her neighbor about something that they were never doing in the first place. So, there's that nice silver lining. 

The life of a barista is a weird one. When every customer you have is someone who hasn't had their first coffee of the day, there's no knowing what kind of people can lumber in. Some take on the challenge and become a barista that's the living definition of chaotic good. Others just stand in awe and watch a 46-year-old woman drink 8 Red Bulls worth of caffeine in a single swig.

Someone on AskReddit got a thread going about the most unexpected excuses that teachers received from students. We've got our fair share of excuses that were clearly blatant lies, and then we've got the brutal, unexpected reasons that kids didn't turn in assignments that were just crazy enough to be actual truths. You never know what could be going on in someone's life!

When a job needs to get done, sometimes that need gives way to a wonderfully unprofessional "not my job" moment. And other times, a lack of critical thinking or need to get that job done quick results in a spectacular display of brash dudes engaging in risky maneuvers. Either way, you see some questionable stuff.

This company learned their lesson the hard way when it came to demanding an employee turn up at work, in spite of having to deal with a broken bike. Nothing quite brings the blood to a boil like a company that refuses to recognize their employees will have curveballs pop up, and that sometimes meetings simply can't be made. 

Someone on AskReddit got a thread going about truck drivers' creepiest experiences from their time out on the road. Turns out if you spend enough time out on the road, you're bound to encounter some especially spooky phenomenon. 

A bad Homeowner's Association can be a place of corruption, vitriol, and ancient neighbors being impossible about garbage cans. There are loads of people who had to deal with a nightmare HOA, but few of them turned things around like this person and BECAME the HOA.

Being able to squawk about your perceived achievements and intelligence is one of the unfortunate byproducts of social media. It's given a chance for Brain-Tyrants who believe they're literal geniuses to spread their wings and fly into the ceiling fan of self-congratulation. Thanks for clogging up the internet, you mistaken brain-lords.

Someone on AskReddit got a thread going about the times that people's expertise was unnecessarily challenged. Nothing is quite as satisfying as putting someone's obnoxious assumptions about your skillset in check. 

Online marketplaces connect everyone in a fascinating world of supply and demand, where sometimes the supply is old benches from fast food places, uniquely shaped Cheetos, and extremely realistic horror-themed baby dolls. There's not a whole lot of demand for all the weird and bad stuff people try to sell online, but at least it's a spectacle.

Spooky season inspires all kinds of ridiculous nonsense. With that being said, we can't say that we've ever encountered this kind of situation, involving one person wanting to put a birthday hat on their neighbor's pumpkin. It is a pretty dang petty move that could go on to inspire a full-fledged war between the neighbors. 

Life looks a lot different now than it did even twenty or thirty years ago. As recently as fifty years ago, even scientists had a hugely different idea of how the world worked. And a hundred years ago? Screw that, no one wants to live in a world without functioning toilet paper or high fives. On the flipside, there's also tons of stuff that's way older than people think.
