23-year-old croc-wearing boyfriend draws girlfriend's wrath when he insists on wearing crocs to every occasion, readers are divided on the issue: 'He feels like I am controlling him by asking him not to wear Crocs'

Most of us probably have that item of clothing that we wear whenever we can. When we're wearing it, we feel good, we look good, and most importantly, we are comfortable. As we get older, comfort takes priority, and looking smart is just an added bonus.

Whether it was picking apples or fancy…

'I choose to no longer entertain this position': HR abruptly cancels job candidate's scheduled interview and hires someone else, that person rejects them, HR comes crawling back

It's always challenging to entertain an opportunity from people who once rejected you. Of course, there are plenty of scenarios in which one should not allow one's ego to keep oneself from a legitimately great opportunity, especially if the initial rejection was polite and sensibly delivered. However, that was certainly not the case with this Redditor's unfortunate situation. He had a previously scheduled interview with human resources for a job opportunity that was then abruptly canceled befor…

Karen gets upset about other dogs and their owners during official park "dog party": 'I have a right to be here'

I'm a dog lover and owner, but the first thing that I'll recognize about dog ownership is that a lot of people are wildly irresponsible with and about their pets. Still, it seems almost impossible to get things exactly right in the modern world of dog training and ownership; everywhere you look, there is conflicting advice and strategies that the people pushing them swear you must follow. Some are based on research and empirical evidence, while others are theoretical and hokey. And, yet, even t…

It’s rare to see someone successfully get back at their HOA these days, but as it turns out, miracles can happen and this dude really worked wonders.

He did this by planting mini sound emitters that would erupt in…

Restaurant forces staff to compete for a chance to keep their jobs, letting customer reviews decide who keeps their job: 'Slacking off is not an option'

We thought the titular contests of the “Hunger Games” series were just some SciFi hoopla, yet here is this eerily similar real-world equivalent: competing for the privilege of working so that you can continue to support your own survival. In fact, “Hunger Games” is a fitting name given the fact that the arena for this real-world analog was in a restaurant. Everyone who has ever worked in the service industry or retail knows that customer reviews are a total grab bag, you can do nothing exceptio…

The New ‘Harry Potter’: Can Gen Alpha live up to the original Millennial standard of Hogwarts royalty?

Who will be the next Harry Potter? Such a question was unthinkable to anyone who grew up in the late 1990s and early 2000s. The Harry Potter books, movies, merch, theme parks, and Halloween costumes, just to name a few, are among the highest-grossing media franchises of all time. Anyone from that era would’ve told you: “Harry Potter is Daniel Radcliffe.” Image via @gayrauder In the original film series, the young wizard Harry Potter is played by Daniel Radcliffe.

Entitled resident's dog goes to the bathroom on neighbor's lawn every day, neighbor finally gets payback: 'I emptied that box into their garbage can and waited'

This wasn't exactly neighborly behavior on both sides of the situation. However, the Redditor ended up doing what he had to in order to make the message to his entitled next-door neighbor clear.
