We know all too well at this point that HOA sagas can be drawn out for what seems like an eternity. Recently, a friend and her partner were unjustly fined for using an incorrectly installed air conditioner that was built by the prior tenant, who of course had not been fined. However, it did not matter who installed the air conditioner. The fact that someone discovered the installation went against the rules not long after they moved in and started using it was enough to hand out an intense fine…

Some people just want to watch the world burn. But when you're the one guy who's only job is to prevent destruction from consuming the job site, that's exactly what you're trying to avoid. For some supervisors, especially the arrogant kind with a ‘i-can-do-no-wrong' attitude, being the safety guy at a construction site doesn't actually mean anything. They just want to trot around, puff their chest, and tell everyone what to do– even if it's the wrong call.

Every so often, a neighborhood feud turns out to be mutually beneficial for both parties. Here, we've got a petty back-and-forth between this married couple and their Karen neighbor over the placement of a snow fence. Karen, who is new to the neighborhood, zip-tied said snow fence right along to the couple's gutters. After the husband cut it off and moved it back to her own yard, a feud officially started between the two households. What followed was a series of revenge moves that included Kare…

Now that we're officially back in session, it's time for some amusing high school and college anecdotes for any folks who have confused feelings about the school year. Even if you're no longer in school and all your loved ones are out of school too, there is something about the dawn of autumn that brings back those funny, wild, and cringeworthy school memories. Of course, I have many but the one I will reflect upon today took place during orientation week from my freshman year of college. I was…

These students had an absolutely hilarious idea for their senior prank — and it was so effective that their school ended up on the news.

Here is a cautionary tale for the demanding entitled Kevins out there who don't even realize that they're actively making enemies out of the people who are working for them. You know that there are more of these guys out there than just Pat. Pat was a friend of a friend to this Redditor , who therefore felt obligated to continue working for him. The Redditor would perform household duties as a side hustle outside of his full-time job. Pat is the kind of guy who would make demands out of nowhere…

In a thread that went viral, users were asked, "What would you name a newborn child if you really, really wanted to ruin their life, but wanted to maintain plausible deniability about having done it on purpose?" Oddly specific, but we're here for it. The responses were as entertaining as they were bizarre. People shared names that ranged from whimsical and fantastical to downright hilarious. On this side of the internet, traditional naming conventions are thrown out the window...

Starting to work at a new company is a leap of faith. We all want to have the best job possible, with a great salary, tons of perks, good coworkers, benefits, and a nice work-life balance. There's no such thing as a perfect job — you might have a great salary, but your boss is always breathing down your neck. Or maybe you have a lot of vacation time to use, but you work 80 hour weeks most of the time. It's a trade off, and it's all about finding an environment you can thrive in. These folks bel…

Roofing is an extremely dangerous job that is completely underrated in just how dangerous it is. Roofers are another breed, man. It's not only dangerous because you're literally working on something where if you make one false move or bad step, you could lose the use of your legs. But it is also dangerous because often times they don't even have benefits, pensions, healthcare, etc. It's absolutely absurd. The leading driver for OSHA fines as been the lack of fall protection for several years no…

Some forms of petty revenge are subtle, some are overt, and others are fishy. This story very much falls in the lattermost category… First of all, we all know what happens when you cook seafood. Unless you clean your kitchen and throw out your trash pretty much as soon as you're done eating, your place is going to stink . Well, this Redditor had to experience this awful stench not because he messed up but because his Dad's girlfriend was being petty. While OP was out of town over a three-day we…

Surgery is expensive in America. Sometimes insurance covers a little bit here and there, but if they don't, you could be looking at a hefty bill with a couple commas in the total balance. That's why, when this teenaged girl was diagnosed with benign tumors in her breast, she wasn't jumping for joy like most people do when they find out they're cancer-free...

Parenting is a wild ride full of unexpected turns and decisions you never thought you'd have to make. In 2023, there are countless books, classes, online resources, and more to help you parent the best you can parent. But back the day, say the 1980s, it was a kind of “figure it out for yourself” thing. Sure you had other moms to give you advice and maybe a book or two from the library, but the psychology done on parenting was not something to be desired quite yet. So many moms just mom'd by fol…

If you're looking to go for a swim in the middle of your living room , I know the perfect house for you. Seriously — it exists. And it's #22 on this list of eccentric houses. When you want to sell your home , a realtor and photographer will help you snap a bunch of pictures that make your home seem appealing to a potential buyer. Usually, they'll try to highlight the best features while downplaying the worst of them. However, some houses are so, um, unique that there's no hiding the previous ow…

It doesn't matter what your line of work is. It doesn't matter if you work in an office, in a restaurant, in a warehouse, or remotely. Chances are you have dealt with an unruly and/or bizarre coworker. Perhaps in the moment, your experience with this person was a cringeworthy one. Perhaps it did not end well for you or for them. However, provided that you came out unscathed, you probably are grateful to have the story. Some of these coworkers range from the unethical to the strange. For instanc…

This person worked 23 days in a row — but only because they were promised a nice cash bonus.

No amount of wealth should excuse any customer from the rules. Unfortunately, there are plenty of entitled rich folks out there with “influence” who seem to think otherwise.
