You never really know a person's quirks and habits fully until you've lived with them. For these poor roommates , it's too late! They're already stuck living with a person who is convinced that they're doing everything right, and their roommate is the one interfering, actually. I've had wonderful luck with roommates in my own life, they all were normal and clean (great qualities in a cohabitator). The worst thing that ever happened was when my roommate put an egg in the microwave and as soon as…

Nothing stings like the pain of looking at your schedule for next week and seeing a Saturday-Sunday 'CLOPEN'

Conflict emerged when this neighbor's kid demanded that he receive "half the money" from a bake sale when he decided he was bored and wanted to go home early. He wasn't even willing to stay the full duration and put in the work in order to earn his part of the cash. The other kid responded that this wasn't fair and that they should split the money earned for the duration that the neighbor's kid had worked. This prompted the neighbor to march over to this family's house, complaining that it wasn…

This employee just did what they were told to do...

Argo Navigation is a free app for boaters for them to connect, share local boating knowledge, and discover/ get directions to new destinations. It was created by a lifelong boater, but you probably wouldn't have heard about any of this if you weren't already a very intense boater. You would have to be searching for this specific app to find it. Marketing is hard, however, this app creator had a secret marketing weapon he didn't even know he had. He had his Gen Z daughter. While at a boating con…

Working in customer service, retail, and the service industry is exhausting. Long hours spent almost entirely on your feet, with inconsistent scheduling and shift work being incredibly disruptive and making it hard to get a routine going in your personal life. Despite this, there's one thing that makes these jobs particularly hellish: people. People are why workers in these lines of work have such a problem with people, and there's really no explaining this to someone who hasn't experienced it.…

We've all had a terrible roommate, and if you haven't, it's because you probably are someone else's terrible roommate!

2023 has taught us that most people actually have no interest in self-improvement. In fact, if you've been guzzling disgusting green juice every morning, your muscles ache from pushups you did that one time, and you're getting really tired of dry January, you might have been a little overzealous with your New Year's Resolutions this year. Maybe it was the Christmas eggnog talking, but for some reason, in December, you thought you could change your life habits overnight just by saying that you w…

What's the worst gift you've ever gotten? No matter how bad the gift you receive is, the polite thing to do is thank the person who gave it to you — after all, it's the thought that counts . That's the issue here, with this person's unhinged mother in law who put a decent amount of ill will behind this present. As the OOP tells it, her MIL gifted her a present that is impressively unusable! She asked the internet what exactly she should do with this gift card of bad omens. With this update, we…

Well spank our grandma and call us grits! If y'all are a cowboy or cowgirl who loves to hoot and holler with laughter, then we reckon you've come down to the right place. Howwwwdy, meowwwdy, yeet-haw, and haw yee? We love to share our favorite rodeo going-fields working-horse riding memes with fellow hardworking country folk out there. You ever watch the sunrise over a beautiful field of crops during the height of the season? There ain't nothin' like it. Ever ride a horse and just knew you were…

Roaches and bedbugs and landlords, oh my!

If you're going to try and strictly enforce a rule, you'd better make sure that that rule is actually a rule first — otherwise, you're just opening a door that you might wish you had left closed. In this case, that door is a big hairy man rocking a tight pair of yoga pants. When this new manager joined the company, they made an immediate target out of the employee's uniforms; the original poster writes that they made a particular target out of the girls' yoga pants. This caring coworker thought…

Some housing communities have something called a homeowner association, and oftentimes, its purpose is to act as a little parasite, bugging people to no end with ridiculous notions such as 'Making sure your lawn is green enough' — in February , no less. This man was fined for exactly that, as well as for the fact that his trash cans were 1 foot away from where they were 'supposed to be', and he found it utterly ludicrous. He refused to accept this reality, so he came up with a plan. What ensued…

It's surprising how colossal secrets are kept for so long within companies themselves, but more so when you think about how many employees have since left said company, and kept their mouths shut. Perhaps they signed an NDA, or they're afraid that they'll be sued regardless. Maybe they don't care, or they think others won't. Either way, it is of paramount importance for the world to find out about certain (bad) things, so that individuals can work together to put a stop to them. We all play an…

Two Karens walk into a supermarket and the rest is history!

We've all been the person who overshares and the person who someone overshares to...neither position is a great place to be.
