The thought of being paid less than the legal minimum wage sounds outrageous to some people, especially to those outside of the US, but that's just how the bizarre nature of the US tipping culture works.

Neighborhood HOAs do not have a good track record these days. They used to be more like an HR department for neighbors to work through conflicts and disagreements in their community. Now, they just yell at you for your property not looking a certain way they want it to look . For example, god forbid you have a few weeds growing on your lawn. Recently, a girl named Mae online posted about an HOA violation she received about the weeds on her lawn. The email was caddy and entitled and nit picky. T…

There are certain things in life that just make sense: Like hiring a plumber to help in your plumbing department and an electrician for the electrical department. Well, this mysteriously nameless “home improvement store” got their wires crossed when this manager decided to nepotistically appoint an electrician to the full-time plumbing department that they had just hired a plumber to work in. When the plumber came to start their full-time job… they were told by the manager that they actually ha…

Trying to get to the airport for a flight is truly one of the most stressful things in the world. No matter how well you plan, how far in advance or how organized you try to be, issues will arise. This poster on Imgur shared their outrageous experience with one of the worst customer service chat bots ever, like maybe in the history of chat bots. It's genuinely cringeworthy to see the repeated attempts of this poor person to get some help!

Sometimes in life… the low road is the right one. This Karen brought a metaphorical knife to an actual nuclear arms race when she decided to go toe to toe with this IT guy and blamed him for all of her stupid nonexistent troubles. As readers have pointed out in the comments: It's never a good idea to pick a fight with the guy who writes code when your job is easily replaced by a single line of it — that's just begging for the unfortunate outcome that has occurred for Karen here. After the repea…

Why should any of this matter if the work gets done well?

Ah, New Jersey. A complex state on the east coast. Basically everyone low-key hates it there, first and foremost the people who live there! But for some reason, they all stay in dirty Jerz. Is it the location - close to the cheesesteaks of Philadelphia and the beaches of Atlantic City? Is it the sprawling suburbs, or the I-95 that draws folks in? Maybe it's rooting for only Philly teams (GO EAGLES!) and our favorite mascots (that would be Gritty, obviously). I grew up there, so I know enough ab…

“Have you ever been in a relationship where you thought you were being cheated on and then you find out what's actually happening, and then you just wish you were being cheated on?”

They were right in front of you the whole time...

Ever since the frankfurter was invented in Germany, people have been eating hot dogs and sausages. It's was a rather popular American food for quite some time, and even today, they're a staple at baseball games and July 4th cookouts.

There's nothing like a bossy, nosy neighbor Karen who can't help but march across the street to be bossy and nosy in someone else's home.

There will always be people who consider themselves to be the exception — to rules, laws, or just plain old common etiquette. These entitled individuals think they're the main character but don't even stop to consider the fact that they're really just making themselves into one of many faceless, disposable goons in everyone else's day — like those hordes of aliens in the first Avengers who just mercilessly eradicated in the final act having received literally zero screen time. Anyways, this bro…

Working relationships are built on mutual trust — so why are so many recruiters determined to start things off with deceit?

When you order a cake from a bakery, you expect it to look professional – right? Not for one customer, who got a bad surprise when this bakery kind of messed up her cake. It's botched enough to notice - but some people on the internet actually don't think it looks that bad.

Friendly reminder that you're not missing out on much.
