There's a whole lot going on in this post that's really difficult to un- pack (hah, get it) and that I really just can't quite wrap my head around. So, let's start here: Why on earth does a 13-year-old need FIFTY backpacks? With a single bag alone costing $500. And why in the heck does a 13-year-old have their own influencer account?.. And where in the heck are they storing all of these backpacks? At the risk of sounding very “old man yelling at clouds here,”… what in the heck is going on with…

A person's relationship with the people they work with can be tricky to handle. On the one hand, despite seeing them every day, those people are not really your friends, they are simply… people you see every day. On the other hand, and stay with me on this one, these are people you see every day , so you might want to be on good terms with them, and not create an awkward situation at the office. That is why I understand this employee's initial instinct to be kind to his coworkers by offering th…

We all know what happens when you assume… This entitled rich guy saw a delivery man at a fancy hotel and assumed he was the valet on hand despite the fact that no one gave him that information and the delivery guy was not even wearing a hotel uniform. Still, assumptions were made and the ensuing consequences were laughable. After the entitled male Karen gave the non-valet guy his keys and left without any time to clear up the confusion, the non-valet knew exactly what to do. He gave the fancy P…

First-day fumble

This kid doesn't know just how iconic he is for doing what he did. After trying to reconnect with his birth father, both of his biological parents sat him down over a video call and asked for his understanding if they go no-contact. Yup, you read that right. For a little backstory, the Redditor was the by-product of an extra-marital affair (both of his biological parents had spouses and stayed with them). He was primarily raised by his mother's grandparents, with his birth father secretly provi…

Incessant honking never helps. That's one rule everyone should learn when they start driving. Traffic is infuriating, but unless someone else is actively endangering other drivers or being reckless, there is no need to add fuel to the frustration. Your busy schedule is no more important than those of the other drivers on the road. In this scenario, however, we weren't even dealing with an insane traffic jam. It was a quiet evening in a suburban neighborhood, and because it was dark and there ha…

Receiving a job offer on the spot in an interview is supposed to be an exciting, game-changing moment. However, for this 43-year-old medical expert who had decades of experience as a certified expert and professional, the offer ended up being so insulting and so shocking that his reaction was anything but excitement. This Redditor explained how he was offered a paltry $12 an hour for a new position. Additionally, there would be no benefits if he had chosen to take the job. Thankfully, he had th…

When you try to out-Karen, a fuel truck driver, you're basically begging for karma to swoop in. This particular Karen found that out the hard way. The driver had parked his truck to make a fuel delivery, blocking all the front parking spaces at the gas station. Driving a Tesla, Karen couldn't be bothered to park a little farther away. She moved the cones and parked right by the door. When the driver politely asked her to move, she told him to "get bent." So, naturally, he parked his truck inche…

Everyone likes to think that they're the exception to a rule, usually because they're so certain that they're so much better and smarter than everybody. The reality of the situation couldn't be further from the truth, and the truth is this: If you think you're the exception, the rule exists for you. This couldn't be truer than when it comes to parents who think that their kids should be an exception to “child-free” events, either bringing them anyway without saying anything or making some drama…

No one enjoys waiting to board a plane when you're in one of the later groups. That being said, finding a scapegoat to externalize your frustration is not going to make your situation any better. Take it from someone who is almost always in boarding groups 7 through 9. This Redditor may have been young, but he had a doctor's note that gave him early boarding access because he was in recovery from a recent knee surgery, which led some folks to wonder why he was even on a flight in the first plac…

The anecdotes about this telemarketer have made it crystal clear that he's the problem. His form of petty revenge after he got let go only further proves that he's got a twisted mind. Creative, mind you, but twisted nonetheless. The Redditor who recounted this story begins with some background information about how as a teenager, he blamed his girlfriend for having a bathroom accident in his parents' vacation home… and that's not where bathroom accidents end in this story. Of course, it shows e…

"I had to ask him last fall nicely to remove all the leaves he blew up against my house for an entire winter and then he took that as permission to trespass and blow leaves around my entire house."

Theme parks can bring out the absolute worst in families. You're likely to see anything from screaming children to obnoxious teenagers to entitled parents. In this story, you get a little bit of it all. Here, we've got a theme park attendee who was waiting in a single-rider line and saw a family of folks right in front of them, who clearly wanted to ride together but had no desire to wait in the regular line as the wait time was over an hour. Of course, when it was finally their turn, the paren…

It sounds like Dave had it coming! After shrugging off a series of complaints from his neighbor about playing loud music well into the middle of the night, it was time for Dave's comeuppance. The Redditor who shared this story first made it known that he tried his best to be polite and understanding when he voiced his concerns to Dave, to no avail. Dave laughed it off and made it seem like it wasn't his problem. It's the laugh that definitely triggered something in the Redditor. When he learned…

Hotel guests say the darnedest things!

This tenant and her husband had lived peacefully in their apartment for over two years, never causing trouble, paying rent on time, and dealing with their landlords' agonizingly slow repair schedule without complaint. But one early morning, the tenant was woken by a call from her 75-year-old "Mom-Landlord," screaming at her for parking on the grass. But just a few days earlier, the "Son-Landlord" had told them they could park on the grass while the parking lot was being repaved. But logic didn'…
