These people had buying experiences that were so bad, they had to share it with the world. And thank goodness they did, because now we know a bunch of items that just aren't worth wasting money on. Buying a new thing only to have it not work is infuriating. Lately I've stopped buying things from the billion-dollar company named after a rainforest, because the stuff I get from there just does not work. You really do get what you pay for, sadly. I bought a few headphone accessories from one selle…

You know what they always say at weddings: “Speak now, or forever hold your peace.” In most cases, the phrase is just ornamental. It seems obvious that in most cases there's nothing to speak about, because it's really only the newlyweds' opinions which matter on their special day.

When organizing a trip, there are many factors to take into account. The list is endless and includes the hotel, the vehicle to collect you from the airport, the various activities, and the restaurants. But despite their evident importance, the flights are an important component that is occasionally overlooked. The flights and seats you book should be carefully considered when making travel plans, as they have the power to make or break the remainder of your trip. The story that follows is an a…

Rich people doing rich people things

There are few life experiences that are more humbling than going through a job interview.

These people could hardly hold back their laughter after overhearing some odd conversations . They say that kids say the darndest things, but so do adults who are chatting in public, thinking that no one can hear them. It’s one of life’s joys to yap a little while you’re on the subway or in an elevator. Maybe there are people around you, but they’re strangers, so who cares if they overhear you? When I am that stranger, I always listen in to other people’s conversations . Maybe I’ll never see yo…

A lot of folks are not in touch with reality . They just live in their own blissful little bubble, unaware of life's hardships. These people are usually wealthy. Money can help you solve any problem, or ignore almost anything. Got kids? Hire three nannies ! You're working too hard? Just take a long vacation and then earn more money! See, it's so easy! On r/askreddit, u/mouldygoldie asked people to share the most severe cases of being out of touch with the world. There were some hilarious exampl…

Maybe you can't recall the best wedding you've ever been to, but the worst one probably comes to mind instantly. Every couple wants their wedding to be memorable in the right way. They want guests to gush over the decorations, talk about how delicious the food is, and dance late in the night until their feet are sore. It's supposed to be fun… but a lot of weddings end up being so much work that the guests hardly get to enjoy themselves. A common factor seems to be the brides and grooms who plan…

Even the smartest person in the room occasionally has a memory lapse. It happens to all of us at some point. However, there are people who seem chronically out of the loop, catastrophically dim, or unreasonably unprepared for daily life. We love these people all the same, but their off-the-wall remarks still stick with us. One Redditor who goes by u/_FrankAbagnale asked for people to share the “dumbest question someone legitimately asked you,” and more than 31k people replied. Some people were…

‘I didn’t cut [my hair]. It fell out':

Pick a card, any card… And hope your magician gets the trick right . The trick to nailing any kind of performance is practicing over and over and over again. Practice alone, in front of a crowd, in front of your parents, or in a park. The point is to get very comfortable with your performance. That way, if something goes wrong, it's no big deal! You'll be prepared for whatever happens, and able to quickly get back on track. Talented magicians know that their tricks take years to master. A lot o…

What is the one thing someone could do to ensure they'd never get an invite from you again? These folks were faced with that question after hosting some very impolite people. It doesn't matter if it's an unstoppable little toddler or a badly-behaved party-animal adult, when that person crosses the line, they won't be allowed back. Count yourself lucky if you've never had a terrible guest visit your home. That definitely happens from time to time. Some people shared that they hosted parties, onl…

‘the crowd started throwing things’

A good old-fashioned dramatic quitting can really boost morale. When times are already rough at the workplace, watching someone quit with flair can feel so righteous. Most people don't quit on the spot. Even if it seems like they're doing that, usually the resentment has been building for some time. There's that common saying that people don't quit bad jobs, they leave due to bad management. Over time, having a micromanaging boss or a supervisor who continually berates you really wears an emplo…

No more delusions of grandeur for the people in this economy.

These people thought they were getting good advice , only to realize years later how wrong the advice was. Relying on trusted friends and family members is how many people get through life. Of course, you trust the judgment of your mom or your best friend… but they aren't always right. Sometimes well-meaning bits of advice can totally miss the mark. Just because dad can dole out some advice that his father gave him in the 1970s, doesn't mean that's useful in today's day and age. Thanks, but no…
