cars

The general idea here is whether or not older cars are "better" than newer ones when it comes to accidents. Sure, an older sturdy car won't fall apart as easily in an accident. What it will do is transfer all the kinetic energy of a crash directly into your body. Sometimes people on the internet are wrong about stuff, like this discussion about the facts of plague and veganism

When this dad showed up at a luxury car dealership not looking the part of a wealthy customer, the employees proceeded to not take him seriously. They were rude and judgmental, and ultimately paid the price. Dad gets the sweet satisfaction of enjoying free car washes from the very people who wrote him off in the first place. 

When this parking lot "Karen" decided she'd cut a guy off who actually needed the disabled parking lot spot, he maintained composure, and took one very satisfying and clever revenge on her. To make matters even better, he waited around to hear the extent to which she proceeded to lose her shit. Let's just say she had one definite emotional explosion. 

It's pretty rare that people manage to solve stuff like this so gracefully. And what's really surprising is that the owner was on his side. He must have hated the manager already. Sometimes people stick up for themselves and get results, like this bicyclist who got hist by a jerk driver.

Nothing feels quite like pouring your blood, sweat and tears into buying a piece of junk 2005 civic just to watch some kid get a brand new BMW from Mommy and Daddy. Rich kid syndrome is real, and it's one of the most maddening things to watch from the outside. For more, here are dumbfounded people sharing their craziest encounters with rich kid syndrome.

The car didn't have a ton of life remaining, but this guy made sure his boss knew he was getting a bad deal. We've had bad bosses before, so it's cathartic to see incompetent managers get the short end like this boss who stupidly ordered a contractor to go on call and ended up with a $10,000 invoice or this guy who hired a thief as his replacement.

Musician Jason Isbell took to twitter to ask people about the most devastating thing they've ever spilled in their car. When you think about it, a car is one of the most stressful places to spill something, and should be chalked up as one of life's more disappointing moments. Everything in a car is usually covered in fabric, you're forced to sit in it, and if it's something that smells, good luck sitting in a tin can filled with old burger or whatever.

We all just want to get through a regular, uneventful day, but sometimes life makes things complicated. Sometimes even small things, like dropping a pan of kebabs, can be the most defeating feeling you've had in months. Sometimes it's something bigger, like accidentally overloading a semi-truck and destroying it. These things are all disappointing, but at least they don't happen to you every day,

Jimmy Fallon asked Twitter users to share their biggest car fails. The resulting tweets are full of dangerous disasters. People can be reckless animals on the road. 

Life is doling out bad hands, but luckily your number doesn't come up every day. Here's some highly varied "bad times" other people are having.

This guy's Tumblr thread about discovering a Dora the Explorer themed gangster car in a junkyard takes an even more unexpected twist when he learns that there are bullet holes in the window. Definitely a solid case of a post getting real dark real fast.
