Cracker Barrel was ice cold with this move. They fired a woman after she worked for them for 11 years on her birthday! Her caring husband decided to call out the company's coldhearted move on their Facebook page. The comments section evolved into a hot and fiery den of people defending the poor woman who got fired.

Tumblr is a creative place where people do the math on Ice Cube songs and make earth-shattering dad jokes, but mostly it's people shooting comments at each other. You can tell a lot about a person by how they present themselves online. In one camp we have the earnest ones trying to reach out for a connection, share their art, or tell a wholesome story. Then you've got the fun people. They're much more fun.
We're not exactly sure how relatable this problem is, but at least they have a sense of humor about it. I guess the lesson here is don't wait too long to scatter a loved one's ashes. And I guess the other lesson would be "don't expect helpful solutions from the internet." Facebook commenters can deliver pretty serious burns, like the time they roasted this ad for having an absurd model with a comically tight shirt.
What gets the blame for this? People's bad senses of humor? Poor reading comprehension skills? Whatever the reason, there are real idiots out there who, upon reading an obvious joke headline by a known satire website like The Onion, will assume it's true and pollute the comments section with their own moronic take on a fake situation. And man are these people fun to laugh at. For more here's another bunch of softheaded nincompoops who believed satire.
There are a few things the internet has in abundance. One is platforms to speak your mind. Another is total doofuses who think they're literally the smartest person on the planet. Combine the two and you get some pretty cringeworthy action of totally un-self-aware folks trying as hard as they can to tell the world that they're brilliant. For more of this crap, here are some cringeworthy egotistical titans of knowledge who think they're all that.
rogersimon10 is not your typical comments troll. This legend will come in when the pot is hot, and lay waste to AskReddit threads with admirable mastery. You never know when rogersimon10 might strike, but rest assured the comments section will NEVER be the same when they do. It's like Reddit's own version of Ken M. And if you don't know who the legendary online comments troll Ken M is, see here. You'll thank us later.
There are a lot of reasons people lie online. They lie to get fake internet points, to mislead consumers, and to just make themselves feel better. People write fake reviews, ask fake questions, claim someone lost weight through their own scam diet shakes, and make up ridiculous, outlandish lies. Luckily there are people out there committed to finding the truth and calling this BS out into the light. For more justice, here are more no-good liars who got called on their BS.
The internet is full of lying liars and sadly the burden of routing them out is placed squarely on the general public. Lucky for us there's a hard-researching few who are committed to pointing out the lies. And boy does that justice feel good. Check this out for more liars who got called out on their absurd BS.

What a BRAVE message. They've banded together to defend their cause, and call that comments section out!
These folks asked the internet to roast them and the internet delivered like they paid extra for shipping. It doesn't even matter if someone looks particularly good or not, r/roastme will find a way to dig through someone's flaws until they hit bedrock. For more savagery, check out these 40 brutal roasts,
These angry mouth breathers got themselves livid over a whole bunch of NOTHING. Yes, they were quick to the draw when it came to calling out those iconically ridiculous, jokingly incendiary headlines that the Onion factory churns out. But they failed to slow down and recognize what was right in front of them-- a joke. And their failure to catch The Onion's jokes is our reward back at Fail Blog. If you want to check out more times people failed to discern The Onion's jokes, check here.
Sometimes a comment thread is actually fun. There's chill people making jokes and sharing interesting information. Everyone is just there for personal enjoyment. But then someone just has to ruin it by missing a few jokes, trying to correct everyone and claiming that they're a literal genius and that everyone else can suck a fat one. Just great.
The world was already full of liars before the internet. Nowadays, there's more opportunities to lie, but also more opportunities to deliver sweet internet justice to all the dishonest people of the world. If you wanna see more people called out for their rampant BS, then check these out.
Ken M's work takes him to the spicy trenches of social media's most emotionally abrasive comments sections. He is a shit starter, but does it in a smooth and cunning way that looks like its own lost art form. If anything, Ken M's typical pokes and prods encourage someone to take themselves a bit LESS seriously on social media. The online world's a place of exaggeration, deception, occasional wholesome, and a whole lot of other BS. It is fun to play around with it, every once and a while!
