When a couple who loves cooking starts living with a guy who can't cook anything , hilarity ensues! It sounds like the start of a goofy movie, but for this couple, it's their reality. Cooking seems awfully easy when you're just watching someone do it. How hard could it be to turn on the heat, throw some food in a pan , and make magic happen? Well, it's certainly more difficult than that, but this house guest didn't know. He's under the impression that he can cook, but it's becoming increasingly…

This mom isn't 100% sure that she's doing the right thing here. After her son ate an inordinate amount of pizza, she turned to the internet to steer her in the right direction. After that, read about the ridiculous requests that hotel guests had, like one guest who “demanded a room upgrade because ‘their aura didn’t vibe' with the one they booked.”

These folks have some pretty good reasons that they aren't trusting that random restaurant down the block. Have you ever walked out of a restaurant before even eating? It happens from time to time, but there are plenty of red flags that might give a diner pause before ordering their meal. Up next, read about the reason why one petty teenager was “never asked to babysit again” after getting back at the older cousin who kept having her do way too much cleaning.

If you can avoid it, please don't be the customers who show up to an establishment mere seconds before closing time. There are few words that waiters hate to hear more than, “Oh good, we made it just before closing time!” The waitstaff are expecting people to be out of the building by the time the end of their shift rolls around. That way, they can properly close the restaurant: there's a lot of cleaning, restocking, or counting money that has to happen before all of the staffers can head home…

Just because your birthday is super important to you, doesn't mean everyone else has to celebrate it with you. Birthday celebrations are a lot of fun for kids. They grow so quickly that each year feels like a big change. They can invite their friends over to play, eat delicious treats, and open presents (hopefully the new toys they've been wanting). As adults, it seems like some people just don't care about birthdays as much. You aren't growing or changing that much from year to year, and it's…

Getting to reply to your most irritating customer would be a dream come true for many food service workers. Normally if a customer complains about the service, the worker has to fetch their manager and let them handle it, or they have to meet the complaints with a smile and just let the insults roll off their shoulders. However, complaining in an online review leaves some room for creativity, as this server, u/human_ken_doll, found out. This waiter shared a lengthy “review” from a diner who was…

We don't want to think about our waiters and waitresses messing up our meals, but it absolutely happens! Just think about how often you make mistakes---probably at least a few per day or per week, right? Of course, some of these mistakes are worse than others…just ask the servers and hosts who replied to u/princessmeemee's question: “What’s something you did that would make your manager clutch their pearls if they found out?” One person accidentally put balsamic vinegar on vanilla ice cream ins…

One restaurant greeter learned a valuable lesson about how people should treat them in a work setting. When you start your first job, you don't exactly know how you're supposed to be treated by management. Some places yell at their workers, others are passive-aggressive towards them, and others have super strict rules that they stick by no matter what. Your first job teaches you a lot… so by the time you get your second job, you're a little wiser and more experienced. This person was holding tw…

There are some absolutely wild shenanigans happening in these student dorms! Next, take a peek into what kind of mildly infuriating things these local thrift stores are up to, like one that decided “to use staples for clothing tags .”

Is seafood vegan?

Parents: you can't live with ‘em, can’t live without ‘em. You love them dearly, and they know how to get under your skin like no one else. That’s just how family is! It's the reason that a lot of people put up with irritating behavior from their family members, letting them push their boundaries way too far. If you've ever had to share a car with your family members, you know exactly how u/RiskItF0rTheBiscuit's sister was feeling. She writes that she and her Mom were sharing a car already, and…

While on a work trip to the Big Apple, this person decided to do some fancy dining on their workplace's dime. That's quite the perk if you can get it! The food in New York is truly incredible, as any visitor or resident of the city can tell you. You've got to try the pizza of course, but there are tons of sandwich shops and ice cream parlors and a dizzying array of other foods that are delectable. You really can't go wrong! This person was traveling to the city's Theater District , which is ful…

Oh, you have to be at the airport in 90 minutes, but you have time for a sit-down meal at a restaurant? Tell me more. Tell me why you think that's a good choice. International flights can cause long lines to get through security---these notoriously take ages to get through. Oh, you're only 25 minutes from the airport? I'm sure there will be no traffic, red lights, or slow drivers to stop you from getting on your flight. Truly, if you decide to have a sit-down meal outside the airport when you h…

Whoops… these waiters mixed up their words a little bit! It happens to all of us now and again: we mean to say one thing, then think of something else to say, and then combine the two to make one dumb phrase. It's like that scene in Mean Girls when Cady tries to say “great” and then “cool” and ends up with “grool.” Except that these people were waiters, and they were talking to their customers when they made their mistakes. Unlike other service jobs, waiters work for tips from their customers,…

“I thought [it] would be a total non-issue,” this party guest admitted, but they know now that they accidentally committed a party foul.

For single folks, “meal” is such a strong word. Making a “meal” requires time, effort, and possibly a stovetop. When you have a partner, you tend to want to make them beautiful meals with garnishes, or hearty meals that take hours to make (since it's a labor of love). When you're a single dude , though, all bets are off. Any food is a meal if you believe in yourself. Lately, when I don't feel like cooking for my single self, I make “charcuterie dinner.” It includes strawberries, pineapple, a ti…
