It warms our hearts to see so much time, technical skill and effort put into something whose only function is to shut itself off.

Who needs an adequate replacement part when you have a whole bunch of junk lying around? These folks have made some bad but awesome low budget solutions to solve their problems without breaking the bank. Some of these low budget fixes and diy solutions are extremely bad ideas, but here they are.
People get very crafty with their low budget DIY solutions. It's not stupid if it works. It might be ugly, dangerous, illegal, and admittedly pretty stupid, but if it works it works. But hey, what do you do if you want a ride on lawn mower and you don't have the cash to buy one? You resort to a masterful low budget DIY solution.
Oh man, the apprentice engineer's gross level of entitlement was their ultimate undoing. If the young lad had just gone about doing business in a way that was mindful and respectful of those around him, well, then maybe he wouldn't have been ditched the 250 miles from home. Just picturing the kid having to call up his dad to come and get him at 3 in the morning, for a 500-mile-round trip is pure entertainment.
Why would you ever buy a pan, basketball hoop or unnecessary shower head when you have a can-do attitude and don't mind having to explain your surroundings constantly. These masterful low budget DIY solutions can magically turn junk into useful items, even if they kind of look horrible and don't exactly work right. What can we say but resourceful DIY solutions have our respect.
There are wise people among us who are frugal and decent with tools. These masters of DIY solutions have our respect. And while some of us don't like the idea of using a beer can as a shower head, you have to admit that it's not stupid if it works.

This kid was blown away by the realization that his dad was driving the passing train. A pretty cool moment!
We've seen stories of big company owners tripping over their own hubris, like this incompetent owner who mistakenly fired a special contractor, and this time there's more math. This guy gives an extremely detailed account of exactly how a whole bunch of water, a valve, and an overly zealous farm owner gave himself the business.
It's time for the revenge story of the week, and man, is this one a treat. This entitled sound engineer got what was coming his way. It sounds like he was just the kind of presumptuous brat that needed a wakeup call. Fortunately, the crew he worked with and generally drove insane was more than ready to give it to him. And boy oh boy, did that wakeup call come in a brutal fashion. We're talking the guy getting ditched hundreds of miles from home, and eventually having to get picked up by his dad!

As funny as it is to see a guy be this excited about a train, it's also really nice to see someone who's genuinely brimming with childlike glee over something that they're genuinely interested in. When was the last time you freaked out on video over anything? Go forth and be free, like Excited Train Guy.
Sometimes it's funny to laugh at other people's misery. I don't know where that comes from, but it's a part of human nature that I accept. That's why this thread on Twitter is absolutely hilarious. This guy really suffers when he learns about the imperial system. Take a deep breath, bro. It is all going to work out. This is a good and enlightening development for you.
