Sometimes, you have to put your foot down because of the principle of the matter and not because of details. This Redditor had been selling numerous household items on Marketplace only to repeatedly be taken advantage of by potential online buyers. The pattern was common. The two would message back and forth, a specific price would be agreed upon, and when they finally met up to exchange the item(s) for the agreed-upon price, suddenly the buyer did not have sufficient funds. The Redditor would…

Dive into the world of the hilarious Facebook marketplace fails! If you're familiar with the platform, you know that most of the listings consist of typical furniture items and clothing, you know, normal things you'd find at a second-hand store. But it's also Facebook. So you have to be prepared for the random one-off listings that you can't tell if the seller is serious or just trying to make a joke. Either way, it keeps you entertained for long enough until you find yourself doom-scrolling...

Since the dawn of newer social media sights, Facebook has had to up its game. It used to just be them and Myspace competing on connecting friends online, and we all know who won that race. (We think Tom won because he grabbed his bag and got out. We miss you, Tom! A friend to all.) Now, there are several extremely popular social media sites on the web and Facebook is struggling to catch up. It is now known to be a social media site for older folks. And with older folks inevitably comes some hil…

Social media doesn't come easily to every person. Some people take forever to learn how to upload Instagram pictures or navigate X (formerly known as Twitter). And some people haven't even left Facebook ! Even in current year, when many of us have moved on from Facebook to more current social media sites, there's still a big population who are enjoying the site. Whenever I scroll through good ole Facebook , I see more and more people using avatars in their statuses (see #1 for an example). They…

There is a strange thing that happens to people when they get engaged. They seem to develop a strong case of main character syndrome almost as soon as a ring appears on their finger. This entitled bride tried to pressure an Instagram user with the same name to give up her handle, which the user refused to do because she heard she could get banned by doing that (a totally fair reason). What's particularly entertaining about this Karen is how quickly she went from being slightly audacious to biza…

A family is a place where you can always be yourself, imperfections and all. It's a secure haven. Nevertheless, every family has a unique set of issues that they would have rather kept private, especially in this day and age of social media, where one click may have a profound impact on someone's entire life. The story that follows is an account of a frustrated sister. The twenty-one-year-old Original Poster (OP) has made the decision to reconnect with her long-lost half-sister. To put things i…

We now have a family rule that my mom can’t blog about anyone else without permission

One of the most challenging types of Karens undoubtedly has to be the workplace Karens. Enduring their wrath all day can be exhausting, and sometimes it feels like there's nothing you can do about it. Unless, of course, you're like this fortunate OP. Initially, she got along with Karen when she was first hired, but that facade quickly faded after the OP made a comment about dogs that rubbed Karen the wrong way, triggering her desire for revenge.

Playground logic persists in adulthood in many ways. There's always a king of the hill, some kid with glasses getting annihilated on the dodgeball court, and a snarky class clown running around screaming ‘nana-nana-boo-boo’! When you're at odds with another ‘kid’ on the blacktop, the mature thing to do is walk away and let it go. But in a world that's not so different from Lord of the Flies, sometimes the only way to get proper payback is to stoop down to your bully's level

Everyone has a thing or two that gets under their skin . For a surprising amount of people, that thing is “breathing.” So many people left thoughtful and interesting replies to our Facebook post asking, “What's something other people do that you find really cringy?” And many people replied that “breathing” and “eating” really bothered them. I understand---some people just breathe kind of loudly or in a whistly manner, and they're not usually aware of that. They're not even doing anything wrong!…

We could not be rolling our eyes any harder at these moments that will make you facepalm. The internet is forever, no matter what you do. Thanks to internet archives, even if you delete something, it's still likely to float around the internet every now and again. For example, I imagine the person who posted about a “leaf” found in their burrito bowl wishes they didn't Tweet about it. That's because even though they thought this was your average everyday outside leaf, it was not. It's a bay lea…

If you take off your socks and shoes during your flight, that should count as an automatic ban from the airline. Unless you're a child---like a toddler, no one over age like 7---there's no need for you to be airing out your piggy toes mid-flight. As an adult, you should be able to wait a few hours while wearing shoes. Many adults wear shoes for 8 or 10 hours during work days, and often times even longer. So why does getting on a plane suddenly inspire so many people to get comfy by airing out t…

Low key, there are literally so many words that technically we don't need to use.

Money isn't everything… no, I take that back, it is everything. Money is perhaps 80% of life. People who already have money absolutely love to tell you that “Money isn't everything.” If you're a lonesome lawyer working 90 hours per week who never sees their family, like in a Hallmark movie, than I guess that makes sense. But for most of us, who do have loving family and friends and a moral compass, having an injection of cash would make life a whole lot easier! When you have money, you can get…

We love when local Karens make up rules for the whole community to follow that simply do not exist. It's as if they live in their own tiny little universe where every thought that comes into their brain is not only factual but law . We've seen this situation transpire before with Karens involved in HOAs or neighbors who have ridiculous standards and procedures for everyone else to follow. In this scenario, which was posted to Reddit's r/F***YouKaren subreddit, we have a Karen whose daughter was…

If there's one takeaway from this guy's experience, it's never give something away for free. Sure, you might be doing it out of the kindness of your heart and goodwill for mankind (plus a healthy dose of not being bothered moving it yourself), but all the word “free” does is dredge up the worst sorts of people. If you post something for free on an online marketplace you're just going to be bombarded with entitled people looking to take advantage of your goodwill. Getting that single item that y…
