For once, the ruthless folks of the internet sided with a potentially entitled rich kid. What backward universe are we living in? Well, it turns out the only thing worse than clueless, entitled kids are their clueless, entitled parents. This thread was posted to Reddit's r/AmITheA**hole subreddit by u/Odd_Emotion662 , a young man whose sister got to have an extravagant party for her 18th birthday. Clearly, the original poster got it in his head that when he turned 18, he would get similar treat…

People talk about how the ability to keep a secret is a good personality trait, but isn't it way more fun to hear people spill the beans? It can't be healthy keeping everything inside anyway, so let's just say that confessing your secrets is a mutually beneficial exercise. Obviously, there are instances in which the knowledge you have could affect someone else, so definitely use your judgment. That's why anonymous confessions are even better for everyone involved. These folks let the flood gate…

These people thought they were getting good advice , only to realize years later how wrong the advice was. Relying on trusted friends and family members is how many people get through life. Of course, you trust the judgment of your mom or your best friend… but they aren't always right. Sometimes well-meaning bits of advice can totally miss the mark. Just because dad can dole out some advice that his father gave him in the 1970s, doesn't mean that's useful in today's day and age. Thanks, but no…

Some will say that being the child of a Karen is a character-building experience, although one would imagine most of these kids would beg to differ. They would probably rather be anyone else's child, especially when it comes to family gatherings and all kinds of public interactions with service workers. They would likely tell you that being the child of a Karen is less of a character-building experience and more of a role reversal in which the child has to rein in the parent. Here, we have a ra…

Do parents really give “unconditional” money or is there always “something” attached to it?

Would you vacation with your ex ? Some folks would, some wouldn't. It depends on your relationship with them: can you still trust them, do you still get along, will everyone actually have a good time? These are all good questions to consider. This dude, u/rduncang, writes that their relationship with their ex-wife has changed throughout the years. Things went well in their post-marriage life at first. However, after a few years, the ex's daughter began stealing from the OP (original poster). Th…

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

It has gotten to a point where it is extremely common to hear about neighborhood drama, and about entitled neighbors who think they own everything around them. Some stories are more dramatic than others, but everyone has probably dealt with a demanding neighbor at some point in their lives. That being said, there is one line that a neighbor should never ever cross, and that is taking advantage of elderly people. Like the person in this Reddit post. This man asked his elderly neighbor if he coul…

Here's a little inspiration for your next petty compliment . The next time you need to lightly roast your annoying boss or your unsuspecting aunt, keep a few of these zingers in mind. There are times to be sassy, and times to zip our lips. There might be times you really want to make fun of your boss who constantly sends emails to the wrong person and is always forgetting things at his desk. But you can't just roast him in front of the whole office and risk your career. But there's nothing stop…

Family get-togethers always bring an unnecessary amount of shade and entitlement. As you get older, you only notice it more and more and ti just becomes less and less bearable. That's what food and drink are for. However, this Redditor wasn't even allowed to partake in that because his petty Aunt Karen refused to let him sit at the “adult's table” despite him being a fully-grown man at this point. Instead, he had to six at a table of six years olds once again.

Working at a gas station is quite the experience. I think it's pretty self-explanatory. Let's just say, it's not the end of the world if you get fired. There are plenty of other jobs out there. This person was working at a gas station and had to take a day off following a family emergency. They followed protocol and let their manager know 4 hours prior. The manager's response was somewhat confusing, considering that this employee had followed the rules. First, the manager told them they were go…

Imagine how this employee's wife responded to this guilt-tripping. It probably does not bear repeating, but maternity and paternity leave are an inherent part of workers' rights. We all know that being a parent of someone at any age is a full-time job in and of itself. Being the parent of a newborn is like having five full-time jobs at once, and that does not include someone's actual full-time job. To that end, there is no point, especially in this day and age, in a toxic boss trying to shame a…

It's remarkable the lengths this grandpa went to avoid having to eat green beans. The fact that his distaste for the vegetable became one of the defining characteristics of his personality well beyond his lifespan is also kind of iconic. I could only dream that the future generations of my family will be talking about my disgust for feta cheese. When you consider the personality traits of the people within your family both living and dead, you might begin by listing out their passions and inter…

Time to take a break from your screens for a few hours and enjoy the great outdoors . After spending ten hours a day glued to your iPhone screen, it's so refreshing to take a few hours to reconnect with some trees and grass . It can be so relaxing to hike in the sunshine, breathe in fresh air, and listen to the birds sing and the bugs hum. Hiking itself can also be a rewarding activity. Alongside the exercise, many paths lead up to a gorgeous vantage point or waterfall. However, things don't al…

This family could've saved some money if only they'd listened to the manager of the ski resort. Skiing is a great way to spend a winter day . You head out to the slopes with your skis and goggles and spend time on the bunny hills. Then, once you've warmed up, you can advance to the more difficult ones. At the end of the day, you get to warm up in the ski lodge by the fire. It's perfect! This family felt the same way. U/InQue623, their wife, and their kids tried a day at the ski resort and loved…

Food allergies are no joke, and most of the time, no one treats them as jokes either. Whether it is schools with a ‘no peanuts' policy or gluten-free restaurants, there is so much awareness of food restrictions, that you can pretty much get by even with a life-threatening one. But you have to have a supporting surrounding, and people who are going to make sure you don't eat anything that could be bad for you. This Redditor shared his experience with his food allergy to fin fish and the way his…
