Don't get mad, get even! That's clearly the motto of these folks, who were able to whip out some hilarious zingers on the spot. Some folks are just naturally hilarious. They can turn any conversation into a laugh riot, and the more you hang around with them, the more you pick up on their sense of humor. Up next, this person's dad really dislikes his brother, and he chose the worst time possible (the middle of a wedding!) to make an “extremely embarrassing announcement” about his own kid.

No vacation ends up going according to plan. Sometimes, what tarnishes the experience of a trip is completely out of your hands. Recently on a trip to London, my partner and I discovered while about to board our return flights that our flight was overbooked and our assigned seats were merely taken as a request. We ended up not getting seats on that flight and found ourselves temporarily stranded abroad at the end of what would have been the first trip of mine to go according to plan. We should…

We've all had a poor experience with fast food at some point. When you get that late-night craving for a burger and fries, the last thing you want is to receive a half-eaten delivery, a major missing ingredient, or uncooked meat. Unfortunately, this is far more common than any of us would like to admit. When it does happen, we hopefully catch it before it's too late… you don't want to discover raw chicken after you bite into your nugget. If you're lucky enough to catch it early, you throw your…

When people get tattoos , they often consider what they love and cherish, and avoid thinking about the opinions of others. That's all well and good; if an art piece is forever inked onto your body, you should love it with all your heart. But there's an asterisk here: you should love it, because people are going to ask about it constantly. If you have a name, people will ask who that is. If you have a symbol or a little animal, people will ask what that means. It's the kind of experience you won…

Unforgettable boy's trip

Have you ever seen a sign out in public that caused you to do a double-take and wonder if someone is playing a trick on you? The unique aspect of funny sign errors, when you come across them out in the wild, is that you often will never know what the sign maker's intent was. Perhaps it was an egregious mistake or perhaps they were trying to see if they could get away with a harmless prank. Here's hoping it's the latter because wouldn't we all like to think that humans are more intelligent than…

If an employer expects their employees to respect the schedule by always arriving at their shifts and always being on time, then they should show the same level of respect to the employees' time and schedule. That means that canceling shifts for employees “just because” is not a valid excuse and is definitely not respectable, especially if they cancel someone's shift only 10 minutes before it is supposed to start, causing the employee to still go through their commute. We believe that the emplo…

These people are just out here living with their incorrect assumptions about life. Someone jokingly tells you something one time, and if it's not corrected, you just mistakenly believe this thing for years until someone corrects you! The people answering u/ButterflyOverkill's question know a person or two who's exactly like that. This person asked people to spill the “most ridiculous thing you've heard someone say that they were 100% serious about.” Judging from the more than 4,800 people who r…

Need a quick and easy way to stick-it to your mother-in-law? Well, here ya go!

justice = served

Getting fired within your first week or two of starting a new gig takes effort. You have to be so wildly unfit for the role that no one will take the chance to train you. There are a few thousand people who witnessed some of the worst first days of work ever , and they're telling the stories in the r/AskReddit community. Up next, these people have some interesting dating preferences, like one person who insists, “ Their date must have the same brand of toothpaste preference .”

We're constantly spammed with emails. Our work emails, our personal emails, and those inboxes we still have from the early 2000s with the embarrassing email address names that we can't seem to delete are all constantly filled with spam. When you buy something from a company nowadays, you have to be prepared to receive email promotions from them for the rest of your life, no matter how many times you try to unsubscribe. Even when you just do a quick search of a product, it's like you're sudden...

Graphic design is not these people's passion. And that's okay! They're just regular people making regular signs, for reasons such as “don't park in front of this trash can.” Oh wait… we also have a few professional signs in here too. They're quite hard to read, yet they can be found in restaurants or in advertisements. I think sometimes the graphic designers will make a sign, and their client keeps picking at it. They want it to be prettier or more attention-grabbing. So the artist reworks it a…

What would you do if you were so overworked at your workplace but your manager kept denying your request for a raise? We would imagine that most people would understand that they should not overwork themselves in that place of work, and start looking for a new job. While the employee in this Reddit story also started looking for a new job when they were denied a raise, they took it one step further and requested a demotion. That is how OP (original poster) went from being the supervisor of thei…

Having a guest in your house can easily feel like a boundary has been crossed, but these house guests really overstayed their welcome. Some of them violated clearly defined rules and regulations, while others made the kinds of unfathomable choices that no host could have predicted. These stories range from entitled mothers-in-law (yes, there were multiple anecdotes about in-laws) who rearranged the kitchen cabinet without permission to visitors who used the laundry machines far too many times u…

Everyone wants to know what tricks they can use to try and rig the system, especially if it means they can save money. It doesn't matter who is on the other side of that exchange, as long as you come out better on the other side, right? Well, no. As fun as it can be to find little ways to “save” money, there is a clear line between using acceptable little tricks to spend less money or get better deals, and actually lying and cheating others. The hotel guest in this Reddit story tried to rig the…
