Nowadays, the holidays are a time for family gatherings, drinking (or hating) egg nog, and considerably less murder-by-bears. Apparently before we had the now classic Santa-in-the-red-suit business, people had dancing frogs and turnip-aristocrats. For other surprising old-timey stuff, there's also some cool vintage life-hacks from forever ago.

Someone on AskReddit asked for married couples to share their biggest surprises with their spouses, after getting married. From innocent and quirky little things like leaving the lids unscrewed on jars, to some psycho level compulsive lying. It's really hard to know someone completely, until you've thrown in with them and spent more time together.
We're back at it again with a fresh round of razor-sharp insults that left their targets utterly destroyed. Some people ask for the roasts, while others just desperately need to learn to keep a lid on it in the first place. That all being said, we'll always appreciate a clever insult that just got someone good.
There's a lot of room in this world for failure and misfortune, but sometimes it's healthy to have a little bit of compassion and indulge in some wholesome memes because life isn't always bad. So here are some uplifting and light moments because those exist too.

"The Price is Right" has a strong place in our hearts, probably since it's been what we watched when we were home sick our entire lives. Anyway here are two sadness-inducing overbids that were so close that it feels unfair.
In case you missed it, the "Ok Boomer" meme has been sweeping the various social media outlets like none other. Millennials are clashing with Baby Boomers, and using the memes at their disposal to drive their point home. Many would likely suggest it's all just fun and games. It looks like the younger generations are back at it again with the Baby Boomer banter. This time they're dishing out various bits of ridiculous advice.
Chill vegan/Twitter user @kim_crawley, took it upon herself to break down how silly the lawsuit being made by an angry vegan against Burger King actually is. The angry vegan in question is alleging that Burger King served them a contaminated "Impossible Burger" because they prepare the meal on the same surface as other meat-based meals.
What can we say? Kids are dumb. Growing up, everyone had that kid at school who tried to get away with as much BS as possible. Sometimes a kid tried to convince everyone else he had a pet dinosaur, or that his dad was a secret agent. And since we were all kids and no one knew better, sometimes we'd go on believing these idiotic lies for days before that same kid's dad picked him up from school in his catering truck. Lying to kids seems to be a big part of the human experience, hence these adults who are still salty about the unjust lies they were told as kids. Some people are just dumb and try lying to their healthcare professionals. And some people still try to lie online just for fake internet points.
Some people really just want to watch the world burn. Twitter user @PabloRochat, is going viral after he made life-size stickers of AirPod pros, and proceeded to plan them around the city. Sounds like he had many unprepared pedestrians fooled. We just want the video footage that documents the emotional fallout when people realized they were just trying to pick up stickers.
Someone on AskReddit asked for people to share those times they witnessed the real world give a spoiled rich kid a brutal reality check. It can be hard for some folks to learn that the world isn't there to answer their every wish. Daddy's money can't buy everything.
It might be time to look for a new place to live if this is gonna become a regular thing. Bob, Carol and Angie have a lot to work through. For some crazy roommate stories, here's times people discovered their roommate was a psycho, and here's a guy who battled his terrible subletter who tried to pin him with damages.
@Mattsurelee makes graphs and charts about some of our more relatable challenges. Whether it's taco Tuesday or talking to your parents on the phone, he's probably broken it down in a visually funny way. For something similar, here are some silly and stupid terrible maps.
The Northumberland Heath Police were the subject of sharp tongues and verbal jabs after confiscating what looks to be like a prop sword for a play and taking it way too seriously. Commenters were brutal, as they usually are when it comes to roasting ancient weaponry, like when Facebook users roasted this guy's ancient gun into the last century.
