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.

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…

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…

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 .”

Customer service workers , you're doing the world a favor every time you politely answer the silliest question you've ever heard. They won't train you for this in most customer-facing roles. You think that customers will more or less know what's going on… but that's not the case. In fact, it seems like many jobs just require the worker to answer the same customer questions over and over and over. Some customers are special, though. They're so confused that their questions make the workers pause…

When it comes to the pizza delivery driver who was fired because he couldn't find the house and just ate their pizza order instead… I understand where he's coming from. I'm not saying he did the right thing, because there's a family out there who ordered pizza and didn't get it. I just think he's relatable: it's hard to follow directions sometimes, and it's easy to get lost, and well, pizza is tasty. He probably got paid for one shift, and got to eat a free pizza in the meantime. He's an agent…

One person realized their spouse wasn't that bright when they declared, “I thought we could just buy tickets at the airport on the day we leave.” Their spouse literally thought that showing up at the airport, bag in hand, with no ticket, would still get them on a plane with any certainty. Only if they're lucky would they wind up on an aircraft! And that person isn't the only one who's been a bit surprised at their significant other's intelligence deficits… At least 14,000 people had stories to…

If you've been the victim of your older sibling telling you a falsehood you believed for decades, you may be entitled to compensation. Surely these people must've had that experience, since a lot of them grew up believing things like “horses lay eggs” or “stare into the sun." If not for an older sibling messing with their head, maybe some people just didn't pay attention in school, or were misled by some kind of movie or TV show. There are clearly lots of reasons why someone might not be knowle…

Some people are blissfully unaware of the world they live in. If they've lived a sheltered life, they may not know about the ordinary things that lots of people deal with on a daily basis. If you've ever had a friend who makes more money than you, maybe you already know this feeling. Naturally, no friend group is all going to be making the same exact salary. Some people in the friend group are probably just paying rent and living paycheck to paycheck in a lifestyle with no frills. Meanwhile, th…

What's worse than having an awkward first date at a restaurant? Having one at a funeral.

While planning your potluck dinner , be sure to invite the right friend group! Maybe invite the friends whose homes you've eaten in before, or those who claim to be great cooks already. If you invite the wrong people—the kind who ignore safety protocols or just have zero idea what they're doing in the kitchen—you may wind up giving your whole party food poisoning. You should still invite your friends who can't cook , but just tell them to bring a dessert. That's pretty hard to mess up! Unless y…

I bet there's a phrase that instantly cracks you up. It's probably just a few words—a reference to a place or a person—that instantly reminds you of a funny situation in your life. When you hear that magic phrase, you'll get the giggles uncontrollably, and if your friends are nearby, good luck trying to stop laughing for the next few hours. Getting the giggles is one of the best feelings in life… unless you happen to be at a funeral, or a play, or a serious wedding speech. You know, one of thos…

Bold is the coworker who calls out, then posts their beach day to their Instagram story. Why people do this baffles the mind. Why would you call out of work sick and then go out on the town, leaving a digital footprint behind you? Or worse still, the person goes out to their own workplace, as if their boss will welcome them with a big smile instead of a writeup . The bosses of Reddit decided to reveal the craziest things that their worst employees ever did in response to u/RoryC's question. The…

These legal fights have gotten unbelievably petty. It turns out that you can hire a lawyer to fight for you to get back almost any belonging from your ex, including tiny things like shower curtains or door knobs. Who knew?! Going through a divorce is never ideal, and having to split up your belongings after years of sharing everything can be a lengthy process. The lawyers who replied to u/ChronicWatcher1456's question have some stories to tell… A surprising amount of them have found themselves…

Have you ever been mistaken for an employee at a random store? These people have, and they've remembered every awkward detail about the encounter. The color of your shirt can make your fellow shoppers think you're an employee , and it's mutually embarrassing when this happens. You obviously don't want to dress like an employee on purpose. And the other person certainly doesn't want to accost a random person and accuse them of being an employee. It can result in some cringy moments that'll haunt…

Home is where the heart is, and it's also where all of your strangest belongings remain. No one knows this better than folks who have jobs that require them to randomly step foot inside people's homes , often with very little warning. Say, for example, a plumber. Maybe your shower isn't draining or your toilet just won't work. You have to call the plumber, and there's usually a set timeframe during which they'll show up to solve your issues. But for some reason, people won't clean up their home…
