When in doubt, call your grandma!

Why is it that money tends to be one of the leading causes of family drama?

This resident's step-grandmother deserves a shoutout! After all, she had the chutzpah and the audacity to confront her step-grandkid's Karen neighbor after she repeatedly treated him like poorly and thought she could get away with it. Thankfully, the kid had a secret weapon: his 82-year-old arthritic relative. For some more backstory, the Karen next door had a habit of actively dumping debris into the Redditor's garden. She also would get frustrated at the original poster (OP) for parking his c…

Some people will find any excuse to throw a party . In the office, that can be cause for some eye-rolling! Sure, it's nice to show up to the office to see some free food, or to briefly celebrate a coworker's newest achievement in life. But some offices are constantly throwing parties that no one really asked for, and it can really start eating up the employees' valuable time. It's one thing if there's an HR person or office manager planning things. But it's a whole other story if the employees…

Sometimes you just have to cut people out of your life for good.

This grandmother is putting her foot down.

Another day, another family drama. One person, who we'll call OP, shared an entertaining story about their upstairs neighbors who got even with a family member of theirs who took it one step too far. OP lived in an apartment complex with two-story buildings and shared outdoor stairwells. Their upstairs neighbors were seemingly calm, chill people to whom they said hello once in a while. One day, OP's peaceful reading session was shattered by a commotion - shouts, running, pure family hysteria. E…

Living with your parents as an adult can be frustrating, but living with your crazy grandmother is a whole other story. Perhaps your grandparents are kind, lovely, respectful people, and you wouldn't run into any problems with them if they were your roommates. If that's you, congratulations! You are one of the lucky ones. Unfortunately, this woman cannot claim her roomie experience with granny to be a pleasant one.

Few things are more sinister, in an everyday sort of way, than those people who try to pass damaged goods off as being without problem, preying on the trusting, unsuspecting, or unlucky in order to turn an incredibly unscrupulous profit. These used car sellers, house flippers, and scam artists can be found hiding in plain sight—trying to pass some painted cabinets, cheap laminate wood flooring, and a sloppier paint job off as a “full renovation”—or selling a car “without issue” on Marketplace o…

‘Your granny is a petty revenge master’

This kiddo is all but guaranteed to wake up with coal in her stocking next Christmas. Every generation eventually finds themselves wondering about the kids these days. They're living out such a different version of childhood than the one you had while growing up. No matter which generation you're from, you probably spent it in entirely different ways than someone who's 20 or 30 years your senior. Older generations grew up in an era where you spent all day outside, and when televisions had three…

Talk about an American Hoarder Story! This grandkid is a saint for finding just the right way to clean his grandmother's refrigerator, which was filled with expired food, without getting her frustrated. By planting one food item she despised in the fridge, she texted him to clean the fridge. She meant to just clean out the one item, but this Redditor took it upon himself to clean out the whole fridge and then some. He shared his story via this thread on Reddit's r/MaliciousCompliance subreddit.…

This college is not a fan of “meaninglessly easy” courses, so they put some rules in place to halt them. However, this posed a problem for this professor, Paul, whose students actually did too well in their college class. U/Positive-Character98 shared a story to the r/MaliciousCompliance community. The story belongs to the professor at their college,

Behold: one of the greatest examples of malicious compliance ever told. This Grandma's commitment to stubbornness is truly unmatched. Back in the 1950s, things were much different than they are now in almost every way. Back then, stereotypical gender roles were in full force, with women getting married, having lots of children, and running a household while raising the kiddies. Meanwhile, the man of the house would work a job. That's it. But that was considered the men's responsibility. Back th…

Some people think there are only two types of people on the world: Scammers and suckers. The scammers do the scamming and take advantage of everybody and anybody, that especially includes your elderly grandma who is just trying to buy a car. However, that is a horrible way to look at like and if you do that, you are going to get some instant karma in some way—perhaps in some ultimate epic petty revenge. A Redditor recently shared a story of their elderly grandma getting scammed and then his unc…

Bad behavior and a lack of communication should not be rewarded. If you made your bed, you gotta lie in it. Those are the rules, simply put. You can't expect people to ‘forgive and forget', this isn't a Hallmark movie. Some parents rendered their parental rights when giving their kids up for adoption. And I'm not just talking about legal ones. Yet, much like those pesky spam emails that keep showing up in your inbox, those 3 am calls from a regretful ex, and those forever skyrocketing bills you…
