gross

Someone on AskReddit asked for food workers to divulge their tips for what menu items customers would be served well to avoid. Apparently the baked cod at Long John Silvers is a whole steaming mess of bad news. 

Tumblr can get, shall we say, overly specific. The nature of the site, and the people on it, can lead to some deep rabbit holes, like this tumblr users getting schooled on physics and car safety, or really specific and fun history. Anyway, this cranberry bog discussion led to a story about the not-so-obvious spider consequences of working in a flooded bog full of swimming spiders.

We'll never understand people who can tolerate themselves being a gross inconvenience to the people around them. Knowing that your feet smell and refusing to put your shoes on on a plane is some trashy behavior. This guy pulled the ol' switcheroo on ol' stinkfoot. We're fans of sweet revenge, like this guy who shut his telemarketers down in person.

R/TwoSentenceHorror combines the satisfaction of a twist ending with the succinctness of all of us with horrible short attention spans. Here are more two sentence horror stories that are as succinct as they are spooky.

People have some really dumb freak injuries, but few of them find themselves proving it. One thing that might be exaggerated here is that an old nurse who has seen everything probably wouldn't be too phased by seeing this kind of gross shit.

Laser tag isn't something adults tend to think about too much anymore, but for a few years there, it was probably the coolest thing you could do. It was like a real life video game in a dark room covered in neon foam and fog. And they always had that weird smell. It seems like it sucks working at a laser tag place, so if you have a similar job, here are some work memes to help get through the grind. People who work at escape rooms also have to deal with weird stuff.

Here are just a bunch of observed food crimes, as well as really horrible ideas to get you kicked out of the break room. People can be very particular about food, and a small mistake will make you like wildly out of place. People have witnessed some food atrocities, and in turn, sometimes people get a food wrong but carry on with it anyway.

Most people are on a general course of self improvement, trying to be more kind, sympathetic, and generally productive. Then there's also folks who just choose to make things harder for other people, and do trashy things that belong in a landfill. Extreme trashiness can come from every level of society.

Everyone knows the most fun facts are about morbid history and animal genitals. Some of these are just plain interesting, some are amazingly gross while others are sad and damning. If it gets to be too much there's also some happy facts to hopefully counteract all the messed up ones.

Imgur user Hymeria told some misadventures from working at a movie theater. Honestly, there are too many stories of entitled customers and various terrible customers being kicked out for their nonsense. Working with the general public allows you to meet incredibly nice people, but also the most petty, entitled and miserable people in the world.

Someone on AskReddit asked for chefs to share the red flags that customers should keep a critical eye out for, while eating out. The following insights serve as a guide for how to avoid a potentially high risk, food poisoning situation. Gotta watch out for those dirty soda dispenser nozzles, man. 

Lucky for us, most people are basically respectful. When we see outdoor furniture at a restaurant our first instinct isn't to take it all. When we find our seat on an airplane we don't immediately take off our shoes and throw our feet over the chair in front of us. That's most of us. But there are some among us whose selfishness and general lack of decency results in trashy moments that are frankly amazing to see. Extreme trashiness can be found in every level of society, and all walks of life.

You expect a certain amount of courtesy from hotel staff, and the staff expects some level of decorum from you. That said, it seems that over time, people who work in hotels tend to expect less and less from their customers. These people who worked in hotels and casinos have seen some interesting things. For a darker side, here are some of the saddest things casino workers saw on the job.

What was going to be a fun Airbnb weekend turned into what basically ended up as a stay in a haunted house except all the ghosts are shit. We've had underwhelming vacations but few of them culminated in an evacuation over the great Pississippi. Sounds bad. And in classic timeline-style recounting! For more gross stuff, here's twitter's reaction to a bull semen explosion.

It's always good to remind yourself that people are mostly decent. Like, most people just want to get through their day and actually feel a sense of guilt when they inconvenience people. That said, people will have their extremely trashy moments where they steal flowers from random graves and try selling stolen used lingerie on Facebook. All you can do with that kind of selfish trashiness is just look at it in awe.
