holidays

Happy Valentine's Day, everyone. Maybe. We assume nothing. Anyways. People have always been churning out roasts. The dedicated masters of the proper roast, take no days off. This history student, Rosie White, shared a Twitter thread that points out how Victorian Valentine's Day cards were basically passive aggressive roasts. Beautiful. Great for the people you deem most special in your life. 

Someone on AskReddit asked for people to share their experiences with Valentine's Day fails. The "holiday" can generate quite the buildup of anticipation. With all that pressure that can go into engineering the "perfect" Valentine's Day date, the tense environment can be ripe for fails. These people did not have things exactly work out in their favor. 

Not everyone's NYE went smoothly. This guy found himself in quite the predicament, after a little trip down to Mexico for the miles. Thankfully, the kindness of perfect strangers helped him out in a miraculous kind of way. 

We should all aspire to be on the same level as spite cow Dad. 

This guy asked the people of Reddit whether or not he was in the wrong for buying his wife a Roomba for Christmas, that she clearly didn't take a liking too. The thing about this meltdown, is it seems like there'a whole lot more going on between these two than an unwanted Roomba. 

This dad decided to share a hilarious, dark-humored video of his son seemingly converting to the "Dark Side" in a matter of 10 seconds. I mean, seriously. That kid must've held onto the lightsaber for 10 seconds before he made up his mind on going to the dark side. 

We've entered a strange and dreamlike time of the year, folks. Yes, that infamous twilight zone between Christmas and the New Year. Many are coming down off the highly anticipated holiday of the year, where gifts are exchanged and family members are sometimes packed into tight quarters to play nice and exchange war stories from the last year. And then it passes, and you're left twiddling your thumbs waiting for the year to wrap up. Might as well sit back and enjoy the ride, and the days off if you have 'em!

What started with a typo in a Sears ad the led straight to a phone at the North American Aerospace Defense Command, the dudes there just kinda rolled with it. In a similar vein, recently Vets on Facebook responded to a question about Santa's reindeer.

This dad wasn't going to settle for giving his kids cash in the old fashioned way of slipping a few dollar bills in a card, or maybe even just giving them cash. No, he insisted on getting more creative with things. Queue up the awesome packaging that made these cash gifts look like gifts he bought in the store. 

Christmas can really take it out of you. If you have uncooperative family members, forcing everyone into the same room with a whole lot of expectations and spiked eggnog can be a recipe for a real bad Christmas. There were a lot of reasons to have a bad Christmas, and it can be way worse than just getting a weird gift.

Tis the season for holiday greetings from the folks that people just don't want to hear from, ever again. These exes refused to get the message, and proceeded to bother their old partners with a slew of clueless texts. I mean, come on guys!

Kids are weird and dumb. Sometimes they get really specific thoughts stuck in their head and given the choice to ask for anything they could ever want, will choose to ask for something like a box of kleenex or a really old pug. Here are some strange experiences for the holiday season.

These parents decided to go out and have themselves a nice old-fashioned drunken time. Unfortunately, things got a little away from the dad and he ended up accidentally flushing an elf down the toilet when they got home! From there it got even worse, cause the toilet got clogged, and now the kids are worried about Santa not showing up! 

Twitter users are sharing their best elf on the shelf replacements, and these are all kinds of outlandish. Some are even borderline terrifying. 

Tis the season for people busting out the very best and worst of their ugly holiday sweaters. Some of these just hurt to look at. While others are so bad that it's actually impressive.
