humor

Twitter user @PrismaticWastes decided to enlighten the world about how asymmetrical shopping mall maps actually translate beautifully for megadungeon maps. When you think about it, it makes sense. Malls are pretty much designed to make shoppers stay as long as humanly possible. Apparently college campus and zoo maps are also viable options. 

There are plenty of folks out there who have made nothing less of an art form out of donning different masks for different settings, with the ultimate purpose being to impress/manipulate those around them. It can get to be a pretty messed up situation. With that being said, this AskReddit thread has folks sharing the craziest, coolest things they were able to pull off just by pretending to fit in. 

If you get a job in the service industry it's not totally out of the question that you might encounter some testy characters that are determined to make everyone else's lives a bit more miserable and uncomfortable, simply because they absolutely despise their own jobs. You can develop quite the thick skin, and spicy banter to boot, if you work long enough in the industry. You learn how to let the infuriating interactions with entitled customers not totally get to you, while you juggle various rare insults from your fellow coworkers. It can be quite the scene. It sounds like these dudes were eventually able to squash their beef and some kind of friendship developed as a result. 

There are whole lot of hopelessly clueless human beings out there. Some folks are certainly more lost than others. You might find yourself in the middle of a conversation with someone who has seemingly fallen through the cracks on all matters of common sense. If so, you might just find yourself inspired to whip out one of these clever euphemisms to get that point across. 

This tech support tale has just the right amount of humor in it. It's a nice break from the typical scenarios involving poor tech support employees having to deal with all kinds of wildly entitled Karens and other aggressively inconsiderate customers. In this case though, it's a mere situation involving a company prankster who decided that they'd play around with some keyboard keys to create chaos in the workplace. Those employees must've felt like they were enduring some kind of glitch in the matrix moment. For another tech support tale check out the time that a lazy manager got caught lying, and then how an employee ended up getting promoted. 

This isn't the first time that we've seen someone in a position of power let all that intoxicating authority get to their heads, and we sure doubt it'll be the last time. It sounds like this building manager was just asking for a bit of a wakeup call. Fortunately, the fire marshal had the presence of mind to give it to him. And just picturing the rest of the people that were subjected to that infuriatingly long fire drill, rally around to vocalize their complaints is really something special. 

This is such a wild scenario that we're not even sure if it's totally accurate to just call the mom in this story "entitled." Like, she is far out there, man. The whole element in the story where she's apparently been taking the money her husband has been giving her for babysitting, is just a tad bit ridiculous as well. Like, what's really going on over there? With all that being said, we're just grateful that the dramatic, stressful saga was eventually able to be resolved when everything came to light, and the husband learned about what had been going on. The nerve of some people truly blows the mind. 

It's funny and enlightening Tumblr threads like the one we have here that can effectively shine a light on just how hilariously different, people's habits can end up being. In this case, we're dealing with a series of different, occasionally wildly unacceptable bed positions. Some people set their bed up to feel safe as possible. Some people are like Thomas Jefferson, and apparently from another planet. If this Tumblr thread got you going, check out some more random and funny Tumblr gems over here. 

It's far too easy to take for granted just how strangely spelled some of the words in the English language are. The weird spellings themselves can end up making for quite the hassle for when it comes time to actually say the words out loud. Seriously though, have we just accepted that desert and dessert are actually spelled wrong? 

We've all seen a mad lad storm that social media feed like a bull in a china shop. They light up an otherwise peaceful comments section with bullish bravado and their fiery antics. If you enjoyed these instances of dudes being verified mad lads, check out some more mad lads who were the maddest baddest lads over here.

Anyone who has ever worked a customer service job knows that the gig comes with all kinds of emotional hardships that fall well outside the pay grade. You could be having a perfectly peaceful day, maybe even somehow in a good mood as you're stocking shelves, and then boom, a Karen walks in. A Karen who has taken it upon herself to completely upend your day with all kinds of nasty, entitled, toxic nonsense. Hopefully none of these infamous incidents from retail workers ring any bells for you. 

We're not sure what was going through this Karen's head. To have the nerve to literally expect your kid to be able to just steal another kid's toys, just because, escapes all rhyme and reason. It sounds like the dude on the other end of this put her in her place, and it wasn't the first time -- nor will it be the last time. Some folks are hurting for the reality check more than others.
