No matter how old or young you are, making a spelling mistake has the potential to make you feel like a complete and total buffoon. As someone who writes for a living, I can attest to the fact that I still have that age-old fear of being misunderstood and embarrassed by a grammatical or spelling error. If it happens to you once, you never really forget that feeling. In an ideal world, making these errors should help you think twice before messaging someone or posting something online for the wo…

With the rise of fitness influencer culture on social media, there are all kinds of tips and tricks to stay healthy and feel your best; it's almost intimidating. From eating strict keto diets to tracking your macros and participating in 75 hard (seriously, who comes up with this stuff?), it can feel impossible to keep up with the trends. This guy tracks his food intake to the max, accounting for macros, micros, fiber, calories, and everything else we didn't even know we should be paying attenti…

Ironically, it turns our that texting can lead to some wild miscommunication… If you're a living, breathing human in 2024, you likely have an anecdote of your own that further proves this point. As for me, I cannot say that my text history has been all gone according to plan. I distinctly remember the terror I felt when I sent photos of a crush to that person and tried to cover it up to no avail. I remember texting an old friend who was visiting that I was dreading getting brunch with them, thi…

Every so often, one finds oneself confronting a DIY project so poorly constructed and inconceivably designed that it begs the question: what were they thinking? These baffling moments apply to public places as well. For instance, there are only so many ways to design a functioning public restroom… so why do so many of these bathrooms involve flaws like stall doors that are so exposing that one simply cannot use them? You would think someone would test these out before signing off on the project…

Another week of the grind

It may just be the city that never sleeps because no one wants to miss the next crazy New York moment. No one ever said that New York was the right place for everyone to live. It's too expensive, the people can be intense, and you're more likely to witness something absolutely nuts than something picturesque or romantic. In short, if you're a New Yorker, you know that one moment, you could experience one of those astounding moments of gratitude to be living in such a historic city. But then the…

We've all had a poor experience with fast food at some point. When you get that late-night craving for a burger and fries, the last thing you want is to receive a half-eaten delivery, a major missing ingredient, or uncooked meat. Unfortunately, this is far more common than any of us would like to admit. When it does happen, we hopefully catch it before it's too late… you don't want to discover raw chicken after you bite into your nugget. If you're lucky enough to catch it early, you throw your…

Have you ever seen a sign out in public that caused you to do a double-take and wonder if someone is playing a trick on you? The unique aspect of funny sign errors, when you come across them out in the wild, is that you often will never know what the sign maker's intent was. Perhaps it was an egregious mistake or perhaps they were trying to see if they could get away with a harmless prank. Here's hoping it's the latter because wouldn't we all like to think that humans are more intelligent than…

Who doesn't love a painfully accurate starter pack meme? Sometimes, there is simply no better way to describe a common trope among human beings. You could be describing that kid in high school who asks a question when there are two minutes left of class. You could be describing the entitled parent in your neighborhood who seems to think their kid is the greatest gift to the universe. The key to a quality starter pack meme is a level of perceptiveness regarding the commonalities, the details, an…

When everything goes according to plan, a wedding can become the perfect weekend for anyone attending, but if things go wrong, no one is safe. Part of that is due to our cultural and sociological obsession with the importance of weddings. From the flowers to the venue to the music to the food, there is always going to be something that the bride and groom will obsess over and, because of the random nature of life, not everything is going to be perfect. No matter how many times you may try to re…

Calling fashion an acquired taste is a major understatement when it comes to some of these, shall we say, memorable choices. Look, everyone should be entitled to wear whatever they want whenever they want so long as they are not hurting anyone's feelings in the process. That being said, some trends and looks can be so difficult to look at that one has to wonder who in their right mind thought said trends and looks were good ideas. For regular folks, fashion missteps shouldn't feel that high sta…

When dealing with toxic management, there's nothing like giving them a final surprise before your not-so-gentle departure.

Is anyone else just trying to make enough money to afford DoorDash again? Picture this: you're having a late-night craving for fast food. You probably got a targeted ad from Dominos that caught you in a vulnerable moment, so you couldn't help yourself. Against your better judgment, you order some pizza, cheesy bread, and even some of those chocolate lava cakes for you and your partner on a delivery service app, only to discover that the service fees before tipping make your entire order $20 mor…

Packed with sass and asking for a manager

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

No one ever said being an adult is easy, and while we don't want to admit it, our worst habits can get the better of us sometimes. That's where memes come in to make it all a little less shameful! Now, we often associate pie charts with work, school, and data you come across in a news article that doesn't really make much sense. But what if pie charts were used to reflect, capture, and depict all the cringeworthy and embarrassing realities of what it means to be an adult in the modern age? We'r…
