Going to the movie theater is all fun and games until you remember you have to deal with the general populace while there. For many people, having a night at the movies is the perfect way to view the newest blockbuster. There's nothing like the feeling of entering the theater and smelling that strong popcorn scent. You get your tickets and snacks , then make your way to your seat to watch a bunch of trailers. (Some people don't like watching trailers, but I think it's a good way to get your mon…

A few months back, a woman’s next-door neighbor, Karen, decided to start teaching yoga classes in her backyard. At first, it seemed harmless enough—just a few mats by the fence. But soon, the “backyard” yoga sessions started creeping over into her neighbor’s lawn. Before long, Karen’s entire group of yogis was taking over half of her neighbor’s yard every Saturday morning. When the neighbor politely asked Karen to keep her classes to her own side, Karen just laughed, saying, “It’s all one big...

These birthday celebrators didn't get exactly what they wanted from the bakery … Even when you go to the most expensive bakery in town, you still might wind up with a weird cake. Sometimes the flowers look a little strange, or the writing on the cake is so cursive-y that it can barely be read. Just ask the people below, who shared their funniest and worst cake mistakes with the internet. Up next, this lawyer was told by the law partners at their firm to prioritize “quantity over quality,” but t…

It's that time of year once again! It's time to dress up for Halloween, carve some pumpkins , eat some pumpkin pie, pick some apples, and rake the leaves off your lawn. The weather is cooling down while we're heating up a mug of apple cider. For many people, autumn is a perfect time of year: not too hot nor too cold, and full of fun activities for the whole family. However, these people have had a few mildly infuriating things happen to them. One all-too-common gripe was people carving pumpkins…

These people are raising their eyebrows at some recent thrift store finds. They're not surprised at the great deals… instead, they're annoyed at the condition of the stores and the prices of the items! Thrift shopping or antique shopping can be very hit or miss. Sometimes you find excellent clothing, a barely-worn pair of shoes, or some toys for the kids that are still in great condition. Instead of spending hundreds at a regular store, you can get some cheap stuff and feel good about saving th…

These people just want to work out , but they're having trouble due to… the other people at the gym. Going to the gym can be really motivating. You can go with a friend so that you can talk while you work out. Some people like to go alone and listen to a podcast while they run or some music while they lift weights. There's often a community of dedicated gymgoers who come in every morning or night hoping to become healthier. But it's not all fun and games, because some people are not versed in g…

Make sure to read those online reviews before you book a hotel . It might save you some time and money! Or, like these people below, it might spare you the myriad issues that can occur in a hotel, from bedbugs to awful breakfast menus. I feel for the staffers at the “pool room” hotel (see #2). As you can see in the photo, there's a pool table on top of what looks like a covered-up swimming pool. The staffers must constantly have angry guests yelling about the pool room not having a pool. They c…

Are you ever influenced by social media stars ? For most of us, scrolling through the socials is something we do casually as we chill out on the couch. But for social media influencers , drawing your eyes to their content is a full-time job that they take incredibly seriously. The behind-the-scenes lives of influencers is fascinating stuff. Much like peeking behind the scenes of a movie set to see greenscreens and stunt performers, looking behind the curtain at Instagram content creators is als…

Next up, these people quit their jobs on the spot , like one person who told a coworker, “I refuse to be talked to like that.”

Time to take a break from your screens for a few hours and enjoy the great outdoors . After spending ten hours a day glued to your iPhone screen, it's so refreshing to take a few hours to reconnect with some trees and grass . It can be so relaxing to hike in the sunshine, breathe in fresh air, and listen to the birds sing and the bugs hum. Hiking itself can also be a rewarding activity. Alongside the exercise, many paths lead up to a gorgeous vantage point or waterfall. However, things don't al…

These people had a few irritating moments , and they took to the internet to share their misfortunes. From botched milkshakes to busted suitcases, people had a variety of issues to start of the new year . This milkshake of nightmares (#2 below) nearly choked the OP. That's because whoever made the beverage added in all the ingredients, and then blended it together with another cup and a straw still inside! The result is a shredded straw coated with shards of plastic. There's just no reason a cu…

When you have an annoying few moments , don't let it ruin your whole day.

Instead, do what these folks did: share your mildly infuriating moment with the internet. Misery loves company, and there's plenty of different infuriating moments that people have brought to the table lately. One that sparked lots of attention was the person who was stuck at a rainy…

That sucks.

These things are just a teensy tiny bit annoying… but they're still stuck on these people's minds. That's what the r/MildlyInfuriating subreddit is all about — sharing the small, mundane annoyances that happen in your day to day life . People have some pretty interesting complaints this week. For example, one person is annoyed that their neighbor put up a random new contraption. It's apparently supposed to rid their yard of small pests. But instead, the buzzing noise the device makes has been p…

It's so unfair when you go out into public and the public is there.
