Those who love us often want what's best for us, but sometimes they can overstep and cause us further grief — just ask this guy whose mother called his boss to ask why he wasn't home on time. Their well-meaning intentions can manifest into something that really isn't good for us — usually in a metaphorical sense; In the case of Bob and his wife, her overbearing insistence that he get plenty of exercise might have actually killed him. This is why we need to help those in our lives who need it an…

Something tells me this family is going to be ordering takeout this Thursday...

Here's a rare and wholesome story about coworkers!

This guy's in-laws need to face reality.

There's something to be said for trying — but the last thing you want to do with a half-baked gesture is expose how little you listen to (or care) about your partner's wants and wishes. It doesn't take that much time or great observational skills to take note of the things that your partner enjoys; one might hope that, through general time spent together, it's something you'd just naturally and innately come to know. I say this despite myself having the observational skills of a deaf bat and th…

Being in a serious relationship means picking up on all your partner's funny habits

Sure, this mother-in-law was petty, but this woman made it a whole lot worse.

Whatever happened to doing your own chores?

When this woman realized that she was still paying for her cheap, cheating ex-husband's phone as a part of her bill she attempted to reason the situation out with him, when he failed to be reasonable she reported the phone as stolen. There's definitely something to be said for wanting ownership over something you're paying for, and when you're still paying for something that is in the hands of a cheating ex, you had better bet that's going to rub some big ol' grains of salt in some very deep an…

If you want a favor from someone… Isn't it kind of insane to insult the person who you're requesting said favor from? Bonus insanity points for insulting whatever skill or position that is allowing them to do said favor for you. You can't have your ignorant-ass cake and eat it too.

This is just the marriage/grifter plot of Scorsese's Casino, right? Like, tell me this isn't some adaptive creative writing piece that has just repacked the movie into a Reddit thread. The story was shared to Reddit's r/ProRevenge subreddit by Reddit user u/OfPearlsandSwine, who shared their story to the popular sub in a thread titled “Topsy Turvy". The thread, which earned nearly 3k upvotes, makes for an entertaining read but drew a lot of criticism from suspicious commenters. “I'm a lawyer bu…

He had it coming!

You would think at a certain point this woman would get the picture!

Is this satire or a genuine thought? We'll never know...

When you finance a vacation for your wife's entire family, you might expect to receive at least one or two words of thanks and gratitude. Well, sometimes the expectation doesn't quite align with reality, and sometimes it really doesn't align. This is how it was when u/Murky_Ad_193 decided to bankroll the entirety of a Disney getaway for their in-laws. They paid for everything , right down to a “McMansion” for the family to stay in, groceries, and a rental truck for them to get around in. But, a…

When you adopt a pet, you sign a moral agreement to love it unconditionally and take care of it to the very best of your capability and ability. It's no small thing, taking on responsibility for another living thing. That's why it's something that is best not done lightly, lest you find yourself unprepared and incapable of taking care of the said living thing. It sometimes happens despite careful research and preparation, circumstances change, and we find ourselves needing desperately to re-hom…
