This couple's relationship is on the rocks after the husband insulted his wife to seem cool. They say that the things you treasure most in your loved one, like the way they joke around or the way they put their family members first, might one day become the traits that annoy you the most. Maybe your significant other is close with their parents, and someday that may put you in the middle of all their disputes. This husband clearly has a jokey sense of humor that his wife probably loved when the…

There's always at least one person in every workplace who can't help but make everyone laugh. This is the kind of person that people say “lights up every room they walk into.” They just immediately begin cracking jokes and lightening the mood. This kind of person is especially appreciated in high-stress environments---like the back of house at a busy restaurant. Back-of-house, sometimes abbreviated as BOH, refers to all of the workers behind the scenes, like chefs, meal preppers, and dish washe…

Nothing creates treasured memories faster than someone ruining a Thanksgiving turkey in front of the whole family. Hosting Thanksgiving is a big job. Even if you assign some relatives a food to bring, you suddenly realize, “Uh oh… I'm the one who has to make the turkey.” When you're cooking a giant turkey like that, there are specific rules you need to follow. It needs to defrost, be stuffed and basted, then put in the oven for a certain amount of hours, depending on the weight. I can't speak f…

If this mother in law won't eat this delicious chicken dish, we volunteer instead. Picky eaters transcend culture and time; every family has at least one person who can't stand spicy foods or dislikes a common ingredient like beans. Cooking for another person is a kind and thoughtful thing to do, and it's especially meaningful when it's your family. Speaking as a picky eater, it was a wonderful feeling when someone left my portion of a meal plain for me. Everyone else could eat their regular ch…

Restaurants love to be hip and trendy, but at what cost? There are two types of people: those who photograph their every meal, and those who just eat the food. Food bloggers and amateur photographers alike love to snap pictures of what they're dining on, and post photos to their socials for the whole world to admire. However, it's not exactly original to post just a plain old hamburger. No, your followers want to see you eat the weirdest stuff, it must be eye catching. That's the only reason I…

After this employee hung up on a potential customer, their boss decided to implement new rules. Did these new rules involve common sense? Not at all. Teenagers have been making prank calls since the dawn of time; it's a right of passage to call up an establishment and ask them if their fridge is running. The OP writes that they got so many prank calls each day while working at a pizza restaurant that they got sick of hearing them. So they started hanging up on people who were asking for “bonele…

Not to yuck these peoples' yums, but why would they choose these food combos? The ones included below are truly odd — and chefs and waiters were the ones telling on their customers. The r/KitchenConfidential community answered the question, “What are the grossest substitutions you’ve been asked to make?” Interestingly, the OP suggested that they were unhappy with a customer substituting mustard instead of apple butter on a sandwich with sourdough bread, cheese, and bacon. Tons of commenters sco…

Recipes are great for some, but some chefs prefer to freestyle their meals. I'm fully on team recipe, mainly because when I try to cook without one, my dish turns out just awful . I trust the random cooks of the internet when I make my meals — mostly because I actually had a physical cookbook, and everything I made with it turned out wrong. This cookbook had me making soggy and inedible french toast, and another time, it steered me into making the most watery pancakes I've ever witnessed. They…

This guy is unbelievable — he doesn't even know his neighbor's name , yet he wants her to cook for him? On the r/AmItheA**hole subreddit, there are dozens of posts each day where people try to ascertain if they're a jerk or not. While there's usually some nuance to these scenarios, this guy is just a massive jerk, and he ended up getting told as much by a bajillion commenters. As u/AwayPerformer wrote, he's a single 31 year old living in an apartment complex, and he recently got a new neighbor…

No one's perfect at their job, mistakes do happen. When you're a chef, however, any cooking mistake is going to effect a lot of dishes, and therefore a lot of customers! Chefs, bakers, and waiters gathered to share their funniest stories of food prep gone wrong, and the results are eye-opening and hilarious. It's a good look at the behind the scenes life of a restaurant. I never thought about what might happen if you had to make 40 pecan and pumpkin pies , and then burnt them all! It's a major…

Some diners have absolutely no idea what they want, and they've decided it's their waiters' job to figure it out for them.

One college student took to Reddit to ask if she was in the wrong for a cafeteria eating disagreement, and she probably didn't expect that people would end up calling her a bully! College cafeterias are a multipurpose space where you can dine with friends, chug a coffee while typing on your laptop, or eat alone while scrolling on your phone or doing homework. And of course, at many colleges, this is the main or only dining option — you can't just avoid the cafe. One OP posted to r/AmITheA******…

On r/Cooking, one OP asked, “What's your stupidest cooking opinion so we can all fight about it?” Sure enough, people had plenty of spicy opinions on every food from green onions to grilled cheese.

There are few joys in life, like spending time with your family, but perhaps the exception is cooking with your family members. The kitchen can get way too crowded, even with just one extra person poking around. As one Redditor , u/RioA, posted on the r/Cooking subreddit, they were dealing with their mom rushing a chicken dish , and turning up the heat to get it to cook faster. Once you're done rolling your eyes at that line of logic, you'll see that the poster asked if anyone else could commis…

If you don't pay rent, you don't get a say.

Fasten your seatbelts and prepare to read one of the most incredible workplace stories ever written on Twitter . This person, who goes by @tombrodude, shared a tale for the ages of a “prank” he and his coworkers used to pull on each other. Basically, they waged war against microwave meals . But unless you're reheating, like, tuna casserole, why would you have such disdain for microwaved food? Then, click over here , where we've assembled a list of the most chronically online Twitter users of th…
