The world has its unfair share of entitled people with demanding boldness. In this case it's a parent who hit up an artist who makes art for the public, just so they could demand special treatment for their kid. It's unclear what kind of reasoning leads someone down the path of thinking this is a normal request, but wow.

Um, so it's not like someone is able to have ownership over a name. Especially considering the context of this situation, and the fact that the woman's friend hasn't even had her next baby yet, and is unsure if that baby's going to be a girl or not. But no, instead she insists on making a whole drama out of something that seems like it never should've been a drama in the first place. 

For some more juicy baby name drama check out this story about a woman wanting to name her baby "Alibi." Yikes. 

Man, sometimes you say something, completely kidding, and it ends up manifesting further on down the road. In this case, we can understand why the guy's friend had the initial reaction that he did. The dad had already been through the miraculous, shocking experience that is having twins, only to learn that he's about to have some triplets too. That kind of development will definitely do a number on most anyone. 

Anyone who has ever played a game of Monopoly with their family knows firsthand how wildly competitive those games can end up being. Tempers can flare up and soar through the roof. Tears can be spilt. Grudges can be created. Monopoly is just one of those games that manages to bring out the very worst in people. With that being said, this kid's brutal blow to his dad during their game of Monopoly is the stuff of legends. Don't think dad will be talking to them for a while. 

Man, it sounds like this home has all the dang advices. It was only a matter of time before something like this occurred. It was one thing for the daughter to accidentally connect to the wrong device and play some disruptive music in the middle of her mom's virtual book club. But it's a whole another matter when you find out that the song that was playing was "WAP."

Someone on AskReddit got a thread going about the various downsides of being an adult that teenagers don't realize. It's funny, when we're younger we can give ourselves over to this notion that when we grow up everything's going to be a whole lot better; but then you get there, and it's just a new world of unforeseen responsibilities. Suddenly, you find yourself craving the days of your youth when all you had to worry about was getting to bed at a reasonable time for school the next morning. If that. 

There's nothing wrong with finding ways to share your appreciation for Game of Thrones. Even if the last season and that finale was some whole other kind of mess, but leave the newborn baby out of the process. Or, or if you're going to name your newborn after a character from the show, at least spell their name right. The name that this new mom settled on sounds like it'd manifest in nothing short of a waking nightmare for the kid every time they went to introduce themselves. 

This tale of pro revenge involving an inconsiderate county mower and a dad who wasn't going to put up with anyone's nonsense reminds us of another revenge involving a steel-enforced mailbox and a snowplow. The grin on dad's face must've spanned from cheek to cheek. Sounds like the county mower was ultimately unsuccessful with trying to get dad to cough up cash for those broken blades too. Talk about the icing on the cake. 

Human beings are amazingly intelligent creatures, but what comes before that is the absolute wildest period of trial and error. Kids are strange and dumb, and while it's not completely their fault, it's hard to ignore. They'll mess up couches, scream for no reason, and demand to touch the stove. There's too much proof that kids are dumb as rocks.

Man, with all the stories about Karens going off on customer service employees and generally depositing large amounts of toxic energy into an otherwise peaceful environment, we hardly ever here from their kids about how difficult it is to have them as parents. This thread peels back the curtain on what it's like to grow up with a Karen as your mom. It's no easy situation. 

Oh man, this especially entitled mom decided she'd go ahead and spew out all kinds of nonsense after being rightfully rejected. Yes, in this world people actually expect fair compensation for their services. On top of that, after being rejected the mom threatens to tell on the tutor for being unfriendly.
