It is often said that you become that which you desire most—at least, I think so… I may be making this one up as, if it were true, I'd have turned into a chicken nugget by now. Regardless of whether this is actually an expression, this guy manifested it into existence when he felt entitled to take over the entire armrest between himself and a stranger while attending a theater performance. Normally this is a bad move. Sure, you might think that the space is there, so someone should use it—and w…

This woman is moving on from all her school drama . As the OP, u/tryingclosetomybest, shared to r/pettyrevenge, she finally got the last laugh with a man who bullied her all throughout high school. Bullies can make life incredibly challenging for any young person, especially during their formative years. In school, it's easy for kids to get away with saying or doing mean things. At least we all grow up and leave school, and realize that the world is a much larger place than our hometowns. There…

Karen roommates are a dime a dozen, as almost everyone has had to deal with somebody who lacks basic practical skills and human decency. In this case, OP was sharing a two-bedroom with a roommate who he quickly found out was a Karen. Thriving on conflict, Karen always found something wrong to point out. She has given herself one hundred different labels, some of which include being a germaphobe, which she uses as an excuse to demand OP touch nothing… in his own home. OP said he was willing to t…

It's fair to say most people wouldn't want their bosses to know what they buy online in their personal life. Even if you're buying the most innocuous things like cleaning supplies or a new set of plates, it would just be an icky feeling if someone else had access to your Amazon account . This boss does have access to their former employee's Amazon account , meaning they can see all the addresses the employee sends things to, what she's bought before, and even what's in her wish list and her car…

A $25 per month bill inspired this woman to get creative with her parking spot. It's great to have an apartment building where you can park your car in a garage or a parking lot. It saves you the hassle of having to fight for a spot, and if you can park indoors, you'll never have to wipe snow and ice off your vehicle again. And don't even get me started about having to move your car when the street cleaner comes around, which some cities make you do monthly. Yes, there's a lot of be gained from…

Getting back at scheming roommates was this person's goal, and they truly succeeded! Finding the right roommate is key. If you end up not getting along with them, like this person did, you're just out of luck. Unless, like this person also did, you find a way to get out of the agreement. U/Nymyane_Aqua shared their story to r/ MaliciousCompliance . In their story, the OP writes that their roommates had ganged up to try and get them to leave the house they all shared. Why? So that one of the roo…

This boss is going to be a hero to their employees. This fearless manager stood up to an unfair rule in the best possible way — through malicious compliance , and following all the rules. Work-life balance is one of those things that people always talk about trying to achieve, but in reality, it's hard to find balance. Everyone wants to succeed in the workplace, but some bosses insist that you work long hours or holidays in order to accomplish all your tasks. It seems like this company's CEO ha…

There are a few rules you simply can't break when living with another person. Do your dishes, don't throw parties at 3AM, and you absolutely, 100% cannot eat their food out of the fridge. The refrigerator is sacred and, as a roommate, you aren't privy to every resource in the house just because you live there. It's not your mommy's house, you can't just eat whatever is in the kitchen.

I bet this boss really regrets how he treated his employees now that they have some power over him. It doesn't take much to lose someone's faith in you, which this guy realized way too late. During the dark times of 2020, there was possibly no field worse to be in than the travel field. If you're a travel agent , planning and booking vacations for people is your whole career, so when travel suddenly came to a screeching halt, the industry was sunk. If you were in the travel industry at that poi…

CEO's and upper management types are the kind of people that have the fewest tricks but the loudest bark. As the big dog at the dog park, they notoriously rampage around the others, nipping the heels of every loyal employee, defiling the sanctity of the workplace with their talk of ‘disruption’, and forcing their handlers to pick up every doo-doo in their wake.

Laundry room etiquette isn't something you can learn from a book or read in a magazine. You learn about laundry rules from being in the trenches at the laundromat, slinging quarters for an extra 15 minutes to nuke your clothes and still have them come out a little damp. The fury you feel after experiencing a laundromat faux pas is what teaches you right from wrong.

Ah, the power of the one-star review!

"Would you be so kind…"

These people shared their favorite “insults that don't sound like insults”

When a family member becomes financially successful and is moving forward in life, why is it that hangers-on and fringe members of the family feel entitled to a piece of their success? Your cousin may be buying fancy jewelry and accessories with their new-found cash, but that certainly doesn't entitle you to a piece of their diamond encrusted pie.

The noble backpack has been used by mankind for centuries, with its usage dating back to ancient times, first likely being used by hunters to carry gear and supplies. Now that pedigree is joined by a new usage: accompanying a Karen on a long journey. If you look, you will find that there is a long and storied history of people becoming great friends with backpacks, “Dora the Explorer” being the most notable example. The famed explorer is now joined by this Karen, who undoubtedly became fast fri…
