It's no secret at this point that most people deride group projects, which are often little more than an excuse by the teacher to make students occupy each other rather than have to teach for that week. But, fair enough, it's a lot of work having a lesson planned for every single day of the week. Especially when that's in addition to actually teaching and then grading that lesson. Teachers deserve the breathing space, and putting a bit of the onus of their own education onto the students isn't…

It's 2023, who still steals phones? Back in the era when every iPhone 3 could be resold on the black market for an up-charge and even the flip phone Razr's were valuable, it was a lucrative business, but now there are so many security measures to protect phone owners, it's a wonder that thieves are still motivated to sneak their hands into their fellow citizens's pockets.

Imagine you're in what seems like a perfect relationship, thinking you've found "the one." Then, out of the blue, your partner drops a bombshell… they want to find someone who shares their faith, so they break up with you . No hard feelings, right? Well, not quite. How would you feel if, less than a week later, your ex is not just dating someone new but is ENGAGED? That's precisely what happened to this Reddit user. But wait, there's more. When U/ MoreRespect20 confronts his ex, she denies ever…

There are a lot of benefits to being in a relationship, but by far, one of the greatest is combining your streaming service logins to maximize access. Often, these logins won't even be your own, just logins that you've been grandfathered into over time through parents, friends, roommates—even exes with whom you're no longer even in contact. These login accesses are a matter of privilege, and one of the reasons why ending a relationship on good terms is a good idea in the modern dating landscape…

Too many organizations prioritize the willingness to do what you're told without asking questions over any actual leadership skills. Should you find yourself in one of these workplaces, get out as fast as you possibly can. In that same vein, it's startling h ow many organizations and managers are willfully negligent about the legalities of the areas where they operate, and it's surprising that feigning ignorance actually allows them to get away with a slap on the wrist. Imagine if you tried to…

Nobody likes a mooch. When you're going out on a limb to help someone, especially a family member, and they treat your generosity with the same disdain as an entitled teenager, the ‘woe is me’ act starts to get old.

It's no secret that petty power begets petty tyrants, but there's something about a petty tyrant who is very aware that they're not quite at the top of the food chain that causes exceedingly terrible behavior. For example, it's often that store managers are the chillest people in existence, being at the top of the immediate food chain with nowhere really else to go; they tend to take things as they come and are easygoing to subordinates. Meanwhile, assistant managers have a much higher chance o…

Every landscaper's nightmare

There's a saying, “if you can't take it, then don't dish it out.” Basically, if you don't like the taste of your own medicine, then you better stop messing around. There are a lot of sayings like this and they all mean the same thing of not messing with people, because it can always come back to you even stronger. That is exactly something one lawyer was able to prove. He was working for a mid-sized company as their lawyer when one of their buildings had burned down. This could've been a quick…

Have you ever had a nasty breakup where your ex tried to take something that was rightfully yours? Maybe it was a car, a TV, or even a pet. Well, one Reddit user had to deal with a cat-napping ex who thought he could hold their beloved kitty hostage, but she wasn’t going to let him get away with it. The story involves a toxic relationship, a fake death, a tattoo that went too far, and an orange cat named Tigger (also referred to as Dinglebumb). It’s a story of deception, drama, and determinatio…

Sometimes, the opportunity for getting payback on your awful coworker does not arise until many years down the road. In this case, Jessica (said awful coworker) got this Redditor fired after they had called her out for doing nothing on the job. Of course, the wrong person was punished and everyone secretly knew this, especially the Redditor. However, while it seemed that the story ended badly for them, the opportunity for payback arrived years later when OP found themselves at a bank where they…

Years ago, a newlywed couple moved into a small one-bedroom apartment. Unbeknownst to them, their quiet existence was about to be disrupted by an elderly neighbor on the other side of their only shared wall. Complaints about excessive noise started pouring in, despite the couple's peaceful lifestyle. They contacted the apartment management, who dismissed the complaints as misunderstandings. The situation escalated when the police showed up multiple times in response to noise complaints , even c…

You might wish sometimes that you could lock up your antagonists for good or maybe entomb them “The Cask of Amontillado” style.

It's really not that hard to treat others with the barest amount of decency and respect. In fact, it takes more energy to be mean, to the point where you almost have to go out of your way to do it. For that reason, it literally makes zero logical sense when someone goes the extra distance to be unkind, even if it's just in a subtle sort of way: a sneering lip or upturned nose that lets you know that they think themselves to be above you. This poster writes that they used to work in television p…

They say the best revenge is achieving personal success, but sometimes it's more than that… It's the pathway to it. After all, performing well above requirements isn't always going to win you friends and is more likely to put a target on your back for everyone who is just there to earn a paycheck and who you're making look bad in comparison. See, when you prove what's possible to an employer, they start wondering why everyone else isn't being as productive as you are and are bound to start aski…

There is a certain etiquette when you're on a long train ride and in close quarters with other passengers. Talking loudly on the phone for hours on end is not up to code. If you go down that path, you can expect retaliation and feedback. It could be small such as your fellow passenger rolling their eyes or politely asking you to stop. However, the response could also be petty. In this instance, the response was severely petty. This Redditor shared all the ways in which he ensured that his fello…
