ridiculous

Nothing can quite bring the blood to a boil like a wildly inconsiderate manager who insists on going so far as to play outside the bounds of literally what's legal. It sounds like this doctor was having absolutely none of it. Fortunately, "Steve" sounds like he more than learned his lesson. The world needs more instances like this, where the managers get their rightful comeuppance. For another satisfying instance of malicious compliance check out the time that a customer asked a restaurant to cut a burrito in half, so the restaurant maliciously complied. 

Unfortunately, far too many of us have found ourselves in situations where we realize that we're living next to absolutely nightmarish neighbors. It sounds like this guy had his hands full with a neighbor who couldn't be bothered to respect the clear boundaries that were in place. And then, almost as if it were inevitable, the neighbor ends up crossing one of those hard lines in the sand that can't be crossed. You don't mess with someone's trees, man. 

Unfortunately, the world's in no short supply of wildly entitled choosy beggars that come right out of the woodwork to stink up otherwise peaceful negotiations between buyers and sellers. Clearly, this choosy beggar fell through the cracks when it came to having a basic understanding of how charities in this world work. And then as choosy beggars so often do, this one decides to lash out with a whole lot of rudeness. No good at all, man. For another ridiculous choosy beggar case check out the time that an entitled customer threatened a tattoo parlor with a nasty review, only to end up being beat to the punch.

Unfortunately, far too many people out there end up relying heavily on profanity to drive up the impact of their insults. It can get to be pretty unoriginal pretty quickly. So, when you come across someone who has taken the time to rework their insults so that they're in top shelf rare fashion, it just makes the whole interaction that much more entertaining. Maybe you'll end up adding some of these to your arsenal. You can also check out some more rare insults that squashed people's bulbous egos over here.

One of the biggest problems with talking online is that it's impossible to decipher someone's tone, but at the same time it's also very easy to assume someone is trying to be a jackass. On top of that, we never really know when we might "crossing the line" for someone who's freakout meter is set on a hair trigger. And to fuel the flames of this situation in particular, they decided to make like a chicken sandwich themselves and double down. What started as one chicken burger/sandwich correction rolled into a multi-day snafu that had people freaking out over nothing when everyone could have just gone outside or spent time with their families. Amazing. For some more stupid drama, here's a Tumblr thread on drama in the yarn community.

This might be one of our new favorite Twitter accounts. Naturally, you can count on whatever kinds of updates are coming from the world of Jurassic Park to be completely absurd and brimming with danger. It is kind of fun to think about just what it'd be like to actually work at a place like Jurassic Park. 

Anyone who has ever worked a customer service gig knows that it comes with all kinds of harrowing experiences where you're unfortunately forced to deal with people that decide it's okay to leave their moral compasses at home, before they go shopping. The amount of patience that you can be forced to exercise when working a retail job is nothing short of obscene. Hopefully these grim snapshots of customers being terrible doesn't ring any bells for you. 

There are times when we feel stupid. Maybe we forgot to put the pot under the coffee maker before turning it on. Maybe we accidentally microwaved something metal, plastic or living. But if there's one thing that makes us feel a little less stupid, it's seeing the goofs and blunders of people doing way more stupid things than us. Those facepalm moments of human moronitude may be setting humanity back a few thousand years, but they boost our self esteem for a few fleeting moments, and that's completely worth it.

It sounds like there might be some rampant communication troubles between these two. Specifically, the fact that Seth completely disregarded his girlfriend's very clear desire to get a new purse and not a new bikini is just a bit troubling. And then when his girlfriend yet again expressed to him that she definitely didn't want the new bikini, he insisted on calling her a spoiled brat. That was not the way, Seth. Not the way at all. 

This guy sounds like he was an absolute, inconsiderate, irrationally aggressive individual right from the very get go. Like, the employee repeatedly tried to dissuade him from purchasing the insanely salty licorice and he just wasn't having any of it. Well, he certainly lived to regret that stance. Also though, shout out to the manager for putting the salty old geezer in his place. For another tale of malicious compliance check out the time that a grandpa's mailbox loophole took the mail into the third dimension.

Unfortunately, the world's in no short supply of people that are more than ready to spew their blatant lies. Especially when it comes to the wild west that is social media. You've probably already experienced your fair share of having to deal with total BS clogging up one of your social media feeds. Maybe these people's stories about the most obvious lies they were ever told will remind you of your own unforgettable encounters with grade A BS. 

What in the world would people do without IT? Seriously. Just take the guy that we have in this humorous tech support tale. For whatever reason he was leading a life where he assumed that flames erupting from his computer were a totally normal and acceptable function of the device. Well, it sounds like even after the IT dude showed up to smooth over the issue, the guy still left the interaction puzzled by why there wasn't a "stop the smoke" button. For another tech support tale check out the time that a man assumed his computer would work during a power outage.

The wonderful and wandering minds of Tumblr provide a ceaseless stream of funny and outright bizarre observations about all corners of life. Whether you find yourself in the middle of a Tumblr thread about why statistics is a necessary dumbness test, or maybe a riveting thread about how the world of plants is actually nuts, you can pretty much always count on having your brain tickled in one way or another. Anyways, enjoy these Tumblr gems and keep on Tumblin. 

Get enough technology-phobic people involved in a profitable industry, and boy you've got yourself a recipe for wasteful shenanigans like this tale of an employee who traveled thousands of miles to fix a printer on Christmas. As long as someone else's incompetence and wastefulness ends in your own impromptu vacation, things aren't too bad. For some more rare pleasantness from the world of IT, here's a wholesome IT bro who fixed a guy's destroyed laptop.

Birds' curiosity can end up getting the best of them. Sometimes while on their adventures they can end up flying right into the homes of people that forgot to batten down all the hatches. Naturally, these spontaneous and theatrical entrances can end up making for quite the spectacle. Generally, people can tend to go into a bit of a panic mode. Really though, just imagine what frantic thoughts must be rushing through the poor bird's brain at the same time. Michael Harriot's Twitter thread about his own experience with a bird deciding to make itself welcome in his home makes for quite the emotional rollercoaster.
