Some kids are too smart for their own good. This teen is also too entrepreneurial for her own good! Even from a young age, some children just crave money. It's hard not to, since money buys basically everything good in this world. However, kids don't always know that there are ethical ways to make some cash, and ways to make some money that are a bit shady. That kid is so desperate to buy the newest game or some snacks that they might start pilfering from their classmates or stealing pocket mon…

Dive into the world of the hilarious Facebook marketplace fails! If you're familiar with the platform, you know that most of the listings consist of typical furniture items and clothing, you know, normal things you'd find at a second-hand store. But it's also Facebook. So you have to be prepared for the random one-off listings that you can't tell if the seller is serious or just trying to make a joke. Either way, it keeps you entertained for long enough until you find yourself doom-scrolling...

Everyone dreams of the day their annoying neighbor moves out, but not that many people get the opportunity to make that moving process a living nightmare. This resident of a two-condo home had a ton of friction with the downstairs neighbors, who tended to shirk their collective responsibilities. This naturally led to a ton of resentment from the resident upstairs, who recently learned they were planning to sell their condominium. The resident knew his neighbors would likely make life more diffi…

Buying or selling a house is a pretty stressful experience, there's a lot on the line and a whole lot of things need to line up for everything to fall into place. Plus, there's plenty of opportunities for someone to screw you over from the realtor to the seller/buyer themselves, so it's pretty easy to be on edge and understandable, at least, to want to control every aspect of the situation. Still, as with anything in life and especially in stressful situations and negotiations, approaching thin…

You will never believe what people are selling online these days. What can't you buy online? These days, we have the blessing and curse of being able to buy and sell any item you'd ever want, not to mention hundreds of items that nobody in their right mind would ever want. Don't let the Craigslisters of the world hear that, though. They believe that any random garbage found around their house has value. There are people who sell things like 100 packets of hot sauce. There is a person who is, wi…

The general conception of a 'successful life' consists of a few things a person should achieve in their life, with the main ones unsurprisingly being – starting a family, having a successful career, and owning a home. While we can argue about all three of these concepts and their actual value to someone's life, let's take a moment to focus on the idea of owning a home. Surely we can all understand the benefits of owning your own house – you don't have anyone to answer to, you can do whatever yo…

Rules are rules, and at hotels, they exist for a reason. One guest checked into a hotel in the middle of a forest, and a while later, came up to the front desk clerk to enquire about campfires. This guest thought it would be a brilliant idea to light a campfire right outside his cabin so that he could enjoy it from his porch. Dude… do you know anything about fire safety? The front desk clerk stared at him and informed him that 20 yards away, were a bunch of leaves, dry as the desert. He couldn'…

How does one photograph a mirror? It's not hard if you use your imagination, like these folks did. Maybe you're thinking to yourself, “Ha! How hard could it be to photograph a mirror? Just point your phone or camera and snap away.” Mmm sure, in theory that can work. But go ahead and try to photograph the nearest mirror to you, and see how well you do at the task.

One shopper is confused and suspicious after an odd encounter with the person who sold them a gift. It seems like ordering online has become such a gamble. Even if you're ordering from a site that is known to be reputable and sell handmade items, you might find you're actually ordering from some random person overseas. Some people will order a blanket or some clothing from another country , only to find that it get stuck at a border somewhere for months. This is especially irritating if you're…

This person is completely confused after a second-hand sale gone wrong. I'm on this person's side… but commenters agree with the seller. Buying second-hand items is a great way to save money and recycle. These days, it's a great way to get reliable clothing, since clothes from past decades last longer than the current brands of fast fashion. For people who are just getting started in their first apartments, it's a great way to get some nice furniture at a cheap price. And others use it to spruc…

When we were kids, bratty kids on the playground would claim that their dad, uncle, or other random family member worked for Nintendo. They'd always be spouting some bogus insider information or rumors as if they were undeniable facts, all in the name of getting much-needed attention and clout. These were the days when the internet was just getting started, so it was never really possible to prove their audacious claims to be false, but there certainly were some heated 'uh-uh's' and 'yeah-huh's…

Some crafty folks enjoy selling their creations, but their customers seem to feel entitled to every step of the process. In the social media era, it's never been easier to feel closer to your favorite artist. The common adage is that people are attracted to the process of creating art, and lots of social media savvy creators are now showing their processes publically. This especially draws attention if your artwork involves dripping lots of paint down a canvas or frosting a cake at 5x speed. Th…

You can buy and sell just about anything on the internet, but don't take my word for it. These people showed that you can list anything for sale, from pilfered sneakers to a pita chip that looks like it has a face. If you've ever had a craving for one packet of Chick Fil A sauce and want to pay the low low price of just over $4 million, I have a listing to show you. Some listings are certainly more serious than others---lots of people really think they have valuable junk laying around their hou…

Save the planet by buying all your cursed objects secondhand. Reduce, reuse, recycle, revenant. While I've never experienced a haunting, I want to believe in ghosts. I'm afraid if I don't believe in spirits, they'll try to prove me wrong. I've watched enough horror movies to have some hubris about these things. If my home ever does become haunted, I might not ever know, because my earbuds block out noise pretty well. A ghost would have to start slamming doors or knocking over belongings to get…

It's time to take a look at this week's collection of needy, entitled folks!

This seller is way too smart to be fooled by this influencer's tricks. Running a small business seems both incredibly rewarding, and also really difficult. They're often run by just one or two people who handle everything from listing the order online , to promoting the product on social media, to packing and shipping the product, to talking with customers who need assistance. On top of all of it, some people will still go out of their way to try and fool these sellers. This influencer did exac…
