sketchy

These troubled video games relive the gnarly moments they met their online friends, and things escalated toward disaster. Sometimes those "friendships" are best left online. You don't want to find yourself in the middle of a sketchy situation where you're already thinking about how "you're never going to do this again."

What a WILD ride. Whether or not this guy's story is actually grounded in truth is the real question. Seems pretty ridiculous to give up all this information with all the risks that could come of talking about it...

You never know when you might find yourself in a tight bind, and if you do, these fun tips could actually be life saving. The world is dark and full of dangers...

So Tracy, California is a very weird and sketchy place that sounds like a government experiment. This Tumblr post has it all: The X-Files vibe, the eerie technology, and the overlying wild culture of what makes Tumblr so awesome! 

Yeah take that con man contractors! This dad's beautifully executed revenge tale is an inspiration to anyone who's ever been screwed over by sketchy contractor companies, looking to exploit good paying people's requests. 

This guy's experience working as a private detective in his 20's is more relatable than you might think; and that is to not ignore the red flag warning signs that could spare you from signing on for a job that's best off being avoided. If your gut is telling you that something isn't right, you best listen to it. 

Sometimes you just know something isn't right. Maybe the hiring manager is a scattered mess of problems, and the company is unmistakably disorganized, and you're getting bombarded with lofty promises that might as well have been pulled out of thin air. If your gut instinct is firing off about that job being a whole bunch of bad news, you're best served to follow it right out of the door. 

Keep a critical eye out for these red flags the next time you take a job interview! 

This distressed video gamer lived down one of everyone's worst TIFU nightmares; that there's someone in the room watching you, without realizing it! Talk about an excruciating lesson in not messing around with sketchy software, without having your computer properly protected. Learn from this, children. At least cover your up your webcam. 

You know things are getting far too real, when amidst your desperate dig to understand a misfired dad joke, you're digging up ancient WW2 artifacts. Yes, that is how far down this ridiculous tale descends. And it honestly sounds pretty amazing. You might call it a fail, but this could just as easily be painted as a win. Potentially fiery crisis averted! 

This is by no means a guide for how to make extra scratch on the weekends. Like, most of these acts are pretty unadvisable. Gotta eat, pay rent and keep the lights on though, so what can ya do. Here are more of these.

These pizza delivery drivers have seen it all; they've seen the darkest sides of humanity. It's as if a pizza delivery driver is a guardian angel of sorts. They show up to bring hot steaming boxes of pizza to the lost and burned out souls, who might've needed someone to check in on them more than the actual pizza. The following stories are pretty gnarly. You might walk away from this list, with a different appreciation for all the messed up kinds of madness a pizza delivery driver has seen in their time.
