social media

Nothing can quite melt a fan's heart like meeting a celebrity that they absolutely idolize, and then not having the experience dampened by the obnoxious weight of a nasty ego. Celebrities are bestowed with quite a bit of power when it comes to making someone's day, or even giving them a cherished memory to last a whole lifetime. 

Little did you know, but there's a whole tidal wave of passion going into the whole "ugly fruit" cause. Yes, all you have to do is read this thread from Dr Sarah Taber, and you'll quickly see that there's some substance to the whole matter. 

Twitter user @PrismaticWastes decided to enlighten the world about how asymmetrical shopping mall maps actually translate beautifully for megadungeon maps. When you think about it, it makes sense. Malls are pretty much designed to make shoppers stay as long as humanly possible. Apparently college campus and zoo maps are also viable options. 

This moving Twitter thread from @AntnHZ is brimming with all the feels. They paint a picture of a very loving and openminded grandmother, who spontaneously decides to take up D&D late in life while she's battling the harrowing ills of pancreatic cancer. You can just feel the love running amok throughout this story. 

Anyone who embarks upon the ever trying journey of wrestling the blank page will become terribly familiar with the grueling process that can be just trying to spew some words out. So, this helpful little Twitter thread that includes some knowledge gleaned from a creative writing class might just come in handy. 

We've all seen a mad lad storm that social media feed like a bull in a china shop. They light up an otherwise peaceful comments section with bullish bravado and their fiery antics. If you enjoyed these instances of dudes being verified mad lads, check out some more mad lads who were the maddest baddest lads over here.

Sometimes, it's fun to revisit the past and appreciate just how strange some of the things were throughout the journey that was muddling through the education system as a young one. This Twitter thread from @melmadara will likely resonate with many folks out there. It might even make you feel far older than you did before. If you want to keep the nostalgia going after this thread, check out some nostalgic snacks from the 90s and 00s. 

There are way too many sleazy landlords trying to pull a fast one on unsuspecting tenants out there. It seems like we're regularly coming across revenge stories involving one tenant taking their righteous revenge on a landlord who misplaced their moral compass. Enough is enough. Maybe if more people approach their sketchy landlords like the dude in this post, other landlords would be inspired to change their ways. Check out another landlord revenge story with this property manager who wouldn't return a security deposit, and then the pro revenge that ensued. 

The different realms in the overall universe of social media can get to be quite ridiculous. You have this massive online gathering of folks, and with that can come the unfortunate, awkward results of various individuals mindlessly throwing out posts that could've used just a little bit more thought, before being shared with the rest of the world. Some posts are certainly more awkward than others. 

Every now and again perfect strangers band together to create an internet artifact that's as wildly unexpected as it is strangely hilarious. This is certainly one of those times. We have a ton of people playing off one another as they work on "clarifying" what "Rick and Morty" is. It's a totally random thread, and very well might leave you in awe. 

We love to see this gem making the rounds again. We look back to a time, a strange and surprising time when what appears to be a runaway criminal named Anthony Ackers, up and decides to respond to his own "wanted" ad out in Richland, WA. What ensues is nothing short of a swift emotional rollercoaster, filled to the brim with banter and the inevitable moment when Ackers serves up his own demise. 

This powerful Twitter thread focuses on the importance of setting personal boundaries with others around you, and adapting accordingly when those boundaries aren't respected. This woman's mom sounds like an awesome human being. You can see the positive impact that this mom's parenting approach had as the young woman grew up and faced other situations in life where her personal boundaries weren't being respected. 

The hiring process can absolutely be a disorienting and difficult grind of an experience. With that being said it certainly helps to have some resume tips handy that can give you an edge on the rest of the competition. Fortunately, this recruiter was able to hook it up. 

Ryan Reynolds has been admirably straightforward about his feelings regarding the monumental cinematic flop that was the "Green Lantern" film. If you've seen it, you know exactly what he's talking about. It was such a disorienting, discombobulated film that rarely (if ever) had a moment where the viewer could actually get comfortably lost in the movie. So, naturally Ryan Reynolds decision to provide his colorful, spicy commentary on the film resulted in some gems.
