Growing up with divorced parents sucks. Obviously when mom and dad split up, it was because of some unresolved conflict– or ‘beef’ as they say– that forced their hand on ending their marriage. When you have kiddos thrown into the mix, things can get messy.

Tough love, am I right?

HOA stands for “Horribly Obnoxious Association” and they're the group of prying Karen's and Kevin's that make up the most outrageous rules for the neighborhood, simply to lord themselves over everybody, bolstering their superiority complex. For some suburban neighborhoods, they're the gestapo waiting for inhabitants to make simple mistakes so that they can send them warnings and fines and petty paperwork to file.

Teens don't always think about the consequences of their actions… That's a skill you gain as you get older and wiser! Some people don't necessarily become more mature as they age, however. This guy, for one, still thinks he's so cool for getting really petty levels of revenge against his neighbor, even decades later. As people in the comments pointed out, keeping your neighbors happy is pretty important — otherwise you might find they're retaliating against you ! One commenter warned the OP to…

What would we ever do without our family? As a dad, there are several duties you have to do (aside from childcare, chores, etc.) You have to have a pair of “dad sneakers” that you'll wear for 20 years to any and all occasions. You have to pick a single household item to monitor very closely ("Don't touch that thermostat!"). And then, you have to deliver a steady supply of groan-inducing, completely unnecessary, and very silly dad jokes. This guy is nailing the jokey side of fatherhood, even tho…

This infuriated woman vowed, "I'm going to get you in sooo much trouble !" to a baffled 13-year-old snowboarder . Some entitled folks just don't understand the concept of sharing. It's one of the most basic rules of humanity, yet some people just want everything for themselves. This woman couldn't bear the thought of sharing land with a snowboarder — she should have known how ridiculous that is! As the OP writes, they just wanted to snowboard on their family's property. However, a Karen decided…

These brave souls told us all about their cringiest teen phases , from bleaching the tips of their hair to unironically rocking fedoras. Going through phases in life is only natural. After all, as you grow from a child to a teen to an adult, you need to learn about who you are and who you want to be. There's a lot of trial and error as you make new friends or enter new classes. Suddenly, something you loved last week is now unbearably cringe. That's the gift of hindsight! Looking back on their…

Minimum wage? No thanks. This teen is ready for a 6-figure job! A boss at one shop shared their experience while hiring for an entry-level position , which ended in hilarity after this teen's highfalutin request. They wrote to r/EntitledPeople to share their tale. The OP was only looking for a teen to clean up around their mechanic shop, adding that teens don't usually stick around for long. It seems like it's a starter job for most teens – but then the OP interviewed this dude, who didn't take…

The kids are not all right! This is the kind of Reddit thread that will 100% be adapted into a movie.

This Mom thought outlining the tires with chalk and installing a GPS tracker would stop her unlicensed teenage daughter from taking out her car when her parents weren't home. Rookie mistake.

This woman decided to visit an expensive department store and spy on the other customers while they shopped. If only she had decided to mind her business, the internet wouldn't be roasting her ! After a shopping incident, Karen felt justified to post to r/AmItheA**hole – she was so sure she was in the right, but she just wanted to be sure. As she explains the story, she went for a shopping trip in Bloomingdales, and noticed two teen girls who found a pair of super expensive boots , and decided…

You're buying a sandwich and you get to add a stupid big amount of one ingredient: what do you choose? This one guy demanded extra onions on his burger, and with their manager's permission, this Redditor fired up some delicious malicious compliance ! As a teenage McDonalds employee, this OP got their fair share of irritating customers . Customers can be so demanding, asking for all kinds of special substitutions or additions to their food. Some people want really specific things, like having th…

One teen wondered if they were the jerk for getting angry at their friend's bizarre joke. The r/AmItheA****** community quickly rallied to let this teen know that friends shouldn't treat you like this! The writer, u/Wrong_Possession_839, described a scenario that took place at a restaurant that left a huge divide between them and their friend group . In the comments, the writer also added a few extra details that helped people gain insight into the situation. As they wrote, the entire friend gr…

Oh, you did something awkward? Time to share it with your 8000 closest friends on social media! These people below are unashamed, thriving, living their most embarrassing lives right out in public. It's easy enough to shoot off a quick Snap story to your friends or followers. I feel bad for the guy who accidentally sliced off half his hair just in time for his very first day of class. That's not quite the right impression you want to give! I also feel for the woman who was shaving her legs and…

You never really know a person's quirks and habits fully until you've lived with them. For these poor roommates , it's too late! They're already stuck living with a person who is convinced that they're doing everything right, and their roommate is the one interfering, actually. I've had wonderful luck with roommates in my own life, they all were normal and clean (great qualities in a cohabitator). The worst thing that ever happened was when my roommate put an egg in the microwave and as soon as…

Every Dad is silly in one way or another – that's just part of being a parent! – but this clueless Kevin is the ultimate goofy dad, making dangerous mistakes at every turn.
