We love nothing more than a good old fashioned language translation fail. Languages can be wildly confusing, and sometimes that goes on to inspire absolutely hilarious misunderstandings between people that would otherwise be getting along just fine. In this case though, we learn that this particular misunderstanding was the straw that broke the camel's back, and apparently this guy was a dang "side guy." 

Oh man, these kinds of revelations are the true humbling moments in one's life. This dude ended up learning that they'd been depriving their PC of optimal performance for years, when the quick fix was waiting right around the corner. Oh well, it can happen to the best of us, and at least it worked out in the end. Even if it took a few years to get there. 

Honestly, they got lucky. Years long feuds have gone down over something like this. Could've shaken out a whole lot worse. 

Anyone who has ever played a game of Monopoly with their family knows firsthand how wildly competitive those games can end up being. Tempers can flare up and soar through the roof. Tears can be spilt. Grudges can be created. Monopoly is just one of those games that manages to bring out the very worst in people. With that being said, this kid's brutal blow to his dad during their game of Monopoly is the stuff of legends. Don't think dad will be talking to them for a while. 

We're honestly just glad that this particular DNA test surprise turned out for the best, and that everyone seems to have handled the shock with grace and love and understanding. Those DNA tests just have an uncanny knack for exposing all the skeletons hiding out in people's closets. Check out another family's shocking experience with a DNA test over here.

Translation fails inspire all kinds of hilarious confusion between two perfectly rational human beings. In this case, we have a customer unknowingly repeatedly pleading for nothing at all. If you're the bartender on the other side of that mishap, do you let the oblivious stupidity persist, or do you correct the translation fail as soon as possible? Could be a tough call if you end up wanting to have some fun with it. 

Let this man's story of fail be a lesson in not leaping toward assumptions. Even with that being said, it does seem like he was caught up in quite the unsettling and genuinely physically uncomfortable predicament. Those laundry detergent pods will get you, man. It's definitely a good thing that he learned what was going on when it was all said and done. Couldn't have been good for his health! 

It's hilarious how one simple and completely innocent misunderstanding can go on to inspire quite the hilarious chain of events. In this particular scenario, this guy misunderstood his girlfriend's dad when they were having a conversation, and basically ended up asking the poor guy if he could have his blessing to cheat on his daughter. At least they were all able to have a good laugh about it after the fact. 

Man, oh man, we love a good old translation fail. Due to this guy's poor ability at speaking Chinese, he ended up in a hilarious misunderstanding with his mom and sister. Poor dude thought his sis was in real hot water. Fortunately, the truth came to light, and all the laughs were had. Get some more translation fails with these dumb mistranslated tattoos and shirts that people witnessed. 

It sounds like this relationship was doomed from the start. All she did was leave her new neighbor her number on a note, in cursive, and that was apparently enough to qualify as the straw that broke the camel's back. Honestly, this might be the ideal outcome The fact that the potential ex wouldn't even consider talking to their neighbor is a definite red flag. 

This student's business project that involved people competing on Super Smash Bros really ended up taking on a life of its own. It escalated to such an extent that they ultimately found themselves being shunned, and suspended from school. Pretty wild that it evolved into a "gambling ring." Whoops. 

Love to see a good case of the entitled Karen getting put in her place. Karen apparently took it upon herself to harass another woman for speaking Welsh, because according to Karen the only acceptable language to speak is English. Fortunately, the mom was ready to put Karen in her place. Check out some more Karen drama with this salty Karen who claimed she was sold a faulty machine, until proven otherwise.

What began as a silly spider prank, evolved into a rollercoaster of unforeseen circumstances. Just picturing a prank backfiring to such an extent that you're literally staring at your boss who looks like he's having a heart attack, is enough to give anyone with a decent head on their shoulders, the fear. As it turns out though, this boss was merely taking the prank to the next level, and pulling the iconic reverse UNO card. Did the boss take it too far, by letting things play out for as long as he did? Maybe so. At least we got this story out of the experience. 

The desire to crack a dad joke can be too much to bear sometimes. In this case, the guy learned his lesson about maybe exercising some more self restraint the next time the maddening urge to unleash a dad joke presents itself at the airport. 

Seriously, more than anything else this dude is lucky that he survived to tell the tale of the time that he tried to kayak across the Mississippi River. That is no joke. This basically reads like a real life Oregon Trail video game scene, except instead of the wagon sinking, it was a dang cheap kayak. 

This employee decided to take their petty revenge by sending Karen on a seemingly meaningless mission of driving 50 unnecessary miles. It's amazing how many bumps in the road can pop up when people decide to adopt a rude attitude toward another person, who is just working their job and trying to be helpful.
