It's the spooky season once again, and the internet is ready to celebrate with some of their funniest and shortest horror stories. Could you tell a scary story in just six words? It's harder than it seems! We all know the classic short sad story, “For sale: baby shoes , never worn," written by Ernest Hemingway. The sentence has become a meme online, with plenty of people changing up the template to make their own jokey version of the story ("For sale: baby shoes, quite haunted," is just one exa…

If you could change just one thing about your local hospital or doctor's office, what would it be? Up next, have a laugh at these staircases that are going to make a few people go airborne, like one person who noticed that a flight of stairs “aren't attached to the ground.”

The group chat tea is piping hot, gather 'round! Group chats are a convenient way to relay a message to a bunch of people at once, without having to sit down and message each person individually. From broadcasting a message to organizing an event, it's really got endless utility. However, you've got to be cautious with what you say in these group chats ! There are a ton of eyes on your messages, so any mistake can be quickly screenshotted and saved for posterity. Some GC mistakes turn into hila…

We've all made the mistake of lending money to someone we shouldn't have. Funnily enough, the best-case scenario when we lend a bad individual money, is that they simply never pay you back. The worst-case scenario is something like what happened to the employee here. This employee shared on Twitter a series of texts between her and a coworker after she made the mistake of lending that coworker some money. Instead of it being a simple interaction of the money and a simple ‘thank you', the entire…

Any tweet can be great, but a deleted tweet can become iconic. Just ask the people of the X/Twitter app themselves! When @toxikloveh**s requested to see people's favorite deleted tweets, hundreds of people brought their faves to the table. Declarative tweets with really strong opinions are often the funniest when they're deleted. Like one person shared that, “One thing's for sure, no matter how bad things get. I will always support this team.” Then, wouldn't you know it… they deleted the tweet!…

Sure, raise the prices by 300% and then cut it back by 15%, what a deal…

These artists aren't staying quiet anymore about their commission nightmares. While freelancing online, you may have to jump through a lot of hoops before you can find a good client. Many people will head to an artist's DMs and start brainstorming about the artwork they want to buy. But right off the bat, a lot of people aren't prepared to actually pay for the art. They say things like, “Well, weren't you going to draw that anyway?” or “I think it should be free because it only took you a littl…

If there's one thing everyone knows about the internet at this point, it's that people can be absolutely unhinged online. Regardless of whether or not they choose to remain anonymous, people seem to love to share their ridiculous opinions and “hot takes" on the world wide web for everyone else to pick apart, agree with, disagree with, retweet, repurpose, and even mock. It makes you wonder why we post anything at all anymore yet people will only keep posting. As we mentioned, these absolutely in…

We now have a family rule that my mom can’t blog about anyone else without permission

These scouts are lucky to have survived these camping trips full of mishaps. They gained the memories of a lifetime, and they're sharing them today in reply to @paynushurts' Twitter question: “What was the 'incident' at your summer Boy Scout camping trip?” The answers were wide-ranging and completely hilarious. Some people shared stories from when they were little kids, while others had their craziest times happen as teenagers. Going on a camping trip with your scouting troop is a great way to…

It's not often that an opportunity like this comes around. One consultant got to have the email conversation of a lifetime, and gleefully shared the results to their Twitter followers. It's hard to overstate just how advanced artificiaI inteIIigence has become in such a short period of time. There was a time just a couple of years ago where people didn't understand what AI even was, and it was hard to explain the concept. Now, AI has infiltrated every industry in some way. If you use photo edit…

The things people say on the Internet, man! It's remarkable what people elect to post on public forums for everyone else's amusement and consumption. Granted, sometimes it's totally intentional. People who fancy themselves to be aspiring comedians often turn to social media to find an audience. But oftentimes, the funniest Internet comments are the unintentionally hilarious ones. The ones where people forgot they were posting this online for everyone to see. The ones where people shared way too…

It's all about the little things in life. They say you should try and appreciate the small moments of your days that make a difference, like your partner making you coffee in the morning, or your neighbor bringing a package inside for you when you're not home. At times, this also applies to the small moments in life that are less positive. When you read the tweets below, you'll know exactly how that feels. In an all-too-relatable Twitter thread, user @EastsideTC asked people to share the smalle…

These people realized that their friends actually weren't their friends at all. Sometimes it takes a pattern of behavior to realize a person doesn't have your best interests at heart. Other times, a single incident can send the friendship spiraling. Twitter users shared the incidents that made them finally realize their friends were actually bad friends (and sometimes even their enemy). Reading these tweets is like a cautionary tale of spotting and then avoiding red flags . That can be difficul…

We could not be rolling our eyes any harder at these moments that will make you facepalm. The internet is forever, no matter what you do. Thanks to internet archives, even if you delete something, it's still likely to float around the internet every now and again. For example, I imagine the person who posted about a “leaf” found in their burrito bowl wishes they didn't Tweet about it. That's because even though they thought this was your average everyday outside leaf, it was not. It's a bay lea…

Witty wisecracks about your work life are essential to shift survival
