Whether or not you're still in school, you're an adult at 21 years old, and as such, it stands to reason that you should be significantly contributing to your living situation. There may be some situations where your family might be wealthy enough that you can get away with not contributing, but for most, the reality of most family situations will be that this is not the case, and at 21 years old, you will need to be contributing. Readers here voted for the university student not to be in the w…

As a gardener at a super fancy house , this person was accustomed to big events. They shared that at this place in Massachusetts, they worked on a home that was used for movie shoots and fancy events for the uber-wealthy. U/B****ndogs was pretty used to the demands of the extremely rich : they mentioned that at one point, they were instructed to rake the beach to make it look more even. ("No, it never made a difference," they admitted.) Working with the very wealthy can be lucrative business, j…

Okay then, Grandma, why don't you give it a whirl and see how the photos turn out?

One woman decided that partying was far more important than supporting her sober friend, claiming the ‘wedding was boring’ and then rallying a troupe of other party animals to ditch the wedding early to go out to the bars.

If you break something, you're responsible for its repair or replacement; that's really just common sense. Hopefully, you have insurance for such things that would cover you if someone needed you to repair or replace it. This responsibility understandably extends to your dependents, pets, and anything else you should have a responsibility and control over—whether or not you take that responsibility seriously. Still, there are situations where the claimant might end up dealing with a claimant wh…

Weddings are an interesting social phenomenon. For starters, the bride and groom's first task is to literally rank their family and closest friends by order of importance to them in order to form their bridal parties, almost like we're back on MySpace with our Top Friends ranked and audaciously on display… From there, everyone else gets a rank, too, with what table they're seated at the reception, letting everyone know loud and clear “where they sit" on your social ladder. If you're seated at a…

Honestly, has upper or regional management ever volunteered to fill in for a weekend shift? This wouldn't be the first time that an upper manager pulled something like this, going with the old “you have to make sacrifices to go along with your rank” and ignoring the fact that they're not actually paying their “manager” the industry standard for their role, let alone enough to match the gravitas that they're placing on it. Further, they're conveniently forgetting the fact that they're a manager,…

This couple wanted to mix things up for their wedding, but they had no idea what their guests had planned for them. As told by a wedding coordinator, this story follows a couple who seemed to have it all figured out for their big day. But on the actual day of their nuptials, everything fell apart. This wedding coordinator thought that things were running smoothly in the weeks leading up to the wedding. They shared that there were no issues with vendors, guests, or the couple. They really though…

Many a friendship has been damaged by a bridezilla, and this one is no exception.

Cruise ships: floating palaces packed with tourists and plague that light up the oceans and terrorize whatever small port they happen to land in. You'd have to consider yourself mighty important indeed to think that one of these floating fortresses would forestall its scheduled course in order to accommodate your unfortunately entitled person... Sure, let's leave 3999 people waiting while the 4000th takes their time making your way back to the dock according to their own time. Sure, it's a toug…

Nobody knows how to ruin a wedding celebration quite like a Monster-in-law.

Baby names are a tricky subject, especially when you factor in familial traditions that you might be expected to uphold, and limitations, judgment, and grievances that might be placed by the people around on the name you finally settle on. Of course, especially these days, many people want their baby's name to be unique. Yet somehow these people all end up naming their kid some variation of the same thing, not realizing it until their kid is one of dozens of “Theo”s in their class when they sta…

In the pursuit of money, some people will stoop to embarrassing low points. Being low on money is a terrifying feeling, and if you have nowhere to turn, it's all that's on your mind. Still, there's a time and place to ask for money if you have to. It's a risky question, because friendships and relationships can easily fall apart over unrepaid loans. This person chose a very silly and utterly tasteless time to ask for money: right after a couple's wedding. That's a ridiculous time to ask for mon…

A gift is given willingly—usually without having an expectation placed upon it. Sure, when you're a kid, you might have gotten away with giving Mom and Dad some direction as to what to get you so that you didn't end up with something that wasn't worth anyone's money or time. For instance, if you asked your parents for just a generic “Gameboy game,” you'd wind up with some blockbuster movie cash grab that was almost unplayable and made by some third-party developer instead of the Pokemon game yo…

This couple wanted to send out 15 rules for their wedding. It's not a bad idea in theory, but the tone of the list, and some of the actual rules themselves, got people on the r/weddingshaming subreddit talking. There are a lot of good rules for your wedding, and most don't need to be spelled out for guests. For example, there's one rule which warns guests not to bring outside drinks… who does that? Rule #2 instructs guests not to “get in the photographer's way.” Who hurt this couple enough that…

Not every wedding is a dream come true. In fact, rarely can events that simultaneously cause so much stress and anxiety result in a blissful moment. At the end of the day, much of the reasoning behind this is our own fault. Culturally, we put way too much emphasis on the need to have the perfect time at your wedding while making both parties equally happy. It's an impossible task, so why do we keep doing this to ourselves? These folks understand all too well that weddings are just as likely to…
