That is one way to deal with a phone scammer. Never forget the time that this programmer decided to write a script that called phone scammers 28 times a second, which resulted in service denial, which prevented future scams.
This salesman's pro revenge story can warm the heart. It sounds like him and many others were screwed over on bonus checks that they'd been promised. So, he decided to fight back by maneuvering himself into getting a bonus check, and then ultimately quitting and collecting his PTO on the way out to get shwasty at a bar across the street. What a day that must've been.
This kid put on one amazing show. Nobody around him was probably expecting that. Amazing.
Celebrity encounters can be a magical time where people cross paths with their heroes, and those heroes actually kind of live up to the hype. Other times though, it's a moment when one realizes that celebrities (even the "heroic ones") are just like any other human being. Often full of emotions, complications, thoughts, etc. If anything, some of those celebs might just be hurting for an opportunity to bond with another human being on a basic human being level, with no society enforced roles being played.
These Tinder lovebirds communicated for quite some time, in only GIFs. There's a strange kind of appreciation that can arise when one observes that kind of unconventional persistence. It could be lazier than usual to only text in GIFs, or it could be surprisingly more time consuming. Either way, dude got the digits, and the two Tinderers seemed to have gotten on well with each other. Wonder what'll happen when they (potentially) transition from communicating in GIFs.
Live stand-up comedy is a hard thing to do during a nationwide quarantine. This particular approach has audience members drive in and tune in to a particular radio station tuned to each comic's mic. To get some real-time feedback there's the policy of "honk when you laugh." It's weird to see a parking lot full of cars honking and have it be a good thing, but the idea is definitely a creative solution to the issue of holding a live event.
This dude decided to give a scammer a taste of their own medicine. And that medicine looks like intentionally eating up as much of their time as possible. By playing it out like he was naive and confused, he managed to fool the scammer for quite some time. The ending with the drawing was really the icing on the cake.
Yes, doing good stuff recklessly. That's one way to go about spreading love and kindness in the world. Approaching those moments when a stranger might be hurting for an act of generosity, not from a place of judgment, but love, is where it is all at. This Tumblr thread captures some of those moments when the good energy was being exchanged between human beings.
Being in a car accident is stressful enough. Throw on some fraudulent accident reports and you've got yourself a legal nightmare that this mom handled like a beast. For another tale of satisfying revenge, here is an entitled neighbor who chopped down a tree that ended up costing 700 K.
High level badminton is an adrenaline-charged experience for the players, and the viewers. Seriously, the noises coming off those rackets, as well as the spontaneous eruptions of dudes screaming, makes for quite the spectacle.
It seems like the industrious and creative among us are getting bored enough right now to turn a morning shaving routine into a sweet sweet music.
