Somebody needs therapy, and it's not him

Being gullible can be something of a curse . As a person who, sadly, falls into that category, I understand the struggle. Most recently, a friend somehow convinced me that newts and salamanders were the “original gummies." He claimed that when cured properly, the critters were satisfyingly chewy, and served as inspiration for Haribo and other gummy candies we know and love. I only found out he was lying a few days later. Thank goodness I didn't tell anyone else this incredibly false fact. The w…

Selfies of the soul

It's pretty common knowledge that English is far from the most logical of languages. I can't imagine how difficult it is to make sense of words like “their”, “there,” and “they're." Spelling may not be quite as difficult as Gaelic or Welsh, but making sense of silent letters must be frustrating.

Well, if he wasn't going to be remembered as Carrot Boy before, he certainly is now; there's no walking it back from this one, folks. As commenters have suggested, if he had merely approached the conversation as if it was an old inside joke rather than something that he was harboring deep resentment over, he could have won his old classmates over and finally been rid of his demons in one swift stroke. Instead, the monkey's paw has curled—and the prophecy comes to pass. He is now, and forever wi…

As purveyors of entertainment media, we know it can be a hustle to churn out timely, holiday-related content around the end of the year. Finding content that has to do with Christmas, Hannukah, Kwanzaa, or even peoples' contempt for the holidays can be tough especially when we're working abbreviated schedules. It's only natural that some well-meaning people would manage to muck this up, and it seems that one television news channel has won 2022's award for “Best Seasonal Fail of the Year". Twit…

It's easy to be correct and even easier to be wrong. But it takes true talent and wit to be correct in the wrong way.

We are all well aware by now that kids really do say the darndest things. But they also draw the darndest things. While the internet is full of proud parents sharing their kids' hilarious mistakes (often in the form of parenting tweets ), there's something about seeing these funny fails in art form. The blunders just hit different. Recently, Twitter user @strawbyoghurt shared one such masterpiece - a mixed media (crayon and magic marker) piece depicting Plankton from SpongeBob SquarePants in fr…

If you've got a taste for schadenfreude and a little bit of contempt (or confusion) towards the crypto/NFT sector, we've got a treat for you. As the internet buzzes about the potential of non-fungible tokens and crypto bull runs, many coin proselytizers manage to make fools of themselves on Twitter and Reddit. Sometimes they're sharing a massive loss that occurred due to overconfidence or sheer stupidity . Other times these “bros” just say shit that makes them sound incredibly dumb. We can't sa…

Bone Apple Tea

The torment almost seems intentional

Go crazy. Go stupid.

Some things are universally considered bad ideas. Dating a coworker. Eating certain foods on a date. Drunk texting an ex. And, of course, tattooing a partner's name to one's body. TikToker @..ashlyn.grace didn't seem to get the memo on that last one, and made a very, very large and very permanent mistake that goes all down her back. YALL- Okay so the video before said that “I got a tattoo of my exes name and we broke up in a week” YALL. PLEASE pic.twitter.com/CyWFZig0QS — jordy (@BROCKSQUADD) O…

Umm..what?
