Break up with your boyfriend, we're bored

That's a costly shower

Truly unhinged

Happy Tuesday, people with parents! This week, we've collected the absolute peak of unhinged parental texts for you. It's not quite fun or funny, but for anyone with awful parents , this collection is a little too relatable. Not to dump on any individual reading this article, but I'm not in contact with either of my parents. And that's a good thing! Sure, it'd be nice to have family members to call my own, but that's what your friends' parents are for. Thanksgiving with a friend's family always…

You know what they say about insane parents , can't live with them, can't live without them despite your best effort to rid them from your life. There's no perfect parent-and-child relationship. Even the best families still have hiccups now and then. There are a lot of lucky people out there with some of the best, most sane parents imaginable. And that's incredible! But we're not here to talk about you guys, sorry. Some of us have been cursed with the most deranged parents imaginable. I can per…

Even Harvard isn't good enough

Now, I don't have the biggest stomach of all time, but when I go out, I'll order what I order based on what I want. Maybe I worked out that morning; I'm going to order something heavy and hearty. Maybe I'm not feeling particularly peckish, so I'll order something light. That's my decision and unless it goes against a strict dietary restraint, then I'm going to make my own choice as to what I eat. In a thread on the /r/amitheasshole subreddit, user /u/dragonflysouth4310 explained the dilemma tha…

“Selling out” is a far less cogent cultural concept than it was during the 20th century. At least, that's how it seems

I guess we'll never know!

Toxicity has no gender

I'm the first to admit I have a cushy office job . I sit practically all day from 10-6, and by definition, I'm probably leading a sedentary lifestyle. I'm lucky to live in New York City, so I get a good amount of walking in every day, but I am not the pillar of active living by any means. If you work a job where you have to be on your feet for hours on end, you probably wish you were in my shoes. Sitting all day might be harmful to your health long-term, but running around all day doing silly l…

I have never been discriminated against on the ground of being blonde. A blessed bottle of bleach touched my scalp for the first time when I was twenty, and I've been addicted ever since. Being blonde has gotten me nothing but compliments and a couple of wild assumptions that it's natural, which is absurd considering the brown caterpillars that are my eyebrows. "Dumb blonde" is one of those playground insults. It can be exceedingly hurtful to kids who are called that, but kids usually grow out…

When friends reveal their true nature

There's nothing worse than a slimy boss who thinks they're a good person because they pay a little more than minimum wage . Of course, some dirty bosses only pay minimum wage, but at least those people can't rub it in your face that they're allegedly good people; at least they feel a little bit of shame. Working a service job is awful, not only because the pay is usually terrible but because you're constantly being surveilled by your "superiors." Anything you do can and will be used against you…

So selfish

The internet can be a strange and dark place, and nowhere is this more evident than deep within the weird world of online gaming . At first glance, a game like Roblox looks like a cute, harmless kids game where you get to be a Lego man. And while Roblox is a popular and beloved platform, like many other online communities, it can also be a place where gamers do a little trolling. This type of behavior is often referred to as "griefing" and can take many forms, from verbal harassment to sabotagi…
