Ladies, do you get horrible period cramps? That sucks, but think about how your poor husband feels when you're not there to cook and clean for him because you're "in too much pain." He's waiting for his dinner and he doesn't know how to boil his own water for pasta, dammit.
In all seriousness, clearly this narrative wouldn't fly today, but the mid-twentieth century and before was a completely different story. Scroll down and see for yourself.
We get that sometimes mistakes get made. Even very embarrassing mistakes where people laugh at you for years. That's just a normal part of life.
Where we draw this line of empathy, however, is when brands f*ck up so royally that one can't help but do a double-take. If you're still not on our side here, just think about how each of these designs likely had to go through multiple levels of editor-approval before being printed! Yikes...
Could you classify any of this as actual food? We can't, but apparently a lot of people did back in the day. If your Boomer parents ever try to tell you how much better life was back then, just hit 'em with an "OK Boomer" and show them this gallery of horrifying foods from the mid-twentieth century that will almost certainly make your stomach churn. Bring on the jello.
These ads and headlines are so terribly placed that you have to wonder whether these publishers knew exactly what they were doing. Either that or they were written by a bunch of overworked staff writers who skipped over some crucial details. Either way, these pics are pretty funny, and full of innuendos!
Damn, some major shade thrown at Baby Boomers in this video, and we're pretty okay with it tbh!
We love e-commerce sites like Amazon or Wish.com for a.) their convenience, and b.) the bizarre products they advertise and the hilarious reviews that come with them. Of course, always take the products with a grain of salt before actually purchasing! Furthermore, we're not entirely sure what the hell some of the following products even are...

It seems like every brand these days is using some profound human experience to sell their product in hopes that it'll insight some feelings in their customers. We've seen Burger King do it, and apparently now it's Subway's turn.
Twitter user Ryan Simmons pointed out that a Subway commercial made in Brazil went completely over the top, to say the absolute least, in this new dramatic two-minute video. The seemingly heartfelt ad features a young boy coming of age and ends with him ordering a sandwich at Subway. How the hell Subway's marketing team thought that one up, we'll never know.
The ad features the main character creeping on his own mother, peeing in a fountain, and shaving his head. Yeah, you're just going to have to watch it to even remotely understand what we're talking about.
Pretty much every person over the age of 50 loves to complain about how terrible the current generation is, from smart phones to our being "entitled" about everything (because God forbid we just want to eat, amirite?). So the next time an old person tries to pull that crap on you, just whip out this gallery of highly disturbing foods that the public actually used to consume throughout the 20th century, and we're betting that it'll shut down any and every argument they could possibly have about who the "best generation" is.
Do you ever just stop to think about how we're living in a dystopian nightmare and that life doesn't matter at all? You go to work every day to make money just to pay for your miserable life, and then you die without ever retiring. Enjoy these tidbits from our corporate overlords!
Job-hunting is hard enough without having to deal with complete and utter inadequacy at the hiring level. Like, come on people, get your sh*t together and at least set a decent example for your applicants! The following job ads will anger literally anyone who has any decent sense of grammar and punctuation. And we mean anyone. These are bad...
We have to admit that we have no idea how many of these people were trolling, but we kind of hope that all of them were for the sake of humanity... I'm not sure what to say about some of these ads from Craigslist.... People really will try to sell anything and everything nowadays all to make a buck. But I have to laud them for their gumption, because not everyone would be willing to get ribbed like this endlessly until the end of time. Or until the interwebz cease to exist.
