While the living may have a say in their funeral plans before they die, the truth is that they're more for their loved ones who are grieving. Unfortunately, sometimes those people cannot be trusted to behave appropriately at what is supposed to be a respectful and somber affair. Redditor u/Bankrupt-R-Us has provided us with ample proof after soliciting r/AskReddit for some serious funeral horror stories. These shameful tales are filled with sorrow, cringe, and most importantly: reminders that you shouldn't be an asshole during intensely personal and painful moments. 

We know that roasts involve people literally asking for it, but also...why? Guess some people are just confident enough to not be legitimately and deeply hurt by it, and honestly we're pretty envious of that. This round of Reddit roasts takes the form of insulting sketches (made by SketchyCrab) that highlight the victim's worst features!

It may not be Halloween, but that doesn't mean we can't get our fix of spooky stories in the off-season. Scary stories are one of those things that most people enjoy hearing, but not experiencing themselves. They may give you nightmares but at the end of the day, that adrenaline rush is totally worth it. Now onto the creepy stories! And check out even more on eBaum's World!

We've been seeing a lot of wholesome content lately. It makes sense. When the world feels bleak, most people need a little positivity to remind them that even the pain is temporary. This post is not for these people. Reddit user u/mc_gnome took to r/AskReddit requesting people share some 'unfun facts' on the thread. The responses weren't just 'unfun,' they're actually mind-blowingly morbid and depressing. But some people, like us, enjoy learning of the cruelty of nature. And these posts are for you.

For those of us who aren't professional comics, attaining perfect comedic timing and delivery is a moment to be relished and appreciated. Unfortunately for the Redditors taking part in this thread, their brilliance went woefully unnoticed. We're here to bring them the glory that they so deserve. 

When you've lived in one place your whole life, you get used to the various customs and behaviors that are standard in your country. So much so that traveling abroad can be a huge culture shock for a lot of people. These American Redditors are sharing the things they realized are completely unique to American culture.

Red flags are one thing. But to make someone straight up walk out of a date is another. Sh*t's gotta be serious. Redditor u/PorridgeBeforeBed took to the r/AskMen subreddit to ask members to share their ejection-worthy date stories. We'll give you some spoilers: a lot of people are addicted to their phones, a lot of people are looking for free meals, and others don't seem to understand that a date is between two people. The stories are disappointing, but not seriously surprising. So strap in, get your reading glasses, and learn what not to do on a romantic evening.

You're gonna need an ice pack after you read these sick burns from Twitter, Reddit and more!

Baby Yoda took the internet by storm in the Fall, and there are still scads of memes devoted to that tiny green alien. It would seem that The Mandalorian birthed meme immortality with this character. Most people seem pretty pleased to scroll past the critter on their timelines, but that's not the case for everyone. 

Earlier today it came to our attention (Thanks, Know Your Meme) that there's actually an entire subreddit dedicated to the hatred of Baby Yoda. The memes on the site are either violent attacks on the Yoda clone, or cringey reposts of horrifyingly basic Baby Yoda memes. While we don't hate the cute character, we're fascinated and extremely entertained by all this contempt. We've put together some mean-spirited examples of the hate, but we highly recommend visiting the subreddit for more surprisingly brutal content. 

Rejected dudes on the internet are famously good at taking the "Nice guys finish last" way too seriously. And r/niceguys is a subreddit that is extremely good at documenting these "nice guys" and their cringey antics. This gallery is full of memes made by bitter incels and a whole lot of enraged DMs from guys who need some lessons on how to treat women like human beings. And if you need a palate cleanser after all this cringe, check out some of one of our wholesome meme galleries. 

Growing up I thought that my parents were harsh. They rarely let me attend sleepovers, I never went to sleep away camp with the cool kids, and anything television beyond PBS was an absolute no-no. I've walked around with a chip on my sheltered shoulder ever since. Until yesterday, when I saw an enlightening thread on r/AskReddit.

Reddit user u/ctsom took to the subreddit and asked fellow redditors to describe the weird rules they grew up with as kids. The customs and boundaries range from extremely strict to extremely weird. And like me, you may end up feeling like your upbringing was relatively normal.

The self-importance of influencers seems to have no end. Some influencers demand free hotel stays, others are more into free wedding photography, but one thing's for sure: they're incredibly entitled and suffer from serious delusions of grandeur. Today we got an extra large taste of this abhorrent attitude in the form of an r/AskReddit thread. U/peaches1687 asked the subreddit's photographers to share the most outrageous requests they've received from influencers. They (and people in other career sectors) were happy to oblige.

False advertising is never cool, but there's something about false food advertising that kinda next-level stings. Looking forward to a pizza and then discovering it lacks cheese or boasts just one circle of pepperoni is practically devastating. There's even a subreddit dedicated to this kind of betrayal. On r/foodscam you'll find tragic lies involving pizza, sandwiches, and even "crookies" - cookies that are woefully misrepresented in their packaging. We've put together some of the more horrifying crimes against consumers from the subreddit, but there's loads more where these come from. 

Back in 2018 we started seeing dank memes featuring a version of Wojak who was later given the name "Doomer." The character is a depressed 23 year old chain smoker with a decidedly dark view of life. Earlier this week we started to see a resurgence of these Doomer memes featuring a new face - a goth girl sporting an edgy choker and rosy cheeks. These "Doomer Girl" or "Doomerette" memes started popping up everywhere, even on some pretty basic Instagram accounts.  The jokes range range from gaming to painfully ironic anti-memes. And they're all pretty good.

While holidays like Christmasobnoxiously push capitalism and materialism, there's something unarguably nice about receiving a thoughtful gift from a person you love. These gifts, and some of the stories behind them, do not fall into this category. From dead birds to bags of hair, these anecdotes from Redditors are guaranteed to make you appreciate those socks your mom insists on giving you every year.
