Holy mother of entitled a-holes, y'all!
We don't like stereotyping people, but we all know the classic trope of the "bridezilla" who has to have everything her way and will stop at absolutely nothing to get it. To an extent, we sort of understand that behavior - planning a wedding is an incredibly stressful thing after all. However, this insane bride took the whole "entitled" thing waaay too far. It's really no surprise that she's on her third marriage!
Tumblr is a place of unexpected joy and amusement, so it's wholly unsurprising that some serious magical genius would be borne of its pages of insanity. User rasec-wizzlbang suggested a world in which Harry Potter and Willy Wonka coexist - and the latter is absolutely loathed by the Ministry of Magic. If you're a fan of either, you'll be more than capable of suspending your disbelief. And it will be absolutely worth it.
Earlier this week writer Caroline Moss asked Twitter to share moments of their lives that seemed more like a bad movie than something IRL. She offered up a tale of being broken up for "not being Jewish enough" while at a National concert. During the set. Many of the responses to her request dwarf her experience in the cringe zone - here are some of the most painful tales we could dig up.
Some people are just unobservant by nature, but these parents took the word "unobservant" to a whole - let's just say - "hare-raisingly" new level? Lettuce commence with the story! Or hey, you can click away if you don't carrot all. Scroll down to understand what the hell we're talking about here with these stupid puns!
The cluck was certainly ticking for these people trying to buy this water cooler! Moving aside from the cheep chicken puns, sometimes you really hit the jackpot with amusing ads on the internet. This guy offered a pretty darn good deal on his old water cooler, and people took him up on it!
Honestly, how do scammers think we're going to fall for this sh*t? Like, at least make your messages and stories be a little more believable! This Danish guy took it upon himself to troll this hilarious scammer, supposedly named "Sandra Jones" with lyrics to "Hello" by Adele.
Apparently she isn't a fan.
Perusing r/AskReddit is often enlightening and educational, but this post from today got us especially good. One curious user asked bartenders on the subreddit to share their weirdest work stories - and they do not disappoint. Now, more than ever, we salute the people who give us alcohol and tolerate all of our crazy.
While Tumblrhas been getting a lot of attention for its past as a mecca for porn gifs and generally filthy content, the site was and is still home to some incredible content. From nerdy fandoms to terrible puns, it's easy to spend hours browsing the site and effectively scaping boredom. We did just that and brought the best post to you.
It can be really hard to come up with something cute and clever to send to your Tinder matches in order to keep them engaged. This guy definitely has the dating app game down to a science - he created an entire "choose your own adventure"-style story that clearly won over his match!
It happened: someone went off and decided to create "Moreos," which are either the best thing to ever exist in the snack universe, or the worst if you're this angry Tumblr user. We can't really imagine why on earth someone would get angry about having the power of more Oreo filling, but okay.
A scammer got trolled hard while allegedly trying to buy a barbecue pit from a lawyer who immediately caught on to his phony payment scheme. The scammer attempted to use a fake check, which would've given the him access to the lawyer's bank account, but instead, trolling hilarity ensued.
(Obvious) moral of the story? Never try to scam a lawyer.
