Not everyone can be an expert on the Star Wars prequels, and that's okay. Just leave that to us (or the memes, anyway). This frustrated boyfriend was just trying to figure out exactly which prequel his girlfriend was talking about, to hilarious results. But hey, at least she tried?
funny stories
Dan Milano, a senior producer at Now This News, created this hilarious Twitter thread of his brother building an artistic masterpiece of a Cybertruck at Thanksgiving dinner using mashed potatoes. And honestly we have to admit that we like it better than the real thing - at least this one you can eat. Sorry, Elon.
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!
Here we are in 2019 and pyramid schemes (AKA multi-level marketing companies) still exist. A pyramid scheme is a company that requires its "consultants" to purchase kits from the company in order to sell to family and friends, often on social media. Of course, majority of these consultants end up not making any sort of profit whatsoever. You'll recognize these people as the ones who call themselves "boss babes" and encourage you to message them about this "great opportunity."
In this particular story, someone calls out an Acti Labs consultant for being a part of a pyramid scheme, to which the consultant throws a bit of a fit.
Sometimes smart people do very stupid things, and that's okay because we can't all be geniuses in our off time. Everyone's injured themselves in moronic ways, such as sneezing and hitting your head against the sink and ending up with a baseball-sized goose egg on your forehead. True story, sadly.
As our society leans into social media, institutions such as police and fire departments are showing some skill in the way they embrace channels like Facebook and Twitter. The North Ridgeville Police Department in Texas has proved that they are quite skilled at using the former. Yesterday the Department's Facebook account posted a tale of their wholesome whirlwind of a quest to corral a renegade cow. It's detailed, it's funny, and most of all, it's sweet. - a very happy respite from the darker police stories we've seen lately. G
We'd like to give these scammers the benefit of the doubt and assume that they don't know they're involved in a scam. Either that or someone who's down on their luck might resort to desperate measures to earn a bit of extra cash. Either way, this dude definitely picked the wrong person to mess with!
We've never seen petty like this before and honestly, this story has so many levels of petty that we're gonna have to just let it do all the talking. All we can really say is that it involves world-renowned a-hole Anish Kapoor, his "bean" (aka Cloud Gate), and the world's blackest black shade of paint.
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.
