I have a confession to make: I wore a white dress to the first and only wedding I've ever been to. Granted, I was 8-years old, and the flower girl, and the bride helped pick out my dress. Although I got away with it then, I'll never be able to again. If there's one thing that Reddit has taught me is that wearing white at a wedding is a crime that will not be forgiven. I'm going to my first wedding since my flower girl debut this weekend, and I'm kind of nervous that the pink dress I picked out…

There's always that one retired Karen who has all the time in the world to go to the local Michaels every other day with a new stack of coupons. Every cashier knows their Karen very well and holds their breath whenever Karen is about to choose which checkout line to terrorize. u/Neat_Warthog2633 recently shared a short and sweet story about a local Karen who came in hot, making demands about stacking coupons and senior discounts. She even asked the manager over (shocking!), who maliciously comp…

Letting regular people write restaurant reviews was largely a mistake. And I say this as a recovering Yelper. Before I started working in the restaurant industry, Yelp was an outlet for me. It allowed me to share my Very Important opinion with other citizens. I'd write paragraphs about a breakfast burrito, cringey raps about the best pizzeria near my office. And while I mostly wrote favorable reviews of establishments, occasionally I would go in on a spot that was disappointing in both the food…

I often wonder if social media is making people stupider or if it's just exposing the stupidity that was there all along. I'm inclined to believe the latter is true, but one thing is for sure—Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram aren't raising any IQs. And this isn't to say that I'm better than anyone else. On the contrary—I've posted some very dumb takes in my lifetime. Some of the dumbest. That's why I feel entitled speak bluntly on the matter. Humans may be the most intelligent species on the pla

Anyone who has worked as a waiter knows that people who don't tip are the worst. In the United States, many waiters only get paid $2 hourly and, therefore, only survive on tips. Some restaurants don't even pay their servers an hourly wage. This is basically common knowledge at this point, so for most people, not tipping is simply out of the question. But there are always those people who get angry for the insistence that they tip. I find that these come from two camps. The first camp is Boomers…

Homeowners associations have a bad reputation for being annoying as hell, and for good reason. Of course, not all HOAs enforce some of the dumbest rules imaginable, but there are enough painfully petty HOAs out there to tarnish the names of the rest. Stories like u/3-2-1-backup 's are a delight for anyone who absolutely hates their HOA. In a recent r/maliciouscompliance post, u/3-2-1-backup recounts the time he checked the oil of his car in his friend's driveway. It was an act that took all of…

There are very few places where adults are punished for acting a fool . You can't scream and yell at work or the airport. That's it. Technically, you can, but it can have incredibly dire consequences for your life. Everywhere else, yelling at people because you're mildly irritated is not only common but often condoned. When somebody yells about their food at a restaurant, said restaurant is likely to comp their order, thereby validating the bad behavior. Constant adult temper tantrums can ruin…

Karens rarely think before they throw a tantrum—often resulting in an epic backfire—and the star Karen of this redditor's story is no exception. For some reason, OP's backyard shed offended their Karen neighbor so much that she snitched on them to the city for supposedly building a shed that was larger than the permitted maximum. Not only did an inspector ensure them that their shed wasn't breaking any rules, they found out through the experience that they could build an even bigger, better she…

In what world is it okay to come into someone's home (who you barely know) and start following their kids around and telling them what they can and cannot do? u/YouDontKnowMyKid explains in a recent r/amitheasshole post that this is exactly a guest did in her home. A friend of OP's sister, who she'd only met a few times, decided it was totally normal to follow OP's son around and scold him for trying to use his own kitchen. When confronted, the woman defended herself by explaining that she's a…

Flying with kids is so nerve-wracking. The most stressful part is gauging whether your kids will cry or have tantrums inside an enclosed metal tube for three hours. The second biggest challenge is keeping them occupied, which is much easier nowadays with tablets and iPads. A tertiary concern might be that your kids could make a mess on the plane. Luckily, if they don't throw up or have an accident, most messes are easy to pick up! At least, so we think. Semi-famous people are obsessed with twee…

If you told us a few years ago that insane Karens would still be a hot topic, we might not believe you, and we would definitely not want to believe you. Rage filled, entitled people are a plague upon the world, and it seems like that's especially true here in the United State s as well as across the pond in the United Kingdom. During the darkest days of the Covid-19 pandemic, it seemed like mentions of Karens and their insane meltdowns were popping up every hour, so obviously the same is true f…

There's no shortage of people who strut around like the whole universe revolves around them, and those people are mad annoying (especially if you work in the service industry). But it can be pretty hilarious when someone is entitled to their own detriment, or when choosing beggars get taxed extra for their rudeness. For example, when I used to bartend back in the day, I enjoyed being generous to customers for no reason. It felt good to improve some random stranger's day with a free drink or sma…
