Even in 2022, some people still have pretty medieval views on gender roles, like one redditor's girlfriend and her parents who believe that every man should be able to fix things around the house. Do they also believe their daughter should quit her good job and do all the housework and cooking? I don't really want to know the answer to that. When u/housework1998 vented to r/amitheasshole about his situation, redditors were overwhelmingly on OP's side.

I hear that planning a wedding is difficult. Not just because there's so many people that are impossible to please, and not just because it's a timesuck. It's also expensive - which makes the already-agonizing task of crafting a guest list all the more difficult. Who, praytell, is worthy of your special day? Generally speaking, it's close friends, family, and maybe a few of your colleagues, and they receive an invite and respectfully RSVP accordingly. Recently, however, Twitter user @barrybingb…

It's clever

It's not a crime to be sappy. While I may seem to have a hardened exterior if you catch me on the street, I'm probably thinking sweet things about my cats, my boyfriend, or my family. As long as I'm not heading to work. Then I'm thinking about murder. These days, people tend to enjoy memes that are a bit self-deprecating . The memes we love feature dark humor and truths about the state of the world we live in. And wholesome meme s tend to veer on the side of cute animals and drawings. They don'…

Sup, I’m Chad Chadington

If you've been online at all since 2015, you have likely encountered discourse about gender and dating that is, at best, kind of strange and, at worst, explicitly violent. These micro-discourses can be summed up with the all-encompassing phrase, “The Gender Wars.” Now, if you're a normal person and not extremely online, you might wonder what that is. According to a most reliable source, The Gender Wars occur when “you have women pushing the narrative that all men are misogynistic, cheaters, abu…

So much regret.

Not shy, just not interested

"Eyyy, Tony Pizza!" If this is how my partner greeted me, I would be ecstatic. It embodies everything I love: a New York accent, an Italian name, and an Italian food . This weekend I learned that not everyone is quite as forgiving and open-minded when it comes to pet names. And you know what? That's okay. Everyone is entitled to their own comfort in the nickname department. But once you reveal your contempt for a moniker in a Reddit thread, you're fair game. And you just might go viral.

As a wise Sprouse twin once said, "In case you haven’t noticed, I'm weird. I’m a weirdo. I don't fit in. And I don't want to fit in. Have you ever seen me without this stupid hat on? That's weird." That Riverdale character was right; his existence is weird. If you told 8-year-old me that my favorite characters from Archie comics would be turned into a gritty CW show, I would have said, “what is the CW?” Jughead Jones claiming that wearing a beanie makes him a social outcast in the year of our l…

So bizarre

Entitled rich people who treat others like garbage just because they make less money are some of the worst people on the planet. When redditor u/NoTGoingThank was invited to go to Cabo with her boyfriend's family , she didn't expect to get cruelly singled out for her blue-collar background. Luckily, a kind stranger gave OP the encouragement she needed to break off the toxic relationship . She really dodged a bullet.

Ulterior motives aren't always bad. Sometimes they're pretty benevolent. Especially when we're talking about dating. While it may seem innocent (or even boring), texting something as simple as “Hey”

In rare instances, age gap discourse can be funny.

The agony of being the third wheel is a well-documented one. I actually consider myself to be a professional third wheel. A professional tricycle modification, if you will. If I want to hang out, I'm going to hang out - relationships be damned. Not everyone has such an agreeable position regarding hanging out with people who are involved. And I get it. There's the PDA, the inside jokes, the baby talk. It can all get pretty unnerving. But trust me when I say that it could be much, much worse. Tw…
