‘Is this even legal?'… ‘Yep': Tenant's HOA fees jump from $700 to an outrages $1,600 per month, so do you blame insurance companies or the HOA?

The housing market is insane right now, that's pretty common knowledge at this point. But have you dived into the property insurance crisis? (Feels like everything is in crisis mode these days…) Turns out it's not just the price to purchase a house that has been disgustingly inflated, but also the price to keep and maintain your home. I mean, with the price of gas and eggs these days, are you even surprised that something as money hungry as insurance companies have raised their prices? One tena…

'I just lost it laughing': Karenzilla accosts a minimum wage worker and tries to steal another customer's snow tires; gets put in her place and run out of the store

Snow season is upon us in the northern States and like they do every season, some residents seem to have forgotten the importance of appropriate snow-gear. Somehow every year, there are procrastinators (who are apparently incapable of checking the weather forecast) that are neglecting to make appropriate arrangements for the upcoming snow days. Karens everywhere are ready to accost their local minimum wage workers, morphing into their final form as the rudest, most entitled customers in town.

'All she does is pitch fits': Karen Mom calls the cops on her 5-year-old daughter for crying, officer arrests Karen

Just because you don't know how to parent doesn't mean you can just dial 9-1-1 on your five-year-old! Seriously, what was this impatient Karen thinking when she thought the best way to discipline her child for stomping around the room was to call the police five times and have them deal with it? News flash: all five-year-olds have the occasional behavioral fit, and if you really need a second pair of hands, consider working with her teachers or a professional. Otherwise, you're wasting time and…

he last place you want to push the limits on security protocol is the airport. Yet, for some reason, people still feel entitled to their own comforts. Sorry Bub, but if we're all taking our shoes off and being patted down by an angry TSA agent, you gotta do it too.

'Turns out the admission was really important': Insurance lawyer refuses to download video software to help his client, realizes his mistake in the courtroom

This lawyer was all set to lose an open and shut case, until another attorney made a huge mistake . One of the first things your parents probably told you after you learned to drive was how to act if you ever get into a car accident. After making sure everyone is okay, you inspect your car and take photos, call the police, and phone up your insurance. And one major thing to know is that you shouldn't say sorry to the other person, because in a legal sense, it shows that you're admitting fault o…

'I'm a lion and a king': Guy gets rejected after three dates, goes on unhinged text rant

Bad breakups may come with the territory when we're talking about dating, but no one could have been prepared for this dude's reaction. He really goes through the full range of human emotion, calling himself a loser one second and then calling himself a lion and a king the next. First of all, a lion and a king? Who is he, Simba?! It's hard to read this cringe exchange without thinking of your own similar experience because everyone has had one. Heck, I've been on both sides of a breakup, but I'…

'He's contradicted himself... his face went bright red': Retail employee begins clocking in four minutes late every day to protest boss's time-clock policy

How bold of this company to take a few minutes of every employee's day for free! U/afazihdob had a great workplace tale to share from their time working in retail. The OP laments that although they worked at numerous retail chains in their career, their bosses at one store were notoriously strict about latenesses. If I were ever a manager at a retail or food place, I wouldn't be able to take clocking in seriously at all. I just don't think it's the end of the world if an employee is two minutes…

At the very least, life's many inconveniences can provide fodder for second-hand entertainment. Obviously, when you are being confronted with something mildly infuriating, as many folks expressed via this Reddit thread , you don't feel entertained in the moment. You probably feel enraged, cheated, and ready to spontaneously combust. However, after taking a moment to breathe, you just might realize that the best thing you can do in this situation is to life at the whole thing. Otherwise, it migh…

‘I want him fired right now!’ […] ‘Ma'am, he doesn't work here': Electrician shopping at a hardware store becomes the main focus of a Karen customer's tantrum

Have you ever been thrust into the universe a Karen lives in? It's quite a bizarre place. It seems that logic does not exist in this universe and you must be a mindless worker bee for the Karen. It's obviously not a real reality that sane people live in, and yet entitled Karens all over the world seem to believe that is where we all live. It's quite mind blowing , to be honest. A blue collar electrician recently accidentally walked into the world of a Karen. He was shopping at a hardware store…

'[I] let the air out': Guy gets even with aggressively parked lifted truck driver who parked too close to his vehicle

There's something about driving vehicles that gets that “monkey rage” part of our brain all riled up, just simmering there, ready to do unspeakably feral things as if we're suddenly no more socially developed than a caveman during the caveman days… If you ask an expert (I'm not one), they'll probably tell you that it has something to do with the degree of separation we experience when we're cruising around in the relative safety of our own two-ton metal box that is continually propelled by a se…

'I was called into my bosses office... there was a printout of my post': 25+ Oversharing employees whose social media posts got them fired

Your boss might be more internet-savvy than you know. While going through the hiring process, it's crucial to ensure your social media presence is squeaky clean. Maybe you remember a few tasteless tweets from ages ago, or you have a few hot takes that shouldn't have been shared to Facebook. Even if those posts are old, they aren't harmless. Anyone who knows how to do control+F, allowing you to search a webpage by phrases, can find any salacious information on your profile. Even a quick Google s…

'Tit-for-Tat shopping cart game': Quick-witted dude starts parking lot shenanigans after he ends up crashing into entitled customer's disregarded shopping cart

There are little things everyone can do to make society a better place. Things that cost nothing and hardly take any effort. One of these things is putting the shopping cart back into the shopping cart carrel after you are finished using it. Unfortunately, there are too many lazy and/or entitled people who think after they are finished using the shopping cart, it's not their job nor their duty to put it back. So where does the shopping cart end up after these kinds of people use them? Usually r…

'How should I respond': Worker contacted by employer 20 years after they were fired seeking important files

As much as getting fired stinks… at least there's a certain finality to it. Hey, you no longer have an income, which will soon affect your ability to afford food and a roof over your head, but at least you no longer have to get up at 5 a.m. every morning just to put on stuffy clothing, grab a hurried breakfast on your way out the door, and sit in traffic for an hour. Only to sit in traffic again on your way home after sitting in a noisy “open office” for nine hours.

'There’s been over 2 dozen people sending quitting emails': Employee sees toxic manager yell at intern, sends company-wide email about it, causes mass quitting

This employee may have had enough with his company, but in the end, his toxic boss had no one to blame but himself. After all, it was the boss that went on a ridiculous rant in the first place. He gave an intern a hard time for asking to leave early because she was going to have to put down her cat at the vet's office. The boss had absolutely no remorse for her situation and decided to yell at her because he thought he could get away with it. This Redditor saw the encounter in plain sight and s…

Simple problems require simple solutions, and sometimes, that solution need not be any more complex than sitting on top of (or just beside) the problem. Some background knowledge for those unacquainted: the airline mentioned in the story does not have predetermined seats, and seats are determined like a massive game of musical chairs and are based on who can get to the seats first. Honestly, we have no idea who thought these free-for-alls were a good idea. It's crazy to think that something as…

Oh no, if it isn't the consequences of your actions! What a surprise… NOT. Yeah, I brought back that joke. Because it truly should not be a surprise. When you do something, like flake on committed plans, then you're going to have to suffer the consequences of your actions. Funny enough, this employee was aghast when she was faced with the outcome of her actions. She no-called/no-showed for her restaurant shift.
