Planning a vacation? Don't make the same mistakes that these folks did. The fascinating thing about the beach is that it attracts the full spectrum of individuals: from the people who need a break to the people who need less of one, from the wise travelers to the foolish ones, and from the calm and collected types to the anxious souls who dream of rest and relaxation but cannot help themselves. Personally speaking, I fall into the lattermost category. I'm not the type of person who can easily r…

During our time on this earth it's pretty safe to say that, even through sheer force of chance alone, we've each witnessed some darn ridiculous things. In the same way that an infinite number of monkeys hitting keys at random could reproduce the entire works of Shakespeare, meeting an infinite number of individuals in your life means that you'll inevitably witness something incredibly stupid. While these individuals might not be breaking any records or winning any awards (save but one) for thei…

When you marry someone, you also marry their family. However, because you are now, in effect, friends with them as well, no one warns you about the lengthy list of unwelcome acquaintances you make along the way. The story that follows describes the frustrations of a spouse dealing with his wife's ‘friends’. The original poster (OP) finds himself in an extremely challenging predicament. His wife's friends are now just as much of a concern to him as his own, so he must entertain them in addition…

Some people just can't cook, and this list of 38 Complete Culinary Disasters is proof. Perfect for those who struggle with even boiling water, it captures the hilarious high jinks of kitchen misadventures. From cookies hard enough to be used as hockey pucks to pasta experiments that defy gravity, each meme is a testament to culinary ambitions gone awry. Encounter cakes that have sunk lower than the Titanic and pizzas that have become one with the oven tray. These mishaps remind us that while no…

There's something to be learned here about not taking things at face value and using a little common sense to draw a more logical conclusion. Often in life, things are simplified for us in order to cater to the lowest common denominator and, in the process, obfuscate the actual point of the information that was supposed to be communicated in the first place. An extreme example of this is our entire understanding of chemistry; we're taught from our days in middle school chem class—clear through…

We all have those days when life seems to be playing a cruel joke on us. You know, the kind of day where everything that can go wrong does go wrong. We've all been there, from spilling coffee on your white shirt to getting splashed by a passing car on a rainy day. But what separates the truly unlucky from the rest of us is their ability to laugh it off. These folks know that when life gives you lemons, you make lemonade. Or in their case, take a hilarious picture and share it with the world. An…

Sometimes in life, you give something your best shot, and sometimes that's still not enough. And that's just the way it goes. You're not going to be good at everything you try, and—heck, who is good at something on the first try anyway? Being good at something isn't always what it's about, which is something that we tend to forget in this era of side hustling and generally monitoring and capitalizing on everything we do. As Kurt Vonnegut was (supposedly) told, by his (supposed) own account, whe…

Life is full of surprises, changes, and unintentionally hilarious signs. People often say if you look carefully enough, there is beauty and levity everywhere. That may be true depending on your perspective and mentality, but one could also amend that statement to say that if you look carefully enough, you will find joy in humanity. Today when we say humanity, we specifically are referring to man's capacity for human error. Nowhere is that more obvious than man-made signs. These signs could be f…

If there's one thing everyone knows about the internet at this point, it's that people can be absolutely unhinged online. Regardless of whether or not they choose to remain anonymous, people seem to love to share their ridiculous opinions and “hot takes" on the world wide web for everyone else to pick apart, agree with, disagree with, retweet, repurpose, and even mock. It makes you wonder why we post anything at all anymore yet people will only keep posting. As we mentioned, these absolutely in…

Nice going there, chef! If you're a viewer of The Bear but you can't cook to save your life, you may have found yourself pretending to be Carmy in your tiny kitchen as you boil a pot of pasta to complete imperfection. The truth is that no matter how many times you choose to mumble “yes, chef or ”no, chef" while you're cooking, some hopeless wannabe cooks simply are not capable of improvement. It's the same for folks who can't exercise via running. Some people are just not meant for it. After al…

As employees, we're all just tools in the toolbox of our company. For utility purposes, we perform our function at work and then we clock out–it's simple. But as every worker knows, we all have one coworker on the roster who's not the sharpest tool in the shed.

You snooze, you lose
