Funny Tweets From People Who Have No Clue What Day of the Week It Is

Keeping up with life is exhausting. And sometimes there’s just so much going on (or so little) that it’s hard to remember what day of the week it is.

Is it a weekend? Taco Tuesday? It’s anybody’s guess! Does it even matter anymore?

If all of your days are starting to run together, just know that you’re not alone. Here are 15 of the funniest tweets from people who have no clue what day it is.

1. Even kids are confused.

That’s gotta be a letdown.

2. People are drinking whenever they feel like it.

He makes a good point.

3. Other people don’t really care what day it is.

What is time, anyway?

4. Maybe watching the news will help.

Hmm, maybe not.

5. Why can’t Taco Tuesday be every day?

Seriously. Who just eats tacos one day of the week, anyway?

6. This is some serious time-travel shit.

We’re not really following you, friend.

7. Who showers anymore?

That is just so much effort.

8. Holidays are now meaningless.

Maybe they were meaningless all along.

9. Sleeping schedules are also way off these days.

You get a nap, you get a nap, you get a nap!

10. That feeling when you completely messed up the day.

Hope he didn’t miss any appointments! Oh wait. There’s nowhere to go.

11. Phones to the rescue!

Has any piece of technology proved more valuable?

12. They all feel the same.

Eating a snack seems like a good way to handle this situation.

13. It’s just normal now.

Nobody even blinks an eye anymore.

14. Can’t go anywhere, yet this is strangely familiar.

Woooooo Vegas! Except this doesn’t feel quite as fun.

15. There are only three days now.

What a smart kid.

We hope these people regain their sense of time soon. Or maybe not. Who cares, really? Go ahead and chuck your day planner into the garbage and throw caution to the wind. It’ll be super liberating!

Are you having trouble keeping track of time lately? We’d love to hear from you!

Dog’s Long Snout and Overbite Are Ridiculously Adorable

Some dogs are fluffy. Others are built like a hippopotamus. And then there are borzoi, or Russian wolfhounds, that historic breed of dogs with long legs and an even longer snout (aka snoot).

Eris the borzoi is kind of a big deal. She has nearly 200,000 Instagram followers who love the daily posts that highlight her, erm, assets.

Like her huge overbite! Look at that amazing snout!

She may look super regal and elegant from afar, but step a little closer and you’ll see she’s really just a big goof with a huge personality.

All the snuggles… with the blankie.

But more importantly, please just look at this long snoot! It’s soooo long!

She also loves cake, so there’s that. But then again, who DOESN’T like cake… amirite?

And she also loves hanging out with her BFF, which looks like a pittie… but all we know is that opposites attract because Eris has hair EVERY damn where.

Just look how tall she is!

But again, that snoot though:

What’s not to love? Eris is not only adorable, but obviously leading a well-rounded and super fun life. Just like doggos are supposed to do!

If you need a little more cuteness in your life, we highly recommend your check our her feed. It’s chock full of ALL the fun doggo things!

What’s your favorite dog breed? Or do you prefer a Heinz 57 mutt from the local animal shelter? Why?

Let us know in the comments! We’d love to hear from you!

People Share the Moment They Realized They Weren’t a Kid Anymore

It’s really strange when you realize that you’re an ADULT.

You’re locked into the kid role for so many years and then BAM!, one day you’re in charge of your own destiny and you have to make actual decisions that will impact your life and your future.

It’s crazy!

And sometimes you come to that realization in an instant.

Let’s check out some interesting stories from folks on AskReddit.

1. Liberating and scary.

“Just turned 19 and my mother passed earlier this January. No father figure to rely on.

The transition from, “I’m going to school with friends!” to “I’m working all the time just to not be homeless!” is a sharp one. The freedom is liberating and incredibly scary at the same time.”

2. A lot of those moments.

“When I was 19, I made I made a reference to one of my favorite shows from when I was 8-12, and a couple of 13 year olds listening had no idea what I was talking about.

I’m learning that those moments never stop happening.”

3. Better get busy!

“I was 23, no high school diploma, and a security guard doing access control at an ice cream plant.

I realized that if I didn’t get out of there and do something, I would be 50 in a flash, and not seen or done anything worthwhile.

My life would have peaked at 20 and the rest of my time amounting to little more than waiting to die.”

4. Sad.

“The morning after my parent’s divorce when I was 10. My father was an ultra helicopter/tiger parent. My mother was a neglectful abuser. We ended up with my mother.

My siblings and I stood in front of the garage door for an hour before realizing our mother wasn’t going to take us to school/daycare. I ended up carrying my siblings to their respective locations before making it to my own school by lunchtime.

I picked up bus signup slips that afternoon and was forced to forge my mother’s signature for the first time to try and get transportation. Later that week I also was forced to forge free lunch slips for us all because no one was going to make us food anymore.”

5. No more fun and games.

“When I flunked out of undergrad, and I got a job in a factory building electrical machinery.

I’d see my reflection of myself in overalls with my toolbox, and it hit me hard that all the fun and games from HS were over, and I was not “Joe cool” anymore.”

6. A weird feeling.

“I visited my old high school a year or so after graduation to say hi to the teachers, see the theater again, and..it hit me all of the sudden that I didn’t belong there.

That was weird.”

7. Time to call Mom.

“Getting asked questions at the dentist that my mom normally answered.

Just stood there like an idiot and said, “let me call my mother real quick”.

I’m only 18 but I’m feeling it already.”

8. Rough days.

“When I was 18 and found out my first child was on the way. The impact of poor decisions was going to alter the life of someone beyond myself at that point. Since that day, I’ve never been unemployed.

I’ve never not had a roof over my head for my child to call home. I’ve never spent frivolously and not been able to provide her with meals, clothing, etc.

It was rough early on. We were poor. Lived in some sketchy neighborhoods in shitholes to start out. I started my own business when she was about age 6, by the time she was 8 years old we moved into our first home.

I ended up with custody a few years later after a divorce. Things became even more important to me to always make the right decision financially to ensure her stability. Unfortunately, the financial aspect was all I focused on and wasn’t always a good father.

End result, today we have a shit relationship and this is my fault.”

9. Used to be easy.

“Having to settle my Dad’s Estate after he died. Life had always seemed pretty easy until this point. I was suddenly buried with endless tasks, responsibilities, and decisions.

Also a lot of paperwork that I couldn’t even comprehend. It fucking sucked.”

10. People my age…

“Many people my age are starting to have/already have had children, and people aren’t acting like it’s a big deal

People my age are getting married

People my age are starting their careers

Many people my age have moved out of their parents’ house already

I will be starting my last year of college in August.”

11. It’s over now!

“When my best friend and I browsed through the furniture and house decor aisles of Target for fun.”

12. I’m in charge now.

“Stepping into a classroom full of students, having them all look up at me, and realizing I was the one in charge for the next 45 minutes.

Then realizing that after they left, roughly 25 more would cycle in and that this process would repeat several more times during the day for 180 more days for the next several decades.”

13. Making moves.

“I drove from Lexington, KY to Atlanta, GA, from college to my first job. It was in an old station wagon packed to the ceiling.

Spent the night in a Red Roof Inn realizing I knew no one with my entire life in that car. That night I was no longer a kid.”

14. This happens to a lot of people.

“When my parents were talking about politics, and I realized I knew more about what they were talking about than they did.”

15. Evicted.

“When my family got evicted from our house.

My friend and I had been paying rent to my father for 6 months and we lived ‘on our own’ in the basement suite. One morning a bailiff showed up, told us to grab our winter coats (it was -20 C in January), and that we’d been receiving eviction notices for months.

Turns out my friend was friend’s with the bailiff’s daughter through work and explained our predicament. He told us they would start out on the upper level, so she drove me over to a truck rental place and I rented a moving truck for the first time.

Luckily we managed to empty out the basement quickly and brought the truck to her parents’ house until we figure out what to do.

We wound up renting a suite in a house across the street from the evicted place 3 weeks later. My cat that had run off in all the chaos showed up one day at the new suite.

Not long after all that my father showed up at my doorstep wanting to stay with us – turning him away was the most ‘adult’ thing I did in the situation.

We were nineteen.”

16. A very serious one.

“When I found out I had to choose between being dropping out of college and homeless, or going back to live with my abusive family. It really hit me hard that I didn’t know what to do, but knew I had to do something.

At the time, those weren’t the only realistic options. But I was a kid and didn’t know that. It took a lot of learning and making mistakes over and over for me to really understand that adulthood meant making it up as I went.

I did end up dropping out of college initially to work full time and get an apartment. And now, 8 years later, I am in a way better place than the scared kid I was before.”

Now we want to hear from you!

In the comments, tell us about the moment YOU realized you weren’t a kid anymore.

Please and thank you!

Recreated Movie Scenes at the Actual Filming Locations

Talk about great attention to detail.

Some people call themselves movie fans and then there are people out there like this.

The folks behind an Instagram page called Secret Famous Places venture out to find actual filming locations for movies and TV shows and then they recreate the scenes with stunning detail.

And they travel far and wide to get their photos, as you’re about to see.

Let’s take a look at some examples of the locations they’ve captured. This is a lot of fun!

1. La La Land.

Even the tie is swaying the right way.

View this post on Instagram

It's time for La La Land! We visited #LosAngeles in California to find the famous filming location of La La Land, where Ryan Gosling and Emma Stone started dancing ? You can see there is no bench and the street lamps were decoration, too. But "Cathy's Corner" (name of this place at Griffith Park) has an amazing view over Los Angeles. You can reach this place by a 30 minutes walk starting at Griffith Observatorium, next to the "Hollywood" sign. The bush on the left site was cut down. But the best fun fact is: I was wearing Judith's shirt…I forgot mine at home…once again (#DowntonAbbey). The tie is clipped at the shirt ? Judith had to buy a yellow dress. This time a easy outfit for both of us. . . . #LaLaLand #emmastone #ryangosling #la #losangelescalifornia #california #visitcalifornia #griffithpark #hollywood #lovestory #fashion #cathyscorner #USA #travel #travelusa #filminglocation #secretfamousplaces #travellog #dance #wanderlust #explore #traveller #hollywood #oscar #hollywoodhills #discoverLA #worldplaces #watchthisinstagood #BestVacations

2. The road to Skyfall.

Beautiful scenery.

View this post on Instagram

Beautiful nature at Glen Etive, where James Bond and M are looking down to "Skyfall". It was an amazing view, but the weather was against us – three days of rain and stormy wind…It was quiet cold. But the view was absolutely worth it. It is a single track road for many kilometers and we drove with a camper…but it is possible to reach the destination. Fun fact: At the end of Glen Etive you arrive at Loch Etive, which is directy the sea. And this place was the filming location of Harry Potter…photo coming soon ?

3. P.S. I Love You.

On location in Ireland.

View this post on Instagram

We visited the beautiful country Ireland to take a picture of "P.S. I love you"! It was a surprise for Judith because it was her birthday. So I planned everything, even the clothes, which was quite difficult ?And Judith's outfit was a little bit…different…? . . Location: It is a small street near Dublin in an area called Wicklow Mountains – next to "Sally Gap". The exact coordinates are 53,1280703, -6,2922800. The street is still used, so we had to hurry up to take the photos when there was no car. But when you take a closer look, there are no stripes on the road. The reason: it was refurbished. You can find the whole story of our trip in the highlights of our instastory. . . @hilaryswank and @gerardbutler we hope you like the photo ? . . Original photo: Warner Bros.

4. Thelma & Louise.

In the good, old USA!

View this post on Instagram

We are back in #Germany and this is our first photo from our trip to the USA! ? We visited the beautiful Arches Nationalpark in Utah for a filming location of Thelma and Louise ? But just because we asked you for ideas of filming locations some weeks ago. Thanks to @irisnhf for this great suggestion and all the other answers. It is an awesome nationalpark with great nature and cool trails. @utahunique. The rock formation in the background is still the same, so it was quite easy to find it – luckily, because it was extremely hot ? You can find the making-of of the photoshooting in our Insta-Story ? @susansarandon we hope you like the photo ?

5. Forrest Gump.

An iconic shot if there ever was one.

View this post on Instagram

This time we have been in the USA to visit the filming location of Forrest Gump! It is our first picture with people we met there…so the photo shooting was very exciting ? . Location: Run Forrest, Run!", a famous quote and quite famous place! You can clearly see the Monument Valley Area with the beautiful red sand and stones. It is a very long road in Arizona and really hot out there…and it was October ? The silhouette of the huge rocks in the background is exactly the same, only the sign is new ? . . Clothes: We didn't have a cap like Forrest. So Judith draw the company logo ? The jacket was from a friend. Thanks to @anubis.hes and sorry for sweating. It was very hot ? . . Actors: The problem was the crowd of people behind Forrest Gump. So we asked some guys from Thailand if they want to be our shooting partner. They were very ambitious to get a perfect photo ? A special thanks for your great support!! @namekesara @kch._.m @smioroa @wonatz @23mariott @kittaploy Whole making-of ?? instastory And @tomhanks, we hope you like the photo ?

6. The International.

In Milan, Italy.

7. All the way back to 1963.

Cary Grant and Audrey Hepburn.

View this post on Instagram

Audrey Hepburn, Paris and suuummer ? This time we covered "Charade" from 1963! This classic movie was recorded in Paris with the great Audrey Hepburn and her colleague Cary Grant. Can you see the different colour of the bridge? The movie was recorded 55(!) years ago and some things changed and others are still the same. The bridge is called "Pont au Double" and is very close to Notre Dame…it is quite busy and a lot of people watched us, especially Judith with her discreet colour ?? We found the red top and the skirt at a second hand shop. While we were driving to Paris, we "produced" the bobbles in Judith's top on our own and believe us – we never do this again ? It took a veeeery long time…10 of them were too hard, so in the end there were only 7 of them. It was a great place in Paris! ❤ Original photo: Universal Pictures #Paris #Charade #France #AudreyHepburn #CaryGrant #Classic #NotreDame #PontAuDouble #Style #Styleicone #seine #fashion #beauty #hollywood #cinema #secretfamousplaces #summer #travel #photography

8. A little Star Wars action.

Did you know this was filmed in Italy?

View this post on Instagram

"Star Wars" – the second picture! We took this photo at Villa del Balbianello in Italy, Lake Como. It was absolutely worth it!! Though our clothes were a little bit embarrassing ? and a lot of people where watching ? the flowers in the front came from Germany ? we were afraid that there wouldn't be any flowers in may…so traveled with us to italy. Unfortunately it was so cold that the trees didn't have any leaves…? but: @natalieportman We hope you like the photo! More coming soon ? @villadelbalbianello Thank you for your support!

9. The Devil Wears Prada.

New York City on film!

View this post on Instagram

New Yoooooooork! ❤ We met a lot of friendly people who helped us finding the filming location of "The Devil Wears Prada". Thank you so much! . . Location: The original scene was recorded infront of the building where Meryl Streep and Anne Hathaway had their fashion agency (it is the McGraw-Hill Building next to #Rockefellercenter). We found it after asking a lot of people! . . Clothes: Anne Hathaway wears a green shirt with white elements on it. And here brown bag is a big Part in the picture, because she uses her telephone and don't know where to go in the scene. Judith has a similar bag and even the shirt, so it was easy for her to dress like Anne Hathaway ? . . Amazing City! If you have the chance to visit it, grab it. The people over there are great and very friendly ? . . @annehathaway we hope you like the photo! . .

10. Alien: Covenant.

Take in the beauty of New Zealand.

View this post on Instagram

One of the most beautiful filming locations we have seen so far – Alien: Covenant in New Zealand! . . Location: First we thought it was a scene at #MilfordSound, but in the end we found it next to a highway… puuh ? you can see in the original picture, that it was a rainy day with a lot of clouds. Our weather was quite windy and cold, but we saw the sun quite often. The original scene was recorded between huge mountains with a unbelievable wide area. No houses or people living there. A perfect filming location. And we found it! The mountains in the background are the same and even the forrest in the right side didn't changed. . . Clothed: Unfortunately they wear these "pretty" caps ? and so we wear it, too. ut the hardest part was the straw in the foreground. The filming team placed them of course more naturally. In the scene they were walking through ot. Our Problem was the wind Wind ist was a little bit too strong for this little decoration ? and it was pretty cold…but in the end we made it! ? Whole story on Youtube. . . @rsafilms perfect filming location! Great choice! . .

11. Downton Abbey.

People are obsessed with this show, so it only makes sense that they’d go there.

View this post on Instagram

Downton Abbey – we are in love with #highclerecastle. It was amazing!! ❤ People were watching because it looked like Robin asked me to marry him…? the reason: the tripod was too small…so we had to kneel down. And no: he didn't asked ? . . Location: The original scene was filmed at Highclere Castle in Great Britain. You can see it in the background of the original photo. There are huge trees in front of it, so we know which perspective should be the correct one. But our tripod was to small. We made it anyway ? in both pictures you see a very clean area, it was amazing. The trees didn't changed and the weather was…ok. they had a little bit more sun. . . Clothes: Robin forgot his chemise and his tie in Germany. So if you have closer look: his "shirt" is a peace of paper ? and his tie is the belt of my coat. But it is quite similar to the original one. Cullen wears a little bit darker jackett…and a real shirt… But by the way…my coat is a bathrobe ? So…it was a lot of fun. For us and for the people around us. . . @theladydockers @tom_cullen amazing location, hope you like our photo ? Making-of is on YouTube. . .

12. Inception with DiCaprio and Cotillard.

In the City of Lights.

View this post on Instagram

The filming location for Inception was a little bit different than expected. The challenge: A lot of brides and traffic in the background… ? And we were running out of time because of the sunset. We only had 20 minutes to shoot the photo…. . . Location: You can see the beautiful background, where Leonardo DiCaprio and Marion Cotillard are standing – but it is a quite loud bridge. A lot of cars and even a train (top of the upper bridge) are driving over it. But the view is amazing (directly to the Eiffel Tower). We found the exact spot, but you clearly see the sun was going down in the original photo. So we had to hurry up. . . Clothes: Quite easy this time ? DiCaprio wears a brown shirt and Cotillard a dark shirt, too. And she wears a colorful scarf. We found similar clothes at our home to match them. . . You can see the whole story on our YouTube channel. . . @leonardodicaprio @marioncotillard We hope you like the photo ? . .

I’d say those recreations they did are pretty spot-on, wouldn’t you?

How about you? Do you ever go find pop culture locations when you’re out of town?

Or maybe even when you’re in your own town?

If so, tell us about the spots you’ve hit in the comments!

Please and thank you!

Funny Memes You’ll Love If You Have a Dog

If we’re being honest, what else do you really need in life besides dogs? Sure, cats are great too, but there’s something about a dog that just make you feel GREAT!

You got me! I definitely don’t have a good answer to that question.

We think you’re going to get a big kick out of these memes that celebrate all things related to dogs!

Are you ready to dive in?

Let’s go!

1. A corgi in disguise.

There’s no denying it.

2. Not anymore…

Ripped to shreds.

But we’re glad the dog wasn’t successful.

4. Oh, I know it’s me.

Knew it all along.

5. You shouldn’t have moved out!

People Talk About What Other Folks Do That Really Bothers Them

How much time you got, buddy?

It’s not good to let other people get to you, but dammit, people can be so infuriating.

That’s why it’s good that we can vent in online forums like this instead of doing something stupid and getting into trouble!

Yay!

Here’s what AskReddit users had to say about what other people do that really drives them crazy.

1. Let me finish!

“Talk over me while I’m mid sentence.

It’s so fucking disrespectful. Everyone deserves a chance to express themselves.”

2. Keep it down!

“Eating loudly.

NYOM NYOM NYOM SLURP NYAM SIIIIIP AHHH

They say it’s a polite thing to do when eating Ramen in japan and a cultural thing in some parts of China.

But it’s still goddamn annoying.”

3. You nasty.

“Licking their finger before handing a paper to me from a stack or before counting out money to me.

That’s just nasty.”

4. That’s enough.

“When they purposefully antagonize you (like playfully disagreeing with everything, mishearing things, etc) to irritate you. Once you’re irritated they get all defensive like that wasn’t the whole point.

My SO does this. I love everything about him, and I don’t mind a little teasing and playfulness, but damn it’d be nice if he could recognize when the people on the other end have stopped laughing or being in on the joke.

He’s getting better about it, but it would still be what I’d write down under “what’s one thing your partner does that bothers you?” if I was given one of those old magazine relationship quiz things or whatever.”

5. Getting angry.

“Bully and make comments to other people in public because they’re different to them.

Leave them the hell alone, they’re not bothering anyone. Why does their sexuality, gender, dress sense etc. bother you so much?! It makes me so angry.”

6. None of my business.

“Tell me details about other people’s sex lives and or/trauma when it’s not important in some way about the people actually having the conversation.

It’s none of my goddamn business, I don’t want to know and you shouldn’t be spreading this stuff around without their go ahead.”

7. The world needs to see this!

“Post videos of themselves/friends helping homeless people.

You don’t need to film it, just be a good person.”

8. You’re lazy!

“People who get up extremely early in the morning by choice, then get an attitude like everyone who’s still sleeping is a lazy unmotivated sloth.”

9. Totally flaky.

“Agree to things and then cancel/don’t respond at the last minute. Honestly, I used to be pretty flaky myself but I hated how guilty I felt after abruptly canceling.

There’s a sentiment that “true friends will still be your friends even if you have other commitments” but that shouldn’t be the mantra when if someone does something like this constantly and doesn’t put effort into your mutual commitment to something.”

10. Ignorance.

“Remain ignorant.

I can’t stand it. It doesn’t matter what it is, if they stop educating themselves I lose a massive deal of respect for them. Learn. Continue to learn.

Always learn as much as you can. Please.”

11. I think you need a new roommate.

“OK here goes…. My roommate.

Gets out of the shower and drys of on the carpet. I have learned to never go in there with socks on.

Cooks horrible smelling meals and leaves the scraps in the kitchen sink.

Leaves exactly one side of the sink FULL of dirty dishes all the time.

While leaving one sink full of dirty dishes he loads up the dish strainers to overflowing so even if I wanted to cook something I have to clean and then put the dishes away because there is nowhere to put them to dry.

Parks his mountain bike in the kitchen because he odes’t want to get it wet by leaving it outside. IN. THE. KITCHEN.

Has 9 pairs of shoes scattered by the front door.

Leaves the stove top covered with dirty pans and leaves his cast iron frying pans in the oven. I cannot tell you how many time I have tried to put something in the over only to slam the dish I am putting in there against his fucking frying pans.”

12. Be humble.

“People don’t have humility.

They don’t admit when they are wrong. They don’t see the other person’s perspective. They refuse to change and better themselves as a person since they always point the finger at the other.”

13. Get to the point.

“Never ending stories, answers, explanations. I am kind and patient and will give you my attention for you to share you’re knowledge or experience, but for fuck’s sake wrap it up, I’m trying to work.

I’ll ask if I want more.”

14. Thank you! This is so rude!

“Show up at the beach and blast music.”

15. Hahahaha.

“Motherfuckers that sound like a humpback whale exhaling through their blowhole every damn time they take a drink.”

16. Not a fan of this.

“Put their babies/young kids on social media in this odd, specific way like they’re TRYING to turn them into social media stars. Like “here’s my baby cooking!” “Here’s my baby cooking dressed as Walter White!”

And not just as an odd cute one-off, but like a dedicated thing where they’ll even batch-forward links to those posts with captions like “we tried the XYZ challenge on our little guy! Watch and share!”

Jesus Christ Karen it’s your goddam CHILD, give it a rest maybe?

Especially given that we have no idea who’s watching these kids on these super public platforms, and a lot of them come under regular fire for being chum in the water for pedos, it just feels like an exploitative and unsafe thing to do.”

Now I’M annoyed…but I’ll get over it.

Okay, now we want to hear from you!

In the comments, please talk to us about the things that really get your blood boiling.

We look forward to hearing from you!

Men Whose Marriage Proposals Were Turned Down Talk About Their Lives After That

I knew a friend who asked his longtime girlfriend to marry him. She said no and he was absolutely devastated. It was very sad to watch and I don’t think he ever really got over it.

It’s always sad to hear about these kinds of stories but they happen all the time, unfortunately.

Here are some true stories from people on AskReddit who had their marriage proposals rejected.

1. Be patient…

“We met in her home country of Germany while I was traveling. I knew I was in love. We dated long distance for a while. Me flying to Europe. Her flying to the US. I suggested marriage so we could be together. She said no a few times.

I didn’t press. But I was patient and not being pushy. I knew she was worth the wait. Then it hit her that’s how we could be together. If we got married, we could live in a country together. The difficulties of being born on a different patch of dirt.

A few years later, I’m still married to my best friend and living with her in Germany. Not all no’s stay no. Life goes on.”

2. Intense.

“She had cancer.

I said we should get married because I had full medical coverage from my work. She said no, and over time we grew apart.

Haven’t talked to her in 15 years, don’t know if she died.”

3. Dodged a bullet.

“Dated a woman for over two years and popped the question. First time she said “I don’t know”.

A couple months later I asked her again, she said “Maybe.” I was pretty bent out of shape.

But then I found out she was sleeping with several of my friends so I dodged a bullet there really.”

4. Good thing you got dumped.

“Her dad former Navy kept saying we should wait. We put it off for a bit longer.

Fast forward another year. She dumped me. Father informs me she has been sleeping with A LOT of guys.. like more then 50 over the 2 yrs we dated. And was very happy i didn’t marry her. and apologizes to me for her behavior.

She then totally ghosting everyone including her family for about 6 months. Find out she moved 7 hrs away and was living under a house.. not a basement. under a house with her new bf… She calls her mom to come get her. Mother and father ask me to go get her and bring her home..

Good times.. good times.”

5. Wasn’t ready…but…

“I asked her right out of high school, but she wasn’t ready. We stayed together, went to college at the same school, spent the first year in separate dorms, then moved in together. Got married a few years later.

Our 20th is coming up.”

6. Moving on.

“I never saw her again. Less than a year later I met my wife.

We’ve been together 15 years.”

7. Yes..no…

“She said yes as I had a special occasion planned – one of those observation wheels and I proposed at the very top and we were in our way to a family event and I had a ring made and everything.

Then a few days later she said no. Everything fell apart. I was distraught. We continued dating for a while but it was long distance – other side of the world. When I visited it would be super awkward. Eventually he dad kicked me out. Was flying standby and was stuck in an airport for 4 days. Took me years to recover.

Now I am happily married and am glad it never worked out. I was not in a good place when I met her and her family were super controlling. It would never have worked.

The woman I married is super cool and is my best friend. Turned out better then expected.”

8. I take it back.

“I proposed, she said yes, but 1 month before the wedding she took it back. This is what happened immediately with my life.

I personally lost about $3,000 worth of deposits. My parents and her parents lost about $4000 each on deposits. Me and my parents are working class so it took years for us to financially recovered from this.

I spent $2,200 on a ring I didn’t want. My biggest regret and will say this anyone who listens. The engagement ring chain I bought it from wouldn’t take it back. I took it to pawn shops and they’d only offer a few hundred. This engagement ring store, bank on customers who wants the whole ring (stone, band, setting).

If you’re going to buy a ring JUST BUY THE STONE a gold band, setting you can get a better deal from a local jewelry store. Apparently my gem I bought was shit. Most of the cost of the ring was BS.

Most of my family was from out of state and a lot of people were pissed because they canceled their flight.

I had to go to the ER. So I didn’t leave my room, I couldn’t take any calls because everyone was pissed and I didn’t want to hear it. I was depressed and just stayed in bed. One day my roommate grabbed me and took me to the ER where the doctor treated me for severe dehydration and an infection.

What happened when I got over it? I became stronger for it. I didn’t propose to anyone until a decade later – honestly there wasn’t anyone that I didn’t love deeply enough to be in a committed relationship. But when I proposed I was in my thirties our relationship was more mature than my first time I proposed.

We’re now married for 13 years. SHe’s my best friend. When I have good news she the first person I want to tell it too… when I have bad news she’s the first person I want to tell it too. I financially recovered as well.

I learned my lesson about the engagement ring. Only paid $300 for it. She LOVED it and treasures it. After our 10 year miles stone we were doing so well, I told her to pick a wedding ring of any cost. She refused. She still wears that cheap $300 ring and loves it.”

9. Like a movie.

“We were dating for a little over a year but I was so sure she was the one. I drove 2 hours to see her at her college and went on a beautiful winter night walk and proposed.

She looks me right in the eyes and said, “Oh you thought this was serious? Well um I don’t know how to say this other than I have been saying other people. Well actually I have been seeing other women.”

I was stunned I got up put the ring in my pocket and walked to my car got in and drove away never looking back crying the whole time.

Haven’t seen or spoken with her in 7 years even though she has tried countless times to reach out. Now it’s a story I tell friends who are nervous about asking their significant others to marry them.

Reminding them that even if they say no it could be worse.”

10. Getting over the trauma.

“She was in trauma from a past relationship, and at that time I wanted to help her move on, and in that act I realised that I’ve fallen in love with her, as she’s the one who despite being in depression, helped me out of my social anxiety. I just couldn’t see her suffer

So I proposed to her, and got rejected, as she wasn’t ready to be in another relationship and since I confessed about love, she got more anxious and out friendship was temporarily over. We didn’t talk or have contact for months.

Later on, I somehow contacted her, we had a bit of talk, and asked how she was doing, and learnt that she has been shutting herself in her room minimising contact with people. I still had romantic feelings for her, but I wanted to be with her and help her move on so I insisted being friends again. We spent our time like that, and honestly she’s the only friend I had.

Time passed, and when I saw she’s getting back to her normal life, I proposed her again, and she accepted. It was a long way to that day. I’ve never been happier in my life.

It’s been 4 years since then, though we have arguements due to different views, but we always come up with a solution to resolve things. And I can say this with certainty that nobody can love me the way she does.

I feel lucky to have her in my life.”

11. Horrible at first.

“It was absolutely horrible at first.

I legit thought my life was ending as shortly after that she wanted to “take a break”. Pretty much she wanted to date her co-worker at Baker’s square, and had a really weird cult-ish relationship with all her co-workers. At first I was confused/upset, all of the above.

But weirdly enough one of her friends/acquaintance for me contacted me since she knew I was in a rough patch, completely innocently, and we hung out, and she even knew that I wanted to get back together with her at some point, so it wasn’t anything immediate.

Eventually, the girl I proposed to found out her co-worker boy toy was a douche and wanted to get back together with me, and obviously I had been fretting about it for like 3 months so I instantly said yes even though unknowingly I started forming a bond with her friend/my acquaintance.

Slowly, things just started deteriorating as I started getting honestly kind of suspicious that she wanted to get together with one of her other co-workers, and surprisingly I was actually right. She ending up breaking up with me again, and I thought I was gonna go through it all again, but this time the shock only lasted a few days since this time I kind of had closure.

Meanwhile, somehow I think the friend/my acquaintance/current girlfriend of 4 years knew that this was gonna happen, and was there for me when I needed it. Like both times for me it was super rough, couldn’t even function. Got together, and honestly I can’t even understand how I thought I was happy with my old girlfriend who I proposed to.

I even look back, and I’m realizing that even her family was fucked up. Her Mom was extremely controlling, and even (disgustingly) bragged about how she dated a boy in high school for a few years and broke up with him and hurt his feelings so bad that he moved for mental health reasons. Like, I guess the apple didn’t fall far from the tree?

To be quite honest though, I miss her dad A LOT. Like honestly, he messages me every once and awhile (I doubt his daughter knows) and basically I can just hear it in his voice that he would rather her date me then her new boyfriend since I had a pretty good bond with him.

Even so, I still don’t like to message back with anything too much since I’d somehow weirdly feel like it’s cheating on my current girlfriend who has the most chill parents I’ve ever met, and are super easy going. I honestly think my life would’ve been hell if I chose to marry my past girlfriend with a mom-in law problem.

Anyways that’s my story.”

12. Separate ways.

“I asked a woman after almost 6 years together. She said no, and added that maybe it was time for us to go our separate ways. Wow. Shock. But life has to go on.

About a year later I met a different girl and we were engaged within a year. We were both ready for marriage. That was 16 years ago. We’ve got three terrific kids, two boys that are exceptional athletes and a girl whose a brainy little nerd.

The lady who refused me eventually got married, had a couple kids, and got divorced. But she got married again. And had another kid. And got divorced again.

We completely lost touch several years ago.”

13. Nice!

“We were living together.

I asked, she said “No, I love you but I need to think about it. I don’t think I’m ready yet. Can you give me some time and ask later?”. A few months go by, I ask again, same response. A few more months, same deal. A couple more weeks and then she says “hey, what do you think of us getting married?”. I replied: That’s an excellent idea, why didn’t I think of that?

Our 39th anniversary is next month.”

14. We’ll see…

“Dated my wife in high school.

I was all wrong for her at the time, and it was going way too fast so we broke up on good terms. One of the last times we talked, I aksed her if she would marry me one day, she laughed it off and said no way, and said I was definetly not the marrying type.

Fast Forward to college, I was working full time and she was a law student, and she walked in to the liquor store I was the manager of. We talked for an hour, and it continued in the parking lot, just talking and catching up. At the end of the conversation as she was leaving, jokingly I asked her to marry me again. She laughed, I laughed.. and she said “we’ll see”.

Married 16 years in October.”

15. It’s all good.

“Said no, we broke up, got back together, got a job in Alaska for the summer and “forgot” to tell me.

Then we don’t talk for years. There was a shooting at my church. She calls me out of the blue to make sure I’m okay. After an awkward pause “Well I want to make sure you didn’t do something stupid like go after the shooter!” then she hung up.

But here is a good story. I was 20 and she was 18. We had been really close friends for years. We where in that awkward “should be date, or shouldn’t we?” phase. So we went out to dinner. She told me “you realize if we go this route, we’re getting married in a couple of years.” So we talked about what we really wanted out of life.

She wanted to be a Pastor’s wife. I believe God loves stupid people cause he made so many. We realized we both wanted different things from life.

Been friends for 20 years. Had a rough patch when she got married and the guy couldn’t comprehend why I would be that close to her and not want to marry her.

But now everything is good.”

16. A story about Dad.

“My dad proposed to a woman who said no. My dad was a violent alcoholic and she said she couldn’t be with him unless he got clean. Took him a little while, but he did it. He wound up meeting my mom through a match maker and they’ve been married 25 years.

If that woman never said no to him, he never would have gotten clean. It was the lowest point in his life. But it all brought him to my mom who makes him happier than ever.

My dad talks to her sometimes. She got married to someone else and they had a son who died from a medical condition.”

As they say, life goes on…

How about you?

People Share Totally Embarrassing Memories They Can’t Forget About

This could be a little painful, so buckle up.

We all have certain memories from our past that still make us cringe in a major way. Maybe it happened in school, or at your first job, or when you tried to ask someone out on a date and they humiliated you in front of a big group of people.

Good times!

Let’s see what AskReddit users had to say about the memories that still embarrass the to this day.

1. Not a great opening line.

“I was interested in a guy but didn’t know how to start a conversation with him.

We were standing next to each other while preparing food for a barbecue and I just thought it was a good idea to start a conversation with “I like the feeling of touching raw meat”.”

2. School days…

“This was in school.

We were playing a game where one person chased everyone else, and when they touched you, you had to go “to jail”. That meant, you had to put your arms inside the torso part of your sweater, and the sleeves got tied around a pole. You had to get loose to be free again, either on your own or by the help of someone else.

I think I was about 11 at the time. I got caught and tied to a pole, but I was wearing a hoodie with a zipper, so I felt incredibly smart when I unzipped it from the inside and ran away shouting “HA!”

Thing is, I had forgotten to put on a T-shirt under the hoodie, and I was an early bloomer, so I basically showed the whole school yard my recently grown tits. Shudder.”

3. Still haunted.

“When I was 16 I got set up with a family friend’s daughter. We started dating in a long distance relationship. After a month or so it was school holidays and I went up to visit her. I didn’t have alot of money but I wanted to buy her a gift. A settled on a beautiful jig saw puzzle.

She wasn’t too happy about the gift. Because she was blind. Yes I bought my blind girlfriend a jigsaw puzzle. In the moment it seemed very appropriate because each piece was unique right? She can feel the pieces rights?? Pure effing cringe. Still haunts me.”

4. Didn’t know any better.

“I grew up in an extremely sheltered household so my brain just didn’t understand/know what racism was and we were trying to pick teams for basket ball and I tried to ‘organise by colour’.

I was a stupid child.”

5. Today’s Halloween, right?

“In 5th grade I went to school on Halloween Costume Day completely dressed up like a pirate. Makeup, costume, hair, everything.

Walked into school only to realize no one else was wearing a costume and that dress up day was tomorrow. Had to wait until lunch for my mom to bring me new clothes.”

6. That’s bizarre.

“The time my internet access was shot over a weekend, so I went to work as usual on Monday, and stayed and worked all day, and only found out I’d been fired the week before when I got home.

Small, very high-profile business. Everyone was acting weird all day.

I soft-broil myself to sleep in this memory.”

7. Not a great answer.

“Definitely that time my professor asked what I did over the summer, and I wanted to say “hanging around” and “catching up with sleep”. All I managed to blurt out was “sleeping around.”

That wasn’t even true!!”

8. Oh no!

“Once got my period in the middle of a scene in a junior school play.

I was 12/13.

That shit sucks.”

9. You blew it!

“When I was 16 I offered to take a girl I liked to the movies.

I approached the ticket counter and asked for one movie ticket, immediately realized I was an idiot, but was too embarrassed to rectify my mistake. She purchased her own ticket to the movie.

Still haunts me almost 10 years later…”

10. DRUNK.

“I was a bit drunk at a friend’s wedding and decided to scrawl all over two pages of her wedding book to fill up some space.

Later someone was looking at the book and I heard them say “Look at this! What sort of person does that?”.

I still feel bad when I think about it.”

11. Hahaha! Amazing!

“Went for an interview and handed the person my coat when they were trying to shake my hand.”

12. Almost made it.

“Trying to run away from home when I was six only to stop at the start of the driveway because I was always told that it was dangerous to walk on the street without an adult.

My parents have this really nice photo of me, with my little backpack, standing there looking really conflicted.”

13. You might have a problem.

“I fell into a fountain, not once but three different times in three different fountains, on a trip to Europe with a group of kids from school when I was In seventh grade.

Of course my crush and his friends went on this trip and they preceded to call me fountain girl till high school graduation.”

14. I knew a story like this was coming.

“Farted in class during a test back in middle school.

Everybody knew it was me but I was too awkward to confirm or deny it so I just acted oblivious. That fart must’ve been pretty awful because a bunch of classmates around me covered their noses with their shirts and the teacher cracked open a window.

Just the complete awkward silence that followed the fart and the feeling of everybody staring at me in disgust still makes me shudder with cringe whenever I think about it.”

15. This is terrible.

“We weren’t allowed to sleep with our doors shut.

I woke up earlier than everyone else most days and on this day decided to rub one out before everyone woke up. Grabbed the lotion, put it under my second pillow all smooth-like so no one would see it if they walked by. About half way through the deed my Aunt (raised me) rips her door open (which is positioned about 15 feet directly across the hall from my room and perfect view to my bed).

I was so f$@&ing scared that I literally sat straight up, one hand under the covers.. she saw me and goes, ‘heyyy….?’ and starts walking over. I sat there frozen, like I saw a bus speeding directly at me but I couldn’t move, junk still in hand..

She comes in my room and goes ‘whats going on sweety, are you okay? I just awkwardly say ‘yeah, you just scared me’. She laughs and sits on the bed next to me – directly on the pillow and hears a crunch.. looks at me, stands up and picks up the pillow, looks back at me (im mortified) and starts walking out.

She didn’t even turn back to look at me, just grabs the door to shut it and says, I think you’re old enough to sleep with this closed now’ I didn’t leave my room all day……..”

Those are great!

And painful…and we apologize for your suffering.

Okay, now we want to hear from you!

In the comments, please share a cringeworthy memory from your past that you can’t seem to shake.

We look forward to hearing from you.

People Share Cringeworthy Moments From Their Past That Still Haunt Them Today

I have some memories from my younger days that just make me hang my head in shame and say to myself, “what the hell were you thinking, you IDIOT!”

Hey, we all have them.

And even though they’re still somewhat painful and embarrassing, it’s good to look back and laugh…if you can…

Folks on AskReddit opened up about the cringey memories they can’t seem to get rid of.

1. We can work on that!

“So for context I went to a really sheltered Catholic high school. So didn’t really know how the real world worked.

My first job when I was 16 and I’m being introduced to all my co-workers. On of them named Maurice (who was obviously homosexual) asked me if I was too.

I wasn’t but wanted to let him know I was cool with it ( again Catholic high school) and said “no but I’m open minded about it”.

To which he responded “we’re gonna work on that”. What an awkward summer. I cringe every time.”

2. Sleeping in class.

“I fell asleep in my high school history class, I was all the way in the back of the room so the teacher never noticed.

Until I farted in my sleep so loud that it woke me up and my head shot up and smacked against the back wall. Never heard the end of it

At the time nobody really reacted. Except the guy in front of me was just kind of shaking, he turned around to look at me and was laughing so hard he was crying. Also should mention my crush was two seats over.”

3. A nice ending.

“In the first grade I moved to a new school in a small town. Two months in I would literally lose bowel function for no apparent reason. Totally watery and intense abdominal cramps. I was shy and didn’t have any friends yet. I was embarrassed and would just sit there in my own mess until the teacher noticed.

This went on every day. Eventually they sent me to the principles office and the nurse, teacher, and my parents thought I was just seeking attention. Despite packing 2 new pairs of undies and pants each day I would still be soaked at the end of the day.

Over the next 2 weeks I kept getting in trouble. I was held in from recess and had to sit in the hallway alone when I ran out of clothes for the day.

I had to eat lunch alone and spent at least half of my days sitting by myself in the hallway staring at the wall.

When my parents finally took me to the doctor they found a strange intestinal infection with no cure. It eventually went away.

So for 1 month in a new school I was that shy weird kid who smelled bad and couldn’t participate in any activities.

I graduated HS 12 years later with the same small class of students.

It wasn’t until my 10 year class reunion that one of my classmates (now a nurse) told me they all felt so bad for me and never brought it up because they felt like I was being abused when they saw me sitting alone in the hall in my soaked clothing.

This restored my faith in how kind other kids can be.”

4. Called out.

“I was bullshitting my way through a presentation in college on tanks in World War 2 and this kid just got so sick of my shit that he called out from the back of the class and corrected me in front of the whole class while my professor avoided eye contact with me.”

5. Gift cards!

“So my mom had won this prize at a big shopping center. She was allowed to take 3 guests for a day of shopping that included gift cards at various stores and a $250 gift card at a restaurant of her choice for us to eat at. Anyways, it was a big deal and they had a film crew come and tape some of it for their website.

The reporter lady comes up to me when the food arrives and she’s like “that looks fantastic, what’d you get?” And I was caught off guard so I look at the camera and go “GIFT CARDS!”

Ultimate cringe and it took me about half a second to realize what she meant. When I think about it now at least I can laugh about it.”

6. Still cringing.

“I’m a Canadian and we had this show in the 2000’s called Radio Free Roscoe. I was obsessed with this show! I watched it religiously on the Family Channel. My aunt had a friend who was a makeup artist for the show and so she managed to get us on set to meet the cast and visit all the different places.

My 11 year old self was ecstatic! It was the most incredible thing to happen to me. My brother and make cousin went with us

We get to the set and it’s amazing and everything I had hoped it would be. We got to see them film a scene and see all the behind the scenes stuff, it was incredible. We went to do the meet and greet with the cast and I was so nervous but excited.

I’m an awkward girl and super oblivious especially when I’m nervous. Kate Todd (the female co-star) was being super sweet with me because I was the only girl in our group. She called me over to sit with her for the photos and used her hand to pat the seat beside her. Being oblivious I missed the seat pat and went and sat directly on her lap.

I’m 27 years old now and I still remember her saying “Oh! Um, Okay” in a super surprised voice. I was mortified that I just sat on her damn lap like a baby instead of beside her like she intended. I honestly couldn’t look anyone in the eyes again after that.

I still cringe to this day thinking about sitting on her damn lap. She was super sweet about it but I knew I had fucked up.”

7. Sorry, Colin…

“This guy in one of my classes in 8th grade I was friendly with bc he didn’t seem to be good friends with anyone else in the class. He was a nice kid just maybe a little awkward but we had good conversations about LotR so hey.

Then one day at the end of the period we were both packing up our stuff and he says “Hey, do you want to go out with me next Wednesday?”

Wasn’t interested in him that way, and I was so off guard that I froze like a deer in the headlights until I finally stammered “Uh, I think my mom has planssorrybye.” And basically ran out of the room. I still feel bad about it, every time I saw him in middle school and high school after that I felt terrible.

Sorry Colin.”

8. This is really bad.

“Oh man.

Some context, my best friend growing up was black. We were inseparable, we wanted to make video games together when we grew up, all that. Well, he went with me and another member of my family to the store.

As we were driving, a man nearly ran into my other family member’s car, and my other family member shouted, “F-ing n-er!” It got quiet in the car, then my other family member said to my best friend in the back, “You’re not the n-er I was talking to,” as a way to apologize.

I was young, but even then I knew something awful had happened. It completely changed how I looked at my other family member and how my best friend looked at my family. We stayed friends but I had to hang out at his house since he stopped coming to mine. Couldn’t blame him.

Super-cringy, life-changing.”

9. Bloody awful.

“My sons and their friend kicked their ball into the middle of a little pond at our local park. I let them use my walking stick to try get it out but they couldn’t quite reach. A man passing by with his son offered to help.

He got the ball but dropped my stick. As he was reaching for the stick he fell in! He laughed, we laughed and he went off home to dry up. He returned 10 mins later because once he got home he realised his phone was missing. His phone that contained baby pics of his son and newborn at home. We tried so hard to find that damn phone.

I still feel bloody awful.”

10. My idol…

“So when I was 8 or so, some of my parents’ friends came over, and they brought their son, who was a few years older than me. I used to really idolize that kid for some reason…he just seemed cool and was always friendly toward me.

So this particular day I happened to be lounging around in my pajamas watching television and I hadn’t expected company. I don’t know why, because wearing pajamas (especially as an 8-year-old boy) is not that big of a thing, but I was absolutely mortified when the kid came into the room to say hi.

So I ended up running to the closet nearby and shutting the door. This was right in front of the kid. My parents couldn’t get me out. The kid came up and through the door was like, “that’s totally fine, bud, there’s nothing for you to be embarrassed about, come out and play. If you want you can go change first.”

But I wasn’t having any of it. I was by this point more embarrassed about my reaction than being “caught” in pajamas, so I couldn’t bring myself to come out until the kid and his parents left like two hours later.”

11. Saying dumb stuff.

“I was in my early 20s, had a girlfriend of 3 years and we were like 2 years into our relationship, and one time after we had sex I said, and I still don’t know what possessed me to say this, god this is so embarrassing… I said, “where are you gonna find dick this good?”

It was so awkward. And I think about it like once a month because it is easily the dumbest thing I have ever said, and it makes me cringe so bad.

Someone punch me in the face.”

12. That’s pretty bad.

“Doing a practice for a play in front of a small crowd of like maybe 35 – 50 people when I sh*t my pants.

Middle of my lines a felt the wetness and had to run off stage. I kept myself locked in a room the rest of the day.”

13. Forgot she was there.

“The very first night my now wife spent at my place (had only been dating a week, but I was SUPER into her) we got shitty drunk before bed … the next morning I forgot she was there (still technically drunk) and ripped a once in a lifetime epic fart that was both echoing through the hallways and melting paint off the walls.

I remembered she was there when she audibly laughed and said “oh my God!” I pretended to still be asleep instead of addressing it. To this day I’m amazed she stuck around after that, but we’re now happily married.

Anyone that can survive that and still stick around is definitely a keeper … even if she still loves telling people that story years later.”

14. It was you…

“So I was having a psychological evaluation for a military school, the psychologist gave me two pieces of paper to draw a male and a female and name them. The male one was easy, I just have to draw myself and use my own name.

I was having difficulty drawing a female and couldn’t think fast so my stupid ass drew the psychologist because she was cute.

Then came the part where she started asking about the drawing, the male part went smoothly, when she asked about the name of the female I said “Actually it was you” (plus a smirk) then she straight up wrote the name of the drawing “Actually it was you”.

I still cringe about it up to now.”

15. Family vacation.

“Was a kid (10) in a family vacation in Hong Kong and we were all in a souvenir store. I was walking around with my brother (9) trying to find a cool toy to buy. It took me long enough to find one, but I was proud that I found it.

I was amused by it and started talking about it to him. It was a large strechy and bouncy toy that had a cartoonish face one it. I was saying things like “Wow! This is so cool!” and proceeded to make the toy bounce a lot. I brought the toy towards my brother’s face and shouted “BOING BOING BOING” and that’s when I realized that I wasn’t talking to my brother anymore.

It was a Chinese boy, assumably 10-12 years old. He stared at me with the most serious face ever. I legit felt so ashamed, and ran away. I didn’t bother to get the toy anymore.

I have never been so traumatized in my life that until this day I still think about that Chinese boy’s poker face.”

16. Did it work, though?

“Yelling at the top of my lungs “we are looking for love!”

At a homeschooler cookout when I was 13 to a group of girls… Raised my soda and everything.”

Ouch…we feel you, friends…and we hope you forget about those incidents very soon.

How about you?

If You Despise Your 9-5 Job, These Funny Memes Are for You

All jobs have their ups and downs, but corporate jobs come with a lot of baggage.

You have to get dressed up, half of life feels like you’re stuck in traffic, and you have to learn all the corporate lingo and follow the RULES.

So many rules…

It can be kind of soul-sucking and that’s why these memes about working corporate jobs are hilariously accurate.

Let’s take a look, shall we?

1. You deserve some kind of award.

You did it! Look at you!
