10 People Who Should’ve Thought Twice About Going out in Public

We’ve all had a bad haircut or bad style at some point in our lives. We’ve all made the decision to cut some (bangs!) or all of our hair without professional help. And although I once dated a guy who let his roommate cut his hair and vice versa with decent results, I think it’s fair to say that most of the time, you’re better off paying.

I’d wager a guess that these 10 people are really wishing they’d gone to a barbershop or a salon.

And if they’re not, well…they really should be.

10. I kind of like that he’s letting everyone know who he is right up front.

Got my friends to shave my head and we paused here from Justfuckmyshitup

9. I just really hope this was a terrible accident.

This lady in front of me in line at the chemist ? from Justfuckmyshitup

8. Man, this is not okay.

I am Alex Murphy. from Justfuckmyshitup

7. Oh, dear. Well, Mom definitely made the most of it.

My kiddo cut his hair yesterday, then agreed to let me have a little fun with it before we fixed it. from pics

6. You missed a spot.

Desperate times call for desperate measures… from Justfuckmyshitup

5. At least it matches her lipstick?

I wouldn’t be going back any time soon from FuckMyShitUp

4. His props are cracking me up.

Guess I have to fuck my own shit up in these quarantined times from Justfuckmyshitup

3. His wife, who is supposed to love him, did this to him.

My husband’s quarantine haircut…the first of many to come. from FuckMyShitUp

2. That’s…sweet.

Love on my mind from FuckMyShitUp

1. You can see by his face that he is LOVING IT.

High school cringe from FuckMyShitUp

 

I’m definitely feeling better about my raggedy hair at this point, how about you?

What’s the worst haircut/hairdo you’ve ever had? I bet it’s not as bad as these were!

A Viral Restaurant TikTok Video Compares Boomer Table to Gen Z Table

As a millennial, the sort-of-real, sort-of-a-joke generational war with boomers is getting a little old. Maybe it’s time to pass the torch to gen Z?

I don’t think that was the intention of TikTok user @KateBrande when she uploaded a brief video from her serving job comparing the state of tables left by Z kids and a group of boomers, but it kind of exploded and sparked off a hell of a conversation.

@katebrande“They get paid to do that” VS “we know restaurant life is hard, here, let us help you out”♬ original sound – katebrande

The caption reads:

“‘They get paid to do that’ VS ‘we know restaurant life is hard, here, let us help you out.’”

It’s an interesting point on the shifting views on service industry work. My parents raised me to be polite, but I don’t remember ever being told to stack plates or help out at a restaurant table. That practice started with peer groups of mine.

Maybe the next generation takes this as even more of a given?

The comments section had plenty of detractors.

Cultural norms shift, of course.

Despite the video going viral, Kate doesn’t seem to be that worked up about it.

If you’ve been there, you know what it’s like.

Most comments were pretty supportive.

Twist ending!

Taking a second while you’re talking to your friends or waiting for the check to just tidy the table up a bit really requires very little effort, and could make a server’s day. I’m definitely in favor.

But what do you think?

Sound off in the comments.

These People Just Really Need to Rethink Their Hair Game Entirely

I thought I’d seen awful haircuts before in my life (or even experienced them), but then I saw Tiger King on Netflix and realized that, you know…

There are bad haircuts and then there are haircuts people get on purpose and really shouldn’t.

So, I can’t say these 12 haircuts really surprised me, per se, but they definitely still did their best to shock and awe!

12. There’s nothing to do but high five this chick.

1. Am I wrong or can he totally pull this off?

I’m going to need to see my own hairdresser, and I plan to hug and tip her like she’s the best friend I’ve ever had when I do.

What’s the worst haircut you’ve ever had? I grew up in the 80s, so I can safely say mine was when my mother decided to perm JUST my bangs.

Thanks, Ma.

Check out These Memes of Your Dreams and Nightmares

They say “Don’t let your memes be dreams.”

What does that mean? I have no clue.

But I look at memes so much that I do sometimes dream about them, so maybe it’s a warning. A warning not to spend so much of my time on dumb internet stuff. Listen, nobody can tell me what to do, so I’m going to keep collecting and sharing memes, because I’m reasonably certain they’re going to be currency soon.

Here’s some particularly valuable ones for the vault:

13. The first step is envisioning it

12. Hotter than my shower karaoke

11. But can they do it in bed?

10. Other dads fear him

9. Binge-waking

8. The defining moment of a generation

7. Came to chill

6. So controversial, so brave

5. Now legal in all 50 states

4. It’s a pretty great vicious cycle

3. Both with express delivery

2. Pull your 2 pounds of weight, pupper

1. Since childhood…

Ah, that’s the good stuff. I may not be rich in money, or friends, but I am very VERY rich in memes.

What are the memes of your dreams?

Don’t be afraid to share in the comments.

A Mattress Store Employee Took Petty Revenge on a Demanding “Karen”

Anybody who has ever worked in retail has a million horror stories about difficult customers. The “Karen” has become a meme-able archetype for this; a demanding, self-important shopper who treats the whole experience like a battle to be won; and not through wit or charm or bartering skill, but through tantrums, volume, and confrontation. It’s enough to make anybody want to take a little petty revenge.

Hence this story that popped up, fittingly enough, on r/PettyRevenge:

Karen demands her price. from pettyrevenge

Basically, Karen wanted a better price, and she probably could have got one, if she had just bothered to treat the employee like a person.

There’s a lesson to be learned here. Being a jerk might have the exact opposite effect you’re looking for.

Another user refers to this phenomenon as the “asshole tax.”

And unlike most taxes, this one has a lot of support.

But is it truly effective if they never know?

One could argue the net effect is 0.

But there may be no helping some people.

Maybe everybody wins?

It’s just so difficult to have sympathy with someone who acts so ridiculous.

How does she find all her connections anyway?

Of course, we could stop giggling for a minute and try to break down real human behavior.

But at the very least, we can take this as a cue to be nicer people, for everybody’s benefit.

So I guess that’s the real message here. The person working on the sales floor or behind the counter or in the kitchen is just trying to do their job, a job for which they are more than likely underpaid, and unless they’re actively antagonizing you, you owe them courtesy and respect. So give it, or pay the asshole tax.

Got any retail horror stories?

Let it out in the comments.

People Who Shouldn’t Have Cut Their Own Hair

We all get a wild hair sometimes and think we could do just as good a job giving ourselves a cut and/or color as our stylist does.

And for those of us who have given into the urge to try, we’ve all realized emphatically that’s not true.
