Brides Who Realized Immediately That the Wedding Was a Mistake

A wedding is a day that so many of us are brought up to dream about and to look forward to.

But what happens when you realize you simply don’t like what you see?

What if you have a sense from the very beginning that you’ve made a big mistake?

It seems simple enough from a detached perspective to just say “Well then end it. Get a divorce.” But of course, it’s not always so simple. The ties that bind us to people, the commitments we’ve made, the costs we’ve sunk, the expectations of those around us, the haunting fears of failure, all of these compound into a force that can override our red-flag detection, at least for a time.

And so we’re left making confessions like these…

10. Not tears of joy

Could anyone on the outside tell the difference?

9. Talk me out of it

Real life is not the plot of a rom com.

Source: Whisper

8. Clinging on

Talk about a runaway bride.

Source: Whisper

7. Fear is powerful

What, with all these people watching? All this money? All this pressure?

Source: Whisper

6. Get kicked

There’s no excuse for abuse.

Source: Whisper

5. Money talks

While we stay silent.

Source: Whisper

4. Cry cry again

An all too common experience, it seems.

Source: Whisper

3. Better than expected

When you both know it’s bad, you know.

Source: Whisper

2. He changed

No more Mr. Nice Guy. Literally.

1. Clear vision

Blue’s not your color, huh?

Source: Whisper

Best of luck to anyone and everyone stuck in a relationship they realize is a mistake. There are brighter days ahead.

10 Absurd, Over-the-Top Instagram Flexes

With rampant wealth inequality on the rise and growing resentment for the rich as awareness spreads of how just how much the majority of us are getting screwed, you might *think* it wouldn’t be the best policy to spend large chunks of your life endlessly staging photos showing off how excessively you live.

But you’d be wrong, because Instagram, I guess.

Instagram is a magical place where the wealthy get wealthier simply by showing off how wealthy they are.

Let’s look at that for a minute and try not to explode, shall we?

10. Flyin’ high

This is actually comparatively tame in the Instagram money-flaunting community. Like, maybe that’s not even his plane?

9. Black on black

Are you a drug kingpin? Or like, an entire SWAT team?

8. Opening doors

“I love my girlfriend, but I REALLY love these silly-*ss hinges.”

7. In the bag

“Just spent your year’s salary on closet stuffing, please admire me about it.”

6. Towering heights

“Someday…I’ll dunk on that thing.”

5. Pretty in pink

Is that a…cake? A comically large bouquet? A powder applicator for a giant? Somebody help me out here.

4. Passed out

The hardest part of being a mom is fitting all my designer clothes into my sports car.

3. The man cave

“And here’s the room in my house where I keep my cars.”
“You mean a garage?”
“I do not.”

2. Triple threat

How is this man an entire traffic jam by himself?

1. Stick the landing

Oh, you’re still traveling by land? How quaint.

Welp, time to go heat up some raman again.

Be honest – if you got a million bucks tomorrow, what would you do with it?

Tweets for Misanthropes to Enjoy…If That’s Possible

There’s a great word that I feel doesn’t get used enough despite ample opportunity and applicability. That word is “misanthrope,” and it’s defined thusly:

Mis•an•thrope – noun – a person who dislikes humankind and avoids human society.

Pretty relatable right?

But it doesn’t stop there. You can toss it in as an adjective (“misanthropic”), an active noun (“misanthropy”), or even throw it around as an “ism,” (“misanthropism”).

You can do all of this to sound just a little more sophisticated while explaining to the people around you that you hate the people around you and want nothing to do with them. That is, if you’re anything like the folks who wrote these tweets.

10. Alone again, naturally

This has pretty much been me for the last year, I must confess.

9. Dog eat dog

Canines are infinitely better than humans.

8. What do you think you’re doing?

I’m gonna need way more information before I make even a verbal commitment, this might be a trap.

7. It’s no surprise to me

‘Cause every now and then I kick the living sh*t outta me.

6. Remember, remember

I see no reason the random light treason should ever be forgot.

5. Asked and answered

It’s a dangerous game that you’re playing.

4. Downright neighborly

The less they know of my existence the better.

3. Squad goals

Oh, I’m dead serious about that.

2. Back off

I’m sorry, do you know who I am?

1. Checking in

Yup, it’s still pretty stupid out here.

We misanthropes gotta stick together. But separately, because ew.

Would you define yourself as a people person? Why or why not?

Tweets For People Who Are Sick of Work

Let’s revisit the immortal words of Todd Rundgren:

“Take this, every day when I get home from work
I feel so frustrated the boss is a jerk,
And I get my sticks and go out to the shed,
And I pound on that drum like it was the boss’ head because
I don’t want to work
I want to bang on the drum all day.”

This lighthearted tune about an employer head trauma fantasy rings true with most of us, especially with the people who wrote these tweets.

Though I’d rather nobody bang on drums while I’m trying to relax. You can take that elsewhere, please.

10. Dead serious

Cool, cool cool cool, our society is broken.

9. Me time

How about mind your own business, Carol?

8. Tears in rain

Now THAT’S what I call freedom.

7. Code of conduct

Now I shall go to heaven.

6. Tow the line

It’s the delicate balance that binds us all together.

5. Growing accustomed

I don’t even need to see the rest of ya’ll.

4. See no evil

We’ve been speaking with our voices for millenia, we can just keep doing that.

3. The dream

Let me know if you figure it out.

2. Enthusiasm

I too have an inescapable guilt complex.

1. Many worries

Watch your language.

Nobody wants to work. But we gotta. At least we can all tweet about it!

What’s the best job you’ve ever had? What’s the worst job you’ve ever had? What made them unique?

Memes For People Who Don’t Really Like People

Do you ever feel like you just don’t like people very much?

Do you ever have like, a few thousand of those days in a row?

Do you ever think that maybe it’s not the day’s fault, and that maybe it’s more a matter of you just genuinely not liking people because people suck a whole bunch?

Well, you’re not alone. Unfortunately. Let’s look at some memes about it.

15. Take a break

This is my home. I live here now.

Via: Someecards

14. True colors

Once you hit a certain age, why hide it?

Via: Someecards

13. Priorities

So say we all.

Via: Someecards

12. The corner

This is what we came here for, right? To anti-socialize?

Via: Someecards

11. Surrounded!

It’s like every place I look, there’s another.

Via: Someecards

10. Checking in

Yup, still pretty bogus out here.

Via: Someecards

9. Pick-me-up

Are you sure you’re not all just doing drugs?

Via: Someecards

8. Sorry not sorry

There have been some major overhauls recently.

Via: Someecards

7. Fitting in

Erm…careful what you wish for?

Sorry for the inconvenience.

We really don’t need to go through this again.

Via: Someecards

A literary classic, but hard to get through.

Via: Someecards

1. Don’t worry

Well, that’s quite a relief.

Via: Someecards

I don’t know what all these people are here for, but I’m here for some good alone time away from them.

These Tweets Are the Best of the Best

Twitter, what would I do without you? Be productive? Do my work? Clean my apartment? Get back in contact with loved ones?

That all sounds lame. I’d much rather scroll endlessly through the strangeness scape that is Twitter. Especially now that they’ve sort of done some housecleaning of their own. Without the absolute worst bottom 5% of users or so, it’s all in all a much more pleasant place to be. It’s easier to find cool and funny tweets, like these ones here.

12. 101 demands

Also you might wanna just go ahead and organize some protests against the fur industry.

11. Dang libs

The bald hypocrisy and apathy is just absolutely stunning.

10. Among gus

It’s darker than you could possibly imagine.

9. How the cookie crumbles

You monster – that’s the most evil thing I can imagine.

8. What gives?

“I am so firing our travel agent.” – birds who still have travel agents, I guess.

7. Mind the gap

You know that’s how we do.

6. Incorporeal hotness

It’s a beauty that surpasses even my understanding.

5. Valentimes

Time to get involved in everybody’s business!

4. Level up!

Wake me when it’s time for the twos.

3. Babe?

This is it, this wins, the meme is over now.

2. Stay with me

You’ll never leave…not while I have anything to say about it.

1. In theory

You laugh but I’ve heard people really say crap like this.

I can’t imagine what I would do without Twitter, and I don’t have to, because it’s here.

Memes That Are Pretty Much High Art

It’s been quite some time since I’ve been to a modern art museum, and sometimes I wonder just how modern the art has gotten.

I mean, they keep that stuff updated right? Is there a meme wing in any of those things yet? Are rich philanthropists throwing parties to have a hall of Spongebob reactions names after them?

If not, they should be. Because memes are the greatest art of a generation.

Here are twelve random pieces to prove it.

12. Too toasty

I’m going to go cry about something unrelated now, if you don’t mind.

11. Don’t call it a comeback

Gotta stay busy somehow.

10. Mano-a-mano

That’s video game logic for ya.

9. Security measures

I guess I appreciate it?

8. The battle within

I, too, melt when I get anxious.

7. The natural order

Ding dong, your ecology is gone.

6. Love stranding

Maybe this will finally make the game fun.

5. The Dr. Seuss will see you now

Stay away from the box, stay away from the fox, go to your house and lock up all the locks!

4. Home movies

This is the episode we desperately need.

3. Strength in numbers

I can hear it in my head now.

2. Well that sucks

But why? But why? But why? But why? But why? But-

1. Hi, welcome to chilies

Never underestimate our stupidity and pain tolerance.

Absolutely inspired. A true testament not just to the internet, but to art itself.

What kind of memes do you consider to be the highest art?

Reasons Why People Still Hold Onto the Label of “Virgin”

When you think about it, what does virginity really mean, and why do we make such a huge deal out of it?

On the most basic level it’s a term to demarcate the time before you first had sex and after, but sex is a pretty normal part of life for most people. We don’t have a glossary of terms and labels for people who have or have not yet done other ordinary things, like ride a bike or swim in a pool or watch Die Hard.

Virginity is different though, at least in our heads, which is why some people would really rather hold onto the label.

13. Third time’s the charm

*Shrugs* you do you, I guess.

Source: Whisper

12. What’s old is new again

It’s about how it strikes ya.

Source: Whisper

11. What’s up with that?

Sounds like you’ve got a few hangups you need to explore.

Source: Whisper

10. I want it

This sort of pressure makes me feel sad for people.

Source: Whisper

9. Religious experience

Empowering act of faith or damaging artifact of cultural stigma?

Source: Whisper

8. Against my will

I think that’s completely understandable.

Source: Whisper

7. Take me back

I’d like to call a do-over, please.

Source: Whisper

6. Reset the clock

Not sure that’s how time works but whatever.

Source: Whisper

5. Revirginizing

That’s fine, but why does the wording even matter at this point?

Source: Whisper

4. Crank it up

Gonna need a little more.

Source: Whisper

3. True love waits

It’s everyone’s personal choice.

Source: Whisper

2. New again

That’s an incredible gift.

Source: Whisper

1. Real sex

Intimate, respectful, and loving.

Source: Whisper

At the end of the day, call yourself what you want. It’s all a construct anyway.

Do you consider yourself a virgin? Why or why not?

Memes That Are Practically a Religious Experience

It’s been a little while since I’ve read the Bible, but if I remember correctly – and I don’t – there’s definitely maybe possibly something in there about memes.

Again, I might be getting stories mixed up but I could swear that at one point Jesus is like, in a group chat, and there’s only two memes that keep getting shared, but then he miraculously multiplies them into thousands of new memes for the disciples to feast on? And then Judas adds a bunch of watermarks?

Maybe that’s blasphemy, but you gotta understand, great memes like these are very nearly a religion to me.

10. Call and response

Honestly this has got to be one of the most unintuitive design choices by a major company ever.

Via: Someecards

9. Good mourning

It’s another beautiful day.

Via: Someecards

8. We live in a society

I’d be a people person if it weren’t for all the people and persons.

Via: Someecards

7. Doing my part

These 1’s and 0’s aren’t gonna manipulate themselves.

Via: Someecards

6. Couch potato

WHy doesn’t he look happy? He’s living the absolute dream.

Via: Someecards

5. Mystery wrapped in an enigma

It’s almost like describing ourselves in absolutes just doesn’t work.

Via: Someecards

4. Model citizen

They don’t even have real mouths but I can hear them saying “but daaaaad…”

Via: Someecards

3. The look

We all know what’s up.

Via: Someecards

2. Busy busy

If you’ve got time to lean, go for it.

Via: Someecards

1. The enclosure

Don’t talk to be before I’ve had my coffee. Or after.

Via: Someecards

And we beheld the mees, and we saw that they were good. Amen.

These Boyfriends All Have Bizarre Rules

There are exceptions, most of them being tongue-in-cheek jabs or exaggerations, but for the most part, any sentence that starts with “my boyfriend doesn’t let me…” is generally a red flag.

Maybe several decades ago in America it would be considered a norm for a man to call the shots in a relationship even to the point of being controlling and arbitrary, but we’ve got enough of a general cultural awareness of abuse and power dynamics now – not to mention good ol’ fashioned systemic misogyny – that we should all wince when we hear confessions like the ones gathered here.

11. Change your tone

Why, though?

Source: Whisper

10. Getting annoyed

That’s not great – you’re two different people.

Source: Whisper

9. Made up

That’s a level of insecurity that he needs to deal with, not you.

Source: Whisper

8. The outside world

Gross. Dump him.

Source: Whisper

7. The naked truth

Yeah, I’d say that’s an understatement.

Source: Whisper

6. Hate it / love him

Don’t be a prude, dude.

Source: Whisper

5. Wherever he wants

Classic double standard.

Source: Whisper

4. You’re fired

It’s a destructive habit, no doubt, but you’re an adult and that’s not how addiction is handled.

Source: Whisper

3. Hold in my tears

He probably just has no idea how to deal with it so he lashes out at you.

Source: Whisper

2. I still believe

That’s abuse, yo.

Source: Whisper

1. It’s a snap

Get outta there.

Source: Whisper

I can appreciate that it’s easy enough for you or I to read these and say “dump that chump,” but that it’s not always so simple for the people actually in these situations. Have patience, be understanding, and be on the lookout for those very red flags.
