15 Photos of People Who Probably Should’ve Used Spellcheck

With the advent of spellcheck (and, you know, the fact that most people have Google at their fingertips at all time), spelling errors are less and less common (at least on public signage).

Which is all to say, these 15 people decided they just really, really didn’t care. At all.

15. Decidedly less appetizing than oatmeal, which is honestly pretty hard to do.

14. I can see that.

[Legit] Delicious hand soup from BoneAppleTea

13. Related to peas, not, well…you know.

12. I bet they didn’t sell a whole lotta those.

11. Those are some bold eggs. Plus an ‘e.’

10. Come on you know what they mean!

9. What happens when you’ve only heard a word and not seen it in print.

8. Mmm, a winning combination if I’ve ever seen one.

7. That is…not the same thing at all.

Skin Milk from BoneAppleTea

6. This one is honestly pretty darn adorable.

5. An answer to the ranibow sprimkles.

4. I mean just oh my laundry please don’t stop.

3. I definitely was not going to smork out here, officer.

2. The person who could spell quit too, sorry.

On a Burger King. Sorry for the what? from excgarated

1. They have that nice, swampy flavor to them.

Some of these are super cringe-y, if you ask me!

Are you good at spelling? Does stuff like this get under your skin?

15 Movies That Would’ve Ended Quickly If the Main Characters Had Just Followed the Rules

I think it’s annoying to watch movies where the plot depends on a main character who just will not do what they’re told, even if they should, and even if the person doing the telling has way more knowledge and experience, and even if it’s definitely going to hurt them to go their own way.

Because surely there is a better and more believable plot device to move the story from here to there involving a character who actually makes sense?? Although you do get that nice jolt of dramatic irony as the reader.

These 15 movies might not have existed at all without the dumb main character who just refused to do what they were told.

15. I mean, he was the one who drew first blood so.

First Blood would just be a movie about a Vietnam vet taking a walk if Brian Dennehy didn’t pull a u-turn and give Rambo a hassle.

14. It probably still would have ended badly.

The Cabin in the Woods

The “Harbinger” warns them to turn back, so they do. The end. Except that still probably means everybody dies.

13. He really did just make a big mess for himself to clean up.

The entire Bourne Identity series.

If he just shot the guy on the boat he would never be in that mess that he got himself into

12. This really is excellent advice.

The Exorcist/Ouija/any and all films involving a Ouija board.

“Don’t play with Ouija boards.”

“Ok.”

11. Take the blue pill and forget it ever happened. Do it.

Matrix

Neo: “Sorry, I think you got the wrong number click”

10. The same goes for Alice in Wonderland.

Coraline.

Bobinsky said “Do not go through the little door.” she should’ve listened.

9. In this case, we owe thanks to the misbehaving kids.

Mary Poppins.

If the kids were well behaved, Katie Nanna would have never left, and so there would have been no need for the charming and magical nanny to arrive.

8. I, for one, wish this had happened. #unpopularopinion

Breaking bad.

“I can pay for your cancer treatment

-Oh thank you’re the man”

The end

7. The government should have listened to the scientists in every disaster movie ever.

28 Days Later.

The animal rights people listen to the scientist at the beginning.

6. Why can’t people ever just let the police handle it?

Jeepers Creepers.

“Darry, we should definitely not poke around the creepy, abandoned church that we think a dead body was dumped at, lets just drive to the police and move on with our day because this is a very unsafe situation.”

“You’re absolutely right, Trish. Let’s go to the police and let them handle it.”

Roll the credits.

5. Yeah, that’s basically doing the opposite of what you’re told.

Labyrinth.

Babysit your brother

*main character doesn’t go on a drug trip for 2 hours*

4. Yeah, we’ll just see about that.

Skyfall.

‘Bond you are decommissioned.’

‘Aight imma head out’

3. These might be the worst parents in Disney history.

Frozen

Trolls: Your daughter will be fine. Don’t be fearful of her powers, because fear leads to destruction.

Parents: We understand. Also even though Anna lost her memories of Elsa’s powers, keeping them away from each other for literally no reason would be just cruel so they can continue to play together so long as we set some ground rules to ensure safety.

The End

2. Why couldn’t Hamlet just avenge the murder like a normal son?

While not necessarily a movie, but Hamlet.

If he just killed the uncle that he hated, who banged his mom, and who ghost dad told him to kill, Hamlet wouldn’t have died (or like, almost everyone else), or screwed over Denmark.

1. Well go and ruin a classic, why don’t you?

The Breakfast Club.

If they did what they were told in the first place, no Saturday detention.

I mean…some of these are still guilty pleasures for me, though. I can’t help it!

Do you like any of these? Does it bother you when stupid characters exist to move the plot along?

This Hack Reveals That Private Instagram Accounts Are Not so Private

It’s a battle keeping your photos and posts private on social media – no matter how many times you update your privacy settings, Facebook and Instagram always change them (Facebook owns Instagram).

And now there’s a creepy work around where your followers can easily get your photos and videos and share them. It doesn’t matter if your account is public or private – your followers can distribute your pics and vids either way.

And that’s not supposed to be the case.

Photo Credit: Pexels, energepic

Here’s how the simple hack works

  1. Open up Google Chrome
  2. Go to the Instagram photo you would like to ‘rip’ the URL from
  3. Right click anywhere in the browser
  4. Click “INSPECT”
  5. A side bar will open. Click on “NETWORK” at the top tool bar of the sidebar.
  6. Click IMG

Photo Credit: Google Chrome, Nicole Flasco

Below this tool bar a list of several small thumbnails with apear. You can right click the IMG and copy the web address. I tried it and this is a valid fact.

According to BuzzFeed News, this is possible for public feeds, “private feeds and stories” and “can be viewed, downloaded, and shared publicly…”

Is this the same as taking screen shots of photos?

A Facebook spokesperson says yes.

“The behavior described here is the same as taking a screenshot of a friend’s photo on Facebook and Instagram and sharing it with other people. It doesn’t give people access to a person’s private account.”

The report says no.

“There is a difference between being able to screenshot a private image from a webpage and being able to easily publicly share the URL of that private image with un-authenticated users. These public URLs contain some basic info about the photo or video they link to, including details about how it was uploaded and photo dimensions. They also prove authenticity; you can’t fake one. Beyond this, deleted photos and videos are being stored and accessed on Facebook’s content delivery network after a person took an action to remove them from their profile.”

Photo Credit: Pixabay

The other issue with ripping the URL is traceability. All of your IG and Facebook data is hosted by the social media company’s content delivery network. Currently, Instagram tracks who sees your content. However, if someone grabs the URL, traceability is lost. Now your photos can be used without your permission, and you’d never even know they were floating around the internet.

We’ve all heard the news about Zuckerburg and the privacy issues Facebook has gone through in the past. He promised users that Facebook would shift to being a privacy focused network. So far, I’m not sure things have gotten better.

It this a flaw in Facebook’s security? Or is it unavoidable given internet browser permissions to view HTML? Let us know what you think!

14 Tweets from Teachers from Friday the 13th

Last Friday was the 13th, and it was a full moon, so teachers everywhere were battening down the hatches, girding their loins, or just calling in sick expecting their already crazy jobs to go completely off the deep end.

And while some teachers surely breathed a sigh of relief at the end of the day thinking they’d gotten off easy, these 14 teachers will surely rethink going to work at all the next time such an ominous confluence looms.

14. What a coincidence – this is also what I do on Friday nights.

13. Yeah, let’s just take a quick minute to rethink that idea.

12. You could leave it and claim those are the bloody tears of your students.

11. So…you teach dogs?

10. Middle schoolers will absolutely never give you what you want.

9. I have been this sub, so thank you.

8. Do you give them points for creativity, though?

7. The caption for this headline should win some kind of award.

6. It’s definitely not a 9-5, that’s for sure.

5. You have ONE JOB copy machine.

4. It really is all about how much you can insult them without anyone being able to prove it.

3. Why is this sooooo true there are not enough layers.

2. You have to know when to accept it and when to fight it. Pick your battles, etc.

1. I love how teachers also feel obligated to explain what made that smear.

 

I don’t know; some of these are pretty darn funny!

What about you – do you believe in full moons and Friday the 13th, or is all of this purely coincidence? Let us know in the comments!

People Share Secret Things That Their Parents Don’t Know About Them

Do you keep things from your parents? Stuff that you just think they’re better off not knowing?

Maybe they’re little white lies or maybe they’re big, explosive, dark secrets that would shatter their world.

AskReddit users went on the record and revealed what dear old mom and dad don’t know about them.

1. We’re married!

“I’ve been married for 6 years. My husband and I have been together almost 40 years but we were crazy kids who didn’t need a piece of paper to prove our love. After a health scare my husband’s sister made a comment that implied she had a closer legal relationship than I did. It was offhanded but it made us think.

We already had wills, medical power of attorney, etc., paperwork done but we decided to get married just to make it more cut and dry. Only a few people know we’re married. Our kids and a couple of close friends. And now some people on Reddit.”

2. A terrible secret

“They accused me of coming home ‘strung out.’ I was actually sexually assaulted and just looked like sh*t.”

3. Parents don’t need to hear some things

“I was raped nearly ten years ago. I have PTSD but told them it’s just a panic disorder. Theres a running joke in our family about how I’m so jumpy, they don’t know it’s a startle response. Some things, a parent just doesn’t need to hear about their child.”

4. Sad

“I still have cancer — my mom thinks I’m “cured” (she has Alzheimer’s so we’re not correcting her).”

5. Keep it covered

“That I have a tattoo. It’s been 4.5 years and they have never seen it.”

6. In the dark

“I’m glad my grandfather is dead. He was abusive, but I don’t think my parents realized the extent of it.”

7. Emotional abuse

“My mom doesn’t know that the mental/emotion abuse she inflicted on me as a child almost made me kill myself at thirteen/fourteen. She is a very big denier of these actions and manipulations during my childhood but I’ve gone through therapy and have made my peace. We have a decent relationship now but it will never be what I have with my father.

He’s the reason I stayed on this earth and even then I don’t even think he realizes that he literally saved my life when I asked him to fight for my custody at fifteen. I think he knows to some extent but I don’t want to ever ask if he knew bc I know how painful it is for him, he already struggles with the fact that he didn’t fight for me when they split (I was three). He chose to let me decide for myself and didn’t want me to resent him for taking me away from her without my own decision. I

hit my breaking point and he jumped into action with a lawyer and saved my life. I try my hardest to reassure him that he was trying his best and regardless I still turned out okay but I know he still beats himself up over it.”

8. Worried

“How I constantly worry about them dying.”

9. You don’t know me

“Everything, they never took the time to get to know me.”

10. This is scary

“My parents don’t know that I’ve “awakened” to the fact that we are in a cult and that they are blind devotees. ?

I wanted to leave but I don’t them to disown me. They are lovely people but they have devoted themselves to this stupid cult that they turn into monsters whenever someone criticizes the religion.

They think I’m “fortunate” because I was born “saved” into this stupid cult but in reality they’re being controlled by the cult’s narcissist leader and siphons their money twice a week.”

11. Not just roommates

“That I share a bed (and more) with my “roommate.” “

12. Hiding it well

“My dad always comments on how confident and chill I seem. I’m usually experiencing a lot of anxiety, mostly about money and my future. Hard to let those feelings show, though.”

13. That’s depressing

“That I regularly search the obituaries for their names. I don’t want to have anything to do with them, but I’d like to know when they are dead.”

14. Affected

“That they didn’t provide me with nearly enough emotional connection growing up. Sure I was provided for, but I was never really connected with on an emotional level. I wish they knew how much that affects me.”

15. Scandalous!

“That I failed out of college and have been pretending to go to classes.”

These “Fancy” Words Might Make You Sound a Bit Pretentious

Do you have any friends (or foes) that insist on using big and flowery words? It doesn’t matter if they’re doing it to sound smart or just because it’s how they talk, it’s still annoying, right? I find that this typically occurs in office settings or networking events…ugh.

Lifehacker recent tweeted:

And the responses are quite entertaining!

13. Feeling so juxtaposed

12. How do you pronounce croissant?

11. Stop with the utilization!

10. What does ‘bespoke’ even mean?

9. Just say “collect”

8. In addition to…

7. Just a perfectionist being perfect

6.  “Let’s leverage that skill.” *eye roll*

5. Any sentence that has this word sounds like a backhanded comment

4. On the contrary…

3. What???

2. Really, Karen?

1. An outdated business term

To be clear, if you have a vast vocabulary, we’re not trying to discourage you from using it. Being knowledgable is totally a good thing.

Just please try to not to come off as pretentious or condescending. The point of communicating is to get your point across. Check the highfalutin language at the door.

A Man Opened a Can of Heinz Beans…And Found One Single Bean

If you’re from the U.S., you might not believe a man went home looking forward to cooking the last can of Heinz Beanz in his cupboard.

Apparently, blokes across the pond enjoy a can of beanz for dinner now and again – and it was just what 41-year old lawyer Steve Smith fancied that night after a long day of work.

But inside the can was just a bunch of savory bean juice and one, lonely bean.

Luckily for Steve (and all of us), this happened in 2019 and not 1999, because at least instead of tossing the can and grumbling to himself, he could take his woes to Twitter.

He tweeted a video of his sad attempt at dinner, tagging Heinz before chucking the beans idea and making some eggs, instead.

Steve told The Independent, “I thought it was funny – but annoying. I thought they might see the funny side.”

The jury is out on whether or not Heinz found the incident even slightly amusing, but they did ask for details on the can and offer an apology.

An average can of Heinz Beanz, in case you were wondering, contains around 465 beanz.

Which is…a lot of beanz. Enough to fill you up, I guess!

Here’s hoping Steve’s eggs were just as delicious that night, and that a lifetime supply of beanz are on their way to Bristol, England, right now!

This Is What You Need to Know About the Starbucks ‘Cinderella Latte’ This Pumpkin Season

Here are the facts: there’s no escaping Pumpkin Spice Latte (PSL) season at Starbucks. It’s a national phenomenon, and people are obsessed with it.

And now it’s time to add another Starbucks drink to the list of seasonal favorites.

I’m talking about the “Cinderella Latte,” and you better act fast because these concoctions will be available only as long as the beloved Pumpkin Spice Latte this fall. The Cinderella Latte has been around since 2018 when a Seattle-area barista who’d worked at Starbucks for 7 years came up with the drink, but it has kind flown under the radar, so here’s your chance to order it the right way and be a happier person.

View this post on Instagram

The now famous Cinderella Latte has been spreading magic at coffee shops everywhere this Fall☕?✨ Raise your hand if you have already tried my Disney inspired version of the classic Pumkin Spice Latte?! I still CANNOT believe the number of DM’s, posts and stories that are still coming in. This pic taken by @inkprincess143 of her Cinderella Latte is one of my faves! – THE STORY: I was a barista @starbucks for 7 years here in the Seattle area and I came up with a couple of Disney inspired drinks to spread a little magic to my customers & coworkers. I’ll be sharing another one soon! – CINDERELLA LATTE RECIPE: – Order a Pumpkin Spice Latte – Can be made hot, iced or a blended Frappuccino. – Sub half of the Pumpkin Spice pumps with White Mocha (Or if you have a real sweet tooth, try full pumps of each! ?) – The white pumpkin reminded me of Cinderella’s coach and that’s why I call it the Cinderella Latte ?✨ – THE TEE!! Cinderella latte tees are in the shop now! – YOUR HOMEWORK: Now, go try one for yourself and tag me in your post or stories. Maybe we’ll get @starbucks attention and add it to the menu on Main Street!! – ? @inkprincess143 – – – – – – #happiestteesonearth #starbucks #disneystarbucks #starbucksdisney #psl #cinderellalatte #dcpfall2018 #castmembers #greenapron #sbux #coffee #disneymagic #disneysmmoms #disneylove #cinderella #disneygirls #foodsofdisneyland #disneyhungry #disneyfoodie #disneyfoodies #dressedindisney #styledbymagic #disneylifestylers #disneylifestyle #pumpkinspicelatte #pumpkinspice

A post shared by Happiest Tees On Earth (@happiestteesonearth) on

Ready? Okay. Since this is a secret-menu kind of deal, you can’t just order a Cinderella Latte when you hit your local Starbucks. It’s a little more complicated than that. Pay attention, because you don’t want to BLOW IT. Listen carefully:

  • Order a Pumpkin Spice Latte (I’m sure you know how to do that).
  • Substitute White Chocolate Mocha for half the pumps of Pumpkin Sauce (so you’ll get two pumps of Pumpkin Sauce and two pumps of White Chocolate Mocha).

If you don’t consider yourself a latte person, you can also order this combination as an iced latte or as a frappucino. You can also mix up the pumps if you really want to. Try four pumps of Pumpkin Sauce and four of White Chocolate Mocha, or maybe just one of each if you don’t have an intense sweet tooth.

Give the Cinderella Latte a shot and enjoy fall! It’s right around the corner!
