Women Working in Male-Dominated Industries Share Their Horror Stories on Twitter

I honestly can’t even imagine how tough it must be to be one of the only women in a male-dominated industry. One of my cousins actually fits that description, and the stories she’s told me are no joke.

Still, nothing compares to the Twitter replies on @lameravioli‘s post:

Yikes! She also shared a couple of other incidents:

Unfortunately, this is only the beginning. Here’s one from a restaurant manager:

And there’s this one about working in construction:

That’s frustrating on several levels. Here’s a fun one about working in a hardware store:

Here’s one about a pastor who wanted to file a complaint with the manager over pants, of all things:

Here’s another one about clothing:

This is just a small sample of the stories shared on this thread. There are so many more. Hats off to the women who are breaking barriers and working in male-dominated fields, and fellas, if you see this nonsense, call it out.

This New Way to Eat Pineapples Is the Biggest News of 2019

Pineapples are absolutely yummy (unless they’re on a pizza, but that’s a whole other story). Sadly, they’re also kinda hard to eat if you’re actually trying to do it from scratch and not get the syrupy canned versions. Do I peel, then cut? Do I cut, then peel? What’s the best knife for it, and how do I not chop my hand off in the process?

Even if you’re a pineapple-slicing professional, it’s a whole elaborate process. Your other options are to buy pre-sliced pineapple or just… give up on this delicious fruit.

But wait. THERE IS A BETTER WAY. You can apparently just eat pineapple with your bare hands, and honestly, this is the biggest development of the year, as far as I’m concerned!

Photo Credit: TikTok

This pineapple hack comes to the world courtesy of a TikTok user. @dillonroberts22 posted a video that shows someone ripping off individual pieces of pineapple and (really loudly) chomping on them. It’s about 2 seconds long, and those 2 seconds basically changed the world.

The video spread like wildfire on Twitter, where people were genuinely shocked that there is a whole other way to eat pineapple that nobody knew about WTF.

Photo Credit: Twitter

Some people even ventured to try the trick at home, sure that the TikTok video was a hoax. But nope – it’s 100% real, folks.

A few wise Twitter users took everyone else to Pineapple School, where they explained that pineapples actually consist of a whole bunch of berries fused together. Each individual piece is a berry, which is why they can be torn off like that.

Mind blown. It’s almost too good to be true.

Brilliant Twitter Thread Shows Why Men Should Think Twice Before Letting ‘The One’ Get Away

There are so many reasons not to fully commit to someone. When I say “commit,” I don’t just mean updating your relationship status on Facebook – I’m talking about really wanting to make a life with someone. It’s a tricky thing: maybe you’re too young for a relationship, or you rushed into it, or you have very different goals, or maybe you just want to keep having sex with other people.

Things eventually get sour and you guys split up (or they get tired of you bulls*** and dump you), but you stay friends. Maybe they even agree that there’s a chance you can get back together if you put in the work on improving yourself. She’ll come back, right?

Wrong.

Your perfect woman will not be there for you because she was already “grieving your loss,” while you were acting like a jerk. Once she’s done…she’s done. She will move on. Scientific Twitter Research has shown this to be true.

Twitter user Rev Rell give us some background information on her friend who let “the one” get away.

Photo Credit: Twitter

But did he do any sort of soul-searching to figure out what he really wanted? Spoiler: no.

Photo Credit: Twitter

The fact that his former girlfriend had actually moved on surprised him. Why? Dunno.

Photo Credit: Twitter

Oh, dear. A misunderstanding. She probably couldn’t make herself clear because she was too busy hurling his shit out the window.

Photo Credit: Twitter

So, just want to put this out there now: Stalking is not romantic.

Photo Credit: Twitter

Not suprisingly, other Twitter-ites agreed.

Photo Credit: Twitter

Such a good friend and so much good stuff here. ARE YOU TAKING NOTES??

Photo Credit: Twitter

Basically he needs her to make him a better man for someone else.

Photo Credit: Twitter

Take people for granted much?

Photo Credit: Twitter

The cloistered nun convent must have been closed.

Photo Credit: Twitter

Is six months in the breakup handbook?

Photo Credit: Twitter

It’s perfectly acceptable to cry at weddings.

Photo Credit: Twitter

I bet hearing this guy whine about losing the girl has been a real pleasure for all his friends.

Photo Credit: Twitter

These are things people need to know.

Photo Credit: Twitter

Real love advice on Twitter. Appreciate the people that love you and never take them for granted. And, if you did lose, then lose gracefully and let her find happiness.

15 Tweets That’ll Make You Feel Really, REALLY Old

I can’t deny it any longer: I’m getting OLD. My bones have started to make random noises when I move (especially in the morning), and I find myself constantly thinking, “That was so much better when I was a kid,” every time I check out the movies, shows, and music that my nieces and nephews are into.

These tweets aren’t helping matters much – I have a feeling they’re gonna affect you the same way they affected me: they’ll make you feel ANCIENT.

1. OH MY GOD

Photo Credit: Twitter

2. How does this work?

3. Gen Z

10. Old as SH*T

11. I remember it well

Photo Credit: Twitter

12. That is not good

Photo Credit: Twitter

13. Not exactly

Photo Credit: Twitter

14. Were they ever wrong?

Photo Credit: Twitter

15. What could it be?

Photo Credit: Twitter

Well… it’s 2:30. Time for my nap… ::sigh::

PETA Tried Dissing the Late Steve Irwin and the Internet Was NOT Having It

Steve Irwin, the Australian conservationist known as “The Crocodile Hunter,” was the Dr. Dolittle of the millennial generation. We grew up watching his show, we were deeply influenced by his passion for wildlife, and we all wept when he died tragically in 2006.

On what would have been Irwin’s 57th birthday on February 22, Google honored him with a Google doodle on its homepage.

Most people on Twitter were moved by the tribute.

And then PETA decided to get in on the action…bad move.

Photo Credit: Twitter

People, predictably, got pretty fired up and decided to try to put PETA in its place.

As you can see, people feel pretty strongly about Mr. Irwin and work he did while he was alive.

And finally, we have this…

Crikey!
