It’s challenging to have a hobby that people want to take advantage of. When I tell people I play adult dodgeball, nobody breaks down my door to ask me to give them 30-minute dodgeball lessons for free. Quite the opposite, they usually ask me to get away from them. But if you make stained glass pieces or knit baby blankets, your services might be desired by members of your social circle. That’s all well and good in moderation, but if you’re monetizing your hobby, it would get frustrating if every aunt, uncle, and cousin wanted you to make something for them free of charge.Some requests can be annoying, but the request at the center of this story can only be chalked up to teenage hubris. A 15-year-old asked her 14-year-old sister to crochet 250 (you heard that right) stuffed bunnies for her 16th birthday party, which will be happening on October 25th. There are absurd requests, and then there’s this.

Whether we admit to it or not, everyone (and everything) has their flaws. Try as we might, perfection is a possibility that is pretty much unachievable. This is why, within reason, we have to be understanding of when somebody or something can’t offer up exactly what we might expect it to, or what it might give us in an ideal world. It’s a concept that memes spend plenty of time playing around with, and for all they can be very judgmental they also give us an outlet to express those feelings or even just plain silliness that we might hold in otherwise. While not every meme will always be exactly what we want it to be, that is a good enough reason to approach these images with a neutral mind and see the grander perspective in these small and insignificant things. Or you could just do the internet equivalent of throwing popcorn, your choice. 

Every parent makes mistakes, some of which can seem stupid and avoidable in hindsight. Keeping a small person with little common sense or ability to do anything useful is pretty darn difficult at times. However, when it comes to parenting there are some decisions that can only be designated as reckless. Occasionally, there can be no excuses.This was the overwhelming conclusion of the internet after a TikTok-influencing stay-at-home mom uploaded a video about her family’s flight to Thailand. Revealing how her one-year-old had acquired a fever of nearly 104 degrees a couple of hours before they were due to leave for the airport, the parents decided to proceed with their travel plans because they had cost them thousands of dollars. Needless to say, this wasn’t an easy experience for them and many viewers were adamant that it was wrong to put a price on their child’s health. It was a dumb thing to do.

Your primary focus should always be your family. But would you be prepared to jeopardize your own tranquility in order to provide a home for your brother and his two kids?The story below is an account of a frustrated brother. Since he has a steady source of income, the original poster (OP) can afford a lovely spacious home. Therefore, family members typically contact OP when they need short-term housing. Even though his brother is in dire need of shelter because his house flooded and won’t be habitable for some time, OP is hesitant to welcome his brother back because his kids damaged a family heirloom the last time around.That being said, be sure to read the story below if you’re interested in knowing what happens next and whether or not OP complies with his family’s demands! After you’re done, don’t forget to read about the man who surprises his family by asking his favorite nephew to his wedding despite the shocking discovery that he is not related by DNA but rather the result of his mother’s extramarital affair!

To many, Costco is more than just a bulk grocery store. It’s home. It’s where you turn when you need a dirt cheap rotisserie chicken, a gallon-sized tub of spinach artichoke dip, or more frozen dumplings than you could ever fathom eating except that you CAN because they’re that delicious. It’s where you go when you’re feeling lost… to recenter yourself in the fridge room, shivering while you pick up eggs. It’s where you go to connect with your fellow man, waiting in line to sample some new probiotic drink you’ll drink out of a tiny paper cup. It’s where you go to fill your stomach only using the spare change in your pocket, where a dollar will still get you somewhere. When you’re at Costco, you’re welcomed into the widespread arms of other deal hunters and parents stocking up to feed their families. Heck, you might even buy jeans there. The least we can do is honor it with memes.
