This is one of my favorite stories. I only observed the events or was told firsthand by those involved. This is a true story.

Working in a crappy thrift store chain. Coworkers are cool as shit though. Befriend all the ones remotely close to my age. Customers are still terrible though. Especially the ones with the shitty kids that just terrorize the store while they absent-mindedly browse and shop.

One day this little shit is just running around the store and just making extra work for everybody for no good reason. Opening sealed bags of random toys. Etc.

After finally having enough of his bullshit, a coworker friend goes over to the kid and tells him, very sternly, he needs to go back to his mom. Little shit runs back and complains to his mom whom happens to be a total bitch; like when I hear the term "Karen" being used, she's a textbook example of one.

Karen escalates, fast forward to outside the managers office, there stands Karen, my Friend, Manager and Little Shit.

While Karen is bitching to the Manager about how "Friend can't talk to her kid like that" & "he's not his father," etc. The Little Shit looks at Friend and with a taunting edge stated: "You're gonna get fired!" Without missing a beat Friend looks Little Shit in the eye and replies with a simple Fuck You. A 34 year old man saying that to some 10 year old brat? Hilarious. Everybody just fell silent with their jaw on the ground. Karen, Manager and Little Shit all silent for a moment. The rage building in Karen was written all across her face though. When she could finally utter words Manager started with "Friend, go home." "Okay!" He left with a great big smile on his face... he did get fired because of that though. He said it was worth it.

Don't misquote him. He said "worse day of my life"

I get what you mean... but I don't think anybody is really gonna get that obsessive over your porn history in the wake of your death. Some random stranger who acquires any of your surviving electronics might find it but at that point who cares?... and even if your friends and family find out you're into weird sex stuff, if you're already dead, who cares? Making em laugh one last time would be worth it in a time of grief.

What other people think about me is none of my business.

Thank you. That's one of my little pet peeves I see online; that and when people are trying to say lose but type loose.

Maaan, I had so many different skins for my Winamp player. Was such a great time to be on the internet. It was open and anonymous and had yet to be fully commercially exploited.

Thank you. This is just a reaction shitty people can have regardless of gender. If their fragile ego can't handle a rejection they go to anger and insults immediately. So bizarre.

Yeah, I bought a JBL Clip after having borrowed one from my at the time gf's dad. The sound quality was a lot better than what I was expecting especially for such a small speaker; along with the added benefit of being waterproof it was worth the investment to me personally.

Yes my bathroom shower routine is long enough I will justify putting on music. Even if it's a 5 minute drive to the store I'm going to want music. If I can have music playing I'm usually going to be listening. I don't understand those people who have broken radios in their car and just drive in silence, or the people who have blown out speakers but don't care about the quality. I can't do it lol

You can get one. They get imported. Search for Japanese car imports to your local area. Search for Kei Truck and you'll find em. You can get an awd turbo diesel for around 8-10k

Which is funny because the opposite law in Japan is what resulted in the tiny truck on the right. They have a class of cars, Kei cars, that are small and very economical. So if a car was too big and wasn't efficient enough they'd have to pay fees... so they went tiny.

My coworker showed me their attempt at this frog cake and hilarity ensued. What do you guys think?

I guess that saying "like a moth to the flame" exists for a reason. This lil guy could not help himself.
