Most relationships might seem rosy from the outside. However, the statistics are quite harrowing. The National Domestic Violence Hotline reports that almost half of women (48.4%) and men (48.8%) in the US have experienced psychological aggression by an intimate partner. Sometimes, the victims might choose public revenge to make themselves feel better and let others know what kind of person their ex is.The OP in this story decided to do a similar thing. After she and her ex-boyfriend ended things badly, he told her no…

A strained family relationship can be difficult enough to bear as it is, especially with all the negativity and stress it often entails. But some people manage to make it even worse for those involved by doing something as absurd as starting a ridiculous rumor.That’s what this redditor’s aunt did when she said that the OP—her niece—had a crush on her. But instead of taking such accusations to heart, the netizen decided to retaliate by using malicious compliance. Some family relationships never seem to take a turn for…

Family relationships can be difficult to navigate as they are, not to mention when discrimination-related issues arise.This redditor wasn’t close to his kin, which is why he seemingly wasn’t too upset over his cousin not being able to make it to his wedding on the other side of the country. But the cousin sure was and blamed the OP for discriminating against them, which resulted in an even bigger altercation after the groom-to-be revealed what cruel prank the cousin had pulled on the OP’s girlfriend in the past.In order…

As we’ve seen during the pandemic, retail workers are essential. According to NCSL, 1 out of 10 domestic workers in the US works in the retail industry.

The management wanted their bookkeepers to be unhappy and overworked for some reason. Well aware of their rights, the…

Not everything we buy works. Some things, like clothes, don’t fit. Other times, the item can arrive damaged, defective or just not up to our standards. But that’s what the refund policy is for. We can go back to the store (or send it back, if ordered online) and get our money back.But it might not go as smoothly every time. This Redditor encountered a salty customer service clerk when he wanted to return an unused impact wrench. The clerk refused to issue a refund because the receipt was too old. Well, malicious…

It was 2015. Trump had recently announced his campaign for president with his “Mexico isn’t sending their best” speech, and Kelly Osbourne was a guest host on The View, discussing Trump’s stance on immigration alongside hosts, including Whoopi Goldberg and Rosie Perez.  “If you kick every Latino out of this country,” Osbourne started, letting out a nervous giggle. “Then who is going to be cleaning your toilets, Donald Trump?” The camera focused on Osbourne’s face as she quickly realized — thanks to her…
