Woman Wreaks Petty Revenge On A Driver Who Gave Her The Finger After Cutting Her Off In Traffic

I do not see how this is a good thing at all. Yeah he cut her up- but why try and destroy his life and business for it? Nasty is as nasty does

Nostalgia...? But the 90s were just 10 years ago, right? haha... who would be nostalgic for 10 years ago?.... wait, what? What's that you say? The 90s were 30 YEARS AGO? D: ...but for reals, the tagline of my favorite "oldies" radio station from my childhood was "The greatest hits of the 60s and 70s!" when I was growing up (I was born in 1982.) Now it's "The greatest hits of the 70s, 80s, and 90s!" My childhood music is now "oldies" ;_;

50 Of The Most Insignificant Things That Shifted Realities For These People

A decision I don't even remember taking: In the 90s I worked for a small publisher in Honolulu that got bought out by a larger firm. All the "new" employees had to fill out tons of paperwork for insurance, direct deposit, credit union accounts, etc. A few years later Hurricane Iniki hit the islands, and my husband's new fishing boat was sunk with all hands board. As a new widow I was preparing to sell our home to pay off massive debts. It was then that the CEO of my firm asked "didn't you check the box to have your husband on your insurance?" I didn't remember doing so, but he pulled the paperwork anyway. There it was, a small check mark authorizing payment of 50¢ per paycheck for accidental death for my husband. The payout was enough to save my home, and allowed me to continue living in Hawaii for the next decade.

Woman Traveled Through Europe, Shares Insane Things That Went Wrong

For crying out loud, no one is jumping on her bed. If you've ever travelled on a night train, you literally climb onto your bunk bed like that. And YES, you should know what Oktoberfest is if you're planning on attending. And it doesn't take a high IQ to know that southern Europe is...hot in the summer. That is, granted, if you bother in reading a little and are not completely into your self absorbed bubble. Btw, your attempt at sarcasm failed.

Woman Traveled Through Europe, Shares Insane Things That Went Wrong

This is misleading. It's apparent from the language and circumstances that this isn't just one person, and it's definitely not all women. Also, I doubt a few of these. I'm not going into which ones. Basically I think someone built this patchwork style from other stories and claimed it happened to them for some reason.

Woman Traveled Through Europe, Shares Insane Things That Went Wrong

Most if this could have been avoided with good preparation, situational awareness and common sense.

Woman Traveled Through Europe, Shares Insane Things That Went Wrong

well just to pick one... if you dont want weird old men as hostel mates 1) book an HOTEL 2) book an all female dorm.

Woman Traveled Through Europe, Shares Insane Things That Went Wrong

95% of these and other stories on internet are caused by having read no instructions (europass for instance) or reviews when booking, having done zilch research beforehand about how to behave, how to communicate, what to have at hand, which cultural pecularities to expect, which risks are (not) present, exclusions of the health insurance and why it is excluded, food and drinks tips (no icecubes!!!) and warnings and travellers reviews. If you go travelling to another country, AND a different continent on your own, it is a no-brainer to gather not only as much information as possible about your destination, but also how to get there and which type of luggage suits your means of transportation best. It is beyond me, why all this and applying some common sense was impossible for this person and dozens of her type, complaining on all kind of social media. Abozt the suitcade: Read the small print that came with your ticket. Follow these instructions, keep the receipt, take photos...

Woman Traveled Through Europe, Shares Insane Things That Went Wrong

Please don’t visit Europe without research and if you do, don’t make posts like this. Europe is very different compared to Australia, America, Asia etc. . Finland here, Yes we have beautiful nature and the norther lights, it is also very cold and windy and wet. So don’t be surpised if you come here and it rains in July. This person shares everything that went wrong, not a single thing that was good. If you are sick in Europe, you can just walk to a hospital and they will take care of you.

The train one annoys me- the person is climbing down from the bunk. Not anything creepy- if you don't want to share a bunk cabin then book a private one. And if cost is an issue tough deal with sharing the space

Woman Wreaks Petty Revenge On New Neighbors Who Keep Slandering Her To The Property Manager

Huh. She says she's gotten no complaints, but she's had 3 different neighbors in the 4 years she's been there. That could mean 3 tenants decided they'd rather just move than deal with her sh*t. And instead of working with management calmly and maturely, she's thinking up ways to "punish" this other adult. This is f***ing just sad all round, this didn't need to be on the internet, why is this chick not just b*tching with her friends and getting over this, instead it's this outrage clickbait. And I clicked it, and you clicked it! Lol they got us again

I chose to be nice to everyone in high-school, even the kids people thought were weird. F****d my life up pretty bad 10 years ago and recently got a call asking if I wanted to train as a software developer by one of those kids. I was frying chicken in a gas station for scraps. Dude told me he remembered me being smart and into that stuff and knew I could learn fast

Life is hard sometimes so just be excellent to each other, you never know what kind of impact you can have.
