Turns Out the Viral Cat Who Dances Before He Drinks Water Is Not the Only Feline Friend to Do So, Other Cat Parents Share Their Silly Little Kitty's Water Dance

LOL Cats - Fri, 03/03/2023 - 01:00

Cat parents know that our feline friends are one of a kind. They're masters of their own story, they are silly, cute, cuddly, mean, and happy. Ya never know what you're gonna get. Sometimes, however, in the cat parenting community something turns out to be a pattern with some cats. For instance, orange/ginger cats all share one brain cell. Black cats tend to get adopted the least, yet turn out to be the sweetest. And, the most recent, is that there are many cats who like to do a little dance in front of their water bowl before or during drinking. 

This came into the new cycle when one adorable little city went viral for his "water dance" online. Every time he was presented with a glass, mug, or even champagne flute of water, he would first do a little dance in front of the vessel holding his hydration and then proceed to drink. It was so adorable it went extremely viral. However, many other cat parents saw this and now we are seeing that this is actually a common thing for cats to do. 

Why do cats do this? Well, there are many theories. One from ozzicat.com says that cats like to imitate running water while they're drinking because running water is more appealing to them. Betterwithcats.net says they paw around it like that because it is an instinct and it is them "claiming" the water bowl.

Whatever the real reason is, one fact we can rely on is that it is absolutely adorable and cat parents are going to post their feline friends doing the "water dance" as much as possible. And we definitely encourage that behavior! We've picked some of our favorite cats doing the 'ole water razzle dazzle below. 

Funniest Feline Memes for Hooman Cat Lovers Who Can Relate With Their Kitty on a Spiritual Level (March 2, 2023)

LOL Cats - Thu, 03/02/2023 - 17:00

Projection is one of the main psychological coping  mechanism of paranoia and narcissistic behavior. So when I give my cat a voice in my head to have conversations with one another, does that mean I might be crazy? Of course not. Sure, we might be paranoid that we don't have someone to relate with us, but then you look at your cat, sprawled out length-wise on the carpet living their best life, and you know in your heart that you can relate with your kitty on a spiritual level. The adoration and love in your cattos eyes when they look at a full bowl of food is the same exact expression you get when your plate arrives at a restaurant. Your cat just gets you. So when you project your emotions and experiences on your kitten, you're 100% in the right.

Fail Blog - Thu, 03/02/2023 - 16:00

It can be a struggle to find a workplace that has a satisfactory amount of employees on a team, AKA isn't severely understaffed.

'IT'S NOT A SIDEWALK': Neighborhood Karen makes wild group post about school kids walking on school property adjacent to her property

Fail Blog - Thu, 03/02/2023 - 15:00

You know you've truly lost the plot when your crusty curmudgeonous ways evolve from "Get off my lawn!" into "Get off the area adjacent to my lawn!" Maybe—just—maybe… you shouldn't live next door to a school if you're this sensitive to the presence of children. 

This overwhelmed Karen posted to her neighborhood's community group to complain about the student's usage of the mulch strip as a sidewalk. At first, the post reads as if the kids are using areas of her property to traverse to and from school… but clarifying comments that were posted in response make it pretty clear that this is the area directly adjacent to her property. 

Keep reading to see the screenshots of this post, the ensuing exchange, and all the reactions. For more, check out this Karen, who tried to get an "excluding" adults-only private Valentine's Day party canceled because her kids weren't allowed to attend. 

Adorable Kittens Wake Up Giant Sleeping Man By Fiercely Meowing And Climbing All Over Him (Video)

LOL Cats - Thu, 03/02/2023 - 14:00

Looking at kittens, tiny and adorable as they are, you may hold the misconception in your head that they are not dangerous. But that's exactly what it is - a misconception. Tiny kittens are incredibly fierce. The smaller they are, the more power they hold over us. Seriously. They have the power to make us aww uncontrollably - that's not something to joke about. One look at an itty bitty kitty, and our hearts melt- we're ready to do just about anything for them.

But it's not just emotional powers that kittens have. Kittens, despite their size, are not afraid to wage war against enemies much larger. We've seen everything from kittens sneak attacking full-grown cats, to kittens fiercely battling huge (yet gentle) dogs who are about 100 times their size, all the way to a kitten waging war against a man's ear - which is also about the same size as the kitten, i.e. a very worth opponent. And today, we bring you a video of two very, very fierce kittens who have gotten totally sick of their human sleeping, so they decided to meow and climb all over him until he's conquered and awakened. 

'I’m poor and you're rich': Moocher refuses to let BFF have slice of pizza she 'didn't pay for'

Fail Blog - Thu, 03/02/2023 - 14:00

The cost of a friendship should ideally be more than the cost of a pizza pie. For this woman, it represented the final straw in her relationship with a formerly close friend. 

Friendships can end in all sorts of ways. Sometimes one person moves, or you go in different directions in life that make your friendship incompatible. For this OP, u/InteractionFirst5109, she and her BFF Dawn had a falling out for financial reasons

She writes that she and Dawn both work full time, though the OP has a higher salary. For some reason, this leads Dawn to believe that the OP will pick up the tab on "driving, hosting, cooking, etc." For a while, she didn't mind, but once the OP noticed her best friend stopped even bringing cash along to offer to pay, it soured her view of the relationship. 

Next, this guy often helps out his neighbors during winter storms, but he might think twice after one of his new neighbors ripped him a new one.

'You're not supposed to have these': Retail employee asked to do manager's work, gets shamed by his boss's boss, malicious compliance ensues!

Fail Blog - Thu, 03/02/2023 - 13:00

You know that moment when you're tasked with doing your manager's job for free and then subsequently shamed for it? Many of us have been there.

 

In this case, this Redditor worked at a little well-known retail chain we'll refer to as Great Bill. The Redditor, who uses the pseudonym Nat and who shared his story via this now-deleted thread on Reddit's r/MaliciousCompliance subreddit, was asked by his store manager to do returns by using the store manager and head cashier's tags to sign in. Then, one day, the district manager - whom Nat calls Super B**** - waltzes in and immediately takes issue with what Nat is doing. Nat gets completely shamed for this, and by the time his supervisors step in to say it's ok for him to keep doing returns, Nat decided to stand his ground. Until he receives an apology, he will not be doing extra work. We'd like to also amend this statement by saying that he shouldn't be doing this work anyway until he receives a little thing called a promotion.

'AITA for refusing to help my neighbor?': Snowy snafu turns entitled woman against wise neighbor

Fail Blog - Thu, 03/02/2023 - 12:00

This guy wondered if he was in the wrong for trying to be a good neighbor to some folks who made a snap judgement about him.

 As the OP, u/goodneighbor123 wrote to r/AmItheA**hole, he and his family moved to Ontario, Canada, where the conditions are frosty cold. Since he's familiar with the weather conditions, he writes that he often puts his wife's windshield wipers up before a storm. Then, he strolls the neighborhood to where his five other neighbors live and puts their wipers up for them, just in case they forget. Typical "good neighbor" behavoir, right? Well, the new folks in town didn't take kindly to a stranger touching their property. 

After the OP got yelled at by these new people, he decided to just do exactly as they asked: get off their property and never touch their belongings again. When the neighbors then needed his help the literal next day, they were shocked to see that he was complying with what they said. You can't have it both ways! In the comments, some people advised the OP to not even interact with the family until they resolve the issue. 

Then, these sellers really thought they had hidden treasures in their homes, but the buyers of this random trash aren't so sure.

'Your manager's job [...] is not your problem': Manager's job is at risk, asks employee to give up their promotion

Fail Blog - Thu, 03/02/2023 - 11:00

Imagine getting a call from your boss asking for your promotion...

 

We certainly feel for this manager and their family as this company deals with impending layoffs. However, calling your employee and asking for them to keep their current position so that you can make a play at the promotion they were offered? That's wildly unprofessional and if anyone were to find out about this kind of conscious manipulation, that manager could very well be digging their own grave at this point. Sure, we empathize with their situation, but we are far more sympathetic toward their employee, who expressed their discomfort at the way this whole phone call went down. They shared their story via this thread on Reddit's r/TrueOffMyChest subreddit, and let's just say that people in the comments section were far less kind with regard to the manager's behavior than the Redditor was. 

 

Keep scrolling below to see what they had to say. When you're finished, here's another post about a Karen who ruined her own job interview by being rude to the receptionist.

'You need to stay until 1 a.m.': Exhausted fast food employee working 11 hours shames toxic manager and stands up for himself in front of all his coworkers, manager gives him the “silent treatment”

Fail Blog - Thu, 03/02/2023 - 10:00

A company that rhymes with "Yaco Dell" has a strong cult following for its Tex-Mex menu items. People are obsessed with their speciality items—so obsessed that they forget the company is owned by one of the largest money-hungry corporations who fight to keep minimum wage as low as possible. So is it really that surprising that the management at "Yaco Dell," which is usually employeed by teenagers, is toxic?

An employee working as a new shift lead recently shamed their manager in front of all of his coworkers. They had already been working an 11-hour shift and were exhausted. It was a particularly busy day and their feet were on fire at this point. The manager approached them and told them (didn't ask them) that they had to stay several hours later then they were initially scheduled to. The employee was in no shape to do so and had no intention to, so he asked if they could discuss this in the office. The manager refused and told them to say whatever they wanted to right there in front of everyone. 

So they did, they told their manager exactly what they were thinking—that there is no way they are staying any extra hours and that if anyone should stay longer, in should be the management who has been working way less hours and can handle it. What is with managers thinking they can just add double duty to their employees like this one also did! Read the entire "Yaco Dell" employee epically standing up for themselves below. 

'50% salary decrease': New job cuts worker's pay by $30k shortly after recruiting them

Fail Blog - Thu, 03/02/2023 - 09:00

Trick a worker into quitting their job and joining your organization, then they're well and truly trapped when you cut their pay by 50%… Talk about a cunning trap. That's exactly what this worker shared experiencing in a post shared to Reddit's r/antiwork subreddit community. 

In a post titled '50% salary decrease…', they discussed the situation. "My new job just cut my salary by $30k, only a couple months into the job." the post begins, "I was making $65k, and now I'm making $35k LOL. They tried to gaslight me into thinking I wasn't experienced enough for the role, but that's BS because I was making $60k in a comparable role before taking on this job."

That sounds like a pretty rough situation, especially to go from earning $60k at the previous job to thinking you'll be earning $65k in the foreseeable future only to have the rug pulled out from under you and go to earning half your previous wage. This has to be illegal somehow; this employer has stolen this guy's entire life. Absolutely this guy shouldn't have signed the new contract, but what else would you do in that situation? The only thing he can really do is go crawling back to his old employer… This is why you don't burn bridges, folks.

If that wasn't an option, it's safe to say that you probably still wouldn't stay at that job for any longer than you had to. Still, the job application and interview process can take a painful amount of time and energy—especially when you're working a full-time job. 

 Readers let their thoughts be known in the comments, encouraging the worker to strike back at the employer by quitting with no notice as soon as they had found another job—others had even more out-the-gate suggestions.
