This fun little work story happened post‑Thanksgiving Saturday at a dealership. Just imagine how joyous this must be: The service lane fills up, the scheduler loses the plot, and a quick tech suddenly finds out what rock bottom staffing really looks like. Cars keep showing up until there is literally no space left in the lot, tickets stack higher than the oil filters, and five other techs collectively decide this isn't what they signed up for. They drop a quick "we're out" and invite the oil‑change guy to join the exodus. Military brain says no, so everyone else clocks out of the story while one person stays in the bay and keeps working.

From there, it just turns into survival mode. A couple of techs get dragged in off their day off, the skeleton crew grinds through dozens of cars, and the day blurs into a mix of rotations, oil changes, and controlled chaos. Management does what management always does when someone bails the place out. Shakes some hands, says a lot of grateful words, hands over a gift card that covers maybe one good burger run, and then turns the whole thing into a "values" anecdote at the next all‑hands. The walkouts are gone, one of them tries to crawl back later, and the one person who actually held the line gives proper notice and leaves a few months after.

The beautiful thing about the cat distribution system is that it can truly catch you anywhere and at any time. You can be doing the most ordinary thing when your soulcat finds you, and just like that, in a meowment, your life changes forever. You can go on a quick pizza run and come back with a kitten. You can go get a quick coffee at Starbucks and come back with a cat. You can go grab some essentials at Walmart and come back with the most essential thing of all that you didn't even know you needed.

And, like this person, you can hop over for a quick dinner and return with an extra hungry mouth to feed in the form of an adorable kitten who chose you. It really can happen anywhere. And the second most beautiful thing about the cat distribution system is that truly chosen ones do not fight being chosen. They just go along, accepting their fate as cat owners and never looking back ever again. 

This disgruntled man tried to get out of trouble after his neighbor confronted him directly for his unacceptable behavior.

Look, whatever happened to leaving one another's belongings alone? For whatever reason, this old man, who clearly had been living in the neighborhood for decades and who there felt entitled to do whatever he wanted, felt compelled to push his neighbor's trash can all the way into his driveway when he thought no one was looking. That meant that the garbage pickup folks didn't get rid of the neighbor's trash. 

Now, this didn't just happen once. It was a weekly occurrence, and the resident was able to see via his security footage that an old man in the neighborhood was behind this. Why he felt the need to do this every week was not exactly clear. Perhaps he felt that the trash cans were too far into the street (they weren't). Perhaps he felt that they were impeding his morning walks. Or perhaps he just wanted to start drama and ruin someone else's day.

Keep scrolling below to find out what happened when the author who shared this anecdote confronted the old man he believes is responsible!

When an item in a store has a price tag on it, the store is obligated to sell that item at that price, no matter what. Even if a junior employee made a mistake and priced it at 10% of the actual price, the store is the one that has to face the consequences. 

(This one time, I managed to buy shoes that someone priced at $5 instead of $50, and it was one of the most exciting moments of my life. I couldn't believe it when I saw the price tag, and the store couldn't do anything against it, even though it was an obvious mistake.)

The store manager in the story below wants to avoid these kinds of mistakes, so they have a very specific planogram that everyone must follow. However, this planogram is not flawless, and it prevents new or seasonal items from being put on the shelves. And instead of being open to the employees and finding ways to fix it, this helicopter manager refuses to listen to any of their input.

Black Friday is officially here, which means humans everywhere are waking up at dawn, putting on their most tactical leggings, and preparing to do battle for a discounted air fryer they absolutely do not need. But while everyone else is out scoring deals, black cats are at home living their best, most unbothered lives.

Black Friday for pets would look very different. 90% off feather wands that will be ignored immediately, buy-one-get-one treats they'll somehow still refuse, and half-priced cat beds they'll pretend don't exist because the real luxury is sleeping on your freshly folded laundry. Meanwhile, the cardboard box the items came in is the real doorbuster.

Receiving your ex-tenant's mail is a real pain in the…mailbox. People barely want their mailboxes overflowing with their own unnecessary ads and letters, let alone those of others. Next thing you know, you're super tired and caught off guard when you're sitting face to face with a $500 speeding fine. But when you look at the letter more closely, you realise it wasn't addressed to you, but your ex-tenant. Jerry was always in a rush…Besides the point. It gets annoying and normally ends up in the front yard trash anyway. 

This couple had been receiving their ex-tenants' mail for the last few years. But they had a daily routine solution: pick it up, trash it down. Easy as pie. Until they noticed something strange about one of his envelopes. They opened it up to find a happy birthday, love mom & dad card and a cheque to go with it! They used the number on the letter to get a hold of his parents, informing them that their son hasn't changed his mail address in the 4 years since they moved in…Now we have a slight inkling that, due to the speed at which they stopped receiving his letters, his parents had a strong word with him about his misdelivered mail!

Sharing a driveway with your neighbor may not always be incredible, but it's certainly doable if each person respects one another's space! However, if one neighbor feels like their space isn't being respected, it's okay to draw a line, or in this case, paint a physical thick one down the middle. Not out of spite, but out of mutual understanding. These neighbors agreed on the dividing line, however, one neighbor, Duncan, was unable to keep within his zone, continuously parking slightly over the line. Now we're not saying this is the most lethal crime ever committed, but it does mean that his neighbor has to struggle to get in and out of his parking spot… 

After multiple ignored requests to 'make space', Duncan's neighbor decided to park his spare car right up against the line, now limiting his space and mobility! If only he had moved his car over that extra 40cm in the first place, he wouldn't have to spend 20 minutes every day doing 15-point turns…Petty revenge or strategic justice?

Black Friday is fun for people, but for cats, it's just another chance to act like they own the store. They march into bags like they're browsing luxury boutiques, climb into carts as if they're VIP customers, and stare at every item like they're deciding whether it meets their very high standards. If a deal doesn't involve treats, toys, or boxes, they're not interested.

Cats don't chase discounts. They chase luxury. They'll ignore the budget food and demand the premium brand, insist on the softest bed money can buy, and expect the fanciest toys like they're shopping with a limitless credit card. Try to offer something cheap, and you'll get a look that says, "Wow. Embarrassing."

And of course, the best part of Black Friday (according to cats) is not the items themselves. It's the boxes, bags, and receipts. They don't care what you bought. THEY are the prize now. You went out for deals, but you came home with a furry little CEO ready to sit on all your purchases and claim them as their own.

Most of us work in an environment where a jump scare can cause a major typo. And typos can be annoying or embarrassing or, in some cases, cost money. But a typo won't put anyone in danger.

Jump scares in an office or ones in a carnival haunted house are one thing, a jump scare next to a spinning blade and a 400 lb metal part is basically begging for disaster. This factory worker stands at a machine that could turn a mistake into scrap metal and a body into a cautionary tale, and the workplace clown decides this is the perfect moment for hands on shoulders and a loud boo from behind.

Industrial safety sounds like it's already on thin ice. Everyone knows the rule: do not distract someone running heavy machinery, yet somehow a grown adult hears that and thinks exception for friendship. First warning comes from a lead who literally spells it out, and instead of adjusting, the coworker upgrades from talking in the danger zone to physical contact during an operation that needs full focus. That is not a prank, it is playing roulette with someone else's life because boredom kicked in on shift.

Everyone needs a furrever home. Cats, dogs, women, children, kangaroos, everything. Everything needs a place where they feel comfortable, yet the world doesn't always provide one. In this story, a family notices a cat appears outside their home a lot. The cat is practically living right on the outskirts, and the family can see him from the inside. They already have a cat who isn't cat friendly, so adopting them themselves isn't an option. Though they're in a conundrum, they don't let it stop them from trying to help. 

They give the cat toys, food, and try to keep an eye on the cat at all times. They made a vet appointment for TNR, and they've made a makeshift shelter for him. He's living the best life he can at the moment, and they're working hard to get him adopted and get him a furrever home. They're on the waitlist for the rescue, and in 1-3 months they'll be able to get him in. It's absolutely precious and pawdorable to see this family really stress about a cat that they're under no obligation to take care of. It must be the holiday spirit, or they're really special hoomans. Read the full story below. 

Anyone who's lived in an apartment building knows that you're never really alone, even when you're in your own living room eating cold leftovers and pretending you don't hear your upstairs neighbor practicing tap-dance at 11 p.m.

Shared walls come with shared… everything. The footsteps, the arguments, the questionable cooking smells, the mysterious thuds that you promise you're going to stop wondering about. And then there are the windows that act as accidental stages into other people's lives, especially at night.

Ask any long-term renter and they'll tell you they didn't mean to see anything. No one sits down with their cup of coffee planning to witness a stranger doing yoga in nothing but socks, or someone passionately rehearsing a breakup speech to their houseplants. But the view is the view, and apartment windows have a way of turning everyday neighbors into recurring characters in a show you never subscribed to.

Maybe it's the couple who keeps breaking up and getting back together loud enough for the entire block to develop an opinion. Maybe it's the guy who owns one chair, one lamp, and a giant sword. Maybe it's your neighbor who talks to pigeons like they're coworkers.

Apartment life isn't glamorous, but it is never, ever boring.

We're all hankering for a good ol' time. A hit of nostalgia never hurt anyone, right? Unless it meant you went back to an ex, spiraled about the past, or something similar. But what could be triggering or harmful about cat memes? Nothing. The interwebs are a magical place where hoomans gather around and worship cat-astic cats. Cats are more famous online than in person it seems, with their timeless comedy. The place where memes were born, and where cats rule everything, what could be better. If you're hankering for nostalgia, get ready to scroll, giggle, and purr about these 25 cute kitties. 

These memes aren't just funny, they're comforting, nostalgic little digital kittens that remind us of simpler times when your biggest worry was deciding which cat gif to send in a group chat. They span the decades of internet culture, from the early 2000s jagged GIFs to today's perfectly looped high-def creations. So whether you're a seasoned meme historian or a newcomer curious about the classics, prepare to fall down the rabbit—or should we say cat hole—of feline hilarity. These 25 iconic cats remind us that no matter what's going on in life, there's always a meme out there ready to make you snort-laugh, hiss-terically meow, or simply smile.

It took two decades for the ambitious two-part film adaptation of the hit Broadway musical Wicked to make it to the big screen. Based on the novel by Gregory Maguire, which itself is inspired by L. Frank Baum's The Wizard of Oz, this prequel follows the ill-fated friendship between Elphaba and Galinda, who respectively grow up to become the Wicked Witch of the West and Glinda the Good. 

The first film, which was released in November of last year, followed these characters in their school days and included such memorable songs as "Popular" and "Defying Gravity." It was a hit both critically and commercially, ultimately earning a whopping 10 Academy Award nominations. That left some big red shoes for these witches to fill the second time around.

From a commercial standpoint, the conclusion to this epic tale, titled Wicked: For Good, has risen to the occasion, having opened to over $150 million at the domestic box office. However, unlike the first film, the sequel has proven to be far more divisive, having suffered from a decidedly mixed critical reception.

Some fans have noted that this reception was inevitable, as the second act of the stage musical has always been weaker than the first. Others believe it to be the product of overexposure given the omnipresence of Cynthia Erivo and Ariana Grande's meme-filled press tour and awards campaign. Both of these interpretations are compelling, but at the end of the day, the true culprit has more to do with the film itself.

There is an exhausting self-seriousness in the artistic approach to Wicked: For Good that indicates a fundamental misunderstanding of why people loved the stage musical in the first place. In this second half, director Jon M. Chu and his team, who also helmed the first film, seem more concerned with dressing this Wizard of Oz prequel up as prestige cinema in the hopes that it can win more Academy Awards rather than finding joy in the structurally flawed source material. The result is a movie musical with an identity crisis. Wicked: For Good aspires to be more like the critically acclaimed, Best Picture-winning Chicago when in reality, the blueprint should have been the unabashedly unpretentious, box office juggernaut that was Mamma Mia!

Dog people are simply the funniest fur loving hoomans. They think that only the soul of a dog can light up their lives, that only those boisterous barks will make their heart sing. That is until they meet the right cat and everything flips on its head in a matter of mere moments. Suddenly, cats are all they can think about, and they almost forget about any kind of canine attachment they once might have had.

Which is pretty much what happened when the Cat Distribution System delivered a cute, soaking wet kitten to one dog lover on the side of the road. It seems the CDS knew that with the passing of the pupper person's own dog and their resignation from their job, that they needed the love and light that only a kitten can bring and so benevolently bestowed this tiny fluffy gift upon this man. A wonderfully and almost surprisingly kind gesture from a system that is for the most part very kind and caring in itself. 

At this movie theater, employee expectations include more than just handing out popcorn buckets and scanning tickets — these workers were told to shovel snow!

Working at a movie theater these days is much less glamorous than in decades past. I don't know if you've been recently, but you don't really even need employees to get into the theater. They'll just scan your phone, since you probably got the tickets on an app, and from there, you seat yourself. Even if you show up without a ticket, you're supposed to buy it yourself on a kiosk. But they still haven't invented a robot that can make you a heaping bucket of warm popcorn for like $19, so at least the employees have that task to complete! Besides that, movie theater workers sweep up said popcorn from the floors after showings, keep the restrooms clean, and help customers if any issues arise. It's not glamorous, but it's not the worst job in the world, either. (I bet they also get to watch free movies, too, which would be a fun perk!)

At this theater, though, the boss overextended the range of employee tasks to include… shoveling snow in the parking lot. How bizarre! If the snow is that bad, there's no way that people are going to be driving to a movie anyway. They'll probably just sit home and watch Netflix on the couch — no need to brave icy roads if you've got perfectly good movies at home. But that didn't stop this boss from ordering employees to haul snow, which one employee did exhaustively. Good for him for getting both a workout and a huge paycheck, as well as making the boss look ridiculous.

The cat cuddle is possibly the most sought after form of feline affection in the cat-hooman relationship. It symbolizes a few things about the relationship and its status. Those things being that first your cat trusts you enough not to crush them or to do something to them that they would not enjoy. Second it means that your cat truly loves you, and third it shows that your cat actually views you are their pawrent.

It is all that any cat owner could ever want and it is one of the toughest things to make happen. As it does not only depend upon yourself but also the backstory of your catto. So for all the feline pawrents who have cat children at home who can barely stand to be petted, we made this list of cats cuddling wit their pawrents so that you can, at least for a moment live vicariously through the love that these sweethearts share.
