Saw this elsewhere but felt strongly that it truly belongs here.

We were eating lunch in a café and he asked me to show him my phone, nothing out of the usual he checks it sometimes. I was pretty chill about my gc too I mean there wasn't anything bad happening there only my friend and I discussing about whether or not I should download gta vice city on my laptop. He js scrolled through telegram and when he handed it back I was shocked. He DELETED THE ENTIRE 6 YEAR HISTORY OF FRIENDSHIP OF ME AND MY 2 BEST FRIENDS. I mean y'all know that there's always that one legendary group chat with ur friends and that was MINE. And when I asked him why he did it he js asked me "why are you using bad words?" LIKE WTF!?!? The amount of strength it took me to not start arguing is unfathomable, just because my religion doesn't allow me to be rude to my parents. I mean it might not sound that bad for some people but I am 17 so he basically deleted a little over 1/3 of my entire life when the other 2/3 are when I barely could comprehend anything. The only good thing is that I can get an offline copy of the gc through my friends, but it'll suck so much dude.

EDIT: my religion does not prohibit me from arguing with my parents, it only says not to be rude with them. The amount of people who ask about, I'm sorry I can't answer to all of you. And also turns out I can only export the chat from my friend's side to get an offline copy of the whole gc

EDIT NUMBER 2: yes I'd sometimes scroll back to find something to laugh about with my friends when we were corny or did something funny or the memes that we sent each other and yes it was precious to me

To go with whatever tank top he chooses that day.

How is this fair ? Bay area.

Just saw the new Spiderman in theaters.

A baby starts crying/cooing/babbling very loudly about 20 minutes in. Goes for about 10 straight minutes before the parent takes them out.

Comes back a few minutes later, baby starts again. Again goes on for a couple minutes. Again parent takes them out, comes back, and repeat.

And repeat. And repeat.

This went on pretty much the entire movie (and I swear to god this baby somehow instinctively chose every single goddamn quiet/heartfelt scene to start yowling again 😭😂).

I get that babies are gonna baby. And I have sympathy for parents who wanna get out of the house and everything. But… maybe just stay with your baby in the lobby if they obviously aren’t gonna keep quiet.

*I didn’t complain to management because it was a tiny non-chain neighborhood theater about an hour away from me that I like to support sometimes. It’s got 1 screen and tickets are like $5.

It has a clip for a reason. Your sound sucks because you're not using the mic correctly. Also, it's distracting AF.

I KNOW y'all hate redundant red circles. That is why I deliberately used them. Get with the program.

If only the manufacturer included some type of manual...

Pegasus Airlines, August 1, 2026, Istanbul - Frankfurt.

The toy gun did not have an orange tip and looked very realistic from a couple of rows away.

We spoke to a flight attendant about it and he spoke with the passenger, who took it down, only to put it back in the same spot almost immediately. Spoke again to the flight attendant who shrugged and said, “It’s just a toy.”

After arriving in Frankfurt I saw the family in the terminal on the way to passport control. The kid had the toy gun in his hand and was waving it around enthusiastically. I told the father that it is a bad idea to let him have that toy out in the airport. The father just said, “eh, it’s fine.”

I am a single mom and low income, as such travel is generally too expensive. So when my teen as invited on a tirp abroad with school and he agreed to earn half the money it cost, I was thrilled for him to go and see the world. I only asked that he send me at least one photo every day so I could experience the world vicariously.
These are the 3 he sent me so far:

1. Food on the air plane
2. A dog on a leash
3. A duck

Please note these are everyday average things to see here at home. I think my child is possibly broken….

lol.

UPDATE: thanks for every comment. I learned lots and have a different perspective (actually many). You guys have helped me pass the time and miss him a bit less. I appreciate you all. And, for clarification: I’m not really mad and would never chastise him over his choice of pics, I think they are adorable and funny. I may make a request for a specific type of pic with him in front of a historical or important scenery but mostly just say “cool” or “nice!” In response. I just want him to have fun and be the sweet, kind, smart kid he is already.

Second update: the pictures I know you have all been waiting for. 😆 I will post in comments.

I just want to enjoy the outdoors man…

The pictures were sent by the cleaners after we requested photos of "the state we left it in"

The messages she said:

"The trash was not thrown it was full, there was a pan full of used oil. Food stuck all over the table runner and in the kid bedroom upstairs there was foil with a burnt side with substance. My cleaner charged me an extra $150 due to the sever dirtiness.

If you took pictures before you left please share because what i walked into was very upsetting and it needs to be cleaned very thoroughly due to the used foil with substance. I have families and children that stay here."

"The trash was clearly not disposed. The table runner had food stuck all in it. That was thrown away. The room had that very strange foil. No one has ever left my home in those state and it is not the cleaning service job to dispose of oil. You could have reached out you did not. The living room was disgusting with crumbs all over the floor. I’ve never had my house left in such a terrible condition. This is all she provided but I myself stopped by and visibly saw the mess. If you have proof you didn’t leave it that way then please send pictures."

In fairness to her, we did leave a pot of oil. We didnt want to dispose of that on the property or down the drain, but thats on us. We disposed of the other garbage bags and left them outside, we forgot the one final one in the trash. The rest of the dishes were done, the towels left out and piled like requested, we spent plenty of time cleaning.

Then the "drug thing". The couple in that room said they never even saw what was left, but the owner is essentially saying theres left over meth, which is insane. I can guarantee our friends didnt casually smoke meth in their room.

Are we being absurd not entertaining this? Has anyone else dealt with this after renting a BNB. We were there for two days.

Update: after responding with the candy wrapper and AI trashcan, the lady dropped it and said she'll pay the fee, considering the matter done. Will likely report this to AirBnB anyhow. Thank you all for pointing that out because it's definitely something we missed, not looking too closely while we're still on vacation. We were more blown away at the language and accusations made.

And for everyone telling us AirBnB sucks, we know. But we have a big group get together every summer and there arent many other options than can host 8-12 people.

We'll certainly take significantly more precautions going forward, but to this point we had a pretty good track record with BnBs and our hosts.

12 year old son said he was getting a popsicle last night out of the deep freeze vertical freezer in the garage. Wife yelled down to him make sure the door closes tight. He said ok. I got a text at 9am with some pics this morning with her saying it was open all night…

I’ve had this mouse for years, I know, old model, but come on

Lifted trucks probably shouldn't be anywhere near dense parking lots.

Edit: A lot of people are skeptical of whether this is AI/staged, or ask why the lady didn't back off the car. This is in a dense parking lot with cars that have dashcams/ EV sentry mode everywhere. Also her truck was in 2 wheel drive, you can see the back right tire spinning as she tries to reverse off the car. Her truck is stuck. She probably has an open differential and can't back off the car. She may have a 4wd mode, but she didn't use it in the heat of the moment.

I am so tired of eBay. I occasionally sell cards and other things on here. Half the time I run auctions, the buyer asks to cancel the order. Too bad buddy, if you bid on something you are committing to purchasing that item. You can’t have your cake and eat it too. I am sick and tired of these people. To make matters worse, eBay usually sides with them and makes you re-list the product with zero consequences to the buyer. They need to put a better system in place for their auctions. This has happened to me at least 10 times, and I have lost thousands of dollars with these scumbag scammers not paying for auctions they win.

And before you say, oh you should just use buy it now. I do that as well but it takes way longer to get the item sold and sometimes I need the money sooner rather than later.

Edit: I have been getting accused of being a scalper/flipper in the comments by a bunch of people. I have had my card collection for years, this specific card I purchased last year because I thought it was cool and i genuinely enjoyed it. I don’t understand how selling my collection and wanting to move on makes me a scalper? Some people are so out of touch and it’s the main reason I am getting out of this hobby. I guess selling on eBay instantly makes you a scalper! ✌🏼

We live in a town with a lot of seniors and typically thier driving is annoying but this takes the cake. Just cruising down a major highway

The lady clarified she has been paying rent & security deposit upfront, but the Owner isn't countersigning the lease. The owner leaves her on seen when she messages. The owner doesn't deny the lady from entering the rental home. Also there's repairs that need to be done urgently but the owner keeps leaving her on seen.

Triplets were behind me and a rouge in front of me started chiming in. Parents were doing their best. No one was actually upset. I’d whine too if I had to sit in these seats another hour.

EDIT: Rogue one (I cannot spell). And just to reiterate, no one was upset. Kids will be kids and the parents were doing their best. This video is just for laughs (including my face).

At Home Depot today - why on earth did someone think this was ok in the first place?!
