‘I don’t **** with thieves’: Mom cancels Christmas after catching her 6-year-old stealing $70 from her purse
When you’re a kid, the threat of being put on the naughty list is usually enough to make you be on your best behavior for that last month of the year. I wholeheartedly believed in the surveillance state of Santa and was a bit paranoid that any wrong move I made would result in me …

Top 10 Twitter Moments of the Year (2023)
Twitter memes come and go so quickly. We laugh and hoot and holler at a «Twitter main character» for approximately 48 hours and proceed to forget they ever existed. Well, I don’t want to forget!

People Share The Moments They Realized Their Friend Hated Them
Not all friendships are built on a good-faith foundation. You could be in a friendship with somebody for years just to realize that they have resented you virtually the whole time.

Everyone has a different idea of what it means to «live paycheck to paycheck.» It drives me crazy when I see posts from people making $200K a year, claiming that they still live paycheck to paycheck after completely filling up their 401Ks and spending $5000 in rent.

When you hear the word «meme,» what’s the first thing that pops into your head? I can almost guarantee you it’s not the hottest newest meme that’s just been reported on Know Your Meme today.

‘Career Coach’ Encourages Clients to Make Fake Degrees, Can’t Believe People Didn’t Cheat Through College
A wise inspirational quote once said, «Winners never cheat, and cheaters never win.» I learned that firsthand when I failed my US Government AP test in high school after not studying and looking up the test answers online for the entire semester.
