If you’re working a salaried position, the question of whether or not to work overtime can be tricky to answer. If you’re working hourly, your willingness to work an extra shift is directly correlated with you getting paid more if you do so. Whether you say yes or no, a bargaining chip is at play. …

Drivers and non-drivers debate why people shame teenagers for not getting their license: ‘If public transportation was accessible, many people wouldn’t’
I got my driver’s license later in life. By that, I mean ten months after I turned 16. In the town I grew up in, that might as well have been later in life. I’ve never felt more social pressure to do something than get my driver’s license. Kids in my class were dumbfounded by …

Woman accuses mom of traumatizing her kids by serving them a weekly charcuterie board for dinner: ‘When I look back in Charcuterie Tuesdays, I see the gaslighting’
It’s no secret that we use the term «trauma» a little excessively these days. While it’s true that someone can be traumatized by seemingly innocuous things, the rate at which internet users publicly accuse strangers of traumatizing their kids is mind-boggling. If you’re a mom who works instead of staying home, you’re traumatizing your kid. …

Dude encourages everyone to stop working because their bosses don’t care about them: ‘Stop simping for your capitalist overlord who do not love you’
It’s very cool and popular to criticize capitalism, and I get it. It’s messed up beyond belief that so much of your life is spent working and stressing about whether you’ll be able to afford to be alive. The phrase «cost of living» can radicalize people because why does it cost so much money to …

‘BRING BACK LAPTOPS WITH DVD PLAYERS’: Millennials, Gen Xers, and Gen Zers share their most Boomer opinions
Baby boomers and old people in general can get a bad rap. They’re portrayed in memes as being stuck up, having an «I got mine» mindset, and embodying the worst of all Karen tendencies. It’s just part of nature for young people to resent and criticize their parents and grandparents generations. As long as there …

Airbnb host charges $1300 for a two night stay, gives guests laundry list of chores two hours before checkout: ‘Team hotel here’
Being an Airbnb hater is a big part of who I am and what I do. I distinctly recall being on a family vacation 10 years ago, waiting outside in freezing weather for over an hour for the owner of the apartment to give my family the key. The owner finally decided to show up …

Dude gets invited to a pool party, defies expectations by being the only attendee to swim: ‘I hope he knows he’s the only normal one there’
When you become an adult, you’re automatically expected to have less fun. It’s one of those cruel realities we all have to live with, and it’s just not fair. Why would I not want to ride the rides at the theme park just because I’m over the age of 22? Why must parties become boring …

Inconsiderate dude shuts down friend asking for emotional support, anoints himself the King of Boundaries: ‘Don’t be inconsistent and then expect me to play the fat friend’
I’m convinced that nobody except therapists likes «therapy speak.» If you don’t know what therapy speak is, maybe this will refresh your memory. «Hey! I’m so glad you reached out. I’m actually at capacity / helping someone else who’s in crisis / dealing with some personal stuff right now, and I don’t think I can …

Dude records Chipotle employee to get larger portions, gets criticized for being embodiment of the surveillance state: ‘They don’t get paid enough for this’
If you’ve been around the fast food block, you’ve probably heard the complaint that Chipotle doesn’t put enough meat in their bowls. I’ve never particularly had a problem with this: every time I’ve eaten Chipotle, it’s been so filling I didn’t need to eat again for at least another 8 hours. However, that doesn’t stop …

‘People my age act like youre a wizard if you have hobbies beyond Hulu’: Hobbyists share what hobbies people over 25 can do besides drinking and going to the gym
As you grow older, the hobbies that used to shape your life tend to fall away. This could be for money reasons (those oil paints aren’t going to pay for themselves), getting embarrassed (it’s not cute to be a 40-year-old open mic comedian in a Rust Belt city), or truly aging out of things (once …
