This is gaslighting....

I can't count how many times I've come across amount where nothing makes sense and it feels like it's by design. Like, politics... WHO THOUGHT THAT WAS A GOOD IDEA?!! There are pratfalls ready to take us all down at every turn and they are built into the everyday moments of life. Very cheeky God. Well played.

Redditor u/NiceCasualRedditGuy wanted to compare notes about what part of the ordinary we all feel is playing tricks on everyone by asking...


Why do snakes exist? Seriously, or alligators. Someone explain it truthfully. Because what science tells us, I believe is a farce. There had to better ways to catch and take down rodents and... humans. Who thought creepy beasts that could take you out with poison or a hundred teeth sounded like fun?

hacked computer virus GIFGiphy

Mcafee antivirus.

Integerity

Man that thing is a virus. makes a new computer feel like a 7 year old computer.

_welcome

be selfish...

The "Share" button on porn sites.

roastbeefandeggs

LOL!!! Has anyone ever pressed one besides that government guy a few years back? Can't remember his name. Oh and asking for a friend.

Hang Up

Robocalls about your car's extended warranty.

I started messing with the callers. Acting like I'm hard of hearing, speaking broken English, getting confused and having things repeated are great time wasters. Then they take me off the list because I'm an a-hole they don't want to deal with.

Deitaphobia

Bloodsuckers...

bart simpson mosquitoes GIFGiphy

Mosquitos. Wasn't even that long ago that a study proved that you could wipe them all out and it would not actually negatively impact ecosystems as much as previously thought and there is now a real effort to exterminate every last one of the bloodsucking fools.

Not the X

The ads that have the X inside the ad, so that when you click to close it, it takes you to the linked site.

Naweezy

Honestly wtf do they think will happen "I wasn't going to download your crappy mobile game with an ad that has nothing to do with gameplay but wow you tricked me into going to your website, I think I will give it a try."

SirLionMan1

See there? Now that is what I'm saying. How do any of those things add to the greater experience of life? At least in a positive way. It all seems unnecessary unless it's about driving people crazy. Let's see what else is keeping us up at night.

lacking wisdom...

I know they weren't meant to and once had a reason to exist, but by now: Wisdom teeth.

Satures

I don't have a single wisdom tooth. My dentist said he could count on one hand how many times he came across that.

Edit: This is now my top comment. I tried replying to everyone but I just couldn't do it. I'm sorry for every one that does have complications with their wisdom teeth.

There are some real horror stories in these comments. /u/Satures was completely right saying that they do mess with us now. I have to point out /u/anarrogantbastard because this person has 8 wisdom teeth and room for all of them. Can you believe that?! There was an unfortnate soul how had 4 sets (yes 4 sets) of wisdom teeth. And finally thank you /u/dcp0002 for the award.

Stay Awake

Bedbugs. They have no ecological benefit; and target only humans, almost exclusively just when the human hosts are sleeping, armed with natural anticoagulants and painkillers for enhanced, stealthy blood-sucking. Did I mention that bedbugs normally strike only in darkness, they're nearly invisible when young, they've mastered the art of hiding, they're immune to common insecticides, and they'll wait months (more than a year in some cases) without any nourishment while patiently waiting for feeding opportunities? Doomguy has never faced an enemy with such exceptional clandestine tactics.

Shrimp Instead...

Clamshell packaging. Forget that crap.

kunderthunt

It's doubly annoying when the item that you just bought is a pair of scissors.

Why would you package something in such a way that needs the actual same item to open it?

Luke_Nukem_2D

Poison

Cancer.

effabli

Seriously. It's not something foreign, like an animal or poorly made printers. It's the own body's system completely loosing control of cell management. Our tech and advancements in science has only touched what a cure might look like. Cancer is the only answer here.

RIP Mama.

Butt Issues

Single ply toilet paper.

Nofxnation

Might as well wipe your butt with your bare hand, TBH.

Snoo74401

And why are there so many buttons on cars and planes that do nothing? If there is a button that has no use, lose it, it's only a distraction. And while driving and FLYING... no one should never be distracted. I forgot about those two. Food for thought.

Dem Rep. Offers Brutally Accurate Reason For Why He Can't Understand 'The Mind Of Donald Trump'

Massachusetts Democratic Representative Seth Moulton made a fitting observation about President Donald Trump's mind after Trump gave a 20-minute address to the nation about his war in Iran on Wednesday evening.

Trump claimed “core strategic objectives are nearing completion” in the Iran war and vowed to strike Iran "extremely hard" over the next two to three weeks. He said that he would finish the job "very fast," without setting any timeline for ending the war. He pledged to "bring them [Iranians] back to the Stone Ages, where they belong.”

Racist Guy Caught On Video Tearing Through Iraqi Soccer Fans' Banner At Dallas Airport: 'Don't Come To America'

With the United States set to host the 2026 World Cup, a video out of Dallas Fort Worth International Airport is drawing attention for a very different reason: showing a man ripping apart an Iraqi soccer fan’s banner and telling them, “Don’t come to America.”

The video, posted on Instagram, shows a group of Iraqi sports fans standing in an airport holding a banner with Arabic and Spanish writing. The fans were there to support Iraq during their World Cup qualifier against Bolivia, which resulted in a 2-1 upset victory earlier that day.

Videos Of Squirrels Trying To 'Vape' Are Going Viral—And We Don't Know Whether To Laugh Or Cry

Some viral videos come along that leave us unsure whether we should laugh or cry. In the case of squirrels trying to vape, crying is unfortunately the more likely outcome.

E-cigarettes have dramatically increased in popularity in recent years and are often even portrayed as a cool accessory on social media. Unfortunately, disposable, one-time-use e-cigarettes have been made affordable and easily accessible, and instead of properly disposing of them, people often leave them on the ground like cigarette butts.
