You could be the sweetest person in the world, but that won't stop someone from disliking you.

You can't control the perception of others.

You're not going to please everyone.

Most of us are just a paycheck or two away from homelessness.

Sorry to disappoint you, but you have only Redditor Ionlyventinthisacc, who asked the online community: "What is one bitter truth you know about life?"

"It's one thing..."

"Some people..."

Some people truly cannot be helped.

No matter how hard you try, no matter how much you care about them, no matter how good you are to them, some people just want to burn.

"Just because..."

Just because you've had a bunch of bad things happen to you, doesn't actually mean it's going to get any better, even if you try hard to be positive and focus on making yourself the best version of you possible. Sometimes the best people get screwed over the worst and it just stays that way. A lot of times there are ups and downs, but it's never guaranteed.

A false flag is defined by Webster's dictionary as a hostile act intentionally designed to "manipulate public perception, create false culpability, or justify retaliatory actions."

Folks, as you know, you don’t get to call anything a coincidence on the internet anymore—especially when a decades-old TV episode, a pause button, and one very loaded last name collide.

When Law & Order: Special Victims Unit debuted in 1999, no one was freeze-framing scenes looking for hidden meaning. Nearly three decades later, that’s exactly what viewers are doing, and one background detail from the show’s second-ever episode is suddenly under a microscope.
