Photo of JPMorgan's New NYC Office Layout Gets Instantly Roasted For Its Dystopian Vibes—And The Memes Are On Point
Oct 29, 2025
Huge multinational bank JPMorgan just unveiled their glittering new headquarters in New York City, and if you're looking for an office layout straight out of a dystopian movie, you're in luck!
The headquarters, which is housed in a brand new skyscraper in Midtown Manhattan, has a rather unique layout inside.
On X, Dell Technologies Chairman and CEO Michael Dell shared an image of the $3 billion office with a note of congratulations, and it instantly got roasted.
Of course Dell would congratulate the design—it's likely all those gazillion monitors were made by his company.
But despite his and tons of other corporate leaders' enthusiasm, to any normal person this looks like one thing and one thing only: a corporate sweatshop.
Just row after row after row of computer monitors crammed next to each other so tightly it looks like there's probably a warden nearby who bloodies your knuckles if you so much as think of getting out of your seat.
Presumably, that's not the case: The new HQ also comes with amenities like a a gym, a "community hub," whatever that means, 24/7 food options and even a pub.
How exactly you access these amenities when you have to climb over all your coworkers and walk a 10K to even get out of the boiler room is anyone's guess.
@newspeakmedia Everyone please congratulate JP Morgan on their new corporate headquarters. And a special congratulations to the lucky employees that get to work at these desks.
Look at the way the one lone person in the photo is dwarfed by those rows and rows of monitors and desks. Doesn't seem like it would be worth the hike to go to the JPMorgan "community hub" to be honest!
And it's hard not to suspect that's part of the point, especially given the way corporations lined up to praise the design in their social media feeds.
There's really no way to interpret this design layout as anything other than an expectation of endless productivity at all costs, including each worker's well-being.
It's so on the nose for today's economic and working environment that it feels almost satirical, a perfect visualization of our era of wealth disparity, dystopian oligarchy, and absurd corporate expectations at the cost of workers' mental health.
And on X, people were feeling precisely that vibe: JPMorgan's new office layout quickly became a darkly comedic meme for all the wrong reasons.
Who knew the day would come when we'd long for the stultifying sameness of cubicles? At least you had some privacy and a divider or two between you and your annoying colleagues!
Anyway, JPMorgan's new gulag—sorry, headquarters—is housed in its new 60-story office building at 270 Park Avenue designed by architectural icon Norman Foster.
It's being billed as both an architectural and green engineering wonder, as an all-electric tower powered by hydroelectric technology, with a much smaller carbon footprint than most high-rise buildings.

Bride Calls Out Her Trump Loving Dad For Wearing His MAGA Hat During Wedding Speech
Oct 29, 2025
A woman's clip from her wedding video is going viral for her father's decision to put his political beliefs before her happiness on her wedding day. Asked to leave his politics at home for one day, the MAGA minion dad wasn't capable of keeping his promise to his daughter, his love for MAGA Republican President Donald Trump being more important.
Tagging it a late night find, the wedding is from several years ago, but Courtney Raspor—a stay-at-home mom of three and daycare provider—shares insights on dealing with going no contact with a narcissistic parent in her content. The wedding reception clip of her father's speech was a glimpse into why they're estranged.
She shared the clip on her TikTok and Instagram.
@courtneyraspor I used the “Libreral” font on this just out of spite. #narcissisticfather #maganarcissist #narcissisticparent #weddingfail #latenightfinds
The MAGA hat wasn't the only bad decision dad made during his speech.
Raspor shared another clip on Instagram in response to a comment about the numerous MAGA members and friends of Trump getting indicted for sex crimes against children.
Raspor replied with a video of her dad thanking the DJ, then saying he had music queued up and he'd take requests, followed by "I'll Make Love To You" playing as dad grinned then looked toward the bride.
@courtneyraspor Replying to @Joshua Renshaw Should we take a vote? Is this or the MAGA hat part of the speech worse? 😳 #maganarcissist #narcissisticfather #narcissisticparent #nocontactwithparent #estrangedadultchildren




A later email exchange with dad didn't improve matters.
@courtneyraspor But he’s NOT a narcissist 🙄 “Courtney why would you post this on the internet?” Because I’m done protecting him, I’m done hiding and pretending everything’s okay, I’m done allowing him to play the martyr and allowing him space to twist the narrative in his favor and paint himself the victim time and time again. It’s about time he faces the consequences of his own actions and words. #narcissisticparent #nocontact #nocontactwithparent #maganarcissist #narcissisticfather
People were disgusted by MAGA dad's behavior, and by dad himself.















Raspor shared she has since gone no contact with her father and is much happier because of it.

Democratic Senator Trolls Trump With Hilariously Petty Idea For What To Name Trump's Ballroom When He Leaves Office
Oct 29, 2025
Arizona Democratic Senator Ruben Gallego floated the idea to name the new White House ballroom after former President Barack Obama once President Donald Trump leaves office, pointing out it would incense the notoriously thin-skinned president.
Trump recently ordered the demolition of the entire East Wing to make way for a 90,000 square-foot ballroom that will dwarf the size of the White House itself, sparking alarm from historical preservationists and the public alike.
The pet project has garnered heavy criticism in light of the ongoing government shutdown and the announcement that families will not receive SNAP benefits as of November 1. The Trump administration has also declined to release contingency funds that would ensure families that rely on these payments don't go hungry.
When asked recently if he would name the ballroom after himself, Trump denied it:
"I don't have any plan to call it after myself. That was fake news. Probably going to call it the presidential ballroom or something like that. We haven't really thought about a name yet."
Responding to a question about whether he agrees with calls from Democrats, including former congressman Joe Walsh, to demolish the ballroom as soon as Trump leaves office, Gallego said:
"I think to really mess with him, just name it the Barack Obama Ballroom, and that will take care of half the problem."
He added:
"This is a distraction. First of all, he should not have done that. This is the People's House. Two, where is the president?"
"He's focusing on the ballroom, he's focusing on everything [else], but he's not focused on what's happening right now: inflation's still high, people can't buy what they need to buy, energy's still high ... This is a Marie Antoinette talking about 'Let them eat cake' while Americans are struggling right now."
"What I would like him to do is focus on this to make sure we can actually get costs down, people can actually make a good standard of living right now and pay what they need to survive instead of focusing on all these little projects."
You can hear what he said in the video below.
Many agreed that would certainly get under Trump's skin—and some even offered their own suggestions.
Considering how much Trump enjoys finding ways to attack Obama, there's no doubt renaming the ballroom would drive him up the wall.

People Break Down Absurd-Sounding Restaurant Complaints That Are Totally Valid
Oct 29, 2025
Anyone who has worked in the service industry has a million examples of times a customer had an absolutely ludicrous complaint.
Except sometimes, it turns out to be not so outrageous.
Reddit user forrestgumpisntreal asked:
"When was your 'Waiter! My steak is too juicy and my lobster is too buttery!' story a valid complaint?"
Cheers!
"When my wife and I got married, we took a month long honeymoon around the US. We're Australian and were doing it as cost effectively as possible due to the exchange rate - so we were driving between a lot of locations."
"On the advice of some American friends, I mentioned on all the hotel booking forms that it was our honeymoon thinking maybe we'd get a nicer room or something."
"Every. Single. Hotel gave us a bottle of wine or champagne."
"We're not big drinkers and most places we were only staying in overnight so we ended up with so much and felt like jerks for not finishing the bottles but we probably would've gotten DUIs if we hadn't cut ourselves off."

Embellished
"I got a new tattoo earlier today and specifically said I wanted just the outline and exactly like the stencil."
"Well, the artist decided to be nice and shade it and add some extra details. The tattoo looks wonderful and she didn't charge me extra for all the extra work she did, but I hate it."
"The shading she did was all wrong for the colors I eventually wanted for it and now the white parts are black and she did it before I even realized what she was doing."
"And even though she went above and beyond she never informed me that she was going to change anything and now I have to live with it."
"I cried before I was even completely out the door when I left."
~ Gazline42
K.I.S.S.
"I was once very sick and begged my now ex-boyfriend to get me Campbell chicken noodle soup. He decided I deserved good chicken soup and made a big pot of homemade soup with egg noodles and lots of veggies and big pieces of chicken."
"Which would have been great if I’d had a cold. I specifically wanted Campbell’s chicken noodle soup because I’d been throwing up for two days and needed the blandest, simplest food available. No way I could have kept his soup down."
"He couldn’t believe I wanted 'canned crap' over the 'real stuff' and basically accused me of being uncultured and low class."
"He never did understand that the problem wasn’t in the taste or how healthy it was; it was literally just what my stomach could and couldn’t hold."
~ Preposterous_punk
Plain Means Plain
"I went to a bar with a friend and ordered the tater tots. I ordered very explicitly, just the tots. the potato, nothing else. I have IBS and I basically never eat out anymore, ever, because if my food is contaminated, im in pain for days."
"She brings them out and they are covered with cheese. like, an egregious amount of cheese. and im like....bruh i cant eat these. and she goes 'i even asked him (the chef) for extra cheese!' and i was like 'i asked for no cheese.'
"I felt so bad. I was just like...I can't eat these. This is poison to me."
"looked/smelled good though.....which didn't make it better."
~ Revenge_of_the_User
Sweets
"My husband was the manager of a bakery that sold slices of cheesecake in all different flavors and tiramisu. At the end of the second day, they threw them all out and made fresh ones."
"So we had boxes of cheesecakes every single night for ten years."
"I have zero sweet tooth. Give me olives!
~ Sense_Difficult
The Scoop
"There's an ice cream place by me that's known for their 'large portions' which I did not know before I went there."
"So I go for a walk down there on a hot day and order a 'single' only to watch in horror as the single became at least 8 scoops with half pouring over the top of the cup. I was able to get a second cup and dump the towering scoops into it and both cups were still overflowing."
"I ate what I could and had to carry the rest of the melting ice cream home."

Less Is More
"Had a table of industry bartenders come in for brunch. My bartender tried to 'hook them up' by making super-strong margaritas."
"Table actually complained they were too strong and tasted gross, they just wanted a quality balanced drink."
~ HankMardoukas8286
Time Is Money
"Got this job as a 'runner' for a car dealership. The job was simple; they gave me a pre-owned car from the lot, and I took the money to the bank and dropped off car contracts to credit unions.
"The hourly pay was decent for the job, and I worked alone. The issue was that the person I replaced was promoted, and during my 'training', he informed me that the actual job probably takes an hour a day."
"He had somehow convinced them that it was an all-day affair. He lived less than a mile from the dealership and would just go home and smoke and sleep for 6+ hours a day."
"The moment the day's drive was over, I would be sent home and paid for just the hours I worked, no matter how many/few hours it took. So, in order to make a decent paycheck with enough hours, I had to fill 7 hours a day."
"I lived over an hour away and couldn't just go home. You'd think being paid to do nothing would be fun. I did it for a couple of years, but trying to fill those 7 hours a day was maddening."
~ Louiebox
Hydration
"I was 18 at the US Open in Pinehurst, and my dad kept ordering beers for me. After 4-5, I asked him to stop and get me some water, because it was Pinehurst in June.
~ jaw719
Bun Deficit
"I ordered a spicy chicken sandwich at Wendy's, and the piece of chicken was gigantic, like 3x as big as the bun.
~ Mattbl
Luxury
"My husband was a project architect for a fancy resort’s new spa building. They wanted him on-site full time during the build, so they put him up in one of their ski condos and he ate at their restaurants everyday. I would visit on the weekends, as we lived a couple of hours away (this was before kids)."
"I would arrive after work on Fridays, eager to go the restaurant and have filet mignon. After a couple of weeks of him being there, I arrived ready to go to dinner, and he said: 'Can we please just order a pizza? I’m so sick of lobster tails!'."
~ Sad-Low-733
Upgrade
"Reserved a rental car for my family. Wife, 2 toddlers, and all the required travel items. Was offered a new Camaro for a free upgrade. I pointed to my family and said 'can I fit everyone?' Back to the large sedan."
~ Refined_redneck
Toppings
"There was a local pizza place that was SUPER generous with toppings. We ordered one off the menu with no extras and saw them adding tons, and it looked great."
"The problem was that all the extra stuff made the pizza really soggy, especially in the middle. I could only really eat it with a fork and knife type deal for the first bites since it had no integrity."
~ CharmingSyrup2685
Gourmet
"Went to a family get-together the day after my wisdom teeth were removed. Someone was bringing me foods to eat like mac and cheese and mashed potatoes."
"Well, they got super fancy Mac with lots of cheese and nice crispy crust on top and these amazing mashed potatoes that had tons of stuff mixed in and chunks of potato."
"I couldn’t eat any of it without excruciating pain. I seriously just wanted the mushiest potatoes, gravy made from powders, and Kraft mac n cheese."
~ Star_Princess
Cookies
"A few years back, I went out and got some McDonald's for me and a friend. Two burgers, two fries, some nuggets to share."
"The girl at the drive-through window handed me the bag and winked. I looked inside and there's cookies in the bag and a note that said 'cookies for you! Enjoy! :)'."
"And also no nuggets or fries. So I had to go around to the speaker again and tell her she got my order wrong."
"She didn't wink at me the second time."

Mom Finds Ingenious Way To Get Son's Classmate To Stop Ripping Up Notes She Puts In His Lunchbox
Oct 28, 2025
The phrase "Hurt people hurt people" is popular for a reason!
When someone has a vital need that isn't being met, they often seek it out in unkind ways, because they know being unkind will get them one thing: attention.
Mom and Instagrammer Christina Stabile was in the habit of sending her son a packed lunch each day for school, including a napkin with a sweet, handwritten note.
She soon found out that her son hadn't been able to enjoy the notes, however, because another little boy took them away from him and ripped them up.
She admitted that she initially wanted to retaliate against her son's peer and maybe reach out to the teacher to see that he received discipline. But then she dug a little deeper and decided to do something different.
Stabile explained:
"I tapped into my wounded inner child. I could remember, you know, being upset anytime anybody ever got something that I perceived I didn't have."
So instead of trying to get the little boy in trouble, she wrote a note for her son, as usual—and included a second note for him to give to his classmate.
The little boy refused to take the first note, and even demanded that Stabile's son rip the note up, which he refused to do.
A few days later, her son shared the good news that the other little boy had finally accepted his special note, and there hadn't been an issue since.
You can watch the video here:
Fellow Instagrammers loved her approach.










It would be so easy for parents, at the end of a stressful day, to want discipline for their child's bully, to call their child's teacher or the principal and demand justice, or even direct their child on how to get revenge.
But by choosing kindness and leaning into what the child might actually need, this mom was able to make him feel more included and loved than he was back when he ripped up the notes.
