New Cyanide and Happiness Comic

The internet has generated a huge amount of laughs from cats and FAILS. And we all out of cats.

This person would've been in huge trouble if their boss hadn't signed 2 little letters on a piece of paper! 

The longer you're in the workforce, the more you learn to CYA. Always document things in writing, especially if it's something you strongly disagree with. That way, when your boss gets upset that you did or didn't do something, you can point them to the email you sent them, or the Slack message you sent, complete with time stamps. 

Not to mention that just the phrase "Can you send me that in writing?" is enough to stop most managers in their tracks. It begs the question, "Why do you need that in writing?" and the answer is, well, it's probably because that manager is requesting something so dim-witted that it needs recording. No one wants to look uninformed in the workplace, especially not when it's properly recorded by a diligent employee. 

This boss made a giant mistake, and lost his job over placing his initials on the wrong thing. It's a tough lesson for him to learn, but it was a very costly mistake that could've been easily avoided if he wasn't so full of hubris. 

Next, read about the scorned stay-at-home mom whose husband didn't invite her to a work event: 'I ran into the CEO's wife... she confirmed she was there.'

If you've ever looked at moving away from your hometown family, you'll hear a lot from your relatives about how it's going to be harder living somewhere away from them and without the "family support system." Those who are of an age where they might be considering having children will hear a lot of this. Particularly from expectant would-be grandparents who don't want their grandchildren growing up somewhere away from them.

While this might seem like a scam to keep you nearby, they have a legitimate point. It really is a lot harder when you're living somewhere without close family nearby, and it's important to remember here that as soon as kids enter the picture, the phrase "family support system" really means one thing: free child care.



(Story continues below)

This is something people tend to take for granted when they have it. Like this older sister did in a story shared by her younger sister to this popular online community. See, it's really hard to convince people to look after your children, even if they are of your own flesh and family.

Just one bad neighbor can easily spoil your living situation. Just ask this dude, whose neighbor not only damaged his property, but is trying to get him to pay for it!

This guy has a koi pond, a lovely addition to any home. I love to see those giant oversized fish peacefully swimming around. The orange, white, or black koi fish often swim up to see anyone who walks by in order to get some fish food. Having koi fish is a way bigger responsibility than being a goldfish owner. As this guy shares, some of his fish cost up to $1,000 per fish! That's more than some fancy dog breeds cost, and this guy has numerous fish swimming around in his backyard. 

He now finds himself in quite a predicament. His young neighbor climbed over the fence, tried to feed the fish, and ended up falling into the pond himself. Some places require owners to have a fence around their pools, but does the same apply to a koi pond? Well, this guy is going to find out, because those expensive fish were harmed by this kid's actions. The child is lucky he wasn't harmed, but his mom's request for money is infuriating for this homeowner. Not only were his koi fish taken from him, but now he's expected to pay medical bills? Let's hope that this guy gets a good lawyer who can protect him from this Mom's outlandish demands. 

Next, read about the car owners who had some absurd issues going on, like one person who had "put 3-4 CASES of oil in the motor" before deciding to bring the vehicle to the shop. 

Employees always know when their bosses need them more than the other way around. In this instance, we have a country club employee whose hours were recently cut in an effort to save on overall costs. However, he knew that a busy workday was coming up and that he would likely be asked to come in during the hours he used to work…

This story serves as yet another example of an occasion when bosses make rash decisions to save money while not considering the practicality of the situation long-term. A good manager is able to strike a balance between what is immediately necessary and what will be crucial down the road. This manager certainly does not fit that description…

Most people's little hobbies do not support nearly the entire family. This entrepreneur has been consumed by the small business he started, which he has been trying to grow for the past five years. There have been a few hiccups along the way that have made balancing work with his family life especially difficult, so we can understand the feelings of both him and his wife on some level. However, when his wife belittled her husband and called his business a small hobby when that's what has been bankrolling their lifestyle for the past several years, that was a step too far.

Keep scrolling below for to see how this toxic relationship managed to get more messy!

Taxes are a wild concept when you really think about it. It's basically a yearly subscription fee for simply existing in your own country. And if you forget to renew it? Immediate jail. The government already takes money out of your paycheck, and apparently they know exactly how much we make and how much we owe, so why do we have to do the math all over again? And if you mess up the math that they already know the answers to… again, jail. If you're a W-2 employee, tax season might be a happy time of year because you could get a refund check and a little serotonin boost. But if you're a freelancer or 1099 worker, RIP. I'm a freelancer, so tax season isn't about refunds; it's about procrastinating until the very last second before I have to send the IRS a check on the size of a small used car. Whether you're in denial or knee-deep in receipts and panic, these memes are for everyone out there who still hasn't filed. Solidarity.

If you were ever part of the fandom life, you know that it can be an all-consuming community, even more so when that fandom is all about dedicating yourself to a fictional world. The media that you've become infatuated with infiltrates your brain. The story you've become immersed in feels like real life. The characters you've fallen in love with feel like family. You make connections with your story and the characters, and sometimes you'll create new theories between characters just because they're beloved to you.

Some people take these obsessions and make amazing things from them. Fan fictions that are thousands of words long fill the internet, and fan art makes its way through the ranks of the fandom. These works could enrichen the story in ways the original creator could never even dream of, or could even reach the creator and influence them to change the story completely. Where things get tricky is when you let this fascination affect your day-to-day functionality. One woman had a problem with this when her sister insisted that she name her newborn children after characters from Bridgerton. When the sister would not let it go, this woman had to take drastic measures.

When that check engine light flashes on, it's time to take your car to the shop once again. I mean, you can put it off for a week or 6 months as some drivers do, but the longer you wait, the worse off your car is going to be. Sometimes you just need an oil change, or maybe your tire pressure is uneven. You know it's going to cost you a big chunk of cash… but waiting until your car is smoking on the side of the road to take it into the shop is just going to cost you more. 

Some people simply refuse to let other people touch their cars, either because they want to save money, they think they're a "car person," or they don't trust other people with it. They crack their knuckles, roll up their sleeves, and… pour water straight on the motor. Or they pour oil into the gas tank. Or they overfill their tires to the max. There are plenty of ways you can turn a quick fix into a bricked car, and the people below did just that before finally turning the job over to a qualified mechanic. 

Next, read about these folks who are red-faced with embarrassment after having some awkward work encounters, like one worker who "accidentally called my boss 'Mom'."

In the quest to outdo the laws of physics, the corporate world has made a groundbreaking discovery: employees are not actually off when they're "off." It seems companies have established their own version of Newton's laws, but with a twist. Instead of gravity pulling objects towards each other, corporate gravity pulls employees towards their email inboxes, no matter where they are in the universe.

In this bizarre new physics, the laws of motion no longer apply. Objects (employees) can be in two places at once: on vacation and simultaneously checking work emails. This phenomenon is made possible by the invention of the "digital leash," a device so powerful it can stretch across continents and time zones, ensuring that no employee truly escapes.

It's genuinely starting to feel like the corporate world has a secret competition for the dumbest policy we can make people comply with and believe it makes sense. The award? A herd dog-shaped trophy, symbolizing the art of making employees—ahem, sheep—run back to their designated place without thinking twice. After all, who needs critical thinking when you have rules that defy logic?

Take, for instance, the brilliant idea of confining employees to a break room during their actual breaks. It's not a break if you can't leave, right? It's like telling a dog to stay in the yard but never letting it off the leash, it's still in the yard, but not exactly enjoying the freedom of leisure time. Imagine if we applied this principle to other areas of life: "You can go on vacation, but don't leave the hotel room until your time is up." Sounds like a blast.

Exaggerating on your resume almost always backfires. Sure, you might be having trouble in your job search. You might even be trying to switch careers. Perhaps you spent hours on end rage-applying to jobs on LinkedIn, only to hear absolutely nothing in return.

Still, there are far better solutions and experiments worth trying in your search than embellishing your resume or, in this case, fully fabricating work experience that didn't actually exist. This job candidate learned that lesson the hard way. After receiving a callback interview for a career in which they had next to no experience, they were caught in a lie over a phone interview only a minute after the call began. Keep scrolling below to see how the candidate went from thinking they were a mastermind to thinking they were the most foolish person on the planet!

Being close with your family can be really special. You've got a whole squad of people who will love you conditionally, stand by you no matter what, and accept you for who you are. They know you better than anyone because you share parts of yourself with them. If you have a big family, you've got built-in best friends in your siblings and your cousins, and family reunions are never a boring event if you guys get up to your regular antics. And hey, if you ever decide to have kids, you've got built-in childcare free of charge. What a life!

Being close with your family does mean that they feel like they have permission to tell you the best way to live your life. They've lived through the part you're reaching already, and since they're a part of you, they surely know what's best for you and what's best for the family as a whole. When your family starts telling you that the way you're living your life is wrong, when you're sure you know what's best for you, then it becomes a problem. One woman and her husband were facing that issue when their family kept telling them what to name their newborn baby, so they decided to prank them to give them a taste of their own medicine.

We all have haters. Even if you try to live your life as a saint, spreading nothing but kindness wherever you go, there is always going to be someone who will have a problem with your existence. Yes, it's difficult to go through life without attaining a single hater, and so when that hater reveals themselves to you, it's best to think of it as a lifetime achievement. You must be doing something that's significant enough if someone else took the time to have an opinion on it. Be proud that you're doing something, at least!

When we get a hater and they decide to make their problems a problem for you, that's where it gets tricky. One of the worst kinds of haters is a jealous one because a jealous person will do some outlandish things to see if they can get what they do not have. One girl faced that issue when her mom told the family that she would be changing her name to the same name that her daughter has. Sharing a name with your mom is one thing if it's a family legacy, but if your mom is taking your name to satisfy some itch inside of her? Now, that's a problem. See how this girl deals with it.

You rarely see revenge and generosity go hand-in-hand, but this disgruntled employee found a way to get back at his greedy ex-CEO, while also donating to the poor. 

Clothes are 100% recyclable. I'm a big supporter of thrift shopping for clothes or finding old gems in the donation bin. Just because someone wore a shirt or a hoodie before you did doesn't mean it's soiled forever! A lot of clothing has a whole new life after it leaves its original owner. Donated clothes can be a lifeline for desperate people in need, literally putting a shirt on their backs and helping clothe their new outlook on life. Funnily enough, the guy in this next story was excited to do his part to help the local homeless population after he was wrongfully terminated and denied his bonus. Instead of egging his boss's luxury car or slandering his ex-company on Linkedin, he decided to passively besmirch them by donating all of his company merch to the homeless shelter outside his office. 

With a recognizable logo like theirs, the executives were reminded daily who was representing their company on the streets. 

If you're upset with your spouse, tattling to the boss is only going to make things worse. Instead of discussing things civilly with just the two of you, now there's a third person involved, and it's the guy who controls your finances! You'd think that this stay-at-home mom would value her husband's job a little more, but she also seems pretty upset that he didn't bring her along to a work party. 

As this woman explains, her husband purposefully excluded her from a work event where other spouses were invited. That must sting, and it doesn't bode well for their relationship. If you resent your spouse and are embarrassed to have them around, it shows. People can tell! Their whole story here is just a piece of the bigger issues in their relationship, and the way this woman escalated things is going to add fuel to the fire.

Most people do not want to hear from the boss who fired them, especially if it's for help. If you were let go, the only reason why your former employer should be contacting you is to help you get a new opportunity, not the other way around. Unfortunately, there seem to be far too many narcissists out there with zero self-awareness, and they believe it is well within their right to initiate contact with the people they did wrong. 

Keep scrolling below for this tale of a former employee who received an email about what their ex-boss calls a brand new "alumni referral program!"

Picture this. You're planning your next vacation, and you go on a flight website to buy your plane tickets. You put in all the necessary details, and find a great flight for an extremely cheap price, awesome. You click on it, then you learn that the price was only for one way, so it's actually double the price. Okay, still not bad, quite a decent price, so you keep going with the process. You then find out that if you plan on bringing any luggage, you have to add even more money to each ticket. Hmm, this is starting to get a bit pricey, but let's keep going. You get to the seating chart, and there you realise that if you actually want a seat, that would cost you more money as well, and if you want two adjacent seats for you and your partner, well, you get where we're going with this…

When you finally reach check out and the taxes get added up, you come to terms with the idea of a staycation, because you have no desire to sell a kidney just so you could get on this one plane.

When you're burning the candle at both ends and navigating a really busy period at work, burnout is highly likely, and it really creeps up on you. You might not even realize it and think you are keeping up with things, but the moment you have a chance to stop and take a breath—usually at the end of a busy period or major project, even a three-day weekend or short vacation—the burnout hits you like a truck, leaving you reeling and wondering what the heck just happened. 

When you pile a toxic workplace on top of everything else burnout is pretty much inevitable. The problem is that as soon as you start experiencing it and try and address it with your superiors you're just going to be met with resistance, then ostracization while they quiet fire you and wait for you to quit—or cut you loose outright.

These places take burnout as a given and as a betrayal, and the moment you're gone your name is going to be dirt, and all your efforts will be forgotten and attributed to others who "remain loyal."

This worker was experiencing extreme burnout, which, in the ensuing unraveling, caused their boss to make the outlandish claim that they were "sabotaging" the company.

It's deeply satisfying to watch as a company where you once ran things goes down without your presence! 

Look, I know that a lot of employees feel like they're the backbone of their company. They take on extra workloads, spending their early mornings and late nights glued to their office chairs. They learn to fill in the gaps of the mistakes their bosses make, which saves the company time and money. This type of employee is often the first one in the office in the morning, setting up the office for success, and yet they're often both overworked and unappreciated. As you can imagine, this isn't the kind of work environment that people want to stay in long-term. They'll get their experience, then spruce up that resume and head for the door. 

Next, read about some people whose wedding days went totally off the rails, like one person who shared that their cousin's wedding was a "bring your own food" type of event. 

With the invention of peer-to-peer payment apps, settling up with people has never been easier. You never have to worry about getting someone to pay you back for dinner when you can just request the money you need from them. Crowdsourcing has become a piece of cake. It even makes the gig economy so much easier to manage. Babysitters, drag performers, and odd-job truthers unite worldwide over these new apps (and sometimes you can get away with staying tax-free).

Of course, with most good things, there are some drawbacks. We all have that one friend who doesn't understand the concept of paying it forward and will take their payment app privileges for granted by requesting you for $0.46 for a sip of their coffee. Then again, this friend has always existed. Even the invention of new-age technology could never make these tendencies absolute. One woman told a story about how her friend asked her to pay her fare for a dinner that she didn't even attend. You may read through and conclude that this woman is ultimately a flake and that friend was right to charge her, or you might take her side. Scroll through to see where you fall.

When it comes to exercise classes, the competition is real. It almost takes you back to middle school when people cared who scored a goal in P.E. class (it was never me). While many of us non-athletic folk outgrow that competitive nature when it comes to exercising, there are some fully grown adults who miss that unnecessarily competitive spirit. These are people who are not athletic enough to be professionals, but their exercise regimen is one of the few parts of their lives that provides them with real meaning.

This usually manifests itself in exercise classes wherein they rank the people taking the class in the most obnoxious way that is more humiliating than motivating for regular people like us. However, in this instance, we have an entitled yoga lady whose competitive nature came through before the class even began.

Trampolines are all fun and games until they catch a gust of wind and go fully rogue and tear through your neighborhood. One minute it's a backyard toy and the next, it's a flying wrecking ball. We've probably all seen a video edit or two with a trampoline majestically flying through the air. (Or is that just a midwest thing?)

Anywho, that's exactly what happened when this neighbor's trampoline went airborne during a storm and caused thousands of dollars in damage to their neighbor's decorative fence, insulated garage door, and newly built barn. But when the trampoline owner showed up (very unwillingly), he looked annoyed, like he was the one inconvenienced by not properly securing his trampoline to the ground. He tried to argue by saying this incident was an "act of God." But unfortunately for him, the trampoline landed in the yard of a real-life attorney. Lesson learned: if you're going to launch your trampoline into someone's property, maybe don't pick a lawyer's.

The job search can get discouraging, to say the least. Creating 100+ versions of your resume and signing up for 12 million Workday accounts, all the while knowing you won't hear back from most of your prospects. If they do reply, half of them will be an automated message where they probably misspelled your last name. How do I know? Less than a year ago, that's where I was. Gathering references from folks who can attest to your abilities is easy, but sometimes, you realize you can never truly trust them—even if they're a relative.

The job seeker who posted this next story explains that he was looking for a job at a specific company and put his sister-in-law down as a reference. Little did he know, she would give him the worst non-recommendation known to man, and he'd have 100% access to it and read it. He has no idea what's going on, and to be honest, neither do I. What's her problem? Scroll to read.

HOAs are the bane of any homeowner's existence, but the resident in this next tale was wrought with grievances from her HOA-obsessed Karenish neighbor, who was apparently not a fan of yoga. 

I happen to live in a community with an HOA and, when I first moved here, it was run by residents who were Mom-and-Popped into power, genuinely caring for the community and keeping costs low. They maintained the pool, took care of the grills, and kept the landscaping nice, so I was happy to fork over some cash every month to keep that going. However, time went on and they grew old, ready to pass the torch to the next HOA leaders who, unfortunately, were a giant corpo property management company. Within a few months, everything had fallen into disrepair, they raised HOA dues by $300/month, and they became completely out of touch with the property. Now I know what it's like to live under the thumb of an idiocracy. 

The HOA Karen, in this next story started taking pictures of her neighbor doing yoga on her balcony, hoping to ban her 'Eastern religious' practices and save the family neighborhood from her standard workout garb….

The invention of the situationship seems to be the downfall of our society as we know it. Sure, forms of the same "low-maintenance," anxiety-inducing relationship status have existed since the dawn of time, but it feels especially bleak that we've decided to put a name to it. Hasn't the wise mentor type in every dystopian story told us that giving it a name gives it power? Have we truly learned nothing?! Ugh. Where was I? Ah, yes. Situationship. 

A situationship is that sort of thing when you and the person you're seeing won't commit to each other or put a label on it, but you're definitely more than just friends. For some people, maybe this works for them. But 9 times out of 10, one person usually wants to change the relationship status, but they're bending to the will of the other person in fear that they'd lose them. Devastating and life-altering, to say the least.

One woman felt that the status of her decade-long relationship was never going to change, so she came to the internet for help. Do you think there's still something salvageable here, or is it just as simple as her partner is just not that into her?

Group projects in the workplace are almost as bad as group projects back in the academic days. The difference between the two? You get paid to do one of them, and you pay someone else to let you do the other one. Also, getting one bad grade in science class isn't the same as messing up a project at the office.

If you play your cards completely wrong, you might be walking out the door at 5 PM, and your boss will tell you not to bother coming in the next day, or ever. If the project hiccup is not your fault, though, but your groupmate insists that it is to your boss, you've got to cover for yourself. Many coworkers will do whatever they can to get a leg up on you, and that includes throwing you under the bus for a mistake they made. Sounds insane, but it happens every day. Scroll to read what happens to an employee who gets blamed for a mistake they didn't make.

Having a job in this current job market is like finding a pot of gold, but it's not really yours, and you're just holding onto it until somebody decides to steal it from you. No, I'm not talking about leprechauns… I'm talking about the higher-ups who are always patiently waiting to pull the rug out from underneath your feet and knock you down to zero. If it's not the higher-ups trying to get you out, it's always somebody.

Even when you realize your job is protected, what point is there if you're living in your own personal Hades realm? Well, for one: If you stick it out long enough, you'll qualify for the pension you've worked hard toward. Also, you'll lose just a smidge of your dignity if you decide to quit because not one, not two, but three executives decide to scream at and berate you because they can't terminate you themselves. That's the employee's case in this next story, and they refuse to quit just because three big, bad bosses told them to do so. Scroll to read.

Having loyalty to one company might seem like a good idea, but there are plenty of reasons why an employee should always keep their resume fresh. It's because companies aren't exactly loyal to their workers these days, and many people can be let go at any moment, for any reason. You could spend decades working somewhere, giving your best effort every day, bringing in thousands of dollars throughout your tenure. But the moment management changes, or someone decides that employee is costing the company too much, that worker can kiss their job goodbye. 

Just ask this dude, who was nearly ousted from his job before receiving a pension. This is unfortunately common, too. When the employee is nearing retirement age, the workplace might conveniently discover a reason to fire them. Wow, what a coincidence! It's a scummy thing for a workplace to do, but if there's no legal reason why they can't get away with it, that company can fire the worker and get away with it. 

Next, this single mom got into a dispute with her sister after her daughter babysat and ate a piece of expensive cake: "[I] made it clear I'm not giving her any money." 

Imagine saving your hard-earned money for months so that you can come to New York City and see a Broadway show, only for a random stranger to ruin the whole experience for you. 

Here's the deal: Broadway shows are more expensive than ever, yet theater etiquette seems to have gone down the drain. People are taking their shoes off, bringing in their own snacks, talking to their friends, and don't get me started on all the texting. It's one thing for this to happen in a movie theater (and even that is annoying), but it's quite another when you're at a live show. What's the point in spending so much money on a special experience if you're just going to treat the environment as if it's your living room?

Imagine walking into work one morning, coffee in hand, ready to tackle the day like a proper adult. But then you realize something is off—the air feels weird, the energy is chaotic, and suddenly it's like you've stepped into a cursed mashup of Freaky Friday and Big. Your coworkers aren't acting like professionals anymore; they're behaving like emotionally unstable kindergarteners trapped in adult bodies. One 24-year-old experienced exactly this bizarre sorcery firsthand when her birthday party plans became the ultimate playground drama.

She did everything right. Planned a party with her boyfriend, invited her close work friends discreetly via private messages, and assumed all was well. But magic struck when her 35-year-old coworker overheard some chatter and, in true kindergarten fashion, decided this was the emotional equivalent of being left out of the sandbox. Instead of handling it like an adult or, you know, minding her own business, she devolved into full-on toddler mode. 

There are some bizarre rules that will come into effect and be treated like a given practice simply because it's too convenient for management to do anything about it. An example of this is a member of staff who is required to be on-site from the opening until the closing of said site. Hiring two people to fill that requirement becomes "too expensive" quite quickly for the bean counters at the top, so they'll just demand that a single person be present the entire time. This is all too common and might be the keyholder of a retail operation or restaurant, or a site manager, or—in the case of this story—the shop's bookkeeper. 

The bookkeeper was required to work 18-hour shifts and be present from the opening until the closing of the home improvement store where they worked. If that sounds crazy to, well, you it's because it is.

We all have that one financial choice we made that haunts us forever… and usually, there's nothing to be done about it. You're just left with a smaller amount of cash in your bank account and sadness in your heart. 

In a workplace setting, a costly mistake can put your job on the line. However, some people consider their biggest financial mistakes to be going to college for the wrong major, or investing time in a relationship that didn't work out. It's all about the timing of things… just tell that to the people who sold their properties for too little money, only to watch their (former) property value skyrocket a year or two later! Check out a bunch of interesting things that people consider to be their biggest and most expensive mistakes down below. 

Next, read about the 14-year-old stepsisters who can't agree on a basement renovation project, leading one of the girls to ruin it: 'My stepdaughter can't return home until she pays my daughter back.'

As an employee, multitasking is pretty much a given in any job. You're juggling emails, Slack messages, meetings, and that one task you keep pushing to the bottom of your to-do list. Could you imagine if you had to sit around doing nothing while waiting for your boss to reply before continuing your work? Nothing in the corporate world would ever get done. And yet, that's what happened to this IT team. 

Their new manager rolled in with a "no multitasking" policy, claiming it would boost productivity. It makes sense in a perfect world; you'd think it'd be more efficient to finish one task at a time instead of jumping back and forth between five at once. But anyone who has ever worked a job in their life knows it doesn't work that way.

This roommate was working part-time, scrounging to pay her bills and saving every penny to cover expenses, yet when their friend asked them to cover her half of rent that month because of a 'finance emergency' she initially agreed to lend a helping hand. That is, until she realized her friend was lying about the real reason she was so desperate for cash. 

As an adult, we have many choices in life. When it comes to finances and making wise decisions, your 20s are usually when you start hashing out the value of a roof over your head, groceries in the fridge, and gas in your car. For some, it takes a while to realize that necessities are far more valuable to keep in your budget than frivolity—so when this friend found out what her roommate was spending her money on instead of their shared rent, she immediately withdrew her generosity. 

Dealing with a difficult neighbor is a non-confrontational people pleaser's living nightmare. 

Sure, we are expected to have to draw boundaries with roommates and folks with whom you share space, but when it comes to the people living next door, above or below you, minimal confrontation is always preferred. This is usually possible when both parties are decent, sane humans, but that's not always the case. In this instance, we have a graduate student who split time in a private apartment of her own and in campus housing a few times a week. When she was in the latter environment, she ended up having to deal with a downstairs neighbor who made a fuss any time she made the slightest bit of movement.

We've all been there—trapped under the verbal avalanche of a coworker who, while not evil or malicious, seems to have been born with a unique superpower: the ability to make your job unbearable by simply talking. Meet the Nonstop Talker, a workplace phenomenon who doesn't just share your cubicle but also occupies every free second of your mental bandwidth.

It starts innocently. They ask questions—so many questions, most of which could be answered by a little-known ritual called Googling, or a basic glance at the resources you painstakingly prepared for them.

Just so we're clear, if you're explaining the same thing for the fifth time and their pen never once touches paper, or their fingers aren't typing on any sort of device. It's not training—it's parenting.

If there's one thing homeowners don't play around with, it's their property lines (and what goes on their property). If someone takes it upon themselves to start parking in a homeowner's driveway, you bet the homeowner is calling a tow truck ASAP. As they should, though. Too often these days, folks believe they're entitled to anything they want, and this often leads to a serious widespread case of entitlement that will be passed down from generation to generation. To even the score, folks who are victims of entitled people must rise to the occasion and combat their entitled ways—then share it with the rest of us because, well, it's entertaining.

The homeowner in this next story uproots the freshly-planted trees that were on their property, only to find out their neighbors had planted them there because they wanted a better "view" from their window. So, instead of asking for permission, they planted the trees without asking and now dare to demand the homeowner compensate them for the trees lost. Nice try. Scroll to read.

When you are a pet parent that needs to go out of town without your pet, what do you do? You can ask your friends to help you out and see if they can take care of your fur baby while you're away. But sometimes you don't have friend who are willing to do that or are even trustworthy with an animal's life. So what do you do instead? You hire a professional, of course! If you're going to do that, however, you have to be ready to dish out some cash. We're talking at least minimum wage! Don't be a Karen… 

 

Oh, but look at that, even pet parents can be entitled cheapskate Karens. Here we see a couple trying to negotiate an insanely low rate for a sitter to watch their dog for four days straight. They claim that they pay "generously" by allowing him to eat their food and use their washer and dryer… LOL

Who doesn't love it when a difficult stranger gets his comeuppance in front of everyone? 

Sure, no one enjoys a screaming child on a plane, but you do not need to have a kid of your own to be able to feel bad for young parents. I was recently on a flight with a younger couple and their 6-month-old. Of course, they were sitting right behind us, but they were kind and were doing their best. Sure, the child was crying and making noise throughout the duration of the five-hour flight, but it wasn't due to negligence on the part of their parents. It was the kid's first flight, and as annoyed as I was, I was never going to show it. By the end of our trip, we ended up on the same return flight as the couple, which felt inevitable but the kid was much more calm this time around.

You know that old saying, "You sound like a broken record?" It means that a person is repeating themself too much, just like a skipping record that can't get past that tiny scratch into the vinyl. That's just one way to damage a record, though, as these people found out. 

The "broken record" sentiment unfortunately applies to these vinyl albums that have seen better days! Some of them simply couldn't handle the United States Postal system. Those boxes get thrown around constantly, so it's no wonder that a fragile album would struggle to make it to you in one piece. Many record shippers wrap them in crazy amounts of bubble wrap to ensure they arrive intact. It can be done! But clearly not everyone ships their merchandise that way. 

Some people even bought limited-edition pressings of records. With some albums, only 100 or 500 records will be pressed, often with a cool color variant or a special album insert included. But once that album is pressed, it's finished forever! If that record breaks in the mail, you're just out of luck, because there isn't going to be an extra album to replace it. 

Check out some vinyl record accidents that'll make you appreciate your own favorite albums even more. Then, read about this daughter who got a $400 revenge on her father after getting tired of his demands for her to be his personal chauffeur: '[She] drives him to the most expensive restaurant in town.'

There are often ways to politely navigate the disconnect between overpaid and underpaid employees within a corporate environment. Most of the time, navigating that territory carefully often involves the higher-up employee at the company staying silent about the privileges of their lifestyle. Unfortunately, it seems that more often than not, the person who makes this dynamic awkward is the more privileged one. What a shocker!

Keep scrolling below for this full story about a CEO who decided that it was a good idea to openly brag about the $15,000 he spends twice a year on separate cruises for his two daughters' birthday festivities.

Everyone should already know this, but in case you don't, make sure all of your important discussions at work have a paper trail. That means, even if it was discussed face-to-face in-person, follow up with an email to make sure you have proof that the conversation happened. This is pretty apparent for people who work in HR because they know how the inner workings of a company goes down. But, we just in case you didn't know, now you do—always keep a paper trail. 

 

In the case of this HR employee, she was able to prove the incompetence of her own supervisor when things really started to hit the fan! 

By the time my parents were in their 30s, they had two children and were moving into their second home. My grandparents at the same age had at least five children and were also in their second home. This was a given, an expectation, of an age that has since passed. Meanwhile, in our late 20s and 30s, younger millennials and older members of Gen Z are still renting in shared living situations. This means you're beholden to the whims, ego, and mood swings of another grown adult (who isn't your spouse) with whom you happen to share a space out of sheer necessity.

Having your own place and space all to yourself where you can't be perceived and where you can live in peace is something that a lot of us have never gotten to experience. But when you do experience it for the first time you realize exactly what a massive cultural necessity our generation has been missing out on—something that used to be a given of adulthood for anyone in the middle and working class.

Of course, when you do get your own place, without a doubt, you're going to have some friend who is desperate to get out of their current living situation and come live with you. The problem is friends seldom make good roommates, and when they're moving into a house that you own there's going to be a shift in the dynamic that neither of you are prepared for.

Speaking from experience in this exact same situation, and really for any similar situation, you're better off just ripping the bandaid off early and having the hard conversation as soon as possible before things go too far and get out of hand. Under no circumstances should you get to the point where the friend in question is actually moving their stuff in, or has already moved in, before you realize your gut feeling was correct and things just aren't going to work out.

When this couple finally bought their first home, their presumptive friends assumed they'd be moving in with them. Of course, they would! What fun! The problem is the prospect is not so exciting when you're the one who is finally facing the chance to exist on your own. Wondering how to approach the situation the couple shared their experiencing in this post, appealing to readers for their advice.

When you spend 40 hours per week with the same crew of people, you're bound to make a fool of yourself every now and then. 

To err is human, which you certainly know if you've ever worked with other people. We are constantly messing things up, even when we're trying our very best. We drop things, we misspell words, we text the wrong person, we forget to send out an important email. It's so embarrassing when you think you're on mute in a conference call, so you eat something or take a loud slurp of coffee, only to hear your own sounds echo through the meeting. The bigger the meeting, the more awkward it is! 

Sometimes your brain is just running on autopilot, and instead of answering a phone call with "[Boss's name]'s office, Lisa speaking," you just blank out and say "Hello?" instead. That might leave your cheeks burning for a moment. But trust me, these people below have had some much more awkward encounters with their bosses, coworkers, customers, and clients. 

After that, read a story of "parking justice": this CFO got his expensive car towed after repeatedly ignoring the business owner's pleas to move his Corvette ASAP. 

In the bizarre, modern workplace culture, honesty is no longer the best policy—unless you want to test how quickly you can collect unemployment benefits. Forget "fake it if you make it;" now it's "fake it if you want to keep it," and by "it," I mean your job. 
We live in a world where rating your work experience between neutral and happy magically transforms your bosses' perspective on you from mildly tolerable to completely redundant.
And in this case, HR and the boss, rate this one employee between fired and unemployed.

Imagine filling out one of those employee surveys, thinking, You know what? Work is alright. Not great, not terrible, just…fine.
Only to discover that this response has sent HR and management into a frenzy of overanalysis, they scrutinize each word—the corporate version of they like me, they like me not, but when the petals end, you don't have a job anymore.

Creator marketing brings in the big bucks for brands that have the dough to spare. Online, you'll find countless influencers reviewing a product, and they're likely getting paid to promote it—whether the influencer truly enjoys it or not. They're called "influencers" for a reason: they influence you to consume certain products and create social standards. 

An example of how to not do creator marketing is what gut-healthy soda brand, poppi, did for Super Bowl LIX. They gifted already-rich influencers an expensive branded vending machine along with several cases of their soda. In the same vein, poppi aired its second Super Bowl commercial, which starred noteworthy influencers such as Alix Earle, who rose to fame in 2022 because of her viral TikToks. She is the least bit relatable due to her high-ish status in pop culture and economic class.

poppi drinkers are fed up with the brand's shift toward a celebrity-first marketing tactic—an Erewhon-esque omen—and are boycotting the brand. poppi previously focused its marketing efforts on community, relatability, and attainability. Now, it's just another brand that social media users have vowed to boycott. Customers have realized that their consumerism, or lack thereof, gives them all the power. Funnily enough, these same brands sell out not only because they want to, but also because they have to. Without celebrity influence and proper advertisement, most brands would not outlive their five minutes of fame, especially in a quick-paced, social-media-brained world. This is not exclusive to poppi.

This HOA lady did not choose her words carefully when she ridiculed her neighbor. In fact, it seems that she woke up that day to choose war.

Having a problem with one's neighbor is not unusual, but there is a way to speak to one another that prioritizes decorum and fairness first. Of course, most human beings do not have the self-control or the self-awareness to act with maturity in these circumstances. Keep scrolling below for this tale of an entitled HOA Karen and her disgust for her neighbor's new lights!

You don't always need to be paid back for everything in life: sometimes, you can just let something go for the good of your relationship. I think many friendships operate this way. You buy your friends some drinks one night, then they pay for the Uber ride home. Or you offer to pay for dinner, and the next time, they treat you to a home-cooked meal. If you're constantly bugging people for money that they owe you, especially if it's small amounts you're being stingy over, it may leave a bad taste in some people's mouths. When you Venmo request someone send you $3 for their portion of a meal tip, it makes you wonder if they're currently low on cash, or if they're just always side-eyeing you, calculating how much you owe them. 

On the other hand, if you share an expensive food with someone, like a cake that costs roughly $90, maybe you should be charging them by the slice. That's a costly dish! No doubt this 17-year-old would've chosen something else to snack on if she knew just how much it would cost her. And as her mom shared, it's also causing some issues in the family. 

Next, read about this CFO who got his expensive Corvette towed in a case of "parking justice." 

Lateness is something that should be tolerated within reason. Sometimes, public transit is to blame. Other times, there are family emergencies. Your coworkers and employees deserve a little bit of grace under these circumstances. Even if they saunter in ten minutes late with an iced coffee in their hands, that does not give you the right to make assumptions about their priorities or shame them for wanting some caffeine to be properly alert during the work day.

However, there are instances in which some coworkers and employees take that grace period a little too far. Keep scrolling below for this tale of a terrible coworker who frequently came into work 3 hours late every Friday because she was getting her nails done.

If you were invited to a wedding where you had to "bring your own food," would you still go? 

Yes, that's right: one person's wedding was memorable for all the wrong reasons. They decided to ask their guests to bring their own food, and I just don't see how that could go well. Are you telling me guests would be showing up with armfuls of Tupperware or plastic baggies full of sandwiches? They'd probably need somewhere to refrigerate that food. Other people might interpret this as an invitation to bring fast food or restaurant take-out dishes, so now the wedding would smell like burgers or chicken wings. There would probably be some people who just wouldn't bring any food, and would then be hungry for the whole night. If you can't afford to feed your guests, you'd better have a pretty short wedding so that your guests aren't famished. 

These people shared a bunch of wedding mishaps, from light faux pas to relationship-ending debacles. Some couples were stopped by weather that just kept getting worse and worse until it basically destroyed their wedding tent. Other people were so delayed to their own wedding ceremonies that the event started hours later than anticipated. Check out a bunch of wild stories below from couples who had more than their fair share of wedding-day woes.

There is a danger in having a close friend as your boss. When it comes to conversations about job expectations and salary, things can get tense really quickly. Those discussions are tough to navigate with anyone, which makes having to deal with the blurring of personal and professional boundaries even more unbearable. Keep scrolling below for this employee's saga of a salary negotiation conversation that led to a resignation within just a few months. Stay tuned for the author's subsequent updates as well!

When you're fired from a job, you hope you'll never have to relive any moment from that dark period (unless you were pushing buttons to get fired on purpose). Losing your main source of income is devasting and traumatizing, especially in the current job market, where you don't know when you'll be employed next. If you were constantly criticized and micromanaged by poor-performing upper management, getting fired is likely a blessing in disguise. You can always find a new job (at some point), but you cannot add more time to your body clock—and we all know time is as valuable as gold.

In this next story, an employee is fired, and four months later, they learn that their boss sent a company-wide email discussing and detailing every reason why they were fired. The boss chalked it up to poor leadership skills, but the employee has stellar feedback from other colleagues to oppose this narrative. Now, the employee is wondering if they should match their former boss's energy. I'm here for it. What do you think? Scroll to read the rest of the story.

The trait that almost everyone wants in their ideal partner is a sense of humor. Getting caught off guard by someone's great joke is a sure-fire way to spark a flame. And when you've made it to the point where you commit to each other, there's nothing better than getting into a giggle fit with the love of your life that keeps you up through the night. Even in the hard times, it's important to find someone who's able to make light of a situation to alleviate the stress. Let's face it, when we're old and gray and the only thing we can do is talk to each other, you're going to want some way to keep things fresh, and the best way to do that is by making each other laugh.

One big snag is when you and your partner both have a great sense of humor, but you discover that what they think is funny doesn't make you laugh at all. One woman had that problem when her husband kept playing insensitive pranks on her when they went to her pregnancy appointments. Do you think she's right to ban him from coming, or does she need to loosen up a little bit?

World's largest collection of cat memes and other animals

Welcome, cat lovers and devoted pet parents. We hope you're having an absolutely fantastic and fabulously fuzzy morning on this bright and sunny day. Over here, things are already looking up. The weather is as delightful as our favorite whiskered companions, and we know better than to take this kind of springtime sunshine for granted. We're determined to soak it all in while it lasts. The only question is how.

If we're being honest, we'll probably do what we always do. Stay cozied up indoors, sipping something warm, admiring the sunshine from the comfort of the couch. Naturally, our cat Sushi will be right there with us, curled up like a little loaf of drama. Sushi, our tuxedo-coated chaos gremlin, is a master of lounging and a full-time windowsill philosopher. His favorite pastime is bird watching. We don't really get the appeal, but he seems to think it's top-tier entertainment. We're convinced he's watching secret bird meetings or feathery soap operas unfold in the trees. Whatever it is, he's fully invested.

It's Meownday, feline fam, and we're already confused. Our questionable query is this: why does helping someone cost so much money? Shouldn't there be some sort of charity discount? We think that should be a thing. Anyway, we digress. It's just a shame that so many people go out of their way, spend thousands of their own dollars on saving animals in need, and get nothing back except for the good, fuzzy feelings in their hearts. Don't get us wrong, that's great, but maybe it should cost less to save a life in need.

When the young mom in this post rescued two stray kittens, she posted about needing help to get them fixed. She specifically stated that she couldn't afford it, so when a local rescue came forward and offered to help, she assumed it would be for free. Well, fast forward a bit, and she gets a bill for her "free" help. Hence, why we think the charity discount should be a thing. Anyway, scroll down to read the full story below!

Greetings, esteemed colleagues of the cat-loving variety. Today we gather to honor the unsung heroes of the modern workplace. The whiskered wonders. The pawfessionals. The true meownagers of productivity. These are the cats who have traded their midday naps for something a little more ambitious. The ones who casually stroll across your keyboard in the middle of your video call like they own the company. And honestly, they might.

These office-dwelling felines are no strangers to the hustle. From early morning meow alarms to late-night hallway zooms, they are putting in the hours. And do not be fooled by their fluffy exteriors. Beneath those adorable toe beans lies the mind of a seasoned executive. They have perfected the art of purring through performance evaluations and snoozing through strategy meetings. Productivity levels are through the roof, especially when it involves batting pens off desks or aggressively supervising snack time.

So pull up a chair, grab a cup of something cozy, and prepare to meet some of the hardest-working cats in the business. They are bold. They are fluffy. They are definitely in charge, even if you are technically the one on the payroll. Let the meownagement meeting begin. No PowerPoint required, just pawsitive vibes and plenty of purrrsonality!

Cats are a great way to look at the world. Sometimes they are sweet and soft, so much so that they could easily be confused for a brioche bun. But other times they can be feisty and ferocious, like your boss when his home life is not going well at all. And this balance swings back and forth like a pendulum, bringing with it the good and the bad.

And today we are taking a look at some of the feistier felines that exist in this world who have let their frustration boil over to such a point that they have started roaming the streets in search of things to knock over on purpose. So if you do find yourself coming face to face with such a feisty feline, we recommend not being on a surface that you could be knocked off of.

Hey friends, get ready to meet one of the most gloriously greasy orange cats the internet has ever known. With a personality as bold as his fur is bright, this charming feline recently made waves after a post revealed his most chaotic moment yet: spilling a half gallon of canola oil on himself, allegedly by accident.

The story quickly became a fan favorite. From the moment he slipped into the oil, this scrungly boy captured hearts (and comments) with his bewildered expression and absolute lack of remorse. Fellow orange cat owners came forward with similar tales of slippery mischief, including one unforgettable story of a cat who dragged her porkchop-oil-soaked tail through the house like a greasy paintbrush.

Bathing attempts were, as expected, met with chaos, though one commenter noted that their orange boy once cooperated through a poop-related bath, proving that even the silliest cats sometimes understand when they need help. As jokes about feline lawyers and DIY conditioners rolled in, the thread turned into something more than just a laugh: it became a sweet, messy love letter to the universal derpiness of orange cats.

For more than twenty years, the internet has been our main source of entertainment. Making us laugh, making us cry, and above all else keeping us informed of all the goings-on in the world. And one category that has held strong throughout this time, and that has warmed the hearts of hundreds of thousands, if not millions, is the wild, weird and wonderful world of cute kittens.

There is something about their simple and sweet ways that acts as a repellant to all the harsh and scary content on the internet. Acting as a beacon of light among the darkness. So we welcome you to a place of purrs, cuddles and treats, where serenity meets floofiness, where you can curl up in a little ball and fill your soul with sweet, heartwarming kittens.

When you have a cat, your life is instantly different than it was before you had a cat. Having a fluffy feline friend at home has a significant effect on how you live your life, because it becomes so silly with a cat in it. When a cat is around everything in your life becomes much sillier than it was before. Cats are so silly that their silliness just exudes from them like an aura, making everything around them automatically silly as well.

And since cats are the kings and queens of the internet, and have lots and lots of memes made about them, means the cat silliness spreads through the pixels on your screen. When cat memes appear on your screen, you instantly become sillier, whether you're a cat pawrent or not. We had a silly thought (probably because our office is full of office cats who run around us all day long) - to gather a lot of silly cat memes so spread the silliness right through here, right meow.

Is there anything that's more funny and relatable other than cats? Sure, we know there are a lot of funny and relatable things in the world, but cats top it all. Cats are an endless source of funnies and reliability.

Cats are so funny, they run around in a zoomies fit or make these funny little sounds that come out of their smol mouths. Everything that's cute about them actually makes hoomans laugh. Cats can easily put smiles on any hooman, and a smile can turn into laughter very easily. Cats are so relatable, and that's a fact any cat pawrent knows. We can bet there's not one cat pawrent out there who didn't wish, at least once in their lives, they'd be a cat.

Since cats are so funny and relatable, we think there's one way to celebrate it - with lots of cat memes. We gathered some seriously silly cat memes to start the day with, so we can all enjoy this cute cat comedy even if we're far away from our cat at the moment.

Howdy, feline fans. Normally, we would start off by saying "Happy Meownday", but after reading this story, we're feline furious instead of pawsitive. It takes a lot to trust someone with your fur baby, right? You're purrfectly protective of them, and you would think that all veterinarians would be trustworthy. It makes sense, right? These individuals went through around eight years of schooling to take care of pets. You don't just randomly decide to do that with your life. It takes a lot of hard work and dedication, so you would think that every single one of them cared about their precious patients.

However, we have learned today that that is not 100% true. One cat mom took her cat in to get fixed, and according to the shelter where she adopted her from, the vet already completed the surgery. Well, mating season came around and she got into heat again, so she went back to said vet and did another spay. What happened next? She finds out that her cat still needs another surgery. Scroll down to get the full scoop below!

It is well-known at this point that it's the cat that chooses the human and not the other way around. And it is known that cats tend to make the right decisions when it comes to that. When a cat adopts you, it's usually because the cat distribution system is working its meowjoc, setting the cat up with the purrfect home for the rest of its life. Usually. Sometimes, misfortune strikes, and the chosen human passes before the cat. Then… all kinds of things can happen.

In this case, the 15-year-old cat was passed down to the owner's son, and this son, instead of being kind and respected, neglected this cat. He didn't care for the cat's well-being, didn't care about respecting his mom's wishes and taking care of the cat properly. But the cat distribution system did not give up on a kitty as good as this one, and this terrible son was blessed with a kind girlfriend - who did the right thing and finally, after ending the relationship with him, took the cat with her. 

Working in a shelter, finding good people to adopt cats, seeing these cats go to their forever homes, getting pictures of these cats from their owners looking happy, surrounded by love in their new homes… we have always thought that must be one of the most gratifying jobs ever. We have also thought about how much responsibility that must be. Finding a loving home for a cat is not always easy. We have seen cats come from horrible homes before, homes where they were neglected and forgotten and not loved. And as much as working in shelter is gratifying, we kind of suspected that it was also scary, and today, sadly, we had our suspicions confirmed. 

The person working in this shelter thought that they found the purrfect home for this cat. A loving family, many years of happiness - that was all in this kitten's future on the day that the papers were signed. But the dreams shattered when less than a day later, the same adopters called the shelter with the worst news that they could have possibly had. 

Wonton is doing better now, thankfully, now that he's back with the shelter. But we think this is a lesson. You can never be too careful when vetting people for adoption. 

Hey there fellow cat worshippers and loyal subjects of the fluff. Today we're taking a sacred moment to honor the one true ruler of our households: the smol, fluffy overlord known as cat. We know we talk about them constantly, but can you really ever say enough about the creature who has claimed your bed, your furniture, your dinner plate, and your entire heart? They've gotten us through our lowest lows and been right there during our highest highs, usually perched on a windowsill silently judging us, but present nonetheless. Every meowrning we rise not with the sun but with their howls for breakfast. We wouldn't have it any other way.

Sure, we adore our human family — our partners, our kiddos, even that one cousin who brings a questionable casserole to every gathering — but let's be real. Our homes revolve around our cats. From the frantic toe bean stampedes when they hear the treat bag crinkle to their operatic wails when we have the audacity to close the bathroom door, they are the main characters. The rest of us are just background extras in their glorious lives. So to show our undying devotion, we've gathered 25 purrrfectly absurd cat memes that get it. That really get it. 

Hey cat lovers. There is something deeply moving about the way animals choose their people. In today's featured story, a determined little cat appeared out of nowhere and decided she had found her human. After being offered one meal and a little affection, she kept coming back every day, convinced this was her new home.

The woman (OP), a cat lover at heart, was devastated that she could not let the cat inside. Her dog does not get along with cats, and bringing the stray in could have caused stress for everyone involved. But the cat did not seem to mind. She tried to follow the woman into the house, waited patiently by the front door for twenty minutes one night, and eventually curled up on a chair on the porch like she belonged there.

With no microchip, no responses from neighbors, and no one coming forward online, the woman decided to do what she could. She began setting out food and fresh water and is building a small shelter for the cat to sleep in safely. While she may not have made it through the front door, this sweet cat has already found something just as important. She found someone who cares. Sometimes that is all it takes.

Hello, fellow cat-loving humans. If you share your home with a feline friend, then you already know the truth. There is never a dull moment. One second, they are peacefully curled up on the bed, snoring softly like a tiny angel. The next, they are launching themselves across the room knocking over your favorite mug or toppling a carefully arranged stack of books as if they had been planning it all along. Life with cats is anything but predictable.

Living with a cat means living with a daily dose of mystery, mischief, and magic. Just when you think you understand them, they change the game completely. They are equal parts chaos and charm, sweetness and sass, and somehow, that combination is what makes them so irresistible. Cats manage to bring joy, amusement, and a touch of mayhem into our lives in ways we never expected, but now could never live without.

If you think that it is tough transitioning from Sunday to Monday as a hooman, then we are sorry to inform you that it is ten times tougher to transition from Caturday to Sunday as a cat. To begin with, you have to deal with an all encompassing adrenaline dump strong enough to make an elephant lie on its side and question the meaning of life. Then you have to handle your low energy levels, this is particularly tough considering that when cat children get tired they often get very cranky too, but the solution to that crankiness is food, and as any good feline fur baby knows clawminality does not equal crunchies.

So all of Sunday our cats walk a thin line of survival, while we wallow around the house, horrified that tomorrow is Monday. So this Sunday, spare a thought or two for your feline.

Hello there, cat pawrents. How is your Sunday morning going so far? And how it's going for your cat? Are you all cuddled and snuggled together under the blanket in bed still? Well, that's just purrfectly fine. It's Sunday, it's time for you and your cat to be as lazy as you want, and definitely as lazy as your cat wants it to be. And that must mean a very lazy Sunday, which sounds absolutely purrfect.

Since you're having such a lazy Sunday, and you're already filled with all the feline love right meow, you might as well bolster it with the bliss of cat memes. We gathered some cute cat memes for a chill Sunday morning such as this one. You can look at them slowly, laugh and feel so feline-good, and maybe even show some to your cat - if they're awake. And we doubt they are.

So here they are, these Sunday cat memes, ready for relaxation, chill, laughter, and happiness - just like your own cat is doing right this moment. Have a chill and happy Sunday meowrning.

Ahh, Sunday. Some love it, others love it more. But most impawrtantly, your cat loves it the most. We're making an educated guess here that every cat is happy to have their hooman with them at the house, and this is exactly what's going on here. We're making a second educated guess here, if you haven't guessed it yet - that you're a cat pawrent. We assume that because you're already here, so you're at least a very enthusiastic cat fan. And as statistics show us, if you love cats that much, you probably have a cat. Or two. Or six.

We digressed, so let's go back to our path of precious, whimsical walk of cat comedy. We're talking about cat memes, if it wasn't clear. We gathered some silly cat memes for you, so you can silly up your Sunday spent with your cat. There can never be anything wrong with more silly cats in your life, even if they are little pixels on your screen with hooman-made jokes you can relate to.

Okay friends, we're gathered here today to talk about the one subject we cat-lovers despise talking about - the rainbow bridge. Everyone has to cross it at some point, and although we try not to think about it, we know that a day will come when we will have to guide our sweet felines to the entrance. We are tearing up a little bit just thinking about it. However, this is our job as pawrents. We work every day to give our cats the best lives pawssible, up until this day comes. However, we also must remember that life is cyclical and when one kitty leaves us, that leaves space for another one to enter.

After losing her soul cat of 21 years, one feline pawrent was going through it. We all know what it's like. But, one day, she went on an errand trip with her mother and came across a stray cat that was nearly identical to her recently passed kitty. Call it fate, call it luck, but whatever you call it, we think it was meant to be. Scroll down to read the wholesome story below (and maybe get some tissues ready, just in case).

Bunnies this, rabbits that, well you know what, feline fam? We've had it up to about here with the hare-brained hoppers that get all the attention during Easter. What about our sweet, purrecious cats? They're sweet little angels (mostly) all year around, and yet everyone completely furrgets about them during the weeks surrounding Easter? Well, we say no more! It's time to bring cats back to the forefront of the internet, and we'll start with the one thing that everyone, even non-cat people love - cat memes.

Now, to get everyone on board with this, we've made sure that all of the eggcellent feline funnies in this post are eggsquisitely silly. Somebunny even told us that they are worthy of shellebration. So go on, scroll down and take a peep, you know you want to. Leave all those bunnies behind and start to embrace the new and improved Easter - with cats and all their silliness. Just imagine your awwdorable house cat bringing you a basket of chocolate. Isn't that just so much better??

Happy meowrning, cat people! It's Sunday, it's Funday, and that means that you are obligated to have some fun. Those are the rules. You cannot argue with them. Whenever you decided to get out of bed today, even if it's at 2pm, the first thing that you must do… is have some fun. Wait, actually, let us make a small correction - why do we need to get out of bed to have fun when we can enjoy some hissterical cat memes first thing in the morning from the comfort of out own mattresses?

The answer is: we don't. We can stay in bed and enjoy some silly cat memes right here right meow. And today, like we do every single Sunday, we are bringing you not just any pawsome cat memes, but the most ameowzing cat posts directly from the depths of X. Hey, say whatever you will about the platform, cat content is and forever will be one of the best, unchanging things on there. We're just saving you the effort by putting it all together right here. 

If you are here today, then we know for a fact that you guys know what passing the vibe check means. We know that you understand the things that really matter in life, the things that make a difference, the things that bring joy to people's lives. We know that if we tell you that starting every day with funny cat memes is of utmost impurrtance, then you would not laugh at that statement. In fact, you will understand that we are right, and you will say thank you to us for providing such important goods to you. 

Starting your day with silly cat memes like these - hissterical cat memes that 100% pass the vibe check means starting your day with a smile, with pawsitivity, with a nice and warm feeling in your stomach. Any day is made better when you start it like this. So, you're welcome. We are not going to say that we hope you enjoy these memes because we know that you simply will. Have a fantabulous day, y'all!

 Hey pals! Today we're bringing you a delightful collection of hissterical pictures of cats caught mid-sneeze, all in the name of spreading a little extra serotonin. It certainly worked for us, and we have a feeling it's going to do the same for you. These snapshots capture cats in their most unguarded moments, with their eyes shut tight, mouths wide open, and little whiskered faces frozen in sneeze-induced chaos. But don't worry, these sneezes are completely germ-free and meant purely for your viewing pleasure.

When cats sneeze, their faces scrunch up, their eyes close, and they release a sudden little puff of air that somehow manages to be both dramatic and absolutely adorable. Caught mid-sneeze, their expressions range from silly to cartoonishly funny, and we cannot get enough. These are the kinds of goofy, heartwarming moments that remind us just how special and entertaining our feline friends can be.

When you adopt a cat, you never really know what you're signing up for. This person wasn't planning to adopt a kitten at all, until they heard about one that had been rejected for being "ugly." She was the last in her litter, unwanted and given away for free to a friend who had bought one of her siblings. That friend didn't have space for a third cat and couldn't keep her either. So, in a twist of fate, this little misfit found a home with someone who saw her for more than her looks.

From day one, she proved them all wrong. Not only was she not ugly—she was stunning. Now she rules the house with her grace and sass, and her humans can't imagine life without her. It's hard to believe anyone ever passed her over. Their loss became someone else's best decision. One year later, she's thriving, and so are the people who took a chance on her.

Woot woot, Caturday is finally here, the day we have worked so hard for all week long. And this Caturday is all about emboldening the cute and cuddly side of our cat children. After weeks of clawminal action on Caturday, we have arrived at a specially sanctioned Caturday that precludes any forms of attacc, including the causal snacc (which is to say monching on live things that shouldn't be monched). This Caturday is for cuddles, purrs, and if your cat is not the touching type, them loving looks from an arm's length.

Which is more than most of us could ever ask for, especially if we are used to living alongside a tiny clawminal who should have been put in the penitentiary many years ago. So go forth and indulge in this lovely list the should hopefully prepaw you for the pawdorable purrs that are coming your way today.

Well, hello there. You've arrived just in time. In time for a Caturday craze of fully-fledged feline fanaticism. Will you join us? If you're a feline fanatic fan you're automatically invited to this pawrty. All cat pawrents, feline fanatic fans, crazy cat ladies, and some other honorary cat lovers, are always invited to a Caturday craze pawrty. These are the craziest parties out there - because they're full of completely hilarious cat memes.

When you surround yourself with lots of cat memes you can start to feel the cat craze - and that's great for a weekend. Feel free as a fluffy feline with no worries, no responsibilities, no work, just pure Caturday vibes. Doesn't that sound ameowzing?

To join us fully in the crazy cat celebration we recommend you scroll through these crazy cat memes we've gathered, so you can get into the right mood as fast as pspspssible. So, what are you waiting for? Prepare your feline fanatic fan heart, and your crazy cat lady mood, for the best Caturday pawrty ever.

Once you're a cat pawrent, some things become clearer in life. For example - it's really hard to raise things, human or not. Even plants are sometimes very hard to raise. Don't get us wrong, we stand by the fact that having a cat is the most meowrvalous thing a hooman can experience - but it's very demanding to be responsible for the life and wellbeing of another. Especially if they are cute little creatures, like your cat.

So, as a cat pawrent, you probably understand better what your own parents had to deal with when they had you. Now you're all grown up, look at you, having your own cat and all, but you were once the kitten in the house. So, you know, the least you can do is send your mom cat memes, it might brighten her day.

You can even send her this bunch of funny cat memes that we gathered today, because why not? You might even enjoy them yourself, because we can safely assume you're a cat pawrent.

It's sort of amazing to think about the fact that cats will fit and sit literally everywhere. Even if the place or thing doesn't really fit - because they will make it fit. It happens because all cats are liquid to some degree or another, and like puddles, they are able to pour themselves into every nook and cranny possible.

And that doesn't happen only to cats! Because cats will be cats, no matter what type of cat they are. The cat can be a mighty roaring tiger, but still cozy up inside a carton box that's just there in front of them. The cat can be a lynx, hunter in the snow, king of the mountain, but once there's a small and empty space right there - they will fit into it like they were a cuddly kitten.

Since cats are the kings and queens of the internet, we naturally have endless amounts of cat memes all over. And, naturally, since cats do the fits and sits all the time, there are many cat memes of them doing just so. We gathered some 'If It Fits, I Sits' memes for you, because these memes fit you perfectly, like a cat in a box.

Well, well, well, feline fam. Purrsonally, we've never kept any of our cats outside, firstly because none of them have ever wanted to, and secondly, because indoor cats just statistically live longer. Plus, we want to be able to grab our cats at our nearest convenience whenever the need to snuggle hits (which is literally all the time). But, to each their own. We're not here to judge, just to share, and this post we're sharing below is purrfectly spicy for all of your dramatic desires.

The feline pawrents in this post have a sassy senior cat that likes to hang out on their neighbor's property. Now, their neighbor does not like this. They have gone so far as to write them a note and say that they will trap their cat and turn them in to the Rangers if found on their property again. The nerve of these people! Scroll down to read the full story and find out what the internet has to say about it. Let's just say you'll want a bucket of popcorn for this one.

Guess what day it is, feline fam? Just kidding, how could anyone mistake today for any other day except Caturday! We know that you know that we know that you know it's Caturday, so it's time to pounce right into some purrfectly feline celebrations for our furvorite day of the week. We've got everything you need to fill up your feline meter of wholesomeness, silliness, and downright ridiculousness. Prepurr yourselves for heartwarming cat distribution stories, spicy threads of cat pawrents and their kitties, and all the pawsitively silly cat memes we could find.

We hope you don't have any plans today because this listicle is packed tighter than a ball of catnip with pure purrfection. Not to toot our own horns here, but we collected some great meowments for this week's Caturday meowgazine. It's enough to make any feline-lover cry, laugh, and give an audible "awww" over how cute it is. If you don't believe us, you'll just have to scroll down and figure it out for yourselves. Have a great weekend and an ameowzing Caturday!

We all know that cats are dramatic as heck. That is just part of their purrsonality. They demand purrfection. And they take any small offense against them extremely seriously. Seriously, no matter how small the infraction, a cat will make its opinion known about it. Like the kitten who yelled at water with all of its might after it accidentally touched him. Or the cat who gets extremely offended by… toot noises. Extremely offended. Or the cat who dramatically reacts to every scent, except green foods and shoes. 

You never know what it is that is going to make a cat panic and react like a drama queen, but every time that it happens, you, as the owner, panic as well, thinking that something is extremely wrong. That is simply the back and forth that we have with our cats. on a daily basis. So, really, the owners of this cat reacting the way that they did when their cat suddenly started limping and crying out makes sense, even if it turned out that she was just being a little dramatic. 

Happy Caturday, friends! Finally, you have made it here - to the bestest day of the week. To a day of purrfection, during which you can do absolutely anything and everything that you want to do. You are here, and now, all that you have left to do to truly make this day pawfect is to start it on the right paw, and you know that there is only one thing that can make sure of it. Of course, it is hissterical cat memes.

Starting Caturday with a bunch of pawsome cat memes is not only impurrtant, it is mandatory. If you do not start your Caturday by laughing at a bunch of funny cat memes, then can you say that Caturday even started for sure? Because we can't. We make sure to begin each and every one with as many cat shenanigans as we can handle. We start our meowrning with a smile, and then, just like that, the rest of the weekend is as meowgical as Caturday itself. 

Calling anybody who works for Pixar or Disney!! This is a purrfect mooment for you to turn into a full fledge adorable 100% wholesome film about the power of friendship. Just look at the size difference! That alone is already swoonable with cuteness. In fact, you might get people punching throw walls because they're SO filled with cuteness-aggression. It's just science! Probably… Anyways, can we just go back to this epically sweet video? 

 

This itty bitty tiny kitty, like seriously so smol, walks over to this giant creature with the confidence a teacher about to rap Shakespeare. The kitten walks all lanky and cute, like it is still trying to figure out what legs are and how to use them. If you've ever had a kitten, you know the walk! It's so friggin' CUTE. And this cow is just like, "Oh, why hello there!" INSTANT BESTIES AND INSTANT WHOLESOME FAMILY FILM HIT. 

Hey friends, get ready to meet one of the most uniquely beautiful cats we've ever seen. With a fur pattern so rare it looks hand-painted, this stunning girl has the kind of look that stops you in your tracks. Her markings are delicate and detailed, almost like a work of art. It's no wonder she captured so many hearts from the moment she was found.

Originally named Perdita, after the dog from 101 Dalmatians, this eye-catching feline was rescued from a church parking lot by a kindhearted human named Alice. She was brought to PAWSm (Philippine Animal Welfare Society) last February, and it wasn't long before her calm and gentle spirit found its perfect match in a forever home.

Now lovingly named Cleopatra, this sweet cat is living her best life. Her new human, Katrina, shares that Cleopatra is incredibly well-behaved, affectionate, and relaxed. She eats everything she's given without a fuss, is fully potty trained, and even enjoys cuddling up while being read to. We're so thankful to Alice and Katrina for giving Cleopatra the life she deserves. From a quiet rescue to a cozy forever home, her journey is truly heartwarming. Congratulations, Cleopatra. You are one in a million.

Look, times are getting tough. No matter where you are in the world, money is losing its value, living is going up in cost and no matter what you do, there is little to no support for those who are struggling. Which is felt especially strong in the feline world, where countless cats have felt the squeeze of the crashing economy in the degradation of the quality of their food. And as you can imagine, they are not happy about this one bit, which is why a certain portion of these feline fur babies have turned to clawminal means to obtain the tasty treats they believe are their birth right.

Unfortunately, their severely lacking brain cells have caused them to target their own pawrents, who simply do not have the money for such luxuries and if and when these clawminals get their paws on their pawrents' pawsonal info, they will be met with quite the disappointment.

Cats, though they may not look it, are some of the most diligent and hardworking creatures on this planet. They do not waste their time on the easy tasks, or the mundane, they are drawn to high risk and high reward. Like when they scale the kitchen cupboards to try and get at the treats that you so precariously perched up there. Which is likely how they ended up working in jobs that require hard hats.

And we know that many of you feline fanatics have expressed that you would love to ditch your day job and spend all your time with cats, so we figured you might want to see what that kind of life is like. So as you step into this collection of hardworking felines who are fighting to keep their grip on reality, we want you to imagine that you are spending the day as their foreman or woman. Such that you can closely consider whether this is the life for you.

Hello there, crazy cat lady. We;re talking to you. Yes, you, the one who is reading this with three cats on their lap, two cats who try to nap on your keyboard, and at least one cat in a zoomies fit running all over the house while screaming at nothing. We're talking to you, crazy cat lady, because we have some seriously silly cat memes to show you.

Now, we're very much aware that there's the word "lady" in "crazy cat lady". But when we're addressing all you crazy cat ladies you have to understand we really address all of you. The fact that the title has "lady" in it doesn't mean it really addresses only ladies. That's because you don't need to be a lady to qualify as a crazy cat lady. It's a gender-neutral term, anyone can be a crazy cat lady if they're crazy enough about cats.

Now that we got that out of the way, let's focus on what really matters to all of us, crazy cat ladies - a great collection of cat memes.

The weekend is almost here, it's so close, we can feel it creeping nearby, it's ready to come. But why are you feeling so stressed? Don't be stressed because the weekend isn't here yet, fellow feline fanatic fan, relax and welcome the weekend with a chill vibe. We know it's a little complicated, but we have a solution for that. And we're not about gatekeeping it - we're here to share it with every hooman we can. The secret is looking at some funny feline memes that reset your brain, and help you laugh out all the week you've just experienced and get ready to relax this weekend.

So gather around, all you cat pawrents and feline fanatic fans, and let us guide you through a chill and charming collection of cat memes that will help you relax and reach the weekend with the correct vibe. We don't know about you, but we feel more relaxed already just by thinking of these cute cat memes we're all about to see. They're as funny as cats, they're as cute as cats, and they definitely qualify as funny memes.

Yawns - Oh, hey there, I Can Has-ers. Sorry about that - we're just as tired as, well, a cat right about now. It's been a long week. Every week has been a long week, but this one especially. We need a solid 48 hours of uninterrupted sleep in order to wake up feeling refreshed, and to do that, we're going to need some inspawration from the best sleepers on this side of planet Earth - cats. They purractically invented the nap, so we think it's safe to consider them expurrts on the subject.

But why are cats able to sleep so much? Well, it's because they can, on a meowment's notice, turn themselves into their liquid state. In this state, they turn their bones into noodles and can adapt to any container. Needless to say, we are jealous of them. But if you can't beat them, join them! After scrolling through this snoozy spoonful of literally liquid felines, we're sure you won't even need the meowtonin or purrquil for a purrfect night's sleep. Enjoy!

Good meowrning and happy Furiday, feline fam. We really do consider each and every one of you like family for one simple reason: we know that you love cats as much as we do. And with just that fact alone, we know that you're good people. It takes a special kind of purrson to love cats the way we do - you have to be understanding and willing to put up with a lot of shenanigans from the furry kleptomaniacs we call cats. That's why we love sharing our home-brewed feline funnies with you every week, because we know you're going to awwpreciate them as much as we do.

Making memes is no easy feat. It looks easy because you see only the finished purroduct, but you don't see how much thought went into finding the purrfect picture for your silly caption, or vice versa. We applaud our meme wizards at I Can Has Cheezburger, for taking a chance to make the interwebz laugh with their creative creations. So take a gander below at our funniest lol-worthy cat memes of the week, and have a great weekend!
