Awkward

Power can go to someone's head very quickly. You realize people are doing things for you, sometimes even if you don't even ask, and then you start to tell yourself, "Hey, I must be a pretty important person, I don't have to treat people with respect anymore, dope!" Well, for everyone working 'underneath' you... It sucks. It's so hard because unless somebody plans to quit, they can just tell their boss to screw off. Boy, would it feel good though. Only in my dreams.

Everyone has had a crush on a teacher or professor at one point. It's inevitable. However, have you ever really thought about whether the teacher can tell, and if they can... how do they deal with it? Are they flattered and play along with it? Or do they try to straight-up ignore it?

I suppose it depends on the age of the student, and how extreme the crush is. It's not the kind of thing a teacher would want to get out of hand. Still, I bet there are some wholesome and hilarious stories out there.

Isn't it crazy to think how much the world has changed since 2020? Not only has the world changed completely, but our humor is centered around things that literally didn't exist a year ago. We went from roasting awkward encounters at the bar to roasting awkward zoom dates. At least people on Twitter still have a rich sense of humor. Some things never change.

So unless you've been living under a rock you probably know it is the social standard for guys to ask girls out, and not vice versa. Personally, I think it sucks for all parties when something like this becomes a strict rule. Girls are forced to wait around and drop hints until someone gathers the courage to ask them out, and guys have to pick up on all those hints and put their hearts on the line all the time. Technically societal rules can be broken, but is it successful? Do boys even like being asked out by girls?

The other day Piers Morgan got called out by his co-star Alex Beresford on Good Morning Britain for being too harsh on Meghan Markle following her interview on Oprah. Piers called Meghan's interview with Oprah "disrespectful" to the Queen and commented on Markle's mental health. After Alex mentioned that he was aware of Peirs' previous relationship with Meghan that did not end well, Piers proceeded to storm out of the newsroom like a child who was told he can not have any more fish-sticks for dinner.

Here is Twitter's hilarious response to Morgan's Morning Show Meltdown.

The line between what is and is not creepy can be very thin. One of the plus sides of being a woman is that we are rarely accused of behaving creepy (even though we all do from time to time). However, for men... Well, they have to figure it out quickly. You can't just stare at a woman for an extended period of time, even if you find her hella attractive. It's not a compliment, sorry. 

Unfortunately, there's no real guidebook for how to avoid being creepy, and it can depend on the relationship. All I can say is if you think there's any chance you're potentially making someone uncomfortable just stop <3.

These are very tough times, and anyone lucky enough to be employed has a lot to be grateful for. However, it is hard to get motivated sometimes, and then we fantasize about the days when we had no money but all the time in the world to do stuff like keep up with TV series, and paint our nails. I guess the grass is always greener, it seems that way, doesn't it?

Anyway, for anyone losing copious amounts of steam at work, you will definitely find these tweets to be relatable AF.

Honestly, we should be so grateful that this interview took place, not just because it was very interesting, but the entertainment truly hasn't stopped since all these incredible memes keep popping up in our feeds. Twitter is truly the gift that keeps on giving. I don't know about you, but I really needed this kind of distraction, and I'm actually considering starting The Crown as well suddenly. I just want more tea on this family.

There has always been a double-standard for girls and boys when it comes to dress-codes. In every student handbook, there are about ten pages reserved for girls: No bra straps showing, no skirts above the pinky finger, no collarbones, no leggings, no backs showing — I could easily go on for several paragraphs.

When you finally get to the boy section: No swear words on shirts, no hats... and that's basically the extent of it.

I was under the impression that school systems were changing and people were finally understanding how unfair it is to put the responsibility on the girls to make sure the boys don't get 'distracted.' But apparently we're still not there yet. And, apparently, it's not just the students who find it distracting. Ew.

It just feels fitting that during International Women's Month we honor the women who have had to sit through cringy mansplaining experiences. I don't know how they do it. Oh, wait, just kidding I do, because I'm a woman too, and I'm well aware that we get mansplained to nearly every day of our lives. One way to get through it (besides reminding yourself that mansplainers are trash), is to share the experience on Twitter. A safe space, where women can roast men free-ly, and then they get butt-hurt, and we literally couldn't care less.

Being a parent comes with a lot of knowledge. It's not a job for everyone. It's not even really a job since you don't make any kind of profit. However, from what I've gathered once you're a parent you begin to see things differently, suddenly you are bombarded with so much new information and a completely different lifestyle. It also looks extremely difficult but it must be worth it since so many people keep doing it, literally every day.

Those who believe in karma would say that doing good things brings more good things. It's not a religious belief, but it shows a slight trust in the universe. Personally, I think that whatever you have to tell yourself in order to keep treating people kindly sounds good to me. Karma can sure as heck take a long time though, and sometimes we can all lose patience. At least we can relate to each other on Reddit.

We all get invited on dates we don't want to go on sometimes. Even a friend-date can feel intimidating and unnecessary from time to time. So what are we supposed to do? Sure we can say we have a significant other already but then you have to create a whole fake Instagram for them and get a decent amount of follow backs and it can get really messy really quick. Luckily Regina Roz, AKA the serial dater, provided her best list of excuses for any occasion on Quora. Enjoy!

I wonder who started high school reunions. Is the purpose of them just so people can show off how successful they are? Is it a chance for the kids to show that they've glowed up? What happens if you didn't? It could be really fun I suppose. I bet there are a lot of throwback songs and reignited love triangles. Who doesn't love a little drama in a school gym?

Ah, excuses excuses. What a waste of my damn time. They're so predictable too. Of course, we have all given out a fair deal of them in the past. It is hard to straight-up tell someone to their face, "I don't like you that much." But it's just funny how guys always say that girls are the ones who can never be upfront about their feelings, and then they pull sh*t like this. It's even funnier when they say one of these preemptively. Like he hits you with one of these the first time you start hanging out, assuming that you already want him to be your boyfriend. Like actually, I just came to get d***ked down, but thanks for the warning... lol.

I'm not entirely sure if it would feel better to be dumped for a really good reason, like cheating, or for a super dumb reason, like eating a tuna salad. Either way, you're dumped. Knocked down from taken to single. It's never really going to be fun. But after some time you may be able to look back and think, "Lol I can't believe I was actually dumped for something so silly." It probably just meant y'all weren't meant to be.
