whoops

Having kids is a true blessing, but sometimes they can test our patience to unhealthy levels. For example, one thing that young children aren't so good at is understanding the value of money or valuables. So when they accidentally break something expensive or irreplaceable, unfortunately, you can't be too mad at them. Parents of Reddit have revealed the most expensive things their children ruined by mistake and I can only imagine the self-restraint they had to exercise in order to not kill their kids on the spot! 

Half of our job as children is to disappoint our parents. It's in our nature, what better is there a way to show them that we love them? We simply need to make embarrassing mistakes so that when we don't severely f**k something up, they can be proud! Do you see? Genius. This is what growing up is all about. Life is much more bearable when you realize that your parents are just people who decided to get down and dirty and bring more people into this world. There are definitely some boundaries that I prefer to keep with my parents, but they definitely get crossed on the regular. Oh well.

If you've ever thought to yourself, "Damn, I'm a disappointment," you might relate to these Tweets.

Texting people back can honestly feel like a chore sometimes. And it's basically a nonstop rule, like making your bed, cleaning dishes, or being nice to the person who pays you. Your true friends will understand if you're just a sh*tty texter, but for acquaintances, you may need to form some kind of an apology when trying to reinitiate conversation. It can be awkward, but if you're truly out of good ideas for these instances, here are 12 very useful excuses from Twitter that you now have at your disposal.

Let's talk crushes. We love them and we hate them. They're exciting in the beginning, "Oooh I have butterflies! I wonder if he likes me too!" But if they last too long they can become exhausting. A crush really should be a temporary state, but it depends on long it takes you to admit it to yourself and finally to them. 

Regardless, one thing is clear, whether they last one whole day or one whole century, crushes can be so embarrassing!

The majority of people don't think twice about what they wear when they go to the supermarket; in fact, most people just about get out of their pajamas for the occasion. But it turns out that one thing you do need to consider when getting dressed the morning of your supermarket shop is the color of your clothing. Because supermarkets have uniforms and wearing the color of those uniforms will likely result in fellow customers assuming you work there - something these people didn't think about when they wore red shirts to Target. Check out their hilarious Tweets documenting their experiences of being confused for employees.
