The company behind the dating app Bumble just publicly  defended a woman who had a crazy message exchange with a man regarding his career. Bumble is a dating app designed to be more female friendly; it's built so that only women are allowed to message a match first. This conversation a user named Amber and a guy she messaged, Connor, began nicely enough. However, it took a sharp turn towards creepiness when she asked him what he does for a living. Since Bumble is geared towards women (and has a female CEO), they have little tolerance for tantrums by bros.

This guy got unhinged pretty quickly after being asked about his job. It's not because he has a bad one:

Wow, right out of the gate this guy is defensive. Then he gets much worse:

Amber responds by taking the high ground:

Then Connor explains that he's "keeping it real" with your standard Red Pill buzzwords about the vast feminist conspiracy against men:

Bumble swarmed and reacted quickly once they heard about Connor:

Here's the full text of their response:

Dear Connor,

It has been brought to our attention that you lost your cool on one of our female users named Ashley. She made small talk, you felt personally attacked. She mentioned her work day and asked about yours; you assumed that she was prying into your financial status.

We are going to venture a guess into the state of mind of Ashley here, given that we are all working women ourselves. Take a seat, because this concept may blow your mind. Women nowadays work. It’s happened over time, we know, but a vast majority of women from our generation have jobs.

Ah, the sweet sarcasm and shade of informing Connor that women today actually work. And there's more:

With that in mind — and knowing that Ashley simply mentioned work in the conversation — we can gather that she wasn’t hoping to figure out if your wallet was sizeable enough for her to move into your house and start cooking dinner for you after vacuuming your living room while you clock in a 9 to 5 work day. Instead, Ashley was (wait for it, Connor, because this is where things really get interesting), viewing herself as an equal. It might sound crazy, but people connect over the basic routines of life. You know… the weather, working out, grabbing a drink, eating, and working.

And while you may view this as “neo-liberal, Beyonce, feminist-cancer,” and rant about the personal wounds you are trying to heal from classic “entitled gold digging whores,” we are going to keep working. We are going to expand our reach and make sure that women everywhere receive the message that they are just as empowered in their personal lives as they are in the workplace. We are going to continue to build a world that makes small-minded, misogynist boys like you feel outdated.

Finally, Bumble delivers its final sting:

We are going to hope that one day, you come around. We hope that the hate and resentment welling up inside of you will subside and you’ll be able to engage in everyday conversations with women without being cowardice to their power. But until that day comes, Connor, consider yourself blocked from Bumble.

Never yours,

The Bumble Hive

Connor really showed his true bro colors there at the end when he named his alma mater and stated his salary. He's going to make some unlucky woman very unhappy one day.

Being afraid of what our own brains cook up when we’re just trying to sleep is what unites us as humans—scared, cowardly little humans. These people on Reddit shared the most terrifying nightmares they ever had. Like yours, they’re a little weird, a little silly, and a whole lot horrifying.

1. GlockTheDoor had this nightmare about clowns that we've basically all had at one time or another.

When I was a kid I had a nightmare that I was pinned down by clowns and tickled. To this day (24 now), I can not sleep on my back due to the fact that I feel I will get re-pinned and re-tickled. Clowns don't scare me at all, so I don't know what that was about. But I HATE being tickled. I try to sleep on my back, but it turns into me just laying there for like 2 hours. As soon as I roll to my stomach, I'm out.

2. For some of us, the party itself is the nightmare, but for slyfox007 it got really bad when the creeps gummed them to death.

I was at a party, and noticed 2 faceless men in pinstripe suits with their arms crossed in front, always facing me. People would talk to them, and reacted like they weren't silent, always facing me. Eventually they grabbed me and smothered me to death when they tried to eat my face. Since it was only spongy skin where there mouths should be, I suffocated.

3. Freud would probably find a connection between all of these dreams about penises and having a Reddit name like bro_cunt .

First of, I've lost my penis in like 5 dreams. Just fell off. I have theories of why I've dreamt this, but I'll save if I ever end up in therapy.

Secondly, I once dreamt that I was being chased by zombies, then I found a dead zombie on the ground. In the dream I decided to fuck it. POV from my penis. It was very graphic. The worst part? I came. Outside the dream. This left me a very confused 15 year old.

4. Sknib_Raj_Raj’s dream has all the hallmarks of a nightmare. Corpses, shrieking, and of course, a llama with the voice of Morgan Freeman.

I was running across a frozen-over ocean filled with human corpses. I suddenly heard a blood-curdling shriek, turned around, and found my self face to face with a skeletal, flaming llama. A LLAMA. It walked slowly up to me (somehow not melting the ice around it), and then whispered in my ear a single sentence: "TIME TO JOIN THE OTHERS." The worst part? It had Morgan Freeman's voice. It then made the same freak nazgul noise and chased me for the rest of the dream.

5. On the pro side for ifuckinglovecoloring: dolphins. On the con: mean dinosaurs.

I once had a dream where I was being chased around a log cabin by a T-Rex. Also, I had a dolphin sidekick. I couldn't sleep for days.

6. It’s apparently not the bird fetus part of the dream for Finwei that’s weird, though.

I remember one night having a dream about getting run over by a steam roller and becoming a bird fetus, floating around in this goopy/bloody egg-yolk sort of thing. You could see all my organs and arteries and such through my milky, transparent skin, yet you could see no bones.

shudder That's only some of it though, the rest was just odd.

7. This account has been deleted, presumably so that goat thing can’t find the poster.

Me and some freinds were caving and swimming in a cave pool, then I head this blood curdling scream and a 'HELP ME!' from somewhere across the cave. I walked over there and found a goat with a demented human face, and it just kept screaming 'HELP MEEEE!' in this pain-stricken voice I can't even begin to describe. Then I woke up

8. User cuckFKNdiesel dreamed of a mall where there was actually something to do.

I was in a glass box, in the middle of a mall, with rivets all over my skin, and blood pouring out of them. The box was filling up, and I was going to drown in my own blood, and the only thing people did, was stop, giggle and wave, and carry on.

9. This poster deleted their account, probably because they’re afraid Katie Couric is gonna come after them.

I was 7 when this happened. I was sitting on a rollercoaster with my parents. Then we went upside down and fell out. The light rapidly faded and a thunderstorm started and my parents and I were chased by a giant raccoon with Katie Couric's face on it. We just barely escape when Cyrus (green guy from dragontales) starts trying to run us over in a speed racer gokart. I woke up in tears

10. “Dreamed I was covered in boils (boils!)” – A hilarious song parody of “Royals” based on this deleted user’s terrifying dream.

I dreamt I was lying in bed. My feet started to itch. Suddenly, they started bubbling and little spots started appearing. These spots grew into pus filled boils. Then, they grew into tentacles. Twenty to thirty, pus-filled, raw, painful tentacles - each about an inch in diameter on my soles, thrashing and waving around.

Then, they suddenly died and begun drying out, into dead, scab tentacles. They went the consistency of burnt wood and then remained on my feet.

I woke up with a gasp. I could feel those fucking tentacles on my feet for about two days. What the shit.

11. User burner2T is right to be afraid, because the Lipton guy’s tea cup is full of blood.

As a child I used to have a recurring nightmare in which the old guy on the Lipton tea box would hold me down and pour cups of hot tea on me. Sounds kind of silly now but at 7 years old I was pretty freaked out about it. It was worsened by the fact that my mom kept the box of tea in plain sight on the counter and I was too embarrassed to tell my mom the sight of him scared the hell out of me.​

12. KaamDeveloper is a Coke man. Or a diabetic.

Not what you might expect from worst but once I dreamt I was being force fed Pepsi. Terrifying.

13. FlusteredGuppy has a nightmare tale that would also work as erotica to a certain segment of the population.

I was just starting puberty and was learning about my breast developing. I dreamt that my breast started growing really fast. They got really REALLY big. When they reached the size of my mothers I thought they would stop (genetics right? Right?) but NO! They got huge! Then they started to rot and cracked and fell off. I scrambled to pick them up, but huge chunks just kept falling off. Then I woke up. Then I cried. My boobs are pretty normal nowadays.

14. Fortunately for neonglitterbandit, Sonic had three more extra lives.

I was 5 years old and my parents got me a Sega Genesis and Sonic 2 and I LOVED IT. One night I had a dream Sonic jumped into some wall spikes and got pierced and was bleeding all over me and fucking died in my arms. As a 5 year old girl this was traumatic. I couldn't play that game for a long time afterwards because I was scared he would jump into the spikes and bleed all over me again.

15. From Alpha_Lantern’s nightmare to Elon Musk’s to-do list.

i had this nightmare where there was this new way to cross large bodies of water really fast. so there was a hovering platform that was open topped and just a waist height rail to keep you in. and in order to get on the machine you had to take an elevator 10 stories up to get on to be transported to the other side. so i get on and im one of the first people to try it so i stand next to the rail and the thing speeds so fast as im looking over the side and i get flung off the machine and start falling but in slow motion up untill the last like 15 seconds till i hit the ground as i hit the ground in the nightmare i woke up on my hardwood floor in my room and i was in much pain and i also pissed my self

16. Even in the dream, 6Sungods had the wherewithal to do something really bloody where it could be easily cleaned up.

Coughed up a lung in the shower: First i coughed really hard, than i choked on it as it pushed its way out and then the fear and panic of watching it lie there in a puddle of blood but being unable to scream.

So You Think You Can Dance is currently in the audition round of its 13th season (holy crap, 13th?!) ,and the judges recently had the chance to see young Chi Tahani show off her dancing skills. The 12-year-old's routine to Beyoncé's "Countdown" was too much for the crowd—and her stomach—to handle. When Abdul went to congratulate Tahani on getting through to the next round, Tahani couldn't contain her excitement.

"Well, I hugged Nigel. And then I hugged Paula, and she just squeezed me too tight and all the happiness came out on her jacket." Abdul totally appreciated having the young girl share her happiness.

Whatever, Abdul has had worse things on her clothes: like the BO of Simon Cowell. 

At the CFDA Fashion Awards on Monday night, Olivia Wilde looked super fashionable in a dress with cutout panels that allowed her baby bump to see and be seen by the world. The 32-year-old is currently pregnant with her second baby with partner Jason Sudeikis; the couple are already parents to 2-year-old Otis Alexander.

Wilde posted a picture of herself and dress designer Rosie Assoulin on Instagram, along with the caption, "My fancy @cfda date: the ultimate cool woman, @rosie_assoulin. THE most ferociously talented/kind/smart/hilarious person. She let me and my kid wear this awesome dress, featuring a window so the babe could clearly hear Beyoncé's speech." (Surprise guest Beyoncé won the Fashion Icon award).

Awards shows should start having a sonogram cam, like E's Mani Cam (RIP Mani Cam, 2012-2015), but focused on the fetus. Then the world could see what celeb babies are wearing INSIDE the womb. Probably something currently sold out on Net-A-Porter. And maybe some Harry Winston diamonds that have to be returned after the show.

Imgur user wafflewednesdaystuff posted a fun journey a man had stealing a TSA security bin from the airport. He's not a fan of the TSA and their long security lines, so he decided to try and keep one of the bins as a souvenir. It started as a goof, and then it went a lot further than he had imagined. Miles further.

After taking my shoes off at the airport, I decided I was going to walk this bin as far as possible, want to make TSA work.

And so it began. Here's the bin before its big adventure:

Apparently the TSA did not notice it was missing, because he strolled right onto his flight with it:

The TSA may not have noticed, but someone else did.

The pilot asked me about it and found it hilarious, he also hates the TSA!

The bin made it all the way to Chicago:

Here it is in its new adopted home:

He says the tray is now serving as a sock drawer under his bed. Hopefully he washed it before he uses it for his own clothes. 

Christian blogger and father of two John Pavlovitz didn't like the widely publicized letter that Brock Turner's father wrote to the courts—arguing that his steak-eating son deserved light sentencing for only 20 minutes of raping a woman—any more than you did. Pavlovitz somehow got over the anger shakes from reading the Dan Turner's letter long enough to coherently type his own letter, father to father. In it, Pavlovitz tells the elder Turner that he needs a reality check.

Here are the most important points from Pavlovitz's letter that he thinks Dan Turner needs to think about. For the full text of Pavlovitz's letter, you and Dan can check out his website.

Pavlovitz got to the point pretty early on his letter "from one father to another."

Brock is not the victim here.
His victim is the victim.
She is the wounded one.
He is the damager.

Throughout his letter, Pavlovitz continues to explain things in terms that everyone should be able to understand.

If his life has been “deeply altered” it is because he has horribly altered another human being; because he made a reprehensible choice to take advantage of someone for his own pleasure. This young woman will be dealing with this for far longer than the embarrassingly short six months your son is being penalized. She will endure the unthinkable trauma of his “20 minutes of action” for the duration of her lifetime, and the fact that you seem unaware of this fact is exactly why we have a problem.

This is why young men continue to rape women.
This is why so many men believe that they can do whatever they please to a woman’s body without accountability.
This is the reason so many victims of sexual assault never step forward.
This is why white privilege is real and insidious and usually those with it are oblivious to it.

Pavlovitz takes a moment to address Dan Turner's lament about how his son's life has changed. Specifically, the fact that young Brock used to enjoy steak, but now suffers greatly from his inability to enjoy a good ribeye.

I imagine this young woman had favorite snacks and sports too, and parents who had wonderful plans for her that didn’t include this nightmare.

Pavlovitz writes about how Brock Turner does not deserve praise.

The idea that your son has never violated another woman next to a dumpster before isn’t a credit to his character. We don’t get kudos for only raping one person in our lifetime. I don’t believe your son is a monster but he acted like one and that needs to be accounted for. To be sure, this decision is not the sum total of Brock’s life, but it is an important part of the equation and it matters deeply. 

Pavlovitz uses his perspective as a father to impart some wisdom to Dan Turner.

You love your son and you should. But love him enough to teach him to own the terrible decisions he’s made, to pay the debt to society as prescribed, and then to find a redemptive path to walk, doing the great work in the world that you say he will.

For now though, as one father to another: help us teach our children to do better—by letting them see us do better.

While this entire letter would be a great read for Dan Turner, he is likely too busy being delusional to see it.

Cara Reedy is a comedian, actor and writer living in New York. She was also born with achondroplasia, the most common type of dwarfism, occurring in about 1 in 25,000 births. Although she admits that sometimes being a little person is tough (mainly because people can be real butt-faces about it), she also considers being different a gift. In this video made by Digg, Reedy discusses how everything from her professional life to buying stuff at the grocery store is affected by people's ignorance. 

"Do you have knees?" Come on, people. 

A redditor posted her unfortunate exchange with a male suitor who was desperate, just desperate, to show her his penis. She captioned her post:

I did a group project with this guy, he sent me some dick pics after and I didn't hear from him again until now

That's all the context you need to understand exactly what's going on in this text message screenshot.

"Kinda funny," says the texter and/or typical open mic comedian explaining his joke, "You've never responded to me in the past and the time I didn't mean to text you is the time you reply."

Yes, of course, a complete accident. Commenters speculated on his probable next move.

"That was my friend. He took my phone and asked you out," guessed redditor Jonaldson. Then Hi_im_nena wrote, "'sorry that was my friend, it's me now, will you go out with me instead?'" But, most likely of all, his next text will be something along the lines of this video:

George Kot is an Abkhazian hairstylist, although it's really more accurate to describe him as a hair architect. Turning those lowly filaments growing out of follicles into intricate braids and bouquets of roses, Kot shows that Eastern Europe (Central Eurasia? It's confusing in the Caucasus region) is leagues ahead when it comes to elaborate makeovers. 

Kot provides video tutorials on his site of how to achieve his best looks, provided you have a mannequin or a patient friend with hours to spare.

Here are his finest styles, with instructions that hopefully make more sense than the Google translations of his Russian.

1. The Bouquet of Roses

2. The Big-ass Bow

3. The Top Hat

4. The Rosey Bride of Frankenstein

5. The Challah Bread

6. The Snooki Updo

7. The Prom Puff

8. The Croissant

9. The Ramen Noodles

10. The 70s Bombshell

11. The Kate Gosselin Transformation 

12. The Wicker Basket

13. The Petal Braid

14. The Lily

A very peculiar video is exciting people on Reddit and YouTube because it purportedly shows a group of Japanese school kids/teens learning to play god (some sort of poultry god, anyway) and hatching a chicken themselves, outside of the egg, without help from any adult chickens. Now, using incubators is totally normal and they're not the first people to do this—but it's still crazy (and a lot cooler than what American science students do). Scroll down for the explanation if you don't have time for the video.

After cracking the egg into a glass, they fertilize it, and place the egg into an incubator. Then they get really, really excited.

And over a few weeks, this—

According to the very helpful How Stuff Works explanation of the video, there's a 2014 academic paper that details how this method actually works. Which is great, because there's not a single scientist in the Someecards office (if there was, all ants would be turned into dogs). 

—becomes this—

The paper concludes that the chicks in this method have a 57 percent chance of hatching. While this isn't great for farming, it could help "preserve rare birds" in the event that scientists come across a damaged egg from an endangered bird.

—and eventually, this.

The paper also, presumably, concludes that this method is dope—and that Japan's the best place in the world to not sleep through science class.

Apple took down a game from its app store, "La Petit Mort," in which the objective is to touch a vagina until it reaches orgasm. "La Petit Mort," is a colloquialism for orgasms in French. This is a shame, not only because this game would increase the number of happy people on Earth, but because it actually looks kind of fun and arty. For instance, the onscreen vulva is obscured, decolorized, and pixelated to the point where it is only vaguely suggestive of genitals (Georgia O'Keeffe paintings are more explicit). It's SFW enough that we can show you this video showing the game in action:

"The player can’t just rub the screen quickly to make the vagina orgasm as fast as possible," according to the video game blog Kotaku. "Instead, the player has to take it slow, paying close attention to how the vagina is reacting to the touch." Same. 

The game is still available on Android, for those of you who want to, um, practice some things.

Besides her powerhouse voice and that time she licked a donut, the most famous thing about singer Ariana Grande is her high ponytail. It's a staple of hers, and it's adorable. It was basically the star of her SNL promo photos:

But fellow Ariana Grande ponytail fans: there's something you need to know. There has been a change to the ponytail. It's blonde now—or at least ombré blonde—with the hair darker at the roots and fading to pale blonde at the ends.

Here's how it looks in her pony:

Yup. You will still have a weird crush on her.

Catherine Haberkorn must've been married to a whole new level of douche (at the very least, in her eyes) if their marriage inspired her take-no-prisoners "divorce photo shoot." In it, Haberkorn burns photos of the couple in the woods while wearing a leather corset (first under a wedding dress) in the June sun. That was before the knife came out. She also must've have been so warm during that photo shoot.

According to BuzzFeed, Haberkorn decided to do the shoot at the suggestion of Angela Josephine Ferraro, a local Iowa photographer and friend of Haberkorn's.

There's a nice little story being told Ferraro's photos: happy bride becomes country music video revenge vixen upon learning her man cheated on her.

Haberkorn got moody real quick.

There's some pretty obvious symbolism in these photos.

Some of that symbolism was sexual.

Haberkorn stripped down into something more comfortable.

How was her makeup not sweating off her face if she was wearing that under a wedding dress

Then the knife came out.

Kinda lame she didn't stab that dress to shreds. She did take out more feelings on photos with her ex, though.

The photos received mixed reactions on the photographer's Facebook page.

Ferraro shared her own response to negative comments.

Judging by Haberkorn's attitude in her photos, she doesn't give a shit about what you think.

Christina Aguilera, one of the bleach blonde pop princesses that dominated music from the in the '90s and '00s, has abandoned her signature hair color for something a little more fiery. First, the before picture: 

And now, the after. 

She definitely strikes a resemblance to sexy cartoon character Jessica Rabbit, except with more clothes and less-unfortunate hairline. 

Aguilera, who is currently a judge on The Voice, has had blonde hair pretty much since forever, so the the dye job is definitely a new look for the singer. She debuted her new do at Hillary Clinton's "She's With Us" fundraiser at The Greek in L.A. on Monday. 

A recent video of a panther stalking and "attacking" a man seems terrifying, but thankfully the man is Eduardo Serio, friend to large cats. Serio founded The Black Jaguar-White Tiger Foundation, which rescues exotic cats from the clutches of zoos and illegal pet owners.

This panther is named Kal-El, which is (of course) the birth name of Superman on Krypton. It's a bird! It's a plane! ...it's a cat:

Here's some more fun wrestling with another giant cat:

There's actually a whole lot of cat wrestling. They really like to play:

It looks like those cats are living the dream.

Singer Rihanna is currently on vacation in Turks and Caicos, and though it always looks fun being Rihanna, it especially looks fun being Rihanna lying on white beaches in fun bathing suits. It's summer—don't you want to be doing exactly what Rihanna's doing in the pic below?

Rihanna's friend Melissa Forde shared a ton more photos of the singer, whose daily planner right now probably looks like this: sunbathe, swim, eat, drink, sleep, repeat. God, Rihanna. Just... God.

You can book a flight right now to Turks and Caicos from New York City for only $372. Or you can continue sitting at your office chair and dying slowly.
