If you don't tip workers, you're objectively an a-hole.

But if you don't tip, even after seeing these fun and clever jars? Then not only are you an a-hole, you don't appreciate art.

1. Tip me like one of your French girls.

2. Tipping is a love language.

3. Stay blessed.

4. Michael Scott only gave them enough for batteries.

5. Pure poetry.

6. Really makes you think.

7. Putting the "in" in "innuendo."

8. Do it for Jesus.

9. Hot or not?

10. Tip BIG! (Get it?)

11. Who can resist Parks and Recreation?

12. Your moooooooooove.

13. So much pun.

14. Won't somebody think of the children?

16. The worthiest of causes.

Postal workers and delivery drivers are hardworking people doing the best they can to serve the public. Except when they're not. Just like the rest of us, people tasked with delivering our food, packages or mail have bad days. Or sometimes they just really suck at their job. In the following cases, maybe both. Here are 21 examples of times when postal workers or delivery people grossly failed to do their job, and these people paid the price:

1.) "My mailman was the first to congratulate me."

2.) "Over the past six months, Canada Post has lost three packages for me, all of which it claims to have delivered. I think I discovered the reason why today."

3.) "The way both FedEx and UPS deliver my packages (caught by security cam)"

4.) "The 'obstruction of my front door' that prevented UPS from delivering my package..."

5.) "My book was delivered today..."

6.) "UPS Driver Helper Opens Christmas Package and Steals Contents on Delivery"

7.)

8.)

9.) "Took me 5 years to get this diploma and USPS drops it in a puddle"

10.)

11.) "UPS marked my package as ‘delivered’ after dumping it in the middle of my driveway. I found it when leaving for work this morning."

12.) "The way Amazon delivered my single nose ring"

13.) "I was told that it would require a signature, apparently not."

14.) "Might as well just stick a sign on it that says steal me..."

15.) "Hopefully no one will notice the delivery..."

16.) "I’m a carrier for USPS. I ordered my uniforms for the year a few days ago and this is how they arrived. So is this why we have a bad rep?"

17.) "The delivery guy stacked our pizzas on the side"

18.) "Delivery guys left a TV in plain view without even ringing the doorbell"

19.) "Special Delivery"

20.) "Delivery Guy Was Smirking. Wife Was Upset. I Was Confused Until I Saw The Package. Just To Be Clear, It's Neither"

21.) "How FedEx delivered my monitor while I wasn't home"

22.) And the worst delivery driver award goes to.....

Stress, anxiety, and depression don't seem like hilarious topics for memes, but sometimes you just have to laugh. Anyone who's feeling a bit emo will totally relate to these memes.

Jimmy Kimmel has blessed the public with a new installment of "Mean Tweets," the segment where celebrities read aloud scathing insults written by online trolls and haters, and no one is safe.

This time around the trolls came for heavy hitters such as Jon Hamm, Kim Kardashian, Zendaya, Jake Gyllenhaal, Maisie Williams, Chris Rock, and Will Ferrell, to name a few, and Kimmel has facilitated the public humiliation.

As usual, not all insults are equal, and some celebrities are better at laughing away the pain, while others look a bit hurt.

Fittingly, Ferrell fully got in character and scream-read the insult hurled at him: "Will Ferrell is overrated. Sorry, but he just screams."

One person wrote: "I'd rather plant poison ivy plants in my anus before hearing another word about Kim Kardashian!"

Kardashian responded by laughing and urging them to swiftly go ahead and plant that poison ivy.

"F**k you Chris Rock you were on Grown Ups 2," one Twitter troll wrote. Rock responded by jokingly revealing he took that movie to pay off his divorce.

"I just cut a fart that smells so bad they added David Spade supporting character," one person wrote. Spade fully cracked up at the insult, and added: "I actually auditioned for that and didn’t know if I got it."

"Jake Gyllenhaal's d**k smells like hot dog water," one person wrote.

"That’s like a haiku," the actor mused. “It’s a beautiful, beautiful thing to say.”

"I bet Zendaya's feet smell like Funyuns," read one tweet.

"Let's check, shall we," she said, before taking off a shoe and giving it a whiff. "Nope, smells like success to me."

You can watch the full segment here:

Having a first name that becomes popular in mainstream media can be a blessing and a curse but mostly a curse. Just ask anyone named Donald. Even sharing a name with a beloved celebrity can be a bummer, because it means anytime you meet someone, they're automatically thinking about that celebrity, instead of focusing on glorious, unique you. No one wants to be overshadowed by someone else just because you happen to share a moniker.

TV writer Jesse McLaren recently posed this question to Twitter:

"What piece of pop culture has ruined your first name?"

Clearly, the question comes from a place of pain.

The many, many responses to his now-viral tweet are a hilarious glimpse into what it's like to share a first name with someone (or something) super-famous.

I wouldn't know, since I only share a first name with everyone's grandma. But these 31 people were not so lucky:

Baby registries usually include a wide variety of gift options ranging from super affordable to massive investments. If you're short on cash you can pick up a cute toy for your loved one, but if you're feeling generous, you can jump into the expensive ocean of baby cribs and strollers. No matter what you gift, it's purchased with full faith that it'll help your friend with their little one.

However, things don't always go as planned. Miscarriages are far more common than talked about, messy divorces and custody battles change dynamics, and there are also times when a woman may change her mind about the pregnancy altogether.

In general, when you give a gift it's understood that you won't see that money again (nor should you want to). However, not everyone views it that way.

In a recent post on the Am I The *sshole subreddit, a guy asked if he was wrong for wanting his sister-in-law to reimburse him for expensive baby gifts after she decided to have an abortion.

"AITA for having our sister in law reimburse us for baby stuff after she had a termination?"

OP shared that his sister-in-law was super excited to get pregnant with her (ex) boyfriend and made a long registry for the baby.

"Wife's sister is (or I guess was) pregnant. It's a big thing because she was trying for years with her boyfriend. Her health and the baby's health were excellent during check-ins so in came flowing the gifts which was her idea. She made a list, gave it to family, and we all went to town."

The whole family was over the moon, and OP and his wife bought her sister over $1400 in gifts.

"We bought her a crib ($1200) and some baby clothes (about $200) in preparation. She also received other gifts from other family members."

However, plans changed when the sister-in-law got in a huge argument with her boyfriend and he left.

This made her reevaluate the pregnancy and she opted for an abortion.

"She decided to terminate the pregnancy because her boyfriend left her after an argument. He's not involved with her anymore. This is her exact reasoning and politics aside, she doesn't even need a reason. Free country, etc. But..."

Upon finding out the news, OP and his wife asked the sister-in-law to return the gifts or reimburse them, since a $1200 dollar crib would no longer be needed.

"We told her to return the baby items to us and she refused, saying she'll use them one day. Sure, but we can just get it back for you then. This is holding our money hostage. She still refused so we asked to be reimbursed at which she also refused."

When the sister-in-law refused to return the gifts, OP suggested they count them as birthday and Christmas gifts for the year (since they were very expensive).

She did not take too well to that idea, so now she's no longer speaking to her sister or OP.

"Trying to defuse the situation, we then said that this is her birthday and Christmas present for the year and she was none too happy. Knowing we're now dealing with a brat, we let it be and aren't associating with her for now."

Now the family is divided over the situation, with some siding with OP and his wife and some siding with the sister-in-law.

"This caused a cacophony of chaos in the family with many upset with her and many supporting her. Never upset because she had the termination, but because she requested all of these things when she wasn't 100% sure she'd keep the pregnancy.

Are we the *ssholes? Please don't inject politics into this thread, thank you."

unexpected_pasta thinks OP and his wife are completely overlooking how much the sister-in-law is grieving.

"YTA. She’s grieving. She terminated a pregnancy she thought she wanted, because the man she thought she wanted left, and now everything she thought she was and was going to be is gone. Whether you see her suffering or not, that all sucks and is painful. I get that you feel your money was wasted, but maybe having gives her hope that one day her life won’t be this hot mess of emptiness she’s got right now. Just let it go."

MacRubys thinks it's inappropriate to ever ask for a gift back.

"YTA. Never give what you're not willing to say goodbye to, whatever the reason you gave it for. Not really sure why the cost of these over the top gifts are relevent."

Squashturtle thinks it's weird OP gave the sister-in-law so many gifts so early.

"How far along was she?? Did she have a baby shower?

This whole story is bizarre because a) usually people don’t make big announcements or buy anything until at least 12 weeks to get past the threshold when miscarriage is most likely b) typically you can only get a termination up to about 24 weeks if the woman is healthy and there are no complications with the fetus or pregnancy. After that there do need to be extenuating circumstances for any practitioner to agree to perform it, and usually it would be a medical reason."

"So some time when she was between about 3-6 months pregnant, before the typical time for the baby shower, you guys lavished her with $1000s of baby gear? And now you want your money back?"

"First of all, always YTA anytime you want a gift back. Don’t give gifts if they aren’t really gifts. That’s just across the board in any situation. And next time maybe wait for the baby shower to buy baby stuff. There’s a reason they usually throw them at 7ish months."

rishcast thinks OP and his wife are being supremely insensitive about the multiple losses the sister-in-law is experiencing.

"YTA. Based purely on timelines, your SIL was less than 6 months into the pregnancy. While she made a list of things that she would need/like for the kid, it's not a good idea to go super expensive gifts that soon, simply because even w/o termination out of choice, there's always the possibility of complications."

"You gave her gifts. They are now hers to do with as she likes - you never mentioned strings attached when you first gave them to her. If she lost her child because of complications, would you still demand the items back?"

"'This is holding our money hostage'"

"No, it isn't. Holding your money hostage would be something like refusing to pay back money you had lent to her, not refusing to return gifts you bought her out of your own free will.

If the gifts were contingent on a live child being born, you hold them back until she gives birth.

she wasn't 100% sure she'd keep the pregnancy."

"Yeah, you're a d*ck.

Per your own post, she'd wanted a child for a while, and things only changed when the father of said child left her."

"Some women are not build to be single moms, and she might not have been able to afford to be one regardless. She didn't announce her pregnancy while considering termination, that only happened once circumstances changed enormously for her. You say she made her choice "just because her BF left her", as though that wasn't a monumental shift in how she would handle having a child, as well as future plans that she would have had until them."

"Your SIL is grieving the loss of a child she wanted but couldn't have for reasons that should be obvious. She is also grieving the loss of her long term boyfriend, and the person she believed she would spend her life with and would be the father of her kids - which is made worse by the fact that he chose to abandon her while she was pregnant."

"Instead of having empathy for her, you and your wife are obsessed with money. What do you plan to do with the items? You say you'll return them to her when she has a kid, so are you keeping it in storage? Or returning them and planning to buy them later - when inflation is a thing, and prices will rise, making it more cost-effective to allow your SIL to keep the items and gift her something less expensive for a future baby?"

"Nope, instead you're calling her a brat, when in fact, it's the two of you acting entitled and cruel. Bluntly, for caring more about money than a woman who has been blindsided by two huge losses - one out of her hands, which led to the other a difficult one that she had to make because it was the best thing for her new situation - you guys are both the *ssholes."

Given the massive loss the sister-in-law is experiencing, both with her break-up and the terminated pregnancy, most of the commenters on Reddit think OP and his wife are being completely selfish. At the end of the day, gifts are not meant to be returned.

This week, President Donald Trump began to face down two of his most feared foes: a House impeachment inquiry, and proper punctuation.

His response the former has been absolutely Tweeting Through It, which has led to such humiliations as the latter.

The 45th President of the United States of America has launched a national conversation on the word "little," or should I say, "liddle'," after his morning live-tweet of cable news criticized a CNN chyron for misrepresenting an old tweet in a chyron.

The president insisted that CNN "took the hyphen out," and my hyphen, he means apostrophe.

By 11:45 AM, Trump had blasted into the universe no fewer than 13 tweets, all of them in the voice of a very stable genius weathering a crisis.

IT WAS PERFECT!!!

Twitter pundits are arguing that this is not how an innocent—or sane—person behaves.

We've only just begun.

Just when you thought it couldn't get worse for Aubrey O'Day than having dated Don Jr., the Danity Kane singer has accused an American-Airlines flight attendant of forcing her to "undress in front of the entire plane" because he "didn't like" her shirt. She also says she was "treated like a punished lil child" throughout the flight.

She wrote:

"never have I flown & had the steward treat me like a punished lil child in timeout the entire flight.. including making me undress in front of the entire plane because he didn’t like my shirt & made me turn inside out in order to fly," she tweeted, tagging American Airlines. She added: "JAMES RUSSO NEEDS TO BE FIRED."

A few fans are supporting the singer on Twitter.

While many others are asking to see photos of the shirt, which would provide more context for the story.

This woman who says she was a passenger on the flight claims the shirt was "vulgar" and showed "nude bodies from a music video" while there were kids on the flight.

This person takes the side of the crew and claims that the singer is "lying" about what happened.

American-Airlines spokeswoman Whitney Zastrow told USA Today that the airline is "reviewing the situation, and have reached out to Ms. O’Day to get more information."

But when the airline tweeted at her asking for her flight info, O'Day responded that she "literally has no interest" in discussing the matter any further, adding that she's "offended and disturbed" and wishes that she took JetBlue.

Whatever happened on this flight, I think we can all agree, this would never have happened on JetBlue.

Not all that glitters is gold forever, and even the most seemingly unflappable popular kids have their moments of downfall. While the sheen of high school popularity can seem immune to all logic, there are times when school royalty gets dethroned.

Sometimes, it's a simple matter of everyone graduating and moving on with their lives, leaving the previously cool person to stew in a lack of adult direction. But more entertaining examples involve severe cases of foot-in-mouth, dramatic falling outs, run-ins with the law, and public shaming.

In a recent Reddit thead, people shared stories of times a "popular kid" went from prom king to social serfdom, and it proves that all social hierarchy is mutable.

1. The popular kid at OverHaze's school lost it all after a haircut.

"He got a bad haircut, was teased for it an threw a temper tantrum. He literally stormed out in the middle of class. He lost his spot as king bully after that."

2. effervescency's classmate tried to kill his parents.

"Semi popular, kinda “preppy” kid. Tried to kill his parents by pouring vodka around their bed at night and setting it on fire because they took his CDs away."

3. A popular guy from clydex's life went down a very dark path.

"Joined a gang, moved up the ranks, ordered the fire bombing of a rival gang member's house. Dude wasn't home but his four little brothers and sisters were, none of them made it out of the house.

He'll be in federal lock up until the day he dies."

4. ResidualSound's classmate faked that she had cancer.

"She was pretty and fairly popular and near the end of the school year told everyone she had cancer. We were approaching the end of grade 7 at the time. Eventually literally everyone knew: teachers, other parents, other grades, etc., and it kind of united everyone who weren't typically friends and that was kind of cool."

"Until one day (maybe a week or two in) a pair of girl friends go to visit her at her parents house and they bring it up and discover it was a hoax. She pissed off a lot of people and lost all her friends after that. Gained new ones eventually, but what a goddamn weird thing to lie about."

5. Saltwater_Heart's love story was totally worth it.

"He got with me. For real. He was the most popular and I was the most unpopular. He was still always popular but less so after that. Now we’ve been together for 10.5 years and married for a little over 8"

6. meesersloth's classmate killed someone drunk driving.

"Known party girl at my school was texting while driving, She hit and killed someone crossing the street. Her father was a Sgt in the Police Department. She went to jail for 6 months and then had to do probation/community service. Not quite sure what happened after the fact she deleted everything tied to her. This was 2 days after High School Graduation."

7. lordwhitey's classmate made another kid popular by stabbing them.

"Pulled out a knife and slashed another student Kid with the knife went to outcast status. Kid that got slashed became super cool and had a scar, everyone wanted to see it. I can link to an article about the stabbing if anyones interested.

Edit: https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/12199703/School-bans-phones-after-pupils-post-videos-of-teen-being-stabbed-in-playground.html"

8. willmaster123's classmate deserves to be in jail.

"Guy got accused of rape at a party and nobody believed the girl, and people spread vicious rumors about her and sided with him."

"The whole thing seemed like everyone viewed him as a victim, and he played himself up that way. Until, a few months later, another girl said she had been raped by him at a party, and multiple other people at the party saw her hysterically crying and bruised afterwards. There were not so many people supporting him after that."

9. The popular guy at dorky_dad77's school got sexual with a sheep.

"He got drunk and finger-banged a sheep at an outdoor party. He spent the next 3 years as 'the sheep fucker'.

Edit: Everyone assumes he was Welsh or from New Zealand, this was upstate NY."

10. idontlikeflamingos's classmate can't get past the high school mentality.

"Graduated high school.

He turned into that 30 year old dude that still hasn't gotten over high school."

11. crusaderblings2's classmate got into drugs.

"Crack. He and his couple friends started smoking crack senior year of high school. They got quarantined to themselves. Ran into one of them a couple weeks ago, he kept trying to get me back to their apartment to do meth."

12. The popular girl at chrisn3's school burned bridges with her partying.

"She was hired to dogsit for a neighbor when they went out of town. She decided to take advantage of the empty house and throw a party at the neighbors house that got out of hand. Neighbor's daughter also went to the school and had to deal with a messed up house. Pretty big deal and the popular girl never came back."

13. ExtraPlus's old classmate has a classic case of arrested development.

"I’m pretty sure they never left hometown and are now populating house parties, trying to hook up with 14 year olds"

14. Crazed_Archivist knows a guy who gave it all up for love.

"Wholesome for once, I guess.

All popular kids in my school were complete dickheads that bullied others. This fella, King of the Hill, starts dating a girl from another school that was friends with one of the bullied kids. The kid told the girl what her boyfriend does in tht school, so the girl threatened to break up with him if he didn't change his ways."

"He stopped socializing with the "cool" folks and started getting bullied by them, and none of the other kids wanted to warm up to him. He was a loner at school but he made his gf happy and he was happy."

15. vagarp's classmate disappeared after the NSFW video emerged.

"Accidentally left a video of himself sticking stuff up his ass on a phone that he sold to another student.

I never saw him again after that."

16. Pihassassa's classmate had a tragic ending to their reign of cool.

"Killed an infant in a car accident, completely shut down during senior year, wouldn't talk to anybody any more."

17. Marawal's classmate took it too far when they were mean to the sweet teacher.

"He was popular because he was a rebel that talked back to teachers, and insulted them openly. He became an outcast because he made the teacher everyone loved cry."

18. the_flying_clutchman's classmate lost all his friends after his brain injury.

"Got hit by a train. Everyone cared about him until he got out of the hospital and wasn’t the same mentally (from head trauma). All the other popular kids mock him and have him blocked on social media to this day."

19. CelikBas's classmate lost friends because of his creepy love life.

"Got an 8th grade girl pregnant while he was a junior in high school. He eventually transferred out because everyone hated him so much."

20. NotAnAccountant1215 is sad the evil twin was okay.

"Cool" Twin brothers from my HS drove home intoxicated from a football game, crossed a double yellow and smashed head-on into a car coming in the opposite direction killing the other two occupants almost instantly. The brother not driving was severely injured and is currently still slightly mentally disabled."

"The brother driving came away with relatively minor injuries. Somehow he got away with no charges filed (probably on account of his lawyer father). He was also on one of our more successful teams so when he returned to school a couple of weeks later they announced it during a school assembly, basically celebrating his return and congratulating him on a speedy recovery. Some of his friends started applauding, but pretty much everyone else ostracized him from that point on ... given the fact that he killed two people..."

And yes. He still is and was a piece of shit."

What a week. Nancy Pelosi officially opened an impeachment inquiry into Donald Trump, meaning that the people will soon find out whether or not he is bad. The president is responding by tweeting through it, with tweets ending the investigation into whether or not he knows what an apostrophe is. Most startlingly, in global politics, Kate Middleton wore a coat for the fourth (4th!) time, revealing that royal outerwear doesn't burst into flames after the third use.

Here are some great jokes I saw this week.

A lot of people get starstruck around famous people, which is a completely natural response to being face-to-face with someone whose personal life you've read about while sitting in the waiting room of your dentist's office. But then there's the reverse situation: when you meet someone super-famous and don't realize it. Not to worry, celebrities probably appreciate being treated like a "normie" for once. But these encounters could be embarrassing for the non-celebrity in the scenario, depending on how you behaved. No one wants to be the person who picked spinach out of your teeth while chatting with a cultural icon.

These 22 people shared stories on Reddit about what happened when they encountered a famous person and didn't realize it until afterwards:

1.) From XANA12345:

My mom yelled at Pierce Brosnan. She and my dad were at a ski resort getting lunch. My mother gets quite hangry (an unfortunate trait I inherited) and was waiting in line to order. Right as she's about to order a guy tried to cut in front of her and interrupt her. She snapped and told him to go to the back of the line like everyone else. She got her food and went back to my dad sitting there mouth wide open in shock.

"Do you know who that was?"

"No?!"

"That was Pierce Brosnan. You just yelled at James bond"

"Well he shouldn't have tried to cut me"

2.) From Londonforce:

This doesn't count because it's about my father in law, and he legitimately didn't know who she was, but we were vacationing in Maine and spending a lot of time on the beach. My father in law would walk his dog early everyone morning. He met this lady and they would meet up and walk their dogs together then go their separate ways.

One morning I got up early to come with him, and to my surprise, we met up with Sigourney Weaver and went for a walk.

3.) From Syntactic_Acrobatics:

I was 10 years old in 2002 when my mom took me to the Bronx Zoo for the first time. It was a rainy day so we practically had the whole place to ourselves except for 3 British kids running around, chaperoned by a woman. My mom quickly befriended the woman while I made like a kid and joined the hoard, looking at spiders and scorpians and sharing in the awe and excitement of the animals.

After about an hour when we said our goodbyes, my mother told me that the kid, Daniel, who I had been hanging out with had played Harry Potter in the movie that came out last year.

I had thought he looked familiar.

3.) From palexander_6:

My cousin rode a ski lift with Jack Black in Vail. Just the two of them. Her husband and I were in the lift behind them, freaking out. When we got off the lift they’d gone their separate ways. We made our way to her she was like “wow, that guy on my lift was so nice.” We were like NO SHIT THAT WAS JACK BLACK. She was like “THE SCHOOL OF ROCK GUY?!?!”

She was so embarrassed. She said she rambled on about living in Iowa for most of their conversation. We laughed our asses off.

4.) From whereegosdare:

One of my best friends doppelganger is Ethan Hawke. Like it's scary how much he resembles him, to the point that during those stupid facebook challenges he just changed his profile picture to him and nobody realized it. Also his favorite story was one time at San Diego Comic Con he actually confused Rosario Dawson at a hotel bar.

Anyway one night I'm walking home from work in NYC, and I see who I thought was my friend, John just walking on a kind of secluded part of of 9th ave around Hells Kitchen, and I yell "JOHN!"

He doesn't turn around.

So I decide to yell it again, and instead of responding his pace quickens. I decide the best thing to do is to run at him which seemed to terrify him as keep in mind it's late and there are very few people around. Anyway I catch up to him and say "Oh, you're not John" and then walk away from what was a very frightened Ethan Hawke.

5.) From Resviole:

My friend's mom (over 70yrs old) owns a small asian grocery store. Post Malone came walking in with his girlfriend and his mom had no idea who he was. A few cute things happened:

1. She was nervous because of his tattoos, but happy/not worried once he bought a lot of food. She had no idea he was a celebrity.

2. She gave him a free snack for buying so much food and told him to come back for lunchtime for cheap and tasty gyoza (he did come back the next day!)

3. She was worried he would get mugged going to his car because of 3 big men outside so she followed him outside (they were his bodyguards)

4. She really liked his "cool car" (it was a lamborghini)

She told my friend about the encounter that evening and he pulled up a youtube video based on the description - it was him. When Post Malone came back the next day for Gyoza she got a selfie with him (it's on my friends phone so I don't have the picture available right now). Whole thing is adorable with how innocent his mom is.

6.) From sarahm0ses:

I worked at a movie theater in Albuquerque at the time they we're filming the first avengers film. Captain America was about to come out, I remember because we had the huge standee of him in the lobby. I was reading in the box office when three people came up. Guy asked for 3 tickets to Bridesmaids. It was dark out and he had a green baseball cap and sunglasses. He paid with a credit card. Christopher Evans. I stared at the card after I swiped it. Handed it back. "I need you to sign the receipt" he did. And then he walked in.

Edit: thanks for all the comments guys. Just to add on. I didn't recognize the other two with him. One was a blonde woman and the other was a guy with buzzed hair and a six o'clock shadow. Also I only lived in ABQ for a year in 2010-2011

7.) From CynicalAltruist:

Working cashier at a tiny candy store during a lull, and suddenly we’re swarmed with black suits and shades. Some guys in suits come in with more shades shadowing them. They browse, buy chocolates, and hand them to another suit. I joke to one guy about that box definitely not being big enough for everyone, and he laughs and buys three more. They pack up and shades escort them out. Couldn’t have been more than ten minutes.

When I went home, I found out that Air Force Two had landed for a conference nearby, and I had managed to convince the Secretary of something (Defense, I believe) to buy $200 of chocolate.

I used to be a server at a Mexican restaurant right outside LA in the late 90s. One day Leonardo DiCaprio came in with who I assume was his mom to have lunch. This would've been post Titanic so really at the peak of his breakthrough mega celeb status. He was wearing a ball cap, sunglasses and unshaven but I recognized him anyway. I didn't let anyone know and I wrote something like "your movies are awesome, I hope you liked our food" on his receipt when I dropped it off at the table.

After he left, I swung by and picked up his payment and he had left me a note back that said "thank you so much for not blowing my cover" with a $100 tip. Shit was awesome I was only like 19, I went and got some Playstation games with it after my shift ended.

This happened yesterday! My wife took my son to the zoo, and he wanted to read every little plaque in the reptile area. My wife was distracted for a moment, so he asked the nearest stranger to read the plaque for him. My wife turned around to see Scarlett Johansson happily reading the info to him

10.) From tastefulsidebutthole:

My mom is a big sports fan. One time she was shopping at and saw a really large, fit looking man who she didn't immediately recognize but seemed familiar. She thought it must of been a professional football player or something, so she went up to the only other person in the shop, who was this smaller wierd-looking guy, and asked him if he knew who the athletic looking man was. The short guy looked at my mom and said "That's my bodyguard, I'm Elton John."

11.) From capitolsara:

My sister had an encounter with Jack Black where she didn't know it was him. We were at a concert for my uncle's band and she texted me from downstairs while she was charging her phone "I totally just had a conversation with someone who looked like a fatter Jack Black" I texted her back that our uncle knows Jack Black and that was definitely him. Good thing she didn't do the whole "do you ever get that you look like a heavier Jack Black?" thing!

12.) From etpooms:

I (almost literally) ran into Shaq at a small restaurant in LA. He was standing in the doorway. You know how some people are so tall you don't "see" them? So I'm exiting the doorway, and say "excuse me man" and he stepped aside so I could leave. He is one large human being.

13.) From antillus:

I was at IKEA in Vancouver and noticed this lady in a low hanging hat had dropped something. I helped her pick it up and noticed it was Sarah McLachlan. Didn't let on that I knew who she was because I couldn't think of anything to say.

14.) From pinecone316:

A couple of years ago me and my sister were at Comic-Con. You tend to see some a lot of famous people there, but it's usually with them in booths with guards and stuff (with the exception of Seth Green).

Anyway, me and my sister were at one of the booths waiting for their giveaways when a man suddenly came up beside me all excited and in a bit of wonder. He told us how great everything was there and how much of an experience it was for him there, all in a while I was probably looking at him strangely because of how familiar his accent and his voice and his face and his blond hair was. He asked where we got our poster tubes, and that's probably when I remembered who he was but decided to just not mention it because I was kind of still in disbelief and pointed him to one of the far off booths where they sell poster tubes.

The man was Owen Wilson. I hadn't been sure it was him, because I always thought he'd be a lot taller. It was kind of warming to see how excited he was to be there in the crowds.

15.) From srhuston:

Not me, but my wife. In college she worked as an intern at a nonprofit that was doing some work at a local concert venue, and while she was in the building doing things this older gentleman struck up a conversation with her. He introduced himself as Justin, and she commented about a family member who shares the name so it would be easy to remember. They talked for a while about random things, the kind of work she was doing, her aspirations after leaving college, etc. He asked if she was staying around for the concert afterward, and she replied that she wasn't a fan of the band and was going to head out as soon as her work there was done. He wished her well and walked off. A short while later someone asked her, "so you and Justin seemed to hit it off, what were you two talking about?"

"Oh, just random stuff, why who is he?"

"The lead singer and guitarist for the Moody Blues."

".... aaaand I just told him I wasn't a fan of his work."

16.) From Ge0rj:

Used to work at a posh hotel and we had wedding there all the time. I was pretty young at the time, say 15.

David Tennant was at one wedding, Doctor fucking Who and I was pouring him coffee.

At first I was sat there thinking is he/isn’t he so I was playing it cool. I went back to the kitchen to top up more coffee in my coffee jug and the staff were talking about it too before deciding it actually was David Tennant.

Spent the rest of the night playing it cool because I was in that yeah whatever stage of teenage life. Inside I was freaking out.

17.) From Ken_the_Andal:

I met Justin Timberlake and had no idea it was him until someone told me afterwards. Went to a basketball game with my dad and we stopped by the bar area in the arena first. The game had just started so it was pretty empty except for the bar itself. My dad goes to the restroom and I walk up to the bar to order a beer. There's only one seat at the bar next to a guy in a baseball cap and sunglasses. I politely ask if the seat is taken and he just says "nope, it's all you, man." We shoot the shit for a couple minutes. He's sitting on my right and eventually he says he and his wife are going to go to their seats. He extends his hand and asks my name. I tell him and ask his name. He says, "Justin. Nice to meet you dude, have a good night."

He and his wife leave and the bartender comes up to me and says, "You know that was Justin Timberlake, right?"

I immediately did a double take and couldn't believe I didn't recognize him even with the hat and sunglasses. I told my girlfriend at the time who was a huge Justin Timberlake fan and she couldn't believe I met him without knowing it was him. She wouldn't let it go for like a month.

18.) From gregorykay:

Not sure if this counts but when I was 15 I was really into playing Starcraft (being a 3 month old game at the time) on battle.net. I did mostly 3v3 games. After finishing this one particularly epic match (close game, we won), we all got into a chat room to talk about how fun that was. Iirc, one of them says something to the effect of "not sure if you all care but you just beat Ben Affleck." Of course we all ask him to prove it, so he told us to wait a minute and visit his official website's message board (benaffleck.com or something like that). He had just made a post in red (red being Ben Affleck himself) about just losing a game of Starcraft.

We briefly chatted with him and that was it.

19.) From dutchman3532:

About 5 years ago my dad was in LA for business and got into the elevator of his hotel to head down to one of his meetings. When he got in, he instantly recognized a huge, legendary, hall-of-fame LA Laker standing next to him. Normally, my father would never say anything but for some reason felt compelled to introduce himself. He stuck out his hand and said, "Shaq, it's nice to meet ya." He immediately realized he messed up and the guy responded, "I'm Magic Johnson but it's nice to meet you too." The secondhand embarrassment is real.

Addiction is incredibly difficult to fight against, even with the best resources, and no one truly knows what it's like until they've been through recovery themselves. Because addiction literally rewires our brains with steadily increasing demands for dopamine, it can cause even the sweetest soul to resort to desperate and selfish measures in order to get a fix.

Families and friends dealing with a loved one in the throes of addiction often have to set intense boundaries, and in some cases, cut someone off until they make moves towards recovery.

All of this can be deeply painful and complex, and making up during newfound sobriety is rarely a straightforward ordeal. However, there is a marked difference between setting boundaries and stigmatizing or dehumanizing someone for their addiction. Particularly, if you're one of the factors to blame.

In a recent post on the Am I The *sshole subreddit, a woman clean from opioid addiction shared how she lost it on her mom during a recent family reunion.

"AITA for blaming my drug addiction on my mother in front of my family?"

OP started the post by sharing that she's 21 years old and now six months clean from opioids.

"Hey Reddit. Throwaway for the usual reasons.

I am 21 years old and addicted to opioids. I recently came to terms with this and checked myself into rehab, which is the best decision I have ever made. I am now 6 months sober!"

OP's addiction started at the young age of 11, when her mom let her take Vicodin for migraines and the dependence rapidly increased.

"I believe my addiction started when I was about 11 years old. I had terrible migraines and my mom would share her Vicodin prescription with me in an attempt to help. Obviously at that age I had no idea how addictive opioids were. I trusted my mom. They did help my migraines so I took them regularly (several times a week)."

By the time OP's mom realized she had made a mistake, it was too late, and OP was already deep in the pit of addiction.

"This, of course, turned into an addiction for me. I began to have withdrawals if I did not take them. My mother finally realized that she should probably stop giving them to me, so she did, but it was too late at that point. I would have meltdowns begging her to give me one, or I would resort to stealing them from her. This continued until I was 18 years old and moved out of her house, at which point I began to buy them myself."

OP's addiction caused a huge emotional fracture between her and her mother, as well as other family members.

"My addiction destroyed my relationship with my mother and she hates me and wants nothing to do with me (which is understandable, my behavior while in the throes of addiction was deplorable). Many of family members were supportive but had to keep me at arm’s length for their own safety and well-being."

To celebrate her sobriety, the family invited her to a reunion last weekend.

"I was invited to a family reunion last weekend to celebrate my sobriety. My family is extremely happy to see me doing well. I was happy to see them all again because I love my family immensely and wanted to apologize for hurting them."

Given the tense nature of their relationship, OP was surprised her mom attended, but hopeful it would lead to reconciliation.

"To everyone’s surprise, my mom showed up. I was initially thinking that maybe she wanted to make amends, but turns out that wasn’t the reason she came."

Unfortunately, her mom wasn't on the same page, and spent most of the reunion talking trash behind OP's back.

"She spent the entire reunion bad-mouthing me, talking about what a terrible daughter I had been, saying I’m an irredeemably shitty person, etc. My family was ignoring her for the most part but it was like a knife in my heart and I felt my anger build."

"One particular comment made me so angry:

“I don’t know what happened. I raised her better than that.”

Eventually, the comments got to her, and OP blew up at her mom - pointing out that her addiction started because of her mom's shared Vicodin stash.

"I blew up at her. I told her SHE was the reason I became addicted in the first place. She was the reason I had to fight through addiction. She did this to me. She was shocked and started bawling. She said she was trying to help me and she knows she fucked up, but it wasn’t her fault I became a selfish junkie. She left the reunion."

OP's mom left the reunion after the emotional blow-out, and the family is now split about whether OP went too far or not.

"My family is fairly split on this. Half think I am a huge asshole trying to blame my bad behavior on my mother. The other half are appalled that my mom was involved in getting me addicted in the first place.

I don’t know how to feel at this point... She was trying to help me and I don’t think her actions were malicious, but I can’t help but feel like she did this to me. AITA?"

WhatsWithThisKibble thinks OP's mom is gaslighting her.

"NTA. Your mom has a lot of nerve. Just because she was originally well intentioned doesn't mean she's not to blame. She even admits herself she got your started but some how thinks after she stopped giving them to you that absolves her of any of the consequences of your actions going forward."

"Addiction is a disease. I'm sure your addiction made you at some points a really shitty person and you presumably burned a lot of people but some of that blame needs to go to your mom. Not all of it because you've obviously crossed into adulthood and are responsible for yourself but she's got a big stake in this."

MaryK007 thinks OP's mom was completely wrong to shirk responsibility.

"NTA You were a child given an addictive substance. I’m so sorry for all you went through but I can’t believe your mom showed up to take the joy out of an incredible achievement. She needs to come to terms with what she did to you."

HelloImSparky thinks OP's mom is in serious denial.

"NTA Addiction is hard, congrats on your sobriety, what you did (checking yourself into rehab) was brave. It’s shitty of your mother to try and turn the attention away from your recovery. She needs to understand that she, as your parent, was a primary cause for your addiction. She should have known better than to give you a substance that she definitely should have known was highly addictive and, consequently, dangerous. She admits the messed up? Fine. But it is not your fault she did. She willingly gave you the pills, she willingly exposed you to the risk of addiction. She doesn’t get to bitch about you because she was a bad parent"

blizzardswirl thinks OP's mom sounds emotionally abusive.

"NTA

Hot damn. I was ready to come in and gently remind you to own your addiction but...your mother literally gave her 11-year-old unprescribed opioids several times a week."

"She's not responsible for anything you did in regards to your addiction, but she literally, factually gave you a physical dependency on opioids when you were a child. Ten years ago was 2009. People knew that Vicodin was addictive to the extent it was a common reference next to Oxy. It was what the main character in House, which aired first in 2004, was addicted to. Ignorance isn't an excuse."

"Honestly, are you sure this was a mistake on her part? I don't mean that she got you addicted on purpose, but giving a child strong, highly addictive opioids to quiet them down is not just 'bad parenting'. If it was her prescription, she knew how strong they were."

"And now here she is when you're having a moment of success and happiness to try to tear you down, unprompted. Is that how a healthy parent treats their daughter in recovery? I'm not going to make accusations, but considering that you're working on sobriety it's well worth your time to ask these questions for your own sake."

Hopefully, for OP's sake, her and her mom are able to have a clarifying conversation. If not, it might be healthiest to cut off her mom completely.

Kate Middleton wearing a coat? That's news. Kate Middleton re-wearing a coat for the fourth time? That means she's worn the same coat a whopping FIVE times, and that's BREAKING news!

A recent headline on the tabloid Page Six tallied up the number of times the Duchess of Cambridge donned the same Alexander McQueen jacket, and it spawned a write up that's over 200 words.

The post was promptly ratioed, as counting the exact number of times a woman wears a coat and framing it as news is quite ridiculous.

What is this, Lizzie McGuire?

Women wear clothes—fashion reporting is fun and a real discipline—but framing the recycling as novel is just funny.

The nature of outerwear is to be worn repeatedly.

People started joking about what the tabloid headlines about their own outfits would be.

The headline could be interpreted as critcizing Kate, but it can also be seen as humanizing the royal to the masses. Stars: they're just like us! They wear coats!

There's also plenty of other important things going on.

Climate change is real, and people must recycle. For instance, one can wear a coat multiple times.

16-year-old activist Greta Thunberg is trying to save the planet from climate change. But it hasn't been easy. Every step of the way, she's received pushback from climate deniers ranging from anonymous Twitter trolls to world leaders. What her vocal critics all seem to have in common is that they don't believe in science and they are full-grown adults who feel threatened by a teenager. Greta doesn't have time to respond to every single one, though she has had time to shut down quite a few of them, including the U.S. President with just a simple copy-and-paste. Fortunately, she has a LOT of people in her corner, many of them popping up to quickly and cleverly defend her from the swarms of haters and losers online.

Here are 10 of the best comebacks to full-grown adults criticizing a teenager for trying to save the world:

1.) Zing.

2.) Boom.

3.) Slaughtered.

4.) Hello, 911? There's been a murder.

5.) The Sun got burned.

6.) Call an ambulance.

7.) This one's gotta hurt.

8.) Savage.

9.) This clap-back is a family affair.

10.) This woman who demolished someone on Twitter for criticizing her over a photo in which she is committing the crimes of eating food on a train.

11.) This person who destroyed right-wing commentator Dinesh D'Souza for comparing Thunberg to a Nazi.

12.) But no one responds to her trolls better than Greta herself. Absolute legend.

She also recently posted this thread, brilliantly responding to the hatred she's been getting online:

Good news: if you're a full-grown adult who feels the need to lash out at a child for trying to make the world inhabitable for future generations, there's now a hotline for you! Give them a call.

Unless you're completely insulated from popular culture, you know that Martha Stewart and Snoop Dogg share a beautiful friendship. You've probably also heard about the Tekashi69 trial, where he named alleged gang members to reduce his sentence re: racketeering, drug charges, and other crimes. Because snitching is verboten in the hip-hop world, his admissions elicited responses ranging from mockery to death threats. Snoop Dogg has been particularly vocal about the controversial rapper's loose lips and has been posting Instagram memes to that effect.

One commemorates his friend and collaborator Martha, whose 2004 insider trading scandal led to a months-long prison sentence. She couldn't evade the feds forever, but at least she didn't snitch!

The text reads, 'As we watch Tekashi 69 (or whatever his name is) snitch on EVERYBODY, I invite you all to remember Martha Stewart snitched on NOT ONE soul during her trial. Baby girl kept it 10 toes down and ate that prison sentence by herself, like the true baddie she is.'

Damn! Snoop + Martha = Friendship Goals.

"I know a man who gave up smoking, drinking, sex, and rich food. He was healthy right up to the day he killed himself."

-Johnny Carson

Sometimes it feels good to be bad. If you're feeling frisky these naughty memes will definitely make you lol.

It's no secret that the Mormon Church isn't at the forefront of women's rights. Women are denied priesthood and it was huge news last year when female missionaries were granted the right to wear pants (just not to church). But it was still shocking to read this flyer given to girls attending a Mormon youth dance. It was posted by the Latter Day Lesbian Podcast, which is hosted by two queer women who left the Church. The flyer tells female attendees they shouldn't make boys 'feel uncomfortable' with their dress or turn down anyone who's requested a dance.

Holy rape culture, Batman!

It propagates a confusing double-bind for young girls: be yourself, assuming that self is attractive to members of the opposite sex.

Boys aren't armed with similar counsel, and if they were, it wouldn't be about respecting girls' wishes.

Girls' agency re: sex and dating aren't important. It's more important to protect boys' feelings and give them what they asked for.

But it wouldn't be Twitter without some hilarious takes. Some respondents took aim at the poor aesthetic quality of the flyer.

Oof. All in all, a discouraging window into Mormon youth culture. Any Mormons or former Church members willing to weigh in?

I don't care if it makes me basic: I love fall. As an autumn apologist, I welcome the cooling temperatures, ability to layer clothes, and pumpkin spice-flavored treats (my favorite? Muffins!). It precedes the most glutton-friendly holidays of Halloween and Thanksgiving, makes scarves especially fashionable, and relieves the summer heat. What's not to love? In celebration of fall's imminence, I've rounded up some hilarious tweets best read while brainstorming Halloween costumes. Enjoy!

Ryan Reynolds and his boys are dedicated to trolling each other in front of their fans.

Whether it's Reynolds trolling with love on Hugh Jackman's anniversary, Jake Gyllenhaal and Jackman pranking Reynolds just in time for Christmas, or Krasinski jumping in on the Twitter banter, the boys are simply always razzing each other.

It really doesn't matter the occasion, where there are two or more, there will be some shenanigans. I'm relatively certain that's in Genesis somewhere, if not, it's located in the book of Deadpool.

So naturally, when Reynolds hit up the Animal Embassy to love on some exotic animals and appreciate the work of the conservators, he managed to find a way to tease Krasinski.

"Thank you @animal_embassy for rescuing this beautiful, big-ass tortoise. And sorry for shamelessly weeping onto his shell. Honestly, it was embarrassing for everyone," Reynolds wrote in his first series of photos.

While the tortoise looks deeply nonplussed, Reynolds looks ready to start a new life with his elderly shelled friend.

In his second post, Reynolds shouted out Chris from the rescue sanctuary and all the people who work to protect these animals.

He also took the opportunity to thank the sanctuary for giving him a moment with an untamed Krasinski.

"Visiting with Chris and his @animal_embassy rescue sanctuary continues to be an incredible experience. We saw tree frogs, a baby python, chinchillas, an eagle owl and he even brought out a real live John Krasinski, who I got to feed from my hand. @johnkrasinski," he wrote.

Krasinski was quick to comment on the post, clarifying that he needs a lot of TLC to come out of his shell.

"I need an exceptional amount of TLC to come out of my shell..." wrote Krasinski.

Based on these photos, it appears that Reynolds was able to lure a shy, thousand year old land Krasinski out of his shell long enough to selfie with an Owl.

Fans of the two actors require far less coaxing to express affection than the average tortoise, so the series of wholesome gags garnered a lot of love.

If people really wanted to know whether John Krasinskis bite, they would hit up the expert - Rainn Wilson aka Dwight Schrute.
