Hey, it’s that time of the [insert arbitrary periodical time] again. So here’s another round of sarcasm (and, naturally, irony, satire and all other similar and not-so-similar forms of humor wrapped into memes) brought to you by the lovely folks on r/sarcasm.
So, yeah, scroll down. Or don’t.

Who Would?
Funny. Also true. I live in a rural area where for years migrants have been hired to prune and tie up the raspberry vines and other farm work. Before automated picking machines they did a lot of the harvest as well. Back then it was mostly kids (legal back then) and migrants harvesting the raspberries and strawberries in the summer because most local adults didn't want to.
Everybody would do any jobs if payed well enough to live decently. Imigrants are used as cheeper labour and abused as they might not complain about work conditions

Load More Replies...One 8 hour storyline, plot development, etc is in fact much different than 8 1-hour storylines and plots. Why does this surprise people?
They’re literally stating that an 8- hour story (plot and all) broken up into 1-hour segments is more watchable than if it weren’t. There are plenty of 8-hour limited series that do this and they’re highly watched. The point is they won’t be if they were considered an 8-hour movie. Think: White Lotus, Knives Out, anything from the Flanoverse.

Once a pupil went out of his way to ruin my lesson. I called his mother to complain. She said she knows how badly her son can behave and that she's also a teacher. Then demanded I apologise bc someone else was standing next to her son when he was misbehaving. Parents who always take the side of their kid are INSANE.

Sarcasm is widely used for a number of reasons, seemingly mostly as a form of humor or criticism. Or maybe even humor and criticism.
But it could also be a way that someone hides their insecurities, expresses their anger, deals with social awkwardness and even asserts superiority through mocking.

Load More Replies...Another aspect to focus on is practicing empathy. Empathy is essentially putting yourself in other people’s shoes. By doing so, you will understand how hurtful some of the things you say might be.
Oddly enough, folks with higher levels of empathy are better equipped to identify sarcasm and get on the same level, again showing that sarcasm isn’t for everyone, so don’t force it on everyone.

Someone else said it better but in the US colleges aren't schools but they are sports franchises with education as a side gig.
So I guess if I was 35 years younger, looking for some academia, I would find a school with little to no sports... sigh
Load More Replies...Then they make hundreds of millions off of those athletes, and still raise tuitions yearly🤬
That sports money has to go towards making sure the highest paid public servant in the state is a football or basketball coach.
Load More Replies...Ridiculous. It never ceases to amaze me how much we value 'entertainment' above academia.

Educating idiots with balls. For free. Sounds about right. How about educating the ones with brains for free and charging the ones who want to play all their lives like kids yet are multimillionaires in their twenties?

In turn, it helps to know your audience and understand where sarcasm is appropriate. But besides individual people, there’s also a whole cultural aspect to consider as some cultures are more accepting of it while others not so much.
Let alone, not every culture uses sarcasm in the same way and there can also be differences seen in terms of gender and social status.

Or, screw that, sarcasm’s good for the soul and good for your brain.
If you can identify sarcasm in action, that is a key indicator that your brain is in good standing. And besides that, you can use it to filter out people in your life—people you might not want to be in your life, that is. Or, the other way around, folks who know you might interpret your sarcasm as a way to laugh it off and de-escalate a conflict.

Eskom probably legitimately didn't have enough power for more than one spotlight.
Except that Eskom doesn’t even know how to do this. Worst provider in the world, quite literally. The sign is an accurate depiction of how much electricity they provide during the day vs. what you are charged. Their electricity plan consists of 80% “load-shedding” (not providing power) and, if you are lucky, 20% electricity.
Except that Eskom is the worst electricity provider in the world. In other words, it charges you for electricity, then provides it about 20% of the time. And no, I am not being sarcastic.
is the background painted those shades to simulate the same effect in daylight?
It wouldn't make any difference now, since the electricity is off most of the time. Also: Eskom sucks. Frak Eskom.

Hm ... the fact that airlines overbook on purpose makes me sick. They chose to do so, nothing is forcing them to sell more seats than the planes has. Doinng that, they exclude themselves from any logic and, basically, leave the customer who paid to get from A to B with nothing but unconditional entitlement to exact that. Companies doing that opted out of logic, out of reason and therefore shall provide what they sold. I don't fly much, next to not-at-all really (the last time, it was a twoseater, summer of 1992), but being told to leave the means of transportation THEY offered and I booked due to them selling more than they have ... doesn't really motivate me to consider anything. They opted out of logic, I didn't, I just follow through.
Overbooking has nothing to do with flight cancellation. Please focus on the subject.

For many people, the idea of a “garbage patch” conjures up images of an island of trash floating on the ocean. In reality, these patches are almost entirely made up of tiny bits of plastic, called microplastics. Microplastics can’t always be seen by the naked eye. Even satellite imagery doesn’t show a giant patch of garbage. The microplastics of the Great Pacific Garbage Patch can simply make the water look like a cloudy soup. This soup is intermixed with larger items, such as fishing gear and shoes. The seafloor beneath the Great Pacific Garbage Patch may also be an underwater trash heap. Oceanographers and ecologists recently discovered that about 70% of marine debris actually sinks to the bottom of the ocean. Snopes

Making Friends As An Adult
Well, don't join catholic church, where the priest and sometimes people drink wine at each Mass. Believe this or not, I'll tell you a story that really happened. My BIL had a friend who was a priest. During his seminary years in Rome this young man, who was actually a teetotal, was assigned to the service of the Pope celebrations, where there are dozens of priests who took the holy communion and a small sip of wine each. They had to arrange many chalices full of wine; after the blessing during the Mass, according to the catholic belief the wine actually becomes the blood of Christ and cannot be thrown away or let become vinegar. It has to be drank by the priests or altar service guys. So his first day on the job he had to drink a huge quantity of wine and collapsed. He was dismissed, and a young german student was more than pleased to be assigned the task.
Genuine answer though: get yourself a hobby that has courses offered for adults like photography, a new language, some sport, singing, or whatever you're interested in. On the courses you can then meet people who have at least one interest in common with you.

There was a guy in my area who would drive around in a minivan with two alpacas in the back sticking their heads out the window! Or sometimes you'd see him on the footpath taking one or more of them for a walk. We all called him Alpaca Man. If you were lucky you might find one of his alpacas parked outside the local shops and he'd gladly let you pet it and take pictures. He had a gig where he'd take his alpacas to various events to provide a fun activity for mentally handicapped people. Sadly though he still has the branded minivan he doesn't keep alpacas any more. I think he lost the heart after one of them was killed by some idiot's out of control dog. It was awful.

Avocado from Walmart for 78 cents makes 2 pieces of toast, bread is another 20 cents. I don't care for it, but my daughter eats it a lot, so I know how to not pay $5 for it!

It's about not wasting money on frivolous, over priced things that you really cannot afford and than justifying it as "self care" while complaining having "no money" left by the last week of the month. If you're getting $6 starbucks on the way to work, every single day, that's $1,560 a year, for something you could make at home for $26 a year. The amazon c**p, the food deliveries, the streaming services, the unchecked gas consumption, the fast fashion purchases....the "little things" add up. No, you're not going to be able to put a down payment on a house tomorrow if you stop buying $hitty coffee today....but you'll actually have money to save towards that goal, or some other goal. So many people are unable to understand, let alone accept that sometimes, you have to sacrifice your short term desires for long term goals, and instead just make flippant dismissals.
Dear Millionaires, stop buying avocado toast, yachts, mega mansions, islands, jewelry, designer clothes, and pay your employees fairly. You’d actually save money, and people could afford to live.

Trash Can Where
and some are entirely arrogant and careless.
Load More Replies...Our council took away most of the trash cans saying it was because of terrorism and the possibility of then using them to hide bins in. We all knew the real reason was because they thought "less trash cans, less rubbish to collect!" Now they pay more to clear up piles of rubbish that pile up due to no rubbish bins. Piles big enough to hide a bigger bomb in!
In North Carolina, I used to mostly see the trash in the rural areas. You know, the place where everyone thinks city life is disgusting and they move to the country for the beauty of nature. But most of the people are conservatives who do not believe in environmental protection.
Funny, I've lived all over the US, cities and very rural areas and I've seen the opposite.
Load More Replies...no need of trash can to keep a place clean. When I was in Japan, I hardly saw any, and yet everything is super clean.
Good point but the facts are wrong. A style of trash can was invented in 1893 but it was far from the first. n. Many major cities (London, Paris, NY, etc) had laws and regulations decades prior to 1893 (London did a study in 1842 on sanitation that made most big cities move to it to eliminate cholera) requiring the storage and disposal of trash on regular routes. There are records of cans similar to the ones we use now existing prior to the London Fire in 1666.

Another day, another yank thinking that a) a lack of curiosity is cute and b) blaming schools for their government’s choice to make their tax system overly convoluted is cute.
That's what parents are supposedly for but THEY'RE not doing THEIR job. Stop blaming teachers for how ill-behaved and ignorant many kids are today - from a former teacher of 25 years.
We learned financial and other life skills in school. Had a compulsory subject on it in year 10. My mum taught me some stuff, like how to budget, but my siblings never listened to her (or the school really) on that count.

Sleeping Problems
Oh man yes. I tiptoe around the house when I get up for work in the morning. My mother, on the other hand, blares the tv late at night when I'm trying to sleep. Thank you to the person who invented ear plugs.

Avoid False Alarms By Waiting Till You Aren't Breathing Before Getting Medical Help
To the title of the post, it's called being poor in the united states
I literally had that discovery in my first ever psychology lesson! We were reading about how 'normal' is defined in different contexts. Discovered that it is not medically normal to have headaches every day! To be fair I had an inkling before, but it blew my mind having in in print like that. (Turns out my chronic headaches- which my gp and mum hadn't fully believed were real- were an early symptom of my fibromyalgia. Took another 3-4 to get diagnosed though)
Truthfully though, that was only the tip of the iceberg of my bad health.

The sign means the parent has a right to manage their child's health. Even if they are dangerously unqualified to make certain judgements.
their Childs health yes, but if their kids are going to be around other kids, the whole things changes. They need to keep their kids at home and away from possibly infecting other kids with their stupidity.

I Remember When I Had To Get Rid Of My Rotary Phone Because Of All Of The Texts I Was Receiving At All Hours Of The Night
Ooooo! Makes Sense
I can tell that this person has never been in the women's bathroom. In high school we (not me, don't start hating) drew porn on the walls and some girls found a way to write very *odd* things on the ceiling. There was a mini unspoken treaty with the janitorial staff where one bathroom was left absolutely desecrated and only cleaned the toilets/floor as long as we didn't draw in the rest of them. The boys just physically destroyed everything like tearing down sinks, breaking soap dispensers, stealing paper towel dispensers, etc. Teenagers are so weird.
Also I found "press shift to run" written on the inside of a rest station bathroom stall which was absolutely hilarious. I don't really condone vandalism, but I do carry a sharpie to scribble that in obscure/scary places (like rest station bathrooms at night).

Load More Replies...For those confused about the suicide references, the guy in pic is Brian Laundrie that "unalived" his gf Gabby Petito in 2021, then a couple days or weeks later disappeared into the woods in Florida and unalived himself. There were at least a couple weeks of a man-hunt, then some swamp floods receded and there was his body. Brian Laundrie was very actively hated in the US that late summer/early fall.
