People are so, so annoying. On a flight, they'll put their feet on your armrest (I cannot fathom how somebody dares to do this), they'll push past you in line at the supermarket, they'll block your car in when you're about to leave for work… You know, the usual Karen stuff. Is there any good left in this world? If there is, where is it? Just reading these 'mildly infuriating' stories makes me lose hope for the future of humanity. But hey, what is Dumbeldore quote again… Happiness can be found, even in the darkest of times, if one only remembers to turn on the light. So let's turn on the light and laugh at other people's misery, eh? Scroll down for the funniest, most entertaining, and most annoying stories of the week shared by people who deserve a break.

Then check out these hilarious random memes to turn that frown upside down.
