I expected stories like “I opted out of this class that turned out to have a terrible teacher” stories instead of “I opted out of this and they all died”
I was expecting MLMs.
We got different meanings to the phrase "Horribly Wrong" I'm guessing.
yep, gotta love them melodramatics
I was 100%, expecting death stories. Maybe it's because I have a dark mind. I mean, I'm the kind of person who can't even look at a ditch without thinking "what if there's a dead body there." I see a pile of rocks and think" I wonder if someone is buried in those" so 🤷♀️
@@Mskittenlover12 Nah, that's cos we know what horribly wrong means.
Storys: plane crash nobody survived, bridge broke and killed everyone, I almost went on a date with ted bundy, My friend was murdered.
Music: hi, welcome to Olive Garden. May I take your order?
You know the stories are fucked when a dog shitting in someone's camping tent is the most wholesome of the bunch.
360 View or club penguin lever music
By bridge broke and killed everyone, I assume you mean the Cave Creek Disaster... Not everyone died.
maria bodea wait is it from club penguin?!?!?!?!
360 View no,this is the elevator or lobby music,the pizza parlor from CP is much less jazzy
That Dad who wouldn't let Ted Bundy in has got to be dad of the year
ikr
Dad reflexes 1000
when they were like 70’s Seattle charming dude dad wouldn’t let him in i was like what if they say ted bundy
Best dad ever
Thank God that the woman's father's instincts were exceptional😅. God bless the good fathers😄.
The Ted Bundy one was really disturbing. The girl dodged a nuke.
Old man had some real intuition, reminds me of that book Blink.
@@pavelthefabulous5675 Whether it's intuition or a call from God I don't care. But I wonder how the girl felt when she saw his face in the newspaper and how close to death she must have been.
That must feel really scary how close she was to getting killed.
Death was literally knocking on her door
My best friend's grandmother knew a lady who went on a date with Ted Bundy when he lived in Utah. She also is still alive today.
All of these are people dodging death and one is just, “almost was in a tent with diarrhea dog”
There are things worse than dying
Lawson Greensill, Like dying in a stupid way?

I bet that chick who's dad told her she couldn't date Ted Bundy always trusted his judgement after that

My brother when he was younger threw a tantrum and because of it, my dad survived nine eleven
The one time I'd forgive someone throwing a tantrum at me.
My cousin worked in one of the Twin Towers. She was 2 months pregnant, having morning sickness which caused her to run late for work that morning. So her son saved her life before he was even born.
@@jeff6413
best kid ever.
My mother was supposed to be on the first flight that hit the first tower but she ended up getting it switched with a a lady who needed to see her father immediately because he had a heart attack. She was gonna have to wait til the next day since all the flights were booked so my mother gave up her seat and was gonna take the flight the next day. Truly horrible to think about.
Jhomas Tefferson it’s good that your mom lived, but the woman dying just hits me because my mom did a similar trip for her mother.

Jargas101 kinda mean and heartless but you also have a point
Hero
@@Jargas101 if you'd call the next few years of guilt as you know you took the executive decision to kill an old woman for the chance to survive, living. A normal person might be able to make the decision in a panic, but afterwards you'd be followed by those memories, until you gave up your job, closed off all friends and probably suffer depression for quite a while, even forever.
This was some final destination type stuff right here.
literally scrolled into the comments to say just that. It's such a weird collection of accidental deaths all mashed together.
... but then they would have died from a speeding bus or a falling plane engine shortly after
Don't remind me of those films, they still give me nightmares XD
Truly the one Horror Movie that scared me.

I expected some sort of bear attack or something like that.

My break at work is over but i just wanna mention how glad i am that the story i thought was gonna end with people lost in the woods actually just ended with dog shit. It's nice to know everything isn't a life or death incident.
Death would have been preferable to waking up covered in dog diarrhea
I once got pulled out of a school sponsored trip to Washington DC back in middle school so my parents could take a family vacation with me and my two brothers to Florida. I was kinda bummed at first because I was a huge history buff at the time, but as I learned from the people who went, several kids got sick but still had to walk with everyone and they usually ended up puking from the long hours of nonstop walking, countless others got nosebleeds, and everyone got maybe 5 or 6-ish hours of sleep at most every night. You can imagine the shock that my slightly tanned ginger-ass 14 year old self had when everyone looked like they just came crawling out of their caskets. To this day I'm still glad I never went through that dumpster fire of a school trip and that my awkward teenage self actually enjoyed myself on a vacation for the first time in a long while.

Friend of mind could've squeezed on one of the 7/7 bombed trains in London but declined last minute. Heard the explosion while on the platform...
When I was 16, decided not go out on a Friday for the first time in ages. An ex friend (after what happened that night) decide to rob a kid for his phone while the others weren't looking. Police got involved, came to the school, their homes, and they all had to go to court. Lucky me eh?

Same sort of thing, my Grandma and me were in Manchester the day the IRA bombed the shopping centre - just went around the corner when it blew
Ok so I actually have a story
It was the Sunday before the main event happened, me and my dad were planning to get tickets to a festival downtown. (My town is more of a larger city, but still not at large as New York or LA.) Unfortunately, news broke out to us that my grandfather dies and his funeral would be the following Sunday. Long story short, we go to the funeral and come home, too tired to go to the festival and decide to sleep in. Needless to say My dead grandfather saved me from possibly becoming one of the 58 killed or over 500 injured in the October 1 massacre in Las Vegas.
I still think he had something to to with me and my dad not going, thought I’d share for those down reading this..
Sounds to me like he protected yall. Glad you and ur dad are ok. Sorry about your grandpa. But sounds like he is watching over you!
Thank you so much for sharing this 💕 seems he was looking out for you ❤️
@@jennj2049 Your Granpa in heaven was like: Naw St. Peter reschedule our family reunion in 90 years.

"They had a very misbehaved dog in the house that shat in the house"
To be fair to the dog, knowing how messy these guys were they most likely didn't even take it outside for a walk and had to hold it in for too long.
Yeah. Some dogs do have bad temperment, but 99.9% of the time, it's the owners' fault when dogs behave badly.
Not an opt out story, more of a forced opt in. I was going to a Band event a few hours away and was set to ride there with my Band teacher. I had a dream the night before that we would get in an accident and I'd be the only one injured. I begged my Mom to drive me or to let me stay home, but was told to just go. Two hours later I was calling my Mom telling her about the accident. Hit and run. My shoulder and neck are still messed up years later.
How did she feel about it after the fact?
@@samb4772 She felt really bad about it, and whenever I have a bad feeling about something she usually trusts me haha!
Damn. Was anyone else injured?
@@ethan4547 Nope, I got injured cause I had my head turned, everyone else was fine.
When I was little, I got sick one day so my mom had to stay home instead of running errands. That morning a crane driving over a bridge caused it to collapse, falling about a hundred feet, killing the driver of the crane and everyone in a car that was behind him. Mom and I could have been on that bridge.
When I rotated back home from my second deployment, while doing demobilization out processing at Fort Hood, the Army Doctor examining my physical health noticed I had an upper respiratory infection. He told me he would recommend I be temporarily assigned to the WTU and report to the SRP building every day until my lungs cleared up, which he estimated would take roughly a month. I was two weeks shy of 21 and my unit was set to take block leave. Between two deployments I had spent 27 months in Iraq and was ungodly homesick, so I wasn't keen on the idea of waiting around for 30 more days in temporary housing. After 2 days of essentially pleading with higher ups to let me go on block leave and report back after for an examination, they finally agreed and cleared me...
8 days later an Army Major walked into the same building brandishing duel hand guns and proceed to dump round after round into the group of soldiers waiting in the SRP hallway - the EXACT place I would have been standing if I hadn't persuaded Medical to let me go home.
Woah. Any articles on this I can read? Know what the story might be called?

Thank you for your service. I'm glad you've made it.
Here's one for the lovely people in the comments section. The Reno Air races disaster. My parents have a friend who wanted to give us some free tickets in the good section of the bleachers that he had, we couldn't make it due to a scheduling conflict. Then a highly modified P-51 mustang crashed into the bleachers and killing 11 people (pilot included), and injuring 69 in the crowd. The kicker is it crashed right where we would have been sat in the "luxury seating". I don't think about it much but this video made me remember it. Idk how to explain it but for an unlucky person (in general) I have pretty good luck when it comes to not dying/being severely injured.
Lol my dad he was gonna go to the twin towers on the first tower that got hit and he would have died on impact
Injuring 69. Nice

Hillsborough.
In 1989 Liverpool football club were due to play a game in Sheffield. I'm a native of Liverpool, and at the time I was a student in Sheffield. I had no ticket, so I had the thought that I might go down and try to buy one outside the ground.
But a bunch of friends decided to go to an amusement park that day (Alton Towers), and I decided to go with them instead.
I got home late that night and found that a huge crowd of ticketless people had gathered outside the ground. The cops opened a big gate and let them pour into the ground, into a stand that was, as many were at the time, surrounded by concrete walls and steel fences. A massive crush developed and 94 people died. If I hadn't just decided to go with my friends that day, I'd have been in that crowd.
Worst part was I'd told my parents I might go to the match, but not that I'd changed my plans. This was pre-cellphone days, so whilst I had fun at the amusement park they got to spend the day trying to find out whether I was dead or not.
Graham Kennedy Oh shit. What did they do when they found out you were alive?
@@marie-claire3730 I was living in student digs at the time, so I didn't even have a landline. I got home around 9pm and saw the news, went out to the payphone and called them. They were super relieved, obviously, and we had a teary conversation to explain where I'd been and what had been happening.
Graham Kennedy stay safe mate! YNWA
@@MuhammadAhsan-qu1tt Thanks!
Omg your poor parents! I’m sure they were so relieved to see you and know that you were safe! What a horrible feeling

To the guy who died trying to take the impact of the skydive fall for the grandmother, you're a hero dude. That's gotta take some incredible bravery and selflessness in order to be willing to not only put yourself in harms way before a stranger, but also be able to think of doing that in such a situation.
I swear the pronunciation of the bot is getting worse with every video
I'm still stunned that it can't handle everyday words like "coworker" and "makeup", but then it fucking nails an incredibly obscure and complex term out of fucking nowhere
Yeah😂
"Pleen"
Makyup. Cow-worker
Wobbles and Bean Yeah, like that time in one video it managed to pronounce “syphilitic” perfectly, then screwed up simple words like coworker. Though it sort of makes sense, since syphilitic doesn’t have any odd vowels like makEUp or misleading combinations like COWorker, and more or less pronounced as it’s spelled one you take the “ph” into account.

back in 2009 we were celebrating queen’s day (the netherlands) with my entire family. the royal family picked a city to visit for the day (as they do every year) and they picked mine that year so the parties and parades were bigger than usual. so we wanted to go see the royal family near the royal palace in my city, watch it from the intersection because it was the easiest to reach around there. my little sister had to pee though so we went to my grandparents’ apartment in the city’s centre and as we were waiting we watched the national broadcast of the queen’s parade. as me and my parents and uncles/aunts were watching, someone drove their car into the crowd at full speed in an attempt to kill the royal family. 8 people didn’t survive (including the driver) and dozens of people were injured. bodies literally flew all over the street, it was all visible on the live broadcast.
outside all parades froze, people on the street started getting updates and they freaked out. had it not been for my sister’s tiny bladder, I probably would’ve been either dead or severely traumatized now.
every once in a while youtube recommends me a video of the attack though and it brings back all the horrible memories and it really really sucks hdhs but yeah if you want more information you can look up 2009 apeldoorn queen’s day and it will give you all the info and even videos
I just went and looked it up. Truly tragic. But hey interesting story you got to tell. Im sure i have some sort of thing in my past but nothing that be so life altering as that.
I am Dutch too and had completely forgotten about this, but I knew exactly what you were talking about after you said (the Netherlands) I'm happy this turned out good for you and your family.
1. I was at Camden Park and opted out of riding a ride there in favor of leaving. Turns out it went out of control and someone died as we were pulling out of the parking lot. Had I stayed in the line, I may not be alive. (Edit: I was going by what a friend told me was on the news right afterwords. Turns out they were wrong.) Can't find where anyone died, but more than 50 people were injured. Source: www.herald-dispatch.com/news/recent_news/readers-remember-years-of-camden-park/article_28eac9cc-9406-5d65-9225-8d365250e1a7.html
2. I was working at a local animal shelter. My coworker told me we were closing temporarily to go to a dinner hosted by the guys who work in sewage treatment. I said that nothing good could come of eating food cooked by people who work with human waste and opted to stay and clean up instead. Everyone laughed at me for being paranoid. They all came back with severe food poisoning. Wrote this as I was listening. Really relateable to that Sonic story lol.
2: a wise choice!

If it wasnt for his mom telling them the showing was too late and they should go the next day they could have been one of the victims of the mass shooting.

Lol, he built it up so well - talking about the dangers of the forest and how dark it gets... just for it to be a diarrhea dog that would have happened regardless of where they went.
even still, imagine sleeping sound in a tent only to have a loud wet fart wake you up
My mom had a really bad stomach issue during one morning and we also got stuck behind a slow car - if she didnt have that or we would have been any faster, we could have been killed in the accident that morning. It was so sad, I still have nightmares and stopped driving for six months
I opted out of a medical research trial that was for transverse myelitis and MS years ago . It was a small group of test subjects (12) divided so six got placebos and the other six got the real deal . They ended up having horrible reactions and long term health problems from it . That was one of the times I'm so glad I listened to my Mama and my gut
Kinda similar to the mud run story, I once did a similar Tough Mudder thing when it was near where I lived. Did it with friends so I figured even if I didn't win it'd be fun. Well we're the first heat and each heat has each person in their own lane. I'm not the worlds smallest man, so eventually I get to a part where wires hang down to give you little shocks as you run through them. As I get there, another friend has just gotten through. I stop because something about the wires feels different than the ones in the other lanes. My friend says it's not bad and not to worry. I worry, and call over an official. I say somethings wrong with the wires. The official brushes his hand on a wire and is thrown back like five feet. Yeah, they didn't check the voltage running through each lane; there was enough power in those lines to contract my muscles into psuedo-paralysis, let alone death.
Oh my god I was almost a victim of that knife scam as well. It was $17 pay and I even went to the interview but when the interviewer girl said we would have to find our own customers I knew it was a scam. My friend at the time told me later it was a scam as well. How the hell is that company even legal??
The same way all MLM's are legal.
A friend told me this: he was supposed to play a game called Ingress (pokémon go's predecessor) on and around a particular spot in the city he lived and just be absent for his internship duty. A nagging sense of dread came over him and he just went to his internship duty as scheduled. Skip to a few hours later and he gets news that a bomb exploded on the very same spot he was supposed to be playing at that killed around 63 people.
I actually have a story for this one. Not a life or death situation though.
8th grade class field trip. You were given the option to go to Cedar Point for the day or a local outdoor amusement park for the day. I took the latter option. Well those who went to Cedar Point had a worse experience than I had. The buses for the Cedar Point trip ended up going taking the wrong exit. After realizing their mistake, the buses arrived at Cedar Point much later than scheduled and, from what I heard, most people were only able to ride like 2 rides than ending up having to get back on the bus to go home. Needless to say, I had a much better time for a cheaper field trip.
Can relate to that Vector Marketing story.... had a friend who opted to do it - after he went for training he tried to pitch me enthusiastically. Sounded like he'd joined a cult. Haven't thought about it in years & probably one of the most extra things I've been exposed to. He had success selling to all his rich neighbours & family though....
Yeah I feel like it did sound like a cult lol, I was telling my friend’s mom about it and I realized I was doing that whole “dumping information” thing unintentionally lol
Robert Morgan I felt like I didn’t like it when I did the interview they tell you you’re not a door to door salesman but like what the hell is it aren’t you going door to door to sell must of missed their new alternate name for it
I was hired for a job as a maintenance electrician about 20 years ago. Before I started, the hiring manager called and told me it had been changed to an "assistant" position, not electrical. It was more of a janitor job than anything else, hosing down equipment and mopping floors. I quit that day, and started at another job I had applied for.
About a month later, the company I quit from closed. This was on the local news. All of the employees were called one by one into the office, fired, and escorted out of the building without being allowed to talk to any of their former co-workers. They not only got no severance pay, but none of their sick/vacation pay owed them. They didn't even get their last paycheck, the company went bankrupt. I'm told there was some problem with their unemployment pay.
I always click to opt out of emails and other marketing and I've never looked back. Last weekend a business associate of mine was killed in an avalanche of spam mail. He was a hoarder, but still, that's no way to go.
Yo this makes me scared to do basic shit in my everyday life.
Anxiety be like
One has to wonder if people have like a sixth sense about things when watching this video

Animalistic Instincts, really.
One time, I was camping with my family like we do every Halloween, and there was a massive storm. The camp rangers went around warning everyone that they couldn't stay in their cabins and tents that night due to the risk of falling trees, but they could all sleep in the main Lodge for the night. My family decided we were just going to leave, but almost everyone else moved their stuff to the lodge and slept on the floor in there. Turns out, in the middle of the night, the lodge caught on fire. Nobody was hurt, but that didn't end well
Not opting out but rather a case of lucky timing - i was on a cruise ship and it ported at Nice (France) the day after the Truck terrorist attack. I probably would have been safe anyway but a day can make a difference.
i decided to stay home instead of going on a school field trip. the bus ended up breaking down multiple time and the last time it did that, it wouldn’t work for 22 hours. people stayed outside in the cold rain for hours and others stayed in the other hot & humid buses. glad i chose the right thing.

Once I ordered my fav dish for me in an unknown restaurant in an unknown town.. . When the dish arrived, I got up to wash my hands.. And my friends gobbled it up.. . And guess who had food poisoning?
i was almost at the crime scene of a stabbing that happened at my University. I waited in line to get food from a food truck by the gym and there were picnic tables that were a nice place to eat sometimes so I thought about sitting there. It was really hot out so i decided to just go back up to my dorm instead. Minutes later a student came up and stabbed 3 other students after already stabbing one person at a nearby location, who later died from his injuries. He then ran into my dorm area and was caught by police (my roommate got a picture of him being arrested). I have no idea if I would have been stabbed or not, but I narrowly escaped the scene all because I thought it was too hot out.
Imagine turning your body so you could die to save someone else. That's bravery
I wanted to go to the Love Parade in 2010 in Germany. But I had to work. My brother wanted to go aswell, he got called to work when he was already at the train station. Different Jobs.
For those who don't know: 21 died and 541got severly injured due to a mass panic and horrible planning. The neighbours boy (~16) survived being trampled because of the dead bodies on top of him.
About 10 years ago I noped out when some friends wanted to go to an afterhour club after our regular night club.
Low and behold the afterhour club got searched by police that night and they ended up in a holding cell because they had some pills and other stuff on them...
Was also the last time I took anything illegal.
The expression is "Lo and behold."
Things are funny like that aren't they? We tend to learn through experiences like that. My friends and I learned to tone it down a little bit when we destroyed a back end of a jeep with some rocks and a 3 man slingshot. A total of just under a 1,000 dollars!!
I recall Vector. I wanted to take the job in high school just to get out of the house but my brother told my Dad I would be selling knives door to door. She's taking the murder weapon with her. That was the end of that...haha...Thanks Bro U saved me!!!

Went for my first job interview at a fast food place, it wasn't in a nice location,
but I was just looking for work. 3 weeks later I got an email saying I wasn't hired and 2 weeks after that the place got attacked by a customer. I have never been happier to have social anxiety that makes me screw up interviews.
Heard from a friend that when he was growing up, him and four guys from the neighborhood would walk through the woods past a vacant lot in our town. (This was the early 80s) They came upon a large drainage pipe spewing out reddish water. All the guys but my friend swam and played in the water weekly. He was the only one who didn't get some kind of cancer.
Man I still remember 5th grade Oregon trail like it was yesterday. At the end of the journey there were two paths to take. Basically decide to hunker down and wait out a storm, or forge ahead to the end of the trail. I was one of two that decided to go ahead, but after that- plot twist, we both had to shoot a ball and make it into some basket to decide our fate. I sunk it like a g, other kid missed. He froze to death, everyone else died from dysentery or ate eachother. I ended up with a small business and mansion livin large in the Wild West 😎
... sadly that’s still my biggest accomplishment in life
Target was coming to Canada, and I was in line to work there, but I opted out about a month before opening due to personal reasons. good thing too, as they closed shop in Canada around a year later and I heard from a friend who worked there that the management was pretty bad to floor workers, so lots of stress avoided for opting out
To that vector story I clearly remember some boy at our church doing that and giving my parents his whole speech and they bought a set from him just to help him out despite us not really knowing him that well. The knives sucked
when my mom was young and hitch hiking across Canada. she was with a friend and a couple. the couple were going to Washington, mom and her friend decided to go to Vancouver. When they got to Vancouver they saw a news paper headline about the couple being found dead on the side of the highway in Washington. Both shot execution style, back of the head. The killer still hasn't been found, and probably never will after all these years.
*Crosses off obstacle courses, holidays, skydiving, viewing platforms and hiking from my list of things to do*
Not me, but my Grandpa. When he was in high school, around age 15, he and his friend were walking back to his house, as he lived pretty close to the school. On the way back, two guys (that my Grandpa knew weren't the right crowd) asked if they wanted to go hang out. My Grandpa, knowing this, says he has to go home and tries to convince his friend to go with him. His friend went with the not-so-good guys instead, and ended up "borrowing" (stealing) his dad's car, getting drunk, and crashing the car. The former friend eventually died at like 30 something to smoking and the other 'bad guys' both either got sent to jail or died young, I can't remember.
This took me longer than I thought wow.
Not so much 'opting out' as just plain great timing. I joined the army in April of '03, but due to a severe case of the lazies in my senior year of high school, I ended up having to attend summer school in order to get my diploma. They set my schedule for training back far enough that I didn't make the cutoff for a Kuwait deployment. A deployment that was supposed to be only 12 months ended up being 22 months, and they didn't get back into country until the day before I left on my much easier deployment to Kosovo.
You're right 22 months with nothing to eat but DFAC food and Chili's isn't a deployment. That's hell.
Don't be a twat about it. Don't like my story? Fuck off and tell your own. I've no time for gatekeeping over something that happened 12 years ago.
@@mercenarychef9465 he's right though. You built up such a story but really you didn't dodge any bullets here.
Galf506: I didn't build up anything. I told a simple little tale about how my training schedule kept me out of a deployment that kept 60% of my battalion away from their families for 10 months longer than originally scheduled. He's the one that needed to get all 'small-dick syndrome' and try to one-up me without actually sharing any details. Nevermind that half of the guys that *did* get stuck on that deployment had just returned from Iraq before being rotated back out almost immediately. That's almost three years away from their families in ostensibly harsher conditions than the average person has to deal with.
I wasn’t born yet for this story
My dad was running in the Boston marathon and was finished and waiting in the tent. My grandma cousin, aunt, sisters and mom were watching. My sisters had to go the bathroom and so all of them left for it. When they came out there was people running and screaming everywhere... the bomb went of right next to where my family was watching
14:47 "wanna move into an apartment with us in the next town over"??
Me: 😑😑😑😑😑😑🤨🤨🤨 really.....while we are cleaning, huh??
This one actually happened just this week. I showed up Tuesday thinking I was to work, only for my boss to question it and me realize I had misread my schedule. Went home, came in the next morning.. total shitshow. EVERYONE on shift the last night had gotten a write up, it was so bad. Dodged a bullet.
I was gonna go to an ariana grande concert in Manchester, wanted to go to gymnastics competition instead.
I turned on the news and there was a bombing at the concert.
jesus christ, these fucking shootings
It was a bombing not a shooting just saying

Oh yeah, I'll edit it, thanks for pointing it out.
7:22 man the way that story was starting to look, Im glad it was just some kids getting dog poo in their tent. I thought it was gonna be a story about some kids getting lost in the woods and being found dead.
When i was 9 my grandparents deciced they were suprising me with a trip to florida before school started back... The whole way there i had this forboding feeling in my bones... I cried, i moaned, and begged them to turn around and go home bassically a tantrum all the way there i finally talked them into turning around at the state line as soon as we got home turned on the tv there was an alert about hurricane Andrew they looked at me and said from now on were listening to you about our trips
Supposedly my grandparents almost went on the titanic for their honeymoon
That would’ve sucked if they decided yes
You must be pretty old if your grandparents almost went on the titanic for their honeymoon. That was in 1912.
Your grandparents must be pretty old
Great grandparents, maybe. Otherwise your grandparents would be at least 116 years old today which isn’t very likely if you’re under 80
@@emilybarclay8831 honestly it might’ve been a joke on their part, I don’t really know at this rate
@@roddyaxolotl8519 it was probably a joke but it would have been plausible for their parents to have done that, but unless your grandparents have a time machine or you’re like,, super old it’s not likely lol
11th and 12th grade at my school.
See, before my school only offered classes up to 10th grade, but this was the first year they offered 11th and 12th grade through the IB Curriculum Program, which would mean we'd basically be the "Test" Class.
Additionally, we also had a mass exodus of teachers (I think 8 or so teachers went due to personal reasons) which meant our Headmaster had to hire 8 new teachers over summerbreak and get them to run through a further education course lasting all summer in order for them to get a certificate allowing them to teach in the IB.
And here comes the best. The Headmaster would change after summer break, so our current Headmaster was already kinda half-assing everything.
In the end, we ended up with 8 barely qualified teachers (some of them even refused to teach according to the IB curriculum, following their own curriculum because: "I've experience, bruh")
In the end, it all ended in failure. Not a single one of the students passed the final exams, the school wasn't allowed to teach the IB anymore, and to top it off, 1 year later, the school got closed forcefully by the country's ruler due to the new Headmaster directly violating a law and getting caught during an unannounced inspection ...
It all sounded like it's gonna fail from the get go to me, and instead of wasting my time with it, I just went of school and into University.
Today I went to sonic.
I always look at my food before I eat it , thank God !
the bun was moldy!!!!!
most people just unwrap a bit and bite thank God I'm neurotic!!!!!
I’m going to start following your example.
6:39 Jesus I've listened to too many camping horror stories...
I thought it was gonna end with OP's friends dead or scarred; glad that the "went bad" part was the dog shitting in the tent
Back in the late 80’s or early 90’s, my Dad was laid off from his job. After a few months on unemployment he was going to get a job at an Army base as a civilian contractor. A few days before he was supposed to start, his old job called and told him that he could come back to work that next Monday if he wanted, so he did. A few months later , the people who he was going to work with at the Army base were doing something with some sort of artillery (don’t remember the exact details) when it somehow exploded prematurely. Everyone around was either killed or permanently deafened.
So we just not gonna acknowledge that that dudes name was CertifiedPuppyRapist?
Its a rapist puppy, come on!
I remember in Egypt I decided not to go out with my friends. They went out together for a walk and got chased by a pack of stray dogs, no injuries lol but still glad I didn't go
I could've chosen to stay late at a party.. But listened to my mom to leave early...police endes up raiding amd hour after i left

In 1968 my father's enlistment in the Air Force was ending. His boss was so impressed with his work that he offered my dad anything he wanted if he would re-enlist. My dad asked to join a special unit (sort of the elite level for his job). This happened just before my dad went on leave.
When he got back his boss had his orders ready. All he had to do was sign. But while he was on leave he'd been offered an extremely good job near a town where he wanted to raise his family, and he was getting married.
In the end, though he was strongly tempted, he decided not to re-enlist. He got out, accepted the good job, got married and started his civilian life.
The unit he almost joined was deployed to Vietnam and though they were not a combat unit (they were engineering) the unit was ambushed and totally wiped out.
When I was supposed to go to Church, for some reason I didn't want to go so I didn't. I usually sit on the seat next to my dad(the driver).
When they came home I saw that the window next to my seat was completely broken. Apparently a rock (about as big as a hand) was thrown at our window and would kill me. What was even better is that a crazy alcoholic threw it. Sorry for bad English lol.
My uncle worked in a submarine. You can probably already tell where this is going. He woke up late and drove to the port but missed it by a few minutes. He literally watched the submarine leaving the port. That submarine went missing and was never found.
I’ve been to five different schools, each time when things start to go to shit, I leave and find a new school, never stayed in one for more than two and a half years. My first school had a change in head teacher after I left and it basically crippled the school. My second school got shut down 3 weeks after I left. My third school became horribly overpopulated and underfunded to the point where they were running out of chairs and ended up having multiple teachers go to jail. My fourth school ran out of money and pulled all its subjects.
I wonder what’s gonna happen with my 5th school.
If you don't go somewhere else, it will be fine, probably.
Maybe you're the one bringing bad mojo to those schools :)
I used to swim competitively, and managed to qualify to compete on a provincial level. For that gala, I had to travel to a different province. The coordinators for my province wanted all the kids from our province to travel in one bus and all stay in dormitories without our parents (bearing in mind I was about 11/12 at this time). My parents and a couple of others were like “Hell no,” and took us separately. The kids that went as a huge ass group weren’t fed properly, got no more than 4 hours sleep because of how things were organized (let’s keep in mind the fact that we’re talking about athletes), and many of the young girls were being creeped on by boys in the shower (and nothing was done about it). It had been forecasted to rain, and it sure as hell did, and these kids were stuck with no cover, everything covered in mud. Glad I noped outta that one.
I had a ticket for the Hindenburg but didn't go because my polio flared up
You know what else flared up?

Mmm that lateral move thing happened to my dad in the 80's. He spent all this time looking for a new house in the new city, then suddenly the company decided to get rid of the entire division and fired everyone. He spent 5 months looking for a new job. I'm assuming he got a severance package since we weren't homeless and were able to finally move once he got a new job. But it was a dick move on the part of that company.
“The Dark Knight” Oh..... ohhhh no that is not good..
that priest got a revelation, i'm sure xD
The vector one happened to me too! They put posters up all over my college, I texted the number once to find out more information. I immediately realized it was a scam and stopped responding. Then, without my consent, they texted me many more times over several months as well as somehow found my address and started sending mail to my home. Very unsettling.
Yeouch I never got any mail from vector, but yeah lots of texts and emails
Vector Marketing has actually gotten WORSE than this - I was scammed into it for a month, and they not only ONLY let me do market to friends and family first, but they also paid only $12/hr. Actually got money from a settlement against them
Jeez how did you end getting paid 12? I guess it was better when I did it cuz I got payed 20, only did it for two weeks tho lol
Abe Lincoln was gonna go with the Donner party... would have been a long winter for him. Might have been eaten. Wild
Husband - sweet, trusting, naive man - almost got sucked into a pyramid scheme. Came home going "I really think I could do this!" It was being sold as an entrepreneurship opportunity (he's always wanted to start his own business.) I looked up the name of the company he gave me and said hell no (nasty suspicious mind I've got.) I think he was a little upset with me but we're not getting involved in that.
Me and my sister were at a red sox game, then decided to watch the marathon at the finish line. We left about 5 - 10 minutes before the bombing happened
