Man, oh man, it sounds like this uncomfortable situation is the manifestation of the guy's fiancée clearly not being over her ex. Maybe they rushed into things as well, in terms of having a baby after dating for eight months. That being said, the folks in the comments section seem to be in collective agreement that this new dad wasn't in the wrong for his decision to leave the delivery room.

You can tell from Cumberbatch's face that he'd rather be at home than participating in this elaborate trust fall, but the folks in the Photoshopbattles subreddit knew there was a multitude of activities he'd prefer. Fortunately, they went to town on this behind the scenes image from the set of Sherlock.
Replies this clever are pretty hard to come by; you've kinda just just gotta be in the right place at the right time, and brands like Wendy's - the absolute champions of the roast - know this all too well. Some of these people seriously deserve an award for their witty replies!
If you're a programmer and find that people's eyes glaze over when you talk about programming, or they don't laugh at your programming jokes, it's ok. There's a place online for you and it's called r/programmerhumor. We made a fresh batch of new memes from there to keep you laughing.

Scarlett Johansson has been making some impressive meme appearances this week on Reddit. A two-panel image of the actress from 2013's Don Jon has proven to be an excellent meme format. The stills features ScarJo looking pleasantly surprised, and is being used to illustrate everything from the male appreciation of breasts to bedbugs being stoked about the invention of beds. They're pretty damn funny. Here are our favorites.
Someone on AskReddit got a thread going about the common skills that people don't possess. Some of these might strike a chord, and make you feel better about the struggles that could be plaguing your existence. Struggles like not having the self control/awareness to know when to stop talking, or maybe something more intense like a condition called prosopagnosia, which is trouble recognizing faces like none other. These also might make you feel just a little bit more grateful for all the common skills that you otherwise took for granted.

Maybe you know what most of the words mean in that headline and maybe you don't. Either way, you should know today is a big day for a small selection of video game players.
For the first time since shortly after the launch of Destiny, Xûr, the mysterious Agent of the Nine who appears in different parts of the social areas every weekend to hock rare exotic wares, is selling the most powerful weapon in the game: Gjallarhorn.
Gjallarahorn (or Ballerhorn as it is colloquially known) is a rocket launcher and in the Bungie-developed shooter that's basically an MMO, it's really helpful to have something so powerful when bosses can take a while to beat.
The reason this is something of a bigger deal is because Gjallarhorn was a very elusive drop that became something of a necessity for seasoned players who ventured into Destiny's repetitive but rewarding grind day after day. For many unlucky people (myself included), the random number generator-based loot drop system employed by Bungie never gave up the Gjallarhorn goods. But today and through this weekend, they can purchase it with dignity.
It's a big deal. Hell, even Forbes wrote about it because who knows what their focus is anymore.
The Internet's reaction to this has been pretty fantastic. It was even trending on Twitter throughout America.
But the best reaction has been from the Destiny subreddit.
Mods there declared it a free-for-all holiday with a post entitled, "ATTENTION ALL GUARDIANS: TODAY, AUGUST 14TH, HAS BEEN DECLARED AN OFFICIAL /R/DESTINYTHEGAME HOLIDAY. IN THE SPIRIT OF "GJALLARHORN FREEDOM WOLFPACK PEW PEW BOOM DAY" THE MODS ARE BASICALLY DOING NOTHING. SH*TPOSTS, REPOSTS, NO-EFFORT, CLICKBAIT POSTS WITH MEMES ARE NOW ENCOURAGED."
All users on the site have been given Gjallarhorn flair next to their posts.
The banner image has been done up for the holiday.
And even the cursor has been turned into a Gjallarhorn for maximum celebration.
So if you're one of the unfortunate masses who have never heard the sweet destruction from a Gjallarhorn muzzle, head over to the tower, give Xûr 17 Strange Coins and buy one for yourself.

We love us some clever comebacks from the online world's spicy silver tongues. As long as there's a comments section or people insist on clogging up social media feeds with mindless tweets and statuses that could've used a second set of eyes, and a dash of logic, we'll have other folks waiting eagerly nearby, ready to light them up in the comments section. We've also got that gem from the legend, Stephen Hawking. Check out some more confidence-shattering comebacks and insults over here.
One a week the sketchyCrab will pick a submission from his website and draw the winner as a "hideous freak". Each lucky winner receives an email with a high resolution version to do whatever they want with (new LinkedIn photo perhaps).
Why you ask??? Because "people apparently hate feeling good about themselves".
It feels like a year has passed since we Americans received that $1,200 stimulus check. While some people used the payment to pay rent or keep themselves afloat in the beginning of the pandemic, we noticed that some of our geekier friends were committed to spending that guap and stimulating the economy. Not by making a few frivolous clothing purchases or decking their home-prisons with houseplants. Instead, these crafty computer geeks dropped that sweet government money on fresh PC builds. Bright lights. Coolant. Enough memory to run some serious games. While these concepts might be lost on many of us, they're basically a religion over at r/pcmasterrace. The subreddit is a home for people eager to share their builds with like-minded individuals, and has proven itself to be a wonderful source for highly specific memes. We've thrown a few of them together here, but if you need more, the subreddit is flush with 'em. And we promise they won't crash your computer.
