This ’90s teen movie quickly became a cult classic, partially due to its seriously enviable fashion. So, what exactly is this particular fashion tech that was so far ahead of its time?

Here’s a hint: the star of this movie had been in other films before, but this particular hit catapulted her to a whole new level of fame. Something tells us that if we show you the next outfit on this fashion machine, you’ll instantly recognize the movie…

This machine was a part of Cher’s closet in the movie Clueless. Yes, that bit of technology was way ahead of its time, but it’s now an actual app that anyone can use on their phone.

Clueless writer and director Amy Heckerling has joked about those apps saying, “They should all pay me some money, I want residuals on that.” Amy may have been saying that tongue-in-cheek, but we definitely think she has a point!

This scene was shot in the actual place it claims to be in the movie — Hermosa Beach Pier. While many movies are filmed somewhere other than the location the story takes place, this film was shot in over 60 locations, all of them being where they’re set in the story.

So, where did this romantic drama take place? And who are the couple dancing in the screenshot? Here’s a hint: both lead actors in this film were already hugely famous before this movie came out.

Given that La La Land is essentially a love story about the City of Angels, it makes perfect sense that the movie was actually shot in and around Los Angeles. We may have tricked you, though, when we asked who the dancing couple is.

The truth is that they just played a small part and aren’t the main characters of the movie. The actual main actors — Ryan Gosling and Emma Stone — were both nominated for Oscars for their roles, and Emma Stone won!

This horror movie takes place in either a hotel or a motel — it’s your job to figure out which one it is. Given the very dated wallpaper, you’ve probably already guessed that this is an older movie.

The other thing we can tell you is that not everyone had a very good time on set. There have been accusations that this film’s director mistreated some of the talent, to the point in which one could argue that a lot of the actors weren’t even acting anymore.

Shelley Duvall played Wendy in the 1980 horror film The Shining but probably regrets the experience. Apparently, film director Stanley Kubrick wanted Wendy’s anguish to be authentic, so he mistreated Shelley on set.

He’d yell at her, insult her, and make her re-shoot physically demanding scenes (literally) hundreds of times over. Furthermore, Stanley kept parts of the script a secret from Shelley (for example, the part when the door is broken down with an ax), causing her fear to be completely real.

This action-packed film has a theme of vehicles attached to it. Don’t let the school bus deceive you — this is not a children’s movie. Since we’re talking about mature topics, one of the stars of this movie tragically passed away.

Of course, their work on this film is still celebrated today. This particular movie is part of a series, though, so what do you think happened to the actor’s character after they passed away?

Heath Ledger iconically played the Joker in The Dark Knight. Tragically, he passed away shortly before the film’s release. Since then, his role has been recast, as has the role of Batman (this is typical in superhero franchises).

Ledger was posthumously given an Oscar for his role and is still widely regarded as the best Joker to date. It’s worth noting, though, that many people blame Ledger’s untimely passing on the toll that portraying the Joker took on his mental health.

This alien-filled movie is undeniably a classic. Interestingly, one of the actors in this film is never actually seen on-camera — we only hear their voice. That person’s voice was heard by the movie’s sound designer while in a camera store.

After hearing that individual, the sound designer knew that this person’s voice was perfect for the role! It’s also worth noting that the individual probably wasn’t born with these vocals, but they enjoy the usage of quite a few adult products, which has impacted their lungs.

Everyone’s favorite alien, E.T., was played by a Californian housewife named Pat Welsh. That’s how E.T. got his voice, but what about his looks? Apparently, he was inspired by Albert Einstein, a poet named Carl Sandburg, and a pug dog.

Roughly 10% of the movie’s $10.5 million (approximately $30 million today) budget went to designing E.T. We wonder how much Pat Welsh was paid, given that she wasn’t officially an actress and was uncredited for the film.

The leading actor in this movie was already famous before he began work on this film. However, this particular role is often regarded as one of his best works, and it even won him an Oscar!

In this particular scene, the main character’s microphone is cut off, and the people in the scene can’t hear him. Likewise, the audience doesn’t know what’s said while watching the movie. Of course, the internet now has all the answers…

There’s a popular fan theory online about what Forrest Gump said in this scene. Apparently, Tom Hanks himself has fed the flames of this theory, leading us to believe that this was in the actual script.

“Sometimes, when people go to Vietnam, they go home to their mommas without any legs. Sometimes, they don’t go home at all. That’s a bad thing. That’s all I have to say about that.” That being said, some of the extras who were there claim that they don’t remember that monologue at all.

The two stars of this movie played characters who had a connection but, in real life, they didn’t get along at all. While it may not have been pleasant on set, the “friction” worked for their characters on screen as it translated into the energy needed for the story.

Luckily, the actors still maintained mutual respect for each other. One of them has even said, “One thing that worked beautifully was that it really was a teaching situation.”

Although Johnny and Baby fell in love, Patrick Swayze and Jennifer Grey didn’t get along at all in real life. It was Patrick who called working with Jennifer a “teaching situation.” He also said she’s “one of the most gifted actresses around.”

Likewise, Jennifer has expressed that if Swayze were still with us today, she’d tell him, “I would say, ‘I’m so sorry that I couldn’t just appreciate and luxuriate in who you were, instead of me wishing you were more like what I wanted you to be.’”

This room has a strange way of looking like it’s simultaneously set in both the past and the future. One thing’s for certain, there’s quite a bit of money in this movie — we mean that both in the plot and in the funds put into making the film.

This production cost a whopping $10.5 million and took roughly four years. Clearly, it was worth it, as the final product earned a staggering $146 million and got rave reviews.

The reason this set looks like it’s both in the past and present is that… well, it is! 2001: A Space Odyssey was released in 1968, but the story takes place in, you guessed it, 2001.

This means the film design was according to what people in the past expected the future (which is now also the past) to look like. What adds to this futuristic feeling is the fact that the special effects used for this movie were revolutionary for their time.

Clearly, this movie stars a young Leonardo DiCaprio. Given that we can all recognize the Oscar-winning actor, we can also figure out that this film is from the ‘90s.

This would make Leonardo DiCaprio in his early 20s here (so about the same age as the women the now-48-year-old dates). This was by no means DiCaprio’s first movie, but it was one of his more swoon-worthy roles. Sorry, we know that doesn’t exactly narrow it down.

This often-forgotten scene features Jack and Fabrizio running in their attempt to make it onto the Titanic. The scene that came shortly after that, though, is far more remembered as that’s when Jack says his iconic line, “I’m the king of the world!”

Apparently, that line wasn’t in the original script, but director James Cameron threw it out there as a last attempt to get the scene right. This just goes to show that some of cinema’s best moments are truly spontaneous.

This comedy/drama is about a dysfunctional family. The question is, which family? We’ll give you a hint, this person’s finger was injured unintentionally. There’s a lot of symbolism to it, too, as there is throughout the whole movie.

One last thing to help you decide which movie this screenshot is from is the answer to the question: would you want to be a part of this family? For us, it’s a no, but maybe you’ll feel differently.

In The Royal Tenenbaums, Margot’s biological father accidentally cut her ring finger off while she was attempting to bond with him. The wooden finger symbolizes Margot’s unfortunate inability to fit in with neither her biological nor adopted families.

Just as she looks different, she feels different, and a bit out of place. As is typical with Wes Anderson films, The Royal Tenenbaums is full of symbolic imagery and family woes.

This Pixar film is one of the company’s most popular works to date. On the surface, this story is a typical and sweet animated film for children and adults alike. However, there’s a widely supported fan theory that sees a completely different plot in this movie.

Many argue that the fan theory plot is extremely depressing. However, some see it as even more beautiful and heartwarming than the obvious storyline. So, which movie is this and do you think there was a hidden plot in the script?

The fan theory believes that Carl passed away at the beginning of the film Up, and his journey to Paradise Falls is quite literally a journey to paradise/heaven. This would mean that Russell is an angel who’s trying to help Carl move into the afterlife.

If he succeeds, Russell will earn his wings — a.k.a. Wilderness Explorer Badge. Similarly, this would make Charles Muntz a fallen angel who’s attempting to drag Carl to the underworld. Good luck ever seeing Up the same way again!

This movie is undoubtedly a fantasy film but it’s one of those movies that’s set in the real world and has fantasy elements — rather than being set in an imagined world. One of the main actors in this film said that this was their favorite personal performance.

This actor has said that their character was “very, very vulnerable, I think, underneath all of that stuff. I just had to work very, very hard.” Clearly, all that hard work paid off, as they were nominated for an Oscar.

Kate Winslet found it extremely challenging to play Clementine in Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind but she believes it was some of her best work. She said that she’d tell the director, “Let me know if I’m going too far.”

To which he’d respond, “Yeah, it doesn’t matter. Just do it, just try it.” Kate has said, “That was fantastically liberating. When you do classical period films, you don’t get the opportunity to do that. It’s a more subtle approach.”

This thriller/horror movie is about a serial killer who’s obsessed with the human body. While the story itself isn’t based on reality, it’s based on a book by the same name. The book is inspired by several true crime stories that have taken place throughout history.

The villain was based on several serial killers. One of them was a real-life doctor named Alfredo Ballí Treviño, who spent his life trying to rectify his dark past by helping the ill and the poor.

Other inspirations for The Silence of the Lambs’ horrific characters were Ted Bundy and Gary Heidnik. Many people cite the movie’s basis on reality as being the reason why the film was so successful — and so terrifying.

To this day, The Silence of the Lambs is the only horror movie to ever win an Oscar for Best Picture. Not only that, but it got all the “Big Five” Oscar awards — Best Picture, Director, Leading Actor, Leading Actress, and Screenplay.

This kid-friendly movie offers a bit of nostalgia and a look at things from a different perspective. This film is all about being small, and viewers get to enjoy seeing normal everyday things portrayed as gigantic.

In order to achieve this effect, oversized sets were created, and visual effects were used. Interestingly, an unrelated movie contributed to the success of this film. That movie is Batman, which was expected to overshadow this film — not further its success.

Honey, I Shrunk the Kids was a shocking success at the box office! It earned a whopping $14 million on its opening weekend which, at the time, was groundbreaking for Disney.

While the family film is a masterpiece in its own right, the fact that it was released the same day as Batman contributed to ticket sales. People lined up outside theatres to see Batman but it sold out quickly, so they’d go to Honey, I Shrunk the Kids instead.

This particular movie had to compete with another film that came out at the same time and was almost the exact same movie. Released by a different company, the competing movie featured similar characters, and a nearly identical plot.

It also came out within six weeks of the film in this screenshot. The two companies were in competition with each other, and the movie shown here is the one that won the war, making twice as much as its rival.

Pixar Animation Studios for Walt Disney Pictures’ A Bug’s Life was far more successful than DreamWorks Animation’s Antz, although most fans will gladly debate which movie was actually better.

The movies’ similarities were no coincidence, as Antz was pitched by a former Disney employee who admittedly wanted to “battle” the company, as he left on poor terms. Antz was a shameless rip-off of A Bug’s Life, which was already in production. Admittedly, rip-off or not, Antz is a fantastic movie!

Clearly, this movie takes place in outer space, but that’s really the only thing you can discern from this screenshot. One of the main actors in the film said that filming “wasn’t fun” as they had to spend four weeks wearing a 40-pound spacesuit in which oxygen supply was unreliable.

The actor explained, “We were mic’d. So you’d say, ‘Yeah, my air cut off. Roll really quickly.’” It’s possible that this costume issue was an intentional choice by the director to make things more realistic.

Matt Damon’s hard work paid off, as he was nominated for a Best Actor Oscar for his work in The Martian. It was certainly hard work, though! Not only did Damon have to contend with his uncomfortable costume, but he spent seven out of eight weeks of filming by himself.

The actor explained that he wanted the challenge of acting alone, as “so much of your performance comes from the other person. But, that was one of the reasons I wanted to do it.”

Okay, we know this is a superperson but is it a hero or villain? They fight within several superteams, but it’s up to you to decide if this particular group is made up of good guys or bad guys. For those who really want to know, we’ll tell you this woman’s name… Katana.

Katana is played by Karen Fukuhara, who’s largely known as Kimiko from The Boys. It seems that Fukuhara has a thing for playing characters with deadly superpowers who have questionable friends…

Katana is a member of the Justice League, the Outsiders, and the Suicide Squad. She was featured in Suicide Squad but, like many of the cast, didn’t return for The Suicide Squad.

She’s also in the Birds of Prey comics but didn’t feature in the movie. That being said, there are rumors that Karen Fukuhara will join the cast for the Birds of Prey sequel, although that’s yet to be confirmed.

We know this is Emma Stone, but which Emma Stone is it? Is this comedy Emma? Superhero movie Emma? Or drama Emma? The hair color is a pretty big clue, so we suggest you pay attention to that.

Here’s another hint: this movie’s script proved to be a challenge for Stone, and her colleagues often say that she’s the one who messed up her lines the most. Does that narrow it down at all?

The script for Birdman was written more like a play than a movie. This meant that shots were extremely long, like a play, rather than quick cuts as movies do. Therefore, the cast had to memorize extremely long bits of the script, as they would if they were performing in a theater.

Stone admits that “it was hard. It was definitely hard. And I screwed it up, quite a few times.” Well, at least she’s now prepped for a career in theater, if she so chooses!

This horror film was clearly made for Gen Z, as it’s tech-oriented and features relatively young characters. The film had a low budget of just a million bucks and didn’t acquire any A-list actors.

That being said, it did very well at the box office, bringing in $64 million, despite its mixed reviews. The movie’s success has opened the door for the horror genre as the film is, arguably, the first-ever horror about social media.

The story of Unfriended takes place online, so it makes sense that the movie didn’t have a typical production set. Instead, the director rented out a house and put each of the actors in a separate room.

The cast would then act out the movie like a play, meaning they’d film the entire thing in one go. Each take was 85 minutes long, and the cast would do several takes a day. And that’s how you turn out a serious profit from a low-budget film.

This romantic comedy is undoubtedly a classic, and it stars an actress who was the queen of this genre at the time — Meg Ryan. In a move that’s rare for such a lighthearted film, this movie had quite an impact on society.

It made a certain topic a bit less taboo, drawing attention to the fact that the experience portrayed in a certain scene isn’t an uncommon one. So, which of these movies managed to change the conversation?

That famous “I’ll have what she’s having” scene in When Harry Met Sally made people feel comfortable about being honest in regard to intimacy, and brought certain realizations to light.

Washington Post columnist Richard Cohen aptly wrote, “When the scene was shown to a Las Vegas convention of movie distributors, the men in the room did not react at all. They didn’t get it. The women, however, did. They laughed, and their laughter became infectious until, one by one, the men joined in.”

We’re not going to tell you what food this is but if you recognize it, you may just lose your appetite. This romantic comedy came out in 1999 and was quite groundbreaking for its time. The movie is largely credited for inventing a certain term that’s still used today.

However, credit isn’t exactly put where it’s due, as the movie screenshotted here didn’t actually make it up. The term became well-known a full four years before this film was released, but the movie did make the term popular.

The food photographed is an apple pie, and if you’ve seen the movie American Pie, then that dessert has likely been ruined for you forever. As for the term this movie popularized, it’s the acronym MILF — which stands for “Mother I’d Like to…”

We’ll just let you guess the last word. The term was used to describe Stifler’s Mom, played by Jennifer Coolidge. Coolidge claims that being labeled as the original MILF has allowed her to enjoy the company of men who wouldn’t have been interested in her otherwise.

We know, we know — pretty much every teen movie ever has a scene with a boy holding flowers. We’ll help you narrow it down, though. That actor is Ansel Elgort, and although he plays a 16-year-old in this movie, he was actually 20 years old when filming.

This wasn’t Elgort’s first movie, but it was his first time working in this genre. Furthermore, this film is the one that catapulted him into stardom. Is it obvious yet which movie we’re referring to?

The Fault in Our Stars is a serious tearjerker, posing a challenge for Elgort, who hadn’t done a drama before. The actor explained, “We would cry all the time. It felt good. I let it out.”

“It’s good therapy and releases tension […] I put myself in the moment during the tough scenes. Like when Gus is at the hospital and trying to visit Hazel and has been there all night, I’m tired and a wreck — I was emotionally there.”

With the notable exception of Les Misérables, Anne Hathaway is usually glammed-up in her movies. The actress often plays characters who are well-off and attend fancy dinners like the one in this screenshot.

So, which movie is the Anne Hathaway film shown here? Here’s a hint: this is a female-centric film with an impressive cast of mostly women. We know we’ve just described half of Hathaway’s movies — but that’s the challenge!

Ocean’s 8 was Anne Hathaway’s first movie since giving birth, and sadly, she was somewhat insecure about her changed body. Luckily, the set was filled with supportive women — some of whom are also mothers.

Hathaway gushed that she walked onto the set with her few extra pounds, and… “Sandy Bullock just looks up and goes, ‘Lookin’ good, mama.’ That made me feel amazing. Then Cate Blanchett’s like, ‘Nice jeans, Hathaway.’ Rihanna looks up and goes, “Damn girl, you got an […] like me.’” Now, that’s a compliment!

This movie takes place in two worlds, one which is the real world and one which is a fantasy. Aside from the obvious protagonists, this film has an unlikely extra character.

Admittedly, the thing we’re alluding to isn’t officially a character, and there’s no actor that plays the part. But, the cast felt this thing’s presence and believe it added a lot to the final film. In fact, one specific actor credits this object for some of the better aspects of their performance.

Kevin Hart credits the backpack he wore in Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle for a lot, even going as far as to say that he considers it to be a main character! “It just became the unsung hero, because everything is always directed to my backpack. That was my go-to for any improv, any comedy.”

Any fan of Jumanji can see that Hart’s comedic abilities really shone in this project. If co-starring with a backpack helped him out, who are we to judge?

This movie was directed by someone who’s really better known for their comedic acting rather than their work behind the camera. This individual stepped outside their comfort zone and created something that’s quite different than their previous work.

So, who is this mysterious director? And which of their movies is this teacup from? We’ll give one more hint, for those who are truly stumped: this particular movie was the director’s debut behind the camera, and they got rave reviews for it!

Get Out was Jordan Peele’s directorial debut, and it completely changed the way the world saw him. This teacup, in particular, was a major plot point. Spoiler alert! The stirring of the spoon in the teacup created a portal to the Sunken Place.

Peele has explained the symbolism behind this imagery by saying, “The teacup is symbolic in that slave masters used to summon house slaves using teacups.” It’s also worth noting that the spoon is silver, as silver spoons are often seen as a symbol of privilege.

No matter how much you love your family, there will always come a time when you’re angry with them. Even family can irritate you. But, you know what? It pays to remember that it could always be worse. You could have truly deplorable family members that treat you or others terribly. Today, you’ll be relieved to acknowledge that none of the people on this list are your family!

There are worse things than being rude, but nobody likes it when a family member does something unbelievably rude in public. After all, if you’re with them, you can’t help but feel embarrassed by association. Such is the case here.

You should never answer a phone while at the movies or at a play. You especially shouldn’t do it at a very reputable play, and that’s to say nothing about this father having the gall to be offended by his daughter telling him to turn the phone off.

There are many entitled children out there, but some are a lot worse than others. A kid that’s so ungrateful as to act bratty because they didn’t get a particular model of an expensive device is undesirable for any parent.

Of course, the real problem is the parent allowing this kind of behavior to happen. If the kid isn’t happy with their MacBook Air, return it. We’re sure they’ll change their tune if it’s that or nothing.

If there are things you don’t plan on taking with you when you move out of your house, it’s a good idea to pass them off to any relatives who want or need them. But, that’s only if you want to. Your relatives shouldn’t just assume they get stuff from you because you’re moving.

This sister-in-law clearly doesn’t feel the same way. The idea of free furniture is nice, but who said she could feel entitled to such things from her family just because they’re moving?

There’s nothing wrong with doing something nice for your family. But, there’s something to be said if you expect your family to incur financial losses just to do you a favor that you don’t really need. Everyone, even family, deserves to be compensated for their time and effort.

After all, boat fuel and operational time aren’t cheap. The cousin in this exchange clearly has no concept of what he’s really asking for. Otherwise, he’d know “exposure” isn’t going to cut it.

If you decide to share something like a streaming service account with your family, that’s nice and very generous. However, no member of your family should feel entitled to that account. After all, you’re the one paying for it!

So many people fail to realize that if they just didn’t act entitled to things, their family would be more willing to actually share or do those things. Nobody wants to share with a jerk.

We’ll admit, a waiter should be mindful of whether or not guests are done eating before trying to clear plates off of a table. But even so, imagine if you were at dinner and your grandpa stabbed a waiter in the hand with a fork over this.

Is there any sane person that wouldn’t be mortified? The worst part is, nobody said or did anything to reprimand him. We hate to say it, but being old does let you get away with bad behavior in some families.

Most people that have dealt with air travel have encountered an annoying child once, even if it wasn’t specifically a kid kicking their seat. When that does happen, though, you can’t help but wonder why the parent won’t reprimand their child.

Well, it’s probably because the boy’s parents are like this, who think that paying money for things means you can be as rude and deplorable as you want. That kid isn’t going to be learning good manners anytime soon with a parent like that.

Even the best couples get on each others’ nerves from time to time. But, healthy couples know to appreciate the efforts of their significant other. If you’re a little upset with your partner, just remember, they could always be like this guy.

Someone who isn’t grateful for the hard work of their partner doesn’t deserve that partner in the first place. It’s just too bad that so many people are willing to tolerate that awful behavior.

There’s no harm in asking a family member if they have some old things to spare for your benefit. But, there’s something wrong with rejecting what they have available and being entitled to something better.

If the guy needs a phone, he can take whatever is available. There’s a big difference in “needing” and “wanting” something, and the difference is whether or not you can afford to be picky about it.

If it’s no great trouble, you should be willing to help out family from time to time. But, family also shouldn’t feel entitled to your help in any capacity just because you’re related by blood. Clearly, not everyone thinks that way.

This aunt would sooner try and gaslight her niece into helping her than just accept the fact that she’ll need to come up with another solution. Read the room, lady.

It seems like people with gambling debts have the tendency to just spring those issues on their family. If you have a brother you don’t like, at least he probably isn’t asking for three-thousand-dollar loans from you because of his bad betting habits.

The good news is, no one is forcing you to lend that money. But, of course, some people would try to call you a bad sibling for not bailing out such an irresponsible person.

OK, so a boyfriend isn’t really family, but he could become family, so this kind of behavior would be a pretty obvious red flag. Apparently, he’s in a position to ask for a whole lot of charity from other people.

And apparently, a game console is of higher priority than clothes for his girlfriend’s kids. He may not be family yet, but if that girl knows anything, she should make sure he never is.

When it comes to gifts, there’s a lot to be said about making something with your own effort and handiwork. That’s very meaningful. But apparently, this mother-in-law isn’t happy with the idea, since the materials came from a gift card she provided to her daughter-in-law.

She fails to realize that, since the DIL used the gift card to make a gift, she didn’t use that card for herself. Technically, she still paid for it by way of using the gift card for something besides personal gain.

Some kids aren’t particularly close to their grandparents. But still, you’d expect them to at least know better than to publically slander their grandpa on social media — while proving themselves to be a selfish, spoiled brat with no decency.

Well, not everyone is intelligent. Suffice it to say, anyone would be glad to not have this kid as a member of their family.

When you’re a kid that doesn’t like to be embarrassed, having a parent who complains about every little thing is a nightmare. After all, that draws attention to you, which you don’t want. A lot of people had such a parent in their life.

If you didn’t, be glad that you didn’t have a mother that made both you and her look bad due to her incessant complaining in public. Nail salons aren’t even the half of it.

If you don’t have a sibling who only ever cares to talk to you if they want something, consider yourself lucky. Nothing is worse than family that ignores your existence until they need something from you.

It’s funny how some family members will treat you like trash, but still expect you to do them favors without a second thought just because of blood relation. If blood relation isn’t worth good treatment, it’s not worth favors either.

There are valid reasons to fly into a rage in public. Unfortunately, most of the people who do something like that never actually have a valid reason. This grandma went on a 15-minute rant complaining about problems she was solely responsible for.

Needless to say, that kind of behavior would be mortifying for any decent person. So be glad you don’t have this kind of person in your family — if you’re lucky enough for that to be true.

Nothing is as infuriating as a family member who will complain about things while still using them to their benefit. This aunt is apparently the type to criticize the food even while shoving it into containers to take home for free meals.

If you’re going to be the type of person to go to family gatherings just for free good, the least you could do is not complain about everything so much. Alas, that’s difficult for some people to grasp.

Obviously, everybody wants to get stuff they desire for the holidays. But, the last thing anyone needs is a parent trying to break down gift-giving into some sort of rigid formula that demands everyone provide a certain gift.

The person giving the gift gets to decide what they want to give. It really doesn’t get any simpler than that. If you lack a micro-managing family member, be grateful for that. Not everyone is so lucky.

Having a family member who doesn’t care if you lose money on their behalf is a terrible thing, and everyone should be grateful to be free of such family members — if they’re so lucky. Unfortunately, not everyone is that lucky.

If your brother costs you several thousand dollars, then ghosts you for years afterward, we think it’s safe to say that he’s a terrible brother. Anyone could be forgiven for disliking such a sibling.

The type of parent that forces you to undergo public humiliation isn’t the absolute worst, but they’re far from the best either. Most people would prefer to be free of this type of parent as well — the overdramatic kind that makes a scene wherever they go in public.

These people need everything to be about them, even if the attention they are receiving is negative. Unfortunately, a poor kid usually has to put up with the side effects of this behavior.

It takes a special kind of family to ask for a family discount from someone they mistreat. Imagine family asking for a discount, for things they’re buying for a wedding, when you aren’t invited to said wedding. It’s hard to imagine such audacity.

And yet, there are some people out there who are like that. We’re just going to be honest — we’re glad that we’ve been spared such terrible family members, and we can’t imagine anyone who wouldn’t be.

Compared to all of the other terrible family members on this list, this aunt is far from the worst. In fact, she’s pretty tame. She’s just too lazy and entitled to read, expecting other people to do that menial legwork for her.

She could certainly be worse, but having someone so annoying in one’s family still wouldn’t be desirable by any stretch. Besides, wouldn’t it be better to form your own opinion instead of trusting whatever someone else has to say?

This mother isn’t doing anything to her own family, specifically. But, being the type of person to ask for a cheap Audi with very picky specifications means she’s probably a handful with her own family as well. Signal theory, you know?

Either way, we would imagine a mother like this one being a problem within her own family. But, we can’t say if she is truly entitled or just laughably naïve.

You know how a cat can be entertained by something as simple as a cardboard box, instead of the fancy item that was in the box? Toddlers are a lot like that, too. They really don’t have the mental capacity to care that much about what they get as a gift.

So, having a family member that will get this uppity and upset about the quality of crayons their two-year-old gets would be incredibly frustrating. Seriously, the kid almost certainly doesn’t care at all.

Far too many people are familiar with the one aunt or uncle that only shows up once in a blue moon to ask for things. They often tend to be ungrateful even when you do provide them with things, much like this uncle here.

To those of you who had or have to live with such a family member, you truly have our deepest sympathy. To those of us who don’t have to deal with that kind of thing, we should all be immensely grateful for our good fortune.

The woman in this post is not a mother yet, but she’s clearly looking to become one, albeit by unconventional means. But, it’s pretty obvious that she would be the type of mother nobody would want in their family.

After all, anyone who can unironically make a post like this and actually mean what they are saying is… Well, let’s just say that they probably wouldn’t be the type of person to make for good family.

There’s just something about entitled family members and assuming that, if they need a favor, whatever needs doing is free. It’s like they completely forgot about time and materials when they need you to do something for them, and then they have the gall to be ungrateful for what you do.

We’re just saying, the best way to deal with family like this is to just never do them any favors. If they aren’t going to appreciate what you do, why go to any length for them?

We’ve all had the incident where a fast food joint accidentally gets your order wrong. If you’re still at that fast-food joint, it’s a simple matter to politely ask them to fix the issue. Unfortunately, some people don’t know how to do something so simple.

If you had the type of mom that would make a scene literally in a parking lot over a messed-up order, we’re so sorry for you. At least the child in this story presumably got to hide in the car.

Many people have that one relative that gets on their nerves. Eventually, you may snap and call them out on their problems. In a perfect world, you get to talk it out and come to a mature understanding like adults.

In an imperfect world, that family member may just try to buy their way out of making any real change, effectively just bribing you into ignoring their many issues. It’s better than no apology at all, we suppose.

It’s always a particularly low blow when you try to shame your family and friends into doing stuff for you. It’s one thing to do that to strangers, but you’d think there would be a bit more respect for family, no?

This person may want to raise money for a worthwhile cause. But, shaming your family and friends, and not very subtly at that, is definitely not the way to go about doing it.

You can’t get much lower than trying to use your family’s problems as an excuse for personal gain. This person tried to use her own father’s illness as an excuse to get free airfare, even though it was obvious she had ulterior motives.

To think that there are really people out there who would use their own family that way — it truly is deplorable.

We’ll admit, this scenario is a bit muddled. Of course, you wouldn’t be fond of your best friend’s ex. But, if your sister ended up marrying that ex, should you still refuse to consort with them at all?

Regardless, though, the sister that got married shouldn’t be trying to use guilt and shame to get her sibling to do what she wants. It’s never fair to try and manipulate someone in that way, never mind your own family.

In some ways, parents know better than their children. And in some ways, parents are massive hypocrites who do things to their kids that they would consider insulting or unacceptable if anyone ever did it to them.

This includes parents who believe children are not entitled to any privacy. We’re just saying, that kid should start swiping his mom’s phone out of the blue to see what she’s up to. We get the feeling she would somehow have a problem with the notion in that situation.

In some families, adults feel that they can bully and manipulate the kids however they wish — even if the kids in question aren’t their own. Usually, this situation occurs between an aunt and an uncle, or something similar.

Well, these aunts learned the hard way that some kids are smart and tough enough to not take crap from anyone, in the family or out of it. That said, the part about the cops is a little dubious; would they really respond to such a mundane situation?

Some siblings are your closest friend. Others are a huge pain in the butt that do little more than annoy everyone. The girl being described here is clearly one of the latter cases. There’s really not a lot to say about her specifically.

She’s just a bratty, insufferable person. Of course, she’s probably young. So, hopefully, she’ll grow out of it eventually. But even so, we don’t envy the brother or mother here.

One of the worst examples of nightmare parents is the ones who try to dictate your life long after you move out from under their roof. A lot of parents try to control the type of wedding that their kid has, which is infuriating.

We understand living vicariously through your children, but there’s obviously a point where it’s just being taken too far. The wedding is for those getting married, not the parents.

We’ve talked about some pretty terrible family members on this list, but there’s something special to be said about these grandparents, who allegedly decided to rob their own grandchild when said grandchild was five years old.

The sad part is, we know there really are some people like that out there. Seriously, we can ignore the rest of the post — what kind of adult robs a child in their own family? That’s beyond messed up.

If you hated being around your cousins because they could easily get away with horrific nonsense, you will probably relate to this post, brief though it may be. Many people know what it’s like to have aggravating members of the family that aren’t policed by their parents at all.

That said, we’re pretty certain some charges could have been pressed in this situation — locking a kid in a closet all night sounds an awful lot like abuse.

Sometimes, a family member doesn’t necessarily have to be awful to people to be an undesirable person you don’t want to associate with. Let’s be honest — anyone that makes dogs suffer for no reason is not someone we want to call our kin.

And honestly, why did this guy even get a dog if he wasn’t going to care about it at all? If he was just going to let it die in solitude and loneliness? It’s truly despicable.

If you had a sibling that was close to you in age, you probably have a few memories of being forced to share your possessions against your will. There’s nothing wrong with sharing, but forced sharing kind of defeats the entire noble purpose of it, you know?

Either way, no one is happy to have a petulant, demanding sibling that constantly gets their way because the parents are too lazy to do real parenting. In this regard at least, single children are lucky.

Any parent that uses the “I gave birth to you” argument to try and get their way needs their head examined. After all, having a child was a decision (or consequence) they made, for their own reasons. The kid doesn’t owe them anything for that alone.

And besides, once that kid is an adult capable of making their own decisions and going their own way, it doesn’t matter what they owe. They can go to college for whatever they want.

Servers in the US get paid less than minimum wage from their actual employer. It’s crazy, but it’s true. That means they really rely on tips to make a living. That also means refusing to tip them because you don’t understand how their job works is deplorable.

Sure — it’s not like you’re robbing them, since it’s your money, but a mother who won’t even listen to her kids (and who goes behind her husband’s back) is not exactly a role model to admire.
