Dear readers,

Regular readers of this site will know that customers lie… a lot! They will say whatever they feel they need to to get that refund, or that discount, or to get that employee in trouble just out of pure spite.

Thankfully, some of us are one step ahead of them and can expose them for the liars that they are, sometimes in the most satisfying of ways! Therefore, we have rounded up 24 such stories from our archives, which all satisfyingly show what happens when a customer is caught in the act of lying!

Taking A Leap (Year) From The Truth – This liar couldn’t take the heat (gun).

Piercing Observation – Please do not puncture the preteens!

Beverly Spills Chihuahua – Sometimes liars get what’s coming to them, and things get… messy.

Dear readers,

It’s time to continue the Not Always Right world tour! Last time, we visited India, and before that The Philippines and Brazil! Today, at your request, we are heading to that crazy island where a mega-technopolis sits next to beautiful countryside, where a perfect cone volcano can be seen from a high-speed train that whisks you across the country in a matter of hours… yes… we’re going to Japan!

Japan is an island nation, but is actually made up of 6,852 islands in total! However, of its 127 million inhabitants, a whopping 37 million live in its capital, Tokyo, making it the largest urban area in the world by population. It has a diverse history, from alternating periods of war and peace during its imperial times, to tales of great battles involving the infamous samurai. Today, it’s known as a leader in electronics, animation, whiskey, and cars!

To continue the Not Always Right world tour, we’ve gone through our archives to find 23 stories about, or set in Japan! We hope you enjoy it!

Watashi Whaaa – This roundup is off to a really… discouraging start…

Se Habla Japañol – This one’s a trilingual delight!

Dear readers,

For our readers in the southern hemisphere, winter is coming to an end. Meanwhile, between the oppressive heat and wildfire smoke, certain northern-hemisphere-based editors are seriously considering relocating! A couple of weeks ago, we posted a roundup about heatwaves. We thought it might help us if we sympathized with other people whose brains were slowly baking in their skulls.

It didn’t work! So, instead, here’s a roundup about the flipside of the coin; we’ve gathered 18 stories from our archives about people battling blizzards, rainstorms, and cold snaps!

Psychic Like The Night King – If your weather app fails you, there’s always windows.

Getting Heated About The Lack Of It – It seems that the laws of thermodynamics even apply to entitled jerks!

Being Cold Makes Him Hot – If you’re gonna be stupid, own it!

Dear readers,

A few days ago we ran a roundup about taking your cat to the vet! While you all agreed that this is an important reminder for pet owners everywhere, many of you wanted to remind us that every dog has their day, too, so we should run a similarly-themed canine equivalent!

Also, yesterday was International Dog Day! So, to make up for missing it and to remind you to take man’s best friend to the vet, here are 23 hilarious stories from our archives about dumb dog owners that both vets and dogs have to put up with.

So Dumb It Hurts – Gotta love those stories that make you question how the subject is even alive.

Someone Needs To Get Out More – At least the dog is healthy… and happy.

The Devil Is In The De-Tails – As long as the veterinarian knows what they’re asking for…

Dear readers,

Today, August 26th, is Women’s Equality Day! While traditionally commemorated in the US, we see no reason why the whole world shouldn’t be reminded that equality for the sexes is still a conversation that needs to happen.

This day was chosen to commemorate when votes to women officially became part of the US constitution – thanks 19th amendment! This happened on August 18, 1920, just over a hundred years ago! Sadly, as known by regular readers of this site, a hundred years haven’t made a huge impact on some people’s attitudes, who still believe that women should stay in the kitchen and focus on looking pretty for the men.

We’ve rounded up 23 stories from our archives about some seriously-deluded misogynists who get exactly what they deserve. Here’s hoping it doesn’t take another hundred years to stamp these views out of society!

Drywall Me A Misogynist – I don’t understand misogynists who insist women should look after the home, and then get shocked when they engage in home improvement…

Call Of Duty: Misogynist Warfare – Don’t piss off women who play COD; they can aim.

Now Accepting Immigrants From Femmerica – Wait… just… what?!
