A woman has taken to social media to slam the actions of men after a guy followed her for five miles... just so he could tell her she was "pretty".

As reported by Indy100, the video was shared by a social worker by the name of Kenny, who posts to Tiktok under the handle @buzzcutkenny.

Over the weekend, Kenny posted a video detailing how a male stranger followed her back to her apartment complex just to pay her a compliment. She captioned the disturbing video: "I hate males WHY WOULD THIS EVER BE OK".

Sitting in a vehicle, she starts by saying: "At this point, I’m sorry, but men should not have rights - at this point. Listen to what just happened..."

Check out the video below:

(Kenny did later clarify her choice of words in the comments section, saying: "I don’t actually think men shouldn’t have rights, holy s**t: y’all are just terrifying."

In the video, she continues by explaining: "So I just got home and there was a car who pulled up behind me, right, which is fine because I live in an apartment complex and that’s normal."

"But this car wedges itself between me and the parking garage, and there’s a man in it," she adds. "He motions for me to roll my window down, so I did and I was like, ‘Can I help you?’"

The male stranger then asks if Kenny lived in the building, to which a concerned Kenny replied "no" and that she was just there visiting a friend.

He then reveals that he saw Kenny at a red light, and opted to follow her for five miles just to let her know she is pretty. An understandably furious and concerned Kenny then asks: "In what f**king world is that appropriate?"

Amazingly - but perhaps unsurprisingly - there were actually comments from users defending the man's actions.

One TikTok user wrote: "He probably didn't want to cause an accident or hold up traffic. [He] just wanted to give you a compliment."

However, these sorts of comments were quickly shut down - with one person having to explain: "Men, listen to what she's saying. This kind of behavior scares women. This about that, next time you consider doing something like this!"

A second added: "All these men saying 'not all men' will change their tune when it comes to their daughters. But no one wants to talk about that".

A third bluntly suggested: "When you pass someone that is pretty or whatever... you just think 'she's pretty' and go about your day. You do NOT follow them to compliment then!"

And fourth commented: "The wedging, the interrogation and the stalking all red flags. Never have I wanted to meet someone so bad."

But perhaps what was even more distressing was the number of other women sharing their own stories about being approached in public:

Put simply: This is unacceptable.

While we've all considered ourselves unfortunate souls from time to time - plagued with a coterie of stubbed toes, lost possessions, and far too many drunken nights - there are some people who are so unlucky that we just assume they go around smashing mirrors and walking under ladders.

One such individual is a Reddit user who goes by the handle, TheFlyingPigSquadron. Last year, the Scottish woman shared her story on the internet, and what started with an everyday hair washing resulted in her being carted off to the emergency room. Read on to see how she ended up in a wheelchair, with a fractured ankle and a split head - but try not to chuckle too much at her misfortune...

It all began rather innocuously with the Reddit user writing, "So this morning I jumped in the shower and decided to wash my hair."

"I have very long and curly hair that reaches midway down my back. However, once it's wet the curls straighten out and my hair almost reaches my bum." 

Trouble quickly ensued, however, when the woman thought a spider had managed to find its way into her shower.

"So my hair is wet, shampooing done and I just need to rinse," she continued. "I tip my head back and flip my hair over my shoulder á la shampoo adverts everywhere. And feel something brush against the top of my bum. Being the mature and logical gal I am, I came to the one and only possible conclusion."

"Spider".

And it's safe to say that the Reddit user overreacted...

"With a scream a howler monkey would be proud of, boobs flying and looking like some sort of demented mermaid, I attempted to flee the shower stall. And promptly acquired a new skill; the ability to do the splits.

"This in itself was a spectacular feat of physics as there isn't actually enough room in my bathroom for a toddler to do the splits, never-mind a 5'9" half drowned rat. As a result, when my leading foot came into contact with the toilet pedestal, my body was launched back along the floor towards the shower. This left me wedged between the toilet and the shower tray."

Of course, it didn't end there, as she was then "abruptly b*tch-slapped by the shower door."

"One trip to the A&E later and I have a sprained ankle, a fractured ankle, two broken toes, a beautiful rainbow of bruises in some interesting places and a partridge in a pear tree."

Now, as if that whole ordeal wasn't enough, it was about to get a lot worse...

In an update post, the Reddit user revealed how she temporarily ended up in a wheelchair, and back in the A&E:

"So because I'm a special little unicorn my broken toes and fractured ankle are on opposite feet therefore I'm now rockin' a b*tchin new wheelchair (well not new, it's the NHS and it's Scotland).

"Also my flat is upstairs so it might as well be on Everest, so I'm at my parent's bungalow until my sprain is well enough for me to find another way to f*ck it up.

"I've had the wheelchair for about 6 hours now and have bounced it off every door frame in the house and scuffed two of the walls (don't tell my mother). After about 2 hours of me bouncing around like a ping pong ball my mum got the s*its with me and told me to go and annoy my younger brother, who is playing Xbox in the living room.

"So after letting him have a go on the chair and basically p*ssing about, he says three little words that have resulted in this update. 'Do a wheelie'."

"F*cking challenge accepted", she stated.

"I give it a go and end up tipping the chair backwards, arse over tits (which I'm sure would, again, be flying if they hadn't been secured in a locked and upright position) and cracking my head on the fireplace.

"I'm now on my back doing the world's worst impression of an upside down turtle with a cast and now a head wound. My 19-year-old, apparently adult brother is trying to crawl to the bathroom before p*sses himself laughing."

Thankfully, the unfortunate woman didn't end up too damaged. "No I haven't injured myself again," she continued.

"I've just split the skin which was fixed with glue and tape because apparently medical and art supplies are the same thing. I'm also back in the wheelchair as the very wise Dr felt 'crutches would just be asking for it.'

"He's not wrong I full admit I would have attempted to swing from them and/or use them as pirate swords. Though most likely both."

Well, there you have it: the unluckiest woman on the internet. While we're all glad that she didn't hurt herself too badly, I think we can all agree that her escapades were absolutely hilarious.

A company has revealed on Reddit that they have an employee who spends "one day a week" on the toilet.

Taking to the r/smallbusiness subreddit, the person wrote: "We have an employee who is VERY good at his job, but as soon as he gets to work he goes to the toilet and spends about 20 minutes there.

"By the time he's back at his desk and whatnot it's 9:30. Half an hour until he starts. Then he goes again anywhere between 2-3 more times during the day. Each for about 20 minutes.

"The FINAL toilet break is half an hour before he finishes and he basically spends the whole time there."

They added: "Each week he's working for 4 days and on the toilet for 1. We're seriously paying him an extra day to sit and s*** and read his phone."

He explained that for all the employee spends a remarkably long time on the toilet, they do not want to fire him as he's "good guy" who produces work to the required standard.

They added that the company is based in Australia where "strong labor laws" make it "almost impossible to fire him even if we wanted to".

After the post was made, people flocked to the comments section to give their two cents on the unusual situation.

One social media user explained that they had been "that guy" when it came to excessive toilet breaks, and it was because they had a then undiagnosed illness.

A second similarly wrote: "Is he salaried? What do you care if he gets his work done? Entirely possible it's an embarrassing health issue, as well."

A third advised: "If his work is worth more than he is paid, I would just let it go. Sensitive issues like this can turn a good employee into a resentful one."

A fourth wrote: "If he's very good and producing well then is it worth it to even care? If he's missing deadlines etc then bring it up in that context."

However, not everyone was so sympathetic about the situation and another suggested making sure that there was no way for the employee to use his cell phone in the bathroom.

What would you do in this situation? Give the employee the benefit of the doubt or implement a policy to ensure they aren't using bathroom breaks as a chance to slack off? Let us know in the comments!

There's a very simple rule to follow when it comes to making statements on the human anatomy: if the issue you're talking about is not one you have personally experienced, you're probably not going to know more about it than someone who actually deals with it on a regular basis. Cis men - we're mainly looking at you, here.

I'm not sure quite what it is about the female body that makes some guys think they know more about it than, you know, an actual woman, but it seems all too common an occurrence that random men on the internet like to pipe up with things they think they know about us.

Take this guy, for instance, who thinks he's cracked the math behind that experience which is oh-so-not-familiar to men: periods.

[[twitterwidget||https://twitter.com/aisghair/status/1102701038379909120]]

Obviously, there's a lot to unpack here. But let's start with the basics.

This guy thinks we get nine periods a year. Nine. With the average cycle lasting for 28 days, people with uteruses actually get periods more like 13 times a year - so that's just plain wrong, right from the offset.

Now let's take a look at this claim that the average period is between 5ml and 35ml per cycle... 'cause it's blatantly wrong.

[[twitterwidget||https://twitter.com/avasond/status/1103009343526629376]]

And, even if it was right, let's consider for a second that this dude thinks we can wear one tampon for 24 hours (assuming a period lasts seven days a week). This is incredibly dangerous. Tampons should never be worn for more than 8 hours at a time, as they can lead to potentially fatal TSS (toxic shock syndrome). Plus, it's totally impractical. Oftentimes, they become uncomfortable after a few hours, and can start to leak before that, even.

[[twitterwidget||https://twitter.com/maleficusuxorem/status/1103434686804574208]]

Now let's get down to these claims about tampon costs. This dude thinks he can cover a year's worth of menstruation for £20 ($26). Twitter user @ermahgerd_hi explains why that's a lie.

"Let's call it 5 days of your period (altho lots of people have 6-7 days)," she begins. "That's at least 20 tampons per period. TWELVE periods per year makes a minimum of 240 for the year. We're gonna add in a factor for people who change it more often than 6 hours. You'd buy 5 packs (320 tampons). By the cited $7.90 per pack + shipping, we get ~50 bucks."

This works out at about $2,000 across a lifetime - and that's the minimum. A lot of people will need to spend more, either because they have heavier/more frequent periods, have sensitivities to cheaper brands, or, you know, just don't like the discomfort of having the same tampon in for six whole hours. Oh, and let's not get started on the cost of painkillers, the money spent on new underwear any time a pair gets inadvertently ruined, or the wages lost when we can't get out of bed to go to work because of debilitating cramps.

Needless to say, Twitter tore him a new one.

So no, random internet man, we can't just lay off the frappuccinos and "stop whining", because this is a serious cost to literally half the population of the world. How about you lay off the mansplaining and listen to a woman for once?

[caption id="attachment_4461" align="aligncenter" width="800"] Credit - Reddit @keon[/caption] We've probably all had that job we wish we'd flounced out of in true style. The one we begrudgingly showed up for every day and did our time, secretly building up our private list of resentments against the boss from hell. Hopefully, for most of us, that doomsday scenario of a job is in the past, but I imagine most of us eventually left it by meekly saying it was time for pastures new and wishing that hated boss the best for the future. Sometimes it's just not worth burning those bridges. But these 30 people weighed up all the evidence and decided not to keep their head down and play it safe but to go for the adrenaline rush of going out in a blaze of glory where they say the thing they always wanted to say in the most memorable way possible. [post_page_title]#1 This Actually Quite Lovely Cake[/post_page_title] To be fair, not ALL of these entries involve someone burning their bridges with all their pent-up vengeful rage. This one's actually rather lovely. [caption id="attachment_4460" align="aligncenter" width="600"] Credit - Twitter @flackhackjack[/caption] It's honest, kind, compassionate and expresses something sincerely without resentment, and showcases their fine baking skills into the bargain. A superb way to quit! [post_page_title]#2 This Very Public Dressing-Down[/post_page_title] Jamie sounds like a pretty nasty piece of work, and like he thoroughly deserved any embarrassment that came his way from having his flaws displayed publicly on his storefront for all to see. [caption id="attachment_4463" align="aligncenter" width="600"] Credit - Reddit[/caption] My favorite thing about this one is that, despite all the obvious anger in the message, the employees writing it were restrained enough to use different colored pens to make it look more striking. [post_page_title]#3 This Masterful Error Message[/post_page_title] This one is possibly my favorite. I wouldn't even know where to begin when it comes to tinkering with the inner workings of a computer to make this error message come up, so hats off to whoever did it. [caption id="attachment_4464" align="aligncenter" width="800"] Credit - Reddit @assumetehposition[/caption] I like to imagine this popped up in the middle of an already stressful admin day in order to have the maximum disruptive impact. [post_page_title]#4 This Lovely Bottle Of Whiskey[/post_page_title] Another kind one, this - not only will it have taken a bit of time and showcases their design skills, it's nice to be gifted with a bottle of whiskey when an employee resigns - you'd think it should be the other way round! [caption id="attachment_4465" align="aligncenter" width="600"] Credit - imgur[/caption] Let's just hope the boss thought to read the label before drinking it and did actually notice that it was someone's resignation letter, and not just an anonymous gift. [post_page_title]#5 This Very Frank Letter[/post_page_title] For all that it's fun to bake a special cake or make a secret error message inside your boss's computer, sometimes the best way to make someone face up to their failings is just to tell it like it is. [caption id="attachment_4466" align="aligncenter" width="600"] Credit - Reddit @gahdzuks[/caption] Sounds like this employer deserved every bit of scathing honesty that letter delivered. [post_page_title]#6 This Illuminated Sign[/post_page_title] Fair play to this guy for not giving in to the temptation to swear. After all, a sign this big could easily be seen by little kids or easily offended types. [caption id="attachment_4467" align="aligncenter" width="800"] Credit - Reddit @peaceman582[/caption] Whether the boss did go on to change the sign himself, or just hire another disgruntled employee, is something we'll never know I guess. [post_page_title]#7 This Very Subtle Price-Tag[/post_page_title] At first glance, it'd be easy to miss the rather angry message hidden in this price tag, but for anyone who really wants to read every single feature, there's something there to be discovered. [caption id="attachment_4468" align="aligncenter" width="600"] Credit - Reddit @mastranios[/caption] I wonder how long it took their boss to stumble across it and figure out why their employee has been so absent recently? [post_page_title]#8 This Guy Left Stickers Of Himself Everywhere When He Quit[/post_page_title] This particular one was found on the back of a clock two years after this employee left. [caption id="attachment_4469" align="aligncenter" width="800"] Credit - Reddit @captaincatchem[/caption] A fun legacy to leave behind for yourself, but the real question is - why the lightbulbs? [post_page_title]#9 This Shelf-Stacker Who Just Snapped[/post_page_title] If you really want to make sure the people you work with remember you with absolute hatred, leave them with an aisle of hundreds of cereal boxes that all need to be individually turned back the right way round. [caption id="attachment_4470" align="aligncenter" width="800"] Credit - Reddit @SpikeBoyBebop[/caption] Or they could just leave it as is and let their customers feel dizzy. [post_page_title]#10 This Road Sign[/post_page_title] For my money, this one's a little mean. Ten out of ten for publicly venting your frustration in a stylish way, but hey, no need to take it out on innocent motorists, y'know? [caption id="attachment_4471" align="aligncenter" width="800"] Credit - Reddit @slappyjay[/caption] I wonder if he was fired because he'd pulled this sort of stunt before? Might explain it. [post_page_title]#11 This Passive-Aggressive Letter[/post_page_title] This letter does a really good job of maintaining a classy, detached, sarcastic passive-aggressive tone right up until the final sentence. [caption id="attachment_4472" align="aligncenter" width="600"] Credit - Reddit @leviathin[/caption] But do you know what? I think that last sentence really makes it. [post_page_title]#12 This Message In A Variety Of Marker Colours[/post_page_title] Another message where the writer contains their anger enough to be able to use multiple different colored markers, though this time they even have the presence of mind to mention it. [caption id="attachment_4473" align="aligncenter" width="800"] Credit - Reddit @downvotes___really[/caption] I assume the request for a reference was granted, seems totally fair enough, really. [post_page_title]#13 This Drawing Of A Dinosaur[/post_page_title] Full marks for creativity. Full marks for cuteness. Full marks for brevity and clarity of message. [caption id="attachment_4474" align="aligncenter" width="600"] Credit - Reddit @An_Arrogant_Ass[/caption] Zero marks for finding a proper piece of paper to draw it on as opposed to a receipt. [post_page_title]#14 This Neat Bit Of Revenge[/post_page_title] The best of these are the ones that leave their employers with serious questions they'll have to fend off from the public afterward. This one will certainly require them to explain their behavior. [caption id="attachment_4475" align="aligncenter" width="600"] Credit - Reddit @JordanAsshole[/caption] And good on them for keeping the tone so reasonable at the same time! [post_page_title]#15 These Twin Cakes[/post_page_title] This one might not have the embarrassing, passive-aggressive detail of some of the best of these, but you can't argue with the level of time and effort put into making these rather lovely-looking cakes. [caption id="attachment_4476" align="aligncenter" width="800"] Credit - Reddit @dudeperson33[/caption] I think the "Me Too" one looks slightly better, overall. It's those purple icing flowers that tips it, I reckon. [post_page_title]#16 This Boss Wouldn't Give Their Employee Their Last Paycheck Without Them Submitting A Resignation Letter[/post_page_title] It's fair to say this fulfills those requirements with the minimum of effort and the maximum of style. [caption id="attachment_4477" align="aligncenter" width="600"] Credit - Reddit @Swinging_Phallus[/caption] Waste of good paper, though. [post_page_title]#17 This Roll Of Toilet Paper[/post_page_title] What this one loses in legibility, it makes up for in imagination and inventive use of metaphor. [caption id="attachment_4478" align="aligncenter" width="600"] Credit - Reddit @Girlofgodsbadday[/caption] The guy's a decent artist, too. Hope he went on to draw many more toilets. [post_page_title]#18 This Sympathy Card[/post_page_title] It's always hard to know what to say when someone experiences a bereavement. A "sorry for your loss" card never really feels like quite enough. So it's nice to finally see one be given a proper purpose. [caption id="attachment_4479" align="aligncenter" width="600"] Credit - Reddit @springmint5[/caption] I dunno what the relationship between employer and employee was here, but if someone left this for me, I'd genuinely find it very funny. [post_page_title]#19 This Bit Of Rival Advertising[/post_page_title] Publicly quitting and letting the customers know how bad the bosses are is one thing, but recommending they go to a rival store is really rubbing salt into the wound. [caption id="attachment_4480" align="aligncenter" width="800"] Credit - Reddit @JeremyChrist[/caption] I hope all the loyal customers followed the staff over to whatever their new venture was! [post_page_title]#20 This Poem[/post_page_title] Honestly, from a poetic standpoint, this isn't great. The rhymes are a bit basic and unimaginative, I think. But it's the principle of the thing, I guess. [caption id="attachment_4481" align="aligncenter" width="600"] Credit - Reddit @Nickemmanuel[/caption] And in principle, it's pretty great. [post_page_title]#21 This Use Of Homer Simpson's Catchphrase[/post_page_title] Sometimes when the perfect words have already been used by somebody else, the best thing to do is just to use them again. [caption id="attachment_4482" align="aligncenter" width="600"] Credit - Reddit @I_Drink_Pee[/caption] After all, talent copies but genius steals. [post_page_title]#22 This Lesson On Time Management[/post_page_title] We've probably all been lectured by our boss on our time management once or twice. The opportunity to turn the tables is pretty irresistible. [caption id="attachment_4483" align="aligncenter" width="600"] Credit - Reddit @jeseely[/caption] The inclusion of the "Help Wanted Apply Within" sign immediately after quitting is a nice touch, too. [post_page_title]#23 This Sympathy Card[/post_page_title] We already saw a sympathy card used to excellent effect earlier on. This one is even more delightful. [caption id="attachment_4484" align="aligncenter" width="600"] Credit - Reddit @ThatsAGreatPost[/caption] Let's hope the boss hadn't had any real losses around the same time or this would end up being very insensitive! [post_page_title]#24 This Email Printout[/post_page_title] I think Angelina's quit in fine style here, with her head held high. What I'd like to know is - did she quit by sending this email? Or by printing it out and putting it into her boss's hand? [caption id="attachment_4485" align="aligncenter" width="600"] Credit - Reddit @heathbickerstaff[/caption] I assume it's the first one, but it'd be funny if it was the second. [post_page_title]#25 This Out-of-Office Reply[/post_page_title] A lot of people set up auto-replies when they leave their jobs to make sure any emails end up with the right person. [caption id="attachment_4486" align="aligncenter" width="600"] Credit - Reddit @keon[/caption] Probably not many of those auto-replies are quite as to-the-point and brilliant as this one. [post_page_title]#26 This Very Silly Letter[/post_page_title] This letter starts with an admirable professionalism and formality, then quickly descends into something delightfully silly. [caption id="attachment_4487" align="aligncenter" width="600"] Credit - imgur @iamchris4life[/caption] Spencer seems like a lot of fun. I hope he found a more fulfilling job after this. [post_page_title]#27 Another Illuminated Sign[/post_page_title] The use of the Douglas Adams quote is nice, though whether or not it has any relevance to the job in question isn't quite clear. [caption id="attachment_4488" align="aligncenter" width="800"] Credit - Reddit @JTsnidely[/caption] Maybe this was a cinema that paid its employees in fish for some reason? In which case, the perfect note on which to quit, really. [post_page_title]#28 This Lovely Greeting Card Design[/post_page_title] Ah, the old "It's not you, it's me" get-out. Always the easiest way to break something off. But sometimes it's nicer to just be honest. [caption id="attachment_4489" align="aligncenter" width="600"] Credit - Instagram @stumpedforwordsdesigns[/caption] The smiley face is cute, too. A lovely way to quit, overall. [post_page_title]#29 This Bill[/post_page_title] Whoa, Sally, whoa! Some very strong language on this one, and she seems to be taking out her frustrations on her customers and not her boss! Not cool, Sally! [caption id="attachment_4490" align="aligncenter" width="600"] Credit - Instagram @yugatron[/caption] Sally must have had a real nightmare boss to quit with so much anger. Let's hope she found somewhere nicer to work! [post_page_title]#30 This Fire Exit Cake[/post_page_title] Sometimes a picture says a thousand words, and the sight of this guy making his escape in cake form is better than any number of angry letters. [caption id="attachment_4492" align="aligncenter" width="600"] Credit - imgur[/caption] The icing looks tasty, as well.
