Life can throw all kinds of twists and turns your way, and most people take these changes like champs. They go along with what the world has in store for them, and they don’t question anything. They go with the flow, and they’re pretty happy with that.
However, there are also people in this world who aren’t quite as chill. They instead want to question what’s thrust their way, they want to push the boundaries, and they want to enact the ultimate power moves.
To you, merry Christmas
When you head to your family home, it’s easy to see that your parents like their house in a certain way. Their furniture has to be in its assigned place, their decorations need to be just right, and their whole house has to be perfect.
Because of this, one person couldn’t help but mess with their mom’s creation. Sure, their nativity scene was beautiful, but in their eyes, there was something missing. They needed Yoda to get in on the action.
40 years and counting
It’s pretty impressive if you’ve just reached your 40-year mark at your job, as not many people can say that they’ve worked in the same place for four decades. This teacher obviously wanted to mark each passing year with something special – so he whipped out his best outfit.
In fact, he continued to do this as the years went by, and in the end, he created something truly magnificent. This really is a work of art. It should be framed and hung in an art gallery.
Your number neighbor
Have you ever played the number neighbor game? The aim of the game is pretty simple, but you never quite know how it’s going to turn out. While you might meet a new friend and realize that you have lots in common with your number neighbor, you may also find yourself being owned by a kid who is 10 years younger than you.
We bet this had to hurt, but kudos to this 13-year-old for being able to play such an impressive power move.
Checking the goods
The key to life is to work smarter and not harder, and we have a feeling that this guy says this to himself every single day. While he could have put in extra shifts at work to buy his own washing machine, he decided to try out a power move instead.
He put the feelers out to buy a used washing machine online but wanted to make sure that it would actually do the job before he committed to such a purchase. His clean clothes proved that it did work, but he conveniently left the money in the car.
Getting some attention
Dogs are pretty funny, and while some of them are sometimes pretty independent, there often comes a time when your dog wants attention right there and then. They aren’t willing to wait, and they want attention straight away.
These dogs get the attention of their owners in various different ways, but this particular dog played the ultimate power move. They knew their owner didn’t want them biting the furniture, so it threatened their favorite chair. If they wanted to save the chair, attention needed to be given.
Challenge accepted
Many wives get pretty scared when their husbands are in charge of choosing something for the house, but it would be unfair for them to rid them of any kind of power in their home. This woman obviously thought that she was giving her spouse a seemingly unimportant job when she asked him to buy them a coffee table – but he took this as a challenge he was definitely going to meet.
If you ask us, this is the coolest table out there. If they don’t want it anymore, we’ll happily take it off their hands.
A new hobby
Sometimes, power moves can really change your life. While this person wanted to impress their crush who worked at a bakery with their own baking skills, they had no idea that they would fall in love with the art form.
Soon enough, they had perfected the most incredible sourdough recipe, they had grown fond of the smells permeating through their apartment, and they just didn’t know if they had the time to see their crush later that day. It was a big decision to make.
Please stand up
Talent shows are always pretty entertaining, but there can be a lot of pressure on the contestants to come up with something original and funny. While many people probably thought that this dude didn’t know what he was doing to begin with, he soon came out with the funniest power move known to humankind.
We’re glad to hear that all of the Michaels were alive and well during this talent show. It’s always a good day when the Michaels are checked.
Mind your business
One of the greatest things about the internet is that it’s so easy to come back with a hilarious joke when you see something funny. There’s always someone willing to make a new social media account, and this just goes to show that they really do work.
While everyone wanted to know why there was a literal cube of snow in downtown, the official social media channel for the literal cube of snow in downtown soon came back to say their piece.
Weirdly specific
The internet is a public forum that allows many people to showcase their power moves, but there’s no doubt about the fact that some of them are weirdly specific. Take this one, for example.
While we can’t actually tell whether this comment means that the person liked the song or not, they had some rather specific things to say about how it made them feel. We feel sorry for their neighbors, though, really. They must go through a lot of bread.
Taking advantage
Although some people can stay friends with their exes, a large majority of people decide to stay away – unless they want to meet up again.
Most exes hook up late at night to satisfy their needs and to be with someone they’re used to when they’re lonely, and it seems as though this person was ready for that to happen. They probably had no idea that their ex would actually just use the excuse to steal some toilet paper from their exes house.
Super important documentation
Kids are so innocent, and it can often be easier to tell them small little white lies than to break their hearts. This nanny realized this for herself when the boys she nannies asked her where she worked.
Instead of hurting their feelings, she decided to tell them that she worked at Chili’s – and this eatery soon came through with the goods. In one of the best power moves we’ve ever seen, this nanny even had a certificate to prove her little white lie.
What sauce?
When you’re selling something second-hand, it’s important to be able to bargain with the people who want to buy your goods. Normally, you counter a few different offers back and forth, and it seems as though this seller was willing to be flexible with their price.
However, if they really wanted a sale, the potential buyer was going to have to put a little something-something extra into the mix. They were pretty hungry, so they wanted some McNuggets in their life.
Flagged and reported
People are pretty entitled in this life, and they believe that everything should just be handed to them on a silver platter. This seller obviously didn’t have time for someone who was questioning every single aspect of their sale and demanding the iPhone be sold to them.
In the end, the potential buyer decided to flag and report them – but the seller came back with their own counter offer. They opted to post their phone number into a very specific group.
A favorite book
Although kids haven’t been on this planet as long as the adults who live on Earth, some of them are wiser beyond their time – and they’re also pretty powerful. They know what can really rile other people up, and they use this power to their advantage.
Child number four knew how important this particular piece of marketing was to the person asking them, so they decided to have a little fun with it. You know, unless the Chipotle Employee Handbook really is their favorite book.
A pick-up line
If you have ever used online dating apps, you’ll know that you really need to get the attention of your matches to stand out from the crowd. In some cases, it might even be a good idea to play a power move to watch them fall into your arms.
While this match thought that they were simply throwing song lyrics back and forth, the reality of this situation was that they were using these lyrics as the ultimate pick-up line. Would this work on you?
Workplace Karen
Much like how you can’t choose your family, you also can’t choose the coworkers you have to see in the office every day in corporate jobs. Sometimes you click and really find your people, but sometimes you really can’t stand them.
This one tried to steal someone’s work, but they had no idea that the whole encounter was being recorded and played straight to the boss. Karen from accounting didn’t last long.
Sugar Baby
Sugar babies are pretty controversial, but regardless of how you feel about them, Demanda got the last laugh with her “appreciation post” after her incredibly toxic relationship with Brad ended badly. He even cut her out of his will when he passed!
We bet Brad is shaking in his grave knowing that his precious sugar baby was leading a double life the whole time. Maybe he’ll finally stop haunting her.
Plot Twist
Imagine getting fooled by some school children for seven years. Sometimes, people underestimate the creativity and resourcefulness of children. Believe it or not, kids are way more creative than adults, as they don’t have all the stress and anxiety about their life yet. Nonetheless, this was definitely an interesting turn of events.
We are wondering what kind of interesting conversation and secret information those school children must have heard over the seven years it hung there. This definitely, without a doubt, is one of the best “outstanding move” moments of all time.
Go Off, Grandpa!
Our grandparents are amazing. They’re wise and kind, and often, it’s easy to forget that they are regular people too. This grandson tried to take advantage of his grandfather’s hobby and ask for a special present for a special recreational activity.
If the grandson is going to underestimate his grandfather, then he’ll just have to be happy receiving whatever his grandfather decides to give him. He’s in for quite a surprise.
A trip to the park
Moms are pretty great, and there’s no doubt about the fact that they have their children’s best interests at the forefront of everything they do. However, it’s fair to say that they often use their power to enact various moves that make their kids a little uncomfortable.
When this person heard that their mom was going to the dog park, they didn’t think anything of it. Before they knew it, though, their mom was trying to bag them a boyfriend.
What should I get?
Most moms are against tattoos, but this mom was a little more diplomatic in her answer. Although she knew that she couldn’t stop her kid from getting inked, she wanted to make sure that their tattoo said something important. Well, you can’t deny that the end result was something pretty important.
We have a feeling that their mom probably wouldn’t have appreciated this inking, but at least it’s a funny story to remember as they get older. It might take a while to become funny to her, though.
Working around it
You’re in a pretty decent situation if you find a landlord who is willing to pay your electric bills, but it seems as though this landlord didn’t want to pay too much when the cold frost came in. So, they turned down the heat in their tenants’ apartment and hoped that they would be able to deal with it.
Of course, nobody should have to survive in these cold temperatures, so this tenant decided to play a power move and showcase their genius mind at the same time.
Getting in the way
According to our research, kids learn how to play these awesome power moves from a young age. You just need to look at these kids to see that for yourself. When the two older kids wanted to work quietly on their cards, they couldn’t deal with their younger brother getting involved.
They wanted some peace and quiet, which meant that they needed to take matters into their own hands. In the end, they opted for some duct tape and a dining chair.
Across the ocean
It’s amazing how different the world can be across the ocean, and this is certainly true when you compare the United Kingdom to the United States. The food in both of these countries couldn’t be more different, especially when you look at portion sizes.
The people in the US seem to eat a lot more, which works as an efficient power move for UK citizens who travel to the US. After all, they can save some serious dollars by just ordering off the kids’ menu.
Are you thirsty?
People are always trying to call out fast food chains on social media, but it seems as though these companies have since brought on their own powerful social media team to fight back when these comments come through.
While this person wanted to deter anyone from buying spicy chicken nuggets from Wendy’s, this fast food chain wanted to let them know that yes, they could do that, and they would provide them with something to quench their thirst at the same time if they wanted.
Ain’t even mad
While people can sometimes go a little overboard with the power that they have, there are other people who really do have to be congratulated. Sometimes, they come up with genius ideas that go undetected – and they’re awesome.
Take this person, for example. Instead of paying for their own Netflix account, they decided to use their exes account and disguise the fact that they had been using it. We might have to steal this idea because we’re not even mad about it either.
Man of his word
People have some strange goals they put on their bucket list, and it’s clear to see that this man wanted to get 1,000 upvotes on this particular picture. While this doesn’t mean a lot to everyone, it seems as though they all wanted to see him win the challenge and delete his account.
It was good for them to see that he was a man of his word, as he deleted his account as soon as the picture got over 1,000 votes.
The right timing
If you have an ex that’s been using your Netflix account for a while now, you may have been searching for the right time to change your password and lock them out completely.
You may have been holding off because you still held a torch for them, or because it just didn’t really affect your life in any way. However, this woman wanted to lock her ex out, so she decided that a national lockdown was the perfect timing to do it.
