I think it’s fair to say that we mostly love our families. But every now and then, they really get on our nerves . Part of loving someone is dealing with their flaws , I guess.
These people have some rather… interesting families, let’s just say that. I’m not sure if they should be grateful for the stories, or just downright annoyed. Maybe both.
“My brother won’t eat the middle of donuts.”
Okay, but why? This guys is missing out on a good chunk of a donut. And it’s not even like that’s the “best” or “worst” part of it; all parts of a donut are equally as good. And the middle of a donut is just…nothing?
“Kids Nowadays Scare Me.”
I think this is less “kids nowadays,” and more “spoiled kids are spoiled.” If I were that kid’s mom, I’d tell him too bad, so sad, unless he can find the one he’d lost. Just sayin’.
“A considerate relative of mine borrowed my car, this is how he returned it to me.”
Lending your car out is fine and all, but don’t expect there to be a lot of gas left. Unless you specifically tell them to replace the gas. Or bill them, I guess.
“My brother put this much milk back into the fridge.”
People who do this will always tell you, “it’s just enough for a cup of coffee.” Like, no. They just didn’t want to throw the jug out. Or replace it.
“Kid took a SINGLE bite out of ALL the apples.”
I guess next time, cut some apple slices for the kid, and keep the rest of the apples as far out of reach as possible. And then just wait until he grows out of that stage.
“The way my grandparents leave *used* napkins.”
That’s just… annoying, that’s for sure. I bet they thought they’d use those napkins again, which is honestly kind of gross. Like, just throw them in the compost and get new ones.
“My brother eats ice cream with a fork.”
This is the behavior of an absolute heathen. Someone who doesn’t care about rules, or society, or normalcy.
Either that, or this brother is only eating ice cream with a fork to annoy the rest of his family.
“The way my mom parks so the passenger cant get in.”
I guess OP’s mom just really hates driving with other people. Or she doesn’t want to step into that patch of dirt beside the driveway, and doesn’t care how the other person gets out.
“Whenever my one of my brothers takes a bath, they don’t let out the water. They’re both 13.”
I mean, at 13, I guess OP should consider themselves lucky enough that their brothers at least bathe. Still, that’s super nasty.
RELATED STORIES
“Parents had me come to school on senior skip day.”
I once went to school on a skip day. I basically just convinced all my teachers to play The Lion King on VHS. Fun, but at total waste of a school day.
So, I get OP’s pain.
“My parents went through my phone and deleted over 1500 different images and videos, and emptied the trash bin. I’m 15 and they haven’t found anything bad on my phone ever.”
Okay, there’s annoying, and then there’s downright mean. And it feels like these parents crossed that line.
“My parents thinks that this is an ok way to organize silverware.”
This is very strange, and very confusing. Was a cutlery drawer just not good enough? Did the parents want something more unconventional? Are they secretly evil? Who can say.
“My parents hung the Chinese food menu over my Awards.”
I guess these parents are trying to tell their kid what’s more important. In all seriousness, I’m sure they’re proud of OP, but they probably also wanted to have their Chinese food menu close by.
“The way my sister cooks her ramen and lets the noodles burn onto the pan then wants someone else to clean her dish.”
If you’re going to cook for yourself, you should probably clean up after yourself too. But clearly, some siblings didn’t get that memo (or don’t care).
“Parents searched my room for some reason.”
You know, if you’re going to search your kid’s room because you think they might be getting into trouble, the least you could do is put things back the way you found them.
“My older sister leaving chip bags out and open when she’s done. On top of them being mine, not hers, because she doesn’t even live here.”
This is when you change the locks, and don’t say anything. She doesn’t live there, after all.
“My Wife cleaned the new mirror with a steel wool, this is the result.”
Yeah, that’s definitely going to happen when you clean a mirror with something abrasive. Like steel wool.
It’s like she wanted those scratches in there.
“My wife just throws her kitchen scraps in the sink instead of the trashcan because ‘the disposal can handle it.’ The sink disposal is not a trashcan, right??”
The garbage disposal is supposed to be for bits of leftover food, not a whole meal. This is just bad for the pipes.
“My son put his toy golf ball in the bath tub drain.”
I bet he was probably really curious about what would happen if he stuck a toy in the drain. And now he knows! Hopefully getting him to not do that again will be easier than getting the ball out of the drain.
“Sister invited me out for coffee to catch up then does this.. I’ve tried engaging in convo.”
I feel like this sister’s idea of what catching up means is a lot different than what catching up actually means.
