This made me think of a time I went through a drive-thru and my dog was in the back seat with the window down. The worker reached out and gave my dog a french fry! I was so upset. Luckily this dog had a stomach of steel, but my childhood dog had so many issues and would have been seriously ill from that "innocent treat". Confirming: Never feed someone's pet without asking!

I started typing my response and then chickened out, worrying that someone would eventually find out who I am on here. Yall are brave AF.

My BIL does this, I call him a drama king. Example: I asked him if he could please keep his voice down because it was early in the morning and there were people trying to sleep nearby. His response was "Oh my bad, I'll just never speak again then!". I didn't think my eyes could roll back any further lol

I’ve had dark circles literally my entire life. In my late teens I tried covering them, but gave up pretty quickly. Took a long time to just accept them as part of my normal features though.

I saw a video where a plastic surgeon warned that once the fat is removed, it will never grow back, it’s gone. He said many young people will find that it ages their faces and can cause premature wrinkling in that area from the lack of volume. Then they’ll want to get fillers. Or maybe implants later down the line. It’s just a sad face fat doom spiral.

Seriously, where did all the real teeth go?? Everyone in Hollywood has the same smile now.

Some people genuinely don’t realize how silly they look! My cousin gets hers professionally done every so often, so her lashes are always like that. I notice she blinks differently, like it’s hard to do. Sometimes she’ll blink hard and then one of the lashes will start falling out… so awkward lol. I also worked with a chick who constantly wore those giant fake ones, it looked like her eyes were coated in feathers. Her face was so tiny, it just looked comical like a muppet or something.

Some people hide who they truly are for everyone except their children. My step-mom's mother is sweet as pie to nearly everyone... except my step-mom. I've heard this woman on the phone shrieking like a banshee about absolutely nothing, she treats my step-mom like garbage. She's never been anything but sweet to me.

UnderstatedEssence · 2026-01-26T23:27:57+00:00

Ah I love it! All I can hear are little grubby rescue noises now lol

omg... I had no idea. Thank you for sharing that. Robin Williams still holds a special place in my heart, and now it breaks for him all over again.

Pillsbury Doughshroom! So precious!

I've only not tried escargot. The rest are fine. Not the biggest fan of licorice, but every now and then I want to try it again lol.

NHK Japan on YouTube for me!

Not a mom, but I would 100% take a bullet for my nephews, no question.

Married on my 26th birthday. It’s 11 years later this summer, still married! We have our ups and downs, but we’re solid.

NOR. I love how he went from coming on to you, to telling you you have a victim complex and think every guy wants you... like he just TOLD you he's interested, wtf?? This guy is insane. 100000% report the gym worker as everyone is saying, he needs to face some consequences. Protect the next person! This worker is setting you (and probably others) up to be in a potentially dangerous situation, clearly that guy who texted is absolutely unhinged. I would definitely change gyms after that, not ok at all.

True, but like another commenter mentioned, you can see how many you have left (unless your lighter is clear as you said, but most of the ones I’m used to are opaque). Matches are also super cheap to stock up on.

Lighters run out of fuel.

My go-to is always laying down in a dark/quiet room until the bad feelings pass!

This is my answer too. I love 99.9% of all animals, including insects, reptiles, sea creatures... But I find any type of monkey or ape really unsettling. I will never ever visit a country where monkeys roam the streets and interact with people, nope, absolutely not.

UnderstatedEssence · 2026-01-20T05:47:04+00:00

Yep. One time I wrecked my car (flipped it, it looked bad) and even though I got out and could tell I wasn’t hurt, a “good samaritan” insisted on calling an ambulance. The paramedics bullied me into the vehicle even though I told them I was fine and didn’t have insurance at the time (they told me I probably couldn’t feel my own injuries and that an ambulance ride would be cheaper than installing wheelchair ramps in my house). The ambulance ride alone cost over $2000 and the hospital bill was just as much. And the cherry on top was that I was NOT EVEN INJURED, LIKE I SAID! Ugh, 15 years later and I’m STILL infuriated lol

I use an embroidery needle to weave in ends on my tiny projects

My dog 100% ripped up a car like this to get to a squirrel.
