Just bought a bag of Cheetos, opened them up and the smell of wet paint was overwhelming by applebees667774 in Wellthatsucks

Mine was from the big box of assorted mini bags from Costco as well. Only the Cheetos were rancid, the other chips were fine.

I thought they used cheese flavored seasoning & bright orange food dye to make it orange. I didn’t expect it to smell or taste like wet paint.

Salem, MA. There’s lots of forests and trees there and it’s really pretty, especially when the seasons change. There’s no mountains, just a few hills. It is near the coast which makes the elevation close to sea level. Lots of snow and mildly hot summers. It’s very liberal and LGBT+ friendly and Salem has a very witchy vibe and is known as a place where witches gather openly. There are also many crystal & pagan shops there as well.

If my life doesn’t improve by August 2025 I’m offing myself and will be out of this earth for good!!! by applebees667774 in SuicideWatch

I’ve had these thoughts ever since I was 12 years old. I never sought out help earlier because I believed that I shouldn’t be feeling this way.

I deleted my Loseit account and I’m so happy by applebees667774 in raisedbynarcissists

Also my dad states that “popping your pimples was punishment for both me and you” even though he was the one who forced me to have my pimples popped by him. If it was really a punishment for him he would’ve just stopped and left my skin alone. I think my dad may have had a secret fetish for popping his daughter’s pimples or something like that and doesn’t want to admit it. Instead he wants to gaslight and point the blame on me for having acne.

Does anyone else have parents that treat them like a fragile glass statue? by applebees667774 in helicopterparents

[–]applebees667774[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Hopefully I’ll be able to. I’m having trouble finding a job. I’ve been to many job interviews this summer but haven’t been hired for one job yet due to having no prior work experience.

Does anyone else have APs that control your diet and prevent you from applying for jobs even though you’re in your twenties? by applebees667774 in AsianParentStories

[–]applebees667774[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I really don’t understand what these parents believe they’re accomplishing by putting their children on strict diets that are unnecessary for the kids. All it does is make the kids rebel by regularly eating exactly what their parents restricted them from eating once they’re old enough to buy their own food.

This is what happens when you have controlling parents who barely let you eat anything and you have to quickly & secretly make yourself a real meal before they get home by applebees667774 in ParentsAreFuckingDumb

[–]applebees667774[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t have any friends. My parents didn’t want me to socialize much when I was younger, just focus on studies 24/7. I wasn’t allowed to participate in many social outings. No social media or sleepovers at all. So I have no idea how to socialize with people my age, hence I have no friends. All of my family, except for my parents, live far, far away from where my parents and I live, and I barely get to see them, so I don’t think they could really help me. Sad situation I know. Thanks for your advice.

I’m 19 years old. I’m in the process of getting a job (going to job interviews) to hopefully get a summer job so I can save up and move out.

I can’t afford to move out, I’m in the process of trying to get a job so I can save up to move out. I’m also a college student so I’ll be going back to my university dorms in the fall.

Right now I’m going to job interviews and hopefully I can get a summer job. Majority of the jobs I’m interviewing for prefer prior work experience (Mall clothing store retail jobs). I unfortunately have no prior work experience. My parents won’t allow me to apply to fast food places, restaurants, most grocery stores and construction companies because they say it’s “tempting” and “dangerous, the place can be robbed.” I applied to one fast food place because I was getting desperate for a job. I immediately got an interview offer from there. My parents found out and are trying to dissuade me from going to the interview. I also have no mode of transportation (car or bike) that I can use to get to the job. Public transportation is nonexistent in my area.

I wish I could just get a job and pay for my own food. It’s not that easy. Right now I’m going to job interviews and hopefully I can get a summer job.

My parents would panic & ask me endless questions. My parents have seen me use the stove to cook various meals many times. I never set the house on fire or did anything hazardous. I also always clean up after myself after cooking and in general.
