Emotions are powerful. So powerful, in fact, that they can feel like irrefutable facts and consume our entire being, blinding us to other perspectives. Even when they're more reasonable than ours.

Recently, Reddit user Mlkrs_maria posted a question on the platform asking others what the dumbest reason someone got mad at them was, and people immediately started sending in their replies.

From texting the wrong word to merely minding your own business, continue scrolling to check out the ones that got the most attention, and don't miss the chat we had with psychologist Dr. John A. Johnson. You will find it in between the stories!

35 Things You’d Never Think To Be Offended By Until Someone Else Was My ex gf from college got mad at me and didn’t speak to me for 48 hours. Why? Because she texted me asking if she could borrow my charger and I said “Sure” instead of “yes”. Apparently it’s rude to say “sure”.

When we broke up she texted me asking if I was happy leaving her. I texted back “sure”. It’s been 15 years and it still makes me laugh.

35 Things You’d Never Think To Be Offended By Until Someone Else Was When working at Walmart someone’s total came out to $6.66. I guess they were superstitious. They told me to change it by a penny up or down, but I couldn’t without them purchasing something.

I found stickers for $0.05 or clearance tackle for $0.10, but they didn’t want to buy anything. They just wanted me to change it by a penny. I told them it wasn’t something I could do, and I wasn’t going to charge them for something they didn’t purchase. I offered to split the order, but the didn’t want to carry two receipts. I told them they could just not take one of the receipts and they b***hed about that too.

They. Threw. A. Fit. They tossed all their s**t on the counter, started yelling at me, and ultimately left without buying anything. Wasted their own time, and breath for absolutely nothing other than a stupid anecdote I get to tell occasionally.

"Our mood or emotional state definitely has an impact on our perception," Dr. John A. Johnson, professor emeritus of psychology at Penn State University, told Bored Panda.

"Some people are more-or-less continuously high-strung, so they react negatively to many situations, including those that most of us would regard as trivial. But even people who are normally pretty levelheaded can become over-reactive if they haven't had enough good sleep lately, haven't been eating well, or have been under a lot of stress."

35 Things You’d Never Think To Be Offended By Until Someone Else Was When I was 14 my mother thought her 45-ish year old boyfriend was "having an affair" with me, kicked in my bedroom door(which had no lock) and tore into me calling me a s**t. I was still virgin and VERY obviously hated her douchebag boyfriend. I left that night with a garbage bag of my clothing/possessions.

According to Kandi Wiens, who is a senior fellow at the University of Pennsylvania Graduate School of Education and the author of the book Burnout Immunity, not only is the sheer number of people experiencing burnout higher than ever, but recent evidence shows that burnout is affecting workers at younger ages—and its effects are more debilitating.

Indeed, the 2023 Stress in America survey revealed that 67% of adults ages 18 to 34 say stress makes it difficult for them to focus, 58% describe their daily stress as "completely overwhelming," and nearly half report that most days their stress is so bad they’re unable to function. No wonder so many of us are overreacting during casual interactions.

I love telling this story.

I worked retail for 8+ years, so I've got stories. This one particular day, we were kind of dead. I was stuck at the service desk and this nice little old man came in and shuffled up to the counter. I smiled and greeted him, he returned the smile and explained to me that he wanted the information on one of the sofas we were selling at the time. His wife was stuck at home and he wanted the dimensions, the fabric type, etc.

So, I grabbed some receipt paper and a pen. I walked over to the sofa he was interested in and began writing the information. He stiffened and let out an audible "OH..." I apologized and asked if I had done something wrong... he goes, "you're left handed... you... are a *COMMUNIST*!"

He then shuffled his elderly butt back out the door and across the parking lot. While I stood there just like 😶...

I never got angry with him, but it was incredibly hilarious and out of left field.

"Also, people might be harboring anger over some past issue, and the 'dumb reasons' are not the real reason the person blows up," Dr. Johnson explained to us.

"If someone overreacts, I might want to ask them if there are other things going on in their lives that are stressing them out, or if there's something I've done recently that upset them that they would like to talk about."

35 Things You’d Never Think To Be Offended By Until Someone Else Was Walking along with boyfriend (now husband), I can't even remember the context but I jokingly called him ugly, he hit me with an equally jokey "nuh uh YOU'RE ugly" and we continued this childish back and forth for about a minute until a stranger overheard us and then got mad that we were being "so abusive to each other", even though we were clearly joking and laughing.

Dr. Johnson acknowledges that remaining thoughtful in these situations is often easier said than done "because when we feel that we've been judged unfairly, we might not feel like dealing with the person at all."

But it's important to at least try. "If the person is important to us and is someone we spend a lot of time with, we have to get over our resentment at their apparently irrational judgment and try to have a calming conversation with them."

I was very sick with some kind of stomach thing, and had been taking the smelliest s**ts of my life. My girlfriend at the time wanted to come over, but I told her no, I was sick. She came over anyways, and the second she walked in, she said "oh, I have to pee, be right back". She walked right into a bathroom I just obliterated two minutes prior, then got mad at me because it stunk so bad. Like legitimately mad, then stormed out.

However, if you're going through this list and can't help but think of the times you yourself have acted irrationally towards others, there are things you can do to keep cool.

"If you find yourself overreacting to a situation, you might keep in mind the acronym HALT [and ask yourself] am I hungry? Angry? Lonely? Tired? And then take care of the issue so that you do not keep overreacting," Dr. Johnson added.

I told him cows do not in fact drown through their a******s when they walk into water. Yes, he actually believed cows will just fill up with water the moment their a*s is underwater. No, I don't know how you could actually believe this.

I think I made him feel stupid but it's hard to explain cows can close their a******s without being at least unintentionally condescending.

35 Things You’d Never Think To Be Offended By Until Someone Else Was For dyeing my hair, even when I hadn’t.

First day back after the summer holidays and I’m walking into my classroom and my teacher would not stop watching me, glaring at me but I continued and sat myself down at my seat.

She kept her eyes on my the whole time, as the rest of my class arrived and sat down. It was only when everyone had settled, that she called my name in front of everyone, causing all eyes to be on me.

The first thing that came out of her mouth was, “You’ve dyed your hair. It’s lighter.” Not asking, just accusing and so she gave me an instant detention. I told her that I hadn’t, that it got ever so slightly blonder because of being out in the sun more but she shook her head and told me not to lie and then gave me another detention.

Obviously, I didn’t go, so I got more detentions for not going but I didn’t go to those either. It went round and round until she stopped but deemed me a naughty child.

I was 50ft away from him when it happened, but because I was the last one to talk to him before the wreck, in his mind, I was somehow at fault.

35 Things You’d Never Think To Be Offended By Until Someone Else Was A couple years ago a man angrily called me demanding to know why I had called him. I had not called him and was actually busy cooking when he called me. Maybe a year or so after that a woman accused me of stealing either her mother's phone or phone number. I'd had the number for probably a decade at that point so I don't know what that was about but I was having a bad day and we both got pretty loud and angry.

When I was 16. Dating a girl who bought me a mouse teddy thing for Valentine's Day - I thought, 'awe that's sweet, something different!' So I said, 'That's really sweet, something different! I love it's a mouse! What made you pick the mouse?'

And she went mental.

I made it SUPER clear I liked it, and appreciated it, and the question was a genuine, 'what made you think of that, it's so cute, how'd you pick it, it was perfect' question. But no.

So she took a 150 Irish pounds + of a vintage locket I got her, and threw it in a drain.

Nutter.

So, I don't know the reason she was mad at me, but I'm pretty sure that was the dumbest reason anyone had gotten mad at me.

Went through something similar. I was in a supermarket, paid for my groceries and headed toward the exit. As I was leaving, the woman behind me followed me and started cursing me loudly for "being ahead of her" (wtf?!) I suspect she had mental issues (and probably didn't take her medication).

35 Things You’d Never Think To Be Offended By Until Someone Else Was One time, a friend got really mad at me because I didn’t reply to their text right away. I was busy with work, and my phone was on silent. When I finally checked my phone, there were like 10 missed messages, all getting more and more upset. I replied as soon as I could, explaining that I was just caught up with work. But they were already furious, thinking I was ignoring them on purpose. It turned into this whole argument about how “true friends” make time for each other, even though it was just a few hours. It took days to smooth things over, all because I didn't respond right away.

I have partial hearing loss, not enough to be counted as a disability, but enough to be annoying as there's a frequency almost dead-middle of the spectrum I cannot hear. And there is a small subset of the population I found that their natural speaking voice sits in that part I can't hear, so no matter what, their words unless they pitch it up or down slightly are unintelligible to me.

 

Anyways, I'm working at a store doing whatever, and I can hear *Something* but it sounded far off and directed elsewhere so I just ignored it. Out of the corner of my eye I can see this old woman just staring at me with a pissy look on her face, I asked her if there was anything she needed help with and I swear to god I cannot tell you what she said and I was staring right at her. So upon asking her to repeat herself she stomped off in a huff and bitched at my Manager who (thankfully) already had witnessed this issue. I guess he played up the guilt factor that she yelled at a "Deaf" person (I'm not deaf) and she conceded whatever her point was on my behavior.

I have bilateral moderate-to-severe hearing loss, and even with hearing aids have trouble hearing. People get irritated quickly when I ask them to repeat what they said more than once. Once I explain I have difficulty hearing, some will try again, but others just continue acting annoyed. They seem to think I should just make myself hear better! During covid and the wearing of masks, I just gave up trying because I need to be able to read lips.

I had a girlfriend break up with me because she got an eye injury and I told her to go to the ER. She wanted to study for her final exam.

She took a projectile to the orb (unrelated to me). She was leaking vitreous fluid. (TL:DR That’s the stuff that isn’t replaceable.). She ended up missing her final and was furious at me about it. I probably saved her eye with first aid & prompt Dx. Didn’t matter to her.

Thst was a life lesson for me: even when you’re right, relationships work on the value system of the partner as well as your own. I should have acknowledged her priorities better, even if they were dumb.

Would do it again tho….

I had a guy like that once, who was then still stuck behind me for a good 10 minutes. 2 inches behind my bumper and honking and flashing his lights. I used to panic, now I just drive *exactly* the speed limit or just under it. He finally overtook me just before a bend, narrowly missed an oncoming tractor, swooped round the corner, and there…was a police car who pulled him over. I’ve never been so happy to see cops or laughed quite as much as I drove past him with a thumbs up.

I was comforting her because she was sick and her grandmother died. She told me that whenever I showed her compassion, she would get irrationally angry at me. Her words, irrationally angry. Kinda ended stuff between us, because she said she didn't know why she did, but couldn't stop herself from reacting that way, and it wasn't healthy.

That's someone who wasn't 'allowed' to be upset or vulnerable as a child and had their distress continually dismissed or ignored. Their subconscious value system is that if they can't be completely emotionally in control of themselves then they are failing and letting others down. So to them you being caring and nice and comforting them feels like criticism

I was in an abusive friendship/roommate situation.

Leaving the gym once, my phone was at 2%. I was starving. He'd only go through the drive thru if I ordered ahead. He got furious at me for trying to complete my order before my phone died instead of hyping him up about the great workout we just had.

I wasn't smiling when I saw him. I also didn't say hi (or anything else) before he started asking why I was so pissed off.

I didn't put away the folding chair when I went to the kitchen to get a drink.

I limited the weed budget to 1k a month during the pandemic when I was the only one employed.

I got him socks for his birthday after he'd made comments the last two years at every gift giving occasion that he just wanted someone to get him socks. That wasn't the only thing I got him, but I did get him socks.

I asked him to pick up ham when he went to the store after two years of doing all the grocery shopping due to him being unemployed.

I asked him not to add extra salt to my plate

I asked him not to slide my gaming table top across the floor.

I looked up a diagram of something he was verbally explaining because I couldn't visualize it.

There's more, but those are the ones I remind myself of whenever he reaches out wondering why we can't try being friends again.

Please stop using small retailers to change your large bills! I can’t take cash the rest of the day and my manager has to drive to the bank, inconveniencing many more people than if you just went to the bank yourself.

Sounds like they were angry at themselves for forgetting their blanket but had the emotional maturity of a potato so projected it onto you

For two weeks in a row, with each volleyball match that our group planned to have on the court nearby, this friend of mine felt the need to complain about my every mistake. Each. Stupid. Mistake.

Most of the time they were attacks in which I hit the net or sent the ball out. The more she complained, the more pissed I got. As a result, I made more mistakes too. Like that until I went crazy and asked her to STOP THIS S**T.

She stopped talking to me for weeks now. To NOBODY'S surprise, I started playing better. Her silence was a blessing.

I am trying to teach a kid that sportsmanship is important if you want others to play with you. We have been doing a sports incursion each week this term and anytime it's a team game he complains about his team mates, until they get upset and don't want to play. Then he complains about them giving up. So frustrating!

Got screamed at as a kid by my mom because I didn’t fold the towels correctly. I definitely folded them, it’s not hard to make it look nice, but I guess not folding them in a specific way in a closet with a closed door is just the end of the world.

My coworker called me and left a message asking for a ride. I didn't get the message and didn't pick her up. That was 2 years ago and she still hates me. I never should have broken my no rides policy for her.

In computing there is a concept of syn:ack. Basically you send a message (syn) and if it's not responded to (ack) then you assume it's not been delivered.

I “stole their camping spot”. It’s a designated spot in like 20K acres of BLM land and there’s, at least, 50 other spot. Somehow this designated spot with a little tent sign was their secret. The only thing that made them calm down was me telling them I was way too drunk to drive around in wilderness in the dark.

I k*lled a spider. I was at work, and this woman sitting near me started hyperventilating because she's arachnaphobic and a spider had just crawled out from under her desk. I don't have anything against spiders; they k*ll bugs that I find annoying, so I'm happy to leave them alone, but I thought this woman might pass out, so I stomped on the spider. This other woman from the otherside of the cubicle wall heard all the fuss and came around the corner to find out what was going on. I pointed my thumb over my shoulder at the arachnaphobic woman and said, "She was freaking out because she saw a spider." This other woman looked at me accusingly and said, "You didn't *k*ll* it, did you?" She was acting liked I'd stomped on a baby or something.

I said, "Well, I didn't have any live traps, so yeah, I k*lled it.".

Call me a psychopath, but I just scoop them up gently with my bare hand and pop them out the nearest window

There was a sticky mousetrap that had been setup, it caught a mouse one night. When my dad's girlfriend found it, it was in a different room from where it had been placed. I think it went from the kitchen into the the garage, which were right next to each other. I, as the youngest child, was blamed and yelled at, at 5:30AM or so on a school day, for moving it.

We had a cat.

They have so many petty reasons why people became upset at me, but I'll find one.


My aunt prepared food for me and my cousin. He became upset and said my food looked better. That happened a few years ago.

I had a girlfriend who told me if I wear my new Roman-Sandals at my moms birthday she will break up with me.

She gave me the mad looks for the whole weekend we've been visiting my parent's home.

We broke up soon after - I'm still not wearing these sandals (just because they are uncomfortable tho).

Well that guy's a bell end. If you want something done a certain way it's on you to say so. You don't wait for it to be made then complain that it's wrong and blame the other person for not asking how you want it.
