Family is like Wi-Fi—when it's strong, it keeps everything connected, but at times, it can get weak or even (randomly) disconnect.
So since the holidays are getting closer and closer, we decided to put together a list of pictures showing how inconsiderate we can be to our closest loved ones.
Some depict simple everyday life situations and others highlight more serious moments but hopefully, they will remind you to be kind, cherish the little moments, and laugh together along the way.

My Brother Left My Original Super Nintendo Outside In A Box For Years
I’m actually heart broken. I left my original, working Super Nintendo and collection of games (that my late mother gave me) at my parents house when I moved in with my now husband. I assumed it was safe in the attic for the past 5 years. When I came home for Christmas this year my brother tells me it’s ruined.
He had used it at some point apparently, then brought it back to my parent’s and left it in the side yard in a plastic storage box. He said he'd "check on it periodically" but never told me it was there or moved it literally 20 feet into the garage. If he had just told me it was there I would have flown home just to move it to the attic myself. When he "checked on it" this year, the box had broken down and everything was ruined by water.
I’m so upset. Especially about the Dr. Mario. It was so special to my mom and I that I got a Dr. Mario tattoo the day after she died.
My 16 Year Old Sister Spent Two Hours Cooking Christmas Dinner And My Mom Wont Eat Because Shes Mad That My Sister Didn't Like Her Present

My Mom Took A Bite Of My Birthday Cake That I Bought For Myself
Yesterday was my birthday and to celebrate i bought 2 slices of cakes after work for me to enjoy, but because it was late i put it in the fridge to eat later. I was a little stressed recently so when I got off work today i feel happy because im about to enjoy some cake which i havent had in a while, but when i open the fridge lo and behold my mom took a bite out of them. Yes she knew it was my birthday yesterday, no i dont think she cared. I might be a little overreacting but im feeling more than a little upset over it. I know its not a big deal but its just the principle of the thing, you know ? My mood was immediately shattered.

Just Trying To Make Plans For My Birthday With My Step Dad
We don’t go out much, maybe go out to eat once every month. I invited him and my mom to 1 concert this year and the train ride was a suggestion for my mom’s birthday. All of those things he always insists on paying himself even though I offer money.

Sister Ate All My Jolly Ranchers. Ive Been Wanting To Taste Them Ever Since I Was A Kid And It Was Given To Me As A Gift By A Friend From America Since Theyre Not Available In Our Country
Back in the 60's my father was gifted a tin of popcorn from the states. We were all intrigued, as we'd never seen it before and wanted to try it. No, it was his, and sat in the pantry for over 2 years till my brother went 'stuff it' and cooked it in our pressure cooker (no microwaves then. There was lots from this one can, so we portioned it out and saved some for my father. He was incandescent with rage that we'd 'touched' his stuff and that he was saving it for something special etc etc, but come on - 2+ years with just leaving it there?
My suggestion (stolen from Killer Mike) is to Plot, Plan, Strategize, Organize & Mobilize. Revenge is so much sweeter than stupid old Jolly Ranchers.
Jolly Ranchers are the best f*****g candy in the f*****g world so shut the f**k up!!!!😡🤬

Mom Called My Job To Tell Me To Lie About An Emergency For An Event, Now I Have To Report To My Supervisor Tomorrow
I am in the US Air Force and my mom had called my tech school to tell my MTL that I needed to call her. I was in class and I get my phone every evening. Now my MTL wants to talk to me tommorow about the message. I just passed my inspections and supposed to upgrade next week. I literally joined to get away from her and now she’s telling me to lie to my MTL and tell them that my uncle got in a car crash even though it’s for my brothers graduation which I can’t go to because I have school and she knows that. This infuriates me so much.

He once left a bowl of instant noodles for so long it began to grow mold.
My Mom Popped All My Coffee Pods
My mom popped all my keurig coffee pods, almost the entire box’s worth because "they were too full and it was kinda annoying to close the drawer" I would have just put them back in the box they came in if she asked. They’ll all go stale now and she doesn’t see the problem.

I Was Working In The Icu During Christmas Dinner. My Family Sent Me Pictures Of The Feast And Were Saving Me Leftovers. Today I Received Those Leftovers
Not even a bun or a measly potato. I’ve missed a lot of family dinners in the past and usually they send me ham, turkey and plenty of sides. So it seems I was an afterthought this year. I know I should be grateful I got something but it still feels pretty bad.
I honestly don't think you should be grateful for THIS at all. It shows how much - or better, little - they think of and about you and that doesn't deserve any gratitude.
My Dad Kept Trying To Ring Me Despite Me Telling Him I Was In Class
My Husband's Brother Was Staying With Us. I Made Halloween Candy Bags For A Party & Said All Leftovers Were For Me To Hand Out To My Customers The Next Day. This Is The 6th Empty Candy Bag I've Found That His Brother Swore He Didn't Eat

I couldn't finish to read all of this... I was so irritated with people behavior... I know, I'm crazy because I'm disturbed by other people experiences but arrrrrrrgggg .. I need to go and touch some grass
I usually go to the comments first. If I see people saying what you said, then I know I don't want to read the post because it's going to frustrate me.
Load More Replies...We were brought up to look after other people's things as if they were your own. Trouble is, some people don't take care of their own stuff either.
Am I the only one who realizes how easy a lot of these are to fake? "They made a huge mess for me to clean up!" Or that could be your mess. "They took a bite of my cake!" Or you could have taken a bite of your own cake and just taking a picture of it. "My teenage sister made a huge dinner and nobody ate it!" Or an adult made a normal dinner and just took a picture of it before anyone sat down. Seriously, pandas, y'all fall for ragebait *really* easily.
This is exactly why I hate most people....including family. Most of these are family. 🤬
I am so sorry to all these people. I have never experienced anything like this. I was taught to be considerate... and while my family has had some crappy things to say about my life choices they still treat me with respect. These human beings needs to be removed from the Earth!!!!!!!
