While we all need a fair share of news to keep up to date with the world around us, the truth is, we don’t always benefit from that emotionally. Quite often the opposite happens. What we read or watch or hear may upset us, leaving us anxious and irritated for the rest of the day.

Sometimes it’s the sheer facts that trigger us negatively, like Russia’s invasion of Ukraine or the dreadful plastic pollution in the oceans. And other times, it’s not the facts but rather the presentation of how one thing or another is told to us.

The headlines, for example, are notorious for inflating and misrepresenting things and we always have to take them with a pinch of salt. And even if we do, they may still frustrate us, as they did to people on the Trashy community on Reddit. Below we wrapped up the headlines that, according to people, have maddened them the most.

Price gouging was really rampant at the beginning of the pandemic. A lot of people didn't realize that it's illegal and proceeded to be all shocked when they got caught and arrested.

Not excusing people price gouging, but when companies do it, it's totally fine and we call it inflation.

some guy in Tennessee tried to do this with hand sanitizer, but Amazon and Ebay shut him down and the cops charged him under price gouging laws

People who did this should be named and shamed, pics of them should be shared online. Cashing in on people's suffering is disgusting. A guy in my city tried to do this and his info was shared on loads of local facebook groups, he was even shamed in newspapers, 6 months later he was in the same papers apologising and complaining that noone would buy anything from him and he desperately needed money as he'd spent every penny he had filling his home with essential stuff (like toilet paper, over the counter meds, baby care items like nappies and wet wipes etc.) People eventually bought some of the stuff but at about 10% of the retail price.

Don't know why you were downvoted, because you're 100% correct. Big corporations not only sailed through the pandemic with record profits, but many of them got government handouts.

The guy that tried this with hand sanitizer had his stuff confiscated and given away. They should do the same with these people. Capitalism? Not when you buy out the store and leave nothing for others.

I couldn't find toilet paper to save my life (thanks hoarders). We ended up having to pay $54 for 24 rolls of the sh*ttiest (pun intended) stuff available. Some unknown brand from Amazon.

When my son was 3, he managed with one swing of his arm to knock multiple bottles of lotion off a low shelf causing one to crack open and spill lotion all over. I was very much watching my kid. He wasn’t goofing off. Genuine accident. We (he helped, kinda) put the non-broken ones away and we went up to costumer service to pay for the broken lotion. It was a weird conversation. Me: My son broke this lotion. I think I’m supposed to pay for it. Employee: Do you want the lotion? M: No. E: Then you don’t have to pay for it. I told him which aisle so they could clean it up and we continued shopping. You are responsible for your kids and their actions and mistakes. Our family phrase is: Look with your eyes, not your hands. when we’re in public, at stores, etc. I didn’t understand why we didn’t pay for the lotion. Felt guilty. I very much don’t understand this headline, but I also don’t know what I’d do if my son broke something I couldn’t afford to pay for.
