I recovered fine, but I'm still salty that I contracted a potentially fatal vaccine-preventable illness.

30 Incidents From People’s Past That Were So Bitter That They Remember It To This Day There were two things I wanted as a kid:

Lucky Charms for breakfast.

A video game console (at my age this would've been either an Atari 2600 or an NES).

Never got them, but that was okay. I grew up and went to college. I come home for winter break to find my little brother sitting at the breakfast table happily munching away on Lucky-f**king-Charms.

Okay, no biggie. I get to eat them now too.

So Christmas rolls around, and what does my little brother unwrap? An N64.

For as long as I could remember I heard, "sugar cereals are bad for you" and "video games will melt your brain" from my parents, but the MINUTE I'm outta the house, all that ceases to apply to my little brother.

Granted. I enjoyed the N64 and sugary cereals with him when I was home from college, but at 43 I am still salty over this s**t.

30 Incidents From People’s Past That Were So Bitter That They Remember It To This Day In 2005, I was starting seventh grade. On the first day of class, all of the teachers handed out surveys to get to know you. They wanted to know what your interests were, mostly.

One teacher asked what kinds of books every one liked. I wrote "Dystopian sci-fi." I was actually marked off points because "dystopian' was not a word.

Not only was I marked off points on a getting-to-know-you activity on the first day of class, but dystopian science fiction is basically the most popular genre of YA novels.

It's 13 years later, I have a college degree, a full-time salaried job, and a still a ton of salt about that one. I can't remember the teacher's name at all, but by f*****g god I will never let that one go.

30 Incidents From People’s Past That Were So Bitter That They Remember It To This Day This one time as a kid when my father and his second wife and myself were in the car together, driving home, and they stopped at Taco Bell on the way there and bought two apple pies (empanadas) just for themselves and didn't buy me one. Didn't ask me if I wanted one, didn't tell me "no" or why, "kiss my grits", or anything. Didn't even turn their heads to look in the backseat, just had a little chat there in the front, pulled into the drive-through, bought two damn apple pies just for them, and went on home like I wasn't even there.

EDIT: I appreciate all the shared experiences and compassion. Thanks, Reddit. I don't think they thought I was asleep, to address a common question, that was not something I would typically do in the car; this kind of thing was par for the course for my father, who is notoriously selfish, and both my stepmothers, this particular occasion is just one small thing that's emblematic of a larger problem. I leave you with this: love is not selfish, it thinks of others.

In kindergarten (and now), I was kind of a space cadet. I was always in my own world doing whatever. One particular day while pretending to be an astronaut, I bumped into this kid Todd. Todd got angry at me for bumping into him and bit my hand. Having not learned that snitches get stitches, I told the yard duty lady. However, I was the only white kid in kindergarten and my Chinese wasn't good yet. When the woman brought Todd over he was able to talk circles around me and convinced the woman I bit my own hand to frame him. She put us both on time out together, and guess what f*****g Todd did? He bit his own hand, screamed, and yelled for the yard duty. He then lied and told her I had bit him. He got off scott free while I had to stay in the class room during recess and lunch for the next two weeks. F**k Todd

30 Incidents From People’s Past That Were So Bitter That They Remember It To This Day The list is long...but distinguished.

One of the more petty ones:
In grad school our cohort (40 of us) took a trip abroad to study international development. We went to a Caribbean island and traveled around the country side, visiting small towns, compounds, etc.

We stayed in a certain small town for a couple days and part of the task was to partner up with someone, develop a business idea for the community and a sales pitch for it to present to business leaders.

We spent time in the community talking to the people who live there about what they want, what they need etc. Consistently, the answer was fresh fruits and vegetables.

My partner and I pitched a community farm idea where crops could be grown and your shares would be based on the work you put in (poor area).

It wasn't a popular idea within the circle of business students and we didn't even get a chance to pitch to community leaders.

The idea that got pitched to leaders? A mobile medical clinic. During the pitch, one of the locals stood up and said "why would we need this, we have universal healthcare provided to us, we see the doctor whenever we want"

Needless to say, i was nice to see the a*s hat who was pitching the idea stutter and stumble trying to talk around the complete absurdity of his idea.

When I was 6/7 my aunt's family were visiting (from several states away). My two aunts brought their kids to our place to swim. My cousin and I share a birthday, which was the next day. They showed up with presents and cake for my cousin only. I sat there while they had birthday party, opened presents, had a huge cake and sang the birthday song to her, etc. Mom reminds them it's my birthday too, and I get a cursory "oh, Happy Birthday" and they just go on like it was never mentioned, no apology, no realizing how I must feel, nothing. I didn't care about the presents, I just felt like no one there even cared I existed. I hated being with them every time they came to visit from then on. It could have been so different... It could have been a fun double party we bonded over. They could have given her gifts later. This was when I realized these two aunts treated their kids like they were the elite and treated their 7 brothers kids like they were inferior. Haven't spoken in 20 years now, no regrets.

My selfish brother in law got there before we did. There were 3 rooms. 1 , a master bedroom for the parents, and 2 other rooms. 1 with a queen bed and the other with 2 single beds. Guess which room he set up camp in? He was there by himself and took the queen bed room. Leaving the 2 single beds to me and my new husband. He argued that he got there first.. My husband was livid.

The worst of the lot was when I made an honest mistake and she *knew* it was an honest mistake, but she still forced me to stand up in front of the entire year and apologise. After about a year of this I told my mother in all seriousness that I was going to kill myself, and was 100% convinced that if I died nobody would even care. My mother of course freaked out and got me out of that horrible school, but the teacher went completely unpunished. Wherever you are now, Tracey Webb, I hope you're f*****g proud of yourself. You successfully destroyed an autistic little girl's self esteem to the point that she wanted to DIE and still has issues to this day. You evil old b***h from hell.

My grandmother died when I was 19, and left me money for a car. I only had a bike at the time to get to work, partly on a 4-lane highway. I lived with my mother at the time, about two miles from work. When the will was settled and I got my inheritance (about $1000), Mom took me car shopping and we found a '74 VW Beetle (this was 1987 so it wasn't an antique yet) at a dealership. I bought it, and the salesman said they'd take care of the paperwork and let me know when it was ready. They called a few days later, and I asked Mom to take me to pick it up. Nope, she had to work late. Every night for a week. This all happened in January. So, a week after my car was ready, I was riding to work on the shoulder of that big highway, about 5:45 in the morning, and it was snowing. Suddenly I saw headlight beams going by me on both sides of my bike, and a second later I got hit by a car & landed in a snowbank. Nobody stopped. So I almost died because Mom couldn't leave work on time.

Year 7, Catholic primary school, we had to write a paper about what we did on our Confirmation Day. I didn't write much about the actual event in the church, number one, because it was boring and number two, I didn't remember much about it, it was that boring. So I wrote a paragraph on it, and the rest was about the actual fun stuff I did that day, mainly the party, spending time with my family, the excitement of getting ready for the ceremony, the cake etc. In my free time that day, I also used my free time to finish making a small Fennekin sock plush because at the time I had started a new hobby of making handsewn Pokémon plushies. I was really proud of it so I thought it was worth writing about. My Teacher stood me up in front of the class and yelled at me for not writing enough about the ceremony. I still remember her yelling "You wrote more about your toy fox than the entire ceremony!"

My family like reading books a lot and my dad and my sister used to read to me when I was little. I'd had The Hobbit and Lord of the Rings read to me several times by the time I went to school. I'd picked up the love of reading too and being a little loner I just read a lot at home. I'm in junior school when this takes place but the class is reading 101 Dalmatians. We were asked to read silently to ourselves and then afterwards the teacher asked us all how many pages we'd read. My classmates typically only read a small number of pages whereas I had read through a lot. I got called a liar and in trouble for cheating in class because of this. It still pisses me off today that because my reading ability was far better than anyone else's at the time I got punished for it!

I was about 10, 11 years old and had to hand in an art assignment drawing a clown. I made a drawing of a sad clown crying. My teacher failed my assignment. When I asked her why (you normally won't fail an ART assignment unless you don't have it in), she said that clowns must smile or laugh; they can't be sad and and cry. It's been more than 20 years and I'm still salty about it. Made me pretty much lose all interest in art lessons after that.

Your art teacher was a moron and not fit for teaching the subject; perhaps you should pick up art classes again now that you're an adult and can presumably find teachers who actually have a passion for the subject and not the baby-level b.s. of that other art teacher. BTW, if you ever run into your old art teacher on social media you should send her a YouTube link to the Smokey Robinson and the Miracles classic "Tears Of A Clown" and say it's from me, and that if I had been in that class as a ten-year-old I would've pointed out the existence of that song.

In Beginning Cooking class my junior year of high school, we needed to make eggs two ways. I’m an awful chef (which begs the question of why I took cooking classes 2yrs in a row, but I digress) and I never cooked at home, except for one thing: scrambled eggs. I had been making scrambled eggs since I was a little kid (it was actually the first thing I ever learned to cook). So, for class, I made scrambled eggs the same way I’ve always done it. I. Got. An. F! Apparently, scrambled eggs aren’t supposed to be broken up in the pan, noooooo they have to look like little intact omelettes! I was so mad that I spent the day asking everyone I came across how they take their scrambled eggs, and spoiler alert, only one person said that their mom eats them the omelet way, everyone else answered "broken up". And, to rub further salt in the wound, my family went to Denny's a few days later and guess how my eggs were served? Broken up. It’s been over 6 years and I'm still mad.

I remain 100% convinced that Blizzard ripped off my Overwatch character design, but because the website it was on has long since imploded, I have no way to prove it. I designed, wrote for and even commissioned artwork of a tall, red-haired Irish doctor in his late 40s who spoke Gaeilge... and months later, who should come out as an official charcter but Moira, a tall, red-haired Irish doctor in her late 40s who spoke Gaeilge. That same character was designed to be a tanky support who could grant armor to fully-healed allies, only used melee weapons, and was specifically designed to support an existing, well-known unit in Overwatch lore.... then a few months after Moira, they release Brigitte, a tanky support who could grant armor to fully-healed allies, only used melee weapons, and was specifically designed to support an existing, well-known unit in Overwatch lore. I'm still salty af about it, all the more so that I can't prove it and do something about it.

Oh, oh, oh! The supply teacher who made me go back to the library and pick a book from the "rated for 10 year olds" range when I'd been freely reading whatever I liked for MONTHS. I read that book three times in the space of twenty minutes and she told me off for looking bored. Of course I was f*****g bored, you dozy tart, I was halfway through The Shining before you made me read this arsewash.

Both of these are from the same person: I was reading on the playground, and she started throwing pebbles at me. It's not enough to hurt badly, but it's still kind of painful. One got in my eye, and I asked her politely to stop, but she pulled faces at me and continued. I continued asking her to stop, and then I put my book down and yelled "STOP" at the top of my lungs. She told the teacher on duty I yelled at her, and the teacher told me to "be more respectful, and I could have said stop politely." I would have gotten detention but my parents yelled at the teacher on duty for me, so I didn't :). next story in replies because I ran out of room

So the second memory goes like this: me and this same girl (I will call her "E") were playing spies. E suggested we roll up Easter egg foil and put it in our ears to imitate earpieces. It was very fun, except I couldn't get mine out, and kept on pushing it further in. i had to go home early, then go to the hospital, and i had to get laughing gas and stay overnight because it hurt too much to take out otherwise. Next Monday, I went back to school and let her know that I had to go to hospital because of her, and what did she say? "That wasn't me, that was Maggie (another one of our friends)." I was in Grade 3 at the time, so not a forgetful kindergartener, and I was sure it was her. Another time one of my books went missing, but we had stopped being friends at that point so I was sure it was her. Luckily, she moved schools the next year and I've never seen her again

My mom was a narcissist and I was her scapegoat child. At 14 she decided she had had enough of my "behavioural problems" (talking back to an obviously shitty and unfair mom, bad grades in school because of my s**t home life). She sent me to live at a Children's Home, away from anyone I knew. Within the first 2 weeks of me being there, her, my siblings and my sister's boyfriend all go to Discovery Cove without me. She says it was because I was misbehaving in the home, I asked her what teenage girl wouldn't act out if they were ripped away from everything they knew without warning. She's never had a response but as far as I know, that Discovery Cove souvenir picture still hangs in her home. She's an awful human being and I have not spoken to her in years because of the many other messed up things she has done to me.

I never thought of myself as a person who holds a grudge until I tried to think of something I'm still salty about and I ended up narrowing it down to two things-one when I was a child: Super Mario 3 had just come out, I lent a girl at school the strategy guide, which was practically new, and she didn't give it back for months and when she did, it was completely trashed- ripped, taped together, the pages looked like they'd been through a garbage disposal. For recent: my work performance suffered for a bit after a sudden illness and death in the family that had cataclysmic effects on my life and others in my immediate circle. My coworkers, including my boss, staged a kind of intervention at the end of a workday where they got together and told me that I was moving too slowly and spending too much time with my patients (bc I'd been taking care of them for over a decade and they all knew what had happened; they were, very kindly, concerned for me).

Instead, boss and coworkers wanted me to be like the new girl they hired who could churn through patients like a beaver through wood, like an assembly line. "Why can't you be more like her?". Never mind that I was a dedicated employee who regularly went above and beyond, did everything outside my job description I was asked to do, never complained, never took time off, and never asked for more. It didn't matter that I had been there for years and had eased a difficult transition in the office. The first time I went through something difficult, they ganged up on me and wanted me to be more like the new girl. The new girl, who could do no wrong, quit about a month after this "intervention". I finally had had enough and quit myself during Covid. Never been happier, in a great place now where I feel valued.

There is a good number of video game posts here, I'll share mine. I was a Sega fan boy and my sociopath "friend" stole my (now) classic Sega collection (Genesis, Sega CD, 32X, and a massive collection of games, many rare) This was in high school, it was tucked away in my closet by then, and knowing this a$$ I'm sure he bought drugs with the proceeds. At first I wasn't sure what happened to it. Then, he stole my Dreamcast and the game collection (this was 100% confirmed by an accomplice) and it fully dawned on me, from vague suspicion to near certainty, what had happened. The really upsetting thing is that he acted like nothing happened. Just ripped me off and acted completely normal. Total sociopath. Ended up becoming a heroine addict (and his SO died from an overdose, many people including myself place some blame on him for dragging her into that lifestyle, I knew her before that and it was not her style). Super bitter about how all this played out, beginning about 20 years ago.

I got an omnibus of all the Jane Austen novels, with gold edged pages, for my 21st birthday. My sister scratched her name into the top edge of the pages. She denies it even though it was clearly her name. Still angry about it 11 years later!
