In life, there are certain moments that will leave you speechless. The movies I used to watch had me believe this feeling would follow something awesome, like a first kiss or reaching the top of the mountain. I guess this isn't the first time movies gave me unrealistic expectations (see also: making friends, my love life, that time I went to Rome and didn't accidentally switch places with my pop star doppelganger).
Movie producers leave out the everyday, fist-clenching details of life that many of us have to face; like how many times do you watch someone reach into the fridge only to find the Brita container was empty?!
I was not prepared for this type of adversity. It's time I share my struggle in hopes that we can fix this issue, and put an end to those post-longest-day-ever mental breakdowns!
Here is a list of moments that will make you pause and shake your head. RT to save a life.
1. People who decide that the doorway is the best place to hold a conversation.
And they will continue to get annoyed with you when you try to pass them. SMH.
2. When you've met someone before (at least three times), and they’re still gonna swerve you in public.
You shook my hand and looked me in the eyes. I’VE EVEN USED YOUR BATHROOM!! Dude, SMH.
3. When I finally find a parking spot, but I actually didn't because someone left their shopping cart in the middle of the parking space!!!!
The universe just wants to make me work for everything. SMH.
4. I got enemies, got a lot of enemies... and they love to subtweet.
Congratulations, you solved nothing. SMH.
5. But then they will randomly like my picture again like we’re cool
So you support me via likes now? Make up your mind PUH-lease. SMH.
6. Then a few weeks later, they will text you trying to rekindle!
Ahh, I saw this coming when you liked my picture! I guess I'm psychic; I should start solving murder mysteries. SMH.
7. People who put the empty Brita back into the fridge.
Just... why? SMH.
8. When girlfriend posts a picture of herself in a revealing bodycon suit...and the caption reads “new shoes”
You mislead me with the pic girl; this is why I have trust issues. SMH.
9. If you’re the last to finish the TP roll, REPLACE IT.
What if I just left YOU with nothing but a cardboard tube to wipe your ass? You wouldn’t be so happy about that either. SMH.
Last, but certainly not least.
10. How are you going to allow your over-sized dog to jump up and claw into my freshly shaven thighs? Should I bring a shield and a first-aid kit every time I walk through your door?
Well, don't just sit there and chuckle, please remove your dog since it is not socially acceptable for me to punt it. SMH.
I can only hope these catastrophic events will end by setting an example. Always remember to be considerate and refill the gosh-darn Brita!
