This FU unfolded over the course of the last two weeks. It all started when I got home to a mess on my floors. I sprang into action and grabbed my swiffer wetjet to dispatch with the mess, when I noticed it wasn't spraying despite having just refilled the juice. I looked up how to replace the batteries, assuming this must be the malfunction, and put four batteries in the mop that I found still in the pack in my bedroom. Much to my chagrin, the spray button still wasn't working, so I assumed the mop itself must be broken and upgraded my house to the swiffer powermop via a timely amazon order. I also got to work cleaning the mess manually since the new mop wouldn't be to me anytime soon. Fast forward to today, I got a new deadbolt for my back door. Since the members of my household are terrible at keeping track of keys, I opted for one of the electric ones with a pinpad that allows you to come and go key free. After searching for batteries and finding none, I suddenly remem...

It’s taking me a bit to actually face this truth. If I think about it too much I’ll break down crying but I’ve been pushing it out of my mind. When my one and only child was baby, I look hundreds of photos. So much that my Mac book’s memory disk was full. So when I needed my laptop when I went back to finish school, I had to delete stuff. I very carefully moved the all the photos from the first two years of my kid’s life to a 1tb hard drive. Then, deleted them off my MacBook, then didn’t think about it for a decade. Whenever the photos crossed my mind, I’d think “they are safe on a hard drive somewhere.” Today, I went looking for that hard drive…. I found it, the hard drive was EMPTY. There were a couple hard drives there too that have things like my grandparents black and white family photos. That one was there and had photos. But the one that was supposed to have my kids photos was completely empty. It’s my only child and I’m a single mom and have always been. His dad has some pho...

I’m really upset about what happened when I introduced a girl I’ve been seeing to my family. She’s kind, gentle, and understanding, and I wanted the meeting to go well, but it was a complete disaster. Here’s what happened: • My mum asked her, “Why are you with a Black man?” • She said she doesn’t eat certain foods, but my mum kept insisting she eat it. • My sister laughed when the girl talked about her grandmother’s death. • My dad made comments about marriage roles, saying the man should be the head of the family. • My mum spoke in our language to my sister while ignoring her, and then stopped my sister from translating what was being said. • On top of that, my mum compared her to another person’s “bad experience” and acted annoyed and resentful toward her. By the end of it, she felt unwelcome, uncomfortable, and possibly judged. I was embarrassed, frustrated, and honestly angry at my family for treating a guest like this. I supported her through all of this and told her I a...

Obligatory it wasn’t today it was last summer. I drove a couple hundred miles to an awesome fishing spot in Seward Alaska for the weekend to catch some Sockeye Salmon. My car radiator exploded 75 miles or so out of town around midnight on a stretch of road with zero cell phone service. I put on my hazards and hoped for the best. I was really lucky a state worker drove by and followed me all the way into town while I kept stopping to fill the radiator with water (the cap was bad so wouldn’t seal). Of course I drove right to the fishing hole and went right to work fishing. Got my limit for the day and limped my car into town and made it to the repair shop. They got to work fixing the problem but it was going to be a few days for parts and labor so I was stuck in Seward for a while. I had my dog, all my fishing gear and my beach wagon I use when fishing on the beach to get all my gear around. So I loaded up the wagon, and hoofed it into town, leaving my car at the shop. I had a la...

Preface: I am stupid, please insult me, I just think this might be funny to hear as a story, like when someone is so stupid it makes you laugh. When I was 14 (in 2021) I met this "guy" (16) online and basically we started talking every single day and I was so into him and it became a relationship. Okay. A few months into this I'm a good stalker so I found some pictures on his grandma's facebook account from 2019, posted on his birthday and with his name in the caption, looked similar to him but it was very clearly a girl, like just a younger long hair version of him. I mentioned this to "him" and he just acted like i was crazy, like how could i ever think he was lying about his gender? I have a list of 27 reasons why i thought he was a girl that I kept during the years but I won't go into all that. Anyway, I tried to ignore this because I truly loved this person so much, and I never pushed the accusations too much because I was terrified he'd rath...

So, you’re probably wondering what “eating in” means, i’ll explain… There’s a place near me called Sakura Sushi, every Thursday they do a Thursday Special where Nigiri and Sashimi are only $3 and people meet in the parking lot to feed scraps to Grackles (bird) all the time. Well, Thursday special is only 4:30-6:00 PM so you gotta pay before then too, i was speeding into the parking lot at 5 something and accidentally bump the person in the space next to me. I thought about that one kid singing FuuuuUuUuUuU -ck! From Uploads of Fun on Instagram (If you know you know) So, basically i scrape/bump the car, and then… Hears where i really fuk up guys So i leave a note on he’s car and go inside, im eating my food (sushi) at the table, (i ordered some blue ones) a 7 foot tall bald man walks up to the table i’m at in a wife beater, i notice my phone is ringing which i didn’t realize at first because the blue sushi was so delicious (i always have to leave my ringer on for work calls) Well, thi...
