5. A perfectly amicable get-together:
And this girl just set the bar. Her story is making everyone on the internet cringe and count their blessings. She shared this, and I can't stop thinking about the look on her face when she realized.
"I'll go first," she posted, kicking off a thread of social nightmares. She wrote: "I was in a checkout line, trying to balance two heavy, condensation-covered 12-packs of seltzer. Now, juggling one is a chore, but two? It was impossible. And the cherry on top? I had a broken, bandaged finger, making the simple task a painful struggle."
We've all been that awkward person, right? So when she finally got to the front of the line, she did the reasonable thing. She offered a polite, somewhat embarrassed smile and made a simple request to the cashier: "Could you help me out? I can't use my hand." And you expect some commiseration and a little help. But what the cashier said next was not commiseration at all. Instead, she looked up, offered a knowing, sad smile, and said five devastating words: "I know the feeling." That simple sentence froze everything. Then, it all became terrifyingly clear. Click 'Next' to see the devastating thing she realized that made her wish the ground would swallow her whole.
