So my dad came home from work today and was really hungry. My step mother had earlier told my father that she was craving pizza and so it had been set in stone that pizza was for dinner. Me being the helpful teen I am volunteered to order it all online! “Wow, you can do that?!” Yup. So they had a very complex order (one pizza with this and another with sauce on half and half this full that blah blah blah). So as I was was scrambling to order it the way they wanted I forgot one CRUTIAL part of one of the pizzas. Mushrooms. My parents had specifically stated that’s baby sister LOVES mushrooms and it should be on the order. Of course they mention that one time while they go on about all the other toppings they want and what side they want their anchovies on. So I’m typing in the stuff, adding to cart, adding their dipping sauces and the order is finally done. I asked them both MULTIPLE TIMES if the pizzas were correct and even told them what I had put on their 2 TOPPING PIZZA (not including the would be THIRD topping on it being the forgotten mushrooms) and they CONFIRMED THAT IT WAS CORRECT EVERY TIME. Cut to waiting for our order pickup and retrieving it. Finally we get home and place the pizzas on our counter. This is where everything goes wrong. As the box opens, everything looks good... wait... SHIT! I forgot the mushrooms. As I’m realizing that I forgot to add them, my parents do as well and they are PISSED! “Where are the mushrooms WE TOLD YOU TO ORDER MUSHROOMS!” “YOU DID THIS ON PURPOSE” now I’m thinking “um what? Excuse me I didn’t do it on purpose don’t yell at me” but I realize it was my mistake and I apologize. “I’m so sorry I accidentally forgot to add mushrooms to your 2 topping pizza but please understand that you already had 2 toppings and you would have had to pay extra (my dad is a crazy cheapskate). There was mistake #1. They were on me like stink on a monkey. “NO YOU DID THIS ON PURPOSE BECAUSE YOU KNEW THAT THE BABY LIKES MUSHROOMS” “DONT LIE IT WAS OBVIOUSLY ON PURPOSE” this is where I make mistake #2. I tried to tell them that they confirmed the order multiple times but they just kept rambling about “no we ordered mushrooms, you did this on purpose!”. They were livid and I was upset, but it doesn’t matter how I feel because the baby won’t get her mushrooms OH NO! Eventually I just shlepped off to my room where I could hear my dad yelling after me and my step mom complaining. Nobody has come upstairs to talk to me yet so my rant has gone uninterrupted. Thank you for listening and hopefully my parents shut the fuck up, accept my apology, and realize I didn’t take their order wrong out of spite.

My grandma pulls this shit all the time, she thinks she's always right, really dumb. She's like "I TOLD YOU WHY DID YOU DO THIS WHEN I TOLD YOU TO DO THAT" etc etc etc. And when someone makes a mistake, she stays quiet, but when someone points out the mistake, she jumps in and says "I TOLD HIM NOT TO DO THAT BUT HE WOULDNT LISTEN ITS NOT MY FAULT" even though no one blamed her. And she never listens to the rest of us. anonymous 6 years ago
Crutial Mushrooms. I've had those. one time. a shaman that I knew who was 124 at the time climbed the nearly 90 degree cliff face to steal some from the monkeys that guard them. I've never seen such a fight in my life. my guide was murdered by the monkeys, but I was able to beat up the smallest one and get away. ahhh… Crutial Mushrooms. I hope, one day, to have them again.
