I Genuinely Feel Sorry For These 16 Adults Who Went Through Life Thinking They Were Normal Until Someone Was Like “Literally WTF Are You Doing?!?!?!?”
1. The Toothpaste Incident
“I used to think that you had to squeeze out every bit of toothpaste from the tube before getting a new one. My roommate saw me struggling and asked why I didn’t just buy another tube. Mind blown.”
2. The Cereal Dilemma
“I always thought cereal was supposed to be eaten dry. When I saw my friend pour milk into their bowl, I was confused. Turns out, that’s how most people eat it.”
3. The Unusual Shower Routine
“For years, I believed that using shampoo meant you didn’t need soap for your body. A friend corrected me, and now my showers are much more effective.”
4. The Eggshell Fiasco
“I would crack eggs directly into the pan and pluck out the shells with my fingers. My partner showed me the ‘crack on the side of the bowl’ method, and breakfast is now shell-free.”
5. The Fork Confusion
“I never knew there were different types of forks for different foods. I used the same fork for everything until someone pointed it out at a fancy dinner.”
6. The Laundry Mishap
“I didn’t separate my clothes by color when doing laundry. After ruining several shirts, a friend finally explained why my whites were turning pink.”
7. The Toothbrush Mix-Up
“I thought everyone used their toothbrush to clean the sink. My roommate was horrified when they saw me doing it. Now I have a separate brush for cleaning.”
8. The Bed Sheet Struggle
“I had no idea how to put on a fitted sheet. It always ended up a wrinkled mess until a friend showed me the right way to do it.”
9. The Microwave Revelation
“I didn’t know you could cover food in the microwave to avoid splatters. My microwave was always a disaster until someone told me about microwave covers.”
10. The Dish Soap Blunder
“I used to fill the sink with water and then add dish soap. A friend taught me to put the soap directly on the sponge instead. Game changer.”
11. The Veggie Prep Surprise
“I used to peel cucumbers with a knife. When I saw someone using a peeler, it blew my mind.”
12. The Salt Confusion
“I thought salt shakers were just for decoration. When someone used it during dinner, I realized what I’d been missing.”
13. The Haircut Shock
“I cut my own hair for years and thought it looked fine. When I finally went to a professional, I saw what a real haircut should look like.”
14. The Pillowcase Puzzle
“I always struggled to get my pillow into the case. A friend showed me the inside-out trick, and now it’s so much easier.”
15. The Coffee Conundrum
“I drank instant coffee for years, thinking it was the norm. When I tried freshly brewed coffee, I realized what I’d been missing.”
16. The Avocado Mystery
“I had no idea how to tell if an avocado was ripe. A friend taught me the squeeze test, and now my guacamole is perfect every time.”
