Knocking on a door before entering isn’t rocket science. It’s basic courtesy. You can’t just barge in like you own the place especially in a public restroom.
I swear, I’m just trying to handle my business at work, and people act like closed doors mean nothing. What if the lock fails? Now we’re stuck awkwardly staring at each other because you couldn’t take two seconds to knock first.
Seriously, it’s not hard. Just knock. Spare us both the unnecessary trauma.
I’m a 29-year-old white guy, and I move between different work sites. Today was my first day back at my original office after two months away, so I was making my rounds, saying hello to everyone.
When I got to one of my coworkers a Black woman in her mid-30s I greeted her with, “Good morning, (name), how’s your people doing?” meaning her friends and family.
Her reaction caught me off guard. She told me I wasn’t cute and that what I said wasn’t funny. I didn’t understand at the time, but after thinking about it, I wonder if she took “your people” to mean Black people instead of family and friends.
If she felt offended and brings it up, I believe I can explain that I meant no harm—it was just a casual expression. But having to worry about this kind of... Read Full Rant

Idk sterling
My dreams did escalate; this is the second time I've dreamed about my dead aunt. Surprisingly it didn't drive me to suicide this time compared to the first dream I had about her...
In truth, I didn't have any closure when she died. I should have dealt with it how I normally would, but I treated it like she was somewhere else around the world; having a great time on vacation with my uncle..I would like to keep thinking about it that way.
How could I just move on? Yes, I wasn't so close to her in the last years she was alive and sure we had time to bond with each other again. She raised me like one of her own children and I can't just forget that. Now she's buried on a steep hill with other graves, a 4-hour drive.

Why does work have to repeatedly f### me everyday my a## is raw
Some man tried to walk into this apartment assuming we were going to f### and suck because somehow people know I hooked up with someone. Words cannot express how p##### I am I would have never had sex on the first date if I didn't think i'd see the person again.
I started a tattoo a month ago and only have the linework done right now. I did my research and found an artist whose work I liked, but you wouldn't guess it's the same person. The lines are so bad. I have blowouts, gaps, uneven thickness, and shakiness. I also have come to hate the design and wish I would've gone with my original idea instead. I have my first colour session coming up soon and I'm debating cancelling the whole project. But at the same time, I feel like I can't. I hate confrontation and laser tattoo removal will be even more painful and expensive. I feel like my only option is to have a half-finished piece I hate. That or I get it covered up, but I don't want to get another tattoo. Folks, listen to your gut. I wanted to cancel the entire tattoo before my first... Read Full Rant
