Often, we don’t get to decide what random, sometimes pointless thought or experience manages to stick with us. Unfortunately, it can really feel like our brains love to make us remember moments that were not that pleasant at all.
Someone asked “what is the most petty, completely harmless grudge you are still holding against a total stranger who probably forgot you existed years ago?” and people share their stories.

2 old guys discussing soccer very loudly in an otherwise silent train car at like 11pm. Had to listen to them for like an hour probably, it was incredibly annoying.

Guy at a gas station like 4 years ago who grabbed the pump I was clearly pulling up to. Made eye contact and everything. I think about that man every single time I get gas.

In the 5th grade my teacher loaned me out to the special education class program. They were doing the 12 days of Christmas and only had 11 students. My teacher volunteered me and I was mortified.

Seven years ago, a guy sprinted to catch my elevator, squeezed through the closing doors like an action hero, and then pressed the button for the second floor. I still pray both sides of his pillow are eternally lukewarm.

The barista who spelled my name Rhachel in 2017. I have never forgiven her. Every time I see a Racheal I side-eye them.
