People can be pretty negative, that's no secret. Anger, bitterness, sadness – you name it. While it can be pretty uncomfortable to experience all of them, it's also what makes us human – we were created to feel a lot.
Well, today we want to shine a light on one of the feelings probably all of us have experienced at least once – a grudge. It can be brought on by various factors, and interestingly, it can last way longer than some of the other feelings. So, let's jump in to check out some examples, shall we?

H&M, for cutting up perfectly good unsold clothes in the middle of winter in NYC and not donating them to homeless shelters, etc. All to protect their brand. They created clothes to destroy them when unsold - an environmental and social waste.(https://www.theguardian.com/world/2010/jan/07/h-m-wal-mart-clothes-found) I have refused to shop there since.
It should be illegal for a corporation to do this. Destroying items of value is itself a sin, but this goes beyond that. H&M is a fast fashion company with exploitative manufacturing, which is why the cost is so low for the company that they can so casually throw so much of it away.
We were told in a fast food joint (I was management) to discard food products. I bagged them and handed them out the window on my way home to the homeless on the street corners. F* that BS when the food wasn't spoiled (of course)
A. Who cares. And B. Top dollar? H&M?

What’s interesting about emotions is that you don’t have to experience them one at a time. They can mix, creating mixed emotions, hence the name. Or they can create an entirely new feeling.
My ex sister in-law! Five or six years ago, she was telling me how she didn’t have enough money to buy my niece her senior class ring and get her graduation pictures taken and that my brother refused to pay for them. He and I weren’t in contact at the time so I paid for them, and then years later found out that she gave him the receipts of what I paid for. so he reimbursed her! Basically double she double dipped from both of us!! she’s a conniving b***h!
Sorry good Americans, but I’m 🇨🇦 and am heavy anti US mega corps. May never go back .
Nestle is Swiss, and as a european, I never buy their products. Also, I never buy any USA.products available here in Germany. Not because I hate USA and it's people, just because I read the ingredients. I can't imagine, how those products reached the shelves of a grocery store in a european country, being so overprocessed, in a level, what is already toxic (Spray cheese ... like really??? Are you insane, or what?)
I'm embarrassed for the many of us in the USA who would never touch such products either. There's plenty of good stuff to choose from here.

Within 1 mile of me it went to over $7. That particular station wound up under investigation for gouging. I never set foot in it again.

Load More Replies...For example, emotions such as anger, bitterness, and other negative ones can form a feeling called a grudge. According to the dictionary definition, a grudge is “a feeling of deep-seated resentment or ill will.” But as always, dictionary definitions tend to be pretty dry, don’t they?
That’s when we turn to more “human” explanations. Essentially, yes, a grudge is a negative feeling that we experience, but it’s more than simply that. Basically, there’s always a context for why we feel this way, a story behind it. Feelings, especially the bad ones, don’t just appear for no reason.
If it seems like they do, it’s always worth looking deeper into it – it might be due to someone hurting you way back in the day and those feelings catching up right now. Or it might be some kind of mental illness, you never know. But hey, acknowledging it is always the first step in getting better.
9th grade English teacher. I busted my a*s writing a paper that ended up being slightly less than the minimum page count... I could have bullshitted an additional paragraph and hit it. I was so proud of that paper. He gave me an F, didn't even read it because of the extra white space at the bottom.
It was at that moment that I realized how meaningless, arbitrary b******t can stand in the way of maximum effort, and I never tried hard in school again.
At senior school I wrote a poem, completely my own work. I submitted it to the English department. It was rejected as plagiarism. It wasn't and they couldn't find any evidence. It hurt because it was so unfair and it still stings.
Look it up, bet it's been plagiarized by the teacher

We had a reading competition in 3rd grade. I worked hard, but at the end another girl one. All good, but then the teacher revealed to me that she won because she was better liked than me. People voted for "like", not for "reads well". Immediate disillusion, and I never did competitions or had any illusion about who gets rewarded in society. These days I work hard at my job, but only for my own fun. Society shoots itself in the foot by not teaching people to have integrity.

I remember the "essay" I wrote abut an european country. There was a list about all topics that needed to be in there. I wrote about the economy, but just didn't haven that on the title page. And had to be like 20 - 30 pages.. But even at that age I knew the teacher only could have read the title page and graded after that and what we usually got on a test 😅🙈
I asked my fourth grade science teacher when I would get to study astronomy. She said never. I asked why and she said that girls don’t study that kind of science. I never asked again or investigated any kind of science. Late in adulthood I learned that I have an aptitude for it.

I've never owned an Apple product. It was just by chance at first. Then people started telling me how I just HAD to have an iPod, then just HAD to have an iPhone. Blah blah blah, that annoyed me.
Then there's stupid s**t like how movies aren't allowed to have villains use iPhones, how they forced U2's album on everyone, and once you go Apple you're stuck in proprietary hell.
No thanks.
I buy a piece of hardware from you, and you try to dictate what software I can and can't run on it? No thank you.
The only apples I buy are mackintosh, envy, golden delicious, etc. Steve Jobs was a @ssh0le + I refuse to buy stuff from his company.
The only apple product I have is my iPad to use Procreate on it because it's far cheaper than a proper drawing tablet. I got one refurbished for 150 and it's been wonderful for art!
My PC just died and my husband's trying to convince me to get an Apple replacement. Has anybody done that and has regrets?
YES! You end up stuck with that one piece of tech working on its own or having to replace all your tech & then you're in the Apple circle of extreme expense. The only Apple devotees I personally know have never tried other tech & assume nothing else will do. My husband had to work with Apple on a major IT project for BT in the UK some years ago. Apple were horrible, entitled priccks. They charged a fortune to make the tech work & they really didn't want to do it as they only want their own tech talking to their tech (unrealistic). Other companies (eg Android) were a delight, helpful & keen to get it working & at a much lower cost (10s of 1000s instead of millions). Unethical bunch of shysters with exploitative work practices in its supply chain, tax avoidance, and anticompetitive behaviour. I'd not give them my business out of principle. Sorry, probably not that helpful!!

I ended up downloading a sketchy version of microsoft onto the computer and only got to use it once because after that for some reason my device didn’t allow me to access it again. The OS is still there taking up space because we couldn’t figure out how to delete it. I barely passed those classes because of this. Also the design for the apple mouse is f*****g stupid because I need to use that thing while it’s charging sometimes but for some bloody reason they put the charting port on the underside of the mouse??? Whoever came up with this deserves a public e*******n
One of the reasons I dislike Apple is that they make you pay an annual subscription to develop for their platform. Want to issue wallet membership cards? That'll be £100/year. Want to develop apps? Development tools only run on Apple kit. And the development APIs seem to be poorly thought out and very clunky to use.
Not only are Apple products overpriced and awful, I agree with the no-villain clause being absolutely ridiculous, egotistical b******t. F**k off, Apple.
I have an iPhone (with no Alphabet apps) because I use my Windows computer and Google daily and I try to at least spread my info a bit.

What’s interesting about a grudge is that it can be pretty hard to let go of. After all, when we talk about it, we usually phrase it as “holding a grudge,” which suggests that we tend to hold onto this feeling.
Today’s list is a perfect proof of that – it’s full of stories about exactly that. Mind you, some of these grudges are decades old. It just proves the point that it can be hard or even impossible to let go of.
State Farm
After my first fender-bender as a teenager, I expected them to raise my premium. Instead they dropped me completely.
They were not there for me
They were not a "good neighbor"
Edit to add: Good lawd, with these other stories I'm surprised they're still in business.
State Farm has been infamous for 1 claim = cancelled for many, many decades.
My grandparents always said that with State Farm, "you were in good hands -until you had a claim," and they would open their hands up to symbolize dropping something... I.E. the claimant...
My father lived in a different state from me, but we had the same car insurance (GEICO,) they dropped his coverage based SOLELY on the fact he was related to me, as I had recently gotten into a no-fault accident.
State Farm is the s***s. In 2010, I was on unemployment and really hurting for money. To tide me over, I called them up and asked if I could skip that month's auto insurance payment. I spoke to someone who assured me I could do that and that she had put something in the computer so all I had to do was ignore the bill when it was sent out. So I did and the next month they cancelled my insurance for non-payment and refused to listen to me when I told them who I had talked to. Because of that, my car loan got called in and my car ended up being repossessed. Up to that point, I had never, ever been late or missed an insurance payment on my car insurance and I had been with them since 1975. That was 35 years I had been their customer and they screwed me over just like that. I will never, never go back to them. I don't care if they end up being the only car insurance company in the world, I would rather take my chances and drive without. Complete and total a******s.
My friend had a drunk driver literally crash through their front room (thankfully, she and her husband were out of the country at the time, so they themselves weren't hurt). SF's response to their claim was $1500--and that was after a licensed contractor (WHO SF SENT!) told them the costs would be closer to $30,000. My friend took them to court, where they eventually got SF to cover the repair costs 100% plus all legal and court costs. It took 18 months for everything to be resolved.
State Farm is notorious for this - they dumped me for the same reason. Which is insane, as the chances of another accident go down, not up.
Been with Progressive forever and recommend it to anyone who asks. Have made several claims for vehicle & apartment (none were my fault/two were well over $2,000 USD). Never been dropped, agents have always been helpful & kind, and rates are usually cheaper than competitors. I was rear-ended at a traffic light in a hit & run, and they did eventually have me go to one of their doctors to check on the validity of more medical treatment (I had had to go back for more PT after going through a few different therapists because most were terrible), and their doctor approved more PT sessions.
Hobby Lobby. Birth control isn’t necessary healthcare. Boo.
Worse than it being "not necessary". David Green argued the employees getting it through a third-party insurance company violated his personal religious freedom and the supreme court bought it.
Our Supreme Court is bought and sold today by big corporations and that man-child Trumpty Dumpty.

My Wal-Mart grudge has been going strong for nearly 15 years.
I wasn’t a fan before the Affordable Care Act and tended to avoid shopping there just on vibes. But when the ACA passed, Wal-Mart decided that it was cheaper to pay the fine for not providing insurance than it was to just insure their employees. Never crossed their door again.
I currently live less than a 15 minute walk from a Wal-Mart and have told my husband that - if forced - I’ll shoplift from Wal-Mart but I’m not giving them a dime of my money.
There is a Walmart right by my house, but I walk an extra 2 miles to get to a Mom & Pop store, even though it's more expensive and I disagree with the owners politically. I'd rather keep that money in my community.
That's nothing compared to how Hobby-Lobby gamed the system over healthcare and the ACA. For the unaware; they successfully argued at the US supreme court that the owner (David Green) was having his personal religious freedom violated because it covered employees' contraception through the third-party insurance company.
I can't remember the last time I was in a Wal Mart, probably 8 years ago or so.
I'll pay extra to shop at Fred Meyer (Kroger). I LOATHE walmart. Shítty company selling shítty shít, and they wrongfully fired my mom over her disability. Fúck em
First time I went to a Walmart I was greatly disappointed. I have shopped at Walmart quite a bit before but recently I don't go to Walmart if I don't have to.
But why is it like that? You see, our brains are wired in a way that they like to hold onto negative feelings, even though it hurts us. And we motivate them to do so by ruminating, as this way they don’t turn into the thing of the past and remain present in our heads.
Perhaps this way we’re trying to protect ourselves – if we remember the negative thing and details about it, we can ensure it doesn’t happen again, as we can avoid it. It gives us a sense of self-control, even if in some cases it’s just an illusion.
Susan G. Komen. Once I saw how much they spend on administrative fees, I don’t support them at all.
I used to run 5k, 10k races for fun. I have participated in dozens of races over the years. I only did Komen for the Cure once. As soon as I signed up, the harassment began to fund raise for them. It was so so gross. I signed up pretty early to get good pricing. Typically, I would choose one charity race to run a month as a way I can give something back, you know. Absolutely, no other organization ever bothered me past the sign up. Komen for the Cure was emailing, texting, and calling me multiple times a day up until the race. It kinda ruined the event for me. They also pushed merchandise at the races where as other organizations might have some info available, but nothing pushy like this. It's sad, I thought it would be a good cause. Now I support Bikers for B***s (local to my area) for breast cancer awareness month.
Every "big-name-charity-corporation" is working like an actual profit corporation. Their product is your naivity believing, that by donating 2 euros, you'll solve the Amazon rainforest problem, because they have a good-looking dummy on their advertisemnts littering your enviroment.
Oh, here’s my corporate grunge that goes back to 1991. Back when I was in college my best friend and I saved up to go and buy something at the Betsy Johnson boutique on Newberry Street. At the time, my friend was a size 8 and I was a size 10, but we both were division one athletes at a local Boston university,
Sidenote, it’s kind of funny because no matter what why you say that a local Boston College or a local Boston University? It kind of screamed at which of the school I might have gone to
let me continue so we go into the store and both of us were already let’s just say young adults of means and the girl working the store or the boutique looked at us and told us to walk right back out because they did not dress fattiies at Betsy Johnson and even if we had squeezed ourselves into something she wouldn’t sell it to us because they had an image to uphold.
So I don’t remember which store on Newbury Street we might’ve gone to Toppers and blew all that money on hats who knows but it definitely wouldn’t be spent at Betsy Johnson.
Years later, I was called to a gate because the gate agents and the and the supervisor and the lead we’re all straight men, and there was a little weirdly, dressed lady who someone said was a fashion designer behaving a little badly at a gate because her flight was delayed and they weren’t sure who she was or why people thought she was important so I got called to assist and lo and behold. I got to tell her that I was well aware of who she was and she needed to dial it back a bit if she was planning to travel our airline that day and I would gladly refund our ticket and she could go over to Delta or American or whoever she wanted to in another terminal.
The irony behind the whole thing is now Betsy Johnson has a plus size line for the cool fatties I guess. To quote Cyndi Lauper I guess money changes everything.
I wouldn’t wear anything of hers, even if it meant my own death, but I might be convinced to burn something of hers for warmth.
Edited to app sorry for typos or weird phrasing. I’m having to use talk to text because of an arm injury.
I had a same experience with a Jo Malone parfümerie. To be fair, Jo Malone has more colognes or max. EDT, as real perfumes, but their mixing of scents are amazing, what rarely you can find even in niché perfume-world. (For those out-of.this-kind-of-world. Cologne is lasting max. 4 hours, an EDT -eau de toilette- max. around 6-7 hours, a perfume 8-12 hours, an essence or extract de perfume for days, if you don't clean your body parts sprayed with it properly). So, the cheapest is the cologne from every kind of producer, but by Joe Malone that's even 72 euro a 30 ml. In summer time nobody wants to have 8-12 hours long lasting heavy perfume, so a cologne or EDT is perfect. Oh, but by Joe Malone, if you enter their shop dressed in sandals, t-shirt, summer-pants/shorts, you can feel the rejection in the air. JM shops are offering personal consulting to find the exact scent. Not if you are not looking "rich". I avoid them.
just because a shop attendant was a rude biotch, that doesn't mean the entire company and designer has those views
If that shop attendant still works there, after having multiple complains (not just a few Karens), than yeaps, it means exactly that. Anyway, there are very many brands in every fields, so if some are choosing being snob, I'm out.

Verizon. Totally screwed up my bill, fixed it after a 2 hour call, then sent me a $100 voucher for the trouble. A few days later, I got a nasty call from their fraud department for somehow "stealing" the $100 voucher. I requested a record of the call, and they tacked on $50 for the transcript on the next month's bill. This was right around the time MVNOs were becoming mainstream, so I got a better plan at half the price and never looked back.
They have spelled my name wrong on the bill for the last 25 years, no matter how many times I have told them it is spelled wrong. They say that they will fix it and it's still wrong.

Matthew. In grade school he hit me on the head with a hockey stick when we were arguing. I was aquaman and he was the 6 million dollar man. Ain't no way the 6 million dollar man can run on water. I stand by this. I'm 56 and a half.
Edit:
since this blew up a bit I'll fill in some more details. Matthew lived next door. I was 8 or 9 and he was a year younger, but actually bigger than me. Anytime things didn't go his way he would run home crying and then his mother would come barreling out and yell at me. Any little thing would set him off and it happened a lot. So we got into this argument and I threw a snowball at him. Now remember we wore these big a*s puffy coats in the 70s and his went down to the tops of his legs. Ugly a*s s**t brown jacket too. I hit him with it near the bottom on the side. I doubt he even felt it, but he started crying and he picked up a hockey stick and hit me in the forehead. Then he ran home crying. I booked it because I knew what was coming next. Sure enough Mathews mommy knocks on our door all p**s and vinegar that I hit her son with a snowball. My mother calls me over and lifts my bangs (ya, I rocked those) and showed her the welt on my forehead. She went silent and just walked away. I still have a mark from it.
I have practically no other memories from this age, but this I still see clear as day. Right down to his s**t brown jacket. Memories are weird. And f**k you Matthew you fat a*s pancake. I'm not still bitter. Really.
I have heard it suggested that letting go of memories about bad things can lead to an improvement in mental health, but that's just my opinion...

They did it all very quietly to avoid attracting the attention of other dog fighting rings. And second, a great quote: "Republicans love the military the way Michael Vick loved his dogs."

Nestle, AMD, HP, these guys are never going off my grudge list.
I'll join you with HP over a laptop debacle. They accepted there was an issue with their laptops (too long ago to remember the details) but they were only replacing certain models (despite my model having the same issue). So even though I don't remember it properly (hahaha) I'm still never buying their tech. 😆
I had a issue with my laptop's fingerprint reader stopping working - had to pay for a new motherboard even though it was under warranty (business machine, so onsite support). And after the debacle I had with my printer being tied to HP cartridges, which they then discontinued, I have vowed never to buy anything from them ever again. Shame, as the hardware is pretty good (save for the fingerprint reader!).

I do have a slightly longer personal one. Dates to 1984, I stole a pen from a store, and when I showed it to my neighbor and said I "found it on my walk home", she said her cousin lost one 2 days before and I had to give it to her to return to him.

It was 16 years ago, I was 4 years old. L was at my house for a sleepover, our moms were sleeping in the upstairs bedroom and L and I were in my bedroom. I was on top of the bunk-bed and we were both reading books on animals, I had the forest one and her the desert one. We wanted to swap our books so I put my arm holding the book over the bed barrier in the void, and asked L if she was holding the book. I felt her grab the book, she said she was holding it, and I let go before hearing her scream. The book had slipped from her hand and landed on her nose and she was bleeding. Our moms came down and L told them that I threw the book as her face. I was punished for it and they never believed my version of the story, the truth. I will lever let it go, especially since she pulled moves like this during the rest of our childhood. (and our mothers are best-friends from College so I still see her nowadays)

I drew a lot of things on the sheet they gave us, I drew India exploring space and sent a rover to Mars, I drew India using green energy like fission, solar etc, I drew India having less corruption while the economy prospered, I drew India having a scientific temperament, I drew India keeping its streets clean from litter. Meanwhile some girl drew a fûcking flyover and some apartment buildings and that won first place. Her other 2 friends drew equally bland things which didn’t follow the prompt and they got 2nd and 3rd place. Forgot to mention but the girl who won 2nd place was the daughter of a teacher, the one who won 1st was favoured by all the teachers because she spent a few years in Europe (as if I didn’t spend the same amount of time abroad but nobody really cares about me anyways)the one who won 3rd was their friend -_-
And I never liked the 3 of them because they were super annoying and even now they have the audacity to pretend we were ever friends.

He sent me a friend request a few years back - not happening - at least not unless I get to punch him in the face repeatedly like he did to me - and I'm an awful lot bigger now than I was back then!
His mummy should have let him marry Camilla when he wanted to instead of insisting on the archaic tradition of him marrying a virgin. They sold Diana up the river, though she was far from perfect. Camilla was always the love of his life and bringing Diana in, and we know he fancied her and was intrigued to begin with, but it was never going to be a good match. She was too naive by far and, it is accepted now, fairly neurotic. A messy situation all round, all caused by the Queen making a bad decision. Just like she did with Margaret.

I always thought we were very close, but when I excitedly said, "Oh, I get to be your bridesmaid," she went, "No, my FLOWER GIRL! AHAAAAHHHAAAA!" Then chose some woman she barely knew (her fiance's best man's wife) as her bridesmaid. Pffft. I realized then that we weren't close and me thinking we were, was just me. Now she always calls, gives me news about her kids, etc. and I make the appropriate polite noises but I don't care. She showed me who she was.
1985. UW Huskies won the Orange Bowl, but lost the National Championship to Brigham Young for reasons unknow. Still bitter about that. Also, when I was in high school, I made myself a birthday cake, then left it on the counter to cool while I went to a performance. When I returned, my family had eaten MY BIRTHDAY CAKE.
I remember when Jack-in-the Box had that e-Coli breakout. I'm terrified to eat there.
Many of these sound like juvenile temper tantrums. How old are these people, anyways!
My mom got sick from a Wendy's burger in the early 80s and absolutely refused to ever eat there again. We're talking 40+ years. Lol
It was 16 years ago, I was 4 years old. L was at my house for a sleepover, our moms were sleeping in the upstairs bedroom and L and I were in my bedroom. I was on top of the bunk-bed and we were both reading books on animals, I had the forest one and her the desert one. We wanted to swap our books so I put my arm holding the book over the bed barrier in the void, and asked L if she was holding the book. I felt her grab the book, she said she was holding it, and I let go before hearing her scream. The book had slipped from her hand and landed on her nose and she was bleeding. Our moms came down and L told them that I threw the book as her face. I was punished for it and they never believed my version of the story, the truth. I will lever let it go, especially since she pulled moves like this during the rest of our childhood. (and our mothers are best-friends from College so I still see her nowadays)
