Let’s talk❤️
What’s the Most Hurtful Thing Someone Has Ever Said to You? Let’s Laugh (and Cry) Together!
Alright, folks, let’s stir things up a bit. I’m calling out those soul-crushing, jaw-dropping, “did they really just say that?” moments—the ones we still think about in the shower 10 years later, plotting our ultimate comeback. What’s the most hurtful thing someone’s ever said to you?
I’ll start, because fair is fair. One time, someone looked me dead in the eyes and said: “You have the personality of an overcooked potato.” AN. OVERCOOKED. POTATO. Like, excuse me?! At least compare me to mashed potatoes or something versatile and comforting. But no, they went straight for the dry, flavorless insult that haunts me to this day.
Or there’s my friend, who once got told by a teacher: “You’re the reason I drink.” The TEACHER. Imagine doing your homework and still being blamed for someone’s Merlot habit.
But here’s the thing—those words hurt then, but now? Now we laugh about them (and also secretly hope karma got those people back). That’s the beauty of sharing these moments: they lose their power over you when you can throw a little humor at them and share them with people who get it.
So, hit me with your stories. Let’s turn this into a group roast of the most ridiculous, hurtful things we’ve ever heard. You can go deep if you want, but even the small, dumb insults count—like that time someone said your new haircut made you look like a “vegetable emoji” (that one hurt a little, not gonna lie).
And hey, if your story is truly wild, I’ll pin it as the Hall of Fame Hurtful Comment. So, let’s hear it: What’s the thing someone said to you that still makes you go, “WOW, okay, thanks for that”? Bonus points if it’s funny, weird, or just downright petty. Let’s keep it light, and maybe—just maybe—we’ll all feel a little better after laughing at the absurdity of it all.
Alright, your turn—don’t leave me hanging! Btw i will post this in another forum just to reach more people.
@brightaday

Split rubber
all curtesy of my loving father…these are just those that immediately come to mind. How ironic when his adopted and now has a brain tumour, projecting and karma maybe? 🤔
there is so much more that comes to mind , unfortunately i don’t see a way of translating this into anything positive or jovial. 🤷🏻♀️
I’m really sorry you’ve had to go through all of that. It’s incredibly painful when the people closest to us say such hurtful things. But remember, those words don’t define you. They say more about him than they do about you. You’ve survived all that and you’re still standing that takes incredible strength.
Karma has a way of working itself out, and it sounds like life is already doing its thing. So, if life wants to throw nonsense your way, just throw some back with a little humor. Maybe call your life’s story “Surviving the Drama: The Saga of a Real One” or something like that because that’s exactly what you’re doing. Keep pushing forward, don’t let the past weigh you down. You’ve got this, and you’re worth so much more than those cruel words ever said. Stay strong, you’re amazing. 💪
Geez! What an absolute waste of space that guy is.
I can't understand what possesses parents to even consider saying things like that. Some of the worst people in the world are also "parents" and should never have been able to have children because they do not deserve them.
@Drifterbynature
thank you, and i agree.
Yes he’s was mean with his words but words were the least of my worries. sticks and stones will break my bones but words can never hurt me.
still… learning the definition of validation was not easy when applied to everyone.
break the cycle is the best one can achieve, that’s the plan. So far so good despite further adversity.
Thanks for commenting and hope you are well. Happy holidays to you and your family
@brightaday Most hurtful thing would have to be when I was younger, and me and my mom were scream-fighting, and she said, "I wish you were dead like your father." Definitely didn't know what to say to that one.
I’m so sorry you had to hear something so hurtful, especially from someone close to you. Words like that can really cut deep and stay with you for a long time. But here’s the thing you’re still here, still standing strong, and that says so much about your resilience.
It may have been said out of anger, but it’s not true, and it doesn’t define you. You’re valuable, you’re loved, and you have so much strength in you, even when it doesn’t feel like it. Keep moving forward, and remember that those harsh words don’t reflect who you are.
You’ve made it through tough times, and that’s something to be proud of. Take a deep breath, keep your head up, and know that better days are ahead. You deserve kindness, peace, and all the good things in life. 💖
That's seriously messed up!!
I once confronted someone about their behavior towards me, and instead of taking accountability as they should have. This person had the audacity to say, "You will never be anything more than sour dirt and worthless."
At first, I was super mad and cried because it was hurtful and mean but them my gears started to turn because sour dirt is only "sour" because previous things have happened to it but that same dirt can turn into flowers and be the most magical.
So I laughed and made a post saying, "Thank you for saying that I was "sour dirt" because it means I can turn anything to flowers and that is meaningful". I took their insult and raised it to a compliment and affirmation.
This happened offsite 😂😂😂
Wow, that’s seriously harsh, but I absolutely LOVE how you turned it into a moment of empowerment! “Sour dirt” to flowers? You just turned an insult into your own glow-up. If that’s not the definition of resilience, I don’t know what is! ❤️
Honestly, it’s like they handed you a dirty shovel, and instead of throwing it back, you used it to plant a garden of greatness. Who knew “sour dirt” could become the most beautiful thing in the yard, right?
So, here’s to you turning every “sour” moment into a blooming success. Keep growing, keep glowing, and keep proving that people’s ugly words can never stop you from thriving. 💪🌷
@brightaday a brother of someone I once dated for 8 and a half years told me I'd never amount to anything and how un worthy I was
Yikes, that’s a tough one! But honestly, if he thinks you’re “unworthy,” maybe he just meant you’re too worthy for anyone in his family to handle. 😜 Seriously though, it sounds like someone missed their “How to Be a Decent Human 101” class!
But hey, they say “haters gonna hate”… so instead of letting it get to you, just imagine them sitting there, still mad that you turned out to be the most successful, awesome version of yourself while they’re stuck in the “I-don’t-know-what-I’m-talking-about” club. 😎 Keep doing you, and keep proving them wrong. ❤️🙌
@brightaday You ate clearly a natural encourager. And I just wanted to say "Thank you and that I appreciate the kind and compassionate human bean that you are" 😉
@brightaday this isn't rlly funny but the meanest thing would be when i was 11 my mum said no one cares about you do u not need a mum anymore should I just go and leave? Your a girl so act like it why are you so messy u are so selfish BTW I'm 11 just wanted to see whether this is normal
Cus idk .
It’s not normal for anyone, especially a parent, to say things like that. You deserve love, support, and to feel safe and valued. No matter what was said to you, those words do not define your worth.❤️
It’s possible that your mom was going through her own struggles and that her words were influenced by her emotions or stress at the time. But that doesn’t excuse the hurt she caused. The way you feel is completely valid, and it’s important to remember that you’re not alone in this.
You’re already showing strength by questioning if what was said is normal, which means you’re growing and reflecting. You are more than what anyone has said to you. If you ever need support, remember it’s okay to reach out to others who can help you.
One of my favorite quotes that could apply to what you’re going through is this:
“The pain you’ve been feeling can’t compare to the joy that’s coming.” —Romans 8:18
Even though things may feel tough right now, brighter days are ahead, and you deserve every bit of happiness and peace. Keep going, you’re stronger than you think! ❤️🙌
@Mimihi
That is not normal, healthy or loving in any way.
Your mum shouldn't being saying stuff like that.
People DO care about you. At 11, you certainly do need a mum. But not one that is as mean and heartless as that. I don't think at 11, or really any age, a girl should be made.to feel that 1. They aren't acting like a girl and 2. That they need to be acting a certain way.
Even if you were messy (and I'm not saying you were) a decent, caring parent would encourage their child to keep their space tidy. And also, that it's ok to make a mess sometimes. A parent shouldn't be making horrible statements like that. Or saying that their 11 year is "so selfish". Some people really should not be parents. Sorry you you went through that.
@brightaday
Hmmm some ppl and even members here tell
"Why I am still alive until now"
Or "ohh Idk how you can still alive and breath with everything you are going through,I envy you "
That's latterly what they say lol
My cat is sick and I have a painful tooth.
All I will ever be is just a friend. Your to nice to be anything more. But in reality, they really don’t act as if they are my friend and I start to feel like I’m that friend that they keep around because I am the nice guy.
@brightaday that I have no value and worth. That I am not a good wife and a mother. That I am a ***, a *** and a ***. Said many times all throughout the marriage.
U are silly and weak
