TikToker Speaks Out After Doctor Refused To Set Her Broken Arm Because She Was Crying
TikToker @sarahtheseven recently came out on TikTok with her story of medical gaslighting, medical neglect, and possible fraud when she broke her arm and interrupted an orthopedic surgeon named Ricky during his holiday weekend.
Wearing a hard plastic shoulder cap and sling, the TikToker deadpanned to the camera:
"Medical gaslighting is when you break your arm in half, and you go to the ER to get it set, and they call an orthopedic surgeon named Ricky."
Likely because of the "inconvenience" to his weekend plans, Doctor Ricky refused to see the TikToker, leaving her in pain for several days. By the time the appointment came, her pain threshold had understandably been maxed out, and when he began to inspect her, she started to cry.
Because of her tears, he decided she was not "fit" to be a patient and would need surgery instead of having the bone set. Keep in mind, the arm that had been broken in half had not been set for several days and is a notoriously difficult bone to set, fuse, and heal correctly—and, of course, is incredibly painful when broken.
The TikToker did not want to go under the knife and started listing examples of her normal pain threshold, including having two babies naturally without pain medication.
The doctor argued that having babies was not painful because it was "natural" and that she was not fit to be his patient.
The greater problem with this was that Doctor Ricky also refused to refer her to any other doctor, arguing that she simply had to go into surgery, and he also refused to reject the surgery, which locked her into being unable to receive medical care from anyone else.
The TikToker said she then got in the car and drove to the ER, where she got her arm set. After they tried to refer her to Doctor Ricky once again for a follow-up, he refused to see her because she'd rejected his "fancy expensive surgery."

After receiving feedback, TikToker @sarahtheseven explained that she was trying to move forward with a lawsuit but was still figuring out the ins and outs of the process.
Not only were fellow TikTokers disgusted by what happened to @sarahtheseven, but they hoped that something would come of her pursuing legal action.
This feels a lot like medical malpractice, medical neglect and gaslighting, and possibly even fraud, and something needs to be done about it before Doctor Ricky can do this to another patient.

Wedding Caterer Goes Viral For Her Reaction To Discovering Groom Was Having An Affair
Prior to the pandemic really setting in, the caterer met with the couple and planned out all of the culinary details of the wedding, confirmed the dates and locations, and everything seemed to be ready to go. Even when the pandemic hit, Sweet contacted @culinaryem to confirm that there would still be a "micro wedding" on the originally-confirmed date, with a larger wedding party to follow when the pandemic was over.
That seemed like a great plan to Em, at least until she received a call from a woman, who she nicknamed "Bamboozled," who was setting up a joint birthday party for her boyfriend and his twin brother.
The TikToker showed up at the event location and worked with Bamboozled and the twin's girlfriend to set up the space. Then the two birthday men showed up: Dirtbag and his twin brother. Neither woman in the room was Sweet.
TikToker @culinaryem made eye contact with Dirtbag, who seemed to recognize her, because he proceeded to make "awkward eye contact" with her throughout the rest of the birthday celebration. After the event was done, he offered to walk her to her car and tipped her $100, and thanked her for "everything," which sounded like a loaded statement.
After the event, the TikToker knew she had to decide whether or not to explain this to the bride.
Eventually, she decided to let the answer to a question decide for her. She contacted Sweet to see if she was still catering for her micro wedding, and when the bride said yes and that she was "very excited," Em knew what she had to do.
She explained that she could not "in good conscious" still cater the upcoming wedding events because of the birthday party event she had just witnessed.
The bride thanked her for telling her and said that "obviously" the wedding was canceled.
While she felt disheartened to have shared that information with such a sweet bride, @culinaryem could not proceed with helping out with a wedding while knowing what was going on behind the scenes.
And of course, she hoped that Dirtbag ended up alone.

Some were amused by the idea of the $100 as "hush money."

Ironically, some male TikTokers criticized the caterer for outing Dirtbag's second life before he could marry Sweet, so she decided to share a follow-up video, pointing out that she is not under any sort of confidentiality agreement, and if she ever sees anyone acting like a dirtbag, male or female, she will out them.

It can be really scary to share what you know a person to be doing, simply because you don't know quite what the consequences of telling will be, and you really might not have all of the information.
But when we're suspicious that someone is cheating, it's generally better to share that information so that if anyone is going to get hurt, they will have at least invested less time in the relationship than if you'd stayed quiet.
As TikToker @culinaryem pointed out, hopefully Dirtbag ended up with neither Sweet nor Bamboozled, and hopefully Sweet is incredibly happy.
Woman Hilariously Panics After She Accidentally Child-Locks Her Dinner In The Oven
Already hungry and tired at the end of a long day, the TikToker accidentally set off the child-lock on her oven, preventing her from opening it or using the rest of its features.
What happens in the video is an incredibly hilarious (and also totally justified) crash-out as the TikToker struggles against her oven, pulling on the door like her sheer force of will could do the trick, and calling on the help of Google and several AI features to give her directions on how to unlock the appliance.
From mocking her phone's directions to crying on the floor to wailing in frustration, this TikToker experienced a full range of emotions on behalf of this potato—and quite frankly, we're here for it.

Some fellow TikTokers were thoroughly amused.

Days later, TikToker @dani_b_unfiltered shared the update everyone had been waiting for, including the unfortunate fact that the child-lock had prevented her from even turning the oven off, and the way the stove was built into the rental kitchen, she was unable to reach the outlet behind it, either.
According to the update, the TikToker explained the situation to her roommate who had just returned, and within moments, her roommate solved the problem. While the TikToker had attempted to follow the directions using buttons on the back of the stove by the clock, the roommate instead used similar buttons at the front of the stove by the burner, and was able to quickly unlock the stove.

Though the hilarity is now behind us, TikTok was relieved that the issue had been sorted out.
Since cleaning the oven, including the "ashy" remains of the "cremated potato," it seems that the oven has otherwise been fine.
And we don't expect to see any more hacks for making scrambled eggs in an air fryer any time soon.
