People Share The Worst Thing They've Done They Don't Even Feel Bad About

We all know we're supposed to feel upset or disappointed with ourselves when we do bad things, but don't lie... every now and then it just feels good to be a little bad. Sometimes, seeing someone get what's coming to them is just delicious. Other times, you realize you have to "be cruel to be kind" and dish out a little bit of tough love. There are lots of reasons you might not lose any sleep over doing something "bad."


One Reddit user asked:

What is the 'worst' thing you've ever done that you don't actually feel bad about doing?

Some of the responses were hilarious, others were a little sad, but all of them were that special kind of honest that only happens on the internet. Here are some of the answers that hit hardest, edited for language and clarity, of course.



Let Mom Be Homeless

I refused my mom when she said she was going to be homeless if I didn't give her money. She said she would be sleeping on a bench if I didn't help her. I told her to get warm blankets. It was hard. The next day she checked herself into rehab.

No Mercy For His Mental Ailment

I ended contact with a guy that has Aspergers. I'm usually easy going and nice, but this guy just rubbed everyone in our friend group the wrong way. He was edgy for no reason and would force conversation on topics that only interested him.

Things came to a head when he got creepy with one of the girls, and commented how he imagined shooting the other one while playing Call of Duty. Line crossed. We were done with him and told him to get lost. He begged us to forgive him, claiming he had:
"Aspergers and I'm depressed, I didn't know that was wrong."

Bullsh!t, I've known plenty of people with mental ailments that don't do what he did.

Then for some reason he became fixated on me, like I was the one that could get him back into the group. He just would not leave me alone. I refused to give a single thought to him. Then he started saying I was going to regret it if I didn't get him back in.

I have family members with schizophrenia, and drug problems. I've heard these threats before. The friends were freaking out, but I convinced them not to. You can't yield to these manipulative tactics. Because that's what it was. Manipulation.

I told him in response: "I would pity you. But I won't feel guilty. That's your personal problem."

I put it out of my mind. Whether or not he did, I didn't care. I refuse to have my life jerked around.

About a week later: "Why can't we be friends?"

Blocked him across all media. No regrets.

Puppy Thief

Stole a puppy from a yard in a really bad part of town because it was being neglected and abused and had a 99.9% chance of getting run over eventually. I'd spoken to the kids in the yard before and even offered to buy it but they said no. They gave me their other puppies (which I adopted into great homes) but they wanted to keep this one.

So one day in passing on my way to work, the puppy was in the street. I scooped it up and started taking a new route.

Headbutted A Girl In The Face

I 'accidentally' headbutted this girl in the face at a concert. It was a busy gig so people were bumping into people and dancing. She decided to start punching the back of my head and shoving me. I asked my cousin to push me into her and I stuck out my head to make sure it hit her. I then turned round and apologized.

Abandoned At The Bar

My friends and I know someone who is notorious for having no money when we are out at a bar. One night, I saw him out and offered to give him a ride home trying to be nice. He says cool. When we go to leave, he tried walking out and manager stopped him and told him he hasn't paid.

I told him okay we will wait, but he says to go and he can catch a ride with our friend Mark. Well Mark left 10 min before us so he's screwed (he banks on Mark to buy him drinks.) But whatever, I leave.

Of course he called me on my way home and is begging for money. I didn't go back for him and he had to clean the bathrooms at the bar and a bunch of other stuff. He then had to walk home at 3 in the morning for a few miles, but he needed it.

Abandoned A Pregnant Lover

Abandoned a pregnant lover. I was very worried that it was mine, but when it was confirmed not to be I ended it immediately. She didn't cheat on me; she was newly pregnant before I came along and didn't know. We were developing something, but I'm not even considering getting involved in that for half a second.

Greatly Exaggerated Side Kicks

Two kids I hated in class got into an argument and started side-kicking at each other. Like, it was really nothing, but the teacher sent them both to the office. Since I was sitting next to them, I got called into the office to fill out a witness report. Since I hated both these guys, I greatly exaggerated the situation and both kids ended up getting suspended. This was during the last week of school, so neither of them would be able to take their finals, and because of that, they failed and both of them ended up having to repeat a year.

Shot-Put

Dropped a shot-put on a kids thumb in primary school. He got in trouble for everything and didn't give a sh!t if he was suspended. None of the teachers authority or disciplining meant anything to him. We were supposed to clean out the sports shed and he was f*cking around and being useless, just laying on floor arms outstretched refusing to move. I was carrying the shot-puts to another shelf and told him to move.

He stayed on the floor.

I held the 3kg weight above his hands and threatened to drop it (I wasn't actually going to, just hoped he would move) he called my bluff and narrowed his eyes and said "do it" and in that moment I though "f this kid" and dropped it on his thumb. He never bothered me again.

I got detention and was forced to apologize but I had no remorse.

Soccer Players Deserve The Field Too

I put laxatives in the football players water cooler mid game because they took over the field we were practicing on for soccer. They had to forfeit the game and canceled the next two weeks of games/practices. I might have went a little overboard but oh well.

The Palm Beach police first investigated Epstein in 2005, and then the FBI opened an investigation in 2006.

Ted Cruz Accidentally Rips Himself With Epic Self-Own While Attempting To Attack AOC In Viral Clip

Texas Republican Senator Ted Cruz accidentally told on himself while trying to insult New York Democratic Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez during a Fox News interview on Monday for going from working as a bartender to being a federal government employee—what he called a "parasite."

Cruz appeared on the network after Ocasio-Cortez argued during a speaking event last week that the American Revolution was fought “against the billionaires of their time” and defended her previous claim that billionaires cannot truly “earn” that level of wealth without others suffering in the process.

Democrats Waste No Time Turning Trump's Tone-Deaf Response To Question About Americans' 'Financial Situation' Amid Iran War Into An Ad

Ahead of a trip to China, President Donald Trump was asked whether he thinks about Americans' "financial situation" when negotiating with Iran—and his extremely revealing remarks were quickly seized on by Democrats, who gleefully turned the clip into a damning political ad.

Republicans have faced pressure from constituents nationwide to address the rising cost of living, but Americans are feeling pain at the pump now that the Iran war, which the Trump administration kicked off in late February, has prompted a spike in gas prices.
