TIFU by scratching the car

r/

TIFU massively.

Context: I live with my family (big sis and mom feature in this story). We have a sloped driveway that is quite steep- I have never parked the car on it before.

My sister screams at me to come and park the car on the drive for the first time because she is “bored of doing it”. She sat in the car with me as I tried to back onto the driveway- but I ended up backing into the wall. She loves this car, truly loves it and I felt so terrible for whatever damage I have done to it. I’ve said I’ll pay for the repairs.

I know- I’m dumb and a bad driver, trust me; I know.

Cut to my sister screaming about how I had scratched her car (I understand she loves that car), slamming doors, throwing away her food and crying. Basically, throwing a temper tantrum that you would expect to see in elementary school or younger.

The kicker? It’s a tiny scratch. My mom
admitted the same after she’d given me the same treatment.

No one is talking to me now, everyone is pissed at me and all I can do is sit here and feel even worse. The massive, massive reaction to an accident is not uncommon in my family unfortunately- any and every mistake is treated this way.

TL;DR I scratched my sister’s car and now she’s having a temper tantrum.

    Your only dumb thing was getting manipulated by your sis. I mean if she said she is “bored of doing it” thats some bitch vibe. Whatever happened is on her.

    Also your family being angry with you for a scartch is also wtf to me.
