/ck/ - Food & Cooking

Sounds like your family is just shit. My family would make a crack about me being broke because of (insert hobby/interest here), we'd both laugh and that'd be the end of it.

>>11365697
My parents were dirt poor growing up so they would have complemented you on your sound financial decision.

I can understand them being miffed that you got a different brand because they don't taste the same., assuming they gave you money to go get it. If they just expected you to pay for it and then complained like that, they can get fucked. And aside from that, the gas money comment is absolutely fucked. I wouldn't have gotten physical, but I don't know your life so I can't say that's totally wrong. He at least deserved to be cussed out for sure.

Basically you weren't perfect but you were also not unreasonable in any way, and your cousin is a fucking asshole.

Feel better fren.

>>11365712
If you were dirt poor, then why buy a non-essential novelty like soda at all?

>>11365697
yes, if you have a serious argument over cola, you have autism.

>>11365726
But they didn't. I was saying that they would have agreed with OP on trying to save money.

Test

>>11365697
Any generic soda, even shop rite cola, is better than pepsi.

>>11365697
>Got into a big fight tonight over soda at a family birthday party
Do Americans really?

Should have handed him an RC and a Moon Pie and told him to shut his pie hole

>>11365697
I know by the genesis of the conflict over meaningless nothing you're white, but is your cousin mormon perchance since they own pepsi?

>>11365697
No you did good truthfully your cousin is a passive beta cunt

RC is better than Pepsi.

>he asks if I need gas money for the ride back home, implying i cant afford it

"yes! I would love for you to give me some money!"

>take money
>you win

>>11365697
You should've said
>only poor people have cash money but you can donate to my patreon
or something like that

>>11365884
>"yes! I would love for you to give me some money!"

>someone makes a somewhat snide comment
>immediately attack them

Fuck I hate Americans

>>11365877

huh... it's almost like you don't know the meaning of words you use

>>11366284

Freedom means survival of the fittest bitch
Talk shit get hit

>>11366306
When I was visiting a friend all 7 generations of his’ neighbors family came out to brawl. Ever seen an old man wailing a 13 year old since.

>>11365697
Sounds like you might be a little stressed anon. I stopped spending time with my family because they all use me and it stresses me out. My life has improved because lf it

>>11365697
if it wasn’t your money then i think you’re wrong that you bought something not requested.

>>11365697

>older brother takes gun away from me, pushes me inside the house and slaps the shit out me

Yeah I don't get invited to family functions anymore.

>>11365697
If it was NOT your birthday...you were a dick by not honoring a specific request. No one asked your opinion, they asked you to get an easily obtainable item...faggot.

I would have kicked your ass for being a poor fag in 2018 too the economy is booming zoomer get a fucking job

>>11365697
next time
>cousin asks for pepsi
>buy however much pepsi you can afford
>if it's not enough for the party, tell them that was all you could afford and if they want more they should send you to the store with more cash
>if they have a problem with that, leave and let them figure out their own beverage problems
>physical altercation avoided
also everybody in your family should watch their kids closely and keep them from eating paint, because your story makes me feel like there is childhood lead poisoning involved in your and your family members' decisions in handling this situation.

>>11366506
Do you really feel your actions were justified?

>>11365697
The better question is why are you poor? Do you not have a job?

>>11366629
Do you really feel like this post isn't made up? That someone posting on 4chan this late on a Sunday is a bad ass Alpha Male who fights two or three people at one time and threatens people with a gun?

>>11365697
I dont know if you are still here but let me make this simple for you:

Yes, you fucked up by not getting Pepsi when they asked for it. Don't do this, it makes you look like a cheap idiot.

HOWEVER, your families overreaction was not justified. There's this thing in psychology called the overreaction principle, only mentally ill or unstable people overreact like that. Example you gave is perfect but another is like when a kid spills milk, the father beats him senselessly. Unless, you arent giving us the whole story, and you escalated it too.

So, you were in the wrong, but the people who overreacted about it were more wrong. A normal reaction would have been just to make fun of you for it and leave it at that.

>>11366643
>suck punch someone
>punch old man
>run away to get a gun when no one else has one

Yeah, real bad ass.

Should have brought back water and told him soda is for plebs.

Your cousin is a bitch but you sound like an ass

RC is good though, I dont understand the stigma against it.

>>11366526
Thanks dad

So overreaction

Three people out of 40 who aren't complete fucking pricks.
>>11365697
If someone asks you to bring something specific, you bring it. If you can't handle that, don't agree to do it.
I know this is bait, but this is one of the most irritating things one can do when asked to pick a specific item up.
>I'll just substitute it with what I feel is fine, because I'm a narcissistic cocksucker and I don't give a fuck.
>things get physical
Pieces of garbage like you should be disowned.

>>11366506
kek

>>11365738
How would they know RC is cheaper unless they were soda-drinking scum like OP?

>>11365697
Eh yeah you kind of were. If somebody ask for something you should just bring what they wanted imo. RC isn't THAT much cheaper, you just like it better than Pepsi and were thinking for yourself instead of others.

that being said, if you were really trying to be frugal you would have got Chek or Great Value pop

>>11365697
i don't drink soda and haven't in some years but i remember RC being better than pepsi anyway so you did them a favor.

but yes you are in the wrong.

>>11365697
If you took money for an order of Pepsi and came back with RC, you are definitely in the wrong.

>>11367057
Because everyone knows that the only two normal choices are Coke and Pepsi. Everything else is cheap knockoff.

>>11365697
Anyone involved in an argument over sugar water is in the wrong. Liquor and beer is okay to fight about, wine is okay to let someone else choose unless you know you have a much better option, but sugar water is for the kiddie table, and the kiddies drink whatever you put in front of them (or you're not around to hear them complain because who gives a shit about an unhealthy treat that they'll grow out of by the time they're big enough to sit at the grown up table).

>>11366506
>escalating a verbal argument to a physical fight for no real reason
>beat the shit out of someone who is already on the ground
>pull a gun on frightened, defenseless family members
>after all that shit tell them they're not decent human beings

You are a coward, a pussy and possibly a psychopath. You shoul seek out professional help desu.

>>11367089
Based

>>11366775
It's his money, if his cousin wanted Pepsi so bad he could've bought it himself. Of course, even if you become disappointed in what a guest decided to bring to a party you shouldn't complain, or worse, insult the guest. It's basic manners.

>>11366506
>jar of hot dog onions
I’m not a burgernigger, but WTF?

>>11365700
Honestly how are you on this website if your family isn't shit? Makes zero fucking sense.
I fucking hate faggots like you bragging about how great things are for you in real life.
Most of us are here because we have to be. We have no where else to turn. You apparently have a great life and yet you choose to be here. That just makes you a fucking retard.

>>11367528
People have different problems. My family is ok, but other than that my social life is shit.

>>11365697
You're autistic. That was just some banter, my family and I say the same kind of stuff to each other all the time

>>11367487

>>11366506
This is the greatest thing I've read on ck in years.

Sorry we can't all be alcoholics like you.

Can't you read?
>If someone asks you to bring something specific, you bring it. If you can't handle that, don't agree to do it.
Are you so socially inept you don't even know how to act socially at a family gathering? Fuck, go drown yourself in a lake.

>>11367528
>Most of us are here because we have to be.
This is a website/image board. No one has to be here, rather, you come here for the commiserating and anonymity (because you're a pussy IRL).

you're niggers aren't you

>>11365697
Why the fuck didn't you buy Shasta you fucking tool? This could have been avoided

You have to be 18 to post here.

>>11365697
Your entire family is degenerate for not just drinking coke

>all these newfags that don't recognize the pasta

>>11365697
Jesus Christ America, you get in actual fights over which brand to consume and spend your wages on.
That being said, you were in the right and you should stab your cousin in the gut

>>11367406
He said don't agree to it then. He should have said "I aint paying for Pepsi thats expensive." instead of agreeing to get Pepsi then bringing something else and making excuses. That would have saved everyone time.

>>11365717
This.
They sound fat and mean.

>>11369070
You can still debate the proper choices in a made up story to prevent the situation from happening to you through planning.

>>11367591

You guys live in bizarro world

Copypasta is about more than the initial bait reaction. Go back to your other site, you trash.
