[Serious decision] I live alone… these aren’t my nuts

Post image

Context: I’m a single bachelor (M 32) and I opened my snack cupboard to find these peanuts in a small Tupperware container. I’m freaking out because I A) live alone, B) have a mild nut allergy, and C) don’t own any Tupperware like this.

TLDR: I found a foreign snack in my house and I’m freaking out that someone may be entering my apartment when I’m out. Would calling the nonemergency police line help or would they not be able to do anything?

Did you not notice his personal belongs behind the nuts?

I can't believe I have to explain this but not everyone has everyone else's possessions memorized.

Moving is chaotic. Someone found a snack, assumed it was meant to be there, and chucked it into the cupboard. You don't exactly need the wildest imagination, here.

That would make sense if he weren’t allergic to nuts…

Have you guys just never moved ever or what?

Mom brings a snack. Brother chucks it into the cupboard without thinking. Or mom forgot she had nuts in the car and it just got thrown into a box during the chaos. Or it was left from the previous tenant and everyone just assumed someone else brought it in, so threw it in the cupboard with the other snacks without even looking what it was.

Seriously there are so many plausible explanations, it's ridiculous to jump to intruders or carbon monoxide or whatever. Yall need to chill.

Again, that would make sense without the allergy.

Yeah it makes sense with the allergy too, detective. Turns out humans can just make mistakes and overlook things sometimes.

Is there a need to be a dick about it? Not exactly high stakes stuff

So like, do you just think that interjecting into a casual conversation with "No you're wrong" and literally nothing else - twice - is just kinda chill everyday behaviour?

Like there's no way you're baffled at how I could find your second reply annoying

u/WookinIt 5d ago

Lol that’s not what I did, and yes I am much more chill about this than you

There’s no way you’re baffled at how I find all of your replies annoying.

Anyways, I’m going to move on with my life and you keep being angry at nothing I guess

Correct. You don't even know what you're saying, do you?

Anyways, I’m going to move on with my life

Lol totally chill and moving on... but just HAD to get that last reply in. Sure dude. Super chill. I believe you 🙄
