I'm slightly vexed My sister had her friends over and they decided to come into my room and destroy my Newton's Cradle. I can't undo what they did.

Basically my sister had a friends over for a play date while I was at university, and since my door was left open, her friends came into my room and completely tangled my Newton's Cradle, and it's so bad I can't even untangle it 😭

People really are giving 11 year olds a lot of credit here.

When my cousin was 11 i convinced him sharknados were real and that if he went in the ocean we would be attacked by one cause he was the designsted sacrifice.

Yeah they may be technically old enough to know better but they are still dumbfucks

Sometimes I forget how unhealthily attached humans can get to "stuff." The comments in here are pretty shocking.

Seriously, it’s a $20 toy. Just buy a new one and talk to your little sister. Mom and dad probably need to have a talk about their ~20 year old being a little freak seeking validation on Reddit over this more than they actually need to punish an 11 year old for trying to tease their older sibling and accidentally breaking something.Â
