Every house has its own set of rules, of which you must abide by when you enter. Still, it's pretty much agreeable by everyone it's probably not best to use someone's refrigerator as a toilet.
...
You'd think that wouldn't need to be said, but as it turns out, yes, yes it does.
Reddit user, u/aug66matt, wanted you to share the slippiest-of-ups when they asked;
What is a f-ck up you did in other people's homes, but didn't tell the person?
Excellent Cover
GiphyAs a drunk teen I puked in a kitchen sink and couldn't get it to go down plug, So I filled sink with plates (clean from cupboard) and then left it.
Then I joined in the "oh that is disgusting who would do that?" conversation at school.
Do The Best You Can With What You Have
When my brother was 13, he had chilli dogs for the first time at a friend's sleepover and they upset his stomach in the night. He held on until he thought everyone was asleep and went to toilet and sh@t his guts out. Problem. No toilet paper. However, there was a basket of face flannels so he decided he'd do his best with one of those.
Showing a wisdom beyond his tender years, he knew it was best not to try and flush a flannel down the toilet so he shoved it out of the window and went back to bed.
In the morning, the flannel was discovered stuck sh-tside down on the glass roof of the conservatory, where everyone was gathered for breakfast. I don't think he ever owned up.
An Alarm Clock
While they were busy in the kitchen getting dinner ready, I sat down at their grand piano to play a little.
With the first chord I struck, their cat leaped from the inside of the instrument and ran off down the hallway. (Apparently, the inside of the piano is their cat's "secret place" for sleeping!)
A Bath for The Ages
My mom did this as a teen... she went over to a big party in a trailer (that's where the host lives) and she went to the bathroom and broke the toilet flusher and the toilet wouldn't stop flushing and my mom ended up flooding the whole trailer
That's Gonna Make The Next Holiday Really Awkward
Took my cousins birthday gift to go out and play with it (some sort of toy that you spin and it flies for a bit) and it got stuck in a tree. Couldn't get it down.
Lucky for me, the package came with two of them, and it was some cheap-ass toy so it's not that horrible. Now what is horrible is that I was 17 at the time and my cousins were 4. I played with, and lost a 4 year old's toy at 17.
At Least You Learned Your Lesson?
Mistook a laundry hamper for a trash can. Threw a tampon in it.
Realized my mistake when I was over there again a week later.
Video Game Party Foul
GiphyOnce I was at my friends house (not friends anymore) we where playing Super Smash Bros on the Wii and he went to go take a dump. I kept playing. The Wii went into an error screen, he had the Wii for years.
So I thought, why don't I reset it?
I reset all the data, by turning it on, and putting it to factory settings, I was 9 at the time so I had no idea what I was doing. It was a major f-ck up, he had a lot of saved data on that Wii.
But...Why?
Years ago my cousin and her husband had bought a new house and spent over a year renovating the whole house.
They decided to do the kitchen last as it wasn't that bad, the kitchen had just been finished in time for them to go on holiday.
So her younger brother(at the time he was in his late twenties) was asked to house sit while they were away, as some appliance had not been received and the kitchen fitters were coming back.
My cousin phoned her brother to see if it had arrived and he said "yeah enjoy your holiday".
Between this phone-call and them coming back from holiday my cousins brother had washed some clothes and needed to dry his jeans, so instead on using the nice new tumble dryer he decided to use the microwave.
The nice new kitchen was reduced to a burnt wreck, as after he popped them in the microwave he went to the shop, and came back to the kitchen on fire.
I asked him why he put them in the microwave?
He replied " I needed them to dry quick"
Still to this day don't know if he is genuinely that stupid or if this is his attempt at making light of his f-up.
...Good Lord.
I sh-t myself in my sleep. Never done it before, never done it again, but on this particular night when I was sleeping on a sofa-bed that's what happened. I got up, went to the toilet, cleaned myself up and wrapped up my sh-tty underwear in a plastic bag.
I couldn't get outside without waking everyone up so I stuffed the bag under the bed and went back to sleep. When I woke back up everyone was downstairs making operation: extraction impossible.
I left to go and get some lunch so that by the time I got back they would be out of the way.
So I got back to the house and lifted up the sofa... it was gone.
Redditor True_Customer_8913 wanted to hear about all the things we saw in a new light once we grew up, so they asked:
"What’s was normal to you as a kid but you later realized how f**ked up it actually was?"

Comedy Say What GIF by BrownSugarAppGiphy"During the divorce they would try to get information about each other and say the other one was bad for me."

"That happened to me too! Once had a judge tell 11-year-old me that my parents were one of the most immature cases he had dealt with, because they were more focused on making each other’s lives difficult than being parents."

In Private
"My father was nice and friendly out in public but was an absolute a**hole to the family at home..."
"Me witnessing my dad being really friendly to everyone in public and then being an absolute raging a**hole at home made me just think 'well I guess everyone is just two-faced and using each other.'"
"All those movies about love are just lies and fantasies, if you're not using someone then what use are they to you? Obviously he doesn't get to use us at home so we aren't useful so we don't get treated well"
"Btw No he wasn't an alcoholic, he wouldn't even allow alcohol in the house because so many people in our family were alcoholics."
MysticalMagicalMilk
Not Funny
"My mom's boyfriend would pick me up by my hair sometimes. It didn't hurt a s**t ton so I never complained, which in turn made him keep doing it. My hair was always in a ponytail so it was easy to grab and do. I told a coworker about it and laughed because it wasn't a terrible memory. But he didn't laugh like I did."
"It was more of a nervous laugh then he says 'that's actually pretty f**ked up.' Then I started to think about all the stuff I actually do remember from my childhood and realized how shi**y it really was. I have two kids and it was never a thought to ever pick them up by their hair."

Signs
"When I was 7, I came to the realization that if I showed any signs that I was in a good mood around my mother, she would find some reason to yell at me. Even started testing it, would walk into rooms she was in smiling vs not and proved my theory right, so I just stopped smiling, and it didn't take much longer for it to stop being an act."
LegendaryMuffins
In the Garden
"I live in England and my uncle's neighbor had a pet monkey living in a big enclosure in his garden. This was in the early 2000s. I assumed this was totally normal. No idea how he got it. We still know those neighbors and it's just never discussed."

When in England... stay out of trouble.

"Unless someone died it was, 'I don't want to hear it. Go to your room, close the door, and bury your face in a pillow until you're done,' or the worse, 'I'll give you something to cry about' followed by whooping."

Bye Mike
"Having no food in the house and little to no adult supervision while random men come and go from my mothers room."
"I'm legit impressed I nor my younger brother ended up taken or worse. It was kind of miserable, in hindsight, because some of these guys would come back with some fast food for us and hang out for a bit talking or playing video games. Magic Mike was super cool and I still miss him. :( "

Sorry
"Thought it was normal to constantly apologize over even the slightest little f**k-up so I don't get screamed at. I still have this problem today."
CagedKage
"Not me, but my wife. I used to just reassure her that she didn't have to apologize for everything, but that didn't help her to distinguish when it was appropriate or not. Now, when she says 'sorry,' I ask what she's apologizing for, and it seems to help her a little. That being said, she apologized last night when the dog tripped me."

It Hurts Sal Vulcano GIF by truTV’s Impractical JokersGiphy"I remember my sister had this fake belly button ring she showed my dad. He immediately ripped it out which was quite painful. I asked if he even knew if it was fake and he didn’t. He thought it was real and did that."

Rages
"Parents having blackout rages. Sometimes, I was a brat. Other times, I had done nothing wrong. I just remember being made to feel like a worthless loser, screamed at, and manipulated. Then the next day, they would say 'Sorry sorry sorry' This happened a lot. Eventually, the sorries mean nothing and you begin to feel actually worthless."

"People who sleep naked why do you sleep naked?"
I am a nude sleeper.
It changed my life.

"He said: Well, my pajamas won’t catch fire… because I’m naked."
"I had no valid argument. So, there’s that."

So alas...
"I hate clothes. If I could choose to just never wear clothes that would be ideal. Unfortunately I was born with pasty, ghost skin and I freeze in the winter even in clothes. So alas I will keep wearing them outside the house and get nude as soon as I get home. When I am at the beach with my pasty a** ghost skin, I wear long sleeve rashguards, swim leggings, and a giant sun hat because again, pasty ghost skin. Cute swimsuits are for indoor pools imo!"

"I always slept naked and turned my ex wife onto sleeping naked when we first met. She never did before. She said she was worried spiders or snakes would crawl into you know where"
"I explained that this wouldn’t happen, and she realized how wonderful sleeping naked is. From what she’s told me, she still does."
"Everyone should sleep naked! Clean sheets against your skin are the best feeling ever!"

It's a Crime
"Wearing clothing in bed just feels... wrong. I'd feel claustrophobic. Plus it's just such a delicious feeling to climb into high thread count cotton sheets and a down comforter - I don't want anything interfering with the sensuous pleasure of it."

HEAT
"It’s more comfortable. I run hot. I hate the idea of adding more clothes to my laundry. And if someone breaks in, I’ve always imagined a naked hairy man with a hatchet will make them double think their decision. (Hatchet in nightstand)."

The Feels
"Sensory issues. Clothes feel weird on my skin when I’m lying on a mattress. They bunch up, they stick to the skin, they rub against the sheets and twist when I move positions. Plus I get hot very easily. Cannot stand sleeping with clothes on."
SentimentalApathy
"Same. Can’t handle the friction of fabric on fabric. Can’t stand when my clothes get twisted because I toss and turn. If I must wear clothes, the only thing I can somewhat tolerate is a sports bra/stretchy cami and panties."
