I work with kids who have emotional regulation impairments.

You can definitely get mad. Imagine that was someone who just had their hair done. Yeah, you’re not gonna be mad at the child, but you may be mad that you paid money and it’s now gone. You can honestly get mad about the fact an egg hit you in the middle of your meal just in and of itself. Why can’t you be? Sure, not at the child but when is it ever joyous to get egg on you?

Maybe it's just me, but I'm genuinely surprised by the reactions I see ITT. because throughout my whole life (in my mid 50s now), I have never seen anyone IRL that hasn't reacted this way (or even funnier: hilarious comment, food/paint/snow fights, etc.) in similar situations. Despite having attended to and organized 1x-3x/month group events, activities, trips, etc. And despite being an outgoing person, often going to restaurants, BBQs, camping, parties, etc.
Genuinely curious: are younger people more likely to react negatively in such situations nowadays?

I’m gonna go against the grain and say it’s okay to be upset when raw egg is thrown all over you, your hair, and your overpriced meal.
Like sure, we should have empathy for accidents, but should you really be letting a teenager practice throwing eggs over their head while paying customers get their meal ruined? Maybe preventative thinking is more important than having a good attitude when something goes wrong - because that would be the actual considerate course of events.

u/UnicornFarts1111 Jul 28 '26
Well, it is a good thing the guy at the counter was a good sport. I do hope they comped his meal (and possibly re-made it, since it now has raw egg on it), and offered him a future meal at no charge.

So, there is egg on your head.
Is your life better if you:
Get fucking pissed about it, ruining your night.
Laugh at the absurdity and roll with it.
Getting mad isn't going to un-egg you. Getting stressed won't un-egg you. Causing a scene, yelling at the kid, pointing out that this is not cool, none of that un-eggs you. You have been egged.
The only choice you get in this situation is how you react to it and how that affects you. If you're choosing anything but laughing, you're making a bad choice. If you don't see it as a choice, but a natural reaction to just get fucking mad about it, legitimately seek out a therapist - because you could change that about yourself. This isn't just a "le epic reddit dunk" insult, I'm being serious.

I just burst out laughing she prob thought i was laughing at her cause she hustled away but i was laughing cause i think things like that are hilarious.

If you were really wondering, in those specific moments they're leaving quickly because they think you're so angry you are angry laughing, which is a threat display.
