I might have started a petty war with my roommate over a spoon.
By @reeseok2 · Petty or Nah
Ngl it's my favorite spoon. It's the perfect shape for cereal and everything. He used it and now it's gone and he's not taking it seriously so i'm hiding the tv remote.
The full story
ok i know this is dumb but i have this one specific spoon that is just superior to all other spoons. my roommate this is my designated cereal/ice cream/everything spoon. i saw him use it for his mac and cheese yesterday and now it's vanished. i know he's the one who lost it. he thinks i'm being dramatic but i'm actually upset. so until the spoon is returned, i've hidden the remote for our living room tv. he's gonna be so mad when he gets back from class lol. am i cooked?

What people are saying
@tess — It's not about the spoon, it's about the complete lack of respect for your stuff.
@danilol — Not cooked. I'd start hiding one of his shoes every day until the spoon reappeared.
@kiraagain — I feel like there's a good chance it's just in the back of the dishwasher or fell behind the counter.
@quinnmm — This reminds me of when my brother 'borrowed' my favorite mug and then 'accidentally' broke it. I'm still not over it.
@reallytho — You're definitely cooked, but I totally get it! It's so frustrating when someone doesn't understand that it's YOUR special item.
