I'm not going to say we're all secretly mean girls, but we do mean things. You know we do. All of us do. Men, women, boys, girls, kids – we're all mean sometimes. You can be the nicest person in the world and a little bit of meanness will occasionally sneak out. Don't believe me? I defy you to read this and act like you haven't been mean at least once. ## 1. Made Our Siblings Believe They Were Adopted ![Made Our Siblings Believe They Were Adopted](https://img.allw.mn/content/w2/zo/hqf3jgot57069021ecb2f133640509_500x250.gif) I have no siblings, but I used to do this with the cousins I didn't like. Kids are stupid so it always worked. Did it work for you? ## 2. Hung up on a Partner ![Hung up on a Partner](https://img.allw.mn/content/wh/vc/anwtwi7w57069021eeb93876844797_500x240.gif) You shouldn't do this. It's bad manners and it usually makes things worse. … but it's so tempting sometimes, isn't it? Besides, there are times when the best point you can make involves hanging up the phone. It's a shame that everyone uses cell phones now, though. There's nothing quite like the satisfying crash of a landline. ## 3. Pranked Your BFF ![Pranked Your BFF](https://img.allw.mn/content/ym/a0/y2fgupps57069023bf4c8808723640_500x250.gif) This is only mean if your prank is really mean. Otherwise, it's just a weird cross between charming and annoying. ## 4. Borrowed Something and Ruined It ![Borrowed Something and Ruined It](https://img.allw.mn/content/w6/ad/pzq0wva257069025679e7826852088_500x251.gif) This is only mean if you ruin the item purposely – kind of. Because I imagine it still seems pretty crappy to the person who lent you whatever you ruined. ## 5. Swiped Your Bestie's Favorite Shirt ![Swiped Your Bestie's Favorite Shirt](https://img.allw.mn/content/n1/mf/m2ji23az570690244c05c612627189_500x245.gif) Bestie, partner, parent – you know you steal clothes without asking. ## 6. Didn't Record a Show Your Partner Wanted ![Didn't Record a Show Your Partner Wanted](https://img.allw.mn/content/k3/ba/tpfz360457069024877ff349308358_500x280.gif) If you forget, that's one thing. If you fail to record your partner's show because it interferes with one of yours, though, that's cold. ## 7. Lied … a Lot ![Lied … a Lot](https://img.allw.mn/content/kx/xq/xx16hqxz5706902458c1a016571463_500x281.gif) Guilty. Guilty all day, every day. Jeez, I lie a lot. I need to stop that. ## 8. Used Every Ounce of Hot Water ![Used Every Ounce of Hot Water](https://img.allw.mn/content/dd/ov/hoz9a9a757069025379c5520062460_500x282.gif) Guilty. Guilty all day, every day. Sorry, Heather. ## 9. Flushed the Toilet when Your Roommate Was in the Shower ![Flushed the Toilet when Your Roommate Was in the Shower](https://img.allw.mn/content/oz/h7/mhzevgj45706902592453833779650_500x313.gif) Or your wife. Or your boyfriend. Or your friend. Whatever. This is mean. ## 10. Reset Your Roommate's Alarm to Make Them Late ![Reset Your Roommate's Alarm to Make Them Late](https://img.allw.mn/content/e9/tm/ii9w8gm05706902a8c86b748085978_500x251.gif) Okay, this is just icy. I mean, this is cold. You possibly deserve to get punched right in the face if you do this. ## 11. Devoured All of the Chocolate in the House ![Devoured All of the Chocolate in the House](https://img.allw.mn/content/qx/rb/nsdk9y7f57069025684e1064933423_500x281.gif) Guilty all day, every day. If there is chocolate in this house and no one else touches it in twenty-four hours, it becomes mine. ## 12. Prank Called Someone ![Prank Called Someone](https://img.allw.mn/content/ve/d1/d8em58lu57069025ae4e0883891630_450x253.gif) This is on the more innocent end of the spectrum, but it counts. I have actually never done this. My social anxiety is so far-reaching that I actively fear someone yelling at me over a prank call. I'm lame. ## 13. Unkindly Forced Someone to Wake up Way Earlier than Necessary ![phenomenon, girl, computer wallpaper,](https://img.allw.mn/content/k3/mc/spm7xp0p595292614994b165646104_500x285.gif) If you do this to anyone, ever, you are the devil and I do not want to be friends with you. ## 14. Did Not Replace the Toilet Paper ![Did Not Replace the Toilet Paper](https://img.allw.mn/content/yl/fw/nzzy7unf57069026572c4866045377_500x273.gif) WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU? Oh, wait. I've done this, too. Oops! ## 15. Engaged in Passive Aggressive Behavior in the Break Room ![Engaged in Passive Aggressive Behavior in the Break Room](https://img.allw.mn/content/je/my/ouavqdxu57069027d94be161680000_500x281.gif) Or anywhere else, really. Passive aggression is such a manipulative little mind-game. ## 16. Gossiped about Someone ![clothing, fashion, outerwear, dress, retail,](https://img.allw.mn/content/ad/sx/ua2orr8t59529261ddb75145325172_500x250.gif) Oh, I know you've done this. I know you've gossiped about a colleague, a friend, a mutual acquaintance – someone. Stop being mean! ## 17. Yelled at a Dog for Playing ![Yelled at a Dog for Playing](https://img.allw.mn/content/a8/ty/kjl3myrj5706902692390490186993_500x286.gif) Oh, I feel like an asshole any time I yell at my dogs for anything. I feel like the meanest person in the world. Are you secretly mean, even when you don't really mean to be? ## Related Posts - [turn off the bedroom](https://love.allwomenstalk.com/totally-turn-off-things-that-guys-should-never-see-in-your-bedroom-seriously/) - [17 Things You Should Never Say during Sex ...](https://love.allwomenstalk.com/things-you-should-never-say-during-sex/) - [things that happened in the 90s](https://lifestyle.allwomenstalk.com/things-that-were-acceptable-in-the-90s-but-arent-okay-today/) - [do guys like virgins](https://love.allwomenstalk.com/things-guys-shouldnt-say-to-girls-who-are-virgins/) - [insecure teenager](https://teen.allwomenstalk.com/teens-shouldnt-be-insecure-about-these-things/) - [911 selfie](https://travel.allwomenstalk.com/places-you-should-never-take-a-selfie/) - [sleep on the wet spot](https://love.allwomenstalk.com/things-your-partner-never-ever-wants-you-to-do-in-bed/) - [17 Things You Say That Your Man Hates Hearing ...](https://love.allwomenstalk.com/things-your-boyfriend-hates-to-hear/) - [donts after tattoo](https://beauty.allwomenstalk.com/things-not-to-do-when-you-have-a-new-tattoo/) - [full figured woman](https://inspiration.allwomenstalk.com/never-say-these-things-to-full-figured-women/) - [10 Negative Things You Should Stop Saying ...](https://lifestyle.allwomenstalk.com/negative-things-you-should-stop-saying/) - [7 Things Not to Say to Strangers ...](https://allwomenstalk.com/7-things-not-to-say-to-strangers/) ## Site Information - [Main page](https://allwomenstalk.com) - [Contact us](https://allwomenstalk.com/contact.html) - [HTML article](https://funny.allwomenstalk.com/mean-things-most-of-us-have-done/)
