In the workplace, there are cases of unfair treatment. Gay employees may be passed over for promotions, given less favorable tasks, or even fired like the example I mentioned earlier. This is often due to the prejudice of the employers or coworkers who have a problem with someone being gay. It's a form of systemic gay hate that needs to be addressed.
Physical violence is unfortunately also common. Gangs or individuals targeting gay people for beatings, just like in the story where a gay couple was attacked on the street. Also, exclusion from social groups or family. Many gay people are shunned by their families or not allowed to participate in family events because of their orientation. This can be extremely hurtful and isolating.
One common type is the back - stabbing friend. They might pretend to be your friend but then talk behind your back, like sharing your secrets or spreading lies about you. Another is the selfish friend who only thinks about their own needs and uses you for things like rides or money. And there's also the jealous friend who tries to undermine your achievements, for example, if you get a promotion at work, they might say it was just luck and not your hard work.
Often, horrible kid stories involve accidents. Like a kid falling from a tree while trying to get a ball and getting seriously injured. Also, stories of kids being left alone in a strange place can be quite horrible. It's a very scary situation for a young child who depends on adults for safety.
Fire incidents are quite common too. First responders often face intense heat, thick smoke, and the risk of buildings collapsing. They may also encounter situations where people are trapped in burning buildings and they have to risk their lives to save them. These types of situations can be extremely difficult and often result in some very horrible experiences for first responders.
One horrible story is about a gay couple who were physically assaulted while walking hand - in - hand in a park. The attackers shouted slurs at them and beat them up just because of their sexual orientation. It's a sad example of the hate that some people have.
One common type is about hidden structural problems. For example, a house might look fine on the outside but has a cracked foundation that the buyer discovers only after purchase. Another type is false advertising. Like when a realtor claims a property has a large backyard but in reality it's just a small patch of grass. Also, there are stories about bad landlords who don't maintain the property or who harass tenants.
One common one is the first time driving a car alone. You might get into a minor accident or make a lot of mistakes on the road. Another is the first time cooking a big meal. You could burn the food or forget to add important ingredients. Also, the first time camping can be horrible if you forget essential items like a tent pole or if it rains and you're not well - prepared.
Bullying is a very common horrible middle school story. Kids can be cruel to each other, either physically like hitting or verbally by teasing constantly. Another common one is unfair treatment from teachers. For example, some teachers might have favorites and give those students all the good opportunities while ignoring others.
One common element is unfair treatment. Just like I said before, some teachers favor certain students over others in grading or giving opportunities. Another is a lack of respect for students. Teachers who publicly shame or yell at students without cause show this. Also, inconsistent discipline. Some teachers are very strict one day and lenient the next, which confuses students.
Weather disasters are quite common. For example, a couple planned an outdoor wedding and a huge storm came. The tent they had set up blew away and everything got wet. Another common one is when the officiant doesn't show up. The couple is left standing at the altar, not knowing what to do.
One common element is the use of derogatory language. In many gay hate crime stories, the perpetrators often hurl slurs at their victims. Another element is the sense of power imbalance. Usually, the attackers target gay individuals who they perceive as being 'different' or 'weak' in some way. For example, a group of people might attack a single gay person.
