One person shared, 'I went to CFA [Chick-fil-A] earlier and both CFA sauce packets did this. The lids kept coming apart when I peeled and had to be removed in like 4 different pieces.'
The person went on, 'From some other comments it seems like there might be a batch of packets that are doing this.'
A user wrote, 'I thought I was the only one with this struggle.'
'The trick is to bend the corner tab down first; that gives you a better pull when opening the cover,' one person suggested.

Woman Tells Pregnant Sister She Won't Be Her 'Live-In Nanny.' Now She's Getting the Silent Treatment

A 20-year-old student tells her pregnant sister she can't skip class and work to attend a check-up, sparking tension between them She refuses to move into her sister's small apartment or become a live-in nanny, despite being asked to help full-time The two haven't spoken since, and now the younger sister is left wondering if setting boundaries makes her the villainA woman turns to the Reddit community for support after feeling torn between her sister's pregnancy and the demands of her own personal life. At just 20 years old, she's trying to balance being a full-time college student with a part-time job, all while maintaining a close bond with her older sister. 'I (20F) am very close with my sister (25F),' she writes in her post. 'We've always gotten along since we were kids, and I was just recently in her wedding as her maid of honor.' She shares how she's always been there for her sister, doing whatever she could to help whenever needed. So when her sister recently shared the news of her pregnancy, the poster was thrilled. 'Of course, I was super excited for her,' she says, explaining that motherhood had always been a dream of her sister's. But tension started to grow when her sister asked her to accompany her to the hospital for a check-up. 'She wanted me to go along with her unfortunately I told her I wasn't going to be able to go,' the Redditor writes, acknowledging that this didn't go over well. Caught between her sister's expectations and her own packed schedule, she tried to explain. 'I am a full-time college student taking summer classes and working a part-time job to pay off the classes,' she says, adding, 'I told her I had things to do today and apologized and told her I couldn't drop what I was doing.' She didn't dismiss her sister's concerns and wished her the best, but it wasn't enough to smooth things over. 'I wished her the best for her and the baby and apologized again but she hasn't talked to me since this morning,' she shares. This isn't the first time the two have butted heads over boundaries. Before her sister was even pregnant, she says, 'She told me how I was going to move in with her and help her with the baby and I told her, 'No I wasn't.' ' The Redditor says she made her stance clear from the start, not wanting to put her own goals on pause. 'I have my life I wanted to live and I didn't want to be a live-in nanny for her,' she explains. While she's willing to help in ways that work for her, she's not ready to give up her education and job to move into her sister's small apartment. 'I did offer my services to help her but I wasn't going to move in with her in her very small apartment she would share with her husband, herself, a newborn and me,' she writes.

The idea of dropping out of school and work to take care of a baby 24/7 never sat right with her, but OP's boundaries didn't sit well with the sister. 'This angered her, but she forgot about it since at the time she wasn't even pregnant,' she recalls. Now that the pregnancy is real, the tension has returned, and the Redditor is left feeling conflicted. She emphasizes, 'I love my sister, and I'm willing to help where I can, but I have my own life to live and a future I want to achieve.' For her, setting boundaries isn't about being unsupportive, but about survival. 'I can't do that if I'm living with my sister and taking care of a baby and dropping everything in my personal life to sit by her side through this pregnancy,' she says.

Aunt Bashes Idea of Therapy, Unintentionally Ends Up Quoting Therapist Weekly

Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. A woman who claims "therapy is for the Faithless" has unwittingly been giving a therapist's advice. The original poster (OP), user My_Alchemy22, shared their story on Reddit, explaining that their aunt is someone who routinely discourages therapy in favor of prayer. She even once told the OP's cousin that discussing problems with a therapist instead of God "is a sign of spiritual weakness". The OP, however, has been seeing a therapist for a while, but was surprised when their aunt confessed to feeling "spiritually dry". Stock image of a therapist talking with her patient.

"It reminded me of what it felt like before I decided to turn to therapy. In a way, she was asking for help, and she didn't even realize it. "I was torn between giving it anonymously or staying out of it altogether. Eventually, well, turns out kindness doesn't cost a dime. I offer what I can. A little ironic, but I sleep better knowing I made a difference, somewhat." In their post, the OP explained, "I shared something my therapist once told me: 'Sometimes we mistake emotional exhaustion for a spiritual crisis. They feel the same, but they need different care.' "She blinked. Said it sounded like something from a devotional. Asked me to send her the quote. "Now she's been texting me weekly for 'more little gems'." The OP told Newsweek the "little gems" include "You don't have to perform your healing to prove you're getting better" and "Feeling stuck isn't the same as being broken". "I'm not sure how conversant she is with the Internet, because there's plenty of quotes floating out there that I know she'd love and resonate with," the OP noted. "Until she gets there, we'll keep boosting her with the weekly gems." Reddit Reacts Hundreds of Redditors took to the comments to applaud the OP, with one writing appreciatively, "It's this type of petty I'm here for." Another agreed, adding, "Sometimes the best lessons come when people don't know they're being taught. Your therapist should get royalties for all these 'divine revelations'." "The 'PRO' version of this is, sometime down the road, inviting her to meet with the 'pastor' or 'devotional leader' that you're getting your advice from, and sitting her down with a real therapist," one Redditor pointed out. Generational Experience of Therapy Different generations have varying attitudes to therapy, with Monica Cwynar, a licensed counselor and social worker with Thriveworks, telling Newsweek, "[Baby boomers'] lower rate of engagement [with therapy] can reflect a cultural background shaped by different societal norms around mental health, where there has traditionally been a stigma associated with seeking help. "Boomers are more likely to emphasize resilience, self-reliance, and the belief that personal struggles should be handled privately, that seeking help is a weakness, resulting in a hesitance to seek external support like therapy." 'Felt like a win' The OP told Newsweek they had only told "a few cousins" about going to therapy, and "they loved it". "We grew up watching our elders prioritize social acceptance over well-being, so watching that shift, even in disguise, felt like a win," they added. "Therapy and spirituality don't have to cancel each other out. Sometimes healing starts with language that feels safe. Even if it's borrowed." Concerns over AI While therapy can be a useful tool for those seeking help, the increase in use of artificial intelligence has caused problems for some patients. In one incident, covered by Newsweek, a patient was urged to report their therapist after he accidentally revealed he was "cherry-picking" responses from ChatGPT. Newsweek reached out to My_Alchemy22 requesting further comment on Friday, June 6. Newsweek's "What Should I Do?" offers expert advice to readers.
