Weather - related problems are also common in ziplining horror stories. If there's a sudden strong wind or a lightning storm while you're on the zipline. You can be at great risk of getting hurt or even being struck by lightning. For instance, I know a case where a group was ziplining when a heavy rain started suddenly. The visibility was so poor that they were really frightened about not knowing where they were going to land.
Another common horror story is when the guide gives wrong instructions. Maybe they tell you to start ziplining at the wrong time or in the wrong way. This can lead to a very dangerous situation like colliding with another person on the zipline or hitting an obstacle.
Sure. One horror story is about a person who was ziplining and the cable suddenly snapped in the middle. They were left dangling in mid - air over a very deep ravine, terrified and waiting for rescue.
One common 'Atkins horror story' is the so - called 'Atkins flu'. When starting the diet, as the body switches from burning carbs to fats, some people feel really sick with symptoms like headaches, dizziness, and nausea. It can be quite a horrible experience for those who expect an easy start to the diet.
A common one is Unum denying valid claims. For example, someone who had been paying premiums for years got sick and needed expensive treatment. But Unum found some minor excuse to deny the claim, leaving the person in debt and without proper medical care.
A common one is overzealous enforcement of landscaping rules. For example, if your grass is a little too long during a busy week when you couldn't mow, the HOA might fine you without any leniency. Another is restrictions on home improvements. Even a small addition like a new porch railing that doesn't match the 'approved style' can lead to a big headache.
A common horror story is when shingles affects a nerve. For instance, if it affects a facial nerve, it can cause problems like Bell's palsy, where one side of the face droops. This not only causes physical pain but also a great deal of emotional distress as it changes the person's appearance. And the recovery can be slow and uncertain, leaving the person in a state of anxiety for a long time.
A common horror story is also related to the brand's strict return policies. For instance, if a customer buys a Hermès item and later discovers a minor defect that they didn't notice at first, the store may not accept the return. This can be a horror for the customer who feels stuck with a flawed, expensive item.
A common one is about hats. People sometimes buy cheap hats and the material irritates their skin. It can cause rashes and itchiness, which is really uncomfortable. It might seem minor but it can be a horror story for those with sensitive skin.
Running out of tampons or pads when you're not at home or near a store is also a typical horror story. You might be at a friend's place and have to ask for supplies in an embarrassing way, or you might be stuck somewhere with no options.
The most common wls horror story might be unexpected weight gain after the initial weight loss. People think that once they have the surgery, they'll keep losing weight forever. But in some cases, they start regaining it, and it can be really demoralizing.
Finding hidden damages when moving in is also common. The renter might think they are getting a great place, but then notice things like broken plumbing or faulty wiring that the landlord didn't mention. It then becomes the renter's headache to deal with or try to get the landlord to fix.
