Kinda weird but i realized i almost never open pump because im looking for a new launch anymore.
I open it to see what people are trading, check profiles, bounce through random coins and usually end up finding some completely different shit than what i originally opened the app for, am I a weirdo or this isn't just me?
I bake a lot and a few years ago I came up with this brown butter espresso cookie recipe that all my friends love. Around that time I made a good amount of money messing around on pump fun and finally bought myself a proper stand mixer and some other kitchen stuff, so I was baking basically every weekend. One of my friends asked for the cookie recipe so I sent it to her, no big deal.
She recently started selling baked stuff at a farmers market and I found out she was selling the cookies for $5 each. Honestly didn't care until I saw the sign next to them saying "Grandma Rose's secret recipe, passed down 3 generations."
Her grandma is alive. I've met her. She doesn't bake lol.
I asked my friend about it and she basically said the story helps sell them and asked me not to say anything. Then some local food page posted her booth and mentioned the family recipe and she reposted it saying her grandma would be proud. That annoyed me way more than it probably should have, so I posted the recipe on my Instagram with an old picture from 2022 and said since people keep asking, here it is. I never mentioned my friend.
We have a lot of mutual friends though and people figured it out pretty fast. Someone commented on her post asking which generation of her family I was and now she's pissed. She says I embarrassed her and hurt her business when I could've just asked her to stop using the grandma story. Which I guess is true, and I definitely knew some people would connect the dots.
AITA?
