28 of the Most Blatant Cases of Favoritism People Have Ever Seen

When it comes to favoritism, it’s almost preferable for it to be blatant.

RRuruurrr 5y ago . One of my classmates always got better scores on comparable essays in a high school literature class. I suggested it was favoritism so we decided to write each other's papers to see what happened. Our study found that no matter who wrote the paper, if I turned it in I got a worse grade than if she turned it in. + 22K ...

sbankss 5y ago A girl I was friends with in high school was the middle child in a VERY wealthy family. The parents clearly favored the older sister and younger brother.

The parents truly just ignored her and let the other siblings walk all over her. 258 ...
buttercuphopscotch 5y ago Coworker gets paid way more than I do because of experience yet I have to do their job and mine.
