Man Spends 3 Hours Building a Sandcastle on a Cuban Beach, Only for a Local to Tell Him That’s the ‘New Resort Construction’ — AITA for getting mad?
So, I’m on vacay in Varadero, right? Spend my entire morning meticulously crafting a sandcastle with moats, turrets, and a mini flag. Proudest moment since I paid off my student loans. Then a Cuban guy walks by, deadpan, and says, “Nice work, but that’s where the ‘new resort’ is going. They’re pouring concrete tomorrow.” I laugh, thinking he’s joking. He shrugs. Two hours later, a bulldozer shows up and just levels my masterpiece to build, I kid you not, a mud pit for tourists. Now I’m the guy yelling at a bulldozer operator while sipping a $4 mojito. TL;DR: My art was literally steamrolled by capitalism. AITA for not wanting to tip the hotel staff?
