I think he's within his rights not to pay for a wedding that he's basically not going to be included in, he just went about it in the most immature way possible.

But, of course, without that part, we wouldn't get to see those bitches getting put in their place and circlejerk over how evil women are. Which is the whole reason this guy made this up shared this 100% real experience.

This is what I was thinking too. From what he said, he never married her mom and let them move in with him. It feels like he never thought of them as family and then gets angry when they treat him the same.

He's such a whiny little bitch though, there is no way this happened.

I think it's a way to go 'important' places and be treated like a celebrity. So they can all get in to something for free. Of course, the only place a bunch of tropers in black longcoats and glasses would be going for free is the county jail.

True, but I think cooking together at home would be way more romantic than having a cook try to convince you to let him gently caress you straight.

This happened last night, not today, but still less than 24 hours ago.

So my husband LOVES birds, all kinds of birds. He thinks they are great. He is especially fond of ducks. Last night while he was in the kitchen prepping a snack, I thought it would be fun to change the desktop photo on his laptop (he had left it open on the couch). I found a cute duck picture, made it his desktop background, set the laptop back on the couch, and made my way innocently back to the kitchen table where I had also been having a snack.

My husband finishes his snack a little while later and heads back to the couch while I remain at the table. He pulls his computer towards him and goes, "OMG honey look! Ducks!" As he stands up holding his laptop and tries to come to me, he trips and falls over the glass end table we have, shattering it. If that wasn't bad enough, he fell onto his macbook, smashing it completely open and crushing it. If that also wasn't bad enough, he also broke his wrist because of how he fell on it since he was holding the laptop.

I feel like a terrible person, but my husband still loves ducks.

TL;DR: My husband got so overexcited over a picture of ducks I procured that he broke himself, a table, and his macbook.

Have Your Reservations About Your Reservation
Travel Agency | Dublin, Ireland | Employees, Lazy/Unhelpful, Tourists & Travel

(It’s my first time traveling alone, and I make all the arrangements myself, triple-checking everything because I know I won’t have anyone I know in the country when I arrive. I’m assured that everything will go as planned. Once I’m off the plane though, I can’t seem to locate my hotel, and it does not appear on any maps, nor has anyone I speak to heard of it. Hysterical because now I’m penniless and stranded halfway round the world, I finally get directions from a different hotel, who informs me the one I’m looking for has changed their name. Understandably angry, I call the agency.)

Me: “Why was I not informed that the hotel’s name had changed? That’s kind of important!”

Agent: “Are you unhappy with the service we provided?”

Me: “Yes, I’m unhappy! I was wandering around Dublin with my suitcase for three hours, trying to find somewhere that doesn’t exist!”

Agent: “Was your reservation to your liking when you got there?”

Me: “Yes, eventually. My point is—”

Agent: “Then there’s nothing I can do. Have a nice day.”

(They hung up on me, without even apologizing for their mistake.)

"I make all the arrangements myself" apparently means asking a travel agency?
Triple-checking means 'not knowing the address or phone number of the hotel you're staying at?'

Just read the story. There were dogs on the flight and the child was breaking out in hives from the proximity to animals. They couldn't leave until the kid stopped sneezing and poo poo, so the plane was being delayed. Airline travel has a knack for turning people into isn't assholes.

Legally if someone is so allergic to animals that they get that bad just being on the same place as them, it's the legal responsibility of the company that provides the service. I would assume they're putting the family on another plane with fewer animals on board. It's also irresponsible as a parent to not have Benadryl on hand if your child has allergic reactions this severe to animals.

It's poo poo that did happen, but poo poo that we aren't getting entire story on.

I take it, my Sphynx cat takes it. I take it because I'm allergic to pine resin and pine pollen which I induced in myself after years of soldering. Substitute solder is available (and twice the price) but substitute basically-everywhere-outdoors is not. I am dependent on it if I don't want sneezing fits every time I leave the house.

My cat takes it because she is allergic to people, or rather, a lot of the fabrics and conditioners in people clothes. When I need to travel with her I make sure she takes it. The hives are ugly as gently caress otherwise.

So yeah I'll be the rear end in a top hat who doesn't understand why the kid just can't take antihistamines. I'm also the rear end in a top hat who has taken cats on planes and trains.

Do antihistamines not work in some people or something?

You effectively can't do anything about dogs on planes. You can pick a carrier that doesn't allow dogs or cats as carry on luggage but you can't do anything about service dogs being present. The allergy needs to be medicated if the kid ever wants to be able to even leave the house.

The people "clapping towards the back" were probably the people harbouring the tiny dogs or cats in a carrier, that's where I've been typically told to sit with a cat when I've had to transport them. Pet owners can be total assholes about anyone who is adverse to their pet.

Honestly the more I think about it, the less likely it is that people even knew what they were clapping for. They were being delayed, the source of the issue was removed from the plane and they could get on with the flight.
