You will realize as you watch others have weddings that the little details you obsessed over were insignificant and you will laugh at how important they were to you because literally none of the guests care if things were not perfect. poo poo happens, and the bride AND the mom should both loving get over it, because everyone else has already moved on. Hmm, or perhaps that person had the right to have their request honored on their one special day and intentionally undermining it was kinda lovely? Having expectations and asking them to be met, and being unhappy when people choose to disregard them, is a valid thing.

Anne Whateley posted:We can infer the landlord didn't want tenants loving with it because the landlord put a lock on it and didn't give them the key. I think he assumed that the breaker would have a lock on it because he clearly doesn't know what a breaker is or does, I would be shocked if locking a breaker box for any purpose but a safety lock out would be against code.

Ham Sandwiches posted:Yeah dude the whole "but the children" angle sucks poo poo, imagine having one day where you want to be able to remember it for the rest of your life the way you wanted it to go, but no, the most important thing in the world is that you don't confuse some other person's kids whose mom can't go along with the request for the group. because one the SIL had already done that rear end in a top hat move, there were only two choices: be an additional rear end in a top hat in the situation, or let the kids just loving be. yes, it is an unfair choice, unfairly foisted upon the bride by the lovely mom. it's still the choice she had, though. that's life.

Oh please, kids want lots of things, you are not an rear end in a top hat for telling a kid no, they will hear it for the rest of their lives and need to get used to it. Sorry, you don't get a glass of wine, sorry, you don't get to play with knives, sorry you don't get to swim, sorry you don't get to play with the adults at this very expensive and fancy party. Sucks, that's life kid.

Being an rear end in a top hat would have been allowing the kids to remain, demonstrating that those children are exceptional compared to all the others.

Ah yes once people pull the super advanced move of "Ignoring what you asked because they know you'll probably react like this" your only choice is to go along with it for the kids??? If we're talking about a random party sure, if we're talking about someone's wedding with a really explicit request that they went through a bunch of effort to facilitate, then no

I like kids. We want to have one. We enjoy spending time with our nephew, and the nieces we'll meet at Christmas. Kids are never the problem. Parents are the problem. Mom at the wedding needed her extended family to see her kids dancing cutely and soak that up so she could feel good about herself. Toes crushed by a stroller at Disney*? Think a kid was driving it? Kids brought into the adult-only area? They didn't just wander in themselves. Unruly kid in a restaurant? If I acted up in a restaurant I'd have been taken outside until I cooled off. Parents, I know parenting is hard, but we've got a society going on here and part of the social compact is behaving appropriately in public. Maybe ease them up to places with glasses made of glass and non-plastic tablecloths. I can deal with all of that, BTW. It's fine. Kids are going to act out now and then. But... If your plan to keep your kid quiet at dinner is to let them watch Paw Patrol on your phone, please also bring some loving headphones! Not doing so shows your utter disregard for everyone else but you. You knew you were coming. A kid might make some noise. YouTube will definitely make noise and continue to do so throughout the meal, and kids media is designed to be simple to understand and attention getting enough to hold a toddler. It is very difficult to ignore and have an adult conversation over. This continues to not be a problem with children.

I have to wonder if he was like that before they got married as well. There really ought to be some kind of public awareness campaign that tells everyone that marrying someone or having kids with someone will not improve them; if they were a drunken lout or a slovenly game-addict or an abusive rear end in a top hat before, they will be after.

almightyerin posted:Me [31F] with my husband [35M] of 4 years, I'm tired of babysitting him when he gets drunk Divorce his rear end. Go make babies with someone that isn't an alcoholic wreck. I feel a little baffled at 'he can't stop himself until he gets hosed up drunk, but he doesn't drink every day so I dunno if he's an alcoholic?'. If you can't limit/control your intake, that's one of the main issues, not if he does it every day or not. One of my best friends dated a shithead like that for more than three years (she, unfortunately figured he would 'mellow out'). One 4th of July he got so blind shitfaced drunk (at his boss's party) that he knocked over an entire table of food/drinks, kicked in his boss's screen door/dented his front door, and tried jumping in his koi pond. Once we lured him back home, he proceeded to kick a hole in the drywall behind the couch, kicked my boyfriend in the chest (he was trying to hold him down so he'd stop loving things up in the apartment), and I had to resort to punching him in the face because he had a death grip on my arm and was trying to bite me. He ended up pissing himself too. When my friend finally dumped him he went out for Halloween, and ended up in the hospital, needed plates put in his face and had his jaw wired shut, because some guy jumped him 'for no reason'. Everyone knew the reason was he got lovely drunk and tried pulling the wrong poo poo on the wrong person.

Isn't there some stat that's like 10% of people in the US do like 90% of the drinking? So basically the odds are good that if someone drinks at all they drink a lot. Reading that was part of what motivated me to cut back and maybe someday all but quit. I already cut out hard liquor because I could not adequately control how much of it I drank.

Reading that was part of what motivates me to start cutting back and maybe someday all but quit. That stat comes up pretty often. If you have HBO Now or HBO Go, the documentary 'Risky Drinking' is both unsettling and eye-opening. They give a lot of stats during it, and they follow a few people. The first one is some sorority chick that does the weekend binge drinking and cries in club bathrooms. You have the divorced mom that doesn't have a problem, because it's only wine with the girls! (she missed her child's 8th grade graduation because of drinking) the last one is a guy that is so goddamn debilitated by drinking, he has to kill a sixer in his car on his lunch break or his shakes get uncontrollable. It's fuckin' morbid.

Am I [26 F] overreacting to my BF's [28 M] football obsession?quote:I started dating my BF back in March, and, for the most part, things have been great. However, about a week after we became official he warned me that in the fall he generally just spends his weekends watching football...and that's it. I thought it was funny at the time. Have you tried role-playing as John Madden to spice things up?

I [32F] am being forced by my husband [33 M] of 3 years to file bug reports??quote:My husband is an engineer, and we've been together for 3 years, and bought a house together last year. He's always been a tinkerer and I've been fine with it but lately it has gotten out of hand. It started with a smart lock. I don't know why I regular lock wasn't fine, we live in a safe neighbourhood, on the 7th floor in an apartment. I don't think I've ever worried about a break in, but now I need to pull my phone out to unlock a door instead of my keys, and the app is buggy and crashing constantly. He keeps telling me how much better it is because we can remotely unlock our doors, but why would I ever need to do that? When the battery runs out I have to end up using a key anyway, so I don't get the point of this thing, but fine. I lived with it. Oh my good god
