This is an easy solve, you just have to convince her you aren't Shawn by doing the most unShawnlike behavior.

I bet Shawn didn't eat dogfood for dinner.

“Uh Shawn says that since there’s basically two of us in here that it would only be fair to invite another woman into our bed and have a threesome, er I mean a foursome. How would you feel about that I think he makes some pretty good points honestly.”

AITA for thinking formula should come out of my wife’s budget?
u/[deleted]

quote:

She has been breastfeeding for 6 months since the baby was born and now wants to switch to formula. She makes plenty of milk and everything she just says she “feels done.” I think if she wants to stop for basically no reason then the money for formula should come out of her personal spending money because she is the one making that decision. She says I’m an rear end in a top hat and it should come from the family/ grocery budget (which is already tight) even though I don’t have a say.

UPDATE: My girlfriend's dad just pulled a prank on me. How Should I respond?
Original post: https://www.reddit.com/r/relationship_advice/comments/b3d1pj/my_girlfriends_dad_just_pulled_a_prank_on_me_how/



After that prank, I knew that I had to get back at her dad with a prank of my own, which is what I did yesterday. I went over to their house with some brownies that I made and I offered them to her dad since my girlfriend told me that brownies are his favorite dessert. I offered them as an apology for how the last visit went and he ate them along with my girlfriend, who was in on the prank. About 20 minutes later, my dad (who was also in on the prank) called and I put him on speaker phone. He was acting and in a fake panic about what I put in those brownies. I told him that I used basic ingredients and that I also added some unsweetened cocoa powder. He explains that the cocoa powder had rat poison in it since he was using it as a way to bait the rats that had lodged up in our attic.

My girlfriend's dad was listening and he had a complete look of terror on his face and he was looking at my girlfriend, who was eating another brownie. I hung up on my dad and I asked her dad to go get some salt water to flush out the toxins. While he was doing that, my girlfriend put some fake blood in her mouth and when her dad entered the room again, she spits up the fake blood in front of him and she collapses and starts screaming and moaning. She's saying over and over "I don't want to die!" and she was fake crying. Her dad was freaking out and holding on to her while she was on the floor and he clearly didn't know what to do. My girlfriend then starts saying "I can see someone...I see a light....Hi, grandma." I nearly lost it right there and I had turn away to hide my laughter.

I straightened myself up again and reminded her dad that he ate the brownies as well. And I kid you not, he leans into the kitchen sink and sticks his finger down his throat to induce vomiting. He actually did throw up a little and that's when I cut the prank. I told him that it was just a joke and that there was no rat poison. My girlfriend got up laughing, but her dad wasn't amused. He starts yelling about how messed up we are and how he's going to do everything in his power to break us up. He then grabs his keys and just drives off. I haven't heard from him since.

Those preservatives are mostly wood pulp, which is just fiber. So arguably the shredded cheese is a little healthier for you than the same cheese in block form

You heard it here first folks, shoving fistfulls of pre-shredded cheese into your mouth is now officially "good for you". Sorry, I think I'll stick with cheese that is made out of, you know . . . cheese.

QuarkJets posted:

cellulose is an all-natural source of fiber, friend, it's just plant matter

like you ever eaten celery? it's almost all cellulose

Then I'll get my cellulose from celery, not from some garbage rear end cheese with chemically isolated fiber in it. Not to mention that cellulose is just one type of fiber, you need the majority of your fiber from actual fresh foods anyways. This shouldn't be too hard to understand right

QuarkJets posted:

so you're one of those people who's like "what's this, freshly baked bread? heh sorry I only eat all-natural food grown on an organic farm, nothing that has been processed beyond that"

"peanut butter? gently caress that poo poo only raw peanuts and sunflower seeds for me, thanks"

"beer? No thanks I'll ingest the grains and ferment it myself, in my stomach"

The idea that natural foods are better than processed foods is not weird and is in fact correct. Thank you for your time.

Smirking_Serpent posted:

AITA for telling my friend it's weird to give his daughter a Nigerian name when he isn't Nigerian?

One of my best friends from child hood, we'll call hime Jake, is having a baby with his fiance. My friend is biracial (half black half white) but he was entirely raised by his white mom and white step dad. His girlfriend is black, but again she's not Nigerian or from Africa. I am white. I mean no offence to my friend but he grew up around mostly white people and it was only in college when he went through this phase where he started to really try and be more "black" and hang around black people more and behave more about what people "perceive" black people should act like and I kinda think some part of it was an act but whatever. Another note is that his fiance isn't really a huge fan of me and apparently when she first met me she got the impression I was racist. I don't really know why but that kinda soured our relationship but we're friendly and cordial to each other.

​So when I was hanging out with Jake few days ago, he was trying to order monogrammed pillows or something cheesy like that and then revealed that they were naming their daughter Morayo which is a Nigerian name apparently. He kept gushing over the name and I personally just thought it was weird to name your kid a name from a country you know literally nothing about. So I asked "are you sure you want to give your kid a Nigerian name. I mean you guys aren't Nigerian." He seemed offended and said. "Yeah but we're black and we have roots from Nigeria anyway."

So I probably should have let it go but then I said in a mostly joking manner. "So if I took a DNA test and found out I'm like 1% African should I give my kid a Nigerian name?"

Jake got mad and cursed at me a few times and said that tons of "black" names are african or arabic and that I should "mind my own white business" and I had no idea what I was talking about.

He did change the subject after that but I can tell it bothered him. Shortly after his fiance publicly revealed the name on social media and people started gushing about it and his girlfriend made a comment on Facebook about how she was glad they liked it and "some of Jake's friends thought it was too African lol" She knows I follow her and obviously posted that for me to see it.

AITA here? I'm conflicted. Like I didn't think it was a big enough deal for Jake to go rat on me to his GF (who he KNOWS doesn't really like me). But maybe I was out of line to criticize the name choice.

​EDIT: Ok I get it I'm the rear end in a top hat. I'll apologize to my friend and his girlfriend

lmao nice job whitesplaining man. jesus christ, I hope you learned something from all this because you're lucky your buddy still wants to be friends with you after you took the time to explain how HE should feel about his blackness and and how HE should connect with his ancestry. Plus it's a pretty name. Examine your prejudices honestly or gently caress off imho

Some of the comments on that story:

quote:

Commenter; Ok you’re probably not possessed but how loving crazy would it be if you were? That’d be nuts. I think any rational person in this situation would take the first comments advice and talk to her family and leave. Solid advice. It’s what you should do. But. What if you got super into it. Like go see paranormal experts and mediums and poo poo. Not forever. Just like a year or so. Do seances and have crystals and poo poo around your house. Maybe do some heavy psychedelics or dmt a bunch. On the off chance that maybe you could be the spirit vessel/father for your soon-to-be-ex girlfriends dead boyfriend. Like that’s an opportunity that doesn’t come around often. Is it totally unreasonable and insane? Yes absolutely. Is it kinda interesting and might make for a fun adventure to be had when you’re young and a weird story for when you’re old? Also yes

OP: Yeah no.

quote:

Commenter: Are you seriously gonna be jealous of a dead dude? Just go along with the bullshit and draw some boundaries, say Shawn only comes once every 3 weekends when you lose conscience, do roleplay possession Saturdays. Indulge her and do some Patrick Swayze poo poo, move the ouija, push the table with your foot, change your demeanor a bit and gently caress her missionary. All women are certified lunatics, you won't find better. Do you seriously wanna install tinder and date "if you can't handle me at my worst..." Stacy?

If I were you, after having put so much effort into a woman, I'd just go...gently caress it... at least she's cheating on me with me. With time, you'll just tell her he's fading as he's being infused with you. She won't need to say goodbye, because he'll still be present in the many facets of your personality and also be reflected in her sons. Whatever.

OP: ......

Coming back through US Customs at DFW, three THC oil cartridges were found in my bag. I was arrested, charged, and released on my own recognizance. I had a bit of a dramatic week back home and I’m not exactly rolling in the dough anyway, so I missed my court date and didn’t hire a TX lawyer.

I know it’s irrelevant, but it’s simply amazing that I bought these in California legally, and that the only real deciding factor that screwed me for taking them back into the States is because of where my connecting flight was.

I don’t often find reasons to be in Texas. Marijuana will be federally legal before long and this should just be moot anyway, right? Thanks anyone and everyone for your input
