As the Chinese proverb states: "A man who never eats pork bun is never a whole man." Guy should eat what he wants. She can get mcdonalds and watch him demolish some amazing street food. Edit: then he should try that weird preserved bird egg thing.

Something about seeing people eat shrimp really grosses me out. I'm not sure what it is, I've even eaten shrimp and don't hate it. So naturally, if I'm with friends and they have shrimp, I get extremely angry at them for eating something that grosses me out.* actually I just don't look at them eating it, and carry on as normal except I stay looking at the TV or whatever instead.

There's foods I'm not the biggest fan of but I'll try just about anything. Off the top of my head I the only things I can think of that I draw the line at would be like, brains, human flesh, and that one maggot cheese where you have to hold your hand over the bowl because they jump at you. Unsurprisingly this has yet to become an issue in my life.

Casu marzu is illegal so you probably won’t run into that. Although I’m sure it’s available on the black market somewhere for anyone who’s desperate to try. Same for human flesh too maybe! I’d give brain a try, as long we’re not talking human brain. I don’t want one of those crazy diseases.

yeah the "their produce is UNCLEAN" thing made me think that she's more of a racist than a standard variety picky eater. It's really sad, because food is the oldest and most important component of human culture. It is completely impossible to appreciate Hong Kong or anywhere else if you don't try the food.

This is a thing, and it's common, mostly with people in the mid to early 20s who feel that they are underachievers + some special sort of crazy/broken to lie like this. I've inadvertently busted MULTIPLE people doing this. One so brazenly that they tried to include me in their story while I was there, me as a (very former) FF/Medic, to confirm that they worked in the ER. And they did.......but not in any kind of capacity they were claiming. (this was a "I am a trauma nurse" vs. the reality of "I make coffee for you guys when I hear you're on radio and coming in and also restock your truck while you do paperwork") Seeing the update after you posted this and wow.... you loving nailed it.

AITA for telling my gay wife that she is not welcome to our family events anymore? My wife came out of the closet a couple of years ago. She was actually cheating on me with another woman and it was exposed. She admitted to the cheating, told me that she was gay and decided to give me full custody of our daughter (8f) because she wanted to explore her nature. She visited our daughter like 5 times in these couple of years. She even missed her birthday last year and my daughter got very upset. We were married for 13 years, so she was very close to my family. Now, my wife suddenly had an epiphany and felt that she had to be a part of my daughters life now. She feels really sorry for what she's done. So, my wife wants to attend our family events like barbeques and dinners we have on weekends now. No one from my family is particularly keen on meeting up with her. So I told her that she was not welcome. I told her that I'd have no problem having her over for birthdays or other major events, but I definitely don't want to see her every weekend. She thinks I'm being very inconsiderate and I should understand her POV because coming out was really difficult for her. In my opinion, she only came out because I caught her cheating on me for over an year. That was just deciet. And she never even cared for these couple of years. Also, I don't want to be buddies with her. AITA here?

AITA for saying “There goes the neighborhood” to my new Middle Eastern neighbors?quote:The meth heads who lived next door disappeared some time a few months ago and I came home from work Friday to see new people moving their things in. My wife and I walked over to say hello and I jokingly said as we walked up “well there goes the neighborhood.” They kinda laughed, but admittedly awkwardly and we introduced ourselves and they introduced themselves and etc etc. They were very nice, but when we mentioned we often have barbecues and a few of the neighbors join us, they seemed to make excuses for why they probably wouldn’t be able to make it. No big deal. We came home and as soon as we were in the door, my wife rounded on me saying how hosed up it was that I said “there goes the neighborhood because they are middle eastern people!” It honestly never even entered my mind what race they were except maybe in a passing thought. We live in a very diverse city with a lot of Hispanic and middle eastern people, (but admittedly a kinda white neighborhood) and they just seemed like people moving in next door. The whole joke stemmed from the fact that the people who lived there before were crazy and on drugs and homophobic (they told us all about it) and the new people seemed like a normal family. I didn’t end up mentioning this to the new neighbors though, but only because I didn’t want to seem like I was talking about people behind their backs. I still think without the context, the joke was fine, but my wife is insisting that it was distasteful and racist and makes me look like the racist white guy next door. I think she’s being way too sensitive and she’s the one who is singling out people by even imagining they would be offended by it. So AITA for saying “There goes the neighborhood” to the Middle Eastern family moving in next door? You dumb gently caress

AITA for being furious with my fiancé because he's excited about Game of Thrones tonight when my grandfathers funeral was just on Friday? I will say up front, I am devastated and may not be thinking rationally. My grandfather raised me for several years off and on after my mom died and my dad was in the Navy. He is one three people (the other's being my dad and fiancé) that I truly love the most on the planet. He was absolutely fine on April 18th, on April 19th he had a massive heart attack and was gone instantly. I am literally beside myself with grief. We had planned on spending the summer driving around the area where he grew up in Northern Louisiana so he could show me where he was born, where he went to school and on and on. I am beside myself that among everything else we won't be taking this trip and I'm in the middle of cancelling reservations and have to explain that my grandfather died over and over to hotels and airlines. It's just a constant reminder of how sad I am. This comes after planning a funeral, going to the funeral, dealing with hundreds of people telling me how sad they are and on and on. My fiancé had been really great through the whole process and was a lot of help to me and my dad. I have to give him that. But this morning I was literally on the phone with United Airlines trying to explain why we won't be going on the trip, asking if "proof of death" is really necessary. In the other room I heard my fiancé on the phone with someone and he said "I am so loving excited about game of thrones tonight, I haven't been looking forward to something like this for months!" I lost my poo poo, like literally hung up with the airlines and started screaming at him that not only are we getting married and he should be looking forward to that and plus what the gently caress, my grandfather just died and he has the nerve to be pulling this poo poo with me now. After all I'd been through in the past two weeks to hear him say that the thing he is "most" excited about is a loving TV show? I kicked him out of the apartment and told him I never wanted to see him again (which of course isn't true). He just texted me that he's giving me some time to chill out and he'll come home whenever I'm ready to see him again. Now that he said that and didn't get mad at me, I feel really bad. Am I an rear end in a top hat or am I just not thinking clearly because of grief?

AITA because I stopped to get breakfast when my pregnant wife couldn't eat. My wife was pregnant, we were going to a scan, or something, which meant she wasn't allowed to eat for a prolonged period of time before, few hours, but because the scan was first thing (09:00) in the morning she hadn't eaten since since about 19:00 the previous day. The plan was that I would go to the scan with her, then take her home and then go straight to work. I didn't have any annual leave left to take so my boss told me I could go but I'd have to work though lunch to work it back and stay late to make up if it took longer than an hour. So I knew I potentially wouldn't have time to pick up anything to eat until 18:30 - 19:00. So on the way to the scan I called into McDonald's drive thru to get breakfast because there was nothing in the house. My wife flipped out, calling me selfish and inconsiderate and cried a lot. I explained to her why but she didn't care, she said I was being unsupportive and selfish. I don't think I was wrong, if the roles were reversed i would positively insist that someone I care about get breakfast. Was I being an rear end in a top hat ? Quick update There was no possibility of me going after, I had to go right to work, only had a bit of time before because we left 10 minutes early. what's really weird is that based on the comments, this happened five years ago, but OP posted it today. So he must really be holding onto a grudge...
