AITA for making my daughter clean the bathrooms with her toothbrush as a punishment? My daughter Brittany got detention today. Apparently, she and her friends were talking about careers and she said something like “imagine being something like a plumber or a custodian”. They then went on to mock those with those professions and specifically, Brittany said “wow, I would rather be dead then pick up garbage and poo poo all day”. Her classmate overheard them and reported all of them to the teacher because she was offended (her dad works as a plumber). Her teacher made her apologize to her but to go one step further, I wanted humble her. I made her clean all the bathrooms with a toothbrush (obviously bought her a new one afterwards). It took about 5 hours total and afterwards, we had a talk about respect and how it’s disrespectful to mock any profession, no matter what it is. I thought I’d done a pretty good job at disciplining her, but my wife came home (she works 15 hour shifts 3 days a week, so doesn’t get home until very late Tuesday-Thursday). She was very angry and thought the punishment was way too far. I disagreed; she acted like a brat who believed certain professions were beneath her, and I wanted to humble her. We normally agree almost 100% regarding punishments, so I didn’t even think to ask her (which she does the same for me whenever she’s disciplining our children). AITA for the way I went about punishing her? Edit: I appreciate the discussion guys! I just wanted to add that I thought of a toothbrush and not normal cleaning supplies, because that would've taken an hour max, and she already cleans as apart of her daily chores. Telling her to do her normal chores as a punishment doesn't seem like a that big a punishment. Just wanted to put this here because a lot of comments are asking "why a toothbrush?"

AITA for throwing up on my friends floor and blocking him? so I've been vegetarian for 7 years and I've been pretty happy with my decision. I never felt like anyone disliked me because I went vegetarian. onto the issue I had gone over to a friends house and brought some vegetarian sausages, my mate was going to cook them up and we would have a movie night. I thought my sausages looked odd but had never had this brand before, it was not the most appetizing and it tasted kinda gross but i kept on eating. half an hour later I started to feel Ill so I asked him if he cooked them properly. he started laughing and told me he gave me a meat sausage, I started gagging and ran to the bathroom to throw up, I did not make it and he ended up with throw up on his carpet. he got mad and told me I would have to pay for his carpet to be replaced. I told him that he needed to apologize for feeding me meat and then I might consider replacing the carpet. he told me the meat sausage thing was a joke. I grabbed my poo poo and walked out his door, and had to walk home (20 minute walk) because of how sick I felt. i also threw up on my way home. I've now not gotten an apology just him repeatedly massaging me about his carpet being replaced. so I blocked him. AITA? edit thanks for all of the messages. I feel so much better knowing I did nothing wrong. 😁😁 I might unblock him and try and see if we can part on good terms.

Even f you think someone's being a trendy "Oh please no not gluten" baby, never gently caress with their food or their dietary habits. Never. gently caress. With. Someone's. Food. Shame that guy didn't top deck the dude's toilet before he left.

The guy feeding meat to a vegetarian is inexcusable, but vomiting over the idea of eating meat is extreme. Reminds me of the cheesy potato lady gagging when presented with a vegetable.

I don't know for sure, but I think you can't really go from 100% vegetarian to eating meat in one swoop. It fucks with your stomach to shift the gears like that.

She didn’t vomit over the thought of meat; she clearly vomited because her digestive system was upset AND she was disgusted. Also, it is normal to be disgusted when you think you are eating one thing and find out you are eating another. For instance, try feeding someone toothpaste and telling them it’s ice cream (don’t do that). Toothpaste isn’t unpalatable, but it would make plenty of people ill to chomp on a mouthful thinking it was vanilla bean.

Giving someone meat when they aren't used to eating meat can gently caress with their stomach badly.

It fucks with your stomach to shift the gears like that. Sometimes it does. Seems like it did in this case. I've known some people who did it after years of vegetarianism and it worked out just fine. Honestly I think she should sue him. He's going to sue over the carpet, might as well hit him first. A few additional notes: Toothbrush dad - NTA. Non debate lady* - NTA, also awesome. Big high five. Bar Society party crasher - Is the rear end in a top hat, guillotine. Hitler painting destroyer - NTA Hitler painting brother - rear end in a top hat. Guillotine. Door lock lady - NTA Non-door lock inlaws - Draw and quarter. *Not clear from the story if it's a lady, but generally these devil's advocate dorks are most aggressive with women.

Hagop posted:So locks work 0% of the time when there is no one around to stop or even see someone taking a spitting ax to your door, throwing a brick through your window, or using a big truck and a chain to rip whatever you thought was keeping your house safe off your house. People in small towns and backwoods like to yuck it up about it being too quiet to lock a door, but the fact is that it just doesn't help a lot of the time. So why have to replace your door and your tv when the local meth head hit your house before being busted by the county sheriff trying to pawn their stolen goods off at a church yard sale. The point isn’t that a lock can stop an assault team with breaching charges from stealing your stuff, because that doesn’t happen in real life. The point is that you avoid becoming a target because there is a type of opportunistic criminal that won’t take a fire axe to a random door but will try a bunch of doorknobs in passing. Testing doors is no risk because they can say a friend invited them over and they thought this was the house. The problem is if they see something to steal and get caught taking it, or see a sleeping woman, they may commit more crimes than just theft. Crimes which could have been prevented by locking the drat door in the first place to keep them out, the literal purpose of the door. Do you take the guards off your saw also to make it lighter?

AITA for making friends with my ex-husband's now second ex-wife (the same one he cheated on me with and subsequently married)? I've also given her a job.quote:in 2013 I was a very happy 40 year old stay at home mom, convinced I was married to the perfect man. In 2014 I was a divorced single mom scrambling to figure out how to make ends meet as the "perfect man" was pulling every dirty legal trick available in order to get me to sign the divorce that was happening because he'd been having an affair with his 26 year old rock climbing partner. I held firm on the divorce settlement demands, started my own landscaping business and got very fortunate and became self sufficient. Ex had two kids with his new wife, who I was reluctant to admit were my own kids siblings.

I still can't believe I got out of it. The judge was laughing at every one of his dumb jokes, the guy was a local lawyer superstar. I'm not sure how he's doing now, though, cocaine is a hell of a drug and all... edit: "Got out of it" means I was looking at 5 years time max, got out with a meaningless probation that amounted to "hey, don't be stupid again!". I thanked all the gods I don't believe in and felt like someone handed be a get out of jail free card. In exchange of coke. God bless Canada.
