AITA for wanting to stay in tonight and resolve Assassins Creed: Black Flag for like the 20th time instead of dancing/clubbing with my GF for her birthday? We celebrated on her actual bday Tuesday but the party night is tonight. I’ve had a poo poo week at work. I mean like every day there was a major crisis and I am just sick of people. I want to stay in play my comfort video game (AC:Black Flag), stuff myself with Outback takeaway, pop a couple of my oxys I have left over from surgery and just relax (I’m not an addict at all). My girlfriend is an amazing girl, she’s a little high strung but that also translates into being super imaginative and fun, but yes a little high maintence. Her birthday was Tuesday and I took her out to dinner, gave her the exact gift she wanted and we had a really nice quiet time. She also loves to go clubbing and dancing and her friends set up a club night for about 10 of us. I just don’t want to go. I don’t want the noise, I don’t want the people, I don’t want any drama about “this place is lame, let’s walk for 8 blocks and figure out that place is lame too so let’s walk again” and then the inevitable argument getting 11 people to agree if it’s IHOP, Denny’s or Frontier for breakfast at 5:30AM. she is so pissed at me when I told her, like as mad as she’s ever been. She’ll get over it but am I an rear end in a top hat?

Smirking_Serpent posted:AITA for having a confrontation with two 15-year-olds to defend girlfriend's honor? Considering they followed them off the train to try to start poo poo, maybe the girlfriend wasn't leaving just because she was embarrassed (which yeah no poo poo her 26 year old boyfriend yelling at kids for saying poo poo about her she's heard a million times), but was rather removing herself from a small contained space where her boyfriend was about to get into a physical altercation with two kids for saying her tits were nice or she's fat some juvenile poo poo she's heard a million times. Does he think women upstate don't get harassed or something? Because let me tell you from experience, women get harassed in Upstate all the time. It's not all rural farms 10 miles away from each other. And if anything, we have more guys who act tough or have something to prove or think they have to defend their women to be real men or whatever poo poo. So it's not like she hasn't run across that attitude and thinks it's embarrassing because of that. Like, in every way she's the rational, savvy person in this story. I don't know why, but this one is just really irritating me.

MasBrillante posted:“Her son,” the child that lives with me full time. Yuck. That pronoun slip loving always gets lovely step-parents. I always look out for it. Often it's a little slip once in the middle of everything, they go "our child" until it's suddenly "her child" just once. I did not have to look hard in this one, Jesus.

He does have a legitimate concern with the pool, though. If anything happens, they can be sued. We have the steepest driveway in the neighborhood, with the most concrete to park the trailer. All the kids loved skateboarding on it, but we had to stop them because if anything happened, lawsuit city.

As a kid who grew up with skateboarding the parents of kids who skateboard are by and large too busy chainsmoking and and making terrible investments in crypto currency to sue anyone over their kids (they didn't even know where I was most of the time )

I have always encouraged my stay-at-home husband to participate in our local community. For me, to do anything else would be unthinkable. He stays at home, tends to the itinerant twinks, and participates as both a performer and enforcer at the Drag Queen Story Time hosted by our local library. When he's not busy with that he works with local youth, almost exclusively disadvantaged straights who were dealt a poor hand in life. As successful homosexuals who have benefited immensely from society we feel it is our obligation to give back. I am proud that my financial work allows my husband to provide our community with leadership, protection, and the opportunity to enrich the lives of the straights I hope to eventually gentrify out of out of our neighborhood. I believe the straights of any community should leave better people than when we found them.

I think my favourite part is quote:He accused me of having “daddy issues,” which is really ridiculous because Giuseppe is older than my dad and really the opposite every way (for example he loves outdoor activities, which my dad HATES, and also my dad is a successful attorney instead of being homeless). This is a close second: quote:Sure, he'll support fair housing laws and talk a big game about helping the disadvantaged, he even listens to Woody Guthrie, but when a homeless person sleeps with somebody he cares about, he freaks out.

She is a great story weaver, on a macro and micro level. You could tell the impetus, "I saw this old man panhandling, turns out I hosed him when I was a teenager, and let me tell you, his hog was huge. So I gave him $5." But that doesn't keep the reader hooked.

She specifically mentions he was a regular at a soup kitchen she was volunteering at unless I'm completely misreading between the lines on her post. Anne Whateley posted:When gilding the lily goes too far This is completely incorrect, because... Hellblazer187 posted:I don't know about that. The insurance company will fight saying she ran an unlicensed day care. Insurance rates for a daycare are presumably higher than ordinary homeowners insurance. The liability issue is a huge, legitimate issue and they should talk to an attorney is they plan to keep doing it. ...essentially when an insurer agrees to cover you if you execute the policy in bad faith (eg don't mention a home office with thousands of dollars of business property, don't disclose an unlicensed not-for-profit daycare being run out of the home, don't disclose a pit bull breeding operation in your back yard, etc.) their obligation to cover you in a loss is minimal at best and in some stats leaves you open to the carrier suing you for fraud/material misrepresentation at worst. "Lying by omission" is not something insurance companies are a big fan of.

Whether or not they have their son's friends over, teenagers could still sneak over and swim at night or when they're out of town, and that's a good way to get screwed.

The reader wants a great love story where she runs from limpy-dick Mordechai back to Giuseppe, whom she rescues by bringing to a hotel where he can get cleaned up before going to her place where they live happily ever after.

Do you think that the parent of a dead kid isn't going to be like, "we sent him over there every day instead of to the sitter/summer school/grandma's house because she said she'd watch him for free and we thought he'd be safe there," and that the cops/insurance companies/lawyers aren't going to look into it at all?
