Also honestly I have a real hard time having any sympathy for a dude who, by his own account, started 90% of these fights. And for really stupid reasons. If he wasn't a skinny weakling, dude probably would have murdered someone by now.

i vomit kittens posted:AITA for putting up a girl's name as the WIFI Name? Okay, so honestly I have no idea whats going on here. Why wouldnt he just say that he did like her but got over it? Why would putting her name as the Wifi name be any sort of revenge? Why would she get so angry about this? A little weirded out I understand, but 5 years on and still pissed? Why would his current not girlfriend give two shits.

chitoryu12 posted:It's a hell of a dedication to trolling if it is. It's been going on for 7 months in various subreddits. I remember years ago some throwaway account on reddit posted how she and her fiancé broke up after an argument when his dad passed. The OP described herself as a staunch feminist and hated the fiancé's dad cause he was sexist, had sexy lady calendars and a large car collection, and car culture was sexist, blah blah blah. When the dad died, fiancé inherited the cars and OP demanded he sell the cars and get rid of the rest of his belongings because it was all "misogynistic" to her. Long story short, fiancé dumps OP and throws a party, leaving the bitter feminist out in the rain. While a lot of people used this as proof that all feminists were joyless man-hating harpies who could not stop injecting their politics into everything, other people called this story and woman fake. Mostly because of how over-the-top she was in calling eveything sexist and everyone she hated a shitlord, and how perfectly on-the-nose she gets screwed over in the end. I bring up this story because despite the blatant fakeness of it all, the writer behind the story continued to use that throwaway account for years and chronicle their descent into being a rabid misandrist. The OP put forth gems like she was now a political lesbian, because all men rape and no woman could ever rape. So how could she, a woman, be assaulting her new girlfriend, under that logic. Raising boys was teaching them to be rapists, and so forth. The writer had maintained their troll account of feminist caricature for many years until the account either got deleted or banned. So don't underestimate people's dedication to the craft.

cumshitter posted:He may have money. I think what she's saying is that his Social Security income equals hers. Although if his Social Security income is equal to the income that a presumably unskilled and uneducated 20 year old makes then he probably wasn't a fantastic earner. Money gained through inheritance wouldn't affect that though. Pretty good reason to attack someone!

AITA for withholding my husband's wage so he doesn't buy fast food and get fatter and fatter? My husband and I are in our mid thirties, we've been married a year, together for 4ish and have a newborn son. I have another 15 year old son from a previous marriage. When we met he was overweight, but in a kind of cute/husky way. He overeats, a lot. We're now in obese territory and it's bothering me. A lot. I feel like I've exhausted all options: I cook healthy food, suggest we exercise together, etc. I'm a former ballet dancer and have "skinny genes", but of course, I watch what I eat and do yoga and dancing. After finding a mountain of fast food wrappers in his car and in the trash for the millionth time I announced that I was taking his wages. Here's some snippits from the conversation: Him: How will I buy gas? Me: We'll fill up your tank together on Sundays But what if I get hungry? I'll pack you more healthy lunches I work really hard...I've earned that money. Yeah, man, think how much you'll save not buying 10 tacos every day. ..... I pack his lunch every day, he gets takeout on the way to work and on the way home every single day. I love this guy, I don't want him to feel poo poo. I've been married before, my first husband died when he was 30 from brain cancer, he never got to see his son grow up, I don't want that to happen again. He's on some medication for bipolar disorder, he blames that for his weight gain. But I just don't buy that because he eats sooooooo much crap. He also has some self esteem issues as he is a cop but had to take on different duties after getting diagnosed with mental illness. This happened just before we met and I supported him, he's been stoked becoming a dad and getting married. He's American and I am Australian so we do have some mild cultural clashes. I haven't told him I'm finding him unattractive but I am. It's unhealthy and gross. He's not interested in our finances, I pay all our bills out of our accounts and run the household, I also work full time but am on maternity leave with pay till September. Of course if he needs or wants anything that isn't food related I will buy it for him, I just feel I have to dish out some tough love here to help this drongo lose some weight. AITA? UPDATE: Thanks everyone for your advice. If it will help anyone sleep tonight I have handed myself over to the authorities and am writing this from prison. The hemlines on the uniform are all wrong for me but I'm just glad I'm off the streets. I'm being deported tomorrow and I think Margot Robbie should play me in the biopic. Jokes aside, I opened myself up for judgement on the world wide web and that's what I've got. I read all the comments and I appreciate everyone's views and personal experiences. I ended up speaking to my husband a couple of hours ago and I'm feeling a whole lot better. He doesn't think I'm an rear end in a top hat or an abuser and his opinion is the most important one. Xo

WIBTA if I took one kid on a trip but not the other? I just got a new position in my company that will require me to undergo 2 weeks of training in California. My family lived there for 5 or so years before moving to Texas in 2017. Both of my kids (15F and 21M) still have many friends there. They asked if they could come with me so they could visit friends that they haven't seen in a few years. I told them that I’d think about it. I only want to take my daughter with me because my son has a part time job (20h/week at $8/hr) that he can use to buy his own plane ticket. Here’s where I might be an a-hole. I’m allowed to take up to 3 guests on the company dime, so there is no difference between taking one or both kids. Also, my son has a $180/month car payment and we charge him $120/month for rent so making him pay for his own ticket might be financially tough on him. quote:Point I'm trying to make (although I haven't told him yet) is that he'd actually have some savings if he followed my suggestion of not going out to eat all the time.

WIBTA for declining an invitation to a wedding solely because of gift revealance?quote:Might made the title sound odd because you know, english... I have gotten an invite to a wedding, which I already accepted but am now thinking to decline, after I found out, the newlyweds will be revealing all the gifts from everyone to everyone. It is a tradition from a country where the groom is from (I was invited because of my connection with the bride). The wedding will be in our country where we do not have this tradition. Nevertheless the couple decided to follow this tradition on everyone, no matter which county they're from and who they're related with. The couple also stated they want nothing as gifts but money. I am pissed because they're being "give us money and then we'll tell everyone how much you gave", making it a competition on who will be more generous. Because of that, I am thinking to simply decline the invitation. WIBTA?

Seed money is more beneficial for a newlywed couple than three copies of the same Quisinart or whatever random poo poo they accidentally fatfingered onto their wedding registry. Also, yes, it is a competition of generosity. Just throw the couple the ~$50 you were going to spend on a normal wedding gift and bring shame upon your ancestors as it is revealed before your peers that you are lacking in both wealth and honor. It’s not a tradition your culture gives a poo poo about, so I’m not sure what the problem is.

AITA for jokingly comparing my dad to Hitler? Last night at dinner my mom told my wife the following, with some paraphrasing for clarification: "You know, even though our son didn't have the best father growing up, you should still thank us because your husband wouldn't exist without us." To which I answered: "You should also thank Hitler since without him my Jewish grandparents would have never met." My mom, who is the daughter of said holocaust survivors, didn't appreciate my comment and called me an Idiot. My mom's comment didn't come out of nowhere. For the last two weeks my family, wife and 2 young sons, have been road tripping with my parents all over the US. They came to visit us from a different country. At some point last week my 9 yo had a meltdown in a restaurant that required me to take him outside where he could play out his tantrum. Being familiar with my son, I know there is no reasoning with him when he is that wound up and that he just needed to calm down on his own terms. My dad felt it was necessary to comment that his kids (aka me and my siblings) would never behave that way because of the way he raised us, implying that I'm parenting wrong. That opened up Pandora's box which I was trying very hard, for the better part of the trip, to keep shut. My dad was an awful father. He constantly threatened us with physical violence and some times he would hit us over the stupidest poo poo. He was extremely controlling and made us feel like we can't do anything without him. In addition to all that, he was, and still is at times, verbally abusive to my mother. I still vividly remember him smashing a plate of food on the floor that my mom served him because he was upset about what he was being served. He is correct that I would never act like my 9 yo. Because I was afraid of him. but at the same time, I hated my dad most of my childhood. I didn't love my dad and still struggle with it some days. I love my kids and the relationship we have which is built upon mutual respect. In my mind, my mom implying that my dad is not so bad because he made me is the same as saying that we should thank Hitler since I would never have existed without his actions. Am I an rear end in a top hat?

Pretend I just bolded the whole thing because drat AITA for thinking my (30f) bf (28m) is being unreasonable in regards to sex? quote:Bf and I have been having relationship problems. For him, he says it all boils down to sex. He has a very high drive and mine is low. He argues if the sex is good, then all the other relationship problems will fix themselves. He struggles with it and it's affecting his ability to function. I 100% agree. He's almost a completely different person when he's struggling. In the pst, I made promises to go out of my way to be more intimate/attractive, but those plans usually derail as I feel like I'm being fake or pressured into something I want to enjoy (I'm definitely TA here for promising then not delivering).

Ok repeatedly-beaten fucko, if he is for real, seems to be leaving out something(s) that would explain why all these people somehow jump straight to "give me money or else". It can't be just that he has money, what the gently caress did you say and/or do that everyone assumes they can just siphon money out of you so easily? The same way he leaves out some inconvenient details behind the line "refusing to let her leave". She brought pepper spray to go and get her poo poo back... Anyway, if he's for real, I guess this is a drop in the bucket of all his hosed up behaviors.

I think he only lost money to three actual people robbing him: two guys mugged him and the one who set him up took his money after he tried to attack her over it. Everyone else is just content to choke him out and bash his face into the ground. And at least his Tinder date has the capitalist skills to get some money out of not sending the cops to pick this dude up.
