AITA for leaving a negative review of a restaurant that does Russian roulette with peppers. Two peppers are 8/10 levels of spicy and the rest are normal. Not warned.

AITA for lying to my boyfriend about when an event starts?

Is that the Coyote Cafe? I also haven’t been there in ten years or so

I love to cook so we host dinners fairly regularly and there's nothing worse than when someone shows up early. If I could choose, I would have everyone show up 10-15 minutes late.

She shouldn’t feel bad at all, that dude is the type of person who drives me insane

My mother and brother were like that (brother still is). Then she'd yell at us because we were running late.

On my way to my HS graduation, she was bitching about it, and threatened to turn the car around because I yelled 'You were the one spending all afternoon watching Law and Order, not us!'

Jesus. My family is the opposite. If we have a flight at noon my dad will suggest getting to the airport by 7:30 am

Oh that's just a universal dad thing. If the airport's half an hour away I'll bet he makes you go out the door at 5 a.m. to "beat traffic" too

I like how this guy's takeaway from this is 'you must be a HIDEOUS LIAR!!!!!1!' and not 'holy poo poo I'm so loving slow I need to be lied an hour in advance to get anywhere on time'

I'm anxiety-ridden about being on time so I compromise; get there early, sit in my car with a book until it's time.

The lady correctly ended things with the Virginity Checker

First of all thank you so much for all the replies, I didnt think this would get so big. I have read pretty much all of them (special shout out goes to the person who says this was fake solely on the fact that I write like a man, whatever that means XD)

Also thanks for all the gold and silver, it's appreciated although if you wanna spend money give it to charity or something.


I went and talked to him this morning I told him that his father is not going to look at me and he needs to respect that. He was adamant that it needs to happen and accused me about lying about my virginity. I was trying to be calm and rational but he was not having it and just became more and more angry. I told him if he really loved me he would stand by me on this and tell his father no to which he slapped me and said he didnt need to prove anything.

so I ended it and left him. I am currently back at my friends house being miserable and eating pizza which is pretty fun.

so yup. Thanks everyone :)

Uh no, physical violence as a reaction to "you need to stand by your fiancee not your dad" is not about the same. Jesus

so you didn't read like any of the half dozen articles talking about how restaurant owners are doing exactly this and the labor pool is still tight, huh

workers don't just magically appear from thin air, there is such a thing as "everyone who works in this industry already has a job in this industry" and this includes skilled labor like line cooks and semi-skilled labor like floor servers

i know it can seem like a cosmic mystery but turns out that foodservice is high turnover for a number of reasons not related to pay, the jobs are extremely fungible and when everyone is trying to open a restaurant it will hoover up the restaurant labor pool real fast

e: if you decide to reply to this post please, for the sake of everyone, don't just repeat yourself again about how you are aware that higher wages attract more labor like it is secret knowledge

Like the time I ordered duck tongues in china and didn't know that duck tongues... had bones... and you ate the bones... that was fun... but now I laugh about it. Reacting to a surprising and/or negative cultural experience by being instantly angry is just the sign of a dullard.

My sister (26) is a secondary school teacher. She's always been a bit of a character; she's on the spectrum and can be very awkward and obsessive. When we were teenagers, one of the things she got really obsessed with was gay characters from TV shows and stuff, which I thought she's grown out of, but apparently not.

She lives in a different town to me, so we don't talk much, but recently I found out through a woman at my church (whose nephew goes to my sister's school) that she is "out" at school, and runs a support group for gay students. This was a total shock to me, as she isn't gay. She's never dated a woman or suggested she wants to.

I'm worried that she maybe doesn't realise this isn't an "okay" thing to fake, and it could negatively affect her personal life or the kids she works with. Also, I just think it's wrong to lie. WIBTA if I contacted the school to tell them she's actually straight?

quote:

We lived together growing up, and she never gave any indication that she was gay. Plus, I'm sure she's had crushes on men. She went through a really long phase of being obsessed with Alan Cumming.

I made a post yesterday but forgot my password so I made a new alt.

Okay so I am a huge Marvel nerd. The kind of nerd that Cosplays, goes to cons and draws her own stuff. Mostly fanservice.

My sister ridicules my hobby saying that it's pathetic and "retarded". She claims I am delusional as a grown woman playing dress up.

Besides that we have a good relationship. We are not friends but sisters if that makes sense.

So 3 years ago I managed to safe up enough to go to a con in the USA and meet the real Stan Lee! He signed one of my own pictures I did of the big 3 and complimented it. It's was one of the best days of my life. Since then the signed picture has always been on my wall.

Flash forward. A few weeks ago my sister asks for my jacket and I tell her no. Reason being that she was a bitch to me the whole week. She pouted and I left the house.

When I come back is see my loving Stan Lee autograph ripped up on the flor! I loving lost it. Then my sister came in and started teasing me (look at that grown rear end woman crying over a piece of paper). When she saw that I was for real distressed she started saying that it was just a piece of paper that I can get a new one.

I pushed her out of my room and have been extremely short with her since. She tries to engage in conversation but I shoot her down. She tries to bribe me with movie tickets and I tell her to go with her boyfriend etc. She hasn't apologized for it. She just says that I should be over it by now.

My mom says the same. She says a materialistic things shouldn't come In between family and that I should simply let it go. My dad is also really mad at sister and by extention mom. He is as big on Marvel as me and he was livid when he found out. This whole ordeal is literally splitting our family apart.

My mother and sister think i am being unfair by not letting go and I think they both disrespected me. Mom is mad at dad for not "talking sense into me and taking my side" and dad is mad at mom for "failing to punish my sister and spoiling her"

I feel awfully guilty but also raging mad. Can somone help me with this?

Edit :thanks guys for listening to me. I feel a lot better. I will take what many of you said and I am going to send them examples of how much Stan Lee's autograph costs. But I think I have to word it very good so that they don't think that I would "split up the family over money"

The toilet in our apartment is flooding our bathroom with the whole building's sewage again. Last time they lent us a fan to dry the carpet. Anything I can do to insist they replace the carpet? Who even puts carpet in a bathroom? (TN)
