AITA for pretending to get fired when customers get a temper with me? I am a high schooler with a weekend job at a coffee shop. My coworkers who work weekends are: James - the owners son, he goes to my school. He's a shift manager but it's not a real formal thing, he's a friendly guy. Danielle - A college student who sometimes works weekends too. So sometimes customers will come in and just be angry about such little stuff. Like literally blow up about nothing. I dunno if theyre in a bad mood already and looking for someone to take it out on or what, but it's a lot... Like how sad so your have to be to be a grown-rear end man taking your anger out on high school and college kids. So James and I were joking about having a little fun with them and hopefully getting them off our backs. So one day I was at work and some guy was having a temper about how we don't make the coffee hot enough... Which I couldn't do a thing about because I gave it to him right out of the machine. So James came in and was like "sir is there a problem here" and the guy started ranting at him too. So he was just like "OP, this is unacceptable, you're fired." I started acting real sad, like "no please don't fire me, my family needs the money, I need this job, pleaseeee" and he played up being a hard-rear end, telling me to take off my apron and leave. The angry guy started to backtrack, like "It isn't that big of a problem, you don't need to fire her over it. I didn't mean it" and James was like "No, we pride ourselves on the best customer service" Of course after all that drama I still had my job, we were just acting. And we've done it a couple times, whenever a customer will lose their temper at Danielle or I, James will storm in and "fire" us. And almost every time, the person who had come in angry will apologise and say that they didn't mean it. It's kind of satisfying, making people realize their actions might actually have consequences. Anyway, I was telling my friends from school about this and a few of them thought it was a mean prank, to let someone go away thinking they'd gotten someone who desperately needs the money fired. AITA for this joke?

Eventually they'll get the truly spiteful and vindictive Karen/Chad who will start laughing and berating the firee for not listening to them and mock their fake sadness. They need a gameplan, like James fires her and she storms to the back, then Danielle comes over and fires James he storms off, then OP comes from the back with a name tag that says "Manager" and fires Danielle, then James comes out with a name tag that says "Director" and so on until the person leaves.

WIBTA for wearing a shirt about my fake boobs? I'm in my second year of a 3 year literature course. I've got breast implants. They don't look super fake but my natural boobs were pretty big (D cup) and asymmetrical. I got implants that were a little bigger (DD) and more symmetrical. I did this solely because I had a double mastectomy due to the early stages of breast cancer. I've lost several relatives to it so when they saw early stages I said to just remove the tissue entirely because I didn't want to risk it. Disclaimer: I absolutely do not judge anyone getting implants for a non medical reason, especially as I got mine to look more symmetrical and got them in the next size up, which was entirely due to cosmetic reasons, but the fact I would not have got implants to begin with if not for my cancer scare is relevant to the question. There is a note on my student file saying I have had early stages of breast cancer and it has brief notes on the medical stuff (double mastectomy and implants). I was having some issues healing so there were concerns that I could accidentally tear something in a lecture, and I had to miss uni for check ups to make sure that they got it all, so I had to have a meeting with a member of the campus medical team and they put the note on my file before second year started. 5 of my 6 lecturers asked me if I'm alright due to the reasoning for my surgery, which they said they read on my file, and after a brief talk have never brought it up again. The remaining lecturer has said some stuff about my boobs (but not the cancer scare). The issue is, none of it is direct. She'll be giving a talk on the role of a female character and then she'll go off on a tangent about how women change themselves to cater to men and she'll find some way to work breast implants into her speech, usually saying falsies are a product of the patriarchy or something. She'll be looking at me the whole time she talks. She's never directly talked to me about it, but I'm the only person in class with fake boobs and the number of times she mentioned them before my surgery is almost non existent compared to how many times she's mentioned them post surgery (always in non relevant contexts). At first it made me uncomfortable, but now we're nearly at 3 months of this and it's really pissing me off. One of my friends jokingly got me some novelty t shirts when I had the surgery. She never thought I'd wear them but I'm seriously considering wearing one specific shirt. The shirt reads: "Yes, these are fake. The real ones tried to kill me!" with a graphic of the pink breast cancer ribbon. I would never do this normally, but I feel like showing up, sitting in my seat, and unzipping my jacket when she next mentions boob jobs might shut her up, or at least make her feel a little bad. She's the head of the department, and the whole school of arts/humanities, and I have classes with her every term until spring 2021. This would be very passive aggressive so I want to check if I'd be going too far before I did it. WIBTA?

Head of the dept? Well that's a complaint that will go nowhere. An OpEd in the school paper, however... Might as well just stand up and say you had a mastectomy and have the issue go nuclear.

AITA for rigging a DnD to purposely put a player in their place? Okay, so I picked up DnD because I wanted to find more common ground with my husband (who is really sick, so I figured we would do something to cheer him up!) Since then, I've been dubbed DM because apparently I'm the only one in the group that can do any sort of research. (We are all really really new to the game). Well, there are usually five of us. and we are working on a home-brewed campaign. It's about the group of adventures who are supposed to help a woodfey figure out why the area is being burned and becoming sick. This should lead to a dragon being controlled by an unknown old god. I do a lot of improvising because I don't like killing the players, but I still want them to feel danger. Well, now this one player is acting like an rear end in a top hat and argues about everything with me. Wants to murder all the NPC, or steal from them all the time because he's a rogue. Finally, I've had enough when he kept trying to "stealth" (disappearing like in WoW) in the middle of battle. I told him he could roll to hide, but he can't just stealth (especially sense he literally just stole the bandit's crossbow) . We go back and forth when finally I was like sure you roll for it but for now on you have to hit a 20 everytime. He gets all pissy, and starts poo poo talking on my campaign, then rolls for stealth and fails. He then tries to say he gets to roll again, and that I'm just being a sore loser. So, I whipped out a loving displacer-beast that immediately attacks and nearly kills this rogue. He says I'm being an rear end in a top hat not letting everyone have fun, and that I'm not a good DM. I tell him to DM next time then. My husband said I made it awkward and that maybe I should just let him do as he pleases. What do you think Reddit? To clarify: I've talked about the rules on stealth too many time to count. I finally tried to compromise just so we could play. The Displacer beast didn't kill anyone. I let the group talk it down, and the beast task them to kill the black pudding.(As it would eat the the Cubs when it wasn't around.) Mildly banged up, the group did get home and rest. I honestly really appreciate the tips, and honesty. I'll talk to the rogue, about chilling out and that I promise not to just whip out a displayed beast if he promises to just stick to the rules and stop arguing with me about everything. Thank you so much! UPDATE: I've come to the conclusion that I'm just not a fan of D&D, and don't find it a lot of fun. It's too time consuming. I don't like arguing for two hours when I make stupid little cards for different monsters and make out all maps that take up alot of time. Which is probably why I lashed out. Thanks again for all of the help! I'll be sure to pass the wisdom nuggets to whoever DMs next.

AITA for saying, " Ok boomer" to my kid?quote:He thought he was a clever lil smart rear end when he said it to me the first time cause it did trigger me to get pissed off. I tried to explain to him that I'm only 37 and much too young to be a boomer. His grandpa is even too young to be a boomer. But that just made him feel even like more of a smart rear end. I guess the fact that I literally am not a boomer makes it even more funny to him. I don't really care about this particular story, but the cowardly mods over at the subreddit have gone too far: Mod posted:FYI, the phrase "OK, Boomer" is a slur that violates rule #1 of this sub and is not allowed in comments here. The fact that the OP used it in the story is in no way a blanket pass to use it in this discussion. Anyone in this discussion who uses this slur on anyone else or dismisses anyone else's argument with this term will be banned without warning.
