I almost understand her wanting fake bridesmaids so it doesn't look out of place with her fiance having groomsmen. But then people are going to ask about the fake bridesmaids and that'll be even more awkward. I really need details about how OP's friends back stabbed her, or how her relationship with her sister fell apart. Were they legitimately terrible people to OP, or is OP the lowest common denominator in this rear end in a top hat equation? I thanked my mentor and told him I'd get out of his hair... Except he's bald. quote:Lol so as the title suggests, I have a mentor who happens to be bald. He's serious about his work but pretty easy-going otherwise. We spoke for about an hour and then I introduced someone to him. At the end of the meeting, I thanked him for his time and said, "I hope you have a nice Thanksgiving, I'll get out of your hair now." I'm mortified. He laughed and seemed genuine about it, but I'm still worried I offended him somehow. Any thoughts? lol

quote:TL;DR: He broke up with me but gave me the option of starting over with a new relationship as boyfriend and girlfriend. That would rectify my mistake and make him my first choice. I've had some time to think and I've decided that I'm going to agree. This is a really good example of something that i could see happening in a rom com/twee sitcom like parks and rec that is absolutely insane in real life

Uncle Enzo posted:Yeah generally the options are "the law steps in" or "somebody shoots somebody" I know at least one international border that's re-surveyed every decade because the official border line follows the middle of the deepest part of the river. It's absolutely a thing. e: Water Boundaries-- What Are Your Rights And Liabilities? Jenkins, Bowen and Walker, P.C. (Georgia) posted:A. WATER COURSE AS BOUNDARY This seems to line up with UK law, so I suspect it's something inherited from there - and thus presumably the same through large parts of the US? e2: Though that leaves the tampering. I assume the stream being the boundary means tampering with the lay of the stream is effectively tampering with a border, which is one of those few things everyone everywhere seem to agree is a crime.

Is anyone else like that? That's the whole thing. Seems that there's a hell of a lot to unpack here, from the song chorus to communicate his meaning, teenage drama nearing 30, and overall vagueness of the post

I love the tiny triangle of land that's near the top of the river but belongs to France because you cannot, under any circumstance, cede that land to Belgium because it's strategically vital reminds me of when a Belgian farmer moved a marker 2 meters and caused a minor incident by enlarging Belgian territory: https://www.bbc.com/news/world-europe-56978344

limp_cheese posted:HFCS has a terrible aftertaste and seems to leave a film or something in my mouth that makes me feel like I need to brush my teeth. American Coke is terrible but you better believe I get a Medican Coke when I go to a local mexican place. The cane sugar just doesn't have the aftertaste or mouth feel. A million pages back, but I've always hated Coke for the film it leaves in my mouth. Never had an explanation for it and I'm surprised more people don't notice/hate it, but I feel vindicated. Thank you.

As a side note, I always parse the chorus as "I wish I was Jessie's girl" which puts a fun modern spin on things.

My husband (31M) of 5 years said he would leave me if I (29F) don’t carry on his family naming tradition (that he previously said he did not want to participate in) for our baby. I don’t want him to do that but I also don’t want to name my potential son an awful name. What should I do?quote:I have always looked forward to naming a child or a pet one day and since my pets all came with names this will be my first time naming someone. I was so excited…until my husband insisted out of nowhere that we name our son his exact full name. First name, middle name one, middle name two, and of course the long hyphenated last name we now share plus “the fifth”. alright i editorialised a little

It does indeed work best when the border doesn't run through any built-up areas. The Norwegian-Russian and Swedish-Finnish borders have large sections that are set by rivers, and are readjusted every now and then to avoid that sort of situation. There's nothing more complicated than maybe a parking lot with a bench anywhere near those stretches, though.

Thundercloud posted:Raising one of your siblings children as your own used to be fairly normal in Anglo Saxon times, when birth control didn't exist and people were making GBS threads out kids left and right. Hence Sweostor Nifts being a special relationship and turning up a lot in things like Arthurian literature. My wife's from a family like this. She was the oldest of two girls and her parents got pregnant a third time and they got a boy which they wanted so the oldest girl (wife) went to live with her bio father's sister and husband who had no children of their own. This was in China during 1 child policy, they are Miao minority so allowed to have two children.

This is why I'm glad my family's naming tradition is just to put a y in there somewhere that fits. And by tradition I mean "Mervyn and Gladys decided it'd be cute a hundred years ago, and nobody's disagreed yet. No biggie." Sometimes it's first name, sometimes middle. Sometimes it's the more common spelling, sometimes less but still doesn't stand out. Just a bit of a family easter egg.

Of course the stupid OP, after making a post tearing her hair and rending her garments about how awful and disgusting the name is doesn't tell us what the stupid name is in the comments. The name's been in the family for 5 generations? And the husband's doing a 180 on this after years of being on OP's side? Maybe the family are Vanderbilts or something and if they don't name their son Cornelius Pnurtis Agammemnon Johnson-Vanderbilt V, he'll be disinherited but they only dropped this bomb on the husband after he told the Corny III that he isn't playing ball. That would be an unenviable situation but just name him that and call him something else, that's what all various scions of the Rockefeller family, who are compelled to name their first male heirs "John" do: commenter posted:This sounds like family pressure. Are his parents rich? Are they maybe holding some kind of inheritance hostage over the name. OP posted:Nobody is rich and my husband doesn’t have a relationship with his father anyway.
