AITA for not accepting my new neighbour?quote:I (38F) am part of a group of friends in my neighbourhood. We take turns hosting dinner parties between our households (5 houses out of 15 in our neighbourhood). One of our group recently moved out because her husband was cheating with his secretary. In the last month he moved her in and is acting as if everything is normal. Onya, Petra!

AITA Crude Joke of Farting on Friend's Dogquote:I was at a close friend's house recently. They had just gotten a new puppy and I had just been introduced to it. As a joke, I farted on the puppy. It was definitely on the crude side but I thought it would be taken okay, especially since it was the dog of someone I'm so close with. My friend, and his family, both found it extremely disrespectful and openly expressed this to me. I was uncomfortable the rest of the night after how critical they had been. I do recognize the joke was unnecessary but I feel that it should have been clear from our relationship that I did not mean to be disrespectful. I felt that their response to the situation was harsher than warranted. AITA?

Not speaking to that poster's specific sensibilities which are their own thing, but Islam has very explicit hardship clauses that say you should not let your religious expression get in the way of basic survival. Like mostly stuff about eating on Ramadan if you're diabetic or pregnant or not observing the Salah if someone known to persecute Muslims is watching, but I'm pretty sure if working at a coffee shop that sells the occasional ham sandwich is the best job you can get, the Qu'ran wants you to grit your teeth and do it until you land something better.value-brand cereal posted:30m husband asked 26f me to have sex with his friend. He left me, is saying I cheated, and I'm pregnant. The obvious answer here is to say you can't even think of forgiving him until he clears the record and tells everyone what really happened. Then if he does, use it as ammunition in the divorce and block him everywhere.

found a good one from ask a manager: My boyfriend left me for an intern at work and her manager called my friend about it quote:My live-in boyfriend of several years recently told me he has been having an affair for months and ended our relationship to pursue a relationship with the affair partner. He and I are both in our early 30s and met at work, where we are both still employed. The affair partner is an intern in our office, over 10 years his junior. update quote:First of all, I’d like to thank you and the commentariat for the advice (and sympathy, and confirmation that my reaction wasn’t nuts). That being said, my update is a bit anticlimactic — by the time I got back from vacation, the offending manager had been moved to another location (a scheduled lateral transfer that I hadn’t been aware of).

wizardofloneliness posted:Using someone else's credit card without their permission is a pretty big boundary to cross imo. If they were married or in a long-term relationship with shared finances that would be one thing, but it sounds like they have not talked about it at all based on his reaction. Whether she forgot her wallet at home or she just didn't feel like waking him up or whatever, I think it shows pretty bad judgment to do that unless you've had previous conversations about it. I know I would be uncomfortable if a fairly new boyfriend thought it would be ok for him to take my card without my knowledge even if it was to buy something nice for me, just because it was more convenient for him. The guy should've just been direct with her about it instead of going "well, technically you're a thief", so I'd settle for an ESH. I'd definitely settle for an ESH, but as others have pointed out, I am tending to her now being more of an AH than he is.

PetraCore posted:I thought it was a caffeine thing with Mormons, my understanding is they're pretty strict on any sort of 'mind-altering substance' no matter how normalized/mild, which can cause problems when someone has a legitimate mental disorder that needs medicating. I don't know if there's any official doctrine over taking psychiatric medication in case of serious medical need, but my suspicion is that psychiatric problems are considered something that needs to be prayed away even if there'd be understanding over someone needing to take, say, insulin. Hopefully that can shift in the future with more recognition of mental illness as potentially a physical problem and not a 'spiritual' one. Mormons are allowed to drink soda which has caffeine. They used to not be allowed to but they believe the head of their church is a prophet in close contact with god and god told him soda was a-OK sometime in the 80s.

Most religions do have those loopholes, and I'm sorry, but if I worked in a food place, and a coworker said they couldn't handle a food item (and they have been provided with gloves too), I wouldn't be picking up the slack for them, and I doubt management would be super understanding. Unless of course I had my own loophole: it's against my religion for me to clean bathrooms, so coworker has to do it instead of me, and I will handle all the pork. Reminds me of a lovely call center job I had, where a bunch of new hires all insisted they needed Friday nights and Saturday mornings off for personal reasons, which switched to religious reasons when told No.

that really seems like something you should ask your spiritual advisor about, anyway, not strangers on the Internet who likely don't share your faith. your imam can explain to you that Allah isn't going to drat you because you touched pork, and you'll be more likely to take it to heart because it's coming from someone you trust. AITA for reacting with disgust to my boyfriend sharing an experience he had as a paramedic? quote:Hi, I am 23f dating a 33m. I’m feeling super conflicted right now after my boyfriend just shared a story with me about an experience he had while working as a paramedic. Basically, he told me this with the preface that it was a funny but extremely messed up story. He has a twisted sense of humor and his partner at work does, too… but I felt this was too far.

AITA for taking leftovers home? I(32F) and my husband(35M) have been married for 3 years. I gained a ton of weight through my life and got weight loss surgery in 2019. The surgery shrank my stomach and I can't eat a ton. I do enjoy the meals by ordering smaller portions. My husband hates it when I order food and take it home. He thinks it's a waste of food and money. We recently went out to dinner with friends and I ordered a chicken dish. I felt full and asked if I could get a box. The waitress brings me over a box and I see my husband roll his eyes. He looks at the rest of the food and says there are a ton of people that would appreciate receiving a meal. I started to feel embarrassed and apologized to my friends. On our way home, husband and I got into a huge argument about the evening. He tells me that going out to eat isn't enjoyable since I got the surgery. AITA?[/quote]

In my experience, there are some people who's sum total of internet usage, social life, educational life, and even spiritual life is replaced with Reddit. They open up Reddit, read a whole bunch of reddit, comment on Reddit, and then go to sleep. If it's not on Reddit, it doesn't exist. It's surreal, but it's also why there's reddits for the dumbest, weirdest things. Soylent Pudding posted:AITA for taking leftovers home?

ponzicar posted:Are paramedics even allowed to pronounce the time of death? I've never been a paramedic and only have pronounced death in a hospital, and only in one state, so bear everything with a grain of salt. Time of death is a legal thing, not an actual thing. If a patient died in my ward and I couldn't pronounce death for an hour because I was elsewhere working, I was supposed to document the time that I pronounced death, not the time they had clinically died. That is not the same as when someone like a coroner estimates someone's time of death. So, maybe. I know in some states medics can in cases of gross non survivability (ie decapitation) or with lividity already setting in, and they can sometimes use their medical command doc to do it too.

RenegadeStyle1 posted:No but if cops were there then I'd assume a coroner was already there too. lol, I see you don't have any experience in this. The coroner is the person you sit around on the scene for two hours after everything is long over waiting for. And play hot potato on who has to sit there and wait. "Sorry, we're the only ALS rig on duty, we have to leave." "We've got the only ladder truck in service, we can't stay either" "I'm the only cop on duty for my zone, gotta go!" Also, you never want to pronounce unless you have absolutely no other choice and it's just that obvious. It's a lot of paperwork.

Neito posted:What the gently caress? I can't even parse Husband's position here; it's not like she's throwing it away or whatever, the exact opposite in fact! And if she's anything like my girlfriend (who's also had Gastric Bypass), its that even the smallest portion they provide is larger than what she can eat in one sitting. Does he think that the restaurant donates leftover food to people or something? Was he saying that she could have left it for the friends to share eating? Doesn't really make sense, tho.

Barudak posted:Not broken at all, what in the gently caress. Husbands only mistake was going back in and not leaving. If they can’t go places where the wife knows people then that presumably cuts out a decent amount of local restaurants, the wife chose a place where she didn’t expect to know anyone. From the husbands story it was 5 minutes of conversation he had to endure and not like they pulled up a table and sat down with them or she called someone on the phone or something.

More likely that the baker honestly couldn't believe that someone strongly dislikes chocolate and would not eat even a little under any circumstances. Compounded by being mad over her time and effort being rejected
