Hot Stunt posted:Me (M26) and my lady (F24) just tried to have penetrative sex for the first time and it ended horribly This one is just a sad mess. I'm wondering if this is a long-distance relationship, because it really has that "people who have 'dated' for years online but have met like five times in person" energy. Incredibly poor communication, obvious huge mental investment in all their time together being "perfect," uncertainty about whether they even like each other that much...

They might also just be some combination of American, religious, have had abstinence-only education in school, or one or both of them might be a little on the heavier side, which can sometimes slightly complicate the angle of entry for penetrative vaginal sex, especially for a couple of virgins. Mx. posted:my employee refuses to lie to customers — but that’s our policy Fire her. If OP lives in an an at-will state, don't specify a reason. If in a contract state, take a page out of her book tell the truth: she isn't doing her job and is in fact creating unnecessary extra work for other employees. Also, if he don't want to honor cancellations because he's a cheap fuckwit, he's allowed to do that, but he'd save himself a lot of headaches and even be able to retain this terrible employee (who of course is conveniently fine with lying if she does it using OP as a proxy) if he's so dead-set on it for whatever stupid reason by just saying on the website "no cancellations, refunds only under xyz circumstances." That's perfectly normal and lots of stores do it. lol at the idea of an online retailer with ~15 employees being worried about going viral for not canceling an order.

I assume the borderlands story is fake because dude sounds like one of those fake gamerboys who doesn't know how to hang with real gamers and just wants to roleplay and try and get girls to notice him by playing their hobby.

Mx. posted:my employee refuses to lie to customers — but that’s our policy How does someone type that out and not have a "are we the baddies" moment? Anyway, a nice palette cleanser from Ask A Manager. The hard-driving nuns and priests quote:“I worked for a catholic school some years ago where the teaching and support staff consisted of priests, nuns and laypeople. We decided to do a white elephant exchange at the staff Christmas party. Since most of the group had taken a literal vow of poverty, the gifts had to be below $5 and re-gifting was strongly encouraged, just bring the item to the party fully wrapped. We drew numbers and picked gifts but you could ‘steal’ a gift if you had a higher number. There was one gift that was relatively big and the wrapping was very, very fancy so you know it was the most popular. We had nuns attempting to hide the gift with the skirts of their habits, priests making side deals on taking over the less popular mass times in exchange for the gift, it was hilarious to see how far they were willing to go to get this gift. It was all in good fun and no one devolved into tears over any of it. One of the older nuns ended up winning it and she did a victory lap around us holding it in the air. The gift ended up being a used pair of running shoes from one of the priests that was an avid runner. She did another victory lap wearing the shoes.”

self AITA posts are fine, if it relates to the topic at hand. Relatable things are totally fine? However, keep in mind that you will be judged, and as this is SA, uh, just take a thinker before posting. Just a wee ol moment of “your posting history and you: are goons loving weird sometimes?” Controversial opinion but I wouldn’t say that this is a mock thread, as there are some warm fuzzy stories posted here (which hell yeah keep ‘em comin). Also it’s tyool 2021, mock threads a very :2008: trend I think, two thousand late, dare I say. MAYBE more of a safari thread. Just keep the windows up and don’t look redditors in the eyes, they see it as a threat. But if you want to really post a self AITA and it’s off topic I’m not really stopping you? Alternatively I can post it for you? I mean if you’re telling tales outta class maybe take it to a different subforum, or if it’s some dumb “gotcha” god just idk, go smoke drugs, any drugs, smoke em. Listen to some music backwards. Lie in a pentagram surrounded by candles except it’s like one of each yankee candle in the room so you, idk, achieve milquetoast nirvana. Better usage of time than a hot gotcha (a hotcha, hot cha cha) Anyway settle down, Beavis’

Beachcomber posted:"If I tell you it won't count." My dad did this for way too loving long, both for his actual birthday and for anniversaries. After the umpteenth time of reducing my mother almost to tears because what she got wasn't what he wanted, she told him in no uncertain terms to un-gently caress himself and either start giving a list, or get used to not getting anything at all. Now, we have a drat list to use.

Beachcomber posted:"I have a hard enough time coming up with what I should get him." Man, just listen to what thy say they're getting him and build off of that. If the brother says "I'm getting him a book on Stonewall Jackson," buy him a replica map of the battle of Ticonderoga or some poo poo. Do people not coordinate with immediate family members on what they're getting each other so their dads don't end up with two copies of "Q is for Quarry" or whatever? That's perfectly normal for adults. I know I don't need anything that takes up more space in my house. But you talked about it with your in-laws first. I can understand a difference between your son asking you if you actually want gifts from him versus just not giving you anything when your other son does. Non-gift giving as an act of aggression. Dad still sounds like a dick though.

AITA for being offended that my boyfriend calculated how much he "subsidized" my life?quote:UPDATE: I am the rear end in a top hat. I texted him to apologize. I told him that I knew he was trying to help and that I appreciated all he'd done for me. He said he doesn't see a future with me and will be moving out once the lease ends in January. This AITA turned into a TIFU.

If people won't accept literally anything you give them because the thought counts, and consider it a plus if it's something they actually like, then they can get tae gently caress, as the Irish probably say. Like, random rear end poo poo for Christmas works for me and the folks I live with, because it's hard enough as it is sometimes.

TIFU: "Winning" the lottery, losing from friends and ending up worse off quote:Hey reddit, I didn't think I'll be seeing you here. I keep an eye on both and I think the difference is that the UK just generally has a lot more regulation and protections built into everyone's everyday interactions, so you just don't see a lot of the insane behaviour you see on the US sub that people are asking for advice on.
