Cool Dad posted:I haven't seen that happen, and I enjoy the occasional insane parent. Maybe people could make it clear when posts are from estranged parents at the top so people who aren't interested can skip them? That’s the whole reason the other thread was created in the first place. And may I suggest that if you enjoy those posts you go to the thread for them, rather than reading them here in the thread specifically for other things?

Mx. posted:AITA for giving my fiancé and ultimatum about inviting his sister at our wedding Here's where you make a deal with your in-laws that if she messes things up they have to buy you a new bag and pay for dry cleaning and the photographer to remove the stain from the photos. Edit: also, they have to hold her down so you can slap her.

AITA for telling my Granny to stop using slang?quote:My grandma (70f) has recently picked up on common acronyms and slang and now uses it 24/7. She'll be talking about anything and randomly say "LOL" or "L-M-A-O" or "and THATS my 13th reason" or "It's because I'm an alpha" she probably picked it up from watching tiktoks with my sister and she thinks it's the coolest thing ever.

I figured he was only there to try to pick up bi girls he finds attractive, since he doesn't appear to view women as people.

CannonFodder posted:"Oh no..." I still can't get over how helpless that guy is. Is there somewhere in the world where opening a tin or bag of cat biscuits is somehow much more difficult? All that's coming to mind is that maybe he and his wife have a really complicated IOT can opener or some such garbage. Even then though, if push comes to shove and he's well and truly worthless he can order some fish and chips or something to give to the cat.

It's okay my dude, I'm pretty sure at least one of my cats would eat pancake batter.

If the cat has some dietary issues like kidney or thyroid, there's specific kibble your vet sells. Otherwise... Street cats in Maspalomas gobbling treats

Comment under the can't feed cat guy's post:quote:OP clarified in response to one of my comments that the "family" is just the couple and their cat. And I can guarantee the cat would prefer doordash and video games over whatever histrionics and pancakes the OP had planned. OP has some serious stones assuming the cat was on his side. Histrionics and pancakes.

sugar mouse posted:Look, I'm just not good at posting, which is impressive after 15 years but I'm guessing the thread is in GBS? IF YOU ARE ON A PERSONAL COMPUTER Scroll to the top of the this thread. There you will see something that says "General Bullshit › r/relationships: Im not sure how exactly to feed the cat". Click on where it says General Bullshit. From there, you will be directed to a list of threads that are posted in this forum. The thread you are looking for is called "Rejected Parents: heteronormative gender police and chocolate robococks". You may scroll through the list looking for it. If you're tech savy, you may press control + f and start typing in the name of the thread. This will usually direct you to it. IF YOU DON'T FIND THE THREAD ON THE FRONT PAGE It may be on the second page. It's a popular thread and is usually near the top, but not always. If you can't find it, feel free to scroll to the bottom of the page. There you will find several icons with numbers on them on the right side. You will need to press the icon that looks like >. This will take you to the second page of threads in the forum. This step is often not used in finding the rejected parents thread. IF YOU ARE ON MOBILE Use your finger to scroll to the first post this current thread, opening the options at the top of your phone. One of the options will say Parent Forum. Tap on this. This will take you to the list of threads in GBS. From there you will need to scan for the thread that says "Rejected Parents: heteronormative gender police and chocolate robococks". There is no quick way to search. If you have swiped down more than a few times, then try swiping all the way to the top and trying again. It is more likely that you have missed it than it is buried deep in the forums. ONCE YOU HAVE FOUND THE THREAD click on it and start posting about your parents

Everyone in this story except for the cousin's daughter needs to be guillotined, including the OP. The OP isn't as lovely as the cousin, but still signs off on unchallenged, disparaging remarks about public colleges and a bunch of other classist bullshit. God, this one made me mad.

I don’t really read that from the OP they just acknowledge that she never got the privileges and hookups that come with an “elite” school and not having insane debt.
