TheWeedNumber posted:I still don’t fully understand what happened here. There’s a lot going on, what went down besides a loving catastrophe lol Let's see if I understand it: -OP is with Ex -OP receives unsolicited sexts. Ex dumps her over this. -Ex shacks up with OP's friend E. E disapproved of the Ex-OP relationship the entire time. -E offers OP's sister a free wedding venue. E and Ex will attend. OP briefly fights with Sister over this, then reconciles and helps out with the wedding. -At the rehearsal dinner, Ex proposes to E. OP is upset but holds it together long enough to perform her role in the actual wedding. -Sister admits she knew E had planned the proposal and went along with it even though she (the sister) also knew it would hurt OP. OP fights with sister again. OP pulls out of family christmas gathering. This is the original question OP wanted a ruling on. -Sister begins spreading rumors that Ex dumped OP for cheating. This causes a lot of (to the OP) mysterious bad blood throughout the family. -OP gets back in touch with Ex. They both realize E was behind the sexts, the breakup, and the ensuing drama. -Ex breaks up with E. E fights with Sister. -Sister goes on a social media rampage and causes a bunch more drama. OP cuts various ties. -OP is still disinvited from family christmas.

This needs an update  AITA for not letting my dad get a paternity test? quote:My dad wants to get a paternity test cos hes recently gotten convinced I'm not his real daughter. My mum ran away to another country with some guy when I was 8 years old and lately my dad's gotten really sure she was cheating on him long before that and I'm actually someone else's baby. He keeps talking about how paternity fraud is a big issue and he needs a paternity test to be sure he's not getting suckered into raising another man's kid.

He used to spend a lot of time at my parents to get help with the kids. Rachel then moved out and kept her distance for few months.

Sloth Life posted:Cold mashed potatoes and raisins recipe here https://guides.brit.co/guides/make-cold-mashed-potato-and-raisins-salad e: fun fact about Morocco, by the way. When people talk about America’s longest ally, everybody says it’s France. This isn’t actually true. France supported America during the revolutionary war, and we wouldn’t be the same without them. Then Napoleon came to power and things weren’t good between the two countries for a while. But this doesn’t actually matter, because France isn’t America’s oldest ally. It’s Morocco. Morocco was the first ever country to recognize America as a sovereign nation. Pretty much, the emperor of Morocco at the time wanted to stick it to the king of England, and he did that by recognizing one of their colonies as a foreign country. America and Morocco signed a treaty of good will, saying that their ports will always be open to each other. This is America’s longest standing treaty. To this day, there has never been a single day of bad relations between the two countries. If you’re an American wishing to visit Morocco or a Moroccan wishing to visit America, you don’t even need a passport. Ziv Zulander fucked around with this message at 13:08 on Dec 6, 2021 |

Yeah, marrying your dead sibling's widow/widower seems kind of messed up, but eh...it's their lives and you're definitely an rear end in a top hat if you actively try to keep them apart because you're grossed out what they're doing. Incidentally it's also what the bible instructs you to do. There's some passage about how if your brother dies and you're single you should marry his widow. I actually have a great uncle who did exactly that, and it was always a minor scandal in my family that some of the old people would mutter about.

AITA for being embarrassed by how much my dads gf looks like me?quote:My dad (60m) has a new girlfriend (23f) and I (19f) was introduced to her a few weeks ago. His gf is young as hell and she looks exactly like me,similar dress sense,similar voice and mannerisms. We look disturbingly alike. Us looking alike and her age has really been messing with my mind. My dad says he doesn’t see it but he’s clearly lying if even the waitress thought we were twins!!!! It was so embarrassing when the waitress realized it was his girlfriend and not his daughter. I could literally see the entire waitstaff discussing it. I told my dad to never ask me to meet them in public when he’s with her if he wasn’t going to break up with her.

Sis's "it's for the kids I'm saving them from possible ~evil stepmother~" has a definite smell of a guilty conscience making excuses about it to me, but whether it's guilt about comforting the widower's dick before he was actually a widower or just guilt for getting with her sister's husband after she died there's no way of telling. But OP's "oh no those poor confused children" without, apparently, ever talking to the kids is pure  she is not handling her grief well in the slightest.

It's weird but OP's reaction is loving insane. Unless Auntie is actually responsible for killing the sister, there's nothing 'wrong' with marrying her dead sister's husband. It's weird. But it's probably not actually bad.

The situation hinges on how sister and BIL handle their relationship. Is Auntie the new mommy? That for sure would be creepy. But there's no mention that any weird behavior has been going on, only OP freaking the gently caress out over the idea of her dead sister being replaced wholesale.

AITA for always purposefully putting the grocery carts far from the cart area?quote:So hear me out. My brother used to work at a grocery store, and where he worked, cart duty was everyone's favorite job. It is the only task that's outside (California), it requires almost no customer interaction, there's no bending down, workers only take as many carts as they can carry, and since everyone is paid hourly, it's not a time suck for the workers who are on a set schedule anyways. It might also lead to more hiring.

Propaniac posted:AITA for always purposefully putting the grocery carts far from the cart area? Depends on what store you’re doing it at. Some stores track your movements the entire day and expect you to be doing something every second you’re on the clock, some stores it’s a lot easier to goof off. If it’s the former NTA, the latter YTA.

Cart return person isn't the rear end in a top hat as long as they aren't blocking parking spots with the carts. If you're putting them up in the little raised tree area or next to light posts, that's fine. Oh, also if it's not lovely weather.
