My grandma's maiden name was Røgild (smoke-fire) and no one told her it would be legally changed to her husband's name by default. She's still kind of miffed about that, which I totally get.

RenegadeStyle1 posted:Except that when she said she wouldn't go from now on he all of the sudden got mad about her not going. That's pretty obvious. If he truly didn't wanna go only because he thought it was stupid then the natural reaction to her not wanting to go would be relief. His mom told him she's never going to any award ceremony he has ever again because he was a grouch one time as a teenager. Upon hearing that her son isn't going, she decides for no reason whatsoever to mention this to him. Any response from "oh okay" to literally nothing would have been better. It's pages ago now but I feel like for whatever reason you aren't understanding why the mom was an rear end in a top hat in this situation and I'm not sure if I'm not explaining it well or...

The irrelevant details are the entire point: they know they're an rear end in a top hat and have invented a reality in which this particular situation makes it somehow an exception. Therefore you must have all the details. At least that's a pattern I've noticed in similar posts.

AITA for asking a woman if she's had a hysterectomy?quote:I (M 32) was out with some friends (all vaxxed and boostered) for a brunch recently. I'm the only guy in the group with 4 women, but one of my friends, let's call her Jess, brought a work friend, Bella. Now, I've met Bella before and have to say that I don't really like her. I don't /dislike/ her, but I don't seek out her company or enjoy my time with her because she's just not a nice person. She's very vocal about her beliefs, one of which being "men are trash." I get the sentiment, it's meant to target the patriarchy and toxic masculinity, but it's still rough to know that, to her, I'm trash no matter what I do due to my gender.

It's a teaching opportunity. Tell her the meat is cooked to this doneness for a reason and try to sell the story, say you will be really happy if she's willing to try a piece, but that of course you will take the dish back and do it well done if she does not like it. Have the piece be a relatively thin one, and if the pastry is so dark you can't just finish it in the oven then just hit the meat with a torch.

They made the point that they wanted to sit down and eat once it's cooked, not dick about in the kitchen because someone doesn't like pink meat, which is pretty reasonable, especially because they're primarily cooking for the friend paying and everyone else is along for the ride.

Making the Beef Wellington OP change their entire cooking plan to accommodate a late-add who eats meat wrong (and may not even know this argument is happening on their behalf) for a meal you're not paying for is a dick move, imo. OP may still suck but they ain't the rear end in a top hat in the situation.

Motronic posted:This is also a possibility, but may not be well done enough for someone who really really is averse to any pink. I think they just don't know how to enjoy beef, but whatever: it's easy enough to accommodate if you give half a poo poo to do so. I can't speak for Ava, but I can't digest red meat well. Pink is fine, but if I say pink people go for red so I order medium-well at least. In a situation like this I'd go for the company, but some people get REALLY offended when you don't eat their food so I'd make some excuse about having too big a lunch or something and only let them know what it does to my bowels if they pressed the issue. That all this is going on about Ava without involving Ava is what makes this really weird.

Hughlander posted:AITA for asking a woman if she's had a hysterectomy? I feel like if you have bad opinions about stuff, your uterus status doesn't matter. I'm a pro-choice cis man, I was having a discussion with a former work colleague, a pro-life cis woman. She'd softened her stance somewhat, but still believed in parental consent laws. I was like "I dunno if some 16 year old girl gets raped by her father I don't think that same father should have a say about what happens" and she tries the "well, you'll never be the person who has to make that decision" line and I'm thinking "... yeah. exactly. That's one of the many reasons I wouldn't want to legislate what a woman can do with her body." Anyways lol at the OP owning the annoying finger snap lady.

Agreed on both counts. But really, if you want to host........learn to be a good one. This isn't a big ask. They're only making it out to be because of some stupid "you must eat it the way I serve it or it's an insult" things that is just really really tone deaf. Besides, beef wellington is tenderloin which has almost no taste to begin with. The entire point of wellington is to give it something other than texture. If there's anything you can "over" cook, it's tenderloin. You just need to do it just enough and not too much and it will still have a good texture (hint: put a pat of butter on the slice before you cook it more because it dries out easily). Maybe "hobby chef"/lovely host needs to up their game.

Cooking something complicated for the first time for a group of people is super stressful. If they want to be a part of that experiment and eat whatever comes out of your first stab, that’s great and they’re good friends. But if anyone wants to do a special order, I would absolutely tell them to gently caress off. But it’s weird that no one has talked to this person and asked if they wanted a special order.

codswallop posted:I let my best friend move in with us because he was going through a bad time now he and my wife have gotten close and want us to start a poly "family" quote:Update- My "friend" moved out on Monday and I was not at the house when he moved out so I dont know what did he and my wife talk about. And my brother has formally asked us to vacate his house by the end of this month, and since I have not paid any rents for the time I have lived here, I dont have any squatting rights. So I told my wife that we will be homeless by the end of the month and she should make her own arrangements. She says that we should do marriage counselling and she values our marriage more than any poly relationship and she was never going to go ahead without my consent. Also that she has gone no contact with my "friend" and now we should focus on repairing our marriage, lol. Sorry, couldnt stop myself from lolling while writing this. I am staying in the guest room and enjoying some nice takeout food (not very healthy but very tasty nonetheless). She has been trying to be more attentive and loving towards me but I am just counting my days.
