AITA for moving in with my half sister just because our dad will pay our rent? quote:My mom raised my brother and I on her own. She told me that my dad had been a drug addict and she wanted to get away from him. My bother's dad was always in his life and he got better things than I ever did. It always sucked, I know his dad had no obligation to help me but my mom would always buy me the cheapest stuff and buy him great things. She would say that it was his dad's money that she was spending on him. for context, once I got a pair of socks as gifts while he got the latest toy. My mom forced me to get a part time job in high school to help with the bills while letting my brother focus on his studies and interest. It really sucked as I was always tired from work and school, I didn't go to college because mom wanted me to help her out.

vonnegutt posted:Y'all don't have breakfast casserole where you're from? There's a lot of different kinds but most involve some kind of egg and potato product. There's also strata which is like savory French toast, so egg and bread. Hash brown casserole is pretty basic but you can get really involved adding sausage, peppers, cheese, etc. Yeah, I looked it up: hooray for those cute linguistic differences. For me 'casserole' would be a stew; meat and veg, cooked in the oven and served with huge amounts of mashed potato aaaaaaaand now I'm hungry. A little rich for breakfast though lol.

Tsaedje posted:Getting up at 5am on a weekend in order to have more time to do self imposed chores, and one of those is making breakfast for people who aren't up so it can be passive aggressively left cold for them because they're not up as early as she thinks they should be. She could easily just not make breakfast for them. This a little tough for me because if mom and dad wake up at 5 having them wait til 9 for breakfast is way too long and it's nice to have an occasional meal without kids but I do really like nice sit down family meals too. I think a good compromise would be mom and dad do their fancy early breakfast together on Saturdays and then a nice family brunch on Sundays.

Did that lady mention anywhere that weekend mornings are the only time they had for family meals together? Some people might have special memories of Saturday breakfast with mom and dad but not every family is the same. It sounds like the parents are giving them the option of doing their own thing, if they want to. The kids know if they want breakfast served hot they can get up early, and if they want to sleep in they can have leftovers. They're old enough to set the alarms on their cell phones and to learn that life is full of little compromises like this.

We provided special bags labled as laundry and inside was a form to fill out to confirm what they were leaving for us and what they wanted done to it. Sometimes people called ahead or dropped it off at the desk, but most of my regulars just popped it outside before going to bed and I picked it up at 3am when doing my rounds. I've only ever worked extended stay hotels though, so I'm not sure how other kinds go about it

I also made a spaghetti sauce: ground beef + jarred marinara. I'm sensing a theme here.

AITA for making a scene in public?quote:My boyfriend & I were vacuuming the car at the gas station. He asked to see his phone, and when I handed it to him a few seconds later HE PUTS THE VACUUM LITERALLY ON MY FACE. Literally right next to my lips. Not even a full inch away from my lips. I freak out and try and smack his phone out of his hand and scream what the gently caress. quote:Yeah he always says something completely awful is a joke but I’m never laughing

AITA for drinking to much juice? quote:I know this sounds petty but she is really upset. Would you be upset if your significant other drank a majority of the juice if you only had one cup? I bought Apple juice when I went grocery shopping last week. We just opened it yesterday and my girlfriend (24f) had only had one cup of it so far while I have had multiple. (25f) She decided yesterday to give up soda so in her defense her options are now limited she says. In the fridge we only had the apple juice, soda options and Arizona juice and bottled water. She said the Arizona juice she couldn’t drink no more because she saw stuff floating in it which is understandable. I will be going to the store tomorrow to get more juice and other things she will be able to drink. We was supposed to go today but she didn’t feel well so she said let’s just do it the next day. I understand I’m wrong but is this as big of a deal as she thinks it is or AITA? Invisible Clergy fucked around with this message at 01:53 on Jan 20, 2022 |

AITA for pressuring my bf about a situation in my bathroom?quote:My bf and I are quarantining in my apartment at the moment. The other day, I went into the bathroom and found a couple of half-wet, brownish stained clumps of toilet paper (2-3 sheets) stuck to the tiles on the wall opposite the toilet. I was confused about what they were but didn't mention it the first time I saw them, thinking he'd get rid of them next time he went to the toilet. They were still there a few hours later, so at some point I asked what it was and if he could clean it up. He said he didn't know but quickly went and threw them into the toilet. I was confused but didn't mention it again. A few days later, another clump appeared on the wall. The stains could've been poo poo, or maybe blood, or (unlikely as probably would have looked different) soil from plants, so I wanted to know what it was so I could determine if I'd be ok to clean it up. We have a semi-long distance relationship and regularly spend several days up to a couple weeks together at either of our places and I've never seen this before at his or my place.

PancakeTransmission posted:We all had to cook once a week as teens. It's annoying but so is being an adult and cooking (yeah I cook now but still don't particularly enjoy it). It's no surprise how many stories come out of failchildren in their 20s+ that can't do simple things, if their parents never asked them to learn how to do basic chores before leaving home. I wish I had had more life lessons as a teen. The ones I got were "once you learn to iron your dad's clothes perfectly, you will be taught to drive" and how to pack my dad's lunch. I mean, I knew basic chores like vacuuming and dusting, and picked up laundry, but overall the lessons were how to do all the bitch work that my dad didn't feel a real man had to do. That included all of his laundry. AITA for throwing my fiance's dirty laundry down the stairs quote:I (26F) have been living with my boyfriend (29M) for about 4 years now. He has always left his dirty laundry on the bedroom floor and I have always been the only one to do the laundry. I have asked him countless times to put his laundry in the hamper. We have a laundry chute in the hall, but I even bought a hamper for our bedroom so he could just toss it in there, yet he doesn't. I got very frustrated and threw his dirty laundry downstairs (laundry room is down there) and told him he could bring it to the laundry room himself if he wants it cleaned.
