AITA for lashing out and berating my boyfriend for taking my mails home and opening them?quote:I have a terrible habit of leaving my mail sitting in the mailbox over weekends, BUT I didn't think anyone in the neighborhood would touch it, cause it's been like this since I've moved here except for a month ago, I started noticing that some of my mails were going missing, it was so confusing because I already reported it but it was confirmed I recieved them in my mailbox which led me to believe someone's been taking it.  RUN

She only says they are open in the title and I want to say that's the only red flag. Paper mail is almost entirely useless now and if it's sealed envelopes I wouldn't worry about it at all.

AITA for telling my mom to go back to the family she replaced me withquote:My mom (42) and I (22 M) used to be really close. Like she's all I've ever had and she's the one who taught me to be a strong as I am today and her becoming a cop inspired my whole life. I love her so much and I admire how strong she and I wish things were like how they were. Her uncle (my great uncle) managed to bring her to Canada from Kosovo in 1999 if that helps give you guys an idea of the kind of things that she's been through. quote:The company's involved in war, that's about all I'm going to say on the topic.

Nah, and there's a very easy "loosen restrictions as a reward, as long as you keep up the good work" option that a reasonable parent would consider.

If the video game machine is a gift, then it shouldn't come with strings. It really doesn't depend on the son's age. He's producing the only thing parents like OP care about : high numbers, and gets nothing in return. AITA took most of my step sons clothes quote:I am looking for ADULTS/parents opinions.

Lol I'm reading this like 3 months behind, as one does, and there is a massive derail over "does destroying you own joint owned lovely consumer IOT goods safely, with no sentiment attached to them with a sledgehammer and with no anger or danger to your partner,(using what may not actually have been a sledgehammer), after you used said cameras that never should have been there in the first place to humiliate and violate your partner... count as domestic abuse? And then the non-sledgehammer people and the actual sledgehammer owner people facing off. Internet is loving weird. Let me put it this way... If you own a sledgehammer, you WILL find an excuse to use it. The worst part of owning a sledgehammer is that you can look around a room or really anything and be like "could I break that?" and the answer for everything and everyone you look at is always "yes... yes you could... just pick me up... just a little tap... yessssss." But then you are like "that would be really expensive to replace, or will get the cops called, so I can't do that." It's horribly frustrating. It wants to be swung. I love you Sledgey. We will find a time.

Mx. posted:AITA for calling out my hypocritical holier than thou uncle for having a mistress? This is awesome. I have a similar one. At the end of school I went on a trip with my girlfriend and a bunch of her female friends for a few months around the world. We ended up at plenty of topless beaches. Photos were taken. Facebook photos were uploaded, by someone. Nothing explicit - everything is from the back and there were a bunch of Austin-Powers style photos where the girls are covering their boobs with boob-like objects such as coconuts or doing Little Mermaid bras with shells. Risque, maybe? Juvenile humor, sure. This one girl, Eve, her family gets wind of it and poo poo goes ballistic. Her older brother (in his 30s or 40s, has a different mother) made it his loving mission to just slut-shame these girls by reposting these pictures every day on his own Facebook and using it as 'evidence' that his sister is a whore, and that parents shouldn't pay for her university, because she is just using her newfound freedom to be a complete whore by letting a man see her boobs on a beach. This went on for months. There were zero consequences really as most of her family was like "Why are you being so creepy?" and "This is normal in Europe". He was just blowing up his own family to keep reposting these rather PG rated photos everywhere and 'warn' her younger cousins about her. She went to Thanksgiving in the fall and her brother had PRINTED OUT these photos and handed them out to people at the gathering to 'prove' what a whore she was. Grandma apparently saw them and told about how she used to run around topless at the beach when she was young and said something to the likes of 'If you've got it, flaunt it". Brother was entirely alone in giving a poo poo yet continued to persist. Eve's other cousin 'Sherlock' had found her brother's profile on a dating site . Yes, imagine our surprise when the Holier Than Thou married brother was showing off his stupid sports car and looking for a sugar baby half his age. He did absolutely nothing to disguise his identity (his license plate was even visible in his car photo!) and his profile was straight out looking for casual sex and about how he only wanted casual sex because he was so devoted to the mother of his children. Cousin Sherlock screenshotted and printed out the photos and brought it to Xmas. They gave Brother one last chance to not be a complete moron but during Christmas dinner he asked Eve whether she was still part of a harem for 'that Catholic boy' (me) so Sherlock deployed the photos. I wish I was there to witness the meltdown. Brother's wife lost her poo poo, as did the rest of the family, and Brother got kicked out of Christmas and had to go spend it in a hotel. They divorced. The family still hangs out with Brother's Ex-Wife while he is now the family pariah. All over absolutely nothing. I am always thrilled to see Holier Than Thou born-again types just totally eat poo poo when they think themselves immune. Mr. Grapes! fucked around with this message at 03:06 on Mar 10, 2022 |

poisonpill posted:were the beach boobs nice Yes and no. See, I was quite young, and the boobies were maybe too nice? I'm trying to do normal beach thing like read my doorstopper Neal Stephenson book, or take a nap, but there are boobs around so being a teenage boy I absolutely must at least admire my situation, because one day I won't be here. So even if I feel like I'm tired and hungover and sunburnt and I'd probably rather just go back to the hostel early today, I must stay because there are boobs around and one day there won't be. A true trial of wills.

I was not Catholic except in the sense that my family was 'ethnically' Catholic, but I had not gone to church since I was a kid. This dude would really get on me about it and bring up Catholic Church sex scandals expecting me to defend the Church or be offended or something, when I would just agree that yeah organized religion in general is creepy and corrupt and I wanted no part of it.

AITA for going on an expensive vacation and not helping fund my sister's IVF?quote:My (30M) sister(34F) has been struggling to conceive with her husband for a few years now. They recently went to a Gyno and were told they likely would be unable to without IVF. Obviously she's upset about it. Idk their exact financial situation but she and her husband are both teachers at private schools. They said their insurance doesn't cover it at all and that they were told it would likely be about 25k all in with the medication and everything. There is no guarantee of success and it could be 25k and no positive result. They asked me and my parents if we could help pitch in and my parents objected due to it being against their religious beliefs. Maybe they'll see normal European beach boobs too!

I grew up with a friend who had the most waspy old money protestant parents imaginable. Just the worst sort of social conservative bigots. The only thing they hated more than the gays and the feminists and the immigrants were catholics. My god I got to hear some anti-catholic rants, about how they were just a cult that worshipped the pope and mary and can't call themselves Christian. They ended up converting to Catholicism because all the local protestant churches became gay friendly.

Brawnfire posted:Well poo poo, if he loathes autistic peeps so much why'd he get married and have a kid with one? She was only diagnosed somewhat recently, even if it was prior to their marriage. Their courtship probably predates this at least a little, so OP is stuck in the mindset of thinking of her various autistic rituals as mere annoying habits of an nt person he can successfully nag, bully, or ridicule her out of even though his wife has a doctor's note saying otherwise now. Autistic women are underdiagnosed bigtime. A lot of the reason is that there is a sex-segregated checklist for detecting autism in kids, so even if his wife would've been flagged if the school aid did both tests, if she didn't present in the way conceptualized as female, she wouldn't get support. Complicating this, the way women and girls are socialized to not be disruptive means a lot of afab autists learn to mask their behaviors much better than their amab peers, which is another contributing reason why they are typically diagnosed later in life if at all. Since the wife probably spent her formative years being told to "quit being weird" by parents and teachers and the like and learned complying is a good way to get people to stop yelling at you, she is probably pretty easy to bully and pick on, which made her an attractive prospect for someone like OP. Splitting up is definitely best for all parties involved, but the baby means that's unlikely at best.
