AreWeDrunkYet posted:Isn't the minimum SSA benefit $950/month? It's a pittance, but that's at least rent, utilities, and food if you're not tied to an urban area for work. of course this was driven up by people who work in new york city (which is at least three hours away ftr. we are not anywhere near nyc) and telecommuted during the first two years of the pandemic so an urban area still influenced it but we are not the urban area and people from this rural area who have always lived in this rural area are now turbofucked, while living in the rural area, so lol

AITA for walking out on dinner with my parents and causing them to fall out?quote:I (M23) am bisexual. I came out to my parents when I was 16. I was worried about my dad, as he is quite religious, but he took it surprisingly well. Mum, however, said bisexuality wasn’t real, told me that it was either a phase, or a stepping stone towards me coming out as fully gay, which she also wasn’t happy about. We argued for a while, before I realised I was talking to a wall, and we dropped it.

They're idiots I feel guilty, because I ultimately caused this with my outburst and bad communication, Really incorrect and I can tell Joel blames himself. He shouldn't I don't know what to do. Appreciate your dad for standing up against your mother's bigotry, love your boyfriend So AITA for letting things reach this stage? no

I'm not really sure what OP did that caused the rift, or what he thinks he should--or even could--have done to prevent his parents fighting, other than break up with Joel and get back with Ava, which obviously no one wants besides the mom. Is that what the family calling him "selfish" thinks he should do?

There's no indication that Ava did anything wrong at any point. Also cheers for this good dad who chose his son over preaching and his wife's meddling.

Help! My Husband Picks Up Hitchhikers and Is Going to Get Us All Killed.quote:My husband is an incredible man, and has a huge heart. However, he has on several occasions picked up hitchhikers on the side of the road and given them rides to wherever they need to go. He thinks it it no big deal, and that it is, in fact, his duty to help people in need. This is my dilemma. I am much more wary of strangers and have heard countless horror stories over the years, which I feel back me up. He thinks I am being paranoid and cites that nothing bad has happened yet. I have forbidden him from doing this with our son in the car, but this has not stopped him from doing this with his young sister or his elderly grandmother with him. He even gave a ride to three men at once! Outnumbered! Maybe these travelers are harmless or in trouble, but what if they are armed or dangerous? I think he is too naïve, and he thinks I am cold-hearted. Who is right?

Invisible Clergy posted:Help! My Husband Picks Up Hitchhikers and Is Going to Get Us All Killed. LOL. I wouldn’t do this with my wife or kids in the car but pre-pandemic if I was on a long solo drive I pretty much always picked up hitchhikers that were going my direction during the daylight. Most people thumbing it are not out to rob or kill you.

Cool Dad posted:The only gay test that means anything is to see if you like having sex with men (if you're male) and not with women. If so, you're probably gay. I think one could probably enjoy having sex with a dude, as a dude, and still not be gay. Society makes a big deal about straight people being repulsed by same-sex relations, but I suspect that's more dogma than anything inherent to being straight. That being true, and the mechanics of sex being demonstrably pleasurable even if you're doing it with a rubber sleeve, a pillow or your hand it seems like a bad test. I would think being attracted to men as a man would be the best indicator that you are gay.

Bisexuality is a thing but yeah, this was more or less how people viewed things for most of recorded history, also known as the "a hole's a hole" theory of sexuality obviously exclusively homosexual people have always existed, but for most people homo sex was not really viewed as a competitor or replacement for hetero sex

Baronjutter posted:People who eat spicy food they hate because it makes them feel macho or whatever are similar to folks who will drink alcohol they don't actually like the taste of for similar reasons. Please, I'm begging you, if you think a drink is so gross and icky that you have to drink it as a "shot" and then quickly lick something to get the icky yucky taste out of your mouth just drink something you like instead? And leave the stuff you don't like to people who will actually enjoy the taste? My "I ate food that was way too spicy for me and continued doing so" story is very similar to the OP's but without any tantrums or dates. I, and my brother, are half Indian. And as such have a chip on our shoulders about how we can handle spicy foods better than "white" people. A mate of mine loves his spicy foods, and found an Indian restaurant near him and eventually had the chef making him stupidly hot extra extra extra spicy curries that normal people couldn't order off the menu. Well he tells me about this, and braggadociacal arsehole that I am, I say "Pfft, I am half Indian. That will be a piece of piss for me." So he invites me and my brother out for a curry at this place. Well it was, (and I choose my words very carefully here), motherfucking spicy. Properly hot. But my brother and I looked at each other, and just kept eating it, whilst tears were forming in our eyes, and my mate laughed at us. I was not going to be beaten by a bloody curry. Proving that "I'm X ethnicity, I can handle spicy food", means nothing when there is a chef prepared to gently caress with you for laughs. The difference between that and the OP's story is, this is a funny story that my brother and I tell amongst ourselves. We admitted it was too hot for us, and there was no shame in it. As opposed to chucking a tantrum over an imagined slight to our fragile egos. Nor did we blame my friend for our discomfort. We said we could handle spicy foods, so all the pain was our own drat fault. The guy OP went on a date with is a sooky baby. And not for not being able to handle spicy food. For getting his ego hurt and getting pissy about it.

AITA for leaving my date stranded at the restaurantquote:My (28F) friend set me up with her brother (29M) saying that we had a lot in common. An hour before we were to meet at the restaurant he texted me saying his car wouldn’t start, would I feel comfortable picking him up? I said sure, I picked him up and we get to the restaurant. When we sit he tried to order for me (a hard no), he was rude to our waitress and he had the attitude that he was better than everyone else there. All he talked about was how much money he made and how important his job was. Overall, it was just a poo poo date. Added para breaks. What I don't understand is, if this dude is making bank, why couldn't he just get an Uber if they're a thing where they were?

Possibly, but to which I counter, so what? Let dude identify how he pleases, there’s no such thing as stealing straight valor. In the inverse scenario where a guy exclusively pursues women but identifies as gay I’d be a little wary, but I wouldn’t pick a fight over that either, unless he was using it as cover for some other, creepier behavior, in which case the creepiness would be the actual problem.

Sir Sidney Poitier posted:One thing I still don't get is when it is ever the done thing to order for someone else? Unless they've specifically asked it seems like the equivalent of telling someone 'sit there and shut up'. There are certain high-end restaurants that have both menus with prices and menus without, and if a man and a woman visit one together, only the man gets the prices menu. It is very much a thing among sexists and business with a sexist clientele.

Invisible Clergy posted:AITA for locking my fridge because my roommate kept putting dead mice in there? AmiYumi posted:Petulantly starving animals and being a narc, yeah buddy you are indeed the rear end in a top hat Counterpoint: it is rear end in a top hat behaviour to put dead feeder mice in the same fridge as food meant for human consumption without discussing this with everyone else who is using the fridge. It is also rear end in a top hat behaviour to respond to a polite "Hey, please don't put the mice in the fridge for human food, use the cooler you got specifically for that purpose" with "if you think about it, beef and chicken are Dead Animals too, so it's awfully hypocritical of you to not be okay with frozen mice". And it is absolutely rear end in a top hat behaviour to throw a bag of frozen mice at your roommate because you're upset that you've been thwarted from putting frozen mice in the fridge. OP is, perhaps, squeamish. But it's not unreasonable to go "Yeah, no dead mice in the same fridge as the food I eat" and the animals aren't being deprived of food because of this; the roommate has a cooler, and had a fridge of their own that just needs repairs. Plus, it's not necessarily narcing; it isn't unreasonable to have assumed that the landlord would know about the pets and the roommate would have followed the proper procedure for keeping the pets in the apartment. And OP wasn't even going "hey, I want the pets gone", they just want to not share living space with someone who throws things at them.

The roommate shouldn’t have all those pets if he can’t afford a $300 freezer ( let’s be honest he could get a cheaper one used) to store the food in. I hope his reptiles feed on his flesh.
