I could see an argument for them being an rear end in a top hat if the house was bought for them and they resold it after 6-12 months. 5 years is long enough and this dude did nothing wrong.

I'll agree, Indiana and Iowa are both far worse than Ohio. Ohio has Cleveland which isn't the greatest city but has some value, like a slightly grimier Milwaukee. Indiana is just 140 miles of cow poo poo, corn, and lunatic Christian supremacists.

Besides the aformentioned points of them living there for 5 years, if there was talk that this was meant to a home for generations to come, then maybe the dad would have a point. But as far as I can tell, there wasn't. You can't give gifts with strings attached, let alone retroactively attach strings. They wouldn't be gifts then. I don't have any sympathy to the argument that they shouldn't have "unilaterally" sold the house without the dad's input. It's not his house; it belonged to OP and his wife. Anyways, content. AITA for quitting my job because of what my boss said? quote:I 21F just quit my job of two years because of a situation with my boss, I want to add that my day off has always been Wednesday. well I got a call at 9:00am to see if I could cover his sister in laws shift because she wasn’t feeling good, Normally I would go into work on my day off to cover anyone who couldn’t make it but this was 30mins before the store would open and we have to be there at 9am to get the store ready. Also I didn’t have time to take my son (3yo) to daycare, I said no because I have to go see my mom in the hospital (she’s been having heart problems, already has diabetes and passed out and has been in the the hospital a few days.) well when I said no he was silent and then said “well to be honest with you, that’s not my problem I don’t want the next time you can’t work to be this excuse again. I tried reminding him it was my day off but he had hung up. I just went about my day visited my mom, around 10am I saw his sister in law posted a picture of her with her sister,my boss and their kids with the caption “breakfast with the family” I sent him a message saying that I know my mom being sick isn’t his problem but trying to get me to cover his sister in laws shift, just so they could go out for breakfast wasn’t the way to go about getting me to come into work on my day off. He tried lying and saying they didn’t go out and I just sent him the picture and told him I wouldn’t be coming back to work anymore. Now I’m getting messages from my old coworker’s, his wife and sister in law telling me that I could’ve just went to see my mom another day and I made it into a big deal for no reason so AITA?

I'll rag on Cincy being bad, but I do like the zoo (I do like the Columbus one better) and the museums in the Hall of Justice are pretty OK. Also, I went to the art museum for the first time and it was surprisingly good, even before I came across a portrait of a woman in the 18th century who later married and became Mrs. Thicknesse. Air Force museum is pretty dope if you like planes and don't mind the militarism. Maybe the fact that it has some good things going for it but still wallows in chub slop is the problem. Like, it'd never be the BEST state, but it could be solidly middle-ranked, but it's consciously choosing to race to the bottom with Idaho or Alabama or Kansas.

Some years ago, my coworker needed a day off because her grandfather was dying. She went to the boss to ask for a few days off. I will never forget his reply. "That isn't important. People die every day. What I really need is you to be working in the gift shop this weekend." AITA? For wanting to know my bfs secret? quote:So basically I (26f) was having lunch with my bf(36m) and he randomly asked if I have a d** th bed secret. ( a secret you would only say on your d**th bed). I said no and he said he did. I asked what it was and he said he won’t tell me but maybe before he dies. I got a bit weirded out and he explained it’s not a bad thing and it’s like the time we went ring shopping but didn’t get one. I said is it to do with marriage or rings and he said no it’s an example. Anyway I let it go. A few days later he’s nervous about a phone call from his boss he thinks it will be bad and I think it will be good. He says if it’s a good call he will tell me his death bed secret if it’s bad he won’t. I was annoyed by that and said he shouldn’t be keeping stuff from me and it’s cruel to keep teasing me with something like that. I got annoyed and went to another room and won’t talk to him. He said I’m the a****le because I should respect his privacy and shouldn’t be mad and should be greatful he even considered telling me. But I’m mad because he’s keeping stuff from me and teasing it. AITA?? Stupid games, stupid prizes.

AITA for getting my boyfriend arrestedquote:I’ll just get straight to it. I’m a college student and this is my last semester until medical school. I’ve never been able to get a loan I’ve worked 5 1/2 years to get this degree because I have to pay out of pocket so it takes way longer. I’ve worked two sometimes three jobs at a time and barely had a social life. For this upcoming semester I reached my goal for tuition so I quit one of my jobs so I could relax a bit. I was a server/bartender at two bars and an office job so I always have cash hidden in my apartment in my closet in box and before the semester starts a week or two before I deposit it so I can pay my tuition. My boyfriend sometimes stays over while I’m there or when I’m not. Since I’ve been saving for this semester he’s the only one who’s been over I’ve never told him about the box but he knows I have to pay for school. put a couple paragraph breaks in there. anyway i can't believe that OP is so upset about this one little thing

Foo Diddley posted:AITA for getting my boyfriend arrested Again, this just annoys the gently caress out of me, but how does everyone in his family have her phone number and why isn't her response to everyone, "where's my loving money??" You'd think with all those folks calling her they could pool some poo poo together and pay her back. What the gently caress did he even spend the money on, drugs? Gambling? I kinda doubt he was paying down his credit card.

Yeah when I was working a service job I deposited my tips like every couple weeks... also, don't banks get weird about cash deposits that large? I mean, boyfriend 1000% still the rear end in a top hat, though. I hope she finds some way to get the full sum back. Maybe his lovely family can chip in.

Any transactions over $10,000 have to be reported to the feds. Which means if he deposited that money in his account or spent it all in one place, it'd be relatively easy for prosecutors to track.

AITA? My Best Friend Got 3 Readings On Me Behind My Back.quote:Okay so I'm doing an extremely long story short. My best friend and I recently fell out due to her telling me to STFU. I don't really know when she started saying that to me but I've NEVER liked it. After the falling out words were passed and I told her for the first time ever telling me to STFU upset me. We both wound up apologizing to each other. As days go on I've noticed she's been distant. I texted her and asked if we could talk because I got off work early she said yes we can. Okay great. I tell her I missed her and just wanted to hear her voice. She says Can I ask you a question? Do you have a problem with me? I told her the only problem I had with her is the fact that she tells me to STFU. She proceeds to tell me it's a joke and how I say it to her too (which is untrue) and lots of other mean things as well. I asked her to give me an example. She couldn't.I asked her if she's been standoffish towards me and she says yeah I have. She then says I got 3 readings on you. She tell me that "they" (people who did the readings) said that I have a problem with her, I'm holding a grudge and that I'm mad because she walked away from me. I would up telling her if she wants to believe her readings over me then fine. She says okay and then hangs up the phone. We've been BFF since the age 14! I'm 30F and she's 31F. I texted her that she was dead rear end wrong! How she's upset with me for something COMPLETELY different that what I thought! I tried to tell her instead of going behind my back and getting readings done on me, she could have easily talked to me and we could have hashed things out. I told her because she didn't care how I felt, today would be the day those readings come true. She didn't care. I told her she broke my heart and she never responded to that. I deleted her number and cried myself to sleep that night. The next day she says she confused. At this point I'm angry. I told her that her readings did come true. The only thing I keep thinking about and not in this order but she texted me, "I have a right to know who's in my circle. You just want to argue but positive vibes only." I was in disbelief. She tells me I'm playing the victim and she only asked me a question. How she did talk to me before the reading (she did not). How if I'm mad then I need to delete her number and how I'm twisting her words. She says she "told me" she was going to get a reading on everyone but name...but the difference is she only told me about everyone else...and about the 3 she got on me.
