WIBTA for refusing to let my sister ride with my brother and I on the way to vacation. My parents just decided earlier this week on where we are going for vacation. Turns out were going to the mountains. While we have been here before, everyone is still really excited. The entire trip has been planned out so far. And we are all ready to go on vacation.Not only that but our grandparents are coming with us. So everyone is really excited for this trip. Though due to their age my grandparents don't want to dive 6+ hours to a mountain cabin, so their riding with us. With the addition of them, the total going in 7 people and its hard to find a vehicle that would fit us comfortably . So the solution is for someone to take another car, and I volunteered to take my truck along with my brother. While this fixed the crowding problem, it caused another to pop up. My sister wants to ride with my brother and I. We have the room for her, and it would allow for the other car to have more room. But I don't want her to ride, for a number of reason. Mainly she is the worlds worst backseat driver. No matter how well i drive somethings always wrong. I'm too close to one side, or I'm not checking blind-spots enough. Rather than calmly point out my mistake she screams at me that I cant drive and often demands i pull over and switch with her. Then there are a number of smaller reasons. She has to have complete control of music and ac, she has to be in the passenger seat, and she is the only one who can choose rest-stops, restaurants, and gas station.Then the worst is she takes her drat shoes and sock off, then puts here nasty rear end feet on the dash. When these things combine its honestly impossible to focus on the road as she gets load and mean when we don't listen to her. The thing is she sees this as a sibling road-trip and away out of riding with all of the "old people". She has vowed to be calm and has agreed to stop backseat driving. But i don't trust her, and if I'm driving up a mountain in the dark I want more than a promise that nothing will happen. If i tell her no she will freakout before we leave. But i cant deal with her and navigate the interstate/mountain roads. So its essentially choosing between the lesser of two evils. A freak out at home before we leave or on the middle of the interstate . Id rather not have conflict at all but it unavoidable at this point, and i don't want to ruin vacation over the car arrangement.

Evil Willow posted:AITA for going on a tea strike? It's either passive aggressive petty revenge for some, possibly imagined, sleight on his part, or it's classic controlling behaviour because she doesn't think tea should have sugar. In Britain you are taught how to make tea as a child as a basic life skill. Especially how to make a round of teas for guests/co-workers and including how to make note of their preference. Unless she has some kind of debilitating short term memory deficiency this is deliberate. If you pull this poo poo with a co-worker in an office with tea-rounds you'd probably get a word in your ear from the boss or even HR. Currently making my wife a cup of tea, exactly how she likes it, same as every tea I've made her in 9 years.

Nearly all the tea etiquette can translate seamlessly to coffee for Americans, and indeed it's really not that hard. It's prepackaged ingredients, boiling water, and often signature or marked vessels so you know whose is whose. loving it up repeatedly is a sign of Problems one way or another.

The most tea-disciplined theatre I toured to in the UK warned touring companies to bring their own mugs from home/digs, because everyone had their own mug in the green room, no spares, wash your own, don't touch other people's. And the whole building stopped for tea at the same time, morning and afternoon, so everyone saw each other regardless of what their job was. It was nice.

I worked for a construction company in the UK and we’d randomly trade off who made tea/coffee for everyone during lunch and tea time. People often went with the same thing every time but we did have options so we’d still ask in case anyone wanted something different that day. If I can keep the drink orders of 9+ people straight whether they asked for something specific or just “the usual” then I think everyone should be able to manage the single unwavering preference of their life partner, barring some kind of severe memory disorder

hallo spacedog posted:I think you only get to do that for like 3 years or something though There's no hard and fast rule per se, the 'three years' is a guideline given out by (responsible) tax preparers. Ultimately though a lot of people just do it until they get caught, and presumably a lot of people don't get caught. E.G. Mitt Romney was deducting his wife's horse expenses as 'medical expenses' and I don't think he ever got audited for that.

AITA for begging my girlfriend to uphold a sexist tradition just so she can make a good first impression?quote:I have a big family that’s incredibly close. We have big family dinners every few months where we all meet at my great grand fathers estate and eat together. Typically how this works is that the women go cook for the time they’re there and the men don’t. Which I am fully aware it’s sexist as hell. That being said I am one of the youngest people in family and my protests mean literally nothing.

OP in the comments posted:No to clarify her career brings in a net loss of around $38,000 a year. But she grew up wealthy and it is hard for her to come to terms with the fact that cutting back needs to start now, not just have her agree that it is a good concept. loving lol.

Also note that it's not $550 for a party photographer for an 8-year-old, it's an EXTRA $550 for a SECOND party photographer plus however much was lost on the deposit for the first photographer that was not up to the wife's standards

AITA for saving my girlfriend's pizza crustquote:I (24M) and my gf (24F) have been together for over 6 years. We do not live together so a lot of times when we do get to see each other we either go out/order food. I also grew up in a home where we try our best to not waste food. For example, we wrap up any leftovers from every meal no matter how small. One pancake after breakfast? Into the fridge. Half-eaten burger? Into the fridge. Within the next couple days, the leftovers will be eaten by someone. And if no one eats it, then we will usually put it in the freezer to be eaten at a later date. I don't even care about the overall judgment on this one, I'm too shaken by the idea of someone just pushing through the actual pizza part of the pizza to get to their special delicacy, the crust

I want to see one of those inexplicable YouTube videos: Do you love pizza crust? Do you like it so much you save it for last but then can't finish it after eating the pizza middle? But you can't bare to toss your favourite part of the pizza so you refrigerate and then freeze it? And even though it's your favourite you don't want to eat just crust? In this video we'll show you how to prepare just the middle and bake old crusts unto it. Best part is if you eat the middle first to save the crusts, and then don't have room for them, they've been rebaked and are ready to go back in the fridge or freezer! Where you're sure it's a parody until you see like 45 comments with 'How cool and frugal. I have this exact problem! Definitely trying this hack ext time!'.

LOL anime. AITA husband didn't come back to let me in being locked out 2 hours. quote:Husband went to an anime convention at 10am, I was home. At 13:30 I went out to buy groceries and accidentally locked myself out. Let him know and it's blazing hot out here we're in the middle of a heatwave. Groceries still outside. He stayed until the very end of the convention and now at 15:40 he's still not back. Dog hasn't been out for lunchtime pee yet.

I had to read it a second time before it clicked that his girl friend isn't insisting on saving the crusts for later. He's just sticking them in the freezer and getting angrier and angrier that she isn't coming over to eat weeks old pizza crusts.
