I think that guy's Halmeoni is dead. I also think the story is made up, she put so much emphasis on the Harmony part and then how her friend who takes a lot of foreign languages was horrified, without saying the language. Like setting up a little riddle for the reader

Like the joke in Arrested Development where the guy asks his brother to spy on his Latina girlfriend because he thinks she’s cheating on him with somebody named Hermano.

Like the joke in Arrested Development where the guy asks his brother to spy on his Latina girlfriend because he thinks she’s cheating on him with somebody named Hermano. Since I assume Harry speaks English with her, it'd be weird if he didn't explain to her that it was his grandmother's soy sauce, not his "Halmeoni's." Not to mention if he only had four jars, combining them only gets rid of three jars, nowhere near enough to solve his packed pantry problem. And by replacing those three with one big enough to hold the contents of all four jars, she's not saving any space. The whole thing seems kind of like a racist joke based on the "l" and "r" sounds stereotypically mixed up in Asian languages.

Crocobile posted:Thank god my mom refuses to learn technology. I'm so loving grateful this poo poo didn't exist when I was younger. It was bad enough having a controlling possessive psycho of a mother before technology enabled 24/7 child stalking. My life would have been an unsurvivable nightmare. Also, I have 3 (sometimes 4) different types of soy sauce in my pantry. They have different uses, and I often use them as ingredients to make glazes, sauces, and dips from scratch that would often be off if I used the wrong type. I'd be so goddamn pissed if someone mixed them all together, and that's without grandma's homemade version. That elevates this from YTA to an acid vat-worthy offense.

WIBTA for selling someone else's books?quote:I (23N) am a high school teacher. About a week before the school year started, a much more experienced teacher (probably late 50s-early 60s, F) decided to take an "indefinite break from teaching" which basically means she quit with no guarantee that she won't come back someday. I was the only person with the certification to teach her subject, so I didn't really have a choice and had to move subjects and classrooms.

Evil Willow posted:[b]AITA for consolidating my boyfriend's soy sauces into one jar? Nobody’s ever hosed with my various soy sauces, oils and vinegars, but last year I had a flatmate come home stinking drunk, and they opened the one bottle of wine I had from the summer I did hard labour in a vineyard, the 2016 vintage. I’d returned to my home county after my marriage suddenly imploded, and I’d signed on to welfare, so I was required to take any job offered to me, no matter how unsuitable. I was basically doing squats for 20 kilometres a day trimming and thinning and wire lifting, paid not by the hour but by the vine. The first few weeks nearly fuckin killed me, but by the time I landed a real job I was the fittest and thinnest I’ve ever been, at 35 years old. I earned that bottle with blood, sweat and tears, and it broke my heart to see it on the kitchen counter with one glass poured from it because my drunk rear end flatmate wanted a glass of wine they didn’t need. Like gramma’s soy sauce, it is irreplaceable. Don’t gently caress with people’s bottles and jars without asking.

Nobody actually likes food that isn't chicken fingers. You just perform exposure therapy on yourself because of various pressures. Just eat the crappy thing until you like it.

Like the joke in Arrested Development where the guy asks his brother to spy on his Latina girlfriend because he thinks she’s cheating on him with somebody named Hermano. When she was still a student, my best friend got a job at a diner. One of her co-workers was young immigrant from Africa who introduced himself as "Hotlove" and everyone called him that as well. By all accounts he was a very sweet gentleman. Only after a few months, when she accidentally glimpsed his id card, she learnt his name was actually "Godlove", but all the other co-workers were elderly ladies from a part in the country where the G is pronounced as an H, so they called him "Hotlove", which he just accepted as the seemingly local pronunciation of his name and rolled with it.

AITA for letting the family dog run away - or more specifically, not actively trying to retrieve it after it got out and ran away?quote:We have a dog, it's about a year old and it's rambunctious. Constantly jumping about, gnawing on things, doesn't listen when called, etc. Redditor posted:What actually happened here? This is the kind of verbiage toddlers use to avoid taking responsibility for their part in a problem. Ex., "My TV broke," or "The plate fell off the table." OP posted:We have the dog's pen in the foyer of the house and unbeknownst to me, the gate wasn't closed properly, which let him escape when the front door was opened. Redditor posted:Almost there....when the front door "was opened" BY WHOM? OP posted:Yeah I opened the front door. The dog's gate should've been secured. I'm not checking the dog when I come in and out the house. I usually ignore it. A resident-involved door opening is believed to have taken place immediately prior to the animal's departure

We found a therapist and we've been seeing her for a couple of years. It hasn't been life changing for me in anyway.
