imo a lot of childfree people soften on the idea after spending time with kids because popular media and society at large treats having children as a nightmarish burden to shoulder that will drain your bank account and all your free time and reward you with screaming toddlers and dirty nappies. Toddlers especially get an incredibly bad rap.

AITA for spending nearly 2k on Lego sets?quote:I am a huge fan of models and building kits, I am into Gunpla, Warhammer, and Lego. New star wars set came out and I picked it, and another one and my wife had a royal poo poo fit. The last line could describe 99% of these posts.

i have some relatively expensive hobbies too, such as riding motorcycles, but $2,000 is actually enough to buy an entire motorcycle and you bet i'd get some poo poo about doing that out of the blue from a shared account.

Have you ever paid a debt? It's the least satisfying way to spend money, worse even than paying bills every month. Honestly if I could avoid repaying my student loans ever again, I would be fine with that. Nobody building a cool Lego set ever went "argh I wish I had less of something instead of all these dope legos"

AITA for accidently eating co workers sandwich and leaving note with 20 dollars saying "sorry buddy ): " quote:Work at a warehouse in the middle of nowhere, 15 minuets away from the nearest town and subway sandwich store. I LOVE SUBWAY. I forgot my lunch one day and was about to suffer through a 12 hour shift. I saw a subway sandwich in the fridge and assumed it was left by someone so I ate it as it was a black forest ham which is my favourite. I left a note pinned to the fridge with 20 dollars folded in the envelope. on the envelope it said, this is more than 2x the value of your sandwich, im sorry, i was really hungry. I swear it was an accident, my mouth slipped and fell on it

I do and I would eat it more often because I apparently live down the street from the one non-lovely Subway in the entirety of Texas, but I would not bellow it aloud like a Frankenstein like that, no.

I love how Subways used to smell. Lol athe suggestion "should've put your name on it." He was already assuming with no effort to check if anyone there was gonna eat it and yeah right that a name on it would be the magic ward for hin to be considerate. Sorry dude, you planned for lunch and I didn't so you know how it goes.

It's not a bad experience or anything, I've never even tasted it because of how it smells. I assume I have a smell receptor for some unusual molecule or something, like the people who hate cilantro.

I call bullshit since anyone that’s a big enough rear end in a top hat to steal communal fridge lunches would never say anything to anyone about it. Then after a month or two a memo will go out to tell people not to steal food out of the fridge for fucks sake.

I don't want the castle set, I want the dragon-catch set where 2-4 horses had this cart where the green or black dragon was caged. THIS ONE: Dragon Wagon 6056 But there was also a black dragon.... AITA for asking my husband why dishes were piled up in sink? quote:My husband has been unemployed for the past five months. Before he quit his job, we had a verbal agreement in place that I would float him until he found a suitable job in exchange for him helping with the housework and cooking. After I worked a 12 hour shift, I came home to dishes piled in the sink and him asking me what I want to do about dinner. When I firmly with attitude asked why dirty dishes were still in the sink, he spent 10 minutes defending himself and telling me what a busy day he had applying to jobs, taking our 7 year old to get a haircut, doing a phone interview and talking to a tax relief company. In the time it took him to plead his case, I had already washed all the dishes, and began preparing dinner. When he finished talking and saw I was starting on dinner, he told me he would handle it, so I could go upstairs to change out of my work clothes. He is upset because he feels if the tables were turned, it would be wrong for him to come home and ask me why I didn’t wash the dishes. I’m upset because we have an agreement, and I feel that he’s not keeping up his end of it. I get that days can get busy, but when he told me he “only” took a 20 minute nap today, I became even more annoyed. Yes, I did have attitude, and I probably should have gently asked him when he would be able to get around to helping with the dishes, but AITA?

Children often represent and exhibit all of the monkey behaviors we wish to either encourage or push down. They can be equal parts cruel and kind, full of wonder and boredom. I think in some way's we're jealous of them as adults, feeling everything so strongly. Some people get angry at them for being so lucky and some people try to live vicariously through them and encourage them. Though some hate them and try to live vicariously through them. I find people that have a lot of regret in their lives tend to hate children the most. They also tend to be the most bitter. I love to see children or younger adults do well, I want for them things that I didn't have. I want them to feel good things, some do not want for children to do well. But I don't necessarily define those people as evil or anything, just sad. worthy of pity. [e] to clarify, toddlers are annoying. but we love them anyways.

Or some people just don't like kids? They're loud, messy, a huge drain financially and emotionally, etc, and not everyone gets a big endorphin rush from seeing a baby coo or whatever. I've known tons of people who can't stand to be around kids and seem perfectly happy otherwise. They aren't bitter husks full of recrimination, they just want to spend time with other adults. Yeah the people who make hating kids a central part of their identity are annoying, but generally speaking so is anyone who makes hating anything a core facet of who they are.

What kind of money pit should you yeet into when you're done with horses, Funko and Legohave lost their allure, and you don't like sneakers? AITA for telling my friend her doll was a knockoff? quote:This might be kind of niche, but I feel bad about so here we are. One of my hobbies is collecting Ball Jointed Dolls (BJDs) and we have a local group for it. These dolls are typically very expensive because of the work that goes into them and are usually small companies or individual makers and not mass-produced. Speaking of, I found that dragon cage set I was looking for that I had when I was a kid, the Lego dragon was so sweet, but it's like 50 bucks and I just don't think I could justify that one. That's a full tank of gas or ten loaves of bread.

A lot of childfree people tend to be making pretty obvious reactions to how they were brought up expecting to have children as a matter of course regardless of personal desire or ability, especially as we've seen over and over how girls are treated as free babysitting, and baby trapping is done under the assumption that seeing a baby will cause a magical transformation in someone who's made it clear they do not want children. Some people definitely get weird and stupid about it, but the boundaries are hard and viciously enforced out of necessity.

I know that I cannot have children because I know I cannot give the attention, care and love that a human requires to grow up. I can barely manage that for myself, and every day I collapse into bed in near exhaustion. Having another being that is dependent on me for that and more? No, I would not be able to do what needs to be done.

Both things are true, toddlers are a joy and they also sometimes start screaming because you won't let them eat food out of a public trashcan. I can appreciate that it's hard to learn to become a person while at the same time acknowledging that it sometimes sucks to deal with the fallout of that process
