When I was a kid on holiday in Portugal, I needed a hat, so we just grabbed a baseball cap that said "sporting" on it. I thought it was just a generic hat supporting the concept of sports I wore it to school and my Portuguese friend was very angry. Apparently "Sporting Lisbon" were his football team's deadly rivals. But we were like 9. This guy sucks.

Football rivalries in the UK can be pretty intense. Letting the daughter get her father one from the wrong club is setting up this situation. The OP admits she considered it quote:picked out a blue one for him. I knew it wasn't his team but theres nothing on the actual ball, it just said the team on the wrapper. and she would have seen this situation coming.

I think the guy so mad about football the second he had his wife in private he called her a bitch is the rear end in a top hat

Or does wrapper mean something other than a plastic coating to protect a toy or something?

Akratic Method posted:This is pretty stupid and my bias is toward contempt for treating sports rivalries with any seriousness. But I kinda still have to judge OP the rear end in a top hat here, hinging on "I didn't know that, obviously I ignore all his sports talk." Pay attention to your SO so you know what they like! At least a little. That's like gift skills 101. A three year old picking put a gift for dad and remembering (and caring) that dad likes blue is great. That 3yo should also not be the more mature of the two.

Or does wrapper mean something other than a plastic coating to protect a toy or something? Team colours are pretty distinctive and very well known. It could likely mean old mate would bin the gift rather than chancing his mates seeing it when they drop around. If you don't believe it is not weirdly serious (and sometimes tied to religious or class divisions), try out your green /blue shirts in the wrong parts of Glasgow. My Aussie ruggers scarf got me kicked out of a pub in Glasgow after my first drink because someone across the bar took offence (the bar tender told me "You are probably not wanting what you are asking for, so best you leave". OP probably got a chuckle out of the thought of her sports mad ex getting the rivalry team merch given to him by his child. Probably let the child do it just for the lols/prank factor.

I think if the OP knew that her husband was such a baby about his team she probably could have steered their 3yo towards picking the "proper" ball, but also it's a loving 3yo's gift and the guy throwing a baby tantrum over his toddler's gift is the much bigger rear end in a top hat. The fact he had to be bullied in putting on a brave face in front of his kid is stupid as gently caress and the fact he thinks his wife was doing it to spite him means there's bigger problems at play there anyway.

When I was a kindergartener in Wisconsin there was a little holiday book/trinket fair for kids to buy gifts for their parents. I knew my dad watched football so I got a little Packers football zipper tag for him. When he opened it he thanked me and put it right on his jacket where it stayed until the jacket was totally worn out. What I didn't realize at the time was that my dad despises the Packers. He managed put that sports hatred aside because it was a gift from his son and he isn't a massive piece of poo poo like the guy from the story.

B-Rock452 posted:I am rolling in twizzlers right now since my kids don't like them. It rocks. Candy tax dad is an rear end in a top hat though Yeah, here's an instance where having picky kids pays off. As kids, my sister and I wouldn't eat any chocolate with nuts or coconut in them, certain flavors of lollipop--- eeww! So mom got all the Mounds, peanut M&Ms, pineapple candy, etc. My sister disliked dark chocolate, so I'd trade her my milk chocolate for that. Honestly one of the best parts of trick or treating for me was the post-game time when we got home, dumped our pillowcases full of goodies out, and all sat around the haul, making trades like some magic candy bazaar. Candy tax guy is doing this all wrong, unless everyone in the family hates Charleston Chew (hint: they do)

Finding someone else's panties doesn't make any sense to me as a thing that happens. Like, after the sex is over and you've cleaned up, you would put your clothes back on, right!? People put their clothes back on! So how do people leave their underwear places? They just leave with no underwear on and didn't notice?

AITA for asking my new boyfriend to buy more Halloween candy because his niece took all of mine?quote:On Saturday I hosted an adults only Halloween wine night. Most of my friends have children and they look forward to having a night away. We put on a scary movie, paint or carve pumpkins, drink wine, and eat snacks. My new boyfriend of 2 months said he was bringing his sister to join which I was excited about because I’ve only ever met her in passing twice but she’s around my age and seems really nice. She has 2 children so I specifically reminded my boyfriend it was adults only. Of course she shows up with her daughter who is 10… I love kids but this night specifically is meant for and planned for adults. I don’t have children so my house isn’t even kid friendly. 2 months and $100 isn't much sunk cost, at least

Being extremely angry about an admittedly serious question can be pretty suspect, but not necessarily a smoking gun. Combined with ALWAYS WORRYING about your partner cheating and CHECKING THEIR PHONE AND LAPTOP??? That's loving textbook. He's cheating, or cheated, and will again.

That's something that always amuses me in these stories of infidelity, the person who's cheating gets so paranoid that their partner is cheating on them as well. Like if it's fine for you to do to them, should be fine for them to do to you. But it's never ever the case.

There are things he finds beautiful about me (like my eyes, smile, lips, cheeks, neck) but there are also things that he doesn't like (I asked) like my big forehead, that I am too skiny, my jawline etc. However, he shows me love and kindness and makes me feel appreciated daily!

Any gift a 3 year old gives you, you overenthusiastically accept it. Even if it's just some tiny pebble they found in the sidewalk. Anyone who behaves differently is a certified rear end in a top hat.

I was a bit confused because I associate Calvin Klein with briefs/male underwear but I think these were women's underwear, so if her boyfriend said they were his he'd probably have to lie about being a crossdresser or have other weird questions to answer and he seemed pissed off about that insinuation when she asked. Anyways, hopefully reddit set her straight about him being an rear end in a top hat cheater and she dumps his rear end. But I must also admit I'm confused about the scenario in which someone just leaves their underwear behind.

Part of being a sports fan parent is watching the game, your kid coming up and asking “Who do you want to win?”, you answering “The guys in the white shirts”, and then replying “Okay! Then I’ll be the blue team!” as they excitedly sit next to you. Most of the time they forget afterwards. The rest of the time they end up as a Golden Knights fan.

I can only assume the side piece was tired of hiding and wants to blow up the relationship so she can have that sweet pile of cheating manflesh all to herself. Or he cross-dresses, either-or.

"Insecure man pilots his entire relationship into a cliffside because he'd rather his girlfriend think he's cheating than know he's cross-dressing" is a plotline I've seen at least once before, so.
