Another "why did you ever decide to have children with this person???" post AITA for refusing to make breakfast for my FIL quote:I 25F recently got married (8months) to my 28 year old husband. My FIL came to visit 3 days ago and when he arrived late at night I was shocked because we were not expecting him until a day ago.

If I were in her position and asked to iron those clothes I would first say no. The second time asked I would iron the clothes straight into the outside garbage and drive to my parents place.

Call the place he's interviewing and tell them the person they are interviewing is the kind of man who wakes his 8 month pregnant daughter in law at 5 in the morning and demands she irons his clothes and make breakfast

If your job requires you to wear a shirt, imagine how loving debilitating it is when you can't iron one yourself. Like what do you do when there's no woman around? Do you just wander the building/neighbourhood looking for a woman?

Does anybody iron their clothes in this day and age? I'm 42! I have never worn an ironed shirt except at a concert I was in in Jr High School my mom insisted on ironing the shirt for.

cat botherer posted:Does anybody actually call off weddings immediately before they're scheduled (barring something pretty bad)? Just do the ceremony and annul that poo poo, goddamn. You aren't getting out of paying the caterer. I realise this may be strange to you but some people take the ceremony and the oaths seriously. Swearing 'Til death do we part' followed immediately by 'seeya' is kind of not cool. Not to mention you just wasted a whole bunch of people's time to bear witness to a sham marriage.

I have never worn an ironed shirt except at a concert I was in in Jr High School my mom insisted on ironing the shirt for. Depends on what you do I suppose? I have been dressing a lot more casual since the pandemic, especially in spring/autumn/winter, but if I'm teaching a class or meeting students in like June or August, I would be wearing a shirt, untucked and with sleeves rolled up. I'd be more comfortable in a t-shirt, but it's a little too casual for my taste. I'll wear a t-shirt if I'm just working in the office though.

OP Buried the lede on this one for r/legaladvice My landlord walked into my house without permission. quote:Hey guys so I’m looking for advice about my landlord walking into my apartment without permission. I was taking a nap when I got woken but by some loud knocking and he let me know it was him so I yelled “Give me a moment” and he decided to waltz right into y apartment. So I yelled at him to get out of my house and close my door. He started acting super scared I’m guessing because he realized he had no right to enter. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Having a mentor does mean increased specific adult supervision for the bully at least. I imagine the school has a lot of incentive to not let this get any worse.

The Maroon Hawk posted:BF is a shithead obviously but what the gently caress is the point of having a nice car that’s “never driven”? I get reserving it for special occasions or Sunday drives or whatever but literally just letting it sit in a garage forever? poo poo, I’m not even a Car Guy and that still seems like a terrible waste lmao As long as there's no gas in the tank [1] and the battery is disconnected/removed and on a trickle charger [2] and you're willing to put on a complete new set of tyres before driving [3], and you don't have mice/insects/birds/any kind of nesting pest in the storage area, there's nothing wrong with never driving a car, and you may even be able to drive it someday without risking the death of the engine, the driver, or the driver's wallet. [1] Gas/Petrol (depending on what side of the road you drive) is a mixture of various hydrocarbons, not a compound. It gets less combustible and more gummy (hello fuel line blockages!) as it ages. Fuel stablizers can extend the deadline, and gas tanks are technically a sealed container, but google says 3 years is about the max you can expect to store gas. [2] Car batteries degrade over time, even if not used and there's no drain from car systems (alarm, etc). If not kept on a trickle charger/battery maintainer it'll go too flat to start the car/etc within 3 months or so, and of course may corrode leads, etc later on. [3] The rubber in tyres loses flexibility over time as it oxidises ("dry rot") - temp control helps a lot but tires older than 6-7 years are probably going to have some.

I don't believe people who say that they can sense their allergen at the other end of a large building. I also don't believe the dummy who doesn't realize he can just put hazelnut into the coffee after he makes it. I guess he takes it black? The bully mentor story is still so unsatisfying. We haven't gotten even a hint of a reason as to why mom insisted on mentoring the bully.

Flavored coffee beans are absolutely loving gross but essential oils are also awful. I would probably buy the person hazelnut syrup or something if it would stop them from inflicting their flavored coffee bean terrorism on the office though.

WIBTA if i didnt move into a shithole house my bf and his dad want to flip?quote:My bf's (m27) dad (m60s) has proposed a joint venture: we buy a run-down property, renovate it, and either rent it out or sell it for profit. The catch? We'd have to move into the property, pay rent to his dad, and though I (f25) do make a lot more than my bf, we can't afford to stay where we are and pay the rent to his dad. I'm feeling disappointed because I'm quite content with our current living situation. We're in a beautiful rental in a fantastic neighborhood, and I've only recently settled in after moving here about a year ago. I've expressed my concerns to my boyfriend, but it seems like my opinions are being brushed aside. He insists that this is the best way to secure our financial future quickly. However, I believe we could afford to wait and explore other options. Despite my efforts to engage in discussions and ask questions, I feel like my voice isn't being heard. My boyfriend and his dad are actively looking at properties and discussing plans without properly involving me in the decision-making process. I fear that if I resist financially, it might strain my relationship with my boyfriend. While I understand the significance of homeownership as a milestone, I'm not convinced that we need to rush into it right now, especially if it means sacrificing our current stability. Lmao does the BF and his dad even know how to fix a house? the OP posted:i think they know how to do basic ones. replace the sink head...stop a leak under the sink, fill a hole. repair a door, etc. seems magical to me. i should also state, we live in a whole different state than the dad. it would ONLY be my bf doing the repairs or a contractor... How would this poo poo even work? The OP and the BF aren't married, the house will be in the BF's dad's name. They aren't lending to the dad, but paying him rent, so there's no guarantee that the OP will get a cent out of this, especially if they break up. the OP posted:i have NO idea. we arent married, so not even a FIL! but essentially sort of a FIL figure. as far as I am concerned, this wont benefit me financially at all. no exp fixing houses. also, the argument I heard is that my bf will profit, somehow, also unclear. and apparently that somehow benefits me, but if we break up for any reason..........yeah. its. yeah. insane. unfair. not cool. i will have sacrificed a lot for nothing. But I think the BF might be going through some stuff lol. the OP posted:im shocked hes acting this way tbh. typically isn't like these and we behave as equals, even tho I make more, we split everything right down the middle (rent, food we share, utilities, etc). when he said that my jaw was like on the floor and I said verbatim, "so you just expect me go to along with anything you say without a fight? or asking questions?" and he responded with "with something that makes sense like this, I cant see why wouldn't agree to it and be supportive of me! do you think this is a dumb idea? do you want me to wait until YOU buy us a house in the next 6 months? i also don't want to leave our current place either but this is the ONLY WAY to benefit financially for me right now since I cant invest." jfc, if you can't afford to invest, either make more money or stfu, don't drag other people into your dumb schemes.
