If you as a man go on Grindr and a gay man messages you and you’re like “lol no I’m straight” then you’re an rear end in a top hat. Also heterosexual women going on Grindr for attention from men are assholes too.

Serephina posted:I know we skipped over this one but... I'm kinda with the OP on this one? Becoming a step parent to a 6 year old when you didn't want kids is very commendable, and I'm sure she's picked up a lot of good parenting tricks she's trying to pass on, but... That's of zero use to the woman about to deal with her first newborn, who exists in a state of sleeping/eating/pooing while poor mom goes slowly insane from sleep deprivation. Handling a moody 6-13 year old has no transferable skills. You're right that the lady has no insight into the first five years, but are you seriously implying there's no skills or wisdom involved in parenting and handling 6-13 year olds because lol.

Help! My Friend Faked Her Own Death—Again.quote:Q. Friend pretended to be dead—how to move on? I know it sounds unbelievable, but a formerly close friend who is mentally ill pretended to have killed herself. She went on a string of unstable-sounding rants to me on her Facebook, through her messaging app, and finally in an email a couple of months ago, accusing me of terrible things that supposedly happened 20 years earlier. “Friends” of hers, who I suspect were really just her, took up the cause, contacting me through her accounts. Nothing I said appeased her/them. It ended after two days of frenzy, with an email from one “friend” saying that she had killed herself. Except … she hadn’t. Our county death records are public and published online, and she’s not on them. Her accounts are still active, and a real-life friend of hers told me that this had happened before, to the point where her friends held a wake and she finally came clean and admitted she was not dead. I know that it’s not her fault because of her illness, but I see old messages and comments (I’ve unfriended her) and wonder if it was all just BS and she secretly hated me all that time. Part of me wants to contact her and talk, but I don’t think I can handle that. Is the best option here to just move on and delete old comments, posts, and emails when they pop up? This is so far out of my wheelhouse. Please help. https://slate.com/human-interest/2019/09/faked-death-mental-illness-sock-puppets-advice.html

This is a good point. Now that I think about it I literally don't know how I would ever "leave my phone unlocked". Unless someone grabbed it in that short window before the screen shuts off. Maybe he was watching youtube or something and fell asleep?

Or maybe he's an idiot and shared the PIN for the phone he uses to sext other women with his girlfriend. Or like a disturbingly large percentage of the population, doesn't employ any security at all on his smartphone.

Husband knocked a drone out of the sky for peeping in our windows, what should we do next? Over the summer, there has been a drone flying around and lingering over our property, with a camera attached. We figured it was due to some construction in the area, or some kind of surveying. At first, it would stay well above our property so we weren't really concerned, but then it started flying lower and more frequently over our home and property. We have 8 security cameras and we started taking pictures of it as well. It's hard to tell how close it is in the photos, but the security cameras have captured quite a bit of footage of it in relation to our house--in our backyard, next to our home, etc. It's going over our 6 foot privacy fence and directly into our backyard while we're outside, and here's the part that concerns me most-it was hovering outside of our windows. We have 6 children, all with bedrooms on the 2nd story, and the drone would hover outside our 4 and 2 year old daughters rooms, in particular. In summer with the windows open (with screens), there were several occasions where our daughters would scream and cry and call to us, telling us there was a robot or blinking lights outside their window, and that it "sounded like bees". Obviously, it was the drone paying them visits. We hung blackout shades and curtains, but since we don't have central air in our older home, sometimes on hot days, we had no choice but to leave the windows open with fans in them, and the drone would pay them a visit. These window peeping incidents happened 16 times! I kept records and gathered evidence and documentation of each incident (security camera footage, dates, times, what happened, etc.) I've called police several times and made reports and handed over flash drives full of our evidence, but they told us there are no specific ordinances about drones in our municipality, and they seem generally disinterested in investigating this. For some reason, they're pretty flippant about it and seem to think it's just a teenager messing with us, which is maddening to me! There are 66 convicted sex offenders within a 1 mile radius of our home alone. I can't even get them to return our calls when I call the officers who took our reports. (We are about 15 miles from an airport, so I don't think we're in a no fly zone) I know you're not allowed to damage other peoples property, and doing so can break some federal laws when it comes to drones. I also know these drones are supposed to be registered or licensed in some way. After months of this and no action from law enforcement, my daughters screaming and crying, and the unsettling feeling of being creeped on, my husband decided to take matters into his own hands. The drone has been coming around 3:00PM most days since school began, which is when we get home with our kids after school. He waited along the fence line near our daughters bedroom with a big fishing net for it to come, and sure enough, it did. He was able to whack it down to the ground and put a large bucket over it. What do we do now? I want to call the police so they can trace the serial number or whatever registration it has, but after looking at some other posts about it, I'm afraid my husband may get himself into legal trouble if we do. This just happened, and no one has shown up to retrieve it yet. Should we call police? Should we take it to the police station? Should we call a lawyer instead? Smash it to pieces? (I'm joking...kind of) How should we proceed with this? Is there any way my husband can not get into legal trouble for this and have the person whose responsible for harassing our family found? Could there be criminal charges for either or both parties? This is in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, USA. EDIT 1: Thank you all so much for the help and advice. I was expecting to be lectured about taking matters into our own hands, but you all gave me some very helpful advice. We were able to retrieve a memory card from the camera, once the batteries died. We reviewed the footage and we now know who the operator is. I've spent the last few hours cataloging and gathering all of my evidence, organizing, and researching statutes and laws. My dad just came over to watch the kids, and we are headed to the Police Department now, with several copies of evidence to hand over, and we will be asking to press charges. This wasn't some teenager like they thought, it appears to be a grown adult with a record. I'll post an update once we're done at the police department. Thank you again for your help!

AITA for suggesting that my coworkers granddaughter might be an introvert? I just moved to a different site in my job, childcare, and was trying to build up some camaraderie(it was actually the best word to describe my aim) between myself and a coworker I was still getting to know. As we were talking she mentioned her granddaughter, whom she had brought up in a small handful of talks before, had been particularly tired after starting school and had been pretty upfront about it(a trait I had noticed before in a previous conversation). So I told my coworker, "it sounds to me like she might be an introvert". I was immediately met with a look of disdain(?) and told to "keep those sort of thoughts to myself". I asked for clarification, got an I would know X better than you(totally valid point i have no real issue with as she is correct) but followed that with "there's no way she's an introvert (clarifying that she did not fear something worse than what I actually said). I kind of just sat there for another minute getting some disapproving glances. When asked if we could talk more so I could understand what happened she refused so I chose to leave. I guess I'm really asking, is there some sort of negative image around introverts I'm not aware of? Especially among older individuals, as I have little frame of reference for back then and I'm confused why I got such a visceral reaction? Am i the rear end in a top hat? Edit: I did try to talk to her today, this happened yesterday, but was brushed off. Also I had mentioned that I just thought it meant really social stuff makes you tired(oversimplification of concept but is literally what I said)

AITA for buying a male friend small presents when I am in a relationship? Within my friend circle is a friend we can call Alvin. Alvin has been a good friend of mine for years. Nothing romantic/sexual has ever happened with Alvin and I genuinely 100% do not think he feels any way about me and I know I don’t feel any way about him. But, he is still a good friend of mine who I see frequently. A few months ago, Alvin and I bonded over this specific brand of seltzer. So, every once and awhile I will pick up a bottle for him if I know I am going over his house or he will be coming over mine. They are only $0.99 so I always saw it as a really casual thing. And, it is usually brought in tandem with other snacks for whatever get together we are having. I’ve never gone out of my way to pick one of for him and it is always in a group setting. I would say I only grab one for him maybe 1-2 times a month but I do normally see him multiple times a week. Again, always in a group setting. We are just part of the same group of friends who happen go out a lot. I started dating my current boyfriend a few months ago. He is mutual friends with most of my friends and blended right into our group. Him and Alvin get along really well and sometimes even hang out without me. However, he thinks it is really inappropriate that I am buying gifts for him. I really don’t think it is a big deal. He has asked me to stop doing it since me buying presents for another guy weirds him out. But, I am not even spending a full dollar on my friend and it makes me happy to get my friend a drink that he likes. Since it is such a small gesture I was thinking of just continuing the tradition despite my boyfriend’s wishes and telling him that he needs to get over it. WIBTA for doing so?
