the obvious intent of expressing the value of self-esteem is that which you lay out in your second paragraph (an internal framework of self-worth). for the sake of verbal autofellatio you pretend that it was your proposal made for the sake of argument and then needle it with semantics that don’t actually discredit it

Pick posted:It was the one where a brother "pranked" his sister out of a college scholarship so she ended up having to take on ~$60,000 debt and he was upset at her for not accepting his "amends" (he was in AA or drug rehab or something) even though he did literally nothing other than admit he'd done that and demand to therefore be forgiven, particularly because, as he noted, it was "just a prank". She was asking if she should forgive him, not realizing the correct alternative, that being that’s like exactly the wrong way to do amends. you acknowledge the wrongdoing, apologize if appropriate, and ask if there’s anything you’ve left out and what, if anything, you can do to make good on the harm you did. you don’t grovel, you explicitly don’t get to expect any kind of a favorable reaction from people, and you sure as poo poo don’t demand forgiveness or justify your actions. that’s just straight up emotionally manipulative bullshit; it’s exactly the kind of “old behavior” that active addicts do all the time and that previous stepwork before that point is organized to help you break the habit of doing, so you can attempt amends without pulling this poo poo. dude was not at all ready do be doing that yet hopefully someone told her that, that she didn’t have to buy into his bullshit

Labes for days posted:You can invite who you want to your wedding but it's sort of a dick move to exclude one in particular and announce this to her at a gathering of family and friends who were all invited without giving an explanation more than a vague "well you didn't come to my birthday parties when I was younger." exactly. ultimately, a wedding is for the people getting married, period. guest lists are a hell of a thing and sometimes tough decisions have to be made. they should invite who they want. however in a situation like this that so obviously has the potential to cause hurt feelings, it’s important to have a reason you feel comfortable articulating to the person’s face and then do the gracious and considerate thing and get out in front of it, not loving humiliate the woman to her face at a family event edit: also, in much the same way as “ultimately, they don’t have to invite anyone they don’t want to, regardless of the reason”, invitees don’t ever have to accept if they don’t want to, regardless of the reason. Props to grandma for standing up for her daughter. edit again: also the aunt does not owe them a gift and should not get them one. that’s a pretty classic open-and-shut case of wedding etiquette; if you’re invited, you bring or send a gift regardless of if you go (weddings are the only event where this is traditionally the case), and if you’re not invited, you are under no obligation to give them a gift, and should not because it is likely to seem passive-aggressive. invitees give wedding gifts, non-invitees don’t, period.

veiled boner fuel posted:I don't know that much about alimony but my sis had to pay child support to her ex husband even though custody was 50/50 because he was a lazy pile of poo poo that refused to work. She worked for the fuckin library making like 35k a year and was paying child support even with joint custody. The judge did at least presume that he was capable of getting a minimum wage job and factored that into the child support calculations, but fuckin jesus, come on. child support’s different than alimony; it’s ostensibly about providing a minimum level of support for the kid(s) in both households and nothing else. fairness between the parents is supposed to be irrelevant.

Moon Atari posted:It makes me sad that children are sort of briefly alluded to in a lot of these stories but are so obviously not a priority in their parents lives. Particularly when it is poly or cheating drama and they have multiple young kids. You shouldn't have time for that poo poo. If you have them they should be a priority that far far outweighs your commitment to experiencing all the varieties of sex you would like to or playing the latest videogame or whatever. yeah, that always loving kills me also if i hadn’t already been fully in support of abortion being available on-demand without charge, this thread would have sold me on it. the idea of having a child growing inside you as your shithead boyfriend shows his true colors is legit body horror

revmoo posted:The hand-wringing about the OK symbol is loving hilarious. Literally 4chan memed the whole concept into existence to clown on SJWs and then those SJWs leaped directly into the trap without any sense of irony. The fact that some white supremacists decided to latch onto it is irrelevant. Also just because somebody is right-wing doesn't mean they're necessarily white supremacist. Just because somebody has different viewpoints doesn't make them a nazi. You'd think with all the ridiculous hand-wringing about nazis these days that they're just lurking everywhere. The word has basically lost all meaning at this point because "nazi" has become basically a catch-all term for "person with differing views than mine" that just happens to also be a label for a vanishingly small percentage of the population with abhorrent, racist views. At this point I see more racial division being stoked by folks on the left than anywhere else. thos gat dam ess jay double us!!!!!!!!

therobit posted:Yes by all means let's call every person who disagrees with us a Nazi instead of realizing they don't have perfect information or understanding and working from there. This will surely not turn off middle of the road low information voters when you call them a nazi because they don't understand why voter ID is bad. if, when pointed out to you that your view aligns with that of white supremacists and nazis, you don’t reflect on and analyze why you have that view and instead lash out like it’s someone else’s problem that you’re siding with nazis, don’t get butthurt when people call you a nazi

Moon Atari posted:That post has to be written with the deliberate intention to mislead. The original post has her and her friends going through every guy in town saying simply don't bother, not worth your time or giving star ratings using the phrases 'bad sex' and 'awful in bed', self-describing it as just having a laugh. Then the clarification is "well actually what we meant was rapey stuff" and we were warning her. Like the first post it is completely reasonable to think that they are just rating guy's performance in a way that would be considered lovely regardless of the gender of the speaker, then the clarification completely reverses the meaning and is at odds with the initial description. beep boop greetings fellow Post-O-Tron, how goes your study of the communication habits of the hyu-mins
