Lol, this old one came up when I was looking up the Disney one:

AITA for not accommodating my brother in law during my birthday dinner and telling him his taste wasn't my priority?

Imagine knowingly going to an Indian restaurant and being like "one burger, please". And then getting mad when they won't magically apparate some fries for you.

His family is doing him a huge disservice by not just laughing and laughing at his tantrum and his child-like taste in food. You let him get away with this for too long.

How dare you not tell us you're not as incompetent as we told you that you are! You're making us look bad by letting us make fun of you for all these years!

I'm glad this girl found healthy people to be around, but I am also saddened that the world may never see the clumsiest serial killer born from hate and stubbed toes.
For real though, good for her. Glad her husband's family has her back by just being decent.

I really feel bad for kids who are step-siblings. Imagine discovering porn in this time of age, when everything is step this and step that.
What happened to clean and good ol' days when plumbers just needed to get paid but there was no $$$ in the house.

I've heard that whole genre being so prolific is basically because it is specifically the fetish of the owner or CEO of pornhub.

I doubt that. It's probably more along the lines that a lot people have step siblings and kids, and it's the forbidden fruit that won't produce monster offspring.

She isn't gonna give a poo poo now, but the mom may be worried that her daughter will keep and cherish it for a number of years, and then find out her precious childhood keepsake is a toy made for animals at an age when she might be offended by that revelation.

Yeah, a good prank doesn't generally leave a victim crying from physical and emotional pain.

I'm also dying at the "super fuckable" 300 morbidly obese woman. When people use the term fuckable, they generally mean how hot someone is and it's not a statement to quantify the amount of folds and flabs that one can insert themselves into.

One of the things that bothered me most about the dorm bathrooms during my first year at university, was that you could walk into an empty room, go to the furthest toilet stall from the door, and, inevitably, if someone else walked in while you were in there, they would ignore the entire row of toilets on the other side of the room, sit in the stall right next to you, and try to start a conversation.

WTF I DON'T WANT TO TALK WHILE ON THE TOILET, GO THE gently caress AWAY!

Did they ever slide their foot under your side of the stall, the notorious sign for "want to have a conversation?"

Or was it more like, "Pooping huh, well alright."

The story changes quit a bit when you think of the person as a girl instead of a dude with his hose. I could see why a friend would be mad at her gal pal for squatting over the floor and not the toilet.

Please explain.

Men, for better or worse, get a little more leeway when the hose sprays haphazardly (2 AM morning wood), especially from other guys.
For a woman to hit the toilet seat, I would imagine she is doing some crazy hover technique to not hit the seat. That, or she wasn't at the toilet to begin with.

Now we are missing big context as where the pee ultimately landed. Did they hit the wall behind the toilet, the ceiling, just the floor alone, doused the toilet roll in piss, there are a lot missing clues to unravel this mystery.

my friend at UCLA said the worst thing he witnessed was a young women in a short skirt coming back from.a night out with a guy. At the street corner she holds on to him for support, reaches down to pull her underwear aside, and pisses right onto the curb, and then they walk off pretending nothing happened

I watched my prom date do this to a tree. She then cried later, because one of our other friends got tagged for drinking.
Poor kid who got tagged never really drank or did drugs due to his older brother OD'ing, but his hot prom date convinced him. The principle wouldn't let me take him home, and they called his parents.

Lady goons, I would not recommend peeing in front of your date unless they request it.

Tracks a lot with autism / ADHD, especially the formidable tag team they make. Rotating hyperfixations get crazy. And with personal experience, it may come off like being high on cocaine because that's pretty much how it feels.

You seem pretty self-aware, whereas this lady is in the loving clouds.
Out of curiosity , when you start to fixate on something, does it take a while before you realize what is happening to start pumping the breaks? I honestly can see this being kind of a blessing to make life have more joys if you are capable of reigning it in.

I also can see it being a major curse if it's melding into a form of mania.

It depends a lot, and it's taken a lifetime of learning things the hard way. The experience can be extremely different depending on how socially acceptable the special interests are, after all. (Goons in particular should know from both ends of that.) And I'm pretty used to doing things on my own time rather than sharing them with others. (and if anything, it gets annoying when my friends introduce me to something and I start to get into it just as they lose interest and move on) I do try to be more self-aware about it these days, both to avoid burning myself out and annoying others, and also to better ride the wave.

I think it's also one of those things that contributes to autism and ADHD being massively under-diagnosed in women and girls, since quirky manic obsessions are considered a lot more acceptable, or at least a charming quirk.

Thanks for sharing GL and Schwoo. I think you're on to something with the Manic Pixie Girl theory; there's a dissertation in here for sure.

it definitely seems like she forgot she wasn't the main character lol my guess is that she was hemming and hawing over if she was ready to settle with the only person she's ever really dated as an adult, and the girls had a fabbo plan to take her on one last grand hurrah to make sure it's what she really wanted. who knows how the idea to just drop it on him and bail came to be, but her dumb rear end actually somehow thought he'd be waiting for her on the other side of this if she just sprung it on him at the airport.

The talk that she was originally planning when she returned was either going to be, 'We're breaking up, I can't get married, I need to go live life', or, "(By banging other people in Europe and not being impressed) I realized I actually love you, and I'm really ready to settle down', depending on how the vacation went. I don't think it actually occurred to her that while she was weighing her options, he'd be the one to step away.

It's alarming that she apparently isn't concerned that she's almost caused fires. I've forgotten that I had stuff cooking a few times when I was younger but I learned from that. She needs to be careful about setting a timer and/or staying in the kitchen if she's prone to that.

I get the feeling that this girl isn't the sharpest pencil at the community college.

It's not a community college

I don't think the girl who is incapable of cracking child-locks is going to Yale, unless there is a big surprise twist that there is a physical issue with her. If this is the case, childproofing the stove is kind of messed up, even if necessary for self-survival.
I say this as someone who went to community college. The price of admission was a pulse and a yes/no question if we could open childproof locks. They didn't even check to make sure if you actually answered truthfully.

My wife has IBS, and I swear to god it seems like she just goes in there, sits down, leans all the way over, and grabs her ankles to let it spray. I make sure she hears me call her the rear end Blaster 5000 every time I clean the toilet. Her mom had to ask her when she was little, "Are you doing it right?"

I don't blame her for wanting to hide it as long as she could in her relationship, but the second he moved in she needed to spill..... the beans. The guy isn't going to care; and, if he does, he wasn't worth keeping around.

Do you think that the coworker who spent hours (according to her) making banana bread with no idea whether he likes banana bread, tracked down his desk, and showed up and tried to give it to him, and then got mad when he said he doesn't like banana bread because he had spent hours making it is "successfully navigating social situations"?

All she would have done to make this not weird would have been to tell him the day before at lunch "I'm going to bake a bunch of loaves of banana bread tonight; do you want one?" instead of freaking out when she suddenly showed up to give him an unsolicited gift and he declined because he doesn't like banana bread.

Yeah, she didn't really do anything wrong other than fail to hide her disgust at this guy. She obviously likes him and he hurt her, so she got mad.
Honestly, calling this guy out, to me, is perfectly fine. She would also be fine to just walk away realizing she dodged a tactless bullet.

What grown rear end person doesn't know how to graciously accept a gift they do not like.

My brother and I both had to shut down our mother posting an event we did during some holiday to Facebook. It was dumb game she saw somewhere, so we had to emulate it. We basically had the sit-down, "Do not post recordings of us online without asking our permission first. The answer will pretty much always be a ''don't'."

The chance that your online presence will cause you harm is far higher than any benefits. I feel so bad for these kids. I'm all for recording memories, but why does the whole world need to be privy to them?

More importantly, Banana Bread owns.

It breaks my heart because so often it's someone who put a lot of effort into trying to give me a gift or say thank you for something.

I bet you learned how to politely decline though. "I really appreciate you making this for me, but I have celiacs. I know someone at home who would absolutely love it. Do you mind if I give it to them?"

Or do you smack it out of their hand, "are you trying to loving kill me?!"
