Yeah she blocked him after he tried to call her, like, if my partner said I have to go to hospital I'd probably call even if it was about balls. And he's only a five minute walk from the club? She had every opportunity to clarify but just assumed his balls was out to ruin her night.

Don't need a reason to end a relationship and whatnot but in no world is this dude in the wrong. I'll give the GF a lot of credit for being there when OP woke up and for staying with him for the two-day stay.

artsy fartsy posted:Oh but here's one we can argue about. Personally, if I was out drinking and got a text from my partner that "I need to go to the hospital because my balls hurt" I would also not take him seriously. Almost any other phrasing would get my attention, but not that Would you also not pick up any calls and call back, and block his number too? Cause thats like super uncaring of the gf to not even try to learn more when she realized she missed bunch of calls

One of the comments says something along the lines of “if I called my girlfriend and my number was blocked, I’d assume I was single and move on with my life accordingly” and I think that just about sums it up

Regarding the whole toilet thing, I am a queer cismale. I started sitting down to urinate a long time ago and I have never understood the opposition. In my own place, someone I know, someone that has invited me to their place for the first time, etc. If nothing else it means you don’t have to deal with the lawn sprinkler bullshit and you can just wash your hands and move on.

AITA for saying to my grandmother “I thought you used a stove for years do you not know how to use it”quote:My stove wouldn’t turn on so I went to my grandmother to ask for help and she went on a 5 minute talk about how incompetent I am for not knowing how to use the stove and said to me “you’ve lived here for years do you not know how a stove works.” She then tried to turn it on and when it wouldn’t turn on I said to her “you’ve been alive for years do you not how a stove works” and so my mother came to me and said “you shouldn’t disrespect your grandmother when she is trying to help”. I have had problems with my grandmother for years because all she does is act like she is the only one that matters. This pushed me to my limit.

I'd like to say no, but sometimes when I drink I get stuck in a thought loop, and if that thought was "this motherfucker is loving with me and thinks he soooo funny" then I might. I don't think she's uncaring, based on how she acted after she came home and realized that his balls did, indeed, hurt.

Sounds pretty annoying actually when compared to just driving for a couple hours on an interstate, but probably isn’t really that bad. There’s roundabouts!

AceClown posted:that's because a 2 hour drive in the UK is very very different from a 2 hour drive in the US. Oh yeah, absolutely. I can't personally speak to what it's like to drive in the UK. I just end up talking with a bunch of people over there since the company I work for is half in the UK and half in the US. I hope I can visit sooner than later and spend some time out there and see the sights. One of my favorite stories of people from England coming to the US was hearing about this couple that was like "Yeah, we're flying into New York for a week. We figure we'll drive to Disney World one of the days, maybe the Grand Canyon if we have time."

When my wife and I were living in the the San Francisco area, we wanted to look at apartments in Los Angeles before we moved. So we got up early, drove to LA, looked at apartments and had lunch, and then drove back home. About 5-6 hours each way. You all are weak!

mystes posted:Driving sucks so I can imagine how you might think that Americans' willingness to drive insane distances must be due to driving in the US somehow being less unpleasant than driving in the UK, but I think you're underestimating how much americans are simply used to spending absurd amounts of time driving. I just drove to the middle of Texas from Northern California a few weeks ago for the eclipse, and back a week later. Roughly 1700 miles one way, or 2740 km in furriner speak. I mean I spread it out over three days, but it was still a bunch of driving. Point is, I found it to be out of the ordinary, but not ridiculous, and I don't understand why Europeans are so bothered with driving long distances. And yeah the UK is one thing, but France and Spain (and OBVIOUSLY Germany) have real nice highways, basically empty because people can't afford the gasoline, and it's just about the same experience as driving US interstates. edit: for comparison, that one-way distance is about 70 miles less than Paris to Moscow.

Otoh, when you're outside, being able to whip your dick out and start blasting piss into the void is one of the absolute perks of male genitalia.

I've driven on way more than my fair share of terrible rural US roads, but my impression from visiting England was that they have a lot of rural roads that are an even more special level of hell in terms of drivability. I can't confirm that, though, because it convinced me to give up on any plans to drive, I took buses and trains everywhere instead.
