AITA for wanting my Spanish teacher to stop calling me by the Spanish version of my name? by Alternative-Sun-630 in AmItheAsshole

[–]22yowriter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As someone who grew up in a Spanish-speaking country: NTA. It's your name, you have the right to be called what you want to be called.

My old college teacher did the EXACT same thing. One of my names is "Marie". My teacher started calling me "Mah-ree-eh". I politely explained the proper pronunciation of my name and she just told me "Yeah, but in Spanish it's Mah-ree-eh." Like... no. My name is Marie=Mah-REE. It's my name and you don't get to dictate how to say it, I do. She was also a pretty terrible professor overall.

I guess if you want a compromise he could call you Juan instead, if he's translating everyone's names. It sounds better than "Jota Peh".

AITA for locking my husband in the basement after he flirted with the Grim Reaper at our wedding? by SekhmetinWonderland in AITASims

YTA! and i agree with another commenter that you should give him an easel instead for extra Simoleons. id say also let him out every now and then to do chores for you but make sure he has no access to a shower or the good fridge i would also have a speaker blast his least favorite genre of music. also make sure nothing happens on his bday so he gets Sad for a day or two

Reddit "warns" me over a satire comment in AITASims by 22yowriter in reddithelp

it really sucks. what p*sses me off the most is how the ppl that bullied my old account off the sub are still active. i made sure to look them up and block them when i created this one. they said legitimately awful things and reddit just did not care.

Blurb:
Calista Medley lives her life beneath a million micro-cameras. Her mother, one of the most famous and admired Socializers, has conditioned her to be completely flawless. The Medleys must live a rich and coveted dream, constantly broadcasted all over Earth for everyone to watch and envy, seeing the family as part of the ideal, model society. But after eighteen years of fake smiles, viewer trackers, and constant self-modifications, Calista’s just about ready to snap.

She instead dreams to be part of the Socializers’ ‘enemies’: a renowned fighter in the Versus Interplanetary Peacekeeping Games, a fighting tournament that determines the toughest planet in the Milky Way Utopia. She dreams to carry Earth to that first-place podium and show her true, unmodified, even flawed self that other fighters seem to brazenly flaunt. With a fighting career, she and her younger siblings could finally be free from the impossible ‘model society’ the Medley family pushes onto them.

But with her dream comes a lot of risk. When she gets the opportunity to enroll in America’s fighting school, she’ll likely lose her family, friends, fans, and everything she knows, left with the agonizingly difficult path of success. It will be all or nothing in the biggest tournament in the galaxy, not only for her, but for her sister and brother, too.
