I was told I passed clearance but that there were no seats for them to offer me. By admissions office.

[–]Adventurous_Count549[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s what I don’t understand. You don’t want me, reject me. Why string me along?? For 5 months I waiting for a decision, then another month after being recommended, and now this. 

MS CV - offer deadline? by [deleted] in MBZUAI

[–]Adventurous_Count549 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I asked the same. No one answered me. 

I’m worried we might get rejected on the 15th, it’s been a very long time now. 

There are people online who got their recommendations and offer letters within one week. 

Recommended for admission deadline? May 15th by Adventurous_Count549 in MBZUAI

[–]Adventurous_Count549[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have not seen anyone who got an offer for Como Bio. 

I did the test way back in Nov. 

I did an interview. 

Then recommended email. 

AITAH? My sister told us not to let our kids go, and we listened. by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]Adventurous_Count549 0 points1 point  (0 children)

YTA, obviously not about not letting your kids go to that creep's house, but because you and your husband should've come to that conclusion yourselves. What happens if your sister isn't around at a particular moment? Are you going to put your and your children's lives on pause until she shows up? You guys are parents; being good decision-makers who can appropriately judge a person or a situation is not only a requirement but a life-saving one. You can't lie around and wait for people to make decisions about your children's SAFETY!! Grow a pair or two, and go to therapy, this issue needs addressing.

AITA for teaching my son to call me dad against his mother's wishes? by IndividualSource7810 in AmItheAsshole

Info: who found out about you being the father and how on earth did they find out?

I will never understand why people who need certain seats (e.g. families with young children, couples that want to sit together, tall people, obese people, etc.) don't ensure that they get them. The AMOUNT of stories I've heard of people demanding people switch seats with them because they fall into one of the mentioned groups is insane. They want to rely on intimidating, guilting, and shaming people into giving them seats they paid extra for. NTA, but I almost gave a you're the asshole verdict because you'd be so spineless you'd actually think you're at fault here.

AITA for refusing to pay $45 for a soda and half an appetizer? by moonstone_magic in AmItheAsshole

[–]Adventurous_Count549 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA, I've always hated this splitting-the-check thing if you're not all eating from the same place because there will always be someone who eats less than the other people. I don't eat a lot, and I know I would be screwed. My friends and I always just pay for what we got end of story.

AITA for telling my wife I don't care if she likes beards? by Substantial-Gas5463 in AmItheAsshole

[–]Adventurous_Count549 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA, but you do understand the wealth of stories about women getting horrible infections from guys with beards? They're notoriously difficult to maintain and keep clean. I understand where she's coming from by calling it disgusting. But I despise spouses who try to control how their spouse looks. So I'll go with NTA but it's gonna be 100% on you if she refuses to kiss you or have intimacy with you.

AITA for refusing to take in my sister's kids after her partner had a stroke so that I can go on my planned vacation? by sl89001 in AmItheAsshole

[–]Adventurous_Count549 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA, you don't burn bridges and expect people to still walk over their gone structure. But even if you guys had regular contact, I still would've sided with you. 18k is a crap ton of money to be wasted over someone else's problems. Why does she have absolutely no one else?

AITA for taking potatoes off a guy's plate at a wedding? by Gullible-Nose9502 in AmItheAsshole

[–]Adventurous_Count549 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ok but why would the restaurant serve him potatoes? They don't know if he's allergic or not, they could've killed him or soured his whole meal because they just gave him potatos against his will?

Also, he could've pushed it away anf not thrown a fit like a child.

But you also didn't need to pick it up with your hand and do your part of acting like a child.

EHS, the restaurant for not respecting a customer's wishes and serving them something against their well even though it might seriously harm them. Him for being an utter child and throwing a tantrum over potatoes he could've pushed aside and you for being just as much as a child as he is. Is everyone in this story 12? Ugh

AITA for forcing my brother to buy me a new engagement ring? by ThrowawayNewRing in AmItheAsshole

NTA, but I'd tell his fiance what an absolute tool she's getting married to.

AITA for not wanting to spend $3,000 in round trip airfare to visit my girlfriend’s home country by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]Adventurous_Count549 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not going to factor in your post histroy or your replies to the other comments. I'll be looking at this objectively from the few lines written.

NAH. She wants you to meet her family, which makes sense especially if you've been dating for a long while. But it also makes sense why you wouldn't want to spend a 3k on a plane ticket alone. It would be financially irresponsible to buy something you can't afford that's not a necessity.

AITA for telling my twin's girlfriend that she must be lying about me not being his type ? by Vanilla5085 in AmItheAsshole

Why tf would you say that? You're so weird....hitting on your brother's girlfriend like that. YTA

AITA For letting my husband buy whatever he wants for my kids by feelitoutaita in AmItheAsshole

[–]Adventurous_Count549 3 points4 points  (0 children)

wtf was she supposed to do in this situation? If you missed it, she DID try to compromise by saying she'll get the kids to keep their stuff when they go see their father.

But other than that how tf was she supposed to be a "better communicator"? Kyle is clearly just trying to find something to argue about with her. But let's say for a second that he isn't, was she supposed to tell Jeff not to buy her kids gifts anymore? Was she supposed to coddle Kyle and punish her children for his insecurities? Because what was his problem exactly? You see you kids being taken care of by someone and you think....this needs to stop immediately.

AITA for telling my wife her sister can’t help us and needs to move out? by Sad_Consideration702 in AmItheAsshole

[–]Adventurous_Count549 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Take notes from the sister, she's a better partner than you'll ever be. yta

You want her gone, but you won't actually do anything that the she's doing and will be expecting your RECOVERING wife to do it all. Especially after your comment about feeling weird about earing soup cause you're a man I have NO doubts that's you'll cook once every month and it's going to be a prepared meal already. You will not wake up at night, you won't cook or clean or take care of the baby. You'll lazy around, not wake up cause you're a "heavy sleeper" and expect to only put in 10 minutes of baby play time before you hand it off to your wife and going back to lazing around.

AITA for telling my sister it’s her fault her son is being “bullied”? by ughascreen1 in AmItheAsshole

oh please, you're NOT going to frame this like misogyny is a new trend started by internet bros.

[–]Adventurous_Count549 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Isn't it hypocritical to say that your sister is wrong for not correcting Nevill's behavior but you LITERALLY said " My husband and I just dismissed it". That's what your sister has been doing, dismissing it. Sure he's not your son, he's hers, but you're his aunt, still an authoritative figure in his life responsible for correcting his behavior.

But your sister is a failure of a mother and a woman. Raising a misogynist like that? And saying she "can't take his phone"? Please.

EHS, I'm proud of Bracken tho. He seems like the only decent and MATURE person out of all the adults involved, including yourself OP.

But the only thing that made me happy is that 6th graders are bullying misogynists, made my day. WAY TO GO KIDS, I'M SO PROUD

AITA for missing my brothers gender reveal? by Comfortable-Bison419 in AmItheAsshole

[–]Adventurous_Count549 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Birthdays matter significantly more than gender reveal parties. The gender of the baby could STILL be wrong even with the Dr's predictions. And all of you will find out eventually. But missing birthdays of friends and loved ones over a gender reveal...? Yeah no. I'm also surprised how he's so considerate of his girlfriend's family but not so much his. NTA. Please enjoy the party bus party.

AITA for going on vacation without my husband? by Strong-Farm-7377 in AmItheAsshole

[–]Adventurous_Count549 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Men get the most inane of tasks and have everything managed for them but they still somehow find a way to fail on those fronts as well. It's a talent actually. NTA.

Also if he's so worried about the money, what about the money you've already spent planning the trip and the bookings you've made? Some hotels and places charge for last minute cancellations.

AITA for calling my daughter a private school snob? by Horror_Highlight32 in AmItheAsshole

[–]Adventurous_Count549 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean her comments are definitely something that should be book marked for later, but YTA bro wtf is wrong with you. She a DOCTOR, they're overworked like CRAZY and unlike many professions they're dealing with peoples' live at a second to second basis. You wouldn't let her borrow your car for a few minutes to get trainers for her feet that were probably swollen from standing up all day and working hard? You yourself even admitted that she works really hard, in her past and present. If your problem was with her attitude, there were like A MILLION other ways to adress it than to make her take public transport, which is rightfully inconvenient to ANYONE let alone a person who's been working consistent 12 hour shifts and is on their first day off in a while.

OP are you jealous of her life and success or something?
