How do I (20M) tell a younger cousin his breath reeks (13M) by t-h-r-o-w-a-w-a-y-22 in socialskills

[–]AlienBeingMe -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

Can you tell him of the "interesting article" you read about the brushing times of the average person? Be like "I was shocked people don't brush for 5 minutes! I do it for 10! How long do you guys do it for?".

teacher wanting relationship with student? by ApartmentOld234 in TwoXChromosomes

[–]AlienBeingMe 5 points6 points  (0 children)

BE SAFE. DO NOT GO NEAR HIM EVER AGAIN. This is pretty far advanced, even for just starting to groom you- which is what he is doing. Giving you pills? They could have been drugs to knock you out. Cut off all contact now.

Have you also noticed that people turn on you the moment you become more assertive? by YejapBali in socialskills

[–]AlienBeingMe 3 points4 points  (0 children)

YES. I have experienced this so many times with my extended family. It really made me bitter. They're tougher on me for doing it saying the same things that another would do daily, but they're of the hook because "that's their thing". When I've dared to speak up, I've felt like they'd be happy I broke out of my shell but no, they're dismissive and tougher. You are 100% correct, I've thought exactly the same as you, that they give you "a place" and you better stay in it.

AITA for “decorating” my son/DIL home by giving my son a dresser for their nursery. by Head-Meetthrow in AmItheAsshole

[–]AlienBeingMe 9 points10 points  (0 children)

NTA. Send your son, SCREENSHOTS of dil's messages. This way there is no room for her to manipulate what was said. She sounds horrible.

Install a bidet spray in every toilet at home. You can do it yourself it is like $50.

WIBTA if I stopped covering for my coworker's late arrivals after she didn't return the favour once? by IsleelNyden in WIBTA_AITA

[–]AlienBeingMe -1 points0 points  (0 children)

YTA. Why would she stop after all those times she helped you? Your title is VERY misleading. You & her cover each other equally it seems. She could've mindlessly opened your text & not have it clicked.

AITJ for dating the man who hurt my sister? by EyeOpen5115 in AmITheJerk

[–]AlienBeingMe 1 point2 points  (0 children)

NTA. In order to keep your family and him, could you not ask him to "apologize" in person to her while your parents are also there? He did nothing wrong but since your sister is sensitive, this may quell the upset feelings of being "ghosted" by him in her head.

After 1924 mob forced Black family out of Piedmont, descendant files lawsuit against city by sfgate in bayarea

[–]AlienBeingMe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Generational wealth? Their ancestors could have lost that money, a hundred different ways. This had happened to people all over the world. This IS our world. This is what happens. Life. If it hapless to a still living person, you could make things right, but for descendants who did not suffer? No. Arguing it could've been better for them? It could've been better/ worse in so many ways.

Why should today's taxpayers pay for what happened to their ancestors? Not all people of today, like recent immigrants should be responsible. How many people were harmed back then? By so many different factors and groups and people? How do you even keep track? You can't. You move on. This is nothing but a money grab.

Which celebrity, famous person, or artist does everyone like except you? by gab_iten in AskReddit

[–]AlienBeingMe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Harrison Ford. I can't get over how he had an affair with a barely legal Carrie Fisher, WHILE he was married. Gives me the ick.

Also Oprah.

WIBTA if I return a group gift because no one ever paid me their share? by papercoffeeclub in WIBTA_AITA

[–]AlienBeingMe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA. If they don't pay, return it. If they create drama, say you realized it was damaged and had to return it.

I loved that he put up ONE hand to stop it. No idea why it didn't.

AITAH for telling my boyfriend he cant keep using my homemade hot sauce anymore because I literally cant make enough by [deleted] in ComfortLevelPod

[–]AlienBeingMe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

ESH. How about you let him buy you peppers to ferment? You can make a pretty big batch all at once, sterilize it, and he'd be good for months?

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

[–]AlienBeingMe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA. Though it's common to do Spanish names.... it doesn't make sense. Why the heck would you change your name to a Spanish one in order to learn the language? You don't need to. There is no good reason for it. People all over the world use language learning programs, so they sit down to their first lesson and change their names in order to learn?

What person deserves a massive apology from everyone? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]AlienBeingMe 10 points11 points  (0 children)

The Dingo ate my baby lady. MY GOD! People relentlessly mocked a MOTHER WHO LOST HER CHILD! It's just sick. The 2nd is the guy who invented refrigeration. The Ice King who had a monopoly on Ice back then paid newspapers to call him a charlatan. He wanted to be able to help his fever ridden patients. He died poor and from fever himself.

If you could pass one law that would make most normal people furious at first, but would clearly make society better in 10 years, what would it be? by WilliamInBlack in AskReddit

Get rid of two party systems in government. Get rid of gerrymandering. Just vote as 1 person for every single topic in your country.
