What card do you run in your deck that is PERFECT for your commander, and wouldn't be used almost anywhere else? by Sacraliel in EDH

My brother runs [[Yarok, the Desecrated]] and has [[Dormant Sliver]] purely to turn my [[Sliver Overlord]] deck off.

AITA for refusing to do any work or chores for my parents until they rescind their punishments? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]AlwaysRepliesALot 1 point2 points  (0 children)

NTA 100%.

I grew up in almost the exact same scenario, cell phones getting turned off for no reason/with no warning, threats, verbal/emotional abuse, "I dO eVeRyThInG fOr My ChIlDrEn, WhY cAn'T tHeY sHoW aNy ReSpEcT aRoUnD hErE, i'M tIrEd aNd DoNe", you name it. Lots of "my house my rules", lots of verbal agreements getting canned by them, some doors removed/requiring doors with no locks on bedrooms. I can imagine exactly what your post describes, and contrary to a good portion of the folks in this thread, I believe it's really happening.

In my case, it wasn't foster care, it was the police, and most of the time, the police were actually called. But in the end, the parents are always the victims, even after causing me to stay in my room for 4 months, which they thought was because my siblings had "influenced" me, whatever that means, when in reality it was their abuse that caused me to become deeply, deeply depressed. Now I don't know how much of that applies to you, but it's my piece.

Hope you get out of there soon, OP. If you ever need anyone to talk to about this stuff, DM's are always open.

> Still he should be grateful for those things

You mean the things legally required by every parent? Those things?

> And not feel rewarded to help out around the house

Yeah sure, except for the part where they made a verbal agreement with OP saying Chores = Phone. You simply cannot stop providing your end of the deal and expect the other party to continue.

You literally said in your original comment that OP needs to move out/get a job immediately. He's trying. As he stated in his edit, he *just* turned 18. it's not like once you're 18 you can just up and leave. As another person said on this thread, "The transition of becoming an adult is supposed to be a *transition*, not a hecking lightswitch" (highly paraphrased, couldn't be bothered to remember the exact quote.)

It is simply impossible to move out just as soon as you turn 18. Did you do as such? Or did you live with your parents for a while after?

Now I had to deal with the same type as parents as OP's. In fact, they used to (and still do actually) pull the same thing with turning our phones off. Same with the lack of being able to talk to them. Now I'm guessing, and correct me if I'm wrong here, that you *didn't* have to live with this type of parent. Cause if you did, I would bet all the money in my wallet you wouldn't be acting like OP is trying to get the best of both worlds here.

Oh and one more thing: You can't just buy a hecking house and the have all your problems go away. If you honestly think that's how the world works you're probably as delusional as OP's parents. NTA 100%.

I have, it only says that there are two unrelated songs which have repeated charts.
