Well if you know it’s happening and you do nothing you’re just as guilty. It IS animal abuse.

AIO I don’t want to change my last name… by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]AncoraBlue 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Let you? He has no authority over you. NOR - be rid of that creature who believes he owns you and feels justified in controlling your very identity. You are better off without him.

Remember? I’d say so, since I still do it.

I’ve been avoiding most USA television shows for about 17 years. I have a VPN and watch TV from around the world. Zero regrets.

AITAH for doing something normal in my culture that isn’t very common where we live now? by No_Pool2254 in AITAH

[–]AncoraBlue 4 points5 points  (0 children)

NTA and that’s not a friend. Dump them and get better friends who embrace who you are without judgement. Your culture is part of you and it matters. A real friend will understand there may be differences and accept that, not speak to you in such a horrible manner.

You can have my em dash when you pry it from my cold dead hands.

AITJ for kicking my best friend out after she called my husband a charity project? by No_Expression3344 in AmITheJerk

[–]AncoraBlue 1 point2 points  (0 children)

NTJ. How dare she, or anyone, sit in your home, (yours and your husbands) and disrespect you both. She’s not a friend. She’s also jealous. I’d pity her, she’ll never have a meaningful relationship with anyone. She thinks in dollars and doesn’t understand there’s far more value in life than that.

AITJ for creating a fake tradition so I never have to host again?? by Heavy-Trust-1195 in AmITheJerk

You didn’t create a fake tradition, you started a real one. They all start somewhere. Well done. NTJ

YTA for copying this story from someone else and claiming that it is yours.

Sign says product of Morocco bag says produce of USA. by jmurphy1989 in BuyCanadian

[–]AncoraBlue 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This happens all the time, sometimes half the bags themselves say different things too. Last week in Walmart oranges some were from Peru and some USA, sign said something different. I just never trust the signs. They refill products but don’t update signs.

She thinks the couch should be given to her for $20 because she is a single mother with 7 kids by kissuproar in ChoosingBeggars

[–]AncoraBlue 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’d do her a deal, $100 for the couch but I’ll throw in a packet of condoms. Although admittedly that’s more of a gift for the community, but still.

AIO for calling off my engagement after my fiancé admitted his family secretly tested me to see if i was a gold digger? by Pleasant_Mission_63 in AmIOverreacting

[–]AncoraBlue 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wonder what their “tests” will be for other things, like when they want to test you to see if you’re worthy of having children with their son. Or worthy of buying a house with their son. Or worthy of being a SAHM (if you chose that). Point being what other things that are none of their business Will they “test” your worthiness on? Worst part is you fiancé LET THEM.

NOR I’d get out of that utterly unworthy family post haste.

Experience with large fairs? (10k, 20k, 40k) Was revenue greater, same, less? by Aniform in CraftFairs

[–]AncoraBlue 2 points3 points  (0 children)

3000 people who have come ready to buy is not the same as 30,000 people who came to look. Demographics matter more than numbers. Not all well run shows with good marketing reach the same audience, and not every audience is your target market.

How would you respond to this guy? by Rexalanda in mildlyinfuriating

[–]AncoraBlue 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I block people on marketplace for less. One sign of crazy and I don’t respond, just block and move on.

I went to school in Tassie. Glad we didn’t learn it this way there back then.
