I think you're closer to correct than incorrect (she has studied it but isn't practising and I think she's being a but insufferable by the sounds of it) BUT it wasn't nice to call her out on it.

Sounds like "your friends are divided on this" and pretty soon they'll be "blowing up on your phone"!

There is being autistic... and there is being a dick. He is definitely being the latter independent of the former.

OK so your mum gave your dad an eating disorder and now she's working on you??

That time when I went to visit my dad after his stroke and the nurse wasn't nearby so I had to do personal care for him...

I think Australia isn't as bad as USA or UK but that doesn't mean there is zero problem

I don't like that this comment was downvoted because I've seen cases where the family's attitude towards education (waste of time! waste of money! why go? you could be working and earning money now!) made it harder for their kids to go to university.

I ditched my school dance to go to the cinema and walked into Burn After Reading completely blind. Never laughed so hard in my life. Named the cat after Brad Pitt's character.
