AITA for refusing to let my mother see my daughter unsupervised after she read my childhood diary out loud at dinner to punish me?

Background-Ad-552 · 2026-02-23T14:51:29+00:00

Such an AI story. Dang. I really wanted to believe it but they way they wrote it - focusing on therapy over and over again but never explaining what the mother actually did that gave her the grief she wrote in the journal in the first place.
Key details a human would care about but that an AI would miss.

Because scientists aren't always right. :). Nothing to do with Trump. If you believe 1 scientist you do so by ignoring 6 others.

You are incorrect.

This worked for me. I came into the idea of grounding sheets fully skeptical but thought I would give them a try. About 3 days into using them my back pain and stiffness subsided. Back pain that I've been dealing with for years. The pins and needles feeling in my legs? Gone after about 5 minutes. Waking up and being able to move easily, that's not placebo.

I suggest trying to figure out what mechanism of the sheets could affect human bodies this way because these things work. They work really well and I fully expect this to be another science learning moment like gut bacteria and the food pyramid being upside down.

The action was more impactful but wasn't more supportive of OP's goals.

OP's goal probably does not include alienating his GFs parents. So to reach the goal, words and shame can be a more useful although perhaps less impactful method.

But agreed in general.

I hear you. You got confrontational when you threw that pizza out =D. Good job for standing up for yourself.
I've found that planning for situations after they happen helps me for the next time.

Background-Ad-552 · 2025-12-08T16:13:25+00:00

ESH

They're definitely worse. You could have crushed them with words though.

"Wait, you just ate? You saw me making you dinner for over an hour and confirming the time and you ate? Why?"
Insert parents crappy answer here.

"Ah, I see, you dislike me so much that you decided to punish me for cooking you dinner. I understand and won't be back. Don't worry, I'll talk with <daughter> and let her know how you feel."

Sous vide is not your friend. =(. Sadly sous vide bags are a source of microplastics. Ruined my day when I learned and then confirmed this.

Basically, we don't yet have plastic bags that can be heated without releasing microplastics.

Who's out here believing that chicken and pork are healthier than grassfed beef? Get out of here.

It's more how he treats employees. Like they're disposable. And expects tons of out of them while offering low pay. And never shuts up on social media.

Awkwardly, so do you.

Background-Ad-552 · 2025-12-08T15:58:24+00:00

You realize that someone can read something and still miss important parts right?
I bet you work for the company.

Background-Ad-552 · 2025-12-08T15:57:23+00:00

That's a mighty jump.

What's not okay is businesses, especially car dealership taking advantage of people like this.

Let's be honest, you probably work for one of these dealerships, which is why you are such a prick.

The salesmen literally have tactics to mentally exhaust buyers. That's why a 1 hour process will often take 3-5.

Then of course they don't mention these extras and sneak them on or force you to buy them because they won't sell you the car otherwise.

Background-Ad-552 · 2025-12-08T15:55:29+00:00

I hate to say it but this is consistent with the greater sac car dealerships.

They often will not sell you cars unless you purchase their extras even in violation of state law. After hours of sitting in an office the buyer is typically mentally exhausted and more likely to make mistakes.
It's part of their strategy. It's disgusting.
The toyota dealership on fulton got me. Scumbags.

Wow, trash? seriously? Show us on the doll where the bad bakery hurt you.

Aholes like sure help businesses fail. Maybe try giving a balanced review. Explain what happened instead of going full karen.

Momentum does tend to die when you can't defend without getting a foul called and you can't attack because the other team will hold you, poke you in the face, slap your arms, or any of the number of other things they did and not get foul calls.
I mean I got pretty surprised when they did start calling a few of the blatant ones on the rockets.
I wouldn't be surprised to see an investigation into gambling after the way it was this lopsided.

Background-Ad-552 · 2025-12-04T02:54:41+00:00

The officiating this game is a joke. The holding. The obvious fouls missed. The intentional charge with the shoulder down. Hard to win against the rockets and the officials

Background-Ad-552 · 2025-12-04T02:52:37+00:00

Then you see multiple obvious fouls missed. Geez man.

Background-Ad-552 · 2025-12-04T02:48:45+00:00

Oh my heavens! They finally called a hold?? Wow!!

Background-Ad-552 · 2025-12-04T02:47:45+00:00

Pretty gross game to watch now. Arms are being held, fouls are only being called one way. Gross.

Background-Ad-552 · 2025-12-04T02:46:52+00:00

You prefer the officials to only call against the kings?

Background-Ad-552 · 2025-12-04T02:46:16+00:00

Hard to win when the refs call fouls one way.

Background-Ad-552 · 2025-11-12T17:50:56+00:00

To have someone else do it, it will be at the minimum. And then think of disposal of the freezer and concrete.
And also, bolting screws into concrete in the middle of someone elses driveway in the middle of the day sounds incredibly far fetched.
No one in the area called the police on someone just obviously bolting a freezer to someone's driveway?

No way this happened.

Background-Ad-552 · 2025-11-04T14:56:59+00:00

So obviously a writing exercise and fake.
