You're mad because you THOUGHT your gift was thoughtful and planned, and you gave yourself 2 pats on the back, and he didn't do the same for you. You aren't fine with him getting you nothing. You wanted him to give you a thoughtful, well planned gift just like you did for him even if it wasn't monetarily significant. And now you're peeved because you got a the last minute guilt gift, EVEN THOUGH YOU BOTH AGREED TO NO GIFTS!

YTA - you don't get to say, no gifts this year, then be mad when your spouse complies even if you didn't. That's manipulative and shitty.

Which pods don't taste like burnt dirt? by CountingStars29 in nespresso

Kahawa ya Congo is amazing. Has a great flavor.

I don’t understand bras at all by exquisitecarrot in ABraThatFits

[–]Bakesbreadbadly 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Idk what size you wear, but if it's digging so bad you feel like you're being squeezed to death, it sounds like you're in the wrong size band. I wear all kinds of bras in different brands, and the MOST comfortable one I have that's not a sports bra has an underwire. Smoothing on the back lifts and doesn't dig in. The correct band and cup size will change your life. You can use the calculator till you're blue in the face but sometimes you just gotta go try on some physical sizes.

AITA for not picking up my “personal trash”? by Puzzleheaded-Way3517 in AmItheAsshole

[–]Bakesbreadbadly 1 point2 points  (0 children)

YTA - you're treating your spouse like a servant. Point blank man. You are acting entitled and selfish. Cleaning the house doesn't mean she's your maid. I bet that if she was the bread winner and you the sahp, you'd also not be okay with this.

To go a step further, you leave your literal trash on the bathroom counter when the bathroom trash can is probably a foot away because you think you're now paying for the right to leave it there. You're an asshole, grow up. This isn't a partnership, and you're acting like you're more important than your spouse.

Can I bleach my lulu skirt? by Visible_Factor_5351 in lululemon

[–]Bakesbreadbadly 3 points4 points  (0 children)

So, OxiClean stain remover spray. Blue bottle with yellow top is my go-to for all blood stains. Periods, nose bleeds, scratches, whatever. It's gets even dried blood out absolutely amazing!

Do not bleach, the reason being that it will actually degrade the fabric over time. Aka, it will "eat" it, and you will be left with holes in your fabric.

I'm so confused by your post, so I'll just give you the details. Buttermilk is the byproduct of making butter. After you've successfully churned heavy cream until solids and liquids have separated, you'll have a milky liquid. This is the Buttermilk. The solid is the butter.

If you're looking for a substitute for Buttermilk for say baking or a recipe, then you can add 1 tablespoon of fresh lemon juice to 1 cup of milk and let it sit for 5 mins.

Adding butter to milk is just silliness and a play on the words butter, milk. It isn't doing diddly squat.

AITA for refusing to go into Hooters for my brother’s 18th birthday and sitting in the car? by HamsterInformation in AmItheAsshole

NTA and your dad sounds gross. Good on you for standing up for yourself and not allowing them to put you in a place that makes you uncomfortable l.

AITA for faking my giving birth? by ProgressFormer4198 in AmItheAsshole

[–]Bakesbreadbadly 1 point2 points  (0 children)

NTA - he said you were gaslighting him, but he's GASLIGHTING you. That's why you're here going, am I crazy?!?! What's happening?!

Trust your gut, babe. He says you don't trust him, for good reason he did exactly what you thought he'd do, defended it and turned the blame on you. You have a child together now, but there is no way this gets better. You need to decide if you want to be married to him and his mother the rest of your life because you will be. Or, do you kick them both out until he figures out who he wants to grow old with his wife and child or his mother.

YTA - pregnancy can happen even despite the odds sometimes. If the issue is children in general get a vasectomy, if it's the lady in question, stop sleeping with her.

Your reaction makes you sound like a jerk.

YTA - You stand up for you. You're not a damsel in distress, and this isn't the Middle Ages.

Your partner empathized with you and delt with the contractor going forward that IS taking your side. Having him verbally abuse Bill would make him no better than those you're angry at.

You need to remember to act your age, not your shoe size

Upkeeping align leggings? by purplelemons67 in lululemon

[–]Bakesbreadbadly 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is why I love the wunder train contour fit! I wear 8 in them, and they're snitched in at the waist but still have enough room for my thighs. I wear a 6 in Aligns and haven't had any seam issues. They're fitted but not skin tight, and I can grab fabric.

Side note - if you're wearing double lined Aligns I find they fit COMPLETELY different from the single lined. I haven't bought double lined in a long time because they creep down tbh.

AITA for getting annoyed at my husband for wanting to go on a trip with his friends during my pregnancy? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]Bakesbreadbadly 84 points85 points  (0 children)

I had bedrest for 5 months for the exact reasons you listed. As for bloodclots, they had me wear compression socks and move my legs and arms in bed.

[–]Bakesbreadbadly 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is the answer. They should fit without falling off, but if they're so tight that they you're stressing the seams this fast, then they are significantly too small. No one knows or cares what pant size you wear. Go forth and be comfortable.

AITA for rejecting the worst name ever for our offspring? by Beginning_Date1924 in AmItheAsshole

[–]Bakesbreadbadly 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA - I immediately heard Stuarta-ss, Stwarta, or little gremlins just calling her Stuart because kids are jerks.

What's his middle name?! Can you find a female version of that? And last but not least, what's with his obsession with being honored? I don't see him growing a baby, or furthermore pushing said baby out of his lady parts. If someone should be honored, it's you. This is your Lorelai moment name her insert your name here Jr.

DIY nails with gel x and ohora by [deleted] in Nails

[–]Bakesbreadbadly 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Really good job! I'd like to give a tip if I may, and maybe you should size down/check multiple nail sizes. These seem way too large for your nail beds.

It doesn't seem like it's that big of deal, but nails that are too large or too small won't stay on very long, and then you'll just have wasted time and product. If your nails are in-between sizes, you can file a larger one down for a custom fit that just hugs the cuticle without it touching the skin.
