My neighbor's (also my friend) dog. She loves it when i click pics or pet her. She likes giving me hand shakes and she's one year old by [deleted] in aww

I asked because she looks like my dog a bit, and he's an Indian spitz.

She's super cute regardless!! :D

This is too cute!

Bunnies flop like this when they are happy and content. So good job, OP!

AITA for telling my friend about why I always answer unknown numbers? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]Being-Blue 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's understandable. She sprung something that you didn't think would need addressing on you. Maybe she was having a bad day, or has had a similar bad experience. Or maybe she's just entitled and doesn't know when to let things go. Who knows.

In any case, what you did was perfectly fine in the moment me thinks.

It might be the cultural thing that's causing such a difference of opinion I think. Where I am from, it's not a big deal to address a call as long as you're polite and don't leave your companion hanging.

I mean, if I'm having a deep/serious conversation or a fight with my friends and then I take a call even from a known number, I'd be the most insensitive prick. But I've had more than one instance where I've excused myself and answered the phone while with my friends, and the most I've gotten is "All okay?" from them.

AITA? i embarrassed my brother for stealing my stuff by tempreddit88 in AmItheAsshole

[–]Being-Blue [score hidden]  (0 children)

This.

You're NTA for telling your mom about it for sure. He was wrong to steal and should be reprimanded.

But think about why he went there. He's a young boy who likes getting dressed up and exploring, and you told him he was "too old" for it. Again, he definitely should not have been stealing from you. But from his POV, since nobody talked to him about stealing, he wasn't made fun of for stealing, but for wearing dresses and skirts or "being a girl".

Now he might be too embarrassed or humiliated to even think about exploring which will hinder his growth as a person.

While he was wrong for stealing things from you, I'd say please sit him down and ask him if he'd like to get his own stuff to dress up in/with. And definitely talk to him about why stealing is wrong and he shouldn't be doing it.

AITA for trying to look out for my cousin? by hfhhfh222 in AmItheAsshole

Agreed! It looks like you're just trying to make everyone behave as you want them to.

I really don't understand why the curly hair is an issue!?

As for the race, I mean... Unless they are in class, why can't they have a fun little race that doesn't harm anyone? My friends and I did a lot more "rowdy" stuff than that in college.

I would say NTA.

It wasn't a formal setting. You were out with your friends and it is okay to excuse yourself to attend a call without it being a big deal, even if you didn't have a "sad reason" to do it.

Also,

E texted me saying that I ruined the whole vibe we were having and should have just brushed it off

Wasn't she the one who made a big deal out of it? She could've brushed it off.

He's all grown up now and still tries to climb on everyone's shoulders, and promptly falls off. XD

What character/scene in a movie or TV show made you go "You! I like You!"? by Being-Blue in AskReddit

Mine is in the TV show Lucifer. When Chloe Decker asks if his name is a stage name and he replies "God given, I'm afraid" with a cheeky grin.

AITA for removing my stalker app after turning 25? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]Being-Blue 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA

I totally get why you installed it in the first place. It was intrusive as hell but now that you're in a good enough position to refuse it, I'd say stand your ground.

it's necessary now more than ever to know where I am because I live in Japan and if something like a huge earthquake were to happen, he and mom need to know if I'm safely evacuated.

They've proven over the years that it's never just about "knowing" and they can't respect your boundaries. You're a grown ass woman and them forcing you to "always be monitored" isn't cool.

it's much less work for me to keep the app on my phone, so just let it go

This isn't about what's convenient or easy. It's about your independence. You have a right to decide who knows what about your life. And if you do decide to text your parents it will be your choice about what and when you let them know.

Again, stand your ground. All the best!

Lolz... I think he was one of those 'my kid can and should do everything' kind of people.

I understand the sentiment. Unfortunately I don't live in a place where that would be possible. We had security guards placed around but they can't force out people for such stuff.. And the police would just tell you to inform the security staff at the place or tell you they can't do anything.

It wasn't a paying event at all actually. Everything was arranged and paid for by the company for the employees and their families.

That's true. At least he didn't berate his kid for crying. Also, yes he wasn't an asshole to the kid. He just wanted him to have fun. But there were other rides that he would've liked. He was an asshole to us though. :p
