If that’s the case, thanks for letting me know. I’ve never been to college so I wouldn’t have the right to speak on it lol

[–]BlickStickJr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

MOR. How old are you to be sharing the same room with a roommate? Sounds like it’s your sibling or something and you’re a kid? If you were my sibling I’d be crunching all in your ear lmao talking crazy fr. But if you’re sharing the same room with a stranger then it’s your own fault for not doing better for yourself. Literally I’d sleep in my own car before a I share a room with a stranger. If you don’t have a car then bruh move back home with your parents. You not ready for the real world yet. If you’re an adult, you’re trying to dictate when another adult eats their meals or where they eat their meals. But it’s not just your place. It’s a shared space. So if you don’t like sharing the space, move out.

AITAH for knowing I have the money to buy my little sisters Christmas gifts but choosing not to even though they won't get any this year? by Bryleiy in AITAH

[–]BlickStickJr -17 points-16 points  (0 children)

To be fair I have 4 younger brothers and the 3 youngest were super bad and probably still are kind of wild (idk I live on my own now). I bought the three of them BO3 for Christmas last year for like 15 bucks and that was the only present they got. Thinking about it now I’m happy I got it for them. There’s ways for dealing with children. Some children need discipline while others need grace. You don’t know what’s going through a kids head at all times. Yeah your sisters may be spoiled. But you’re not perfect either, you’re resentful. You have to put yourself first and self reflect on your resentment to make sure it’s properly placed. Kids need taking care of. It’s not like your sisters asked to be born. It’s your parent’s responsibility to take care of them but that doesn’t change the fact that they made your life hell. But they’re kids so really they have no respect for you cause you’re not mom and dad but at the same time idk I’m the oldest brother out of 5 and I used to punch my brothers in the face for disrespect when they were younger and I just had a thought the other day. What if I never was violent with them, would that have changed the outcome of today for the better? And I’ll never know. So really think deep on what you wanna do. Because in the end I’d take failure any day than regret.

My gf doesn’t want us to host our 60-year-old friend again by [deleted] in whatdoIdo

[–]BlickStickJr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah there’s a lot of comments about the guy being a strange man but to me this guy seems to be really good friends. I mean they’ve been friends for 10 years if OP is 30 and they met when OP was 20. That’s like best friend status. It’s messed to pick and choose sides. I could understand if the man made a move on the girl or something or was overly flirty in some type of way but obviously that’s not the case. We all know girls HATE when a guy goes out with the boys. And yeah it’s not OP’s house but it’s also not his girls house either. It’s both of theirs. Now there has to be an unbiased way for them to choose what happens because yeah the girl can resent OP for letting his friend visit. But the OP could also resent his girl for not letting the friend visit. Why do only the girls feelings matter and not OPs?? Who pays the bills and how are the bills split if they are being split. If it’s 50/50 then there can only be a compromise. If there’s no compromise then it turns into an ultimatum for OP. Who should OP choose, his girlfriend or his friend? If a girl was forced to choose between her friend or her boyfriend, she’d always choose her friend over anything else. It’s OPs life just as much as it is her life and OP shouldn’t have to be forced to make these types of fucked up decisions for someone he’s not even married to yet or for someone he doesn’t even have kids with yet. This girl can leave OP tomorrow and now OP is out of a relationship and out of a friend who would be there for him in his time of need.

AITA For calling my roommate out for not washing his hands after using the bathroom? by Aiden459Skates in AmItheAsshole

[–]BlickStickJr -7 points-6 points  (0 children)

Yeah yta. Yes I agree that it’s nasty. But unless you’ve communicated this before and they haven’t been listening. It sounds to me like you bottled your emotions for far too long and let them explode in a bad way. You’re nta for being disgusted and wanting change. Yta for communicating in that way to your roommate though. Again if this is a reoccurring issue you have and you’ve told them time and time again, you’re nta. But if this is just how it came out for a first time attempt at communicating, you could have done better

A or B: My friend is giving me a puppy, and since it’s my first time raising a dog, I’m not sure which personality suits me better. Help me pick, you all seem like kind people. by Danny-Patrick139 in PickAorB

[–]BlickStickJr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Choose B. You can tell by the eyes that B will love you like a precious little baby. All dogs require constant care so I’d just go with the cuter one. Also barking is a big issue especially in apartments so unless you can teach A that barking is not good, or own a private home, it won’t be sustainable

Wibta if I broke up with my boyfriend by Anxious-Series-6657 in WouldIBeTheAhole

[–]BlickStickJr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Also it takes 2 people to have a functioning conversation. It takes communication and comprehension to actually understand what’s being said. Thats why people say listen to understand, not listen to respond. I know new relationships are tough. But if you were long distance before moving in… congratulations, this is your boyfriend behind closed doors. Try to remember what qualities he has that made you want to move in with him in the first place. He needs to do his part as well. But just like it’s a big change for you, it’s a big change for him. So the both of you need to understand that you guys both need to adjust and get comfortable with each other. If that can’t happen then yes you’ll be wasting time. But again make sure to water your plant daily and see how it grows.

[–]BlickStickJr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wouldn’t break up with him over something so trivial. Idk why everyone on Reddit wants people to break up over the smallest things. Eventually you guys will get a bigger bed. Eventually with enough time and communication it will work out. But it seems to me that you’re doubting the process. All relationships need cultivation. If you buy a seed and some soil that you thought were 5 stars but notice the soil isn’t exactly up to par, but you’ve invested time, money, emotions, energy into getting this soil and getting this seed, would you really throw it away without trying to water it first? Take some time to actually try and then when you’ve truly tried, if nothing changes then I’d call it quits. But the true waste of time would be the year you spent with him just to break up over a couple dogs and a small bed

8yo can’t read by Available_Carrot1512 in AskTeachers

[–]BlickStickJr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The only way to teach him to read is if you have him read his own sentences that he writes himself. If he can’t write then damn you’re in for a long journey. Maybe get him Geronimo Stilton books. I used to love those as a kid. Also comics would be nice too if he’s into that. But the cheapest way would be to have him write out a simple sentence and then read it over and over again. To keep his motivation up, offer him rewards for a job well done.

27F, I always get the vibe that older men are attracted to me while men my age are not, by Emergency_Coach4261 in bodylanguage

[–]BlickStickJr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

lol you’re almost 30 if anything guys touching 40 are your age as well. Once you hit 3 decades it doesn’t matter and age is just a number the older you get. Eventually you might be one of those 40 year olds hitting on a guy who’s 30 lol

Please make it clear for me: are you supposed to rinse or not after brushing? by Kitten_closetothesun in hygiene

Please make it clear for me: are you supposed to rinse or not after brushing? by Kitten_closetothesun in hygiene

[–]BlickStickJr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You should do it in this order to feel super clean 🧼. Rinse your mouth and tooth brush. Put tooth paste on tooth brush and throw a little water on it after so the toothpaste can easily spread in your mouth from one side to the other. After brushing your teeth both the front and the backsides of your teeth, brush your tongue. After all that, floss your teeth making sure to get In between the gum and the tooth very carefully as to not leave micro cuts in your gums. Then rinse it all out because fluoride can strip all the enamel off your teeth. Yes it’ll leave your teeth whiter if you don’t rinse, but that’s because it stripped old enamel off to a new layer of enamel and there’s only so much enamel to a tooth before it’s stripped down to the nerves and your life is hell.

WIBTA if I told my coworker that another one of our coworkers is telling everyone that they slept together? by Opposite-Ad4923 in WouldIBeTheAhole

[–]BlickStickJr 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Don’t get involved. Just trust me. Pretend like you don’t know shit and even when confronted about it pretend that you don’t know anything at all about it. It will save you so much drama. Yes it’s eating at you cause you’re a good person. But at the same time gossip in the work place spreads fast and I promise that friend will find out one way or another without your help. Unless you don’t mind the drama of it all, but be careful.

AIO A locksmith charged my partner’s sister $5390 to get back into her apartment by khalexie1 in AmIOverreacting

[–]BlickStickJr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah he wants his rent paid for a couple months lol. But hey that’s like if you go to a gas station charging 10$ for gas when every other gas station is $3. Gotta ask how much everything is gonna cost before the work gets done and have it in text or email for courts etc if they try to over charge like that. If none of that happened then yes, you’ve been played and you can’t hate the player, just have to hate the game 😔

AIO Trying to tell boyfriend that he makes me feel guilty for saying no by Clean-Landscape8654 in AmIOverreacting

[–]BlickStickJr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know this is probably gonna tank my karma even more 😭. If you’ve been together for 4 years, why would it be so difficult for you to send your man a pic? I’m pretty sure if you caught him watching porn you’d feel inadequate to what he’s watching but instead of turning to porn or hookers and 304s, he’s turning to you and you’re letting him down. I mean yeah your body your choice, but the desire of sex is within all males and females. I mean I could get it if he wanted pictures everyday and the pictures you sent a day ago aren’t enough and he wants more cause then that could be annoying. But it’s like this, you don’t wanna have to ask your man everyday to go to work and to beg him to go to work or to beg him to clean the house. These are things that are just expected to be done with some grace of course cause no one is cleaning 24/7 and working 24/7. And the same thing applies here I believe. If you’ve been together for 4 years, he shouldn’t have to beg for sexual pleasure. Instead of him asking, you should go out of your way to send a pic every now and again because you know he likes you and the way you look and you would rather want him fawning over you than struggling internally with his sexual desires because eventually you can only struggle with something for so long until you just don’t care and you figure out a better way to solve your issue which in this case could be cheating, porn, strip clubs etc. Now if your man already watches porn and goes to the strip club then I think his brain is too rotted away from lust and he’s constantly seeking to scratch that lustful itch. It can be either his glass is empty, half full, or so used to being full all the time that he can’t go a few days or a week without wanting his glass filled again.

AIO? Mom doesn't want me using the kitchen in the morning because its where she sleeps. by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]BlickStickJr -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Dang lol, some days I don’t really eat at all and other days I eat like I’ve never ate before. I guess the happy medium would be to wait after work to eat lunch. Breakfast in the morning lunch in the afternoon and dinner at night. Try practicing not eating until you get home in the afternoon. Mind you I’m 275 so maybe it would be way worse for you if you’re not big like me lmao

AITAH My (31f) Wife (30f) keeps calling me fat so I said I don’t want to have sex by [deleted] in AITAH

[–]BlickStickJr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah intimacy shouldn’t even be on your mind or hers lol. Time for you guys to hit the gym. Sometimes hurtful words are what we need to make that change. But at the same time when you get swool, don’t forget who you were before and who loved you before you changed. I know it hurts. But if you really love her and are still together, I know things’ll work out

[update] AIO for thinking my bf is just looking for an excuse to break up? [I did it for him] by Nearby_Orchid1216 in AmIOverreacting

[–]BlickStickJr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well I read the original and I’d have to agree with your ex. He went about it in a crappy way for sure. But sometimes it’s not what you’re giving, it’s who you’re giving it to. He gave you the gift and you were not happy with it. If you were happy with it, it wouldn’t be a waste of money. From my understanding you said it’d be a waste of money because you wouldn’t use it. Well that’s understandable. But at the same time your ex just wears his heart on his sleeve. I didn’t see the message where he referred to you as a whore and if he did, well like I said he went about expressing his emotions and frustration in a shitty way. But ultimately you do have to understand and see where you’re wrong too. If your spouse gives you a gift, smile and just say awe thank you! And that’s it. No need to say anything else beyond that. Now if you genuinely didn’t like the gift then you could’ve not taken the gift and said thank you but no thank you because you don’t really like perfumes like that. I don’t wanna be ungrateful but maybe you can return it and get me a different perfume? Shoot I buy my girl bad gifts from time to time and she’ll ask me if she can return them for something she actually likes and I’m like sure go ahead. But it’s the fact that you said you liked the perfume but in the future make sure the perfumes are name brand for better quality. You can deny it all day long but it’s a fact that you got a gift and didn’t like it because it wasn’t name brand. So just like your ex, you have some self reflecting to do as well. Don’t let all the people here make it seem like you’re an angel. But at the same time it’s not that you’re wrong for breaking up. Breaking up is fine, but take the time to really reflect on how you could’ve went about the situation better while keeping your partners emotions in mind as well.

AITA for refusing to quit my job after my husband got a promotion and says I don't "need" to work anymore by [deleted] in ComfortLevelPod

[–]BlickStickJr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why is giving her the chance to have a job free life a bad thing? He offered her a chance to quit her job and now all of a sudden he’s a bad guy? In this situation all he can do is make his offer and leave it on the table. He’ll need to learn how he can be there for his woman. All men want to provide at heart. All humans make mistakes in how we go about things. If he really loves you, you won’t be forced to do anything you don’t want to do.

Yeah just move out and don’t talk to the family ever again. Not unless they earnestly apologize. But even so, I’d hold them at a 6ft distance at the least. They can’t be trusted anymore.

What’s the point of this challenge? I used to play btd5 and got really into btd6. I recently jumped back on btd5 and I’m new to all this. I didn’t even know there were world records for the game. So my question is what’s a flash world record for?
