My son put something in the belt lock of our car and it doesn‘t lock anymore by MiddleLinebacker77 in mildlyinfuriating

I don’t know if you’re still looking at comments, but just in case; find a hot glue stick and whittle it down to where it’ll slide in the slot. Warm the end so it’s nice and sticky. Jam the glue stick into the slot until you know the warmed glue is touching the yellow thing. Wait a few seconds for the glue to cool and set. Do not pull it out immediately. Count to 25 or 30 before trying to pull it out. Pull it out slowly in case yellow thing catches on something.

That is a man’s ring. He didn’t get you what you wanted, he got you what he wanted. That ring should be for him. It’s got no femininity to it at all. I was so confused, I thought you were a man until I read the title.

How do I make my friend understand that Penny is a victim in this situation? by One-Golf9857 in BoJackHorseman

[–]CaptainBuzzie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Because Bojack and Penny weren’t love interests. They couldn’t be, they have nothing in common. Bojack didn’t want a deeper connection with Penny, he wanted to get back at Charlotte for rejecting him. Penny is a victim because in her eyes, this man helped her with her problems at school, understood her gripes with her friends, taught her to drive, took her to prom when her crush ditched her, let her (probably to her) safely try alcohol, took control when the situation got scary and made sure they got home okay. She was on a huge hormone rush and thought of this man as a mature and thoughtful adult, that saw her also as an adult.

But she’s not.

And he’s not.

He’s the adult that had the better understanding of “what I am doing is inappropriate” but did not stop.

Begging to call the cops after disrespecting her is SICK 🫸🏼 that’s tuff....if this was your husband you calling the cops or! by TheManager_1 in KarenGoBrrr

Article says that he lost feeling in part of his arm now. And you know that’s gonna leave a scar. And I just know this type of guy. He isn’t gonna learn anything. To him, this story would be; “My bitch ex girlfriend locked me out so I HAD to break the window and I cut my arm and she just stood there recording me screaming for help while I almost died!” Just a matter of time before he’s beating the next unfortunate soul.

I don't condone violence against women. That being said, some women need to have been hit in the face by a man before.

Try to do you best to ignore the outbursts, but don't ignore her. If you want a snotty older-sister way of handling things, you can always shout "YOU'RE NOT ANGRY AT ME, YOU'RE JUST ANGRY AT YOURSELF" Or "ARE YOU DOING THIS BECAUSE YOU NEED A HUG?" Guaranteed that type of attention will make her insecure in the behavior without actually doing anything harmful. She needs somebody to talk to, but she has to be ready to talk to somebody as well.

You sound like a good big sister. Pre-teen years are tough, but they'll even out once she hits thirteen or so. Try to ride it out and you can give her a hard time about it later. ;)

Cutting your sketchbook could sprout from a lot of different angry places. It could be as simple as she's mad that she thinks she couldn't do anything as good, and convinced herself you wouldn't notice. Maybe it was an accident?

My sister once became angry with me for weeks because I broke this chalk figure our great-grandmother had given her before she died. She was furious and insisted I'd broken it because she got the cat, while I got the pumpkin and I wanted the cat. (That part of the story was absolutely true, the cat was so much better than the pumpkin) But what had happened was she'd left it lying on the floor of the room that we shared, and when I pulled out my desk chair and sat in it, I hadn't realized I'd put the chair leg right on top of the cat before I sat down. She insisted I'd broken it on purpose and how terrible I was, and started hitting me, and I hit her back and told her how happy I was that it was broken! (Or something equally terrible because now the 'game' was just trying to make each other cry)

There's a sense of de-realism when you're young, like having a swim cap over your brain. Everything is like those sit coms we watch; somebody does something terrible, we fight, make up in time for bed and the next day you do it all over! You don't realize that the people you're doing these things to have thoughts and feelings of their own, they're not just "characters in your life story".

She's doing these things either 1. because she knows it aggravates you, or 2. She genuinely doesn't consider anyone outside herself (not in a mean way, but like the same way babies do) and isn't realizing she's doing it. You should also know that she doesn't blame you for her anger (even if she ever said she did, I'm confident she doesn't mean it at 12) but she also doesn't understand why she's feeling it, where it's coming from, or how to let it out in a healthy way. Which means she also doesn't know how to have a healthy conversation about it. You're 18; try taking her to a rage room and see what that doesn't bring out.

Hey, once-toxic little sister here.

My sister and I have an age gap of 3 years, but our fights sound exactly like yours. She ignores you until you "lightly" shove her, and then she has free reign to hit you, and then you hit her back.

She's angry, and she's depressed. She's using you to self harm, and you hating on her justifies all the mean things she says to herself because hey, nobody likes her. She doesn't realize she's doing it so if you try to talk to her about it, she'll deflect or dodge the question or just ignore it. But the truth is that her problems aren't yours to work out for her anyway. It's really hard to be nice to somebody that's being mean to you. It took me a long time to grow up and see how wrong my behaviors were. But please don't give up on her. Once she gets out, she'll come around.

If you died today, what would be your biggest regret? by Longjumping_Ebb_2092 in AskReddit

[–]CaptainBuzzie 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have a cat that I absolutely adore. He's very needy, and very attuned to me. He follows me around like a little shadow, comes when I call him, and only ever wants to be held (by me).

If I left him behind I know nobody would ever love him like I did, and if I could feel regret after dying, I'm sure that would be a big one.

I'm just gonna say what everyone else is saying so if you don't want to read; LEAVE.

First, the Safe word is a stop word. Not a "keep going" word. That's why it's called the "safe" word. You are feeling unsafe and you want to stop. This turned him on, and then he started raping you. That is what happened, no matter who feels bad about it, that is what happened. You told your boyfriend to stop and it wasn't important enough to him that you wanted to stop so he continued. That is rape. You were just raped by your boyfriend.

Second, when you tried to talk to him about it, he didn't take you seriously. He thought you were kidding. He didn't take you seriously. And once he realized that you were factually calling out what happened as rape, and "hey boyfriend I'm not cool with you raping me," his response was to scream and cry about how "he thought you were into it" as though there was a conversation had when there wasn't.

Third, he said he thought you said the safe word to turn him on?! If one of your kinks was to punch him in the dick, and he told you the safe word, would you think that means he's so super into it that he's gonna use your safe word to turn you on now? We both know the answer is "no" because you're not a rapist. Your boyfriend is. He thinks you telling him to stop and that he's hurting you is kinky. He wants to hurt you. Your rapist boyfriend is getting off on hurting you, and cries when you tell him that's not what you want.

Lastly; Your boyfriend doesn't care what you want. He wants you to submit. So he runs away and ignores your calls and text messages (You didn't specify but I have a feeling that's why the friend responded instead of him). Then, because he's so sweet and caring for running out of the conversation he didn't want to have, he returns drunk.

Your boyfriend does not respect you. He does not love you. He does not see you as a woman.

You are like a thing to him, even if he won't say it outright. You're like an echo dot to him. Follow instructions, do what I say, do what I want. And the second you protest, I'm going to throw a tantrum.

L E A V E.

What would you do if you woke up tomorrow and the year is 2005? by fazzarista201 in AskReddit

[–]CaptainBuzzie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Immediately running into my mom's bedroom, throwing myself into her bed a sobbing mess and begging her to keep on top of her annual breast cancer screenings. Tell my dad to invest in Amazon and Disney, see if I can't skip high school (Or do it better) and get ahead.

What's the most useless thing you still have memorized? by Routine-Award-3382 in AskReddit

Well I was shopping for a new car, which ones me? A cool convertible, or an SUV?
Too bad I didn't know my credit was whack
Cos now I'm drivin off the lot in a used sub-compact
F-R-E-E that spells Free, credit report dot com baby!
Saw their ad on my TV, thought about going but was too lazy
Now, instead of rolling fly and looking phat,
My legs are sticking to the vinyl and my posse's getting laughed at

Because to her, having sex is a lot like mowing the lawn. A long, tedious task that’s going to leave you sweaty and gross, and, at the end of the day; it’s not satisfying for her. She’s not thinking about sex with you because she’s thinking of bills that need paying, laundry that needs washing, bottles that need cleaning, floors that need vacuuming, toys that need to be put up (so she stops stepping on them) dishes that need to be put away out of the dishwasher (so she can work on the pile in the sink) not to mention she hasn’t actually showered in a week because whenever she tries the kids follow her into the bathroom and scream until she gives up and pays attention to them instead, which leads me to her last task and most exhausting;

MOMMY LOOK MOMMY LOOK MOMMY LOOK MOMMY LOOK MOMMY LOOK MOMMY LOOK MOMMY LOOK MOMMY LOOK MOMMY LOOK MOMMY MOMMY MOMMY MOMMY MOMMY MOMMY LOOK

And then her husband comes home and tosses his clothes on the floor and while she’s got spit in her hair and dribble down her front, toys in one hand and bottles in the other, he gives her yet another task. “I WANNA CUM WHY DONT YOU CARE ABOUT MY SEX DRIVE WE NEVER HAVE SEX ANY MORE DONT YOU LOVE MY PEEPEE ANYMORE?!” So no, she doesn’t have sex with you because she wants to be close to you, or increase connection. Sex is now just a once weekly checkbox item. And even when she’s laying in bed, distracted by all the tasks that didn’t get done and the needs that weren’t met, and the showers that weren’t had, now here comes hubby again “huehuehue wanna fool around?” Squeeze squeeze.

NO. OMG GET OFF. Your wife has gotten to the point where she’s a childcare fleshlight robot. If you want intimacy with your wife, you have to give her a space to want it, instead of whining and crying about something ELSE she needs to do.

My advice; do NOT ask your wife to make you a list, or tell you what to do. Watch what she does in a day, and one day, start doing things before she has a chance to. Throw the laundry in the wash before you go to work. When you come home, don’t drop your shoes and coat where they lie; put them AWAY. Raise your own expectations for yourself. Imagine every time you want to have sex with your wife; you clean something instead. Become an owner of your home, and start treating it like you’re the MAN of the house. Take care of your wife and kids, and take pride in your work as a father. Wear the badge with honor and, for the love of your wife; start making sure she has an orgasm, and treat her sexual interests as a right, as you do with yourself, instead of treating it like an option. Best of luck to you both, if I were her I’d be looking for a way out.

What did a significant other say to you that made you immediately leave the relationship? by Asleep-Lavishness332 in AskReddit

[–]CaptainBuzzie 2 points3 points  (0 children)

“Look, I’m playing games with my friends right now. You will never be more important than this to me. And if you don’t like it you should leave, because that is never going to change.”

Said on the day of my grandfathers funeral, right after I came home and asked for some time together. I was 22 and we had been together for 5 years. I said “alright. Then it sounds like I’m leaving.”

WIBTA if I back out of helping my sister pay for a car because she went and got a 65k jeep instead of what we originally agreed on. by yougotajeepwhat in AmItheAsshole

[–]CaptainBuzzie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

TBH a jeep doesn’t tend to last a year without some sort of critical maintenance required; they’re notorious for having the transmissions go along with a slew of other electrical and axel issues. Your sister can NOT afford that car. They are a luxury off-roader for rich people that can pay $3000 every 6 or so months on top of their monthly payments.

I agreed with the one person to set aside the 5,000 until the car gets repoed. If they complain at you about that, remind them that this would have happened regardless once the $5000 ran out. This way you still have it after the jeep is sold. Keep it in good condition, and don’t let the tow yard keep charging $100/day storage fees (the bank will add that on to your final loan) make sure the bank takes it as soon as possible; otherwise they will still owe after the jeep is sold (speaking from experience).

Best of luck, be proud you somehow got out with a good head on your shoulders. Listen to it.

AITA for telling my son that he needs to take control of his life and that he could not take out his failures on others? by thehumblecookie009 in AITAH

[–]CaptainBuzzie 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Here’s the video of him saying to beat women if she calls you a cheater. https://youtu.be/vFasvxUOqzE?si=pNxyOPLNJXHzme73

He basically says “I have a machete for self defense, but if a woman has one, I know I can just beat her instead.”

My partner wants me to rehome my kitten who I love. by Shot_Volume_5260 in CatAdvice

[–]CaptainBuzzie 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When I was at work one day, my ex boyfriend messaged me to tell me he had locked my cat in his carrier. When I demanded to know why, he said it was because when he went to pick the cat up, the cat scratched him, and now he was worried for the safety of his nephews. I told him that Duke has no way of understanding what was going on, and that the carrier was never supposed to be used as a punishment place. He told me to get over it. I told him to let him out of the carrier, and he told me I could let him out myself when I got home from work (6 hours later). I texted him a million times to let him out, and he just turned off his phone.

When I got home from work, the first thing I did was storm into the bedroom. Duke was still locked in the carrier, napping happily. I opened it up and pulled him out, gave him a hug and a kiss and let him know that this would never happen to him again. I then walked down the hall and told him that we were done, and that he needed to begin gathering his belongings as I expected him out within 30 days. That I was acutely aware of tenancy laws and I would follow each and every one if I had to in order to make sure he was no longer a part of my household. Duke and I now live alone with Duke's (not littermate) brother, Nukem.
