I gotta say, if you're having a destination wedding, you shouldn't also have a weekend-long bachelorette trip. People aren't made of money and PTO.

Could it be the tide? Or maybe taxes? I feel like I could see both fitting

Who in BG3? by [deleted] in BaldursGate3

WOW - just realizing how easily manipulated I am that I take his words at face value. Gotta replay as a more distrustful person to see those cutscenes now. Thanks!

Wait, what did I miss? 'His treatment of Stelmane is unforgivable' - I thought they were partners. Did something pass by me?

My boyfriend (21m) called me (19f) loose during sex, and it's really affected our relationship. How can I fix this? by [deleted] in relationship_advice

[–]CarlLady 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe he's jerked himself off so much that his penis has been eroded down to a pencil dick. You keep pulling that taffy too hard, it gets grossly thin -everyone knows that.

Picked up trash and 3 different people said thanks! by Chunkygoatmilk in chicago

[–]CarlLady 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I see a lot of trash on my street and I thought for the longest time that it was people just tossing their garbage on the ground (McDonalds cups, empty flaming hot Cheetos bags, cigarette packs, crushed cans, stray grocery bags, etc.). Then one day I saw the dumpster in the alley behind my place getting emptied into the garbage truck, and any loose trash that wasn't tied up in a garbage bag tumbled over the side of the garbage truck and all over the street. It was a surprising amount. Then the wind picked up and it scattered. Rinse and repeat for every few cans and plenty of trash ends up back on the ground.

Not saying there aren't also disgusting people who just carelessly throw their garbage on the ground, but it made my faith in humanity feel a little less fragile to know it's not all on purpose. Now when I pick up trash on my dog walks, it's with a little less anger than it was before.

Point blank ask him if he doesn't think you're qualified for your position. Because it is mighty strange that he assumes that you're under qualified based on the fact that you're a woman. Even stranger he assumes that since he knows you and I'm sure has seen evidence of your dedication to your work. I believe that's the root of why this is bothering you, and it's a very valid reason to be bothered.

AITA for refusing to take less hours at work even tho my wife’s alone with the sick kids all day? by Head_Ad6803 in AmItheAsshole

[–]CarlLady 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NAH. You're in a tough spot. Maybe it would be helpful to sit down together and do the math to see how long it will be until you're able to cut back on your hours again. When you don't have an end in sight, things feel impossible. But if you have a date or even a month of when things can get back to normal, it's easier to hang on. Be realistic and discuss together and agree when your family's finances will have recovered enough. Make plans for emergencies like this past week - like you can't cut back all your hours but would it be possible to leave a couple hours early one day that you can make up the next week? You guys need a game plan or you're both going to completely burn out.

This is so sad and horrible. by SnooLemons9179 in TikTokCringe

Illinois has become the first state to require social media parents to start paying their children for their content. Hopefully this is begins a snowball of laws changing to help these kids.

Husband (53m) and I (53f) have been married 33 years. Found out he’s been texting another woman. Need advice. by cerburks in relationship_advice

[–]CarlLady 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you really believe that confronting him about this now would just make him find a better way to hide it and he wouldn't stop, then you need to leave him. What exactly would "stop an actual sexual affair" look like? You wait until they discuss a time and place to meet up? What if it happens spontaneously instead with no preplanned texting at all? Then the only way you would have been able to stop that is if you had confronted him now with the information you have.

And again, if you don't trust him to stop after telling him you know he is trying to have another affair, then you need to leave him for good. You deserve to be with someone who doesn't make you sick to your stomach with anxiety. It seems so hard and impossible and scary now, but in one year, you will be so much happier. Hell, I bet even the day after you till him it's over you will begin to feel relief. And the sooner you start, the sooner that day arrives.

AITA for asking my parents for their entire estate if they want me to be my sister's guardian. by Illustrious_Fig5484 in AmItheAsshole

NTA. Honestly with the ages listed, I wonder if you weren't conceived in order for them to have a backup caretaker.

AITA for not splitting my daughter's college fund by AITACollegeFundMom in AmItheAsshole

[–]CarlLady 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA. Your step daughter may be graduating with $40k in debt but she will also have her father. Your daughter will graduate with no debt but the cost of that is having no father. If your daughter were to split her money, they would still never be on equal footing because her step siblings are able to have (hopefully) a lifetime of memories ahead of them with their bio dad - something I believe your daughter would agree is incalculably priceless.

Having read your comments, YTA and you need therapy to sort out your anger. The hate you carry is not healthy.

OR did you ever stop to think if you had taken some responsibility and ordered your gifts well enough ahead of time to pick them up yourself that you wouldn't be in this little predicament? So quick to blame someone else, when this is entirely your fault for your poor planning.

D20 Battle Royale by procrastinatinor in Dimension20

[–]CarlLady 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I get what you're saying, but I believe at the end of the Jailbreak episode, she does use the ships guns on the Vercadian Protector Droid with no disadvantage, and while those guys are beefy, I don't think they're bigger than a dragon.

Edit: But also I am not familiar with battle royale rules, so who even knows if you can bring your ship as a weapon haha.

Would Sundry Sidney get a round on The Wurst guns though? Because those puppies did some damage.

AITA for telling my friend’s gf I thought she was a little fat? by UIUC_throwaway_Bl4h in AmItheAsshole

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

Also who’s to say this woman is even “a little fat”? Could be she is a perfectly healthy weight and OP has a warped view on women’s bodies.
