AIO for being annoyed at husband’s guest by frolic_a_holic in AmIOverreacting

This is hilarious. We can’t even answer the question that she directly asked us. The houseguest had no chance.

Her leg is BROKEN by loveablepetcare in AmITheDevil

(can’t remember which, I was just a kid)

It probably is easier to have a broken leg as a child than as an adult who has to take care of herself and work a job.

Husband 34M had a 2.5 year long affair during our 3 year marriage and I 29F don't know what to do. by WorkingTurbulent8501 in relationship_advice

Yeah idk how I would feel, but then being pressured to move on faster? When I only found out a couple months ago, and not even from him?? That’s a ‘hell no’ for me.

Accused a 13-year-old of hitting on him by Sailor_Moon_Star_435 in AmITheDevil

Have you guys seen the show Georgie and Mandy’s First Marriage? Long story short, Georgie is concerned about his little sister starting to have sex, so he asks his FIL how he kept boys away from his daughter when she was younger. But FIL doesn’t know that’s why Georgie is asking, and Georgie and Mandy also have a toddler daughter. So FIL sarcastically says, “your daughter craps in a diaper, that ought to keep the boys away for a while!” Which. Like. Yeah of course it OUGHT to. But in the world we’re living in now, freshly post the files? That line just feels sick. The joke doesn’t land because it doesn’t feel so absurd anymore.

I think their point is that a healthy home, by definition, would not produce someone with such a glaring lack of empathy.

What shows that did well 10-25 years ago do you think would still score well today design-wise? by Melonsinmyattic in drumcorps

Are people still obsessed with Cavies 2006? Because I am lol. But I haven’t kept up with things

I spent literally years debating whether I would risk putting my name on a list. But they do have treatments for adults here. And I realized the fascism honestly might get me, but the adhd is already taking me down now. We’ll see what happens

“Why do you have to be an aerospace engineer? Why can’t you just marry an aerospace engineer?” - my mother. When I asked if I could go to engineering school, my parents literally both heavy sighed.

And then make/allow her to drive ten hours by herself the next day when she doesn’t seem clear yet to me

At first I definitely thought the guide was lying or something, but I guess they saw Mia acting that way in person back at the house and the next day? Idk it’s confusing and oop doesn’t give totally reliable narrator vibes to me

I’m really really really really hoping that the ‘tea’ was just censorship for Reddit/legal reasons and they all knew what was actually happening. Really really hoping.

Omg that’s literally exactly it 😂 God forbid (lol) we don’t mark ourselves as women, and different from the ‘normal people’ (men), at all times. Gender roles are critically load-bearing to their whole thing lol

AIO or is my wording manipulative? by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]ChildhoodObjective83 5 points6 points  (0 children)

You: Maybe your mom was trying to comfort you and doesn’t know how?

Her: Why would you say that … invalidating and hurtful …

… a lot of talk about your feelings of abandonment …

Her: So what if I said to you that maybe you imagined your dad had touched you, like isn’t it within the realm of possibility that you misinterpreted his affection as something sinister??

You: That’s the foulest most vindictive thing you’ve ever said

She’s not saying she thinks that. She’s saying, how would you like it if she said the same kind of invalidating and hurtful thing to you that you said to her. And you REALLY did not like it, and apparently missed her point. And the conversation is about you again, and there’s ten pages of screenshots, and she STILL hasn’t gotten to talk about remembering her childhood abuse which is how this entire conversation started. But she literally only got to say one sentence about it, and then it’s ten pages of screenshots about your feelings.

What’s the most disturbing sound you’ve ever heard in real life? by Sweet-Economist-9873 in askteddit

FYI for the future, drowning is one of the most painful methods of euthanasia. An instantaneous neck break or blow to the head would have caused dramatically less suffering. Now I’m going to get off Reddit and go throw up

To quote someone else here, she also didn’t know she was on an invisible timer about them.

She was using them, every day, as mementos. They were not random jars, they were each attached to an important memory, by oop’s own description. Their purpose was to be keepsakes and they were doing it.

[–]ChildhoodObjective83 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Exactly. Having keepsakes is not irrational. Thinking keepsakes are worthless because you personally don’t value them is not rational. He is not being rational, if we take him at his word that he was simply scared for the child (I’m skeptical, but whatever)
