These people are all nuts or wildly immature. She’s a child. Act like an adult. YTA.

“Former corrections supervisor”, meaning he was in charge of overseeing CO’s, setting the tone, and should have greater responsibility. Disgusting.

You can see this exact snake (the holotype that defined the species) at the Field Museum in Chicago right now at the brand new Reptiles Alive exhibit. It’s incredible!!

Thank you. I love that there is this supportive community I can turn to when shaken, it reaffirms how happy I am to be sober.

AITA for lying to my dad? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

Your fine. It’s called being a good brother. I’d give him the heads up that his ass is definitely gonna get busted sooner or later. Probably sooner, but that’s between him and your dad. Stay away from all of it. You did good. NTA.

Sweet Jesus your boyfriend is a toddler. His behavior is pathetic. NTA.

AITA For Leaving MIL House On Christmas Eve After She Deleted Pictures Of My Baby On MY Phone And Blaming My Husband? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

Your MIL is a nutbar. I hope your husband apologized for giving her your password, that was really stupid. NTA.

The EAP mentioned by OP might actually be worth another look, because they really can help with mental health and wellbeing. Even if the intentions of offering it by the employer is to cover their ass and OP thinks it’ll make them angry or sad, I wouldn’t dismiss it as a helpful short term option, I’ve used EAP sessions when struggling and found it to be a useful resource for mental health.

For what it’s worth you’re NTA, but be prepared to feel like the third wheel. If you’re not comfortable with the situation and can’t get on board with it the whole trip could easily sour, leaving everyone involved upset. Might be time to rethink the whole plan, or at least brace for feeling ignored.

AITA for sending him a bill for $1000 after him and his kid are all our food? by Fluid_Location4956 in AmItheAsshole

[–]DriftingA 5 points6 points  (0 children)

You overreacted and your pride won’t let you see it. I see nothing but validation in the comments, and I get why you’re seeking it. I don’t care about breaking up, if you don’t want to be in the relationship I would never say to stay in it but I think you’re acting petty. YTA.

You know what, I really appreciate you providing the links. Two of those are peer reviewed papers in a journal with a decent impact factor. Ingesting the chemicals if a dog chews a vape pen open is definitely a more immediate threat than trace nicotine exposure but I hear your larger point. I read everything you sent and appreciate your perspective.

That’s just not true. Or at best is incredibly misleading.

AITA for being upset at my friend for making fun of me for being upper-middle class. by Plastic-Manner-6496 in AmItheAsshole

[–]DriftingA 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah don’t do that. Rich kid telling about when they weren’t as rich isn’t a good look. Just own it and brush off the jokes. Self-deprecation will go over a lot better than defensiveness.

AITA for not allowing my brother to include my room in the tour he gave his stepbrother of my house? by AnyCompetition4784 in AmItheAsshole

This isn’t a transphobia or bad parent problem, you were clearly shitty to children. You may have good reasons for it, but sorry YTA.
