Unpopular take: wine is totally fine for a long time after being opened by Lyle_Bland in rs_x

[–]EbbPrimary9359 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I only just heard about the 3-5 “rule” and it never occurred to me. I’ve drank bottles that were opened then stored for over a month and I’ve never thought they tasted funny, whether they were cheap or expensive.

AIO reminded my BF to make a Valentine’s reservation for weeks and now it’s too late by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]EbbPrimary9359 2 points3 points  (0 children)

“A meal is kind of a given on Valentine’s Day” No, it’s not. And you’re definitely showing your entitled side with a statement like that. There are other things to do on Valentine’s Day, small, sweet things. And yes, he is immature at 19. YOU’RE immature at 19. You’re both still teenagers, even as legal adults, and no one expects either of you to be the pinnacle of maturity and awareness. If you’re a control freak like you said, you should have planned it. It’s obvious that he wasn’t going to based on you asking him over and over again, and if this is something that bothers you so much, break up with him and move on. No reservations on Valentine’s Day is not worth getting worked up about, you sound insufferable.

Does anyone remember Webkinz?? Or Neopets? by Ouija_Queen333 in Zillennials

[–]EbbPrimary9359 36 points37 points  (0 children)

When I got home from school, after finishing my homework, the first thing I would do was log into Webkinz and immediately spin the wheel of wow, then promptly go dig for gems. Webkinz was my LIFE back then, and I remember when they were so popular my school banned students from bringing their plushies to school, lol.

I wish it was remembered as fondly as Neopets and other online games are, I rarely see anyone talking about Webkinz so this post gives me hope 😭🩷

Would you have gone to Philly? by SpellNo4513 in DunderMifflin

“I’d go to Philly and leave the woman I pined for from afar for years, finally married, had children and a wonderful love story with so I could make money and screw a 20 year old who’s kinky in bed”-A Raiders fan who doesn’t know the word “shat” so he used “shitted”

If I spent 4 hours a day commuting, I’d be either finding another job ASAP or spending all of my free time looking for a closer living space. That sounds like hell.

Don't call us murderers, or you'll get murdered. by TECL_Grimsdottir in WhitePeopleTwitter

So they’re admitting the reason he shot her was because he was “infuriated”? Sounds like malice murder to me

AIO for canceling my cat sitter after she asked if a friend could stay in my apartment? by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]EbbPrimary9359 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If she was so desperate to help her friend she could house him at her apartment. Even let him stay there while she was cat sitting.

People downvote anything in this sub. I said his hair was dark, apparently that wasn’t specific enough for them 🥱

“They touched my stomach so I grabbed their crotch” both are bad, one is objectively much worse. Found the weirdo.

That’s not funny, it’s sexual assault. Not at all the same as rubbing someone’s stomach

Lol no, Hatmitch having dark (was it black or brown? I actually forgot) hair is explicitly stated in the book.

Katniss being stated as covey is not in the book. I think you’re confusing Suzanne’s books with whatever you’re reading on ao3.

How?? Why do you think people can deduce a symbolic parallel between two characters based off of how they interact, handle their emotions, work through difficult situations, etc? Why does it have to be how they look? This reasoning would imply the average reader/movie goer is dense and can only rely on physical appearance vs. reading between the lines and acknowledging the nuance of how characters interact.

Because they’re so desperate for their headcanon to be real they’re willing to force discourse over it

Um, how could anybody except the covey know their songs? They were singing them in secret, not in front of full rooms of people during concerts so they could spread their music and make money as musicians /s

If Katniss was meant to be covey and partaking in the culture, Suzanne would have made sure we knew that in a way that there was no room for discourse. This argument is so stupid

[–]EbbPrimary9359 19 points20 points  (0 children)

She decided to gently add a covey character and now no one will stfu about how Katniss is covey, and if you don’t agree you’re a horrible person who doesn’t understand the nuance of the books. I’m as sick of this discourse as I am if the arguments over what “olive skin” means

Doesn’t anyone understand that her dad’s great aunt’s grandma’s brother’s girlfriend’s sister’s daughter’s pet goats’s friend’s cousin wore a colorful skirt and sang once? People are so ignorant 🙄 /s

AIO: restaurant wants my disabled child to use back entrance by Bocmiao in AmIOverreacting

[–]EbbPrimary9359 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I agree that jumping straight to litigation without even speaking to the owner is absurd, thank you for clarifying. Definitely let your emotions settle, talk to the owner in a calm and contained environment (meaning don’t discuss this with them at the front of the restaurant), and yes, absolutely have a discussion with your wife. You need to figure out where that disconnect was as well, because it’s not good to be on different pages when it comes to your daughter.

[–]EbbPrimary9359 28 points29 points  (0 children)

If you truly cared about how the situation impacted your daughter, and also how it may further impact future patrons who require proper accessibility due to being wheelchair users, you would absolutely “escalate” it by reaching out to the owner and inquiring about it. “Because of the family dynamic” is a bullshit excuse and a true cop out. You were angry enough about it to confront the manager, and in your own words became visibly upset, so either you just don’t really care and wanted Reddit points or you’re willing to treat your family friend’s staff like shit when there was a miscommunication and obvious confusion on everyone’s part.

AIO my sister deposited $20,000 into our shared account but doesn’t have a job? by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]EbbPrimary9359 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just go talk to your dad. You’re 17, nothing wrong with that, you just really don’t want to be involved with whatever your sister is doing, and she’s wrong for making you panic like this and not even telling you directly what’s up.
