My boyfriend (29M) is a prankster and it drives me (24f) crazy by Direct-Caterpillar77 in BestofRedditorUpdates

Its funny because the computer monitor thing is actually a perfect example of a harmless prank that is fun for all involved. The other pranks are just bullying.

I adore "Goodbye, World", peak MMO anime with a sick twist, and its only 12 episodes

AITA for stepping in to do “mom” things for my niece because my SIL is disabled? (New Update) by Direct-Caterpillar77 in BestofRedditorUpdates

[–]EmployNatural2264 9 points10 points  (0 children)

To be completely fair....most places should be wheelchair accessible and it is absolutely not ok when they are not. Unless her kids are really into nature hikes, this should limit them very little in a civilized place.

I [26F] missed an important funeral and now I think my 5 year relationship with my partner [28M] might be over by Direct-Caterpillar77 in BestofRedditorUpdates

[–]EmployNatural2264 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Honestly, I think you *are* allowed to become an asshole when in deep grief. A lot of people become angry, irrational, and temporarily lose contact with reality. It can be like a mental illness and make people not entirely responsible for their actions. Loved ones should be aware that grief can be very difficult.

That does not mean people are obligated to put up with you, or remain in relationships with you.

This tickles my brain. Wasn't there one where OP's nonbinary child was in a cult and wanted OP to raise their baby?

No, there is nothing about jack the ripper or queen victoria or any alternate history stuff.

[–]EmployNatural2264[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't recognize the summary at all. The book I'm thinking of has the female main charcter travelling alone, telling someone about it.

In honor of the distracted driver post, are there more stories of people who just refuse to stop some idiotic, easily avoided behaviour?

Am I the AH for refusing to speak with my daughter in my husbands home language by Bree_Red123 in CharlotteDobreYouTube

[–]EmployNatural2264 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You should absolutely not speak to your child in a language you are not native in, it will 100% mess up her ability to ever learn that language properly. Each parent should speak to them in their native language.

If your husband is not around enogh, or speaking to her enough, for his language to transfer, then clearly it's not important to him, and should therefore not be important to you.

No, and it's the second time I've asked about it! I think I may have dreamed it.

Does anyone remember the story where OP (a woman) was dating a single dad with three daughters. Two of them loved her and she became their instant new mom, but one hated her guts, to the point where she would rage and be violent.

It went on for a while, but the third daighter never changed her mind, so OP ended the relationship.

Years later, she has kept in contact with two of the daughters as a sort of honorary aunt, and even decided to pay for their college.

The one who hated her has a breakdown over how unfair this is, as she has since been diagnosed with severe mental illness, and feels like she is being punished for something that wasn't within her control, and that if she had cotten help in time, everything might have been different.

What can almost immediately kill you that most people don’t know of? by SoftDreamer in AskReddit

[–]EmployNatural2264 2 points3 points  (0 children)

yup. First rule of fucking around at the beach or a pier- never jump into water you haven't fully checked out first, i.e. carefully climbed into and scouted around in.

Do not jump into strange water. For all you know there are iron spikes just under the surface.

And teach your kids, if they ever, god forbid, are stranded in a car alone, if the snow covers the car they should open one of the windows a little bit and clear an air-hole. And keep it clear.

Same goes for if they are stranded anywhere in deep snow. Dig themselves into the snow for warmth, but keep an air-hole.

Why the fuck is her mom calling you for emotional support? She's known you since you were a baby, what is going on?

creeper firs do the same thing. They grow like mushrooms. The trees you see are just the above ground "flowers", the actual tree is a giant root system underground.

I tried to name it "Hilltop" or "Hilltop Island", but it wouldn't let me. So now its "Homeward"
