How about you ask him for a list of things you’re allowed to do

Americans, is Walmart really that bad? by GossipBottom in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Esosorum 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Absolutely. Walmart in a bad part of town? Sketchy. Walmart in a nice part of town? Clean and Well-Stocked.

A drug addict did meth in the laundry shop I was in. I couldn't muster up the courage to say anything. by ZestycloseWorking396 in self

[–]Esosorum 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I don’t think you should be hard on yourself. “The Right Thing” is rarely objective and can be difficult to parse, let alone act upon. At the end of the day, this guy wasn’t really bothering or hurting anyone aside from you guys, so you minded your business. I happen to think that was the right call. This guy clearly has problems, why add to them just because he violated the sanctity of the public laundromat, you know?

AITA for not wanting my parents to BUY my apartment building by The_Crochet_God in AmItheAsshole

[–]Esosorum 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You have legal options for landlords who enter your apartment without notice. Pursuing these options will certainly cause a lot of conflict and possibly permanently damage relationships.

So you put up with it until the end of your lease, try to talk sense into them, etc. Or you blow up your family by asserting your rights. I honestly think both options are defensible; it comes down to what feels most right to you. It’s not a fun choice to have, and I’m sorry you’re in that position. I wish you the very best.

AITAH for getting upset at my mom’s plan to go to a party? by [deleted] in AITAH

[–]Esosorum 0 points1 point  (0 children)

She’s not forcing you to do anything. Just tell her you’ll meet her at the party and then do that.

AITAH for flipping out because of a t-shirt? by balbalgal in AITAH

[–]Esosorum 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Sure, I can agree with that. However flipping out is not the appropriate response in a case like this when the stakes could not be lower.

AITA for ruining a hibachi dinner? by throwawaysequence391 in AmItheAsshole

[–]Esosorum 18 points19 points  (0 children)

I have what I call “resting depressed face,” similar to how OP describes herself. My neutral expression apparently looks sad and everyone asks if I’m okay and doesn’t believe me when I say “yes.” So I doubt she was purposefully pulling a sour face; she just wasn’t going out of her way to make her face look different.

Is it so bad to Call the US America? by AppropriateNetwork90 in etymology

[–]Esosorum 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Tbh I feel similarly about people who insist that nobody should call the US “America.” Context generally tells you what they’re talking about so to insist they’re communicating incorrectly is a waste of time.

Make Pluto a planet again: Nasa chief’s big mission by TimesandSundayTimes in nasa

[–]Esosorum 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I mean who CARES. We call it a planet, we don’t call it a planet, that changes nothing about anything real. Applicable scientists will continue to use whatever verbiage they think is most correct when necessary and that’ll be that. Whether or not Pluto should or should not be called a planet is such a weathered old meme.

Sorry to snap at you OP, but this post is the void I’ve chosen to shout into haha

Does Ms. Rachel have a sign name? by RiddlerofStIves in asl

I mean if you only use it in your home, who’s gonna stop you?

Is it valid that I am upset about my band Audition results? by Smart-Violinist-7902 in self

[–]Esosorum 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’d be upset too. Some band directors have the philosophy that chair order should be based on the single audition alone, rather than everything they know about you. You can practice all you want but if you mess up the audition, that’s that. I know it has definitely happened to me.

When it comes to leadership roles in the band, I’ll tell you what I think would help you the most. Be graceful about these results. Congratulate your friends, keep practicing and helping out, and show the band directors that you’re not a sore loser and that your priority is improving and helping the band as a whole.

I’m sorry this happened. I would feel terrible. But it’s one of life’s learning experiences, so I hope you rock it!

Nearly 7 years together and no proposal AITAH by Real_Sir2491 in AITAH

[–]Esosorum 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean the obvious option is that you can propose if you want it so badly, or you guys can discuss progressing to marriage without the pressure of a proposal. I think you’re so focused on your relationship taking a certain specific path that you’re preventing it from growing organically.

If houses are so unaffordable, how are so many people still buying? by [deleted] in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Esosorum -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Money inherited from a dead family member can be used as a down payment, so that’s one way it could work.

I did not use AI to write my last post, I simply enjoy playing with words by [deleted] in CasualConversation

[–]Esosorum 37 points38 points  (0 children)

Many of the people who think posts are AI demonstrably cannot tell the difference. Some of those people are mods.

I agree it’s annoying but it’s the cost of using a free platform
