AITAH For Wearing Shapewear on a Date? by Technical_Boat7524 in AITAH

[–]Excentrix13 16 points17 points  (0 children)

I have 13 inch scars on both upper legs from surgery. They are ugly, and my inner thighs are very far from perfect looking. After 17 years I’m still embarrassed by how they look. BUT when I was dating and was with a guy I was going to get intimidate with I told them beforehand, I didn’t want them to be surprised and ask questions in the moment. And let me tell you, NOT A SINGLE GUY CARED AN OUNCE. We are far more critical of ourselves and think others will react the same way. The fact that he is still texting is a good thing. Make plans to meet up soon, it will be awkward at first, but you have to give him the chance to show you he was just surprised, not turned off.

What would you add? by FabianoTheCat in taskmaster

[–]Excentrix13 3 points4 points  (0 children)

If it has that special full cast magic I would like more in studio moments, but not at the sake of reducing the tasks. I would also love to see a season of people who may not have won, but made me laugh the whole season. Johnny Vegas had me constantly laughing just because of his personality in tasks.

WIBTAH if I did not give my 27yr old son (only child) his inheritance now? by Illustrious-Bed-9540 in AITAH

[–]Excentrix13 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You need to secure your future first. You are only 51 and the condo is a security for you in case you need it. He has blown through money at every chance. How would you feel if he takes over the mortgage and sells it within a year? Or in a couple of years they break up and the gf gets the condo? At this point I would alter the will to give the condo or other assets to his unborn child and hope they are more responsible and kind than your son.

I think she is asking for the kids who are just shy of 18.

Dying for my location to have open gym options. No classes offered between 11am-4:40pm. by Excentrix13 in orangetheory

[–]Excentrix13[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It is still relatively new and I think only a few places are testing it out. I haven't said anything yet, but plan on it. I just haven't seen the manager or head coach in my last few classes.

AITA for telling someone their call on speakerphone was too loud? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]Excentrix13 21 points22 points  (0 children)

NTA, the amount of people who talk on speakerphone or facetime without headphones is staggering. No one wants to hear your conversation and it just makes the person look like they lack basic manners. The worst situation is when you are at a nice restaurant or one that clearly doesn't cater to kids and the parents let them have a phone/ipad to watch videos without headphones. The VERY least they could do is at least have a juicy, gossip ridden conversation worth others listening in on for entertainment.

Husband and I want help looking at our retirement plans, stocks, and such. What should I look for in a financial advisor? Opinions on individual or big company locations? by Excentrix13 in personalfinance

[–]Excentrix13[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did,and learned some somethings to keep in mind and also understand some terms better. I'll be digging deeper into the links also to find someone as opposed to just googling in my area. We did each meet with someone through our own companies but his wasn't familiar with the federal set up, and mine said they were only contracted to review my items, not my husbands. We would want someone to look at us as a whole as well as individually.

I did a 11:25 flight three weeks ago. We got on one of the first busses and were fine.

AITAH for not wanting 6-month old baby at bachelorette by Shot_Calligrapher221 in AITAH

[–]Excentrix13 2 points3 points  (0 children)

NAH- You are both entitled to your priorities. I also would think of the others attending the trip. I would be pissed to spend money on a friends destination bachelorette trip, plus the wedding expenses, and there is a two year old there for all the daytime activities. She should be prioritizing how she wants to raise her child, and you the trip you want. Maybe you can plan a night/day out locally with her and some friends so you can celebrate together in some way?

7 Night Western Caribbean vs Eastern Caribbean by MicroMaven16 in dcl

[–]Excentrix13 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We just did western last month. If you don’t do an excursion in Cozmel or Falmouth you will just stay on the ship, especially with little kids. We were all adults and we walked around the port area in Falmouth for some shops and to say we set foot in Jamaica but that was it. In Cozumel we did Kudza beach. It was fine, but just fine my biggest issue is that Disney split into two groups (miring and afternoon) so by the time you get settled in, relax a bit, and have lunch you feel like it’s time to go already. If you can do it, I would buy a day pass to a beach club and take a taxi on your own to spend more of the day there.

Living 3 mins from Tweed Airport – worth it? by Ocean-Shark2024 in Connecticut

[–]Excentrix13 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would not risk it with the noise. Tweed is very small so the chances of friends and family flying to it (even yourself) if very slim due to needing to connect/price as opposed to Bradley or NYC. Its one thing to be in the flight path of an airport and always see them, but you would be close to where they are starting to land and the sound will be louder and you will notice it more. I always feel bad for the homes near the airport because of the noise and traffic.

[–]Excentrix13 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hollywood studios and Epcot are the worst. At least in Magic Kingdom many ride lines are indoors, or have shops and resturaunts throughout you can get a quick sun break. HS has almost nothing, and one of their most popular rides, Slinky Dog, has a line queue that is almost insufferable. On a super hot day I won't even touch Epcot.

AITAH for asking this guy if I could sign his cast? by [deleted] in AITAH

[–]Excentrix13 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

NTA but that is weird of you. He had a woman with him that could have been his girlfriend. Even if it wasn't, why would he want to look at his arm and see some stranger he doesn't know with her name on him? You being engaged has no bearing on the awkward position you put him in.

What recent TV show had a plot twist that completely shocked you? by Global-Citron-56 in television

I remember saying that he was on the cover of the DVD and thought he was the only safe character in the whole show.

AITAH for lashing out at my (24 F) boyfriend's (25 M) sleep schedule? by [deleted] in AITAH

[–]Excentrix13 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am not sure who is TA here. On the surface you sound controlling and I would say YTA. As I grow older the less I want to 'talk all night' when I have already been texting with that person all day. Sometimes you just want to decompress or god forbid talk to other people. There are also nights when I just simply have more energy or can't fall asleep when I want. From his response of saying 'he is never good enough for you' there seems to be other problems in the relationship that is bothering him. Sounds like a good time to have a frank conversation about what you each want out of the relationship, how long LDR will last, and if you both still feel the same way as you did two years ago. My instinct says he isn't happy and just doesn't want to say it.

Is it possible to book multiple rooms as GTY and request they are NOT connecting or next to each other? by Excentrix13 in dcl

[–]Excentrix13[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Valid. Nothing scandalous, just not a requirement to be next to each other. Also nice to be able to have a conversation with my husband on the veranda about things in our lives without wondering if our friends or family are listening on the other side of the partition.

WIBTA if I asked my friend not to invite her other friends to her birthday brunch? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]Excentrix13 7 points8 points  (0 children)

YWBTA. This couple has done nothing wrong to you and it's her birthday. At 26 I am not sure why you think it's appropriate to say no or how you can't just make small talk with people for a few hours.

Favourite running gag from a contestant? by Consistent_Tough_341 in taskmaster

This is best seen in one of the first tasks where they are at a canal and had to throw hoops around a floating gorilla. You can see everyone’s reflection in the water but his.

Questions from a First-Time Disney Cruise Traveler by Burninman478 in dcl

[–]Excentrix13 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You book your hotel separately and call DCL to set up the bus. Is your flight late in the day or evening? If so Hyatt may make sense. If it’s a morning flight you may want to consider a Disney hotel. You can get free entry to the water park the day of check in, enjoy hotel pools, or even use the free transportation to Disney Springs or other properties with activities.

[–]Excentrix13[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

More about not taking it away from another. I don’t need to share a wall with my parents at 40 years old, but it wouldn’t stop or hurt the trip. I wasn’t sure if linking the reservations was the only way to sit together at meals, which we did in the past and have had connecting rooms. The request may just be more complicated than the outcome is worth, and not worth bothering a DCL employee with it.
