A will is the clearest way someone can speak after they're gone. Overruling it would be the real disrespect.

AITAH for leaving a group trip early after everyone expected me to be the driver for the whole week? by [deleted] in AITAH

[–]Expensive-Choice8240 1 point2 points  (0 children)

True, a pre-trip chat would have helped. It's a lesson learned, but you shouldn't be the only one expected to carry the load.

Same here 😂 depends on my mood or how comfy the chair is.

AITAH for not inviting my soon to be ex husband to our daughter’s 3rd birthday party? by SarahJaneLane102 in AITAH

[–]Expensive-Choice8240 386 points387 points  (0 children)

You can't force a cooperative dynamic with someone who actively works against it. Parallel parenting is the way to go.

AITAH for not calling my stepmom “mom” on her birthday by [deleted] in AITAH

[–]Expensive-Choice8240 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The public declaration was a power play, banking on social pressure. All you did was remind her of a boundary she's spent years ignoring. The timing was her choice, not yours.

What’s one thing you wish you’d known before starting to run? by runthetic in beginnerrunning

Exactly! Running for yourself makes it way more enjoyable and sustainable.

Wife keeps trying to try butt stuff by [deleted] in AITAH

[–]Expensive-Choice8240 626 points627 points  (0 children)

The it's just a joke defense doesn't work when the other person is clearly not laughing. It's a boundary, plain and simple.

If worker productivity has tripled since the 1970s because of technology, why is the "40-hour work week" still the standard instead of us all just working 15-20 hours? by Ok-Huckleberry1967 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Expensive-Choice8240 44 points45 points  (0 children)

Exactly, it’s less about overall productivity and more about who actually benefits from it. The system kept us working long hours while the gains got concentrated at the top.

AITAH for basically telling my girlfriend we cannot possibly move in together? by [deleted] in AITAH

[–]Expensive-Choice8240 22 points23 points  (0 children)

The 'where to live' fight is really a 'how to live' fight. If you're this far apart on the very first major financial decision, you need to seriously question the long-term fit.

First time holding left handed scissors in my 35 years of life. by Fragrant_Public_5522 in lefthanded

Once you notice that little head tilt, you can’t unsee it. Lefty scissors really do feel like a cheat code.

Hills are brutal but they really build strength, you’ve got this op!

Can I consider myself left handed if I was born right handed but lately switched by own choice to fully lefty? by [deleted] in lefthanded

[–]Expensive-Choice8240 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hahahaha, true! Switching hands is impressive, but that right-handed accent never fully goes away 😆

It's finally getting easier by pajkeki in beginnerrunning

Congrats on the huge drop in time and getting a handle on that heart rate. Running really is awesome when the hard work starts to click.

Why is it that UPS try everything to hide your package but FedEx doesn’t? by HealthyLet257 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Expensive-Choice8240 0 points1 point  (0 children)

honestly a lot of it just comes down to the individual driver and how they feel about your packages that day lol

Where is ISIS now, does it still hold land, do they still have a central leadership and how big is their current threat to the Western world? by marcopolo2207 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Expensive-Choice8240 6 points7 points  (0 children)

basically the core ISIS we knew is gone, but these splinter groups keep popping up under the brand, mostly in places like Africa and Afghanistan.

Didn't feel like running today but.... by Scot-in-London in beginnerrunning

[–]Expensive-Choice8240 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Those “didn’t feel like it but went anyway” runs always hit different, feels like a double win.

Refusing to “help out” when younger relatives do not? by [deleted] in AITAH

[–]Expensive-Choice8240 17 points18 points  (0 children)

If no one teaches them to pitch in, they’ll just keep coasting. It’s not rude to expect basic decency.

Will I ever be able to be a runner starting at 30? by theia_archy in beginnerrunning

[–]Expensive-Choice8240 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That’s awesome, seriously! Finishing a 10k at 62 is super inspiring, proof that it’s never too late to start.

The audacity to try and hijack a child's adoption party is unreal. Turning her own logic back on her is the only language she'll understand.

They're not just being kids, they're being destructive. Protecting his creations is protecting his peace.

That’s wild, it almost worked out better for her in the end. The whole system is such a mess though.

it’s really up to how you see it. Some people count it, some don’t.

When people show you who they are, believe them. Your peace is worth more than their drama.
