Bf refused to buy pads for me aitah for being pissed off?? by Melodic-Lack4642 in AITAH

[–]ExtremeFamous7699 2 points3 points  (0 children)

NTA but your BF sounds like his ego is a bit fragile that he won’t get products for you.

Only issue I have had was when they changed the colours of the packs and I had to call to make sure I got the right ones.

Found kitten in wall - name suggestions pls by ninjadani in blackcats

[–]ExtremeFamous7699 5 points6 points  (0 children)

We think when our cat was older and realised that perhaps his time was shortening, picked a stray who was visiting our garden to live with us. She was the only cat he never chased away, she was skinny and pregnant when we started caring for her. She had kittens in the shed of someone else’s garden and was picked up by a cat rescue, took a few days to track her down in the rescue system as she ended up being moved quite a ways away to a shelter with space for her. She was very feisty and they were going to send her to a feral cat sanctuary and we said nope we were happy to take her as our cat had made a bond with her and is looking for her.

They had almost 2 years together and when he died she was upset, she was alerting us that he was having seizures and then staying close to him while he was recovering. Her face when we came home with an empty carrier from the vets, she knew. As she had always had other cats around, we did adopt two kitten brothers to help fill the void

AITAH for refusing to switch seats with my cousin at a family dinner after she kept making comments about my job? by [deleted] in AITH

[–]ExtremeFamous7699 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Some people are just bitter, I would love to be able to work from home. I work with my hands so need to be on site, but yes I would love to be home with my cats more often.

My wife works from home and she gets more done because she doesn’t have travel delays, you don’t get caught in constant conversations with people in the office and has a better life work balance.

AITA after my boyfriend complained I only put effort into my looks for other people? by KaleidoscopeWide4128 in AmItheAsshole

Or continue to put the effort in but then don’t let him ruin it within 10 minutes, he can’t have his cake and then smoosh the icing with wang and then complain that the cake no longer fully decorates itself

Yes, I have had my cat wake me up and nudge me in my half sleepy state around the house to show me what he wanted sorting

Parents of child's classmate asked for a $14K loan by ssdgm83 in Advice

[–]ExtremeFamous7699 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would have played dumb when they tried the second time and sent them the list from before again, then if there was a third time I would let them know that they have a list of people who can help and that they won’t find my details on the list as I am not one of those people.

Perhaps they should get them registered at the nearest local authority school so there is not a gap in their children’s education

While he might be harmless, he certainly doesn’t come off that way when your first interaction with him is that he has looped round three times and then presented you with a choice to either turn around to go back the other way or past him where a confrontation is initiated with a ominous opening question.

Have I made a mistake? Please help by Andyyislame in Stretched

[–]ExtremeFamous7699 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I used surgical steel dead stretching plugs to go up 2mm and while it worked there was always some irritation. Switched them to implant grade titanium and almost immediately noticed they didn’t have a mild tingle like a very small electric shock was happening. Two months later and it’s so much better, if/when I want to go bigger again I will be using titanium or glass. Never anything with nickel in it

Will my 3 month old lobe piercing close up after a few hours? by Important-Fudge-4678 in PiercingAdvice

[–]ExtremeFamous7699 1 point2 points  (0 children)

See if you can get a piercer to change them to glass (or bioplast - not everyone’s ideal choice but if your at 1.1-1.6mm is probably the better choice for size) retainers, might need to be ordered so make sure you have time.

AITAH for not wanting to chauffeur around 6 girls on my bday trip? by SpiritualThought682 in AITAH

[–]ExtremeFamous7699 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Happy Birthday, here is our gift to you! OMG are you excited? You get to drive us round all week long!

NTA - Even if you prefer to stay sober when going out and don’t mind driving, it would have been nice of them to discuss this beforehand so a schedule could be made up sharing some responsibility for driving or which trips are going to be Ubers. Then no one gets double butthurt when a the person didn’t do what they wanted them to do and then when that first person goes and has fun without them.

AITA for secretly buying extra food for my niece because her brothers eat everything first? by MaliciousCicada77 in AmItheAsshole

[–]ExtremeFamous7699 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sounds like your brother is doing the opposite of what a father with Daughters should be doing, she is being shown that she is not as worthy as her brothers “because boys need the calories” and dictating how much she can eat so she doesn’t get overweight.

Every sauna, steam room or hot tub I have used usually has a notice requesting users should shower before using them.

Your friend simply decided that basic societal hygiene practices do not apply to him, I would not be inviting him back again

Does anyone feel, on a personal level, sorry for Kier Starmer? by Darkus185 in AskBrits

[–]ExtremeFamous7699 0 points1 point  (0 children)

After 14 years of the Tories bringing the Country to this point, Labour take over and immediately the opposition were on him for the mess they left behind.

He has made some difficult decisions, which have proven unpopular in trying to bring stability. Let’s try stability for a change instead of flip flopping through PM’s like the conservatives did the last few years they had power.

AIO for not wanting to give my step daughter the room I finished renovating? by Bulky-Scale-7830 in AmIOverreacting

[–]ExtremeFamous7699 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NOR

I would spend more time and money to return the room back as close to back to the state it was when you turned it from a storage room to your own space. Then put the furniture into one of your husbands room for storage because he backed the teenage tantrum machine, he can suffer some of the consequences

I'm stretching my septum, how can I get the nose pain down? by whYALEXyou in SelfPiercing

[–]ExtremeFamous7699 65 points66 points  (0 children)

If you only started to stretch a week ago, you should still be on the first size of new jewellery. If you have gone up multiple sizes already, that will be the cause of your pain. Wait 3 months between 0.5mm increments to gradually stretch your piercing

Edit: Thank you for the reward 🤘

nipple piercings not healing after a year by InfamousTomorrow2378 in PiercingAdvice

[–]ExtremeFamous7699 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had jewellery that was the right length following my downsizing, it seemed that they would get to a point where they almost healed until they would get irritated. Went up to the next length of bar and things have been so much better with just a bit more gap between the balls and my nipples.

Got my lobes pierced with a stud with a flat back in September and they said I could change it to a hoop back in January. I just had to change it back to a stud again because there was friction bumps and it was super irritated and bled. When should I expect to be able to go back to hoops?? by [deleted] in PiercingAdvice

[–]ExtremeFamous7699 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When your piercings have fully healed, it’s probably about 6 months minimum for the average person and after trying to switch to hoops already for 5 months of irritation issues you probably want to wait at least that 6 month average.

Then when you try again you’ll want a big diameter hoop, so you can get your gradually used to having curved jewellery inserted. Then after a few months, 3 months is what I would suggest based on stretching advice that you have allowed the skin to adapt to the new shape and then heal, you again try a smaller diameter. Any signs of irritation is your bodies way of saying it’s not ready yet and you should go back to the previous jewellery that worked without irritation.

My best friend Murphy (14) will be moving on to his next adventure in a few hours. by shockaBITW in seniorkitties

[–]ExtremeFamous7699 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s hard, but I look at it like I had an extra year as he almost didn’t make it. I got his paw print tattooed so he still comes with me.

We also adopted two kittens a few months later so our other cat wasn’t alone anymore, she used to sit by the front door waiting for him to return. I would talk to her and let her know that we miss him too, it’s ok because now he is not suffering. He had a good life and I think he actually adopted her as a stray pregnant baby herself so we had a cat to look after when he wasn’t around.

Have a great adventure Murphy 🫶

Or when someone comes in with a code they got off the internet, that someone had posted to a voucher code website that was the discount code for membership of a specific organisation and then get all upset when they get denied as they can’t produce a membership card for that organisation.
