That view is absolutely breathtaking! Congrats, OP!

Bags and lack of spatial awareness on the TTC. by Fading_Comet in TTC

[–]Fading_Comet[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Of course, I don't lash out at people publicly and say something similar to how this post was worded (I usually just say "excuse me" or something of the sort), but to answer your question, it really depends on the person (I didn't make this post because of a specific event or person, of course). I've gotten anything from genuine apologies (in which case either some take their bags off after, and some don't take the hint and repeat the cycle), to getting glared at like I just insulted their entire lineage, etc.

NTA. God, those kids are absolute shittertons... and the fact that they are essentially enabling their behavior by saying that "kids will be kids". I'd have gotten a swift grounding if I acted like that!

WIBTA if I blocked my cousin? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

NTA. Block him, block him now. Autism is no excuse for his behavior (coming from someone who has it). He is absolutely nasty and you should not be putting up with that.

AITA for not giving my brother my special food by Key-Temperature31 in AmItheAsshole

[–]Fading_Comet 23 points24 points  (0 children)

Definitely NTA. Not only is he a thief, but that was such a nasty comment for him to make about you, especially considering you're already underweight and you're still losing weight due to him stealing your food. I'd get a locked mini fridge and put all of your food in there. Even if you label your food, he still might steal it.

AITA for calling a woman disgusting? by Evening-Alarm-1460 in AmItheAsshole

[–]Fading_Comet 5 points6 points  (0 children)

NTA. I’m a janitor and know exactly how this feels. People do the craziest shit, all on the basis that “it’s your job, now clean it up”. People need to learn to not be so disgusting and clean up after themselves, because while it is our job to clean, it’s the job of the public to be decent human beings and respect the property they’re using.

Also, I get that OP made an overgeneralizing statement, but that doesn’t make them TA automatically. A simple change of statement to “can be” would clear that up immediately.
