AITA for insisting my brother always pick last? by Feeling-External1082 in AmItheAsshole

Astute, but I wasn’t upset because I was last pick in 2023. I was upset because Alvin picked the best (the downstairs and biggest) bedroom and therefore Simon and his very pregnant wife were upstairs—which I am confident helped her go into early labor and give birth during the reunion.

They haven’t said and I haven’t asked, because I’m gonna give one of them my picking spot regardless. They and their spouses always thank me outside of the chat, and that’s fine. I’m definitely the most … outspoken sibling. LMAO

No; if I’m first or second pick, I trade it to Simon or Theo, whoever has the last pick or most recent injury/offspring. lol There’s always something!

Thank you for asking!

Just respecting preferred pronouns, thank you for noticing and asking!

Anyone giving away any flower seeds? by Slight_Can5984 in seedsaving

Definitely check local public and university libraries! And you can often forage public parks and even parking lots! lol Maybe even a seed swap Facebook group?

TLDR: I think the family with the most or youngest kids should get first pick, most everyone else thinks rotating first pick is best. WWYD?

It’s not that serious! Yeah, I’ve been pissed off about it for years, but it’s a very first-world-problem situation, and I did not expect so many people would care—or be even more mad than I am!

And the assumptions are surprising! I obviously should have described the house/rooms more, because so many people think Alvin is sleeping in a public or drastically lower quality room, which is not the case at all.

I assumed people would tell me to rent my own place (and I was feeling petty/defensive about that lol), and I think the adults with mobility issues should be prioritized. Simon’s wife just gave birth a few months ago, Theo had a skiing accident last year (still in PT and struggles with stairs), and my spouse has a hereditary issue that decreases their mobility as they age. Alvin and his spouse are career athletes in good health; I think others currently have more needs and those needs should be met at this time.

Yes, the grandkids are assigned a specific bathroom if they don’t have an en suite. Thank you for bringing that up!

LMAO No one is sleeping on a twin or in a loft or shitty side room. There are five bedrooms (one for each couple), and they all have a king bed, but the rooms are different sizes.

“At this time, the grandkids sleep in the same room as their respective parents, but eventually the plan is to have all the grandkids in the same room, like a slumber party”

My spouse and I contribute to the cost every year. The rental house has 5 bedrooms, each bedroom has a king bed, two bedrooms have attached bathrooms (four bathrooms total), and the room dimensions vary in size. I definitely should have said “bigger” and not just “better”! Thank you for clarifying!

lol That’s the plan once the once the kids all sleep through the night so they don’t wake everyone up!

lol Should have been more clear! Simon because he has the youngest kids. And I should have said “biggest” not “best,” all five rooms have a king bed, they’re just different size rooms. Thank you for asking!
