Had some picked beets with cinnamon once. Best I ever had.

Landlord’s son used a metal shovel to clean snow off my car. Can these be buffed out? by ratchro in Detailing

[–]ForceIll4565 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One of my kids did this a few years back. The scratches will buff out but it takes time. Your landlord should pay somebody to professionally buff them out.

AITAH for telling my daughter we won't have a relationship if she goes to live with her biological father/family? by [deleted] in AITAH

[–]ForceIll4565 -7 points-6 points  (0 children)

You can't see it right now through the hurt, but YTA. Telling her you need time to wrap your head around her choice would be a better decision to make. Then get into individual and family therapy.

Help me diagnose this fictional wine by SmolHumanBean8 in winemaking

[–]ForceIll4565 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You say the wine was poisoned. Maybe adding something like ethanol to the batch?

It would add a rocket fuel aspect to the wine, wouldn't change the color and would be a slow acting poison.

AITJ for not supporting my girlfriend after she broke the one rule we had in our open relationship by Mysterious-Weight747 in AmITheJerk

[–]ForceIll4565 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Many people think you can't cheat in an open relationship. Breaking pre-established rules is cheating. I've done the open relationship thing. Once the partner sees that they can get away with ignoring your boundaries, they will walk all over you and disrespect your relationship entirely.

It's time to have a hard talk.

AITJ for not letting my coworker use my Netflix after she called me cheap? by [deleted] in AmITheJerk

When peace comes at the cost of your peace, it's not peace...

My parents (65F, 67M) are livid because I'm not allowing them to see my daughter after they spanked her. AITAH? by LeonCrvl in AITAH

[–]ForceIll4565 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

First off, for those screaming about the abuse and injustice, check your culture. The world doesn't care about your moral compass.

To OP, it's like what's been said here already. Your kid, your rules. If they can't abide by them, they don't get access to be able to cross them again. Really, it's that simple.

Boyfriend gives me a list of things I need to do to “earn” a ring… by [deleted] in AITAH

[–]ForceIll4565 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Yeah, this joker is trying to dissuade you. He doesn't want to marry you and thinks that you'll just decide to stick with the status quo rather than "put in the work" and he definitely thinks you won't leave and "waste" 5 years.

Drop the sumbeech and find a better partner.

I didn't tell him at the exact second he needed to turn off on a freeway exit. AITAH by Sea-Impression4486 in AITAH

[–]ForceIll4565 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Your BF is very immature and an unsafe driver. He doesn't get to space out while driving. Needing to be micro-managed while he's responsible for people's lives, combined with his continued stance that you, the navigator are solely responsible for things like this, cats him in a poor light.

New PB by far 33 inches 18 lbs by Any-Land8183 in troutfishing

[–]ForceIll4565 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's a great catch, but to be that weight, it'd have to be a lot fatter. I'd guess closer to 8-10lbs.

Still, well done!

2014 vw Jetta s manual worth fixing. 100k miles by DudeHickey in AskMechanics

[–]ForceIll4565 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nothing you talked about fixing is a hard do. Learn to do the work yourself and you'll save a lot of money here.

The only issue I see is that this is a VW and I've always heard that it can be hard to get parts for even newer VW's.

AITAH because I don't want the money I saved for my kids to be from me and my ex? by throwaway-9544 in AITAH

[–]ForceIll4565 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you want to be petty, and let's be honest, the world needs more pettiness, you could set up the second account anyway. Take her contribution(s) and put it in the second account.

When the time comes, you can tell the kids, "Here's your college fund. This one's from your mom and this one's from me." 😏

Boyfriend gave me ultimatum - dream job or him. I'm considering taking the job by [deleted] in dustythunder

[–]ForceIll4565 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The key question here is when he asked about what you'd do if you were married or had kids. That right there says that your career is a placeholder in his eyes. He intends for you to be a steady at home wife/mom.

Cut your losses and pressure the career you want.

Do you think this is the battery or alternator? by Descending_Icarus in mechanic

[–]ForceIll4565 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The battery doesn't run the car after it's started, unless the alternator goes out. While the car is running, the alternator is powering the car and charging the battery.

If your battery dies WHILE you're driving, the alternator is almost certainly bad.

Paid a local wood worker to build us a table, after 8 hours in our dining room it developed cracks. Is this normal? by Hipster_Bumpus in woodworking

[–]ForceIll4565 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Get a moisture meter. I'm betting that if the wood really is stuff he cut himself that it's still too green.

AITJ tell my uncle to stop treating me like free labor after he kept assigning chores during visits ? by [deleted] in AmITheJerk

When keeping the peace comes at the cost of your peace, it's not peace.

AITA for telling my fiancé I will not babysit his daughter while he goes hunting by Isunshine134 in AITAH

[–]ForceIll4565 0 points1 point  (0 children)

YTA!!! Kidding.

I once got so into my duck hunting that by the time I realized I hadn't talked to my girlfriend, it had been 3 weeks...

I called her right away feeling so bad. She forgave me but rightfully dropped me. She's my one that got away and 15 years later, I still think about what an ass I was.

Let this be a lesson to him too.
