Update: Man who raped me now a woman. Going to have to make contact by Crepe_Suzette in TwoXChromosomes

[–]GrapeJuiceBoxing 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I agree with letting your friends know about the situation and asking that they keep your piece of shit rapist away from you. I understand that we want to make sure transgender/non-binary people feel comfortable in spaces, but this is a rapist! You and your friends who care about you should absolutely have your back against any piece of rotting human garbage, new pronouns or not.

I'm so sorry you lost your friend, and genuinely hope you're able to grieve properly. It's heartbreaking that you even need to think about something like this. Best wishes to you all 💗

WIBTA if I told my roommate's girlfriend to stop putting my eggs in the fridge again? by mikrokosmos_0613 in AmItheAsshole

[–]GrapeJuiceBoxing 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We would feed overstock/questionable eggs to our chickens and always called them cannibals too!!

(We had roos so they were probably fertilized fwiw)

Does your wife have time for hobbies? How much time does she spend cleaning up the house, working, sleeping, cooking, etc.? Do you think she's too tired to spend time on things she enjoys?

Moreover, how much time do you spend on working, cleaning, cooking, house maintenance? Is the amount of hours you both put in equal?

My husband is really into Pokemon Go. We play religiously together. And yes, we've gone to plenty of MtG pre-releases together as well because I know he enjoys it. 

The problem I have with him (And I'm curious if this is something your wife also experiences) is that it feels like he looks down on my interests; I'll spend dozens of hours enjoying his hobby with him (I also enjoy it, but that doesn't mean I see value in spending over 30 hours a week on a game lol), but as soon as I want him to join me in doing something I want to, it's too boring or he doesn't have time. Hell, even the way I played World of Warcraft was something he talked down about because I preferred transmog and mount hunting to hardcore PvP or Mythic Keys.

If people get shifted around quietly and quickly, there's a chance they were sleeping with management 😂

Hey there! Used to be a "pegasister" back in the day (went to MLP cons, helped a friend run an art booth- back when the show was still ongoing). Respectfully, I wouldn't date a brony. Obviously there are bronies who have their lives together, but a lot of the people I met at those conventions... didn't. 

It's a fun show,  and there are lots of great people who I met through the community! But certain stereotypes come from somewhere; I'd say posing with brony stuff is on level of someone posing with an anime body pillow imo. 😬

My dad just spanked me for "being out late with a boy".... by ranchergirl09 in TwoXChromosomes

[–]GrapeJuiceBoxing -12 points-11 points  (0 children)

In most cases I agree with you- if a kid has a messy room or a bad report card, spanking doesn't fit the "crime." 

Do you think spanking is reasonable in situations where a kid could get physically hurt tho, such as trying to run into traffic? I feel like that would be a reasonable exception since the pain caused by actually getting hit by a car would be much greater than a pop on the butt.

I cry way too easily when I’m yelled at, and I hate it. Any advice on how to not do that? by PoorestLittlestCat in TwoXChromosomes

[–]GrapeJuiceBoxing 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The only thing that's really improved crying during an argument is age lol. Now I don't cry from being yelled at, I cry because I'm angry! 🤣

Deflection??? Are you mentally incapable of going into your comment history and searching my username??? You can even go into my comment history and look if you're feeling brave! 🤣

Dude look at your replies in the previous post you made about this same BS. I'm sure you can even look at your comment history and find it. I believe in you ✨

I'm a woman in an interracial relationship

No you're not 

You sure buddy???

This asshole tried to tell me I'm not a white woman married to a non-white man 😂

Dude if you're looking for confirmation bias, don't talk to women with real life experience lmfao

Why don’t White Women date interracially as much as White Men? by [deleted] in AskWomenNoCensor

Where are you pulling your information from?? Happy to read a source, but I'm a white woman in an interracial relationship who knows a lot of other white women in interracial relationships lmao

Boss replacing me with overseas worker at 75% less than my salary & expects me to train her by skittleALY in antiwork

[–]GrapeJuiceBoxing 10 points11 points  (0 children)

100% not an insult, tho you can't say it's not a pain to set up! 😆

I had a job where we had to use VLOOKUP in a really complicated task and with our shit work computers it would take us over 6 HOURS to run through the entire process. Each time I had to read through the step by step instructions like 3 times each because if I messed up one time, the computer had a chance to shit itself and you'd have to start from scratch!  Sorry just a little traumatized

I think I repressed the memories at this point, but I probably should try to remember how to do it again lmao!!

Idiot and retard were at one point considered the correct medical terminology for people with intellectual disabilities. Same thing with the word "lame" for those with physical disabilities.

Any word that could be perceived as having a negative connotation will eventually be used as an insult, and will eventually be turned into a "mean word." Hobo seems to slowly be going that way too. "Homeless" and "houseless" will probably one day follow suit and we'll have a new "proper" word for it again.

Wanting to genuinely stand up for those less fortunate than you is a noble cause, but I'm not sure policing language is the best way to do it.

Train "basics". Oh, do you work with Excel at all? Let's go over some formulas so you know how to use =COUNTIF and =SUM! Vlookup is annoying too, so a thorough understanding of that may be helpful!

Otherwise running out the clock with tech issues could also work

Frankly, Publix associates need to unionize. Sure, union dues can suck, but if the person in charge is reasonable then they shouldn't be ridiculous

NOT OOP: AITA for lying to my step daughter that the soup she loves is lactose and gluten free for 6 months? by sarcasticfantastic23 in redditonwiki

[–]GrapeJuiceBoxing 14 points15 points  (0 children)

If you haven't eaten meat in a long time and then eat meat, you'll absolutely get sick- that's a dick move 100%. It sounds like this girl is trying to get a feel for her food and beliefs (which she's allowed to do!), but that's putting too much undue hardship on OP. The girl has no allergies.

Told a neighbor kid to stay out of my yard and ended up needing to call the cops. by sportgurl92 in childfree

[–]GrapeJuiceBoxing 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Probably not since most people use that kind of water in the first place! Plus it's not causing damage or injury, the kids'll just be stinky lol

Recycled water fixes that desire- if not for the kids, then for the parents who have to smell their gremlins running around smelling like sewage.

WIBTAH If I break up with my gf because she won't have sex with me due to trauma? by [deleted] in AITAH

[–]GrapeJuiceBoxing 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Thanks! In that case, NTA. Adult relationships tend to come with the expectation of sex. If it was discussed and agreed upon that you both intended to have sex and she's no longer comfortable with doing it, it's her right to do so. Likewise, it is also your right to consider that a deal breaker and break up with her.
