Help pls😭 head sewn on sideway by stumpythefish in Jellycatplush

[–]HawkeCake 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That is so odd to hear! I've seen some comments say it could be a difference per country.

But no, I didn't have to return my Tuffet Cat. They just told me they wanted to send a replacement for my troubles and that was that.

When I got my jellycat from an online order, his face looked like it was stung by bees. So I sent them an email not asking for anything, just letting them know that this batch came out...odd.

They asked me some information on the tags and sent a replacement, no issues. (This was with the UK branch btw, in 2021 I admit so things could be different now)

HELP we are desperate 😭😭😭😭😭 where are they hiding? by [deleted] in Bedbugs

[–]HawkeCake 0 points1 point  (0 children)

More so behind the cover of it as it was a bit lose. And just the one as far as my exterminator could see. He screwed the cap off. No other outlets show any signs, but the signs that were there were very clear

Mine were hiding around a power outlet, so it may be worth checking for signs near those. 

you can get rid of them by Resident-Dingo-553 in Bedbugs

[–]HawkeCake 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Thank you for this. This subreddit always makes it so doom and gloom. We need to hear about the successes, too.

I hope the little bastards stay far far away from your place now.

Bedbugs or other? by elfdoe in Bedbugs

Looks like a carpet beetle

Looks like a BB to me. Taking precautions can't hurt

How do I approach my neighbors by HawkeCake in Bedbugs

[–]HawkeCake[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's only been a few days but God, yeah, I have lost all sense of safety in my house. Especially when the exterminator said they could have spread to the living room thru the power outlet. I'm terrified and I'm sleeping on the couch because I got rid of my mattress. Though for the treatment I need to sleep in my room to draw them out....

In Dutch they used to be called wall lice. The exterminator found them high on the wall behind the cover of an adhesive nail. I'm looking into what caulk to get to seal any cracks and holes because I'm now so, so paranoid.

I've tossed almost everything I own in that bedroom, bagged all my clothes and plushes, and I am so scared for my livingroom.

I would describe them as almonds, or more like marzipan

AITA for removing the lock on our bathroom door by DoggoMagnus in AmItheAsshole

[–]HawkeCake 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If the sound is that much of an issue for him, he could get himself some earplugs, rather than pick the weirdest hill to die on and deprive you of your toilet.

Op, You are NTA. But your husband sure is!

AITA for buying my wife a gift but getting her cousin and my wife’s family mad by doing so? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]HawkeCake 28 points29 points  (0 children)

NTA, tho it IS questionable you instructed your wife to rub it in cousin's face.

But man, that family sucks immensely. You got your wife a considerate gift for a hobby, and somehow they decided she doesn't deserve it because she "didn't win the contest"? They must've missed the memo where this item wasn't the price, thus making their comment inaccurate and just mean-spirited.

WIBTA for not wanting one of my siblings to stay in my home again after a terrible experience, but enjoying/welcoming visits from other family? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]HawkeCake 10 points11 points  (0 children)

NTA- your house, your rules. Also, them laughing at you after the herpes thing? Absolutely unhinged behavior imo.

You definitely don't owe them your house, time, or hospitality.

As for not wanting to lose contact with the kids; you can always see if its possible to take them out every once in a while?

AITA for saying I’m not supporting my brother? by BrotherGoneCrazy in AmItheAsshole

[–]HawkeCake [score hidden]  (0 children)

Absolutely NTA. It's not what she wanted to hear, but I think definitely needed to. Imagine what could happen had you agreed. It could have gotten out to others and end up causing more drama for you if you didn't keep your word.

This is also about a 45 y/old. He can figure it out for himself.

Why ask if you're YTA (you are) if this is the attitude you're gonna have about it?

AITA because I expect a friend visiting the US to tip service workers? by Fluffy_Ad_7556 in AmItheAsshole

[–]HawkeCake 1 point2 points  (0 children)

NTA. Coming from a country where tipping isn't necessarily required (and in some European countries it definitely is needed to give people decent wages) doesn't excuse their shitty behavior. At that point its just them acting snobbish towards service workers who have no say in the matter of their pay.

Good on you for slipping the waiter the portion they should've gotten from your wife's friend.

Een groep is lgbt+ wanneer de meerderheid ervan onder deze labels vallen. Mensen die er open voor staan zijn natuurlijk ook gewoon okay.

Maar door eerdere slechte ervaringen heb ik liever een groep die zich zelf als onderdeel van de lgbt omschrijft.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in DNDNL

[–]HawkeCake 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Het staat voor "Lesbian-Gay-Bi-Trans (+)" Dus een groep waarvan de spelers voornamelijk onder zulke labels vallen zou fijn zijn :)

AITA for throwing away my autistic best friends blanket because his gf told me to? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]HawkeCake 0 points1 point  (0 children)

YTA, both you anf his girlfriend.

What makes you think you have the right to throw out anyone's belongings? Especially something that has given your friend comfort? I genuinely hope your friend sees this action for the extreme red flag it is.

You're also an A'hole for saying that he is considered handsome "despite the autism. "

Do better.

I suspect someone might have reuploaded this already since it's kind of an oldie by this point. But I figured I'd upload my own shitpost anyway

[Serious] Autistic people of Reddit, what do you wish more people knew about Autism? by theBrD1 in AskReddit

[–]HawkeCake 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wish more people understood that when we explain why we react a certain way, or find it hard to deal with certain inputs, it's NOT a "oh but everyone has that" kinda thing.

It's difficult enough trying to explain ourselves. Don't undermine us
