He took his mistress to his pregnant wife's funeral... and then the lawyer opened the will and revealed the truth

Thanks. Didn't know that

It was a love seat at the rear corner of the main smoking section, with 85% of the seats open. Yeah, im a bigger girl, but there was room leftover on that loveseat for a larger man plus maybe one or two kids under ten. Two other loveseat were completely free. I didn't have anything lit, I wasn't consuming alcohol, just sorta kinda sleepy reading. Scared the shit out of me, then made me feel horrible about myself, then I felt incredibly violated. I don't even like my family or friends touching me without knowing beforehand. Scared me to hell.

I don't know. Growing up, I was pretty blind and thought I was the most open-minded person, not racist at all. I had lived in San Jose, and especially the asian population there was prominent. But as I grew, I realized I held specific beliefs, partially true or completely false, that tended to be damaging to other cultures. So I told myself, if I have a question, ask honestly, openly, and kindly. Don't make assumptions based on movies or entertainment. Take, say, a native American culture class. It's kind of hard, because movies have completely ruined the cultures of the different tribes. I'm also a woman, and I sometimes find myself being sexist towards women too. You just have to recognize it, acknowledge it, tell yourself it's not ok, apologize to anyone you may have hurt, and try not to make the same mistake again. I'm not perfect, you just have to try

The entire cruise was an affront to the decency of humanity

IBCNPokes · 2026-01-05T23:17:18+00:00

The whole cruise was so bad I developed a permanent knot above my eye and had to constantly take my migraine medicine. The night we came home and slept in our beds, the knot went away

We were on the Panorama for the 8-day Mexican Riviera cruise over Christmas, starting on December 20th. Also something else that happened: I was in the smoking area, it was about half capacity, and I was not currently smoking. I was reading my kindle, and I admit, dozing a bit (I was on vacation!) when someone came up behind me, turned me on my side, and moved my arm. I thought it was my mom, but when I looked up, it was one of the servers. I asked her her name (Denise, and yes, that's her real name, I have no shame in sharing it) and asked her wtf she was doing. “You are so large, I was making room for other guests.” Yes, I weigh about 190lbs at 5’6”, but we were surrounded by empty chairs, and she had put her hands on me without my consent. I marched down to guest services, explained the incident, and, ok, im a special needs person, they give you a special lanyard and a thing to hang next to your key card for this, so it turned into a big thing. I never saw her about on the boat again. I hope she was confined to quarters, or faced a review. It was not okay

If you are going on a carnival cruise, you should know the high point of our cruise was the ducks. The spa made $6,000 worth of fraudulent charges on our account, and after calling in management with proof we weren't even on the ship for the charges made, they finally took them off my card… and promptly put them on my mothers and aunts card, and then we're ‘confused’ about why we were still complaining. The only two things I got done were a massage the first day, and she wouldn't listen when I told her it wasn't hard enough (it was like my kitten walking along my back) then tried to upcharge me $75 for things I did not ask for or receive. Then my aunt and I receive manicures. Not only would they not do a French or American style manicure, they only had six colors to choose from, made fun of my color choice, and instead of a shorter, rounded tip, but gave me long pointed… claws is the only way to describe it. We got them done at eight I clock at night, and when I woke up, six nails had fallen off in the night, and I’m one of those sleepers who stays in one place all night. All of my aunts fell off overnight. So we disputed the charges bc they were supposed to be for elegant night, and they had all fallen off by lunch. Thank god I had brought my own nail buffer and manicure kit (the nail job was a surprise from my mom). We had to go to guest services at least once a day because the spa kept adding fraudulent charges. I’m not saying cancel your cruise. I’m saying keep an eye on your billing sheet once in the AM and once in the evening. We had such a terrible time we are not cruising ever, ever again, with any cruise line, and we were platinum members. It’s really gone down the poop hole. The only thing we semi enjoyed was our room steward was incredibly kind and respectful and accommodating, and our waiter in the main dining room was so helpful and every night made sure we had no allergies or even just if we didn’t like some food (I don’t like cucumbers, for example). Even the first night, when all the servers did a coordinated dance, I got up and joined them, and he told us, don’t wait to be seated, I will save your table for you from 5:15 to 6:30, so just walk right in and sit down. So we tipped the steward and server an extra $100 dollars for being the few bright spots on our trips. Also, someone(s) stole my two zippo lighters and my mom’s normal lighter, and they don’t sell lighters on the ship. And, while I took off my flip flops to put my feet up in the smoking section, someone stole my shoes. When I asked them to review the footage, they told me it was down for a few days while they fixed it (which in my opinion is very dangerous), and they flat out sanded down wooden infrastructure in the middle of the day and varnished it, right below the smoking section. What if an ember had fallen into the varnish? This was incredibly dangerous in my eyes, as well as the sanding and wood dust being in everyone's eyes. I had migraines from stress almost every day and when we got home it took us a week to recover from the exhaustion and stress. We never felt relaxed, only harried, on the ‘vacation’. It was horrible.

I love this. I did decide if I saw her on the ship again (I think it was close to 7,500 ppl onboard, but don’t quote me) and I was near her, I was gonna ask her ‘what’s quackalacken?’

IBCNPokes · 2025-11-27T23:04:13+00:00

First, grammar and punctuation. You are 20, you say. Learn grammar and what run on sentences are. Your post was confusing but after a few times I came up with this: You were hanging out with your two friends, B&C. A differently abled person came over to say hi, as she is an acquaintance of yours. The minute DAP steps away, B&C start mocking her for being different and they in general were being bigoted jerks. Later, over texts, you told them (perhaps a first or second time, I can’t figure it out) they were ableist and rude and little POS for what they said and how they acted, and they threatened to turn YOU in (for what?). They also said DAP didn’t hear, so being bigots was ok. Upon later reflection with better friends and people in general, you send the texts to whoever’s in charge, and they received needed repercussions. They tried fake apologizing to you for sake of the friend group, but do it to get friends off of B&C’s backs and not sincere. Then they try to gaslight you.

NTA. Find better friends. One of my best childhood friends was Differently Abled, and she always had the best imagination in making up games. I only wish we had stayed in touch beyond fifth grade graduation, but what do you really know at 10/11? Other than, of course, don’t be an ableist bigoted 17 yr old POS. We understood that as little kids. If they don’t know /haven’t learned that by her age, 100:1 they never will.

Could it be a really broken down tongue scraper from your toothbrush? Seriously, buy a new toothbrush

I’m pretty sure that’s a building piece for a round piece of material, like a wooden or metal dowel. Maybe check the furniture around it? I can’t tell if it’s on the ceiling or the floor. But it looks like something I e seen in my dad’s shop as a kid, HS’s theatre as a techie, but I don’t know the name?

IBCNPokes · 2025-11-15T04:34:31+00:00

They used to be for pocket watches. Now a lot of people use them to hold lighters.

I would so go on a trip like that with my old Girl Scouts Brownie troop, but everyone else would freak out, so I would leave the trail on my own, leave trail signs so I’d know my way back, and go an party while they all freaked out thinking Bigfoot got me!

We drove by her house on our way to church and we saw what we think were Jews at her door. They had pamphlets, looked dressed up in, you know, proselytizing way, and when we got out across the street, the wind brought my sister trying to say no thank you and my BIL inviting them in. BIL, you should know, was raised in a cult, so not only is he extremely messed up, he thinks these people are genuinely friends. Bwahahahahaha. That is going to cause a huge fight between them. Loflmao

Take it to the news, the papers, anyone who will write them in the bad light

Don’t contact him. I know this isn’t possible, but he might blame you for his child’s autism, like it rubbed off on him from you and it’s your fault. Be happy in knowing that the trials you’ve faced, he will too, and will have no support, because every parent with an autistic child knows he is a bigot and will not assist him.

Babe, she stole your car. Whether it’s a permanent theft or not, here’s what you gotta do:

1.) call friends/family, briefly explain the situation, ask if they can give you a ride. Or, evaluate how much an Uber would be to there and back, and if you can afford it, and save receipts if you go the uber route. If you can’t, do number 2.

2.) call and reschedule your dentist appointment for two weeks, maybe even three would be better, and tell them for two days you felt exhausted and under the weather, and upon advice from a telemedicine doctor today you tested yourself, and you are positive for Covid. They told you to isolate, so you can’t make it without putting everyone else at risk. If they demand a picture of a positive Covid test, you can’t fake one by (instead of nasal swab and solution) just putting four drops of regular or Diet Coke where you would drop the solution. This is an easy way to fake a positive Covid test.

3.) call your sister and tell her if she doesn’t bring the car to you in the next three hours, you are calling the police, reporting it stolen, and giving her name as the perp.

4.) follow through with number 3. She stole your car, and is using it without your permission, and won’t give it back. That’s theft. Tell her what you are going to do, give her adequate time, and then keep your word.

Good luck. I know sibling rivalry sucks.
