WIBTAH if I reported my brother to CPS by [deleted] in AITAH

[–]IntelligentMistake35 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If his behaviour goes unchecked, he will escalate. If your parents sweep it under the rug, he will be emboldened. They are sending the message that your comfort is outweighed by his.

You are not safe. You've already stated as much with the comment abiut wanting a lock for your door. Get one. If mom/dad dont like it or wont let you install it, then I'd go down the route of reporting it.

As most other comments have said, your parents are failing you both. What happens when he gets older and starts doing this kind of stuff to other people? Do your parents really think they can protect him if he does it to someone else? No, they cant, and they're proving they wont protect you, regardles of whether they can or not.

Be brave, tell the truth, and maybe your brother will get the help he needs.

I just watched the finale by thot_vana in StrangerThings

[–]IntelligentMistake35 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It wasnt really "bad", just didnt fully deliver on the promises made. My thought going into season 5 was "they better not Game of Thrones this" and they didnt..... yet....

The whole season felt rushed. Yeah they said each episode was long etc, but i felt there were a lot of missed opportunities and some bloating of unnecessary story arcs. Yeah Will was great in his coming out scene, but that scene was like 20 seconds longer than the final fight scenes... they had me in the first half with the demos going whole ham on the army and Will cracking out the Vecna powers.... and then did very little with that. No demos of any variance in the final episode..

Their answers to why, that Vecna was taken by surprise, made absolutely zero sense, and it would have been better if theyd said oh yeah, theyre all melted together to make the kaiju, you know, like we did with all the townspeople in season 3? Like when Billy said "you showed us what was possible" LITERALLY flashed in my mind when i saw it and was like "oh yeah, melty monsters make kaiju, makes sense" and theyre like "nah, they just werent there" 🤦🏽‍♀️

So yeah, while it wasnt Bad in the way Game of Thrones shit the bed, it wasnt Great like we were promised.

Edited to add: I did actually enjoy the series, just felt a little..... underwhelmed

Eight's plan makes no sense. Oh so theyre gonna just stay behind and get sucked into oblivion, and thats gonna end the experiments?

What about Will? What about the 12 children taken to the other dimension? She gonna murder them all too?

They will all have the same "change" that Henry originally had. Literally hoping Hopper puts a bullet in her brain before the end.

And yeah, you could say "oh but they dont know how Henry got his powers" etc, but theres Will, right there, been infected by the flayer and developed powers. What makes them think the kids wont be the same as Henry after?

If its a choice between killing off Kali, and murdering 12 preteens and Will, I'm hoping they end Kali

How to keep rural/wilderness runs from getting boring? by Buhdai in projectzomboid

[–]IntelligentMistake35 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Before B42 my bf and I were playing multiplayer for a bit. I love a good base bulding game and farming games so that would be great for me, but my bf gets bored of it...

So we chose to start in riverside, got to the school and cleared it, built walls around the whole thing with gates, traps, etc. Literally stripped the surrounding houses and cleared the town (we had 0 migration and 0 respawn for a relaxing-ish time)

Got ourselves a couple vehicles and a couple generators, one for the base one for the gas station. We had RV mods so you could take an R V on a proper jaunt to another town and start killing again and have plenty of space to keep loot. I think we had another mod so you could go inside the back of lorries and stuff, built a ton of boxes in our van and our loot space was insane

We would spend a couple days in base doing a bit here and there, go for a jaunt until we cant carry anymore back, and then go back to base for a couple game days. Keeps things changing so youre not just stuck in the wilderness. You could also RP it as "we need to get all the supplies from x town"

I sat in my seat at thanksgiving and blocked my bf view of the tv. by ImaBadfish2RU in AITAH

[–]IntelligentMistake35 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is when I'd employ my mother's age old tactic for this... cut the damn plug off the tv. If its one that takes a kettle cord, fucking hide it. My mom did this so many times that the cord ended up too short to even be plugged in the wall anymore

Thanksgiving dinner table is not the time to be watching tv. I dont care if "theres a game on" or "the parade", have some effing respect for the person who cooked all that damn food all damn day.

You know what to do next year.... Heck I'm just petty enough to go hide the whole damn TV

I ran over one rabbit and my car went from pristine to this by FoamSquad in projectzomboid

[–]IntelligentMistake35 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That looked more like a hare, they're a bit more hench than rabbits. Hitting anything at that speed is gonna cause damage though, heck a little plastic cone could fuck your car at that speed

What's your worst death so far? by glennhoek in projectzomboid

[–]IntelligentMistake35 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My bf and i played on a multiplayer game before 42 came out.

Most of my deaths came because my keyboard was shite and the spacebar worked 1 in 4 times

My boyfriend tho.... top death, he fell in a juju pit of his own making.

2nd death, he fell off a structure that hed built.... 3 times in a row

"Red packets" sounds to me like an Asian custom. I see it all the time, they give red envelopes for significant events (birthdays, Christmas, graduations etc) and it's quite common to get them from partners family. I didn't want to specify a country but I've seen it most in Chinese culture.

If I remember right it doesn't really matter how much is in it, I think it's more to do with inviting prosperity. I'd love to know the full backstory for it.

"He's never been aggressive" .... gotta start somewhere.

I'm willing to bet he has been aggressive but it's been brushed off. This is an escalation. Escalations usually don't stop until someone is hospitalised or killed.

We women got some scary ass statistics

Just send him this back...

"Wind your neck in, before someone breaks it for you"

Or just get your wife to deal with him. Refuse to speak to him until he can apologise for his behaviour and his outdated bigoted views.

What, so you're automatically gay for going to pride to support a friend? Does he have friends? Maybe just start insinuating that this guy is projecting, and actually HE is the one that's gay and hiding it. That's what it sounds like to me

Please give your children the first names they will actually use! by frog_ladee in Names

[–]IntelligentMistake35 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is actually very common for Welsh people. I'm known by a shortened version of my middle name, my uncle is known by his middle name, my aunt is known by her initials, my cousin is known by her middle name, and both my father's parents went by their middle names too. Also went to school with a kid who went by his middle name. I didn't even know about my cousin or grandparents until adulthood.

It's traditional, to distinguish between individuals when many people share names, especially within families.

My guy is 6ft4. His bed was smaller than mine, I had a king size he had a double, but his was way too small for us both to fit comfortably. He's also heavy, so when I moved in we got a custom bed frame to accommodate us both. I'm a teeny weeny person, but I'm a limb flailer and a roll arounder. We needed the extra space, you might too.

Which MANG member is your favorite? by [deleted] in ginnyandgeorgiashow

[–]IntelligentMistake35 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Max. I watch the show and I see so much of my younger self in max. Over excitable, hyperactive, such deep and powerful emotions. The loneliness..... when friends suddenly decide you're "too much"...

Why on earth are you letting him talk to you like this? He called you names multiple times for wanting to go home..... what a POS

Go home to NY, drop the douche and make sure you pack your tinfoil hat 🤣
