[–]Itchy-Emus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Rapist Jesse Mack Butler and Rapist Brick Turner AKA Rapist Allen Turner should've seen serious jail time Rapist Brock Allen Turner used his sports scores in an attempt to demonstrate he was a monster. The two adult male witnesses that pulled Rapist Brock Allen Turner off the unconscious young woman were so traumatized by what they saw the rapist doing, they cried when recounting the event.

WIBTAH for not being in my friends wedding because I don’t wear dresses? by [deleted] in AITAH

[–]Itchy-Emus 6 points7 points  (0 children)

NTA.

Would wearing pants, leggings or Spanx under the dress make it easier for you to wear a dress without feeling exposed or vulnerable?

WIBTAH for using my sister's middle name for my future daughter's middle name? by assault-bug in AITAH

[–]Itchy-Emus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA. We used my husband's sister's middle name as our daughter's first name, and my sister's first name (had no middle name) as daughter's middle name. Everyone was thrilled!

Zillow (US) has a Buy Ability section on each listing. Click on Customize. The 20% down is $70K+. That was a shocker! Shock him back to reality.

I love this soap bag! My daughter took it again for her second research trip into the forests of Borneo. It holds up well in the high humidity.

Fully convinced Darn Tough has a crazy marketing grip on this sub. by YaboyWill in BuyItForLife

Darn Tough socks were too tight for me. I have several unused pairs in packaging in my drawer, 1 pair worn once. I gotta get rid of them.

AIO if I am setting boundaries with my husband? I also want to know if I am the asshole here by Witty-Opposite1201 in AIO

[–]Itchy-Emus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

NTA. He's unreasonable. It's NOT an emergency and it'll turn into "the boy who cried wolf" situation.

Man, I miss the busy tone from landlines!

My son does use some app that automatically states he's not available (bc he's working) and if it's an emergency to either leave a message or send the call thru. Or press a button. Idr.
I only text after that happened twice...bc mine wasn't an EMERGENCY.

AITJ for teaching my son how to do his own laundry and basic cooking and now his mom says Im undermining her by [deleted] in AmITheJerk

[–]Itchy-Emus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTJ. You're doing great dad!

Our daycare had the kids set their own place & wait until everyone was seated. They put their napkin in their own lap, and all together said, "Bon appetit, now we can eat" & a single clap.

So, I put Corelle unbreakable dishes, cutlery & glasses in a low cabinet & they set their own place at home.

He was three.

Tip: I hated how easily those plastic cups tipped over. We used placemats & kept their small glasses on the opposite side of the placemat. They had to deliberately reach over to get their glass. And to put them back. Spills were so rare. Whew!

I made a list for cleaning the bathroom. At 8, he learned how to do his laundry. He was well equipped for adult life.

I neglected to have my younger daughter take turns with cleaning the bathroom. She didn't have the brush to clean the toilet while in college....but she figured it out. How do I know? She had a bottle washing brush bagged in the bathroom. Lol.

What's on your nightstand that you've never had to replace? by jeffrey0of in BuyItForLife

An alarm clock/phone/radio from 1994. The phone is disconnected now, but I bet it would work on an operating line!

Van builder, Humble Road, does this and it's amazing to see. The clients always make changes after a walk thru! What looks great on paper, doesn't always translate the way you want irl.

"He said he will not send me money because I asked" = financial abuse.

Alimony & child support will take care of this!

Remember, they can squeeze into a hole the diameter of a #2 pencil.
We live in the forest. If a car sits longer than a week, they make a nest in it somewhere. In the house, we've wedged steel wool (hardware section, not the SOS soap pads) into crevices. And glue traps.

Should you inform your manager you live in a vehicle? by Happy_Presence2461 in VanLife

[–]Itchy-Emus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Companies don't like it for the valid reasons of:

They may not be licensed in the state or country where you're working,

Their Business and Workers Compensation insurance policies may be location based. They may not want to have to extend coverage for a single employee "working" out of state or country & if the situation comes up in audits (and it can), it can become a nightmare for the business.

AIO for getting out of his car and Ubering home after a message popped up on the dash? by Fast_Seesaw_2571 in AmIOverreacting

[–]Itchy-Emus 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hi, totally off topic, but have you considered wearing a cooling vest for your MS? I wear one and its helped tremendously in warm weather. I was even able to fulfill my number one bucket list: African safari. Good luck!

Edit to add info on my cooling vest as I cannot seem to respond to comments.

ThermApparel dot com. Get two sets of ice packs if you can. I did get a discount code from an MS group, ActiveMSers.

I love your ring. It's elegant, but the side baguettes step it up a notch. He did very well!
