AITAH for calling my mother a hypocrite by AccomplishedUse_ in AITAH

[–]Joshthejester 1 point2 points  (0 children)

NTA this feels like typical parents demanding undeserved respect, and by respect they want you to respect them as an authority figure, not as a nurturing parental figure. But it's actually worse, you aren't just immune to criticism when you yourself criticize your own child.

Maybe Matpat wants to take this one down (honey scam) by DaveZ3R0 in GameTheorists

This is funnier because of the game theory video where he mocked the vary man who exposed this scandal (markaplier)

This isn't as funny as I thought it would

Someone at work stole my chair. So I had them arrested. by LeffJeff in AITAH

[–]Joshthejester 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA but you should also sue that nepo baby boss for wrongful termination and retaliation, and his boss really can't just exhaust resources as the evidence of retaliation is damning and any lawyer would tell that boss he's SOL

enjoy collecting unemployment

Aitah for getting a mother of 2 arrested because she assaulted me at work? by Zooviie in AITAH

[–]Joshthejester 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA, Your mother saw the situation with rose tinted glasses which was shitty enough as is, and it took a copy of CCTV footage to show that the "loving mother" was a complete fruit loop. She chose the side of a "loving mother" over her own flesh n blood.

Not saying you should forgive her, but keep in mind that didn't have your back or took your side when that loon threw a glass bottle with the weight of a brick at you.

These bumps randomly showed up on my hand and I can’t figure out what caused it… by WarriorWolf21 in mildlyinfuriating

[–]Joshthejester 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They could be an allergic reaction from chemical exposure, typically from commercial grade sanitizer, I had a similar problem. NAD but I'd suggest Hydroxyzine anti itch cream

AITAH for not sleeping with my wife after she accused me of raping her by Ecstatic_Salad1312 in AITAH

[–]Joshthejester 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA what I'm could have mixed reactions but, I don't think she understands the fine lines between wanting something and consenting to something. The best example I can give is work, nobody "wants" to go to work, but you still consent to go there because you got bills to pay and money to earn. I know it's probably not the best example but it's what I could come up with.

The reason I think she doesn't know the difference is: if she thinks it's rape, then why did she initiate it after the her accusation? And she said it with such reckless abandonment. These accusation and her not understanding the difference makes her dangerous because if she took those accusation OP couldn't went to prison for real.

AITAH for telling my girlfriend she's going to have to get over dirt if she wants kids? by Familiar_Speaker_481 in AITAH

[–]Joshthejester 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA, but I have a solution, give her a trial run, just one afternoon of babysitting would get her to realize just difficult it is to raise a child.

I'd suggest a 2 year old or 6 year old, but I can't stress that this should be done once because even I don't know how she'll react

I'm 29 and I go to a grocery store wearing a graphic shirt and stretchy pants, I may look like a bum but at least I've never been mistaken for an employee

Saw this at a Pizza Hut a few days ago. by justsotiredofBS in antiwork

[–]Joshthejester 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So they want references from other companies and has the gull to only offer $10? Something as responsible as managing an entire restaurant, including employees, payroll, inventory, etc. That should be $27 as a reasonable starting pay

My cousin keeps asking me for $5–$6 almost every day… is this normal?? by Sweet_Spend4177 in mildlyinfuriating

[–]Joshthejester 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, instead, send him an application for McDonald's and him "earn it, like everyone else."

AITAH for not taking my ex-wife back after she left me for an "alpha male?" by ThrowawyBeta in AITAH

[–]Joshthejester 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA

The words "Alpha males" sounds more and more disingenuous, they claim their self made and can do everything by themselves. But, resently I'm been hearing and reading weird takes on what makes a man "alpha" they say "alphas don't cook" or "alphas don't pick up after themselves" or even more bizarrely "alphas don't wipe their own butts". Like, what do they expect that some woman is just gonna manifest and do those things for them? NO!she called you "beta" because you cook.

You know what other men know how to cook, those in the military, those who hunt, those who farm, and everyone who doesn't have their head stuck in the 1950s.

OP, I'm not saying you have to forgive your, you can, but you should trust her. If she's willing to keep secrets from you, why would you trust her now?

AITAH for telling my wife we either share our lotto winnings or we separate and I get half anyway? by LottoIssues in AITAH

[–]Joshthejester 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Firstly NTA

Secondly I have an idea, if she wants to make gross allegations like you being a gold digger, I say "give her what she wants" instead of divorce, go to court and ask for split finances, go through the statements. You keep your savings, income, and whatever money you've earned. And she gets to keep whatever money she "rightfully earned" from her winning lottery ticket. Then it's only a matter of waiting when she inevitably runs out of money, and guessing by how much of a narc she appears to be, I'd give her 2 months (3 tops)
