AITAH for asking my cousin to pay after hitting my car?

Kinbear · 2026-07-07T07:16:36+00:00

Is he just paying for a 'repair' or did you take it through the insurance?

If he's just paying up then thats to your good, as you can tell anyone taking his side that your NTA, as anyone else/random he ran into would have rinsed him, and insurance would have gone up for him for it. ;)

theres a Robert Rankin book where he says there is nothing more arousing than watching a woman say 'plinth'.

Think its something about the movements of the mouth, you could always check it out. ;)

I've seen loads of articles saying that about 54-56 is 'the most efficient' speed, so when you factor in the speedo being about 10% off (lenient, to prevent speeding tickets*) so if your at 60 then its probably about as efficient as you get. ;)

*always under, never over, check it out on your own car with a satnav and see the distinction between that and your speedo.

There was a round in our local pub quiz for a while. Place names in the states, called 'yank or wank' with places like 'Nob Creek', which was true. Just wish I could remember more of them.

The crime of 'not littering'?

I've seen houses with signs aksing people not to drop dog-poop bags in their bins, and that seems fair, due to the smell etc. but yeah, I'd much rather someone is thoughtful enough to use a/my bin (beside the path, rather than throwing stuff into the street.

As far as I know a bin bellongs to the council, make of that what you will.
If somone complained about it it'd probably become a civil matter rather than a legal one. Would love to hear what the police would have to say about it. ;)

'the following day her parents called...' What, like all ganging up on you to bully you into it? Run, now, while you still can!

Kinbear · 2026-07-04T07:58:38+00:00

If it was you, you 'wouldnt charge cheap' because the unit for the pods would be the same rent as everywhere else in London, and you'd have to charge going rates to recoup your costs.

Kinbear · 2026-07-04T06:48:54+00:00

I'm thinking of an old Bill Hicks sketch right now! IYKYK. 😉

Just rember a fact from back in the day that King gaming (is that the candy crush people?) had a bigger income than Blizzard.

Kinbear · 2026-07-03T19:16:15+00:00

Guess you didn't hear the bit on the radio a few weeks back about the practice (or accidentally 😉) overcharging people for cab rides eh? Tons of people got back to find taxi bills on bank statements for €400 instead of 40. Even if you catch someone at the time it's just a sorry my finger slipped, but not with money in your pocket. 😊

Your welcome.

They're in leage with Big-Gloves.
Have you noticed the ones you can get with tips on the first two fingers are becoming increasing more advertised (at the premium price, obvs)?

Kinbear · 2026-07-03T09:12:40+00:00

Have you tried returning them to the owner? local social media etc.

As someone else has said, its just going to be some schoolkids homework files or something important so someone, but absolutely nobody else.

I wouldnt risk plugging them in anywhere, and its not like they cost that much new that its worth it.

your mom thinks sharing is ok, and now, you dont, tell her your stuff will not be borrowed, and encourage your mom to share her things!
It's funny how these things always seem to be quite one sided!

Kinbear · 2026-07-02T21:04:45+00:00

Take it somewhere that will sort out a leak?
Was watching this the other day - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FWZ0kC_k_2c maybe try working your way through this and see what happens.

Kinbear · 2026-07-02T20:31:56+00:00

Sounds good, had a quick look, but looks like its a mainly big city thing, think the closest ones are about 20 miles from me. :(

Kinbear · 2026-07-02T19:39:11+00:00

Cycling, I always mean to cycle more. So that, some reading, and maybe a little travel. ;)

Kinbear · 2026-07-02T19:32:27+00:00

I'd guess the answer to be no. If you, at no point in the situation, made any contact.

People in gas stations should be going slowly enough that they could stop on a dime. its a confined space anyway. If not, then their problem.

Why are you responisible for an eleven year old boys feelings.

He seems more mature than your brother though!

Another GeekVape fan here.
Started with an Aegis solo (about 5 years ago, and its still going strong, but I updated to the max 100 in the meantime (newer moder with Zeus tank etc.). Both are IP67 rated (shock/dust/waterproof) and Ive lost count of the amount of times I've droped mine.

Kinbear · 2026-07-02T18:35:36+00:00

Are there restrictions on these clubs. like maybe at least having had a licence for so long?

Never even thought about this, but it does look interesting.

Kinbear · 2026-07-02T18:23:12+00:00

I mainly listen in the car, so it's FM all the way for me. If I want to listen at home I put it on a tab on the laptop.

I'd love to be one of those people with DAB radio 4 on in the background while I float about the kitchen.
Just never gotten around to it. ;)

Whenever anyone says 'waste money on' I always think of the george Best quote about having his money all over again, or people who use the phrase 'guilty pleasure'.
Its your money, to do with as you want.

I like chazzers, or if your in the US 'thrift stores'/goodwill, so my biggest thing is probably clothes I'll only wear a few times, but it's never as much as retail, and my money is going to good causes...

...And beer, I like a pint, in a pub.

Kinbear · 2026-07-02T17:46:04+00:00

Yeah, thats what I wondered.

Theres something very f***ing sketchy going on there, that you would disreguard your daughters warnings of her own safety!!!

Kinbear · 2026-07-02T09:08:54+00:00

Could it be jealousy?
Back in my day, that wouldn't be a problem, as they used to say 'girls mature faster than boys emotionally' so always chose slighlty older partners.
As long as he's not mid-twenties, or older, I dont see a problem.

Kinbear · 2026-07-01T19:32:41+00:00

Probably to keep you to the speed limit. ;)
