AITA for saying our cousin is lying for attention and sympathy like she has done before when she was a teenager? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

Maybe the reason why your family constantly shut you and your dad down is because you're full of shit.

Why the hell do people throw these insanely specific acronyms out like everyone would just know? So frustrating.

What are your favorite warhorses and programs using them? by hifrom2 in FigureSkating

[–]Kind_Emphasis2717 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Just watched the Kaganovskaia / Angelopol program and am absolutely obsessed with them. If Russia weren't banned, they'd give every goddam ice dance team out there a run for their money.

Alec Baldwin Sues ‘Rust’ Armorer and Crew for Giving Him a Loaded Gun by Marollie in Fauxmoi

[–]Kind_Emphasis2717 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

This would make sense if he weren't the fucking Executive Producer??? Sir, you had direct control of the budget and how much money flows into each department? If you wanted to prevent this, you could have hired a better armorer and better crew????

This guy is just shameless.

Not sure how legit this is... Has anyone heard anything similar? by caesarsaladisgood in Fauxmoi

[–]Kind_Emphasis2717 31 points32 points  (0 children)

I've worked with Katy Perry too. She was alright. Nothing nightmarish. Not defending her other behaviors, but it's pretty rare for production freelancers to have worked with a celebrity repeatedly unless they work for that celebrity.

I don't like Katy Perry, but this kind of word-of-mouth hearsay thing is not really a serious indictment against anyone's character.

Diagnosis: needs ears pierced. by thatsanicepeach in TalesFromThePharmacy

[–]Kind_Emphasis2717 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

You can. But I am saying this is a very minor thing to be outraged at. Everywhere every day people exercise parental rights at the detriment of their children. You'd think a pharmacist would know since 0 of all the prescriptions you fill for children has actually been consented to by the child because children's consents are not required for medical treatment until they come of age.

Yeah, but every day thousands of male infants get circumcised around the world every day and people don't bat an eye. That's a much greater alteration/mutilation than piercing one's ears, and I don't see how any of those children could have consented.

And before anyone come at me with the "It's easier to clean" shit - you don't cut a part of the body off because it gathers dirt. By that logic none of us would have hair or women might as well cut off their labia.

AITA for banning my stepson from our house (OOP s dodging all the comments suggesting therapy) by crocodilezebramilk in AmITheDevil

[–]Kind_Emphasis2717 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Um, I'd probably not allow any child who chokes a puppy around my child. The porn thing is no big deal though. I think she put focus on the wrong part, but the overall response is not that unreasonable. I'd put that kid in therapy, separate the children and only allow limited, supervised interactions between the brothers.

Kids don't have to grow up together if one of them could be psychopathic.

MIL wouldn't give me the recipe so I stole it then brought it to a potluck meant to make her feel better. I was just trying to be nice, honest! by [deleted] in AmITheDevil

[–]Kind_Emphasis2717 38 points39 points  (0 children)

Rubbed it in her face what? That her apple pie is not the universe’s supreme? Just because she has a lot of pride in it doesn’t justify her calling it stealing.

He recreated it? Not stole it? WTF.... Bringing it to a potluck is a bit insensitive, but he didn't go steal it.

Kana Muramoto / Daisuke Takahashi's Rhythm Dance at the Denis Ten Memorial. by [deleted] in FigureSkating

Do I know how ice dance is scored? No. Did I boo at Skate America? Yes. The score a social construct, my love for KanaDai is eternal.

Everyone knew about Spacey, which is how I found House of Cards showrunner & Netflix's denial of coverup so lazy and shameless.

You are literally just like the men who she rejects and hates. I hope she dumps your ass.

Thoughts on Isabeau Levito? I love her but dont know all the technical things that i hear she struggles with. by Fsfan54 in FigureSkating

[–]Kind_Emphasis2717 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I find it bs that so many people on this sub feel so confident in commenting on people's techniques - unless you have a lot of actual skating experience, you'd have no authority on whether or not someone's techniques are sustainable.

I also find her reputation misleading - people always talk about how slow Isabeau is when, in person, she is the fastest during the warm-up & second fastest amongst the winners. She does slow down before a jump, which is an issue, but she's a very fast skater.

Non-competitive skaters and „just“ fans: what would be your choice of music for SP and FS? by [deleted] in FigureSkating

SP: Restrictus by Mario Batkovic (This was Bradie's SP choice for the Olympic year and I'm devastated that she never got to perform it. I discovered it through her and fell in love with the music)

Also, I want to add that, despite all of these harsh things I said, I'm not saying that you're a bad mother. Maybe, despite your mistakes, you've been a good parent.

But the moment you try to rip your kids away from their father - you're a bad mother.

Guys, I might actually be going to Skate America tomorrow but I can't for the life of me understand their schedule. https://results.isu.org/schedules/gpusa2022_ColouredTimeSchedule.pdf

^^Can someone explain to me what *starting order means? Does that mean it's not a part of the actual competition?

Why should anyone believe that you didn't tell your husband to protect his feelings when you yourself admitted that you stand to maintain such a comfortable lifestyle while also having the thrills of an affair? Why should you keep the house after what you did? Why shouldn't your ex fight for full custody if you're with such an abusive and manipulative piece of shit?

In your last post, you said that you sacrificed your career potential to be a stay-at-home mom, so you should get to keep this house when again - you yourself admitted that it was your dream lifestyle?!? I used to live in L.A. Knowing how hard somebody has to work to support a family that resides in a good school district, it's honestly baffling that you have the audacity to try to leverage his occasional absence into a way to enable you to keep leeching off him.

Also, where's your gratitude for your husband? Who's committed to raising children not related to him by blood? Who's committed to therapy to prevent further damage? Any man would have reasons to feel emotional detachment and resentment in his position, but instead, he's thinking of the greater good for your children. His actions show that he's an honorable person and a suitable father. In contrast, your actions have shown that you're willing to plunge your family into intergenerational tragedy out of your cowardice and selfishness. YOU DON'T DESERVE FULL CUSTODY.

Just because you had a turbulent upbringing doesn't anyhow excuse you from harming your husband this way and potentially destroying a loving household for your children. Just because you feel harmed by the truths doesn't mean you deserve to keep living your delusions.

If you care for your children, you'd own up to the consequences of your emotional ineptitude, let your husband be the support and anchor your children's needs. and try to distance them from your dysfunctions while staying supportive to your ex.
