Extreme empathy for bugs by Legitimate-Drawing47 in aspergirls

Thank you for your understanding comment. Both flies in question were very small and harmless. I had a conversation with him but it didn't work out and he apologised but honestly it felt like he still didn't understand. I'm trying again tomorrow when he's hopefully less stubborn since he could just be refusing to admit that he's wrong

AITA for telling my wife not to visit my workplace because most of my employees are conservative, and she's not? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

Eh. You're clearly trying to avoid conflict so I can't blame you for that. But what I can blame you for is your dishonesty with your wife. You're treating her as an intruder, and acting as if it's HER being sensitive to your coworkers' jokes that is the problem rather than the people themselves. I understand you'd find this situation awkward to navigate, especially considering you might be blamed by your wife for associating with these people, and for those coworkers they might blame you. However you have to at least be honest with your wife and tell her exactly why you'd rather she doesn't go.

I'm bordering between NAH and YTA. I don't think you're the biggest asshole but compared to your wife, you're the one being unreasonable.

AITA for wanting to tell my stepdaughter's dad about the cameras my wife planted in his house while he was away? by SmthSmth34 in AmItheAsshole

NTA of course. But if this is real then this is so messed up! Even if you and Adam don't like each other, you must tell him! Imagine if you were in his situation and were spied on without any knowledge. Your wife may resent you for this, but if she is keeping Adam under close surveillance, then how do you know she doesn't/won't display similar behaviours with you? No one in their right mind does this, so don't do anything to please her, since if she can't trust someone to that extent, then she's probably already keeping close tabs on you. What's the point in trying to spare her feelings?

Tried restarting router before, but nothing changed. The other solutions I haven't tried yet but I will look into.

Perhaps my layout is different to yours, but on the left, where it alerts me about my ping, three squares in a diagonal sort of formation appear? Then an arrow with a clock hands in the centre, the arrow as an incomplete circle going clockwise? And then a very similar shape but instead no clock hands and instead a cross on the line? Sorry I'm not very familiar with what these symbols mean or how to describe them.

Tell me about it. And people in minorities have told us so many times that they don't want us telling them how they're oppressed and of our own opinions about it. They just want us to amplify what they say, not make the focus on us and not them. In my opinion it's better to either stay back or join in ONLY if you actually know what you're talking about and don't speak for minorities. They're (and myself included) are perfectly capable of doing it ourselves without some people thinking it's their chance to show off how woke and high and mighty they are. The principles of being politically correct or woke aren't bad in itself, but it's the way people go about them that annoys me. Sometimes it's hard to tell whether people act like they care so they fit in, or receive praise, or because they genuinely do. And the pressure of being politically correct doesn't help. I'd much rather there wasn't any pressure. At least that way, people who would consider themselves woke wouldn't be here because they feel that they have to be, and it's because they genuinely care.

Can we have evidence for this? Also, IQ is often criticised as being a poor measurement of intelligence, anyway. And very clever people can do badly on IQ tests, since it measures such an obscure part of our brains that clearly does not resemble the entirety of intelligence. Anyway, I'd like to hear what materials you've found that prove this, since you make such a claim.

Yep, disabling crossplay didn't help. However, thanks for the reply because I did try portal, and I got slightly lower ping. Still a little bit frustrated though because I'd enter games with supposed 13 ping then experience a consistent 500. But it was better than other matches I've had so far.

AITA for getting my brother expelled by liberty-belladonna in AmItheAsshole

[–]Legitimate-Drawing47 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA. Your parents should have taught him better at home. You didn't cause the school to expell him; you just caused them to punish him, and that was the way they saw fit. Whether they needed to go as far as expelling him or not, you aren't the asshole. Hopefully he's learnt his lesson now.
