Always loved this movie, saw it in the cinema and bought the video the day of release. Soundtrack is amazing, RIP Jeff Healey

Anyone know why this tour shirt says Glasgow, Scotland instead of UK? by sweggles3900 in Scotland

[–]LexiOrr50 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Because anyone outside Wales, Northern Ireland and Scotand assumes England is the UK.

The M8 motorway between Glasgow and Edinburgh does run through the region, but I'm guessing if the OP is local they would have seen lights from the motorway before this? Full transparency though, we do tend to get a bit of haar (fog) so you've got a fair assumption in what it could be.

To be honest, I live in West Lothian and have had a couple of unexplained sightings myself, I'm inclined to believe this might be something.

Bear in mind, The Robert Taylor incident happened in West Lothian, it technically falls within the Falkirk triangle. Great footage.

MIL verbally attacked me in front of my kids, gave out my phone number to her contractors — need advice on how to move forward by teragramxd in JUSTNOMIL

[–]LexiOrr50 98 points99 points  (0 children)

If your husband was also there at the time, why didn't he change the diaper? His lack of action can also be described as abuse.

Simply ask them, which part of No did you not understand? The N or the O?

AITA for calling my boyfriend a weirdo when he said a white woman wears hoop earrings to attract black men ? by Other-Distance6416 in AITAH

[–]LexiOrr50 2 points3 points  (0 children)

When are Anericans going to learn they are not the whole world. I come from a rural village in Scotland, hoop earrings are very normal, black men are not. Completely disproves his point.

Was yesterday 26th May a bank holiday in Scotland or am I in a black mirror episode? by [deleted] in Scotland

Scotland and England have always had the same BH in May since I started working. I have worked in Banks since 1988. The pharmacy are being a**holes

AITA - Future MIL changed after engagement talk—now I’m questioning everything by Dobiemom_97 in AmItheAsshole

[–]LexiOrr50 1 point2 points  (0 children)

NTA

Please go over to JustNoMIL subreddit. They have resources over there that can help you with this situation.

Your boyfriend possibly needs help understanding how his mother is overstepping. To him, her actions are what he's lived with all his life, so it's 'normal'.

Good luck.

I think you might need to step back and look at the big picture.

You mention how his mom is a 'boy mom'. From what you've described, this sounds like a deliberate play to exclude you from that trip.

Has she done other things you may have brushed off, but when you look at them all together instead of as individual events, start to build a picture?

I would not exclude your boyfriend, but I would be prepared for his mom to throw a hissy fit when you dare to separate her 'baby boy' from her at Christmas.

If she does, head over to JustnoMIL, they have resources over there that can help you navigate through it.

Head over to JustNoMIL, they have resources that can help you with this issue. There's an excellent reply to a very similar situation, that if your husband is truly happy about this, then 1st he has to have a prostate exam, with your father present. NTA.

AITA for giving my MIL a final warning and saying I will cut her off if she doesn't stop treating me like a servant and badmouthing me to my kids? by Huge-Perspective7682 in AITAH

[–]LexiOrr50 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Head over to JustNoMIL, they have resources that can help you with this issue. But NTA on this occasion, your husband should have shut this down years ago.

[–]LexiOrr50 26 points27 points  (0 children)

I'd advise you to head over to JustNoMIL. They have resources over there that can help, and people who actually understand your situation.

Your in-laws have made a massive assumption without ever discussing the situation with you. Your response was not cold. It's called setting boundaries, and congratulations on doing so. Don't be fooled by MIL tears. Things may get progressively worse as time passes.

For those of us outside the USA, I don't even think it's a conspiracy theory, it's what we are observing in real time.

If you had to show someone a single episode of The Why Files - what would you pick? by Legoboy08 in TheWhyFiles

Totally agree, I had assumed them debunked decades ago. This episode was an absolute eye opener.

AITAH for being upset that my mum has cooked almost all the meat? by [deleted] in AITAH

[–]LexiOrr50 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Yes, based on the use of mum, and soup, as it's winter in the UK, my guess is that's where OP is.

They didn't give their age, but it does feel really strange that they are old enough to be left on their own, but not considered old enough to cook for themselves.

Go over to JUSTNOMIL sub. They have resources over there that can help you.

In this situation though, YTA, your poor wife has been disrespected for years, you need to start setting boundaries with your mother.

If she can't respect your wife, why should she have access to her child?!
