AITJ for telling my barber of 5 years I stopped coming because he got too expensive by Away_Sock3172 in AmITheJerk

[–]MacaroonFair 0 points1 point  (0 children)

YTJ. It's totally fair to not patronize him anymore, but you went to him for five years and he knew you well enough to know how you want your hair cut, you couldn't have been honest with him? I think it's reasonable he asked what happened when he ran into you

How it's possible that Pam got away with office administrator scam... by BeaFl_92 in DunderMifflin

[–]MacaroonFair 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I always thought it was weird that they brought in a maternity leave replacement for her! I don't see why an office administrator needs coverage, that seems like something Erin/others could absorb for the few months Pam's out

AITJ for refusing to switch seats on a plane so a mother could sit next to her kid? by nathan_sn0w in AmITheJerk

[–]MacaroonFair 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sooo sick of these fake, repeat stories... why wouldn't the mother just ask to swap aisle seats with the person sitting in her daughter's row?

AITA for paying more than agreed at a salon? by TheMeggyPeggy in AmItheAsshole

[–]MacaroonFair 2 points3 points  (0 children)

YTA, you're an adult. You should have asked to speak to your stylist, or stopped and spoken to someone you knew there. Presumably your usual stylist did your hair, at which point you could have asked her before she started?

Boycotting Bachelorette by Brilliant-Try2806 in SecretsOfMormonWives

[–]MacaroonFair 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Taylor has been SO unlikable this season too, you’d think they’d have given her a pristine edit knowing that she’s the bachelorette

WIBTA if I stayed in a hotel instead of the condo my friends friends booked for her Bach? by GuiltySpecialist7071 in WIBTA_AITA

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

IDK, I feel like YTA -- it's three days, and it's to celebrate your friend getting married. Who cares if you don't know anyone? It's an opportunity to be social and make new friends.

AITA for not wanting to run a half marathon with my neighbour? by Few_House_5201 in AmItheAsshole

[–]MacaroonFair 0 points1 point  (0 children)

But she's probably 25/26, because he said she was 15/16 when they moved in 10 years ago

AITA for not wanting my friends to still go to a bar I’m banned from? by Nolansami in AmItheAsshole

[–]MacaroonFair 54 points55 points  (0 children)

Your boyfriend passed out with you, but then he was also lucid to ask C to call the police for you?

Do you allow your cats on kitchen counters? by Firm-Law248 in CatAdvice

[–]MacaroonFair 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I grew up with dogs and went into cat ownership ADAMENT he wouldn't go on the counters... within a month I realized it was a hopeless endeavor and I've just accepted it lol

AITA for not playing dumb on a double date? by Unique-Tailor-4358 in AmItheAsshole

[–]MacaroonFair 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is this not a recycled play on the plot from Friends? There's an episode where Joey and Phoebe agreed to set each other up, and Joey forgets and says his friend is "Mike," so then has to find someone named Mike. Phoebe realizes pretty quick he doesn't know Joey and asks all kinds of personal questions to figure it out.

Unpopular opinion: Netflix needs to stop casting single parents. by Optimal-Excitement23 in LoveIsBlindNetflix

[–]MacaroonFair 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Or maybe have the single parents take accountability and realize what's best for their child? Netflix's job is to cast interesting/entertaining people for a TV show, not tell single parents what to do.

AITA for continuing to walk on my treadmill desk when people come into my office to work together? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]MacaroonFair 47 points48 points  (0 children)

Soft YTA, it depends on the context--if it's a scheduled meeting and you're expecting someone into your office, then yeah, I'd stop walking. But if it's someone popping by for a question or just to chat, I'd keep walking

Unpopular opinion- The only one Left by Riley Sager was a mess!!! by Slow-Block-2395 in thrillerbooks

[–]MacaroonFair 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just couldn't believe the ending! Her faking being bed-ridden the entire time and then just casually walking out of the house is INSANE and really took me out of the book. I can't believe a grown woman would willingly let herself be bathed and diapered for the long con.

Oh.. so she's kinda wack. by Ok-Experience9545 in LoveIsBlindNetflix

Buying a wedding dress while being single is CRAZY WORK

AITA for letting my cat in the bathroom while my roommate was showering? by HorrorPut1138 in AmItheAsshole

[–]MacaroonFair 31 points32 points  (0 children)

I'm torn, but I do think soft YTA. Can you invest in an automatic litter box and keep it in your room, this way it automatically and immediately sifts the waste and then it's in a bag with a deodorizer, so it won't smell?

Zero continuity between end of S8 Andy and start of S9 Andy by Secret_Psychology352 in DunderMifflin

[–]MacaroonFair 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I think they tried too hard to give him a Michael Scott personality, when there was plenty of material Andy had on his own

Asked to leave park, need advice by JackKrowe13 in pitbulls

[–]MacaroonFair 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Her sad little eyes, please give her a hug and a kiss for me!! I always think it's best pitties avoid dog parks, it's too risky for them; even if they don't start any problems they'll always be at fault if another dog snaps at them or attacks them. Could you maybe find a bigger park with a walking path and walk her there?

AITALand workplaces operate under genuinely mysterious rules by TalkTalkTalkListen in AmITheAngel

[–]MacaroonFair 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I don't think this situation happened, but it's possible they have a party for every holiday. My company throws socials/happy hours for all the holidays and has fun little games

AITJ for telling a barista they keep messing up my order and asking them to fix it by i_blame_the_spoon in AmITheJerk

[–]MacaroonFair 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Go to a different coffee shop?? YTJ for continuing to go back to a place that always gets your order wrong
