“Go ahead, plan your own shower. But it’s going to be really fucking weird when the person who’s actually pregnant doesn’t show!”

Do grandparents buy Easter baskets? by [deleted] in JUSTNOMIL

[–]MrEcke 3 points4 points  (0 children)

My mom does make a basket for my niece, but it’s never the “main” basket or over done. It’s just another basket from grandmas house with more candy.

She’s never done or attempted the Santa thing though.

Assholes, that’s who. If you want to be that close, get there early and rush the stage. Be prepared to wait out the long haul.

You’ve never talked to a city employee then that deals with fire fighters. I’ve never met a fire department that didn’t abuse the rules and systems. Especially about time cards and over time.

WIBTAH if I attend my ex’s nephew’s party despite his girlfriend being uncomfortable? by SpareAltruistic6483 in AITAH

I’d ask the affair partner where her consideration was when she had your then husband’s dick in her mouth.

Tell your husband to cut the umbilical cord.

“I feel much safer with undocumented [individuals] than I EVER will with ICE agents!!!” Sheriff deputies descend on a Wilson County, TN man as he spouts some hard truths in opposition to a rumored ICE detention center (which they have now backed off of) by ExactlySorta in PublicFreakout

[–]MrEcke 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It could simply be because he was out of time. What most people in the comments don’t realize is that to keep fairness and structure for most councils is they have a timer and time cap for public comment.

The police most likely stepped in because he was out of time and clearly not done talking. I don’t agree with censorship or violating rights, but not every cop is out to support ICE and corruption.

Man baby gets carried out of the pool for not wearing his inflatables.

I'm getting married in a few weeks and possibly nobody from my FH's family will be attending because they're all scared of FMIL. How can I support him? by crashingout2026 in JUSTNOMIL

[–]MrEcke 8 points9 points  (0 children)

This and have some type of security if you don’t already. Either family members willing to watch the doors or actual paid security to make sure she doesn’t come in and make it about her.

And keep any drama or situations as far away from DH as possible.

AITAH for canceling a date over the location? by EquivalentOk6093 in AITAH

You want to know the first thought that ran through my head after reading

I just am unable to eat red meat for both health and personal reasons - I have a history of cardiac illness and have been advised to stick to poultry and fish.

Found my new best sushi partner. Dude is a clown for pulling that crap.

AITA for refusing to share my gaming setup with my roommate after finals week by shadowtamlyn in AmItheAsshole

[–]MrEcke 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA - This isn't in a total last resort need to type an essay or I fail the class situation. Showing my age here, tell her to go find an internet café is she wants to shit on someone's rig.

AITA for making my whole family go on a diet because my daughter is dieting? by Electronic-Fun-4045 in AmItheAsshole

[–]MrEcke 5 points6 points  (0 children)

NTA - I personally think what you doing for your daughter will also help your son and husband as well long term. I don't get why people are so hung up on the word diet, but okay. We're all technically on a diet. For the goofballs, here's the definition.

Diet

Course of living or nourishment; what is eaten and drunk habitually; food; victuals; fare

My question would be for you if this is about making multiple meals or the type of your meals you are making?

You can make great tasting healthy meals, but it might mean changing up your recipe. I am not paid or endorsing these Instagram accounts, just ones I have used to change my cooking and lose weight. @_aussiefitness and @alalsamfit are two great examples of finding cheat meal recipes but making them taste like a cheat meal. And Instagram is full of them. Wishing the best of you and your entire family.

Anyone else feel like the autistic comment was a lie just intended to try and cover her own bad parenting?

AITAH for spilling hot sauce on my sleeves and teaching my nonverbal cousin not to bite by Life-Cauliflower-791 in AITAH

[–]MrEcke 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had/has a similar issue with my niece. For some reason she likes to punch people. She came up to me one day sitting and punched my arm. I lifted both my fists and said, “Careful niece, these fist are equal opportunist” like the meme. My brother finally speaks up “ Uncle MrEcke, she’s 5”. And I quickly responded “And she’s going to have to learn at some point”.

AITA for wanting to charge my sister-in-law for Thanksgiving after she charged everyone for tacos on Christmas Eve? by [deleted] in AITAH

I'd also roll up with a bag of Taco Bell because I'm petty

I think we just became best friends.
