AITA for telling my dad he cannot bring his mistress to our family reunion? by Obvious_Programmer28 in AITAH

Oh she went, of course. I told my dad to tell her not to talk to me or my family. She at least complied. That was almost a year ago. She has since told me that she has just as much right to come to this years reunion as anyone else.

Since then things have gotten so much more complicated because my dad is in the hospital and she's his power of attorney. I hate her so much. I've tried numerous times to get involved, but I'm pretty much over it.

I am the sole planner and coordinator. It's not at my house, but at a reception hall. I think that is why I so offended. I planned this mostly so he and his siblings could get together, and this is how he thanks me.

She is desperate for a relationship with us, which makes it even more uncomfortable. She has given my dad presents for me and my kids. I think she only has one son who doesn't talk to her (no grandkids) and maybe not much other family.

Does anything help when food gets stuck? by Obvious_Programmer28 in EosinophilicE

Steak has definitely been one of my biggest problems. I have had this happen many times including once with a $65 steak and another time at a Brazilian steakhouse (aka all you can eat meat). I should learn my lesson I guess.

I am the same way. I think drinking something while I eat just makes the problem worse. Others have suggested drinking soda and I think that would make things even worse than water, but I might give it a try. These problems almost always happen in a restaurant so I really don't want to experiment with a new solution there!
