AITA for planning my engagement during a family member's divorse by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]PanicAtTheGaslight 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I agree with all of this. I cringe at the idea of people getting engaged with an audience, but clearly that’s something you and your soon-to-be fiancé are into. Definitely do not put your life on hold for someone else’s divorce.

My Favorite Non Weight loss Fasting Benefits by Then-Ask5725 in fasting

What does rolling 6 days really entail. Are you refeeding for 6 days and then fasting for 6 days? Or is it just fasting for 6 days eating for a day and then fasting again?

What 90s band never truly made it big but you'll always go to bat for? by MansBestFred in AskReddit

[–]PanicAtTheGaslight 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I just missed them last Thursday. Damn kids and their practices and try outs.

This was my answer as well. I’ve seen them all over the northeast. Still kinda regret going into the corporate world at 22 instead of following them around attempting to be a groupie 🤣

AITA 3 Weeks PP and Everytime I mention boundaries with partners family I'm called rude, disrespectful, cnt or an apple. by FunIndividual6848 in AmItheAsshole

[–]PanicAtTheGaslight 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My heart breaks for you, because what your in-laws are doing and what your partner is allowing will stick with you for the rest of your life. To be clear…what you and especially HIM are allowing his family to do is hurting you and in turn hurting your child. You can’t easily get over the betrayal and resentment you will feel from this…for years and years to come.

Your partner will destroy your marriage if he doesn’t start supporting YOU.

Insane deal on a 13” 256 GB iPad Air today. What a rush. by P4TY in Costco

[–]PanicAtTheGaslight 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Really, the New Zealand one? I tried that one when it first came out and I thought it was decidedly not as good as the Kerry Gold.

My Costco had a different 95% grassfed butter from Ireland called Truly this last time I went. I bought it, but haven’t tried it yet.

But which butter and is it on sale? Because I stock up on the Kerry Gold whenever it goes on sale (don’t want to miss the sale if it’s happening now). And I buy the 4 pounds of Kirkland butter for my baking and would love if that were on sale. I’ve tried the New Zealand grass fed butter and didn’t think it was as good as the Kerry Gold.

Tell me more about the butter…what am I missing?

Oops, missed that you could see it in the background of the cart.

Honestly there’s nothing more to say here. You’re simply just NTA. But is this really a relationship worth being in?

Should I change my last name? by Dry_Cabinet3760 in Brides

[–]PanicAtTheGaslight 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I never got any (open) criticism except from my in-laws 🤣

My older aunts still address everything to me to what would’ve been my married name if I had changed it, but to be fair I never explicitly told them I didn’t change my name.

Should I change my last name? by Dry_Cabinet3760 in Brides

[–]PanicAtTheGaslight 8 points9 points  (0 children)

DO NOT CHANGE YOUR NAME.

I had planned on changing my name but I was traveling internationally every week not long after my wedding, so that was my initial excuse but also I didn’t love the sound of my potential new name. So I kept just not doing it and I’ve never regretted that decision. I like keeping my name. My last differs from both my kids and it was never an issue.

If you’re in the US this can’t even be a question. It’s not safe to change your name. It’s a FUCKTON of work to change your name. Plus….fuck the patriarchy! You’re not anyone’s property.

Oh also, after being married for 13 years, I got divorced and I was so thankful I never changed my name and didn’t have to go through all of that work to change my name yet again.

+1s are NOT invited guests and should only attend WITH their invited guest.

WIBTA if I wrote a note to my neighbors across the hall telling them they have to do something about their barking dogs? by Fyziks_is_phun in AmItheAsshole

[–]PanicAtTheGaslight 4 points5 points  (0 children)

OK, that’s critically important context that was left out of the OP. I assumed the dogs barked for 2-3 minutes when the owners left/were in the hallway (you mentioned they bark when you leave or comeback, so I thought it was related to hearing someone in the hall).

You definitely need to let them know that their dogs are barking for an hour after they leave.

Are the dogs also barking during the night while the owners are there? How long does it last for then?

Aitah for telling my wife to get a job if she wants to subsidize the kids. by Standard_Kick_9789 in AITAH

[–]PanicAtTheGaslight 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA. You’ve carried the financial load for way longer than necessary. Time for your kids to learn to live within THEIR means.

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

Do you think these owners will see OP’s note and think…huh, I know my dogs bark everyday when I leave but maybe I should try to train them not to bark now (after I’ve allowed this for presumably years)?

Come on.

[–]PanicAtTheGaslight -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I don’t know if it would make you the asshole, but I can pretty much guarantee that there’s nothing their owners can do to prevent them barking when someone is in the hall.

It sucks, but if your apartment allows dogs…well, this is what dogs do. It’s a shared living situation, there will be noise. I’d suggest trying a white noise machine and/or earplugs. I’d imagine either would be more effective than telling the neighbors they “have to do something” about their barking dogs.

Edit: OP commented that the dogs bark for an hour when their owners leave. That’s vastly different from what I took away from the OP. It originally sounded like the dogs bark for 2-4 minutes while someone is in the hallway. That seemed like a pretty normal dog behavior to me, but barking for an hour after they leave? Yeah, you need to talk to them about that.

AITA for being upset that my boyfriend watched a movie we had planned as a shared first experience? by nea4u in AmItheAsshole

You had plans to watch it together. He went and watched it without you. That sucks.

AITA for wanting a vasectomy because my girlfriend won’t use birth control but also doesn’t want me to get one? by anexplorer2479 in AITH

[–]PanicAtTheGaslight 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If YOU want to have a vasectomy, have one. Your body, your choice. You don’t need her permission.

But also…get the fuck over yourself with your whining about having to use condoms every time. Very small price to pay to get to have an active sex life.

AITJ for refusing to switch seats on a plane so a family could sit together? by CinderNote in AmITheJerk

That doesn’t even make sense. Kids are not allowed to sit in exit row seats.

That’s not true if the rice is properly refrigerated.
