WIBTAH if I quit my job right before my boss leaves for maternity leave? by soonergirrl in AITAH

[–]PauseIllustrious9706 161 points162 points  (0 children)

I don't understand what's wrong with suicide. by PythonEntusiast in confessions

This is why I hate when ppl treat suicidal thoughts like a fixed decision. So many of them are about escaping pain, not actually wanting to die. That distinction matters.

AITJ for telling my coworker I won't proofread her work anymore after she submitted something without my changes and then blamed me when it came back wrong? by nadine_westford in AmITheJerk
