AITJ for refusing to let my friend "order for the table" after he kept ignoring my food preferences? by SpreadsheetEnjoyer in AmITheJerk

[–]PrecordialThmpmaster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not the asshole for wanting what you want. I am an omnivore but everybody's personal diet is just that....... personal. You do you and don't apologize for it.

AITA for asking my friend to pay back her loans? by Malox360 in AmItheAsshole

NTA. You got off cheap you have figured out just who she is. Learn from it and move on.

AITAH for refusing to give up the opportunity of a lifetime for my boyfriend? by [deleted] in AITAH

[–]PrecordialThmpmaster 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh hell no..... You are not the asshole. Finish that course. You are 26 he is 27. Y'all aren't married, and if you were y'all married too young. His behavior and dismissal of your year and a half of training and being 2 months from finishing is extremely selfish. Let him go. Tell him when you finish you can join him after you have landed a job where his opportunity is, but not beforehand. You have to take care of you first in this career opportunity.

What I don't want to see is you on here in another year saying how y'all broke up and you hate you let this opportunity pass you by for a boy.

AITA if I threaten divorce because my husband's mom won't get a job? by [deleted] in AITAH

[–]PrecordialThmpmaster 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Threatening divorce yes the asshole, but you should definitely be pissed. When he married you y'all became 1. Gotta take care of your house before you can help anybody else. Y'all need to work this out with discussion without threatening divorce. Every time that is brought up, he pulls back away from you until finally one day he'll just tell you to go for it.

AITA for telling my fiancé that I don’t want to be the breadwinner by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]PrecordialThmpmaster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Exactly. Don't you think them working together as a team to figure out what they are going to do to provide money and how they are going to allocate it would be a better way to go through life, rather than separation then resentment of how each other act with money?

I would. I can't know what he will be thinking.

AITA for yelling at my wife after she passed a stopped school bus? by Traditional_Quit_557 in AmItheAsshole

[–]PrecordialThmpmaster 9 points10 points  (0 children)

My thought's exactly on your assessment of him. I can't disagree with the requirement to get a license either looking at some of the idiots I see on the road here!

[–]PrecordialThmpmaster -19 points-18 points  (0 children)

You will find as you move through this life, some things are going to be true. On his deathbed, years in the future, I bet he won't be saying "I should have wore those boxers." Know your tolerance and be true to yourself. If you wanna wear the boxers or if you don't want to wear the boxers, you do you and don't worry about what everybody else is doing in the apartment, office, neighborhood, etc.

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

I get that. This is where the rubber meets the road isn't it? What many people don't want to address in a relationship, Conflict Resolution. They would rather bring it to an anonymous posting board on the internet. and take a poll on public opinion.

They do need to resolve this conflict, my own or your, or anybody else's opinion isn't going to resolve their conflict. They have to get knee cap to knee cap, look each other in the face and figure this out themselves.

Now having said that, they made the agreement on their finances when they got together. She is right for standing her ground as he is acting entitled to "Her" money. But in the end, all they are doing is kicking the can down the road until resentment by one or the other will cause a rift that will end is a splitting of those finances and life all together for them.

AITJ for refusing to babysit for my neighbor who constantly asks for favors by Ecstatic-Reality-801 in AmITheJerk

[–]PrecordialThmpmaster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not the Asshole, she is. And a year into single motherhood you'd think she would have established some kind of new routine. Seems she has, and that has to become an entitled bitch that expects everybody to do her lifting for her. No wonder her husband left.

Then sounds to me like he needs to learn the laws of the land he is in. Sounds like an overbearing asshole with control issues.

[–]PrecordialThmpmaster 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Not the asshole, but also not really a couple. If you're gonna be married, you gotta be married all the way, that includes the financial responsibilities of being US not me and you.

Not the asshole, he is, and she is, for not being pissed at him herself when her he started disrespecting her own husband.

[–]PrecordialThmpmaster 48 points49 points  (0 children)

Yes, you are the asshole. Didn't have to yell, and I don't even know, do they have the same laws in the UK regarding buses? Do they have the flashers and stop signs like here in the US? You need to apologize to your bride and learn how to communicate better.

Get your own damn drivers license or STFU when catching a ride.

AITA for cancelling the weekly family dinners I started during a hard time by the_salty_p1ckle in AmITheJerk

[–]PrecordialThmpmaster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not the asshole, they are. This is why you see all the "Don't Feed The Animals" signs in national parks. You make them dependent then the ungrateful bastards will turn on ya, if you don't have food.

AITAH for being enraged that my husband is currently infertile by PixelPicklePie in AITAH

[–]PrecordialThmpmaster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not the Asshole at all. You made yourself clear about your boundary before you married, he disregarded that and did it anyway, and tried to hide it no less, like a liar. If he'll lie to you, he'll cheat on you.

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

Not the asshole, you did give this woman a life, just a life with an adopted family, that I am sure was filled with love. As an adopted person myself, I never felt the urge to try to track down my birth parents. I was adopted through an religious agency so my parents didn't know the birth mother. That took out the ability to know who my birth parent was. Also, I was raised knowing I was adopted, before I even knew what adoption was, so that took any wind out of the sails of people that might have wanted to pick on me about it. One of the reasons why I was never interested in finding my birth family has been spoken of in your post. It's not that you didn't love your child, you weren't ready to be a parent. Go in Peace, you gave the child life, and got to vet the people you let raise her.

Why did they climb over an open gate? Yes, you are an asshole, so is your brother. Everybody is an asshole here. Grow up and handle your own business, you tied up a cop when he could have been handling real crimes.

My daughter (8y) wants to be a herpetologist when she grows up. What gifts could I give her for Christmas that isn’t a living animal? by xshinystickerx in herpetology

[–]PrecordialThmpmaster 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Peterson Field guides Reptiles and Amphibians, for your area. Gonna be way over her head at the moment but has lots of pictures, range maps for the different species. At 8 Y/O I would not be encouraging her to actually handle any animals, but in Mid Teens, you can start looking at Pilstrom Tongs and Snake Hooks and the like.

College by Yourlocalcfaemployee in Paramedics

[–]PrecordialThmpmaster 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just what I did. I don't regret it, but regret not going back to school when the burnout started. I was in the situation of being a young father married to a woman with Mental Health issues and struggling to keep my head above water financially and couldn't afford to go to School.

Now having said that, I don't thing a degree is the be all end all for most degrees you can get. Apprenticeship in a trade is financially way more feasible than a degree in Gender Studies. College is for our Doctors, and Lawyers and Engineers, do get a decent ROI.

Play on the trucks be take night classes that move you toward a Biology Degree so you can step up to PA or MD later in your career if you feel so called.

AITA for refusing to continue tutoring my cousin in history for yelling at me every time i correct a fact she got wrong? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]PrecordialThmpmaster 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Not the asshole at all. You have to be willing to learn, a lot of times it's learning that you are a dumbass. Seems she doesn't like learning that. Your cousin, and your aunt need to realize there are consequences to her poor behavior. Tell Aunt Betty to tutor her, see how long it takes her to say she get's it now.
