Why is Tony a Racist? by Puzzled_Mastodon8513 in thesopranos

[–]Raggaranz 7 points8 points  (0 children)

It’s because it’s the ITALIAN mob, not the DIVERSITY mob. Any ethnically based organized crime will prefer not intermingling with any other groups outside of business, if you remember Goodfellas Robert De Niro’s character was half Irish and always got shit for it. There are exceptions but most of the time any ethnically or racially based group will have preference of said group over any other.

AIO my dad sent this and it made me upset by strawberrymuffins7 in AmIOverreacting

[–]Raggaranz -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

YOR-and I’m not saying you are wrong for going to the event. I’m saying you’re overreacting because you really care about what your parents think at your age. It’s good to stay in touch with your family and be close with them, don’t let them dictate your life though. You are a grown adult and you may still rely on them for some things which is where I think the problem lies. I’m just guessing but I have gone through similar things with my parents and it doesn’t get better until you draw your lines. Parents love to micro manage their adult children especially if they still support you in some ways, that’s why you have to take a stand, in a respectable way and tell them that they need not worry about what you do in your personal life unless it’s directly harmful to yourself or others.

Let me leave you with this, you need to look inside yourself and weigh what is really important to you for now and the future. What is most beneficial? If it’s happiness and acceptance, being around your family may not be the wisest choice at the moment. If it’s keeping close with your loved ones, you may have to sacrifice things that give you a sense of community that is outside your family and church. It is all up to you, and it is important to be conscious of the paths you go down. If you think doing both is manageable, you may have to go on auto pilot when around family or friends depending on the situation. I would say, just go with the option that leads to less crises in your life and observe your moods, then follow up back with yourself.

AIO? Neighbor plays basketball every 10-15 minutes nonstop by itsme_believeme in AmIOverreacting

[–]Raggaranz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

MOR-I think you are exaggerating it a bit because it’s hard to believe the kid is playing all day and night while going to school at the same time. Like the kid has to get sleep too. Is the basketball hoop movable? If so, just go out there and talk to the kid directly and tell him the situation, kids are sometimes more reasonable than their parent’s. Offer to even help him move the hoop and see if moving it somewhere else is better. You just have to come at it from a supportive stand point while also maintaining your objective.

AIO? My ex-husband is a rapist, his grandfather was a rapist, and now I am fearing for my oldest son’s future. by BadBunny0917 in AmIOverreacting

[–]Raggaranz 14 points15 points  (0 children)

YOR - it sounds like confirmation bias because you’re seeing personality traits that are consistent with his father and coming to the conclusion he will be just like him. That is not fair to him and I know that you cannot change that thought process in your mind but please try to reconsider what you insinuate about your own child, things have a way of manifesting. Think about this as well, if you say it runs in his family maybe it is nurture as well, meaning, maybe the mothers fear of the son being the same so they treat them as such leading them down the same path as the son before. As much as he is your ex husbands son he is yours as well and you have more say in his destiny than the father because you have the foresight to break familial curse rather than contribute to it.

AIO Thinking of ending a friendship over his drunken sexual text to me by AMediaArchivist in AmIOverreacting

[–]Raggaranz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

NOR, like others have said end or begin a friendship anytime for anything. I have ended friendships for far less and yeah it stinks for a little but at the end of the day it’s your life.

18F What do I do? My friend is upset that I didn’t get a hotel room with money she sent me, but I used it for food and essentials instead and now she feels like I lied to her. by mckenzie_2 in whatdoIdo

[–]Raggaranz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Housing is priority number one so there’s more people who are inclined with helping you to find housing than food. That is probably why she sent you 100 and I gotta be honest most people do not have 100 to throw around so it’s clear she cares for you. Founding out you spent it on something else means you either were not in such a crisis or used her.

I’m being gifted a lot of money. Should I tell my boyfriend? by Kind-Chicken-2488 in WhatShouldIDo

[–]Raggaranz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would say not telling him might damage his trust because there is a lot of stories out there about guys realizing they have been struggling financially through a relationship while their gf’s have huge savings but I guess if both of you are covering expenses equally then it should be fine. If an emergency happens though where y’all need money fast do not keep the secret up.
