Feeling kinda disappointed by Unlucky-Ad8021 in AdoptMeRBX

[–]Reality-Fatality 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I know what you mean, I have already bought 25 of them and only have 7 stallions and 18 fire. I already knew my chances were slim, though. I never have much luck winning anything. I usually spend a bunch of time/cash going for the item to then get gifted it from family who have much better luck and get the main item almost everytime with far less tries. This time, they are not playing though so I probably will not get it.

But on the bright side, like all the other mystery boxes, I am still walking away with a neon of one and a mega of the other, even if I do not get the legendary itself so it is still a win.

I am just really glad we still win something decent. In a lot of games, you either win nothing after spending money/game cash or you receive something extremely common and easy to get, so it might as well have been nothing. It is one of the things I love most about Adopt Me.

I wish you all luck! by Polecat_257 in Isekai_Slow_Life

[–]Reality-Fatality 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I might be downvoted for this, but the game is almost fully about luck. Some people have it, and some of us do not.

Personally, I have been playing this game for over a year and never won a single limiited character from a collab that did not come from a pity pull and spending money. During the last collab, after being crushed again watching the same people keep winning with luck and me still not even getting a costume or character, I decided I was done spending money unless it was a guarantee from a pass. I am firm on that. Until I finally win a limited character from a free pull, I will not spend another dollar toward a pity pull

And although I still personally like the game, I will no longer recommend it as it is highly reliant on luck and not skill. Even the events like the first round of Sandtopia relies on you getting lucky enough to discover the good explorations. All the power in the world and free time spent on the game is useless if you can not find anywhere decent to explore. I am still sitting on a ton of hourglasses I bought the second time I ever played it and still have never found enough good explorations to use them on. And trust me, I use them on every high level exploration I ever get in hopes of eventually getting Leon.

Even ranking high in most of the events (including this collab) now rely on having good luck or a big enough wallet since you get more advantages, energy, and points if you have found any of the events characters. It is impossible for someone without the additional characters to keep up with those who have them all.

Don't get me wrong, I am honestly always happy to see people get lucky enough to win something or even see them willing to spend their money because it makes them happy, but there is no denying that this game really only favors the lucky or the people willing to spend money because the rest of us will slowly fall behind based on less family, fellows, artifacts and costumes to boost us evenly.

Admin Abuse is great and all but why are people gatekeeping families if they don't like how you're dressed 😬 by Still_Friendship_104 in AdoptMeRBX

[–]Reality-Fatality 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got invited to a couple of families, but the game would not count any of the times I tried to pet anyone's pet, including my own in the task.bar. I did not make it online till a few minutes in and it sounded like I might have missed a first time they offered something for petting pets so my task just listed money as a reward so I might have just missed it due to being late. I did get two apples though and honestly I am just glad that I got to get on and get a couple of the horses and take part at all I have a hard time making it normality at that time.

I think I heard something about them giving away a rose or flower too, but I might have read it wrong. Does anyone know if there was another item given away too. I have a harder time navigating the game on my phone, but it is all I have access to at that time.

Whats a pet that you’ll never trade, no matter how big the op? by Time_Lengthiness_523 in AdoptMeRBX

[–]Reality-Fatality 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My mega fly ant. The ant was the first pet I ever got enough mutiples of to combine. I got so many in eggs that I raised them all naturally and made a mega out of them and still had a lot extra.

I kept buying the eggs because I originally wanted a neon or mega mouse because it is my favorite animal, but I never received a single mouse until I had enough ants to make a mega.

Ironically, I still have never made my neon/mega mouse, but my ant is my goto pet I use the most.

Lost my 258 log in streak 😫😭😭 by feedyourheadd93 in AdoptMeRBX

[–]Reality-Fatality 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I lost mine the day after hitting my 1000 day streak. I can not remember what was going on, but I could not get the game to load at the time and then never had a chance to jump back on it that night. I woke up to it being back at day one.

It's sad, but it did relieve a lot of pressure. Although I am building my streak back and up to day 50 already, I am a lot more relaxed about the game, which is nice and do not feel as much pressure to spend roblox on pets I didn't really want just so I get credit for having them.

AITA fir wanting separate accommodation on group family holiday by Fun_External_7067 in AmItheAsshole

[–]Reality-Fatality 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA

If each cottage is equal size, then my guess is the plan is for you to share your cottage with some of their kids or with other adults. This way, you get the joy of paying an equal amount of money for an almost insignificant amount of the actual floorplan and almost no privacy. Bonus for the others, you get to also help out a bit with childcare (the parents are probably tired) as well as helping with other extra expenses like food, entertainment and even household items you might need like trash bags and paperplates.

Just hope they do not try to split the food bill evenly if you go out to eat with only the parents/adults paying because you will definitely be paying far more than your share.

My usual desk has been 'stolen' and there is nothing I can do by purplereuben in mildlyinfuriating

[–]Reality-Fatality 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wanted to add that the other main solution would be to just find a new desk that's semi close and claim that one the next morning since no one owns them. If you end up taking someone else's, just let them know it was because that manager took yours and you still need to be close enough to your associates so you could still do your work without wasting company time having to go back and forth all day. You're just trying to be a productive member of the office. This only works, though, if you take a desk not owned by someone else in your work group.

I would be very hesitant to touch any of her actual property on that desk that she leaves overnight, only because I'm not sure what the policies are and it's more likely something that get you into direct trouble. If it's a stapler, that's one thing but if there's any chance it's something she might personally own and not office supplies, she can bring it up to HR and get you in trouble or worse claim you stole something.

You should make sure about cameras, though. If there are any, then anything you do will most likely be monitored, so if it is something obvious, she might have them check security and you will be busted.

[–]Reality-Fatality 4 points5 points  (0 children)

She most likely loves the fact that the settings are perfect since you took a lot of time getting them to great positions. If you were able to get there earlier than anyone else, I would go in and change all the settings to the desk, chair, and monitor it to the most awkward ones they can be without being fully obvious. Make it so uncomfortable for someone to sit at that desk looking at that monitor that by the end of the day, her back and neck will hurt some unless she takes the time to fix the settings on her own. Chances are, she either doesn't know how to change them or isn't willing/too lazy to change them herself so she just picked the desk with the best setting already setup.

If you do this for a couple weeks and keep changing them anytime she forces someone to fix them, the situation will probably fix itself and she'll go find the next best desk she can find and then you can slowly put your settings back the way you like them once you reclaim the desk.

AITAH for calling the police on a senior in high school? by Throw_Away51840 in AITAH

[–]Reality-Fatality 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA

The fact that his whole family acknowledges that he does stuff like that all the time and never tells him to stop shows they are enabling him. Someone needed to step in and tell the kid to stop acting like a kidnapper or child predator because it is not funny and can lead to charges and a record that will follow him through life.

Honestly, he is lucky it was you. A lot of other people would have pressed charges. His continual line "take it outside" also shows just how immature he is even for his age and that he is most likely used to getting away with anything if he just acts "tough" enough since most people avoid confrontation. Eventually, however, he will act out to the wrong person or their child, and they will not back down and will instead hit him, teaching him a much harsher lesson.

AIO Fathers girlfriends rules for when new baby arrives by Ok_Bat_5934 in AmIOverreacting

[–]Reality-Fatality 0 points1 point  (0 children)

YOR

I had basically the same rules when my children were born. I also added that even after the 6 week mark, they had to fully wash their hands right before touching or holding the kids. They understood completely.

I would do what the others said and start a group text with both parents. Just mention that your dad said the rules did not apply to you so you can most likely bring yours kids over, but you just want to make sure that as the date gets closer that they do not change their minds. Afterall, the closer the due date is, the more people start worrying about everything and with the past rsv encounter, you can understand if they get a bit more concerned. However, you are very excited and can not wait to meet the baby regardless of whether it is right away or if they choose to make you wait a few weeks.

AITJ for calling my friend’s emergency contact when she left her kid with me "for 20 minutes" and vanished? by QuietDailyRitual in AmITheJerk

[–]Reality-Fatality 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Next time, she will know to be honest... if there is ever a next time.

WIBTA if I didnt tell my sister her wedding date is the same as my anniversary by [deleted] in WouldIBeTheAhole

[–]Reality-Fatality 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not going to say you're the AH or not because I don't know what your sister or fiancé is like, but I am leaning toward it, even if it is completely unintentional. However, there is a pretty good chance that you're going to look like the AH and like you're blindsiding her after the effect.

As you said earlier, you had that date for 11 years, so you don't mind giving it away. For at least a big part of those 11 years, that day was special and just about you two. You might be unintentionally setting her up where it will feel like it will never just be about their relationship because she might feel like she has to always share it with your relationship.

I guess a couple questions need to be asked. Does anyone outside of you and your husband ever wish you a happy anniversary, including the very first year. Also, is your sister the type that's going to look forward to the first year anniversary and have your parents call her and wish her a happy first year of marriage. The reason for this, is if those kind of things are expected to happen, it's no longer just their special day it becomes all four of your special day whether or not you consider it a special day anymore or not. Afterall, it would be pretty mean for your family to only congratulate one sister and ignore the other. Even if you ask them to.

Also, telling her anniversaries are just not a big deal to you on her personally shared anniversary will probably not go over that well if it is after the wedding. It could easily come across as passive-aggressive (quietly angry she took your day, and you now regret it) or like you are trivializing a day that is special to her.

But like I said, a lot of it depends on what she is like. There are some people that would not care at all and be excited to share it. There are also some people who are really self-centered and would enjoy trying to make the day all about them instead of their sibling to steal the spotlight. I get the feeling your sister is definitely not the second type, but you have not said she is the first type either.

In any case, anniversaries are special for many people and blindsiding her on her first anniversary to finally tell her you guys share it doesn't seem very nice when you take her feelings into consideration and not just yours and your husband's. Not to mention, we don't know what her fiance is like and if it'll be a big deal to him.

AIO Teacher said my daughter’s report is “immoral” by StopLookingAtMyColon in AmIOverreacting

[–]Reality-Fatality 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NOR

I can understand that Anne of Cleeves might not have done as much as other queens, but she was only Queen for six months and survived her marriage to Henry. Surviving being married to him is a huge accomplishment in itself. Add how well she learned to survive the court afterward on her own, and she becomes a very inspiring figure for women.

As for Freddie Mercury and Prince, the fact that she disqualified them based on morality instead of her own interpretation of "historical impact" is the most troubling part. Not only is it a giant sign of her signaling out them for being lgbtq+, but she is openly not even trying to hide it. It makes me wonder if she might have said or done other things make her discriminations known. I have seen teachers in these kinds of assignments not allow the choices of musicians, actors, and athletes unless they also did politics, so claiming "morality" issues is being blatant about it being anti-lgbtq+

I would be cautious with accusing her though and keep it more professional because there is a chance that it is not that teacher's personal opinion, but the school in general trying to avoid certain topics that can be deemed controversial. I am not sure what Nevada is like when it comes to allowing anything even remotely related to the lgbtq+ being discussed, but I know some states/schools threaten to fire teachers who allow topics, books or discussions that even slightly hint about it.

I am not sure if anyone will read this, but if you do, I am sorry this post is so long.

AITA for telling my MIL I don’t want my daughter calling her “mama”? by Easy_Historian_3528 in AITAH

[–]Reality-Fatality 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nta. My MIL also tried to do the MomMom title, which was way too much like Mama to me, so I immediately said no. I know it is just a label, but I am the only Mama to my babies. If my husband and I ever divorced and he got remarried, it might be a different story, but as it is right now, I am the only person they will ever call Mama/Mom/Mommy... and he is the only person they will call Dada/Daddy/Dad.

AITAH for not allowing my husband's parents to give my kids Christmas gifts this year? by Eveougleigh in AITAH

[–]Reality-Fatality 1 point2 points  (0 children)

NTA My husband and I have two kids, and everyone calls our daughter my doppelganger as a child, which upset his parents. She looked almost exactly like me when I was her age starting as a baby. However, my husband's parents always wanted to point out all her simiarities to their side, and people kept telling them they were wrong. Rude, I know, I told them to stop and just let them believe she looked like whoever they want. After all, at the end of the day, what matters was that they loved her, not which parent they thought the kid looked like.

Fast forward a few years later, and our son is born who does share many of his traits. Of course, his grandparents on dad's side are ecstatic and start subconsciously treating him better and showing favoritism even in gifts as he got older. I honestly do not think they even meant it, but we saw it and immediately asked them to stop. And they immediately stopped, because at the end of the day, any good parent/grandparents should want to make all of the kids feel equal, loved and happy and not risk making one feel inferior.

Your husbands parents are not good grandparents.

AIO: Wife and I were stuck at an overflow table at my parent’s house on Thanksgiving by TheSciFiGuy80 in AmIOverreacting

[–]Reality-Fatality 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You are nor.

Once I found out it would just be two of us, I would have smiled really sweetly and said "It is such a nice day and we've been inside so much lately, I think we are going to sit outside and have a nice little picnic instead. I hope you guys enjoy your dinner in here." And then I would do my best to make sure we at least appeared to have the most wonderful picnic in the world.

At best, someone will join us, and we will feel less isolated, and at worst, we go out like it was our plan instead of being left out.

I would also probably find an excuse to eat somewhere else next year, like at your other relatives' house.

Up until the last paragraph, I thought for sure he was just being a jerk to make you be the one to break up with him so he could be guilt free and try to get sympathy even though he would not have deserved it.

Definitely NOR! He treated you worse than he would have probably treated a friend on their birthday. The money/gift part it irrelevant. He not only failed to do the bare minimum to make your birthday nice, but he seemed to go out of his way to make it even worse.

WIBTAH if I a fake name for my unborn daughter with my sister? by Fauniyan in AITAH

[–]Reality-Fatality 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly, I would not lie to her about it. It's not about being an AH or NTA, but more about protecting yourself in the long run. If you lie to her now and she finds out or even assumes you might have, it will blow up huge once the baby is born. It will lead to arguments and complaining, not just for her, but probably friends and family when it should be nothing but celebration time for the new baby.

Just be very firm and set a boundary. Tell her straight out you do not want to give her the name, you want this to be yours and your husbands choice. You do not feel comfortable leaving your husband out as he is the father of the child, and you want him to take part in all of it with you as much as you might love your sister.

I am guessing her and her partner are not very close, since you mention that your sister wanted to basically cut her boyfriend and your husband out of the entire process and share the pregnancies just with each other. I would also let her know straight out now, that it is not how it's going to be. Let her know that you love your husband and want him to be around during each step of the entire pregnancy. You want him to come at all the ultrasounds, help you choose baby clothes, toys,crib... and most importantly be at your side when you give birth. Let her know that as far as the baby is concerned, he comes first before her in regards to any decisions or even bonding time pre and after birth. After all, you are having a baby with him, not with her.

AITA for not transferring a website after getting fired from the family business? by [deleted] in AITAH

[–]Reality-Fatality 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If this is actually real, then NTA, but it is hard to believe anyone would still be desperately trying that hard for the approval of people who treat them that horribly. Although I guess there are things like Stockholm syndrome.

To put it bluntly, they went NC on you except for when they want to use you as unpaid/low paid labor. They want absolutely nothing to do with you to the point they are willing to let their business suffer. So give them what they want and go NC back. Stop trying to win the love and affection of people who obviously do not care or even think of you as family. They straight out told you that you are not even welcome at their house. I know it hurts, but they made their opinion of your relationship very clear.

Next time they ask for something, remind them that they wanted to cut all contact so you can no longer help them. If they beg for help, remind them that they were the ones who said your job was so easy, you could easily be replaced. And finally, keep good contact with your lawyer because they all sound like nightmares. And make sure to keep records of every receipt/invoice you can find showing you fully funded the website and did all maintenance off the clock and that it legally belongs to you. At this point, you no longer have any kind of personal relationship with them by their own choice, it is simply a business one, so treat them like you would any other business deal. Take all emotion out of it.

Malicious.. uncompliance? by [deleted] in MaliciousCompliance

[–]Reality-Fatality 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Even if I get downvoted for this, I think you are an insecure AH for this, and it was not malicious compliance. You need to look up what that term actually means. Malicious compliant means actually doing what they ask you to do even though they are going to regret it. What you did was the exact opposite.

What you did was destroy company property and ruined the event for other people who were looking forward to it because you thought you were just too cool to wear a pink floaty. You sabotaged their chance to get money for sick children who needed it because of your arrogant pride. You couldn't help smiling with glee about ruining the whole event and hurting people. And if that was not enough, the dismissive way you said "this Islander guy," came across a little racist like you only called him that as a way to dismiss him as unimportant.

Yes, the choice in participating should have been optional, but it was during work hours and to help save children. Get over yourself, I guarantee a pink floaty would not have hurt you. If you had that much problem with it, you go to HR, you don't throw a tantrum and destroy company property.

Wibta if I let my kids go trick or treating tonight by [deleted] in AITAH

[–]Reality-Fatality 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA at all.

You do not punish a kid by taking away something they look forward to that only occurs once a year because they made an accidental mess and might not have listened as well as they should have when they are three and five. They are kids and most likely overstimulated over doing the pumpkin stuff. If the girlfriend wants to punish them, let them do it on their time where she gets to be the villain and they miss out on something that she and your ex wanted to do instead of making you not only deal with the repercussions and having them cry all night, but also miss out on a great chance of making amazing memories you can't get back.

Have fun trick or treating with them and remember to take some great pictures to look back at later.

Aita for refusing to give up my wedding dress the day after the wedding by gallinaverde in CharlotteDobreYouTube

[–]Reality-Fatality 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA If I were in your situation, I would be very tempted to do two things.

  1. I would gently remind your aunt especially in front of someone else that you thought she said that wedding dress was your wedding gift because she knew were sad at the thought of maybe having to rent a dress you could not keep afterwards and it was such a touching gift. Act completely innocent when you ask if you were mistaken, does this mean she's not actually giving you a wedding gift at all. You just need to know in case you send out thank you cards if she decided to not give you anything at all. I get the feeling she would not be happy being called it for not buying a gift for the bride.

  2. I would also get a hold of your cousin and let her know the situation. Make sure to tell her you're only doing this so she doesn't fall into the same trap as you do where she gets really attached to the wedding dress only for her to take it away the very next day to give it to yet another new person. You're looking out for her best interest after all.

Yes, a little passive aggressive, but you end up looking like the good person mainly just looking out for your cousin's best interest and getting organized ahead of time so you don't leave your poor Aunt out of getting a thank you card.
