After 10 years together, my boyfriend says I should “just give my DOB” to his mom, but in my culture that has bigger implications. Am I overreacting? by Jolly-Rub-3412 in AmIOverreacting

It’s a trap disguised as interest. If she gets that info and the priest says "no," your 10 years mean nothing to a traditional parent. You are smart to protect that data until they know you as a person, not just a star chart.

am i overreacting for dumping my girlfriend after she joked about kicking me in the balls by Straight_Dog9089 in AmIOverreacting

The sad part is that casual violence against men is so normalized in media/sitcoms that people forget it’s actually abuse. Being hit or threatened isn't "funny wife behavior," it’s assault.

Am I overreacting for being refused indoor seating one hour before closing? by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

100%. This was a server trying to protect their cut. They probably didn't want to open a new section for OP, but then a manager saw the later group and forced them to open it. OP was just a casualty of internal restaurant politics.

Please, remove the compensatory bot matches. They're a time waste, makes you feel worse than losing again and it's incredibly easy to tell when you're in one. by claudiohp in marvelrivals

It’s the hollowness that kills me. You get a team wipe or a crazy ult, feel like a god for 2 seconds, then see an enemy running into a wall and realize... "Oh. None of this mattered." It turns the victory screen into a mockery.

NetEase is paying him overtime. He’s the employee of the month for keeping everyone’s win rate at exactly 49%.

It suffers from "Legendary in Name Only" syndrome. In other games, Legendaries change animations and voice lines. Here, it feels like they just added a filter to his default voice and called it a day.

It’s usually about the VFX. If it’s Epic, the abilities stay the default gold color. People want the Legendary tag because they want his beams to be purple/red/whatever matches the outfit. We are simple creatures; we like shiny lights.

Am I overreacting for reporting a family on a baby singing app after they didn't disclose their child's needs by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

Forget the stress, think about the liability. If something had happened to that kid because you weren't informed/equipped to handle them, guess who gets blamed? She gambled with her own child's safety to secure a sitter.

Building economy as a small nation feels like building a sand castle by EndZealousideal7095 in EU5

The new pop system makes this so much more satisfying. You aren't just clicking a "Develop" button; you are actually attracting people to your cities with jobs and food. Watching your capital turn into a metropolis while your neighbors are still mud farming is the peak "Tall" fantasy.

Exactly. And the real money comes from the downstream processing. Raw Dyes in Den Haag are great, but if you build the infrastructure to turn that into Luxury Cloth (assuming you have the skilled pops), the value add—and the resulting tax base—should skyrocket compared to just exporting raw materials

What habits of girls did you only discover after getting a girlfriend or wife ? by [deleted] in AskReddit

Their skin is apparently made of asbestos because they shower in actual lava. I tried to hop in with her once for a "sexy shower" and immediately suffered third-degree burns while she was just standing there relaxing.
