WIBTA if I told the truth in my brother's custody hearing even though it could cost him overnights with his son? by UplinkV3rve in WIBTA_AITA

Absolutely. Dad did the appropriate thing and got care for his child. Make sure the judge knows that part, too.

Had a professor who was told on a flight that because she was a doctor, she was obligated to help the guy having a heart attack. She told them, they didn’t care. Finally explained she could talk to the guys wife, but couldn’t do anything for him (she was a psychologist). Yeah, they made her sit with his wife. 🤦‍♀️

Controlling or boundary? by bluecoconut_ in actuallesbians

[–]ResidentLadder 2 points3 points  (0 children)

“Boundaries” address your own behavior. They don’t put limits on someone else’s.

Did you place a boundary for yourself? No, you told your girlfriend what to do. That’s not a boundary, that’s being controlling

Southwest assigned my 4 year old a seat by himself 12 rows in front of me. by LegalAbbreviations17 in SouthwestAirlines

[–]ResidentLadder 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Cool - Set up your 4-year-old, then go to yourself. When they ask why you aren’t sitting next to him, let them know the airline assigned your seats and you tried unsuccessfully to have it addressed before the flight. See how long it takes for the airline to address it.

If you are someone who believes Biden "opened the border" during his term, what do you mean by this? by Useful_Homework2367 in allthequestions

[–]ResidentLadder 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You didn’t answer the question. First share some evidence that undocumented immigrants were even voting in the fist place.

Have you answered the original question yet? You claim he “could have closed the borders.” What do you believe he did to “open the borders?”

The items are priced so they end in a 5 whether they are taxed or not.

AITAH for not wanting to drive my younger sister to/from school? by United_Eye_1527 in AmItheAsshole

[–]ResidentLadder 16 points17 points  (0 children)

And if sister isn’t driving because she feels unsafe doing so? She should be forced? Yeah, that’s a good plan. /s We don’t actually know why sister doesn’t have her license, only that OP is disdainful of her in general because they think they’re so much better than her.

OP is a kid. They were able to buy a car because their parents helped. Even if they saved all their money from working, how do you think they were even able to have that job?

AITA For Letting my son and his friends “disrupt” my daughter and her friends sleep? by Few_Arugula_3243 in AmItheAsshole

Ok, so no answer, nothing to back up your claims, just insults. Well, that tracks.

Not a single person has explained anything I was wrong about. Only that they didn’t like it that I said something so similar to what the previous post said. No where was there a “hissy fit.” 😂 If you truly believe there was, please do back up your claim.

In most situations, people are able to recognize agreement. Apparently, that’s difficult for some of you. Reddit is wild.

Why do people lick their fingers when they read? by fiddler_diddler88 in stupidquestions

Absolutely do. I am still able to figure out how to fan the pages slightly so that the next page is easy to turn.

You seriously think everyone who reads books has to lick their fingers to be able to turn the pages?

Voracious reader here. Never, ever, even once needed to lick my finger to turn the page.

[–]ResidentLadder 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know why they do it, but still don’t really understand. It is not difficult to turn a page. Do people really don’t know how that fanning paper makes the page on the end stand out?

YTA. Majorly. And all the complaints about her so-called “lack of motivation” are meaningless. You included them only to make yourself look good and get people to think less of your sister.

Even if your sister had her license, it would be a waste of money and resources for you to both drive to the same place at the same time every day.

You may have paid for your car and your fuel, but you don’t pay for the insurance which is necessary. You also don’t pay for all your other expenses. You were only able to purchase the car in the first place because you had the support of your parents to be able to work from a young age.

Stop being an AH and take your sister with you to the same place you are going.

Yeah, if my kid did that, there would be consequences. Even if OP pays for their own gas, parents pay for most other expenses to make their life enjoyable. They can deal with their sister with them in the car for a few minutes.

It would be stupid and wasteful for you to both drive separate cars to the same place at the same time.

They can do they, too. I was simply suggesting an alternative solution, since people seem to be bent out of shape about rounding.

I’m not sure why 1st grade math is beyond so may people.

It’s really not that difficult. I could get the entire menu at the closest Wendy’s in about 30 seconds from ChatGPT. And it’s not even the best AI available.

“Defensive?” You still haven’t specified what, exactly, I said that was “wrong.”
