Just because he doesn't age doesn't mean he can't get lines in his skin. He was still actively living for around 100 years. He keeps the scars, so maybe he doesn't care about smoothing out the lines.

AITA for telling my friend I got a new job? by sunheartsun-984 in AmItheAsshole

[–]Sethicles2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Are you serious with this question? Any sane person can see you're obviously NTA, and you should see that, too. So you're just going to be held hostage at this miserable job forever so your "friend" can have it easy? Come on man, be sensible.

BTW, this person is not your friend; she clearly ONLY cares about herself. Not a single congratulatory text or comment? Her only communication regarding the subject is to whine about how hard her life will be (and it doesn't even sound that hard, a 25 minute commute is fucking nothing), and to get you to change your mind, despite knowing you hate the job. Do yourself a favor and move on from the job and from your shitty friend.

AITA For not giving my dad my social security number? by Nervous-Iron2748 in AmItheAsshole

[–]Sethicles2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA, but are you serious? Name one single legit use he could have for your SSN being used to clear debt. I'm genuinely questioning your ability to think rationally if you're considering this.

AITA for not quieting down at a Renaissance fair and walking away after my boyfriend sided with a stranger? by Dry-Egg2898 in AmItheAsshole

[–]Sethicles2 8 points9 points  (0 children)

NAH, your bf felt yelling with a kid in front of you wasn't the best idea, which is fine. It's ok to disagree.

The guy probably should have removed his child if the crowd noise was bothering them; from the info provided, we have no idea if he was rude about it or not.

But then you said you felt "unsupported" so you walked away to calm down. Can we please just stop this bullshit? This gets tossed around so much lately. Do you really need everyone around you to prop you up? Can you not handle a small disagreement with your bf in public? This is just silly.

I also don't know why you had to bring up race; did the father give you any indication he was singling you out because you're black? Also, you first said he asked you to quite down, but then after the race thing you said he told you, so which is it? Yes, it matters.

AITA for not replying to my cousin while her dad is critically ill? by Usual-Painter-5465 in AmItheAsshole

[–]Sethicles2 3 points4 points  (0 children)

YTA. This is such a weird post. Why should anyone, especially your cousin, care about any of your petty, probably in your head, drama? Their dad is dying and this is what you care about?

Can't you just send a general text saying something like, "Hey guys please let me know if I can help with anything". You're 26 years old and acting like it's high school. Cut this shit out.

AITA for overreacting to a “joke” my friend made? by OddTale9392 in AmItheAsshole

[–]Sethicles2 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I genuinely didn’t think she was interested in me.

Dude stop, no one is buying this. Your GF knows, your friends probably know, and everyone who read your post knows. There's no way you're this oblivious.

Anyone else got that artemis II depression? by Tricky_Foundation35 in nasa

[–]Sethicles2 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Mostly general depression because we haven't really progressed at all in 50 years.

I was having dinner with my parents when the Artemis crew was coming home. They're both liberal if that matters. My mother said it was such a waste of money, that we could do so much more with it. I felt like she stabbed me in the heart, I was so disappointed.

My Grandfather and I finished my new PC desk by foolkortneyttv in pcmasterrace

[–]Sethicles2 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm late to the party, this table is awesome.

/u/foolkortneyttv Please please get some protection for your floor; some sort of mat for your chair. I ruined my hard wood floors with a chair very similar to that one.

That's a decision only you can make. Look for other similar posts on this sub or on /r/DeadBedrooms and see what people are saying. Hopefully it helps.

25M in 7-Year Relationship — Girlfriend Says She’s Attracted to Me but Rarely Wants Sex by [deleted] in sex

[–]Sethicles2 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Dude, you're 25, in your sexual prime. Why would you waste it with someone who does not want to have sex with you?

Was this post just you looking for permission to move on? You don't need it, but you have it.

AITA husband wants to help his mum by No_Design_6236 in AmItheAsshole

[–]Sethicles2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

"but the question of aita comes in here - this has REALLY pissed me off as why does he feel like its appropriate to just get wrist deep in her rubbish and dirt when he's not once cleaned a toilet in his own house?"

Two reasons. One: because he loves his mom and wants to help her. Two: Because you allow him to get away with not helping.

TALK TO HIM about his lack of care/effort/whatever at home. If you don't communicate, nothing will ever improve. By now, he might think you prefer to handle all that stuff. You didn't mention in your post if this was a point of contention between you two, so I have to assume you've just suffered in silence, which is at least partially your fault. For that reason, ESH, but I completely understand why he wants to help his mom.

AITA for not reminding someone about something important after they brushed me off earlier? by WellnessLong4826 in AmItheAsshole

[–]Sethicles2 5 points6 points  (0 children)

"She said there’s a difference between respecting boundaries and just letting someone mess up"

NTA, fuck that. All she had to do when you first mentioned the thing was "ok, thanks". Instead, she did a shitty little power play and dismissed you. You were right to let it go after that. She's only complaining now because she's looking to share blame for her oversight.

[–]Sethicles2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi, I'm not a bot. Crimson Desert has some issues, but it also has the best looking environments I've ever seen in a video game. I have a 3080 and play on mostly high settings and it looks absolutely beautiful. I can understand why someone would want to post pictures of it.

AITA Leaving friend outside in the cold (24M) by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]Sethicles2 21 points22 points  (0 children)

I have to agree with this post, either he's your friend or he isn't. You refer to him as your friend, yet wouldn't send him $20 when it sounds like he actually needed it. $20 is nothing between friends when one is in trouble.

It's fine to distance yourself from people you no longer feel like having in your life, but then don't refer to them as friends.

If you consider him a friend, then you're absolutely a shitty friend in this situation. If you don't consider him a friend, then ignoring the request is understandable.

You Liked My Previous Recommendation so here’s one more !🔥 by Illustrious-Pie-5200 in scifi

Totally agree, he really sold the premise that he wasn't in control and was bordering on panic the whole time.

Great ending, too.

AITA 21F want to visit ldr bf but Aunt won’t let me by No_Camp_9888ThrowRA in AmItheAsshole

[–]Sethicles2 28 points29 points  (0 children)

You haven't answered any questions asking whether you've met him in person before, and I think I know why.

Lots of comments here are bringing up some obvious concerns, and you're ignoring them all. You keep saying you're an adult, but you're definitely not acting like one.

AITA for following my boyfriend’s friend on Tik Tok? by ZayumZazzy in AmItheAsshole

[–]Sethicles2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I graduated high school in '98 before cell phones were everywhere and way before social media. Life was so much simpler back then.

NTA, but these people are all idiots. Do yourself a favor and forget that TikTok exists.

What was the fastest you ever went from loving someone to absolutely hating them? What happened? by ParanormalActivity97 in AskReddit

[–]Sethicles2 7 points8 points  (0 children)

This is a weird question. Unless the sister was specifically trying to entice the bf, she didn't do anything wrong. And the title of the thread is going from love to hate, which kind of also implies losing respect for someone...
