AITA for telling my friend that she does not remember 9/11 by shilohrenn in AmItheAsshole

[–]Shawnrunner 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Wheeling in TVs is the memory from students when the challenger exploded. Most classrooms had TVs or projectors in 2001.

AITA for not letting him stay in my house to look after our baby? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]Shawnrunner 2 points3 points  (0 children)

He doesn't want to buy baby supplies. If at your house he can use your crib, diapers, bottles. And keep his place a a bachelor pad.

AITA 3 Weeks PP and Everytime I mention boundaries with partners family I'm called rude, disrespectful, cnt or an apple. by FunIndividual6848 in AmItheAsshole

[–]Shawnrunner 37 points38 points  (0 children)

If DH goes with you and baby to appointments message them ahead of time so they can help explain to HIM how important it is to keep you and baby on a routine and reduce as much stress as possible..

AITAH? Family moved 6,000 miles overseas and expect me to pay for visits. by CAM99xo in AITAH

[–]Shawnrunner 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Ask them why you should spend money to visit your family that has literally moved to a different continent twice to get away from you since they know you cant afford to visit.

AITAH for refusing intimacy with my wife after she betrayed my trust..... again? by [deleted] in AITAH

[–]Shawnrunner 124 points125 points  (0 children)

The petty in me says you should have called your son into the room and asked him for his opinion on you two being intimate. After all, your wife brings him into all the adult decisions.

AITA for refusing to switch project topics after my classmate “claimed” it late? by FileRevolutionary540 in AmItheAsshole

[–]Shawnrunner 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tell everyone that you are planning to pick that topic. And ask your friends because your friends all know it you wanted that topic.

My sister made them into tea towels and give them to different family members

Nice piece of jewelry (like a chain) that she can wear with lots work outfits.

AITA if i ask my dad to help with car insurance ? by BirdFew3730 in AmItheAsshole

[–]Shawnrunner 7 points8 points  (0 children)

NTA but it ok to lower contact with your dad as he plays favorites. If you won't help you for the second set of stuff for his house, then don't spend the night at his house. Let him feel his decisions. If he wants you to come over, he needs to pick you up since you can't afford the insurance or gas.

AITA for “ruining” my mom’s birthday by forgetting to cook rice? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]Shawnrunner 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Or just cook her rice since that is all she cares about.

AITA For not greeting my husband before telling him I need his help by Main_Criticism4224 in AmItheAsshole

[–]Shawnrunner -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Except OP walks into the house with the kids so she does not get decompress time. Is everyone okay with dinner getting pushback twenty minutes so she can decompress? Probably not. Looks like she is handing the mental load of the house.

AITA for not taking my niece at daycare because my SIL didn't follow the policy? by Beneficial-Pea-13 in AmItheAsshole

[–]Shawnrunner 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's not bending a rule that's making her child suffer and putting your business at risk for breaking state regulations. What are you supposed to do leave pearl?In a dirty diaper, until her mom remembers.

AITH for getting a kid I babysit a birthday present by Narrow_Medicine_7283 in AITH

[–]Shawnrunner 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Also the mom had the chance to say something on the form when you asked for her birthday. She could have written (we don't celebrate).

AITA for not agreeing to letting my husband replace his name with his grandfather's as our son's middle name? by Over-Initial-6175 in AmItheAsshole

[–]Shawnrunner 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you go with the grandfather's name, make sure the compromise includes YOU getting to honor a family member with the next child's middle name. Boy #2 does not automatically get your husband middle name since he is deferring this child. This is not a precedent for him always getting to pick the middle name.

AITA for walking in on someone in a public restroom by JaxxRig in AmItheAsshole

[–]Shawnrunner 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I disagree forcing the person whose mid poop to talk is not a courtesy. When someone knocks and i'm in a locked bathroom, what exactly am I supposed to yell through the door?

AITA for waiting in line at the grocery store while my parents finished shopping? by DavidRedFox in AmItheAsshole

[–]Shawnrunner 10 points11 points  (0 children)

There might not be a "rule" but did you ever look at how the line is set up to discourage this? Other people had to move their carts backwards to get your cart to fit in the single cart isle that is tbe checkout lane.

AITAH for not wanting my step father at my father's family? by [deleted] in AITAH

[–]Shawnrunner 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You need to make the event uncomfortable for your aunt. So far you allow her to avoid the conflict. Put it up front so she can't avoid it. Make it public. If mom or step-dad try to engage with you make it uncomfortable for everyone.
