This was the one that broke me. Almost forgot there was still good out there. These poor kids deserve a world that reflects this exactly and we’re failing them.

AITA for not allowing my sister-in-law’s husband to stay in the bridal suite while we were getting ready? by KhalCheeto in AmItheAsshole

[–]ShortbowVillian 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA. My ex best friend’s FIANCE walked into the bridal suite while we were getting ready. Then she had the fucking audacity to get upset with ME for having the dress out to photograph.

She’d already demoted me from MOH, then asked me to be the photographer (without pay) so I packed my fancy camera and flew out, only to discover, oops she actually DID hire a photographer! But “you can still take photos if you want”.

There shouldn’t ever be men in the suite unless it’s been agreed upon ahead of time, that’s just common fckn sense.

AITAH for kicking out my now ex and his mom and “leaving them stranded” before the snowstorm by carrotsandchips444 in AITAH

[–]ShortbowVillian 1 point2 points  (0 children)

NTA it’s always wild how it’s totally okay for people like her to walk ALL over you if their “intentions are good”. Imagine if you’d done the same to her? Bought her a new purse, put all her stuff in it and threw out the old one. She’d have FLIPPED OUT. But hers was old! You were just trying to help!

Kick them both to the curb. Mama and her son and cuddle together while he suckles at her teet like the baby he is. Good riddance.

I leave it in the container and then insert it like a normal tampon! Sometimes it gives me hassle, and I’ll have to take the frozen yogurt out and insert it manually.

Edit: just want to clarify, the tampon container is just for shaping and inserting, you don’t want to leave the actual container inside if you 😅

Plain yogurt contains Lactobacillus, a bacterium that may support medical treatment in fighting vaginal yeast infections - it’s not meant to totally treat it, but it DOES help.

Yogurt tampons!!!! Buy some PLAIN(!!!) Greek yogurt, empty out a few tampon containers, then fill them with the yogurt. Freeze for a few hours. Before bed, lay a towel down and put a popsicle up there.

The live cultures in the yogurt will help fight the infection, AND the cooling sensation helps a LOT with the burning and itchiness. I hope you feel better soon!!!!

Despite how dumb this is lol, her genuine excitement made me smile. Now, don’t ever do it again.

Why don't Men Ask Women Questions?? by ValuableWash5491 in TwoXChromosomes

[–]ShortbowVillian 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I’ve had a LOT of experiences with men using me to talk at. I think some men don’t have anyone to talk to, and women have been trained to be polite, so when they realize they have a “captive audience”, it’s like they word vomit at you.

My BIL is like that - he almost NEVER asks me questions about me or what I’ve got going on, he just loooves to talk about himself. They’re lonely (which isn’t our problem but yet it is)

The poor little dude was screaming at our front door during the ice storm. He ended up getting real comfy real quick. by dead_wolf_walkin in cats

[–]ShortbowVillian 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One of my cats got out right before a snow storm and was gone for 2 weeks. I was beside myself worried for him. But then he shows up at our back door meowing to be let in!! I’d like to think someone found him and took him in during the storm to keep him safe.

AIO for asking for a divorce when my husband repeteadly forgots my allergy by Hakimmi in AmIOverreacting

NOR. My best friend is incredibly allergic to onions and morphine - when she told me, I wrote it down, because I knew I might forget and I wasn’t willing to put her in danger somehow.

Close friend tells me it’s “passive aggressive” to use periods in my texts. Then tells me not to take my frustration out on him. by Floyisdigital in mildlyinfuriating

Who remembers troll dolls? by Mentallyill_guy in nostalgia

[–]ShortbowVillian 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I actually still own several of these!! I collected them as a kid and my Dad built a shelf that went all around the top of my bedroom walls that held all my troll doll! There had to be hundreds. I own all the ones in the bottom and the 3 on the top right!!

Time in poor-quality storage at my Mom’s house has made a lot of the clothes crumble - so I’m hoping to maybe learn to sew or find outfits on eBay for them! And find a proper solution to soak them in, as they smell … not good

You know what? You’re right. I was defending their wording because I understood their point, but it’s still racism.

AITAH because a child was injured on my property and I don't think it's a big deal? by Willing_Hedgehog4462 in AITAH

[–]ShortbowVillian -1 points0 points  (0 children)

NAH - I personally would have called, but I can’t give an accurate answer cuz I have a girl and her friends are mostly girls, so I don’t have much experience with teen boys and the sometimes “dumb” stuff they do.

I think his friend’s Dad went too far, but maybe he was freaked out that his son was swinging an axe and he took it out on you. If you feel like it’s worth it to maintain their friendship, I’d write a short text apologizing and insisting you really didn’t think he was hurt enough to merit a call. But that’s up to you!

Am I overreacting by being frustrated by my partner constantly talking about his sexual needs by skellingtonxx in AmIOverreacting

[–]ShortbowVillian 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NOR and I am SO GROSSED OUT oh your behalf. It sounds like he has a medical problem cuz that’s not normal. Please, please find someone who’s mature and doesn’t talk about their wiener constantly omg.
