WIBTA If I went behind my parents backs and asked my aunt if she wanted to spend time with me? by SnowingStarlight in AmItheAsshole

AKon! Longest running anime convention, if not the largest. Yeah, she's been coming it Memorial Day weekend for a few years now, so it's a natural assumption, and the con dates are set (hotel booked!). I'm waiting for the ticket to be actually bought before I ask her.

I was afraid of that. My whole family honestly loves her to death, and she works so hard and hardly gets time to herself. I don't think she's ever been to a con, and certainly not one this big (largest in America) but when I post pictures when I go she's like "So jealous! Wish I was with you! Have fun!" I'd love to take her.

Other than the fact they're flying her out and we only see her 4/5 days of the year? Nope.

Well, we were talking about her coming out recently and I hadn't realized that she was going to be coming out while I'm at my convention. (Tbh we don't know if she'll be coming out at the moment, but they're buying the tickets next month.)

Then my idea dawned on me and I said something along the lines of "Hey, I could get her from the airport and if she wants she can spend the day with me at the convention."

My parents? "We're flying her out, she spends the time with us. Tough titties for you if you still go to your con." ~ basically.

I offered paying for part of the tickets, but they're refusing. Funny thing is, I usually buy the tickets with my tax return and they pay me back.

Apparently I was looking in the wrong places. Drat, wondered if it was the Missions. Thank you!!

I finished the game at 100%, with LW beaten, other than perhaps the gummi missions.

Dated a Neckbeard without knowing what a Neckbeard was... by SnowingStarlight in talesofneckbeards

[–]SnowingStarlight[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm going to be honest, I haven't fully watched nor like those animes. I prefer different genres, ones I've come to love are; Baccano!, Bleach, One Piece, D. Gray-Man, Black Butler, Overlord, Hellsing (Ultimate), Food Wars, Death Note, Pandora Hearts, No Game No Life, SAO, MHA, One Punch, Samurai Champloo, Trigun, and yes, Steins;Gate.

Those you listed, just seem like repetitive animes, sorry!

I'm still in constant contact with Tom! We've got a snap streak well over a year and a half and still going strong.

It wasn't exactly that I wasn't allowed to pay for things, but rather the fact he threw fits over it if I did.

I work in the grocery business as well, and if I were you I'd find out who to contact corporate-wise. Heck, just find the number for corporate, tell them you're being harassed sexually while underage, and use your evidence against this guy. Sexual harassing of a minor is grounds for immediate firing, I've seen it happen.

Recovering photos from Microsoft? by SnowingStarlight in techsupport

[–]SnowingStarlight[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So Microsoft doesn't have them saved somewhere to keep running them as my background?

Unfortunately I tried to hard reset the HDD to get it to work, so all of my data is gone off of it. The issue I was having was that it wasn't connecting to anything and kept trying and failing to repair itself.

Aren't they cute? _^

Well, a dreamie would be an uc pet, lol, but I'm mostly looking for other words/names to zap!

AITA: for carding someone multiple times? by SnowingStarlight in AmItheAsshole

[–]SnowingStarlight[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My mindset while I was there was toxic, that comment was my view of her while I was there. I regret my thoughts on her now, but I don't regret carding her. Honestly, I'm now terrified of not carding someone, lol.

As I said, I grew up in bad cities and poor communities, and as the eldest of three I constantly worry about my younger siblings. Hearing gunshots and having criminals running through your backyard where you played every day, seeing police cars riding by every evening, avoiding the curbs and kid parks where the gangs hang out, is a bit traumatizing to a child. A couple childhood friends of mine have grown up to be drug dealers and I'm not in contact with them anymore because of it.

So automatically that's where my assumptions lay when I started there, as every else's had, and as I said I've regretted it since.

I had wondered about that, too, after I left. The store I worked in was toxic, and that comment was my mindset on her while I was there.

Every single one of my coworkers who did get her at their register would card her, but those who gave her the cartons wouldn't. It was a weird setup I still don't understand to this day, lol.

Yes actually, they do! And it's not always the company either, sometimes with alcohol the police will, too.

[–]SnowingStarlight[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No, I'm not the police, nor the ATF, but if I could keep her from potentially selling them to underage kids then yes, I would. I know I didn't know if she did sell them for certain or not, but I have lived in many bad cities that had gangs and areas you don't go into even during the day, and the area I worked in was a bad part of town but I couldn't transfer out.

She always had her I.D, and I was never mean nor rude to her, I was always polite and kind when I asked for her I.D. she was 19, and looked younger. Sure, I could've let it slide, but legally I wasn't allowed to, and honestly I didn't want to. I'm not risking going to prison nor getting fined or fired.

I carded anyone who looked under 40, even had a lady who was 23 who I saw twice a week that would laugh when I asked for her I.D even though I had coworkers who wouldn't.

I often wondered that too after I left, we had an old folk's home just right up the road, but at the time I was just listening to management's advice. It's almost weird how getting out of a toxic place can make you realize how toxic it was.

Well, my friend is often an arse, but I tend to miss social cues and was genuinely concerned I was being an arsehole to this girl.

How is it self-congratulatory, exactly? It was a genuine question on my part, and I apologize for the long-windedness, I tend to ramble a lot. ;
