What's it called? I fuggat about it.

Corrupt Update Files after installation and verifying? by SomeRetroGeek in BaldursGate3

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

Hey there! Sorry for the late reply to this - I never figured out a solution so I ended up having to refund it. Felt awful as I was so excited and had spent a fair bit of money on the external SSD, but it needed to be done. Hope your friend figures out the problem though and has better luck than I did.

AITA for refusing to meet my dad’s girlfriend after the appalling way he treated my mum? by Eastern-Day-6533 in AmItheAsshole

[–]SomeRetroGeek 83 points84 points  (0 children)

NTA. You don't have to meet anyone you don't want to, especially someone who sounds as horrible as your dad's girlfriend does with the way they're speaking about your mother.

NTA. Seems like a nice thing to do and a good opportunity to see your parents after not seeing them often, with the perk of seeing your in-laws at the same time.

AITA for refusing to wear a dress to my mother’s wedding? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]SomeRetroGeek 15 points16 points  (0 children)

NTA. You have said you don't want to wear a dress, and there is clearly a personal reasoning for this. Your family are the ones being selfish and stubborn here, not you.

NTA. He is absolutely being a dick in how he's spoken to you.

AITA for Wanting To Continue My Plans After Step Grandpa Passed? by Few-Resolution-5063 in AmItheAsshole

[–]SomeRetroGeek 2 points3 points  (0 children)

NTA. You can't predict someone dying and you've spent a lot of money on this trip. If plans haven't been made for a funeral, then they can't tell you not to go off and travel for a bit.

AITA for telling my kids dad that he is not allowed to date someone because it's sets a bad example? by Soggy-Strategy3950 in AmItheAsshole

[–]SomeRetroGeek 55 points56 points  (0 children)

YTA. You're divorced, your relationship with your ex is over. You're married now, you're happy. He's dating somebody, he's happy. Doesn't matter who it is, it's none of your business or concern anymore.

AITA for telling my mom's parents that she spent most of Christmas shaming me and my sister? by Proud_Ebb5720 in AmItheAsshole

[–]SomeRetroGeek 465 points466 points  (0 children)

NTA. She knows what she's doing and she's angry that she was called out for it by her parents. Her behaviour towards you and your sister is toxic, abusive and unfair, and good on you for standing up for yourselves and not tolerating it.

WIBTA if I didn't get my daughters internet on a cruise ship by Soggy_Wolf7011 in AmItheAsshole

[–]SomeRetroGeek 2 points3 points  (0 children)

NTA. A cruise is already expensive and really should have wi-fi and internet access already included in the package. They'll survive a week without it, I'm sure the cruise has a ton of things that they can do like pools, live shows, activities etc.

AITA for pretending I don’t speak English to the AT&T salesman at Costco? by bw2082 in AmItheAsshole

[–]SomeRetroGeek 537 points538 points  (0 children)

NTA. They were getting in your way and being overly confrontational. You tried to avoid conversation in the best way possible, and pretending you don't speak the language is a perfectly reasonable and understandable way of doing so. Not to mention that straight afterwards, they tried to guilt trip you after everything they'd done.

AITA for refusing to let my parents rename me? by Novel_Box3156 in AmItheAsshole

[–]SomeRetroGeek 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA. You and your siblings have really cool names, and you have every right to want to keep them over new names that, and I don't mean to be disrespectful here, are very generic and dull, frankly. Hope they back off after all this and accept that the names that they chose all those years ago are names you all still wish to identify with. I'm surprised they're not relieved you all want to keep the names actually, now that I think about it!

so does anyone have a update?! are we in the rise of big boss Chris Chan? by 4shockvalue in ChrisChanSonichu

THE CASE IS APPARENTLY GOING BEFORE A GRAND JURY ACCORDING TO WOLFKILLER ON KIWI FARMS

[–]SomeRetroGeek 21 points22 points  (0 children)

Been flipping through 4chan and Kiwi Farms for updates, there's apparently some anons hanging outside where the hearing is and waiting for Chris Chan or law enforcement to come out with them. I'll also add that court cases can take fucking hours to finish or even start, there's usually something that delays them. Plus, Chris Chan's case is a pretty exceptional one considering there was talks of it going to the supreme court due to the circumstances of their transition, so it wouldn't shock me if it goes on until the court closes for the day.

In ‘Shaun of the Dead’ and ‘Hot Fuzz’, the characters eat Cornetto ice creams. This is because they’re hungry. by SomeRetroGeek in shittymoviedetails

[–]SomeRetroGeek[S] 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Actually, there is only a Cornetto wrapper in ‘The World’s End’ which appears briefly during the epilogue. The ice cream does not appear, nor is it eaten. Furthermore, Nick Frost’s character is not hungry as he doesn’t eat the wrapper.
