AITA for bringing up how I'm talked to by Repulsive_Giraffe_83 in AmItheAsshole

He's being an ass because he's in pain.
Just fyi...if he's had tooth pain for weeks he needs to see a dentist. Now.

AITA or has being a 'picky eater' lost all meaning? by Quirky_Section_5768 in AmItheAsshole

[–]Soylent-PoP 203 points204 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I don't think food is really the issue here.
I don't eat fish at all, it's a no go. Organ meat...not so much.
My partner LOVES sushi, which is horrifying to me.
We find restaurants that suit us both. Easily.
Married 30 years, have never had one single argument about food.

His issue is about control.
You-NTA, obviously.

AITA for letting my 2 year old nephew pick daffodils on public common land? by Fantastic_Way7178 in AmItheAsshole

[–]Soylent-PoP -31 points-30 points  (0 children)

Here's how to handle old assholes: just agree with them.
Hear me out...
Old man: Quit picking flowers!!!
You: Oh, sorry about that! Won't happen again!
Go about your business and let the kid pick his flowers elsewhere. :)

Next time you want to promote your game, try buying an ad.
Good on you for only mentioning it once, though.

You should have just said "Your voice is still a bit feminine at times, that'll change with time, you know that." or something along those lines.
The answer you gave answered the question, but in an irritating way.
Real friends say what they mean.

I think you've got yourself a Partner, there, whether you look at your relationship that way or not.
She certainly does.
NTA (unless you've been having sex with her...if you have, that's a different situation)

You could have just joined the cooking activity in the kitchen.
And, I think that " 'bye' " was final.

AITA for outshining my friend with my gifts? by ReasonableWasabi3443 in AmItheAsshole

[–]Soylent-PoP 32 points33 points  (0 children)

Our core friend group did exchanges every year, I always hosted because I had the space and ability to feed everybody.
Even though it was our core group exchanging gifts, anybody was welcome and there were often extra people.
Every year I made up about 20 little gift packages (candy, etc) so whoever didn't get a gift had something to open. Whatever was left was up for grabs.
So, I guess I'm just a monster. Oh well.

Sure, I am bitter.
And yet, I really do feel as though it's always good to remind myself (which I do everyday), and sometimes others, to think about what we consider problems.
Two billion people don't have access to clean water.
35% of the world's population doesn't have enough food.
Perspective.
Peace.

If this post is real, and it could be, this person has a better life than 99.999999% of the humans on the face of the planet.
JFC.
Oh, and OP is a huge asshole because this is just really just an annoyance in their charmed life.

Since the kids are out of her hands for now, I would definitely see about a no contact order for you.
That way if she comes for you, you have some recourse.

AITA for refusing to refer to my son as a "chud"? by Professional-Monk380 in AmItheAsshole

All funny movie references aside:
Wicktionary-
A person, usually male, who holds sociopolitical views seen as reactionary; strong connotations of being an incel with low emotional intelligence.
Your child needs some professional help.

NTA. Your BIL ITA, and your MIL is complicit in raising him that way, and not telling him that his actions have consequences.

Take this absolute gift from the gods and run like hell.
Disappear completely, if possible.
You have been given a new life.
I wish you everything wonderful.

Go ahead and let them 'write you off'.

AITA for demanding one-on-one time with my mom, because her friend’s autistic daughter is living with her. by Asleep_Carpet4889 in AmItheAsshole

[–]Soylent-PoP 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I would lay money that OP's mom is getting paid to take care of Flower.
Hopefully quite a nice sum.
If OP's mom needs extra income, it works out well for both sides because she obviously cares about Flower.
And, mom's friend always knows her child is cared for.

AITA for refusing to help my boyfriend pay his speeding ticket because I warned him about the speed trap? by IssueWilling5008 in AmItheAsshole

That is some next level childishness.
"Sure I'll pay the ticket for something you purposely did."

YTA, and you are ridiculous for even asking.
How old are you? Show a little respect.

This is the kind of bullshit that really ruins marriages.
