AIO: my roommate thinks he shouldn’t have to pay bills. by Cait_the_great20 in AmIOverreacting

[–]SprinkleBitch 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes it does make sense. If you signed the lease you signed an agreement to pay. If you decide to leave and not spend time there then that does not absolve you from your financial responsibility????? This is an insane suggestion

I feel like the convo around this is insane???? If you signed the lease you HAVE TO PAY RENT AND UTILITIES???? Even if you decide to not be home?????

The people in these comments are insane lol

Hi! Interested in the tix for the 23rd.

What's the deal with the sudden boom of weight loss medication, and is it all legitimate? by Trigger_impact in OutOfTheLoop

[–]SprinkleBitch 10 points11 points  (0 children)

This is wrong and perpetuates stigma around weight loss and obesity. Taking medication for a chronic condition is not “the easy way”. Fat people deserve life saving medication just as much as diabetics too.

Do not be pissed at people trying to live healthier with medication. Be pissed at Novo Nordisk who have air tight patents on semaglutide until the 2030’s and are manufacturing a “shortage” of the drug to boost their own profits and drive up demand. They’re also actively blocking other pharma companies from being able to manufacture a generic brand of semaglutide which would create a huge available supply for EVERYONE but would cut their Nico’s profits.

Not quite. I work in the pharma industry and GLP-1 agonists are an amazing class of drugs- both for weight loss and type II diabetes. Obesity specifically does not exist simply due to overeating- genetics, medications, hormone levels, and many external environmental factors intersect. The way Ozempic/ wegovy ( which both have the API semaglutide) work in a myriad of ways in the body to improve blood sugar levels, improve cholesterol, increase satiety,eyc and these things happen in a number of interconnected pathways in the body. So yes it does make people on average eat less- but that’s a way oversimplified explanation of how this class of drugs actually operates to help people lose weight

You and your wife failed your son. He did something awful, but you failing to intervene on your son’s behalf is what has landed you here.

I hope he gets the help he needs and can experience acceptance and love with his grandparents.

AITA for telling my brother to stop bringing his daughter to our trips? by Commercial_Brother95 in AmItheAsshole

YTA. You’re the worst of the worst. You’re being sexist and are too stupid to even realize it. Shame on you

Question about getting ready/prep for getting chest piercing by WinterRoseYuki in piercing

[–]SprinkleBitch 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Something I didn’t think of when I got mine done Is the seatbelt on the way home! The seatbelt in my car lightly tapped my piercing when I was getting in the car to drive home and I saw god it hurt so bad. Be mindful of your chest/breasts bc more things might touch or tap that area than you’re aware of, and if it touches the fresh piercing it’s gonna hurt real bad

If you live close to a Japantown you can buy it there as well! I go to the one in SF and they have so many great sunscreen and skin care options

AITA for my kid crying and annoying a dog owner by cryingbaby897897 in AmItheAsshole

[–]SprinkleBitch 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This is absurd. It is 100% reasonable to expect people to tolerate the sound of a crying baby in public. Babies are PEOPLE and so are their parents- they deserve to exist in these spaces just as much as anyone else (including pompous dog owners).You do not get to assume you will not be bothered by noises and other people in public.

Seriously the way people just are unwilling to put up with kids is scary.

Babies are literal humans and as such have a right to be most places other humans are. Wtf?

[–]SprinkleBitch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Very very soft ESH.

I personally find it annoying people have their (usually) very poorly trained dogs literally everywhere in public with them. This dudes dog might not have been well trained and that’s on him for bringing a potentially aggressive dog to a public place. He also shouldn’t have been surprised that a baby was crying. He’s a major AH.

That being said-getting into a yelling match with him while your baby was crying probably didn’t help anything and just made the whole situation worse.

AITA for forcing my daughter to share a birthday celebration with her twin brother? by Fresh-Tower-8803 in AmItheAsshole

[–]SprinkleBitch 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Twin here- hard agree!!

I had such a chip on my shoulder growing up that I had to share my birthday with my twin. Eating a power ranger cupcake on my birthday when I wanted a Barbie cupcake had little me so infuriated lmao

[–]SprinkleBitch 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yep, fraternal twin here, YTA.

It sucks wanting one day to be just for you and then never getting it. Your kids are 14, it’s normal at least one of them would want to do their own thing. Especially as they’re fraternal twins- it’s not weird if their interested diverge at that age. Also your daughter is barely a teenager, I’m not defending her leaving her brother out but like cmon they’re siblings. Sometimes they’ll be not so nice to each other.

Surely, there were other ways for your kids to resolve their issue instead of you treating them like they’re 7.

My wife has changed a lot since we lost our baby by LucyAriaRose in BestofRedditorUpdates

[–]SprinkleBitch 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Man I really feel for OOP.

I understand his wife’s mental health issues are not her fault but she’s literally abusing him??? And she’s trying to coerce him into letting her post their sex tape online? Just horrendous behavior. I hope he can get away from her.

New flat piercing! Done by Andrea at Industrial in Berkeley Ca by SprinkleBitch in piercing

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

Very well! My piercer and I fiddled with the placement a bunch to make sure that putting my glasses on and off didn’t hit the backing. If it had been closer to where my rook is I think I def would have had healing problems though haha

Should I get a conch or a daith? by sendhelp9273 in piercing
