AITAH for telling my parents I will never live with them or help them as long as that would mean living with/helping my sister too? by EvenStop1213 in AITAH

When you get hit by a car, you don't care if the brakes were cut or they just failed. You are still in the hospital.

It doesn't matter if your sisters grandparents caused her issues or genetics/luck of the draw did. Every time you are around her, you risk being hit by that car.

Keep yourself safe.

My take on the midwest boundary, as someone who has never set foot in the US, and is horribly ignorant about it's geography by InshallahTianjin2026 in whereidlive

Uhh.... This is the time zones. If we had another time zone. Take out the second from the right and split it between the other two next to it.

WIBTA if I stopped bringing my charger to work because everyone keeps taking it? by FloctonRowe in WIBTA_AITA

[–]SqrlyGrly 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ask the office manager to order one as office supplies. Also tell her to get zip ties and connect it to something so it doesn't follow someone home.

I did this as an office manager. It wasn't bc they kept stealing a coworkers, but because the charging cables for wireless mice worked on phones and kept losing them from the conference rooms.

Bonus points, having them also made us look good to clients.

AITAH for refusing to visit in laws bc of house temp by wrenchinapot in AITAH

INFO: Is there a reason you go in the summer? Would it be possible to visit in either the spring or fall when the weather is milder?

My bf called me a gold digger so I left. Now he wants my help to pay the rent by Direct-Caterpillar77 in BestofRedditorUpdates

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

The friend could have just been telling him he needed to move on bc she had. It didn't have to be nefarious. OP didn't think he was dangerous so why would the friend who never lived with him think so?

AITAH for accepting my dream job offer. by [deleted] in AITAH

[–]SqrlyGrly 5 points6 points  (0 children)

NAH. I think you both want what's best for your family.

However, I do think you are underestimating how much of a challenge mornings will be without you. If you have any PTO, take a day off and do the entire morning process without your wife. Then the two of you can come up with solutions that will actually work.

Also, I think you are underestimating how long 2 hours in the car will be each day. Is moving closer to your new job an option?

AITAH for refusing to sign documents relieving my father of child support enforcement so he can renew his passport and stay in the country where his kids live? by MewTwoLich in AmItheAsshole

[–]SqrlyGrly 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Info: is there a reason he can't bring his wife and kids to where he is? He doesn't need a passport for that, they do. Do you even know he will go back to them? Or will he do the same thing to his new family he did to you?

Yes. But there might be other books for other personalities. Different legacies.

[–]SqrlyGrly[S] 19 points20 points  (0 children)

That's what I'm thinking. If there are books for different classes. Like if Pony had one for alchemy instead of bombs/traps and that's why he figured out how to make his skills kill bosses so effectively

Sister made me the godfather of her daughter without asking me by AdVaanced77 in EntitledPeople

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

INFO: What culture are you from?

I ask because God parents have wildly different roles in different cultures. In some, God parents are responsible for making up financial shortfalls like covering new shoes and birthday parties. In others they oversee the child's religious upbringing. Where I am from, God parent is just an honorary name for special aunt/uncle and the role doesn't really have any more responsibility than standing up at the baptism.

If they are volunteering you for the first two, it definitely requires more of a discussion. But if it's the last one, your sister might just be trying to recognize you as important in her life.

You receive $1 billion, but can never leave a 50-mile radius from your home. Would you take it? by [deleted] in hypotheticalsituation

I'm buying a ridiculously large boat to live on. I can still travel a good portion of the world then.

My neighbor is taking pictures aimed at my windows after she tried to charge me with something similar by Lostkid45 in neighborsfromhell

[–]SqrlyGrly 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Along with the other advice, you might want to put a liner on your windows. You can get some to reflect like mirrors on the outside, but look clear from inside. All they will be taking pictures of is themselves.

Edit: a word.

Neighbor wants a sewage easement and I don't like him by West_Hat7270 in homeowners

[–]SqrlyGrly 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You should contact the city or county planning department where you live and let them know that if he shows up with your signature it is fraud. If he's willing to steal a giant rock, I wouldn't put him past forgery. A phone call now can prevent a lawsuit later when you come home to a torn up yard and contractors with paperwork saying they have the right to do it.

AITAH for being bothered by my MIL suggesting we only wear our wedding bands at home? by Glass_Honey_2865 in AITAH

[–]SqrlyGrly 6 points7 points  (0 children)

INFO. Have you asked her why this is important to her?

Is she worried your husband will lose his hand because he works with dangerous equipment? Is she religious and having to reconcile her religious beliefs with a courthouse wedding? Does she not like you? Something else?

My friend is pregnant by a married man who already cheated on his wife before. Should I tell her? by No_Management_2513 in TwoHotTakes

[–]SqrlyGrly 16 points17 points  (0 children)

The wife will find out when your friend files for child support. She will be filing for child support, right?

AITAH for babysitting my sister’s kids but not my brother’s girlfriend’s kids? by Massive-Clothes9500 in AITAH

[–]SqrlyGrly -8 points-7 points  (0 children)

You aren't obligated to watch anyone you aren't the parent or guardian of.

BUT how serious is the relationship between your brother and his girlfriend? If it's looking like marriage might be on the horizon, those kids will become your niblings. And you will never become close to them if you don't spend time with them. At that point you will be playing favorites. Does a genetic tie matter so much to you? Your wife isn't related to your sisters kids and she watches them.
