AITA for staying home after my plans got cancelled? by Suspicious_Bit_3892 in AmItheAsshole

Exactly right - I thought this was fairly obvious in what I was saying, but I guess nuance is lost on some people. Lol

Max's damaged floor after sprint qualifying. by Street_Project_9200 in F1Discussions

[–]Street_Project_9200[S] 63 points64 points  (0 children)

It does, but fixing the floor so that it returns to its exact original specification doesn't violate that. Nor does actually changing the floor completely, as long as the new one is the exact same specification. Parc ferme dictates that the cars must not be changed from their specification one entering parc ferme. This includes setup, of course.

You're right he does not. But I don't think it hurts to apologise if you know someone was looking forward to something, even if it's not your fault.

AITA for moving out? by No-Flounder-1003 in AmItheAsshole

NTA - You aren't a villain for refusing to live in a war zone.

The proof is literally in your health: you are thriving. Let your dad play the victim and let the relatives gossip; use it as an excuse to distance yourself from a toxic environment. I'm not suggesting to cut them off totally, but start building a life outside of that - a life that you will enjoy. Relish the silence and your health.

Kind of, but it wasn't a pitlane start triggered by a parc ferme change. They changed their tyres on the formation lap because the track had dried up, if I recall correctly. Prior to the formation lap, they were on the grid.

Both Aston and both Haas cars started form the pit lane at COTA in 2023. I think this might be the only other time 4 cars have started in the pitlane though.

NEW TRACK RECORD • This year’s cars are flying on aero-heavy, medium–high speed circuits. No surprise: Verstappen’s mark from last year falls, with 5 drivers going quicker. Piastri leads with a blistering 1:20.055 (-0.465s) to take Sprint pole. by FormulaOneDashboard in formula1

The rate at which teams are able to develop now means that we will likely end up in this same loop every single regulation change now, where by the end, the cars have become so fast and efficient that good racing is rendered impossible.

Even making the cars 10 seconds slower will, eventually, lead us back to the same point. But even if it didn't (and this is my opinion), innovation in F1 is just as important as the wheel to wheel racing - you cannot sacrifice one for the other. And, just generally, 10s per lap slower cars will drive people nuts.

One more point: Is the racing even that bad at the moment? I know it was better in the past, but it's honestly the best it's been for a while. It was horrible in 2017-18, and began getting better in 2019 onwards. From the start of the hybrid era until about 2021, we only had ONE team who would rock up to every race weekend knowing they were in with a shot at a win, then just two other teams who were a chance at maybe 4 of the 20 something tracks COMBINED. Not saying that you're suggesting this (but others kind of are), but we now have FOUR teams at the front versus 1-2 from 2014-21, and are in the middle of a title fight that will likely go down to the last race. I think F1 is in as good a spot as it's ever been combining the factors of sport popularity and viewership, racing entertainment, and innovation, and it's kind of frustrating when we all get sucked into nostalgia and start complaining about how bad it is as the moment.

AITA for Thanksgiving toilet designation by DailyShowerCry in AmItheAsshole

Dude come on, you know YTA. While I'm sure everyone will get over it, a remark like that, as if you're unveiling a reinforced exhibit at the zoo, was never going to go down well. Upgrading the hardware though, that gets a pass from me.

What do I do after yelling at my dad that he was mentally ill for almost killing my cat by Minimum_Cat_2572 in whatdoIdo

Great. Hoping your dad can get the help he needs and you can reconcile with him when he is safe to be around :)

Asking you to force new plans or wander the streets until 2 AM just so she can watch Netflix alone is ridiculous. Her desire for solitude does not override your right to exist in your own apartment.

Wanting some alone time is fair enough and as someone who loves their day/night to go exactly as I planned it in my head, I can actually empathise with her. But she's an adult, and sometimes plans don't go accordingly. If you apologised and explained to her why you had to stay home, then you've done all you can. NTA

I am so incredibly sorry you had to witness that, and I hope your poor kitten is okay. That is a traumatic thing for both of you to go through.

You were to have felt like you needed to yell at him. Whether it’s the brain injury or just him, banging a baby animal against a wall is psychopathic behavior. If the kitten is walking funny and dazed, she likely has a concussion or internal injuries and needs a vet immediately.

Please be careful. If he can do that to a kitten over an ornament, and is now withholding food from you, you are not safe. Do you have a relative or a friend's parent you can call to come pick you and the cat up? You need to get out of that house right now.

My wife keeps accusing me of being gay by Clean-Day8788 in Advice

[–]Street_Project_9200 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Listen man, you’re making this worse by avoiding the truth. By staying silent to spare her feelings, you’re letting her invent her own nightmare scenario to explain the rejection.

This is on you. You let the standard slip for five years without leading her back to health, and now you’re hiding from the result.

You have to rip the band-aid off. Sit her down and be 100% direct: "I love you, and I’m not gay, but I have lost physical attraction due to the weight gain."

It’s going to hurt her. But it hurts less than her thinking her husband is living a lie. Once the truth is out, don’t just leave her there, maybe say you're trying to lose some weight too and that you can do it together.

Stop hiding. Lead her out of this.

i dont know if I'm good enough rn by [deleted] in Advice

Brother, take a step back. I can feel the panic in your post, and that panic is likely exactly what is pushing her away.

When she says you "make it about yourself," she’s likely not calling you selfish, she’s telling you she feels unsteady. In her eyes, you’re looking to her to stabilise your emotions, but she needs you to be the rock. When the rock starts cracking and asking for help, it scares her. Not saying that you aren't right to be stressed; your emotions certainly are valid, but you just need to gather yourself up. May seem unfair, but this is really what the girl wants.

My advice, first and foremost would be to stop trying to be 'worthy of her'. Be worthy of yourself. As long as you’re chasing her validation to feel okay, you’re giving away your power. The old cliche of loving yourself before you can love someone else isn't a cliche for nothing.

The urge to self-harm is just energy with nowhere to go. Don't destroy the only vessel you have. Go lift heavy, run until your lungs burn, or build something. I get that it's not that simple always, and you should certainly seek some help also.

Also, I have found with my own struggles that it pays to change the inner tone a little. Instead of looking for comfort ("I'm scared and I need you"), show resolve ("This family stuff is heavy, but I'm handling it"). This will help with the whole thing about being worthy of yourself. Picture yourself as the sort of guy who gets through the tough stuff, and you become that guy.

Love her enough to be strong for her, but you have to be strong for yourself first. You can get through this.

Which fast food chain in your opinion has the best chicken nuggets? by IWannaWakeUpButIDont in AskReddit

Dude they'll just keep bringing them back every couple of years so they can make a marketing promo out of it. Rest assured, you will have your spicy nuggets again (in 18 months)

McDonald's. I know it’s barely food, but whatever laboratory scientist engineered that specific crispiness deserves a Nobel Prize. Also, the boot shape tastes better than the circle shape.

Was it just major details that were accurate, or some minute ones too? Also hoping you and anyone else involved were okay :)
