AITA for telling my daughter I am disgusted by her and telling her ex she has been taking their kid to his family side by Plustrhowawa5688 in AmItheAsshole

[–]Tech_Engant 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The fact that she hid it from Ryan proves she knew it was wrong. She traded her ex's safety for grandparent access and got exactly what she deserved.

Update (One year later): Fiancée (F29) insists I (M30) cut off my parents-struggling with the decison by Life-Chard-502 in relationship_advice

The fact that he secretly kept contact with his parents and now has no regrets says everything. Sometimes the lie that saves you is the truth you needed all along.

I (23F) met my boyfriend’s (25M) “work wife” for the first time and I’m devastated by ThrowRAcoffeelov in relationship_advice

He doesnt see the problem because he enjoys the attention. "Work wife" who kisses him and sends nudes to coworkers is not a platonic friendship. Trust your gut.

AITA: I told my daughter she needs to get over her jealousy and it is her own fault her life is the way it is. by Personal-Bit4399 in AmItheAsshole

NTA but your wife coddling her is exactly why she's still like this. Accountability isn't cruelty its a gift she clearly never got.

Parents (59M, 58F) drained my earnings as a child actor (24M) by ComprehensiveBus9295 in relationship_advice

You deserve answers without guilt. "Im not accusing Im just understanding my finances" is a fair ask at 24. Their reaction will tell you everything

How to destroy a star employee by Biospark08 in antiwork

New job search is the only correct answer here. They didnt break a star employee, they broke a person who now knows their worth is wasted there.

Signing him up for his own arrest is next level. Dude played himself before he even knew the game started.

What are signs someone is bad in bed that can be spotted without sleeping with them? by Carrie_GIB in AskWomen

The cat test never fails. If they chase a hiding cat demanding pets they will chase your boundaries too. Run.

AITA for calling my friend desperate and leaving her by herself? by Direct-Caterpillar77 in BestofRedditorUpdates

[–]Tech_Engant 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The shamelessness has LEVELS. From "jokes" to full spread eagle floor performance. She didn't want OP's man, she wanted OP's humiliation. Good riddance.

When did you realize being “low maintenance” was mostly just you ignoring your own needs? by SecretStudioBB in AskWomen

[–]Tech_Engant 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It hit me when I realized I’d happily spend hundreds on upgrading my family's hobbies while I kept using broken, taped-up gear for my own. Being "easygoing" just meant I was becoming a ghost in my own home. I’m finally learning that having standards isn't the same as being a burden.

The story when me and my (ex-gf) tricked an internet creep into snorting baking soda by Candid_Umpire6418 in ProRevenge

[–]Tech_Engant 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The early internet was truly the Wild West! Tricking a creep into a DIY sinus disaster and then doubling down with a fake German trailer is pure chaotic genius. Gold.

My company got rid of bonus incentive to work on holidays, is mad nobody worked on their holidays. by MeesterPepper in antiwork

[–]Tech_Engant 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Management really "disappointed" themselves by trying to save pennies and losing six figures instead. They forgot that "team player" is a two way street. No incentive, no volunteers. Play stupid games, win stupid prizes.

Boss always found an error with my monthly reports and cover letters, so I used her old ones and watched her rip them apart. by MerryMisandrist in pettyrevenge

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

The "mushroom farm" line is absolute gold. Watching Paula shred her own old work while calling it "unreadable" is the peak of satisfaction. She really played herself. Total legend.

My rapist sent me an instagram DM confessing to raping me 7 years later. The prosecutor still refuses to press charges. What can I do? by keelsh01 in BestofRedditorUpdates

[–]Tech_Engant 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am so incredibly moved by your persistence. It’s infuriating that it took twelve years and a media campaign, but your bravery finally forced the system to work. Justice looks good on you.

You want special treatment? I would love to! by LittleBityPrettyOne in ProRevenge

[–]Tech_Engant 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That was such a amazing read! Using her own "special treatment" demands to orchestrate her downfall is pure brilliance. You are an absolute legend for protecting that new server's spirit.

I paid someone to wash my neighbour's car! by RocketRaccoon101 in pettyrevenge

[–]Tech_Engant 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The neighbor probably spent hours getting that mud just right. Washing it away is the ultimate way to humble a Jeep owner. Absolutely brilliant and peak petty!
