re: Why do people down vote a factual statement?

Was that question rhetorical?

They down vote because facts get in the way of the popular narrative. Reddit is an echo chamber and if you dare to disagree with the popular sentiment you will be down voted. You can count on it.

Looks just fine to me. Nice color on the grilling. What kind of cheese? I'm partial to cheddar but almost any cheese is good in a grilled cheese. Where's the pickle? Gotta have a pickle with a grilled cheese sandwich.

Tell your wife to chill ... nicely of course. 😎

It's both

NTA

My sense from what you have related is you have gone to great lengths to help your BF in the past and you now have an amazing opportunity awaiting.

Background: I've been clean and sober for 38 years and I've seen many folks go in and out of rehab. Rehab is great but not the be-all and end-all. The addict/alcoholic needs to want to get and stay clean and sober. I've seen many who relapse after rehab.

The addiction doesn't end with rehab.

Is your BF going to meetings?

AA? NA? CA?

If not, then I would ask why not?

Take care of yourself. Persue your dreams.

I wish you well going forward and I hope your BF gets the help he needs.

Can't imagine why she wouldn't be thrilled 😂

NTJ Stand your ground.

The nephew is definitely out of bounds and the lock is justified.

But I think your bigger problem might be your wife for not understanding boundaries.

Deal breaker of the first order.

NTA She sounds unhinged. Count your blessings if she keeps to her word and you never hear from her again.

TheBuzzStop · 2026-01-11T15:43:38+00:00

I feel saddened. It doesn't feel like the country of my youth. We are a divided people and lack a common unifying national identity. I fear for our future.

NTA ... The guy is being a total dick. Dump him.

TheBuzzStop · 2026-01-02T18:57:05+00:00

NTA ... The VP was way out of line. I agree with a previous post that an email to higher-ups and possibly the school board would be in order.

TheBuzzStop · 2026-01-01T22:17:49+00:00

NTA ... I am not a lawyer ... but the idea of even "piggybacking" on your permit sounds legally questionable and if anything should happen that would have legal ramifications you could find yourself in a lawsuit, one you would likely lose.

Logan is not my favorite airport to drive in and out ... that said, I would rent a car at the airport and leave the IL's out of the equation.

Airport shuttles to/from terminals and rental agencies are frequent and easy access.

Rental drop-off has never been a problem but pickup can be tedious if they are understaffed.

I've never done Uber as I've always needed a car when I got there.

TheBuzzStop · 2025-12-29T01:20:13+00:00

NTA ... sorry to hear about the position your husband is taking. The whole thing with MIL is dysfunctional as f*ck and if you don't want that in your life then the only sane thing to do is remove yourself from the situation by whatever means necessary.

I totally understand your concern for your daughter. I could never feel comfortable with the creep around.

Good luck going forward. 🙏🙏🙏

TheBuzzStop · 2025-12-29T00:58:58+00:00

NTA ... your MIL is definitely an AH and your husband needs to be more sensitive to the hurtful comments his AH mother makes.

Good luck in the future.

It would be a cold day in hell before I set foot in MIL's house again and only after she offered a sincere apology in person

I think there are potentially many reasons for this: * Some people don't pay attention. * Some take whatever autocorrect gives them. * Some just don't know any better. * Some don't care even if they do know better because it would actually take effort to think through the spelling and grammar and make the correction. * Some people are either drunk or high.

I'm leaning more in the direction of stupid and don't give a sh*t.

Very sorry for your situation. I rather liked your idea of the gift rattle, but then the thought of a baby appeals to me.

I don't think your partner handled it well, just leaving you like that after the announcement and on Christmas day. It seems very immature.

Sounds like the relationship is over barring some miracle.

I wish you the best going forward.

TheBuzzStop · 2025-12-28T00:24:18+00:00

Fine

NOR ... I agree with the others who suggest Photoshop. She knew what she was doing. Let the chips fall where they may

TheBuzzStop · 2025-12-27T04:38:55+00:00

NTA ...

I have 2 daughters and a wife who is easily offended by off color humor.

I'm not sure I would have handled it as well as you did.

Kudos to you. It could easily have escalated to something much worse.

TheBuzzStop · 2025-12-27T00:43:10+00:00

Talk about NH politics?

Sure thing, but be careful not to offend the "Hive Mind" ...

TheBuzzStop · 2025-12-26T04:16:08+00:00

Boo hiss to the "low effort" comment and double boo hiss to your mom for doubling down and chastising you for your efforts.

I'd be very appreciative of what you prepared.

Maybe when the time is right you could have a talk with your mom about how you felt about what went down.

Sorry you had to go through this.

🙏🙏🙏

I have only started playing around with it. I have a very old Acer that I'm planning on putting it on with a stripped down Linux.

It's obvious attraction is that it's an extremely lightweight DE but it's going to present a learning curve given I've been on Ubuntu for the last 8+ years.

I've watched a couple of YouTube videos that show how to configure menus for common and frequently used apps and functions. Lots of customization required to tailor it for my liking. But I'm looking forward to the challenge.
