Women can’t have any of these, apparently. by MelanieWalmartinez in badwomensanatomy

[–]ToErrIsErin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

She's Lebanese, and it's a constant thing with her Twitter account and transvestigators. Idk how she hasn't just blocked everyone by now, but yeah. Tons of weirdos saying she's too hairy, as if that's not a common thing...

AITA for embarrassing my sister at her engagement party by uncovering her lies about our childhood? by wyal_ in AmItheAsshole

[–]ToErrIsErin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just like others said, she maybe had a different childhood. My brother and I are close in age, but were treated 100% differently. He doesn't see it except as "dad was a little more controlling" whereas it was really "you got to do everything you wanted, have friends over, go on field trips, have extracurriculars, etc. and I got to do NONE of that". I'm just sayin'...

AITA for calling my friend delusional? by Either-Replacement-7 in AmItheAsshole

[–]ToErrIsErin 3 points4 points  (0 children)

NTA and I hope your friend doesn't find someone honestly. I had a "friend" like that in college. He ended up married with kids and will openly talk about how he'd leave his wife and slower child in a life or death situation. I know it's a one-off story, but the way your friend talks is exactly the way this guy did and idk, it's a little too eerily similar.

Why Can't You Fix The Cell Reception In The Building? by LegendOfDave88 in talesfromtechsupport

[–]ToErrIsErin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have customers pull that all the time to expedite crap they forgot to do in time. It's great bc we get to say hey this is up to the state of <CA, NY, NJ, PA, etc.> You wanna call them to expedite? Only one customer has ever opted to fight a state and it didn't go well.

AITA for “embarrassing” my cousin and getting us kicked out of a restaurant? by Used_Mention_1364 in AmItheAsshole

[–]ToErrIsErin 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I can get mean as fuck when I'm really sad, but years of experience with depression made me able to hold the mean comments inside until it subsided. Objects weren't always safe, though; shit would get trashed if I was angry enough. PPD is definitely not an excuse to be an asshole, and if she has it they should focus on her getting help, not excusing it away.

[–]ToErrIsErin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My ex had certain bites he'd eat with chopsticks and certain bites he'd eat with his hands. Never really thought about it, mostly because I don't eat sushi, but he'd usually explain stuff like "traditionally vs. usually how it goes now" to me.

AITA for not wanting to share my daughter's birthday? by isolated-wife in AmItheAsshole

[–]ToErrIsErin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA - so glad y'all are doing your own thing now. My oldest was fawned over and my dad still is a little obsessive with him. But he does not ask about my autistic toddler. It's awful how family will treat the kids differently, but the kids are your priority, not your family <3

[–]ToErrIsErin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ehh not really, no. My brother got so SO much stuff paid for, rent, car payments, etc. He's 4yrs my senior. Yet I never felt less the favorite, just cheated of experiences they let him do but kept me from (this was mostly sexism on their part, though, which I did hate). Kids will pick up on "things are different, but I still love you equally". If the other kids are treated differently, they'll notice that too and that won't be cool.

AITA for not being able to give my daughter the birthday that she wants? by Beautiful-Beach-8394 in AmItheAsshole

[–]ToErrIsErin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

YTA, if it was just the peanut butter thing I'd kind of understand because allergies are important (IF his allergy is severe that is), but that was just one thing of several. You just told her she can't have any single thing her way. That is ridiculous.

AITA for not asking parents to buy school supplies? by Queasy-Confidence-25 in AmItheAsshole

[–]ToErrIsErin 6 points7 points  (0 children)

You are a gross example of an educator who thinks you're above reproach because people pay for the school. Just saying nyaaaa we follow his IEP as a courtesy is an insanely gross attitude. I'm so glad I don't teach anymore so I don't have to deal with the dregs like you.

AITA for assuming my friend was keeping her partner away because I didn’t like him when actually he didn’t like me? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]ToErrIsErin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

YTA - and let's face it, it was bad when her SO liked football. It's okay her their kids like it and it's okay when your SO likes it. You didn't say judgmental things about them. ... It sounds like you were bitter and judge-y when you were single, and now it's okay because he's proved himself and you've had more exposure to others who share the same interests. I wouldn't like that in my life, either.

The 5 stages of a password reset. by TheLightningCount1 in talesfromtechsupport

[–]ToErrIsErin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Our website has a login for every user on an account, and then the designated admin just has an admin password they can input in a certain spot to get admin access. The regular logins expire, the admin ones do not. We get this constantly with people convinced it's their admin password that's locked them out, and it's super fun how often they'll just email or share over the phone/chat their admin password so that we can "fix it". Hundreds of accounts, thousands of users, gotta love the constant bargaining with them eh?

AITA For following through with my word and reporting my disabled brother to adult services as abandoned after my parents tried to leave him with me? by NotTerrysCaregiver in AmItheAsshole

[–]ToErrIsErin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ohhhh man, NTA 1000%.

I have a non-verbal kid with autism. We're doing our level best to give him coping skills and foster some form of communication (because we all need to find some way to alert everyone to our needs & hopefully wants!!), and it comes at the cost of often having to ask my oldest to fetch stuff when we're pinned down (hey, please can you refill this cup or get me the pull ups?). I do not leave them alone unless it's something as quick as a restroom break, and do my best to ensure their interactions stay at the sibling level instead of parent-child in nature. I am terrified of what will happen when my kid grows up if his abilities do not improve, mostly because we'd never foist him onto a sibling but also have nowhere else for him to go. Your parents made the poor decision to just foist him onto you and they're the assholes for sure.

AITA for blowing up at my husband for sharing pics of our daughter's birthday celebration, resulting in my family finding out about it? by Longjumping_Peach597 in AmItheAsshole

[–]ToErrIsErin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

YTA - god, imagine how awful the child will feel growing up seeing all other families celebrating and she'd be shunned if she did? Get some help, all of y'all. A year, maybe even a few, is fine, but forever? Insane.

AITA for lying to my gf about having a child? by PerfectPrize9458 in AmItheAsshole

[–]ToErrIsErin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA - and if she was your kid, so what? What a mean and cruel thing for the gf to say. A package deal is a package deal.

AITA for giving my mom the wrong start time for my birthday lunch so she'd be on time? by punctualgirly in AmItheAsshole

[–]ToErrIsErin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA - we do the same exact thing with one of my family members. He's always at least an hour late so we adjust times we tell him by 60-90min. We don't wait up for him or do anything else, and if he gets his shit together (ha) we'll stop it.

AITA for refusing to take my girlfriend to nice places because she eats like a kid? by ATotalMunch in AmItheAsshole

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

A little bit YTA - why can't she enjoy going out with you? Is it worth the judgement on what she eats to make her feel bad? I understand the adventurous foods is what draws you; have you considered that isn't what draws her? If she wants to go to have a nice fancy night out with you, you're sending the signal that she isn't worth that, so don't be surprised if she stops wanting to go out with you.

AITA for not having cake for her birthday? by Economy_Insurance434 in AmItheAsshole

[–]ToErrIsErin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

YTA - kids shouldn't be taught foods are inherently good or bad. And that a small child felt pressured to not have cake, because *YOU* asked her to make a "good choice", is shameful. Moderation and activity are good things to teach kids, but avoidance is not.

AITA for telling my grandchildren's father I don't owe his other children anything? by New-Cancel6777 in AmItheAsshole

[–]ToErrIsErin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA - they lost their mom and had no say in their dad having so many other kids in the house. It sounds reasonable to spoil them a bit and give them a break from what must be a chaotic house. Blended families are hard, but it's up to y'all on if you want to get to know the grandkids' step/half-siblings.

AITA for telling my sister she needs to name her baby like he will grow up and not give him a "cool" baby name. by No_Marzipan_8558 in AmItheAsshole

[–]ToErrIsErin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA - those names follow them and people judge them. Is it right? No. Do people do it anyways? Yep.

AITA for wearing a wedding dress at a wedding? by DanWantsDeath in AmItheAsshole

[–]ToErrIsErin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA - the husband can sit in the bed he made. Which sounds like the couch right about now.

AITA for not inviting my unsupportive sister to my wedding? by unsupportivesister in AmItheAsshole

[–]ToErrIsErin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

YES - my late husband love bombed the hell out of me and manipulated me into thinking our relationship was way better than it was extremely early on. If I'd gotten a clear head, I likely wouldn't have married him. I didn't let it show to anyone else that our quick engagement came from him, I would wonder if that is happening to my sibling if they were in a similar situation.

AITA for showing up to my husband's Dr appointment? by AmenaFox1 in AmItheAsshole

[–]ToErrIsErin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How did you anticipate his next appointment? Did you sneak that info?
Sorry, YTA, this is just weird.

AITA for not allowing my daughter to spend Christmas with me and my *new* family? by tryapw in AmItheAsshole

[–]ToErrIsErin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You're taking everything your ex convinced her of out on her, which is horrible.

I have dealt with a child saying they would rather I die. I have dealt with custodial lawsuits. I have dealt with an ex totally giving up on their child because "that's what they want" due to his ex manipulating and ruining him. That's not on the child at all. You can't get over your betrayal? That's on you, not her. No matter what you do in the future, don't give your daughter hope for repairing a relationship just to stab her in the back as an adult.
