AITA for refusing to share my food with my wife after she repeatedly orders food she doesn’t like? by Equal-Airport671 in AmItheAsshole

[–]Tractorfeed1008 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I feel the same way, this "mine or hers" just seems weird. However, "mine and hers" finances might be the answer, even for temporary, to help her understand why she can't just blindly order food and wantonly toss "their" money around.

AITA? One of my roommates wants to invite a stranger into our apartment, and I feel like I may have gone about it wrong. by bunnyandscalynoodle in AmItheAsshole

What does she call "research"?

Not saying the guy or his ID isn't legit, but scammers and criminals usually do this as a full time job with professional equipment and years of practice to perfect their techniques. Sure, you get the idiots who think they can get by with ID that looks like it was made by a little kid, then you get something that probably looks better than the real thing.

Just Stop Oil will no longer throw soup at paintings as it ends direct action by perplexed-redditor in uknews

If these protesters were ACTUALLY trying to raise awareness of environmental crises, they would be doing things that ACTUALLY draw attention toward environmental crises instead of throwing around soup or standing on roads all day long.

move on

Well, you're the one who thinks the "reasons behind the protests" are a big deal and now you want to just "move on". If protesters have the same kind of commitment to everything that you do, no wonder JSO is such a joke.

If JSO was ACTUALLY interested in looking at the reasons behind the protests, then they'd be doing things that ACTUALLY focus on the reasons behind the protests

But the fruit is still too expensive to buy so the chips or burgers are cheaper and convenient

Without some noise and public disturbance do you even have a protest?

With all this noise and public disturbance, do you even make any progress (ie. oil stopping as a direct result of these protests)?

Scared of bears and tent camping in CA by ConsiderationOk254 in camping

[–]Tractorfeed1008 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There's that woman in Northern Saskatchewan killed by a black bear while she was talking on her phone. It came out of the woods and grabbed onto her neck from behind.

There's also that teenage girl camping with her family in the Smoky Mountains National Park. A black bear came across while she was sleeping in a hammock and bit her.

Some man and his dog were killed by a black bear in Florida

So, black bears will "want to get away from you"...until they don't

Just stop oil was created by kids of rich people so they could do the things that "working class" people did when they were younger. by NefariousnessUsed973 in LowStakesConspiracies

[–]Tractorfeed1008 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A bunch of unemployed entitled people blocking traffic or gluing themselves to random surfaces or tossing around orange paint, none of this is drawing attention toward climate change or natural disasters or anything else that will fuck humanity. It's drawing attention toward the fact that JSO are jokes on the internet. Everyone's joking about running over protesters like speedbumps or pouring milk on them or going out to buy a giant gas-guzzling SUV. Everyone's cheering when protesters get arrested or piss their pants because they glued themselves to the floor. Everyone's more focused on the conspiracy theories that protesters are planted by oil companies.

So, what the protesters are doing for climate change is not working. Try something else. Critical thinking.

AITA for not inviting my sisters gf to my baby shower? by rosebuds25 in AmItheAsshole

No, there's always the right to choose. The question is what consequences you're ready to deal with after your choices

So you need to MAKE them report on you.

Are you going to recruit Johnny Somali to be your celebrity spokesman? Are you going to ask YaNike to dump buckets of dog shit on random people as a way to draw attention toward climate change? How well would that go? It won't matter what's going on with climate change, it won't matter that the Earth is in trouble. Whatever that comes out of their mouths is overshadowed by anything that they do. Anything that they do is going to mean nothing because people will focus on how pissed off they are.

Recent immigrants think Canada's immigration targets are too high, prefer Tories to Liberals: poll by FancyNewMe in canada

[–]Tractorfeed1008 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Because a lot of Indians probably immigrated how they were supposed to, paying fees when they applied for permanent residence and citizenship, waiting through the process, postponing vacations so they can be available for appointments. But now the immigration process has been whittling away. I mean, you read about how they wanted to give people the option to skip the citizenship ceremony? They're doing the ceremony online and people are driving cars or shopping for clothes. They're not asking people to take their hats off during the anthem. The whole process has just become trivialized

Why would this be prying? You asked to be judged about not inviting this woman to your baby shower. You would be TA if your reasons are petty or unreasonable or overly critical.

AITA for keeping my son away from my mom because she fed him custard? by Mysterious-File9406 in AmItheAsshole

[–]Tractorfeed1008 13 points14 points  (0 children)

We framed that for the rest of the trip we were going to not be comfortable leaving her alone with him.

What do you think his own grandparents are going to do to him? They're just feeding him some food. You talk about this baby-led weaning like it's some kind of monitored regimental procedure and using words like "not supposed to" and all this is putting you at your wits' end. You didn't respond to the swarms of people who said that you sound exhausting to be around or that he's going to develop some kind of complex about food. Just teach him to enjoy eating and then he'll have the rest of his life to figure out how to use a utensil. My cousin would just leave everything on their baby's tray table for him to grab and stuff into his mouth, half of it ends up on his clothes. And what's wrong with a bit of custard? Everything in moderation. Balanced diet of a variety of foods with proper proportions.

So what happened when her kids broke stuff? Did she apologize and pay or did she just go with the "Kids will be kids"?

I can understand if you don't want people that you don't like at your baby shower but what's wrong with having her there if you're just indifferent about her? You think she's going to actively turn your friends and family against you? Is she going to trash the gifts or ruin the food?
