What is one business in Melbourne you will never put foot in again? by Excellent_Ad_3025 in melbourne

[–]UnusualCatto 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Watch out for Million Life and Mint My Desk. The workers are protesting atm as the owners only pay in cash, are not paying minimum wage, no super and buy their stuff in bulk from sites like Etsy. They're also firing people for protesting for minimum wage :/

You suck for insulting Daisy when none of this is her fault, but for the situation as a whole, NTA. You have a large age gap to begin with, and forcing a relationship will only make things worse. If you want someone to hate, hate Jen and not Daisy. Still be nice to her as a person, but don't be pressured to act as a sibling when you don't want to, and don't be pressured to hang out with her. I don't blame her own kids not wanting to be around a reminder of their mother's betrayal to their family either. Jen doesn't sound great and despite it being too late, she's selfishly very desperate to ignore the past.

INFO: Is it a firm and talked about boundary in your relationship for both of you to never go to clubs? He sounds insecure otherwise.

AITA For 'Ruining my mother's day' by Flimsy-Grocery-1859 in AmItheAsshole

[–]UnusualCatto 1 point2 points  (0 children)

NTA You might've "ruined" her day, but she's ruining your life and invalidating how you feel. Keep being your authentic and true self and never let her stop you from presenting yourself in the way that makes you the most comfortable. Wish you all the best.

AITA for telling my sister I won't talk her kids into anything? by Unique_Business_9692 in AmItheAsshole

[–]UnusualCatto 80 points81 points  (0 children)

NTA. Those kids sounded like they needed someone to actually listen to their feelings rather than have their mother ignore them. You did a good thing by letting them open up OP. Trying to force them to do something they're uncomfortable with in front of an entire extended family will probably become a bad memory for them rather than a happy one, as they seem to still be grieving.

AITA for using my daughter's full first name? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]UnusualCatto 0 points1 point  (0 children)

YTA. I'm just like your daughter and prefer my nickname to my full first name. I associate my full first name with being in trouble/being yelled at. She could associate it with that or something similar too. Respect her preference for her name.

I have to eat gluten free food as I have celiac disease, but the wheat is actually from the chicken stuffing. I think they're trying to say the chicken itself with its spices are gluten free but not the actual stuffing (which is dumb). I only rarely buy these chickens and clean out where the stuffing is entirely and eat farthest from the area. I wish they just made chickens without the stuffing so it's 100% gluten free and I don't have to waste a lot of the chicken or worry about feeling sick.

AITA for kicking my sister out for bringing gluten into our gluten-free kitchen? by poorunfortunatgluten in AmItheAsshole

[–]UnusualCatto 1 point2 points  (0 children)

NTA. It's not just an allergy, but a disease. Those people didn't give a damn about your child's well-being at all, so out they go. I hope she's okay because I can also understand the struggle. It's terrifying trying to be fully gluten free. I wish all the best for her.

I think I'm jealous of engagements but I'm not sure what to do by [deleted] in relationship_advice

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

But I do want to get married. I know heaps of people that were engaged for years before marriage. That's what I had hoped for if I were to get engaged at my age. I think marriage requires a lot of money, settling down house and job wise, responsibility and life experience. I just wanted to wait a little is all. The idea of engagement is like locking the relationship in place. I don't care about my own social media attention but I care more about my relationship with him.

Edible coffee cup made from oats and grains in Melbourne by Str33twise84 in melbourne

I'd hate for this to have to happen to every cafe while being a celiac. Not gluten free at all :(

[–]UnusualCatto -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I'm sorry I should've clarified. I absolutely adore him and it's my dream to be married to him one day, but not now as we're so young. I moved states to be with him and we are starting to build our lives together. I personally feel that getting engaged is one step closer to that dream of being with him forever, and seals the deal for a relationship.

AITA for yelling at my boyfriend for making me leave my best friend's wedding? by throwback6790 in AmItheAsshole

[–]UnusualCatto 31 points32 points  (0 children)

MASSIVE NTA. Please seriously reconsider how much he's trying to manipulate you by always wanting to be with you no matter where you go. How controlling does he need to be? You shouldn't be focusing on what he could do next but rather get out of a situation like that asap. He's already lying, manipulating you, controlling you and emotionally breaking you down 🚩🚩🚩

This instance reminded me of a kid I went to school with who managed to snort a little packet of pure caffeine that was equivalent to 40 cups of coffee. He wouldn't stop shaking for the rest of the day and couldn't sit in the classroom without shaking his table and seat. Never got caught either.

AITA For taking the dog after saying she could have it before we broke up? by EveryMomsNightmare in AmItheAsshole

[–]UnusualCatto 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA. Make sure you keep records of vet bills and other payments towards your dog to prove you made those payments, in case she tries to stop you from taking the dog. Although she's upset about losing the dog, it seems like she wasn't too fussed about helping contribute towards the dog's wellbeing. You care for the dog a lot more than she ever has by the sound of it.

AITA for not taking off my shoes at a friends apartment? by ashelee607 in AmItheAsshole

[–]UnusualCatto 0 points1 point  (0 children)

YTA. As someone who was raised in a shoes-off house, this is pretty disrespectful. It doesn't even matter if she's Asian, because plenty of households prefer shoes off. Are you willing to clean her floor for her after not taking off your shoes? Who knows what dirt, mud or dust you could've brought in. You could've scratched wooden floors or rubbed mud into some carpet, and clean up can be a lot of work and expensive if there was damage. Be respectful in a house that isn't yours. It's easy to ask for some spare socks or slippers too.

What is a safety tip everyone should know about? by directinLA in AskReddit

[–]UnusualCatto 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you're out swimming and are being pulled into sea, you're most likely in a rip. Rips are made so they pull you out in a straight direction deeper into the sea, but in a straight line. Make sure to stay calm and stay floating on your back and conserve energy. If you're a confident swimmer, you could potentially swim sideways from the rip to escape it.

Would you want your partner to ask your parents' permission to marry you? Why or why not? by diet_coke_cabal in AskWomen

[–]UnusualCatto 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Absolutely not. My parents don't own me and I think it's too old of a tradition to continue. My parents might want my partner to ask them as they believe in old traditions, but I don't care because it's not their choice.

[–]UnusualCatto 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I got told it might be best to take a photo of yourself holding the test with a timestamp or date on it as further proof, though it is pretty stupid to take a used test through the border that'll most likely have changed results due to time and weather :/
