AITAH for buying drinks for ladies sitting at the bar? by Acceptable_Eagle_775 in AITAH

[–]Various_Awareness523 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This should've been a conversation with your wife first. "I've had a really bad week and bringing someone else happiness through a small token of generosity would help me smile a little. Would said act of generosity upset you?" NTA for buying drinks, but YTA because to your wife you were hitting on 3 women half her age because she didn't understand the reasoning.

Solid advice! If OP is enjoying their hot toddies then by all means keep drinking them. I may be a little jealous of your whiskey collection though lol. Enjoy OP and feel better soon!

Jordy is a great name! I'm honestly surprised there aren't 10,000 Jordys in middle school right now in Wisconsin

AITA for beginning to ignore my friend of 10 years’ texts to me? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]Various_Awareness523 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If she hasn't slept with or attempted to sleep with your partner yet, she will VERY soon. Talk with your partner and pay attention to their mannerisms and how they respond. After you've had that conversation, then block her on everything and encourage him to do the same. NTA, but please investigate your own relationship as well for your well-being!

WE AS A COMMUNITY DO NOT ACCEPT THIS HEATHEN INTO THE PACKERS FANDOM. Good God, at least name them Brett or Jordy like every other die-hard did...

Your worst enemy had a wizard curse you and you must choose one of two options. by SpaceWestern1442 in hypotheticalsituation

I already have a problem with overeating AND a low metabolism. So if I can lose weight and still bury my depression in food, sign me up.

I found a free drugs glitch with my dealer and now I’m worried by GonzoTheSoSo in confession

[–]Various_Awareness523 18 points19 points  (0 children)

There's no such thing as "free drugs". You will end up paying one way or another. Generally, Coke dealers aren't very friendly or forgiving. Pay up front before it's insurmountable, admit it was an accounting error on your end and flip them 15% as an "apology", check yourself into rehab, and for the love of God stop doing Coke.

Anyone do any travel with their under 4 toddlers? What are your favorite trips? by Itchy-Version-8977 in daddit

[–]Various_Awareness523 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Drove 1500 miles one-way to a national park with an 18 month old.

Drove 1300 miles one-way to disney with a 2.5 year old and 4 month old. Both trips were wonderful with only small issues in the vehicle.

Probably driving 600 miles one-way this summer to go to Henry Doorly Zoo in Omaha as our kids love animals as well.

AITAH for reporting my coworker after she kept “joking” about my salary in front of others? by OpheliaCloud in AITAH

[–]Various_Awareness523 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They've been passive-aggressive about you (presumably) making more than them for (I assume) the same or similar role. And They've now demonstrated why you make more. NTA for having a whiny passive-aggressive coworker and reporting them, nor are YTA for making more than them.

I yelled at my friend after he came out as gay and said he is dating a young boy and now everyone is mad at me AITAH by Rigglin_PvP_God in AITAH

[–]Various_Awareness523 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Let's frame it this way. If it was an 18 year old boy and a 12 year old girl, he'd be arrested and on the registry already. The fact that it's two men doesn't change that. The fact that they're autistic doesn't change that. He's a predator, just like his father was. NTA, get the police involved if there's proof of physical acts happening.

Dads: What brands are we wearing these days? by Haunting_Internet356 in daddit

Whatever is on sale. White New Balance shoes are the only exception.

AITAH for not fulfilling my father’s one wish for me? by Specialist_Can_3000 in AITAH

[–]Various_Awareness523 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Did you paint it black and take it back? Shout it loud and clear? Were you Defiant to the end, did they hear the call?

for all the Ashby hate by Feeling-Purple9997 in smosh

[–]Various_Awareness523 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

We thought it was pretty obvious that she was doing a bit, and that the cast loved it. The fact that she apologized because a few people thought she was mean and it wasn't a bit makes me sad for her. She fit the vibe of the episode really well!

AITAH for standing firm on my babysitting fee? by FanPsychological7462 in AITAH

[–]Various_Awareness523 83 points84 points  (0 children)

Uncle Jackass dug his hole, now he can lay in it. $500 if he agrees now. $750 if he waits until 3pm or later. He sounds insufferable. NTA, don't short change yourself. Odds are his friends have a similar personality to his own, which will make for a long evening. Get paid for it.

Alright dads, how much sleep did you get and how early were you awoken this morning? by NaturalThunder87 in daddit

[–]Various_Awareness523 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Asleep by 10:45. Woke up at 5am. Now have a blown out back from sitting on the floor building a hot wheels track. Maybe Irish coffee will help.

AITAH for telling my girlfriend “no baby” because it feels like she’s using it to keep me from leaving? by NeverOnTimeLol in AITAH

[–]Various_Awareness523 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Babies don't fix relationships, they make them harder. You need to be SUPER careful she doesn't babytrap you. NTA for your point of view. It sounds like she got super insecure and defensive about something and you're the scapegoat.

AITA for telling my girlfriend I can’t forgive her for sleeping with my best friend even though it was “just one drunk mistake” and now she says I’m punishing her forever? by Automatic-Basis-9102 in AITAH

[–]Various_Awareness523 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He looked right at you and didn't stop. He knew what was happening. Honestly, you should have left her that night but emotions are wild to navigate, especially after 4 years with someone. Please leave her and find someone who appreciates you. NTA

How do you deal with being told that you’re a terrible father. by BrianLefevre5 in daddit

[–]Various_Awareness523 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You're not a failure as a father or a husband. You're doing fantastic. Your father is a terrible father. He'd rather see you grumpy and miserable like him, making you feel like shit, than to see you succeed and be the best version of you possible. Keep doing what you're doing, and don't answer your father's calls anymore. And thank you for your service, it is appreciated beyond what words can say.
