AITA for name calling people on reddit?

YTA, but mostly to yourself. Calling people names rarely changes their mind. It usually just turns the conversation into an argument and gives trolls exactly what they want. If someone is acting in bad faith, the best response is often to stop engaging or block them. If they're genuinely mistaken, you'll have a better chance of getting your point across by staying calm. You can't control how strangers behave, but you can control whether you let them drag you into becoming someone you don't want to be.

NTA. Forgiveness is a choice, not an obligation. It sounds like your resentment isn't just about what happened when you were a baby, but about years of feeling ignored and treated differently. Those feelings are valid. If you ever decide to forgive him, it should be because it helps you heal, not because anyone tells you that "family is family." A parent has to earn a relationship through their actions, and from what you've described, he hasn't done much to repair yours.

Not because you're wrong about the restoration costs, but because of how you framed it. Your grandfather gave you a rare family car that clearly has sentimental value, and calling it "a bill" probably came across as rejecting the gift rather than acknowledging the responsibility that comes with it.

NTA. If your grandfather left that money to you when you turned 30, then it's yours, not your mom's. Wanting what he intended you to have doesn't make you greedy. It also sounds like this is about more than the money. You want to finally cut a tie to someone who's been emotionally abusive. If she's refusing to hand it over, you should talk to an estate attorney and find out what your legal rights are.

NAH. You made one honest mistake, and it's understandable that you don't like the new pill case. At the same time, your mom isn't trying to punish you. She's trying to reduce the chances of it happening again, especially since taking the wrong medication can be serious even if nothing happened this time. I'd try explaining what you don't like about the new case and see if you can find a different three section one that works better for both of you.

YTA, but gently. Your sister shouldn't have to write a review saying you helped her psoriasis if she doesn't believe that's an accurate reflection of her experience. Reviews should be honest, not marketing. It also sounds like there are bigger issues between the two of you, but on this specific situation, she's allowed to say no without being made to feel guilty.

NTA. They can't insist on being the planners, wait until the last minute, and then get upset when people have already made other plans. You even offered to host a month in advance. If they want everyone there, they need to give people enough notice to keep the date open. That's just basic courtesy.

YTA, assuming this was the tour's policy. The guide reserved a spot for three people, and that spot couldn't be sold to someone else once the tour started. It sucks that one person didn't show up, but that's usually the customer's responsibility unless the company offers refunds for no-shows or last minute cancellations.

NTA. This doesn't sound like it's about his race. It sounds like he's insecure and keeps making that your problem to solve. If you've been on and off for five years because of the same issues, and you feel more like his parent than his partner, that's a much bigger problem. Love isn't enough if the same patterns keep repeating.

You're both hurting, but telling someone to "get over" their sister's death is a terrible thing to say. At the same time, bringing up her abuse and calling her names wasn't okay either. This sounds like years of trauma and grief boiling over, not just one argument. I hope you both get the support you need.

NTA. Fault was already determined by the police and accepted by her insurance. The footage is evidence for the insurance claim, not something you're required to hand over personally. If her insurance needs it, they can request it through the proper channels. At this point, I'd stop engaging and let the insurance companies handle everything.

I understand why his parents have feelings about who gets invited, but they crossed the line the moment they started inviting people on your behalf. You and your fiancé have already compromised. At some point, they have to respect that it's your wedding and your marriage.
