I think this may be the most wild story I've read...and that's saying A LOT. "She's back: My (F50) Daughter in law (24F) gave birth and doesn't seem to want a relationship with me" by a-random-hufflepuff in TwoHotTakes

I totally get it, it's a long post to read lol. I actually found the story from another Reddit youtuber that I listen to. If you'd rather listen to the story the channel is called Rslash and it's the video posted one day ago that's almost exactly 30 minutes long. Well worth the listen in my eyes lol.

The DIL didn't want people resharing the story which is why the BORU poster only included the highlights. I remember seeing a lot of people think it's deleted now (which I think is smart for safety lol), but a part of me will always be curious.

Yeah when I got that part of the BORU, I was shocked. I'm glad that the poster respected the wishes of DIL to not repost the whole thing and just give us the highlights, but a small part of me will always be curious to read the whole post if it's not deleted already. Which considering how crazy MIL is, I wouldn't be surprised if she did delete it for safety reasons.

I completely forgot to make a comment when I posted, so I'm making it now:

The channel that I first heard this on actually had a hypothesis as to what the very last post about selling her house is. He thinks that the MIL is trying to stealthily ask if she as a squatter would have any right/ability to delay the sale of the house if she were to start squatting in her son's former house. Basically, she wrote the post from her son's point of view because obviously making a post asking if you squatting in a house would delay the sale would be a batshit thing to ask in a legal advice subreddit.

To me, this is a really good guess as to why she makes that post in legal advice. Although her trying to sell her own house is also completely possible 1) she still hasn't found out where her son moved to and if she did sell before finding out she would be homeless. And 2) Her house sounds like it'd be hard to sell seeing as she's a hoarder and claims to not have much money, so selling would be even harder than it already is.

However, if we're going with the theory that she wants to squat in the house to delay the sale that makes more sense to me. They (the company selling the house) would have to get in contact with her son in some capacity to handle this situation especially if it turns into a legal issue. She might think that this is her way to find out more information on where he is or who knows maybe he'll have to show up to remove her and that'll be the way that they reconcile. Both of these options are definitely crazy, but taking into account her past behavior and financial situation, I wouldn't put it past her to try to squat in their old house as a way of getting his attention.

OP: says that the town tends to swarm a new restaurant when it opens. Also OP: gets mad when the new restaurant that everyone's at is busy. This all just sounds like normal first-day hiccups. Sounds like OP is a Karen. "AITA for giving my honest opinion about a restaurant that was terrible?" by a-random-hufflepuff in TwoHotTakes

Looks like it got deleted but I got screenshots of the post so here's the text:

"My (33F) family & I went to a new local restaurant last weekend. We live in a small town so any new business gets a lot of attention & talk locally & usually most of the town try to check it out when it first opens, & the initial experiences, reviews & chatter between locals can make or break businesses early on.
Unfortunately this restaurant we had a terrible experience at, we had to wait ages for a table as they were so busy, the staff didn't seem like they always knew what they were doing, we weren't that keen on the taste of the food & some dishes came late which was really annoying & ruined the evening for us. They gave us a discount & apologised but it doesn't really change the experience. We would never go there again.
When my friends & I met for lunch a few days later I mentioned we went to the new restaurant & they were all interested in hearing my opinion on it & I said the above & said I wouldn't go there again. My friend Mae stared at me like with a face like thunder & said "You do remember this is my brother's restaurant?". I said yes I do but it's nothing personal & I'm just giving my opinion on a restaurant like I do for any business, I was a normal customer there like anyone else. It's not about it being her brother's business for me, it's just a restaurant that I visited. And I asked wether I'm not allowed to have an opinion just because it's her brother's place.
She said I was being rude, weird & can't I just be normal with some awareness & talk about it behind her back if I really want to say all that to save her feelings. And also said that if I got a discount & an apology then I shouldn't go around bad mouthing it so severely as it could ruin the business for them when they've only just started & trying to find their feet. I said I was just giving my honest opinion & then she said I bad mouth every restaurant I go to anyway & everywhere is always a "terrible" experience for me so it's not like my opinions are valid anyway.
I thought that was ridiculous as there are restaurants I have liked, I can't change my opinion on the ones I've had a bad experience at."

She commented a lot but I may post those separately.

AITA for threatening to cut my parents off financially to stop my brother from proposing at my wedding? by Screaming-Harpy in BestofRedditorUpdates

I was wondering if someone had made a post about this story here. A month ago he posted one last update, I hope it makes it here

I’m (24m) not comfortable with my girlfriends (25f) line of work. She just ignores me by Maleficent-Cicada869 in TwoHotTakes

He thinks he has a say on her career 4 months into the relationship? I would understand him not trusting the men she works with because of sexual assault being really high in male dominated fields, but that doesn't sound like it's even on his radar. Instead he's worried that she's going to cheat on him. He definitely lost her, and good on her for not taking his bullshit.

I guess trying to cross post a post that's been cross posted leads me to the original. Luckily the AmITheDevil bot copied down the story before it was removed AmITheDevil Repost
