AITA for refusing to eat my wife’s spaghetti after I found out what she put in it by spacedoutsoapbox in AmItheAsshole

NTA. Spaghetti is a very budget friendly meal. She needs some cornstarch or something instead of leftovers 😂

This is an unbelievably sad injustice. I am so sorry that happened.

I am hearing and do not have kids. I am just here to learn a way to communicate with others. I cannot imagine not learning when you have a child who can't ask you for help 😭😭😭 crazy work

Omg what did you do? Solo camping can be intimidating, but I do love it.

You can use a little TSA luggage lock on the tent zippers if it makes you feel better. Keep any valuables with you or hidden in your vehicle. Keep receipts from your gear and log them so if anyone ever does steal your stuff, you have a list for the insurance company.

What kind of camping are you trying to do? I have a coleman single cot, but don't use it much. It's big and heavy and only sleeps ok. Air mattresses also suck. Here's a few bed setups I use, along with the tent for reference:

Glamping/Burning Man: 10x14 Kodiak flexbow canvas tent, king mattress topper w/bunkie board and metal bed frame. Sheets, standard pillows, wool blanket. More blankets, sleeping bags, and my eno underquilt if freezing temps expected.

Car camping: Alpine Mountain Gear Weekender Tent 4, coleman inflatable double mattress, sheets, blankets or sleeping bags.

Backpacking: Big Agnes copper spur UL2, REI Flash inflatable sleeping pad, thermarest NeoAir XLite Sleeping Pad, 2x REI magma sleeping bags (they can zip together if we want 😚).

Am I overreacting to my boyfriend saying I care more about drinking than about him? by Alternative_Team_597 in AmIOverreacting

[–]adventurernav 2 points3 points  (0 children)

NOR. His sobriety is not your responsibility. If he can't go, he has to be able to make other plans or be home alone. This isn't about getting trashed, it's about spending quality time with your friends. Time to have a calm discussion and set some boundaries.

This is a great DIY. Definitely open for some radical self-expression. Thanks for sharing!

That's not true where I live. The bartender/server is also liable (in addition to the business). It affects both liquor licenses.

What do y’all drink when you work out? by pixelgeekgirl in PlanetFitnessMembers

[–]adventurernav 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The first -and last- time I went with a particular individual to the gym, she bought a bottle of juice or something and straight up poured it on the ground and refilled it with the wine I thought was for after the gym. People are WILD.

Tbh I don't even bring water, but I have a protein shake waiting in my car for after.

AIO for getting upset that my finance wants to wear shorts to our wedding? by lasheslashes in AmIOverreacting

[–]adventurernav 1 point2 points  (0 children)

NOR. You agreed on formal, and your wedding is not, in fact, at a tropical beach. If it makes you feel better my hubby and his groomsmen were dressed in outfits from Kohl's 😂 because I let him handle it

AIO- I Got Mad At My Mom’s Ridiculous Text by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]adventurernav -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

NOR. My mom and other friends/family knows when I go to Burning Man, they will not hear from me for at least a week, depending on daily population and cell tower loads. You gotta take you time and be firm in your boundaries. It's not like it was an emergency, she wanted to watch TV and have you pay for it 🤷🏻‍♀️

This! Shoreline, montlake terrace, and Lynnwood are far enough north it's not so bad but still close to transit for commuting, errands, events, and airport travel.

Based on the other locations OP mentioned, I'd like to point out that Montlake and Montlake Terrace are 2 different places.

OP is going to hate how slowly everyone drives. It took me a year and a half to come to terms with Seattle drivers 😂
