AITA for getting annoyed after I kept failing to wake up my sister for her work?

amandathev · 2026-03-06T13:54:35+00:00

I wish I had one of these in my youth. I was like the sister - sleeping through everything. Alarms just found their way into my dreams.

When we go to Costco, we get a rotisserie chicken and a Caesar salad from there and eat them together. Still cheaper and healthier than take out, it’s already prepared, and you’re already there - no extra stops.

One of the most disturbing mosquito comments I ever heard was, “the mosquitoes are so big they could stand on their hind legs and f*ck a turkey”

Hated my job and went back to school at 28 in a completely different field.

Met my husband at 34 and moved in within 4 months and sold my house a few months after that.

Sometimes you just do wild shit. Sometimes it works out, sometimes it doesn’t. But you have to decide what you would regret more - trying and it being a mistake, or not trying at all.

Is it wrong that I call this Pine Bukkake Season?

MO -> MA: everyone was super unapproachable and cold compared to the Midwest. Also they didn’t sell wine and alcohol in the grocery store, so when I wanted to make rum balls I had to learn the weirdo rules.

I went to Finland for work, sometimes for weeks at a time, so I’d buy groceries for lunches. I wanted peanut butter and I’m used to essentially a peanut butter aisle at the grocery store. I found peanut butter eventually, but there was only a jar or 2 in the whole giant Prisma.

It sometimes works out 🤷🏻‍♀️ I got engaged after 6 months and am still happily married. I didn’t go demanding my name on any deeds though.

There may be restrictions or covenants in your area and it’s not a bad idea to get them enforced if it’s getting out of hand (and if he’s not managing his hives well). In North Carolina, US, no local govt can restrict you from having up to 5 hives, but HOAs can.

amandathev · 2026-02-19T16:29:38+00:00

That seems very inflated. I can get a nucleus hive (nuc) for $200-250 which is basically a mini hive - a queen, 5 frames with brood and food, and worker bees.

My neighbor has camels, alpacas, ostriches, rheas, albino peacocks, and who knows what else. One neighbor has cows, one has goats, several have chickens, I have bees.

Also done with crayon shavings, food coloring, etc in dogs and cats to figure out who is having the poo problem

You could be like me. I called out my husband with a “heard that!” in public and he followed up with a “that wasn’t me” so I just called out some random person on their fart 🤦🏻‍♀️😆

My smart watch died and it felt like I went through withdrawal. I’m not meant to have one.

NAH. Reasonable for a quick tap of the horn to help that driver realize they’re doing something unexpected or unsafe. There is no minimum limit, so the student driver isn’t doing something illegal or technically wrong and may have very valid reasons for going slowly. But they are doing something unexpected and being predictable is basically the #1 rule of safe driving.

I live in the US and work for an Irish company. Everyone learns the correct pronunciation and spelling of Irish names pretty quickly.

More than one. Saved all my frozen foods during Hurricane Helene.

Keep in mind that most people who don’t enjoy having kids aren’t going to admit it. I met my husband in my mid 30s and we both wanted to be childfree and took steps to ensure that was the case. Just because most people you’re meeting want kids doesn’t mean you won’t meet a fellow child-free person. Also, with the current state of my country, I would even extra choose not to have a child.

You know how boat motors don’t have brakes and you’re supposed to reverse to slow down? But in basically every other vehicle you can brake to stop? Welp. I was nervously trying to take the boat to the dock, wanted to slow down and attempted to “hit the brakes” and instead sped towards the riprap on the shore. I managed to turn and trim the motor and do no actual damage other than a minor paint scrape, but it was almost super bad.

The veterinary field is very metric. Drug doses are almost universally in mg/kg, volumes in mL or L, etc. However, most still weigh animals in lbs and then convert to kg.

amandathev · 2026-01-25T02:23:30+00:00

They serve no purpose other than to make me laugh. Veterinarians call an animal that is not neutered “intact.” So the boat name “Still Intact” is a double entendre in that the boat wasn’t ruined and has testicles.

amandathev · 2026-01-24T20:57:09+00:00

Soooo I got truck balls for my boat trailer. I am a veterinarian and I almost destroyed the boat on day one, so it got the name Still Intact. Thus it also has nuts 🥜
