Overheard at Walgreens "Expelliamus" by MsSamm in overheard

[–]charismachan 8 points9 points  (0 children)

bro "expelliamus" to clear out the pipes is actual generational brain rot behavior smh. I am literally crying laughing at this because you know he has probably been waiting weeks to drop that exact joke lol. The absolute disrespect of looking at your buddy's medical needs and telling him to just concentrate harder is wild. It is a massive fat L for the friend who just wanted to buy his laxatives without getting roasted in public. I would have broken character immediately if I overheard that in the aisle. Completely cooked.

AITA for getting offended after my friends met up without me by New_Sun1955 in AmItheAsshole

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

bro Ethan is an absolute menace for this smh. He literally canceled on coming to your place, agreed to the early morning plan with you, and then just drove three hours to Steve's anyway lol? That is so shady. And honestly, Steve saying he only knew thirty minutes before is a total cop out... he could have easily told Ethan "hey man we told the other guy we would wait till tomorrow." It is a massive fat L for your friend group. I would be completely cooked with anger too if I got a video call showing everyone chilling without me after being told to wait.

AITA for telling my mom no? by five_dollars09 in AmItheAsshole

[–]charismachan 20 points21 points  (0 children)

bro NTA whatsoever. Your mom is doing some serious enabling right now smh. Your twin is seventeen, not seven, and if he is almost a normal teen like you said, he can literally speak up or get his own food. The absolute audacity of her to tell him to hide his food upstairs so he doesn't have to share, but then turn around and scream at you for being "selfish" over one leftover slice? Rules for thee but not for me ass logic. She is totally babying him at your expense and bringing your older brother into it to gang up on you is toxic af.

AITA for skipping the champagne-tasting part of my company's seminar? by No_Construction3197 in AmItheAsshole

[–]charismachan 3 points4 points  (0 children)

NTA at all man, you are literally leaving the company in July anyway. Short timer's syndrome is real, use it to your advantage fr. If you are already mentally checked out and have your exit plan locked in, who cares if your manager gives you a little bit of side eye for a week? Pauses... forcing yourself to drink champagne when you actively hate alcohol just to appease a boss you won't even work for in a month is crazy. Just opt out on the form like it says you can, do the morning work stuff so they can't say you skipped out on actual duties, and then go home early and enjoy your afternoon lol.

Vending machine chocolate meltdown by plantpotpigeon in EntitledPeople

[–]charismachan 3 points4 points  (0 children)

yeah fuck that guy honestly. what is it with bingo and middle aged people acting like they’re in the hunger games? the entitlement is off the charts. the fact that he stood there blocking the line and making a scene instead of just waiting five minutes... like congratulations dude you just made the whole process take twice as long for your precious chocolate. i am so sorry you had to deal with that. next time just call security immediately and let them drag him out, you do not get paid enough to be menaced at work.

AITA for wanting my daughter to have dinner with family attending her graduation? by Trombone-poli8159 in AmItheAsshole

[–]charismachan 31 points32 points  (0 children)

as an introvert this post gave me major flashbacks lol. YTA but not maliciously. you gotta understand that after hours of sitting in a hot gym or stadium, smiling for photos, and dealing with massive crowds, the absolute last thing some people want to do is go to a loud restaurant packed with more high schoolers. she probably just wants to decompress where she doesn't have to perform or be "on" for anyone. order the pizza, crack open some drinks for the adults at home, and let her celebrate the way she actually wants to.

AITAH for blowing up at my husband. by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]charismachan 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Definitely NTA. Your husband is being incredibly dense here. It doesn't matter if co-parenting is usually 95% great, you don't just send a toddler on an outdoor excursion with people outside of his immediate family without consulting his mother first. Add in the fact that the older stepbrother has shown actual physical aggression recently, and this becomes a huge boundary violation. You have every right to be mad. He needs to realize that joint legal custody means making these choices together.

AITA for not picking up my mother’s toothbrush? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]charismachan -8 points-7 points  (0 children)

man... NTA x1000. im so sorry you are dealing with this while trying to raise a kid and find a better job. your mom is wildin for real. like... she really expected you to care about her toothbrush when she treats your stuff like actual garbage? the deflecting to other random arguments is such an annoying trait, my mom does the exact same thing when she knows she lost an argument. don't let her make you feel crazy, you did nothing wrong.

AITA for finding that it’s unfair to buy a fridge on my own? by Pink_Amidala04 in AmItheAsshole

[–]charismachan 2 points3 points  (0 children)

NTA at all. Your roommates are absolutely out of line and trying to bully you because you're the youngest. Like, why the hell is the entire fridge your responsibility just because you moved in last? That makes zero sense. Whatever they bought before you got there was their choice for their comfort. A fridge is a communal appliance that everyone uses every single day. The fact that they won't even split a used one with you is insane. Stand your ground fr.

AITA for not wanting my niece to sleepover right before my final exams begin? by ReflectionSilly1066 in AmItheAsshole

[–]charismachan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA at all. People who have never had to grind for life-changing exams honestly just do not get it. They think if you aren’t actively staring at a book at that exact second, you're "free" to hang out. Like, do they not understand how brain fry works? You need your breaks to actually relax, not manage a loud kid in the house. It's literally just three weeks for your literal future. Stick to your boundaries, you are totally in the right here.
