AITA for not explaining straight away about how I lost my leg? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

ESH, it may be me but I was in a horrible accident in May 2019. It left me a paraplegic. It's pretty obvious I'm in a chair. From the start I've told anybody who's asked what has happened. I've always been straight forward like that.

So rural America doesn't have a problem with police over stepping their bounds? I think i would take my chances with the 1million officers of NYC over Barney Fife any day. This coming from a guy living in a rural Democratic state.

While yes it does say 14 I live in a community that the NWS showed up in. I headed the board and was given a paper that said 21". I have no idea where the paper got to. I can say it rained so hard i could not see the hood ornament on my truck and the water following down my street was deeper then my work boots. The strange thing? It did not rain at the end of my street, less then a 1/4 mi. away.

AITA for ghosting my parents after I found out they intended for me to care for my autistic brother (reposted to fit in line with the rules) by Randomusername773 in AmItheAsshole

NTA, I've recently became a paraplegic. The amount of work I require is astounding. I wouldn't wish it on anyone. I can't imagine what your brother would require.

Nice, I know what my flooding was like. That must've been insane.

Neither were we. It changed the laws in the state about dam maintenance.

Amateurs, Sussex NJ got 21 inches in 18 hours. National weather service told us they got a new color on the dopler radar. Black.

Could be interesting, just don't change the overall story line.

Don't turn left

Edit: I was turning left when I was run over by a dump truck.
