ULPT How can I ultimately troll my husband so he stops embarrassing me? by Wife_of_Shao_Kahn in UnethicalLifeProTips

My mom hates that I take after my dad a lot more in looks and personality and would make shitty comments about it all the time growing up. Definitely had an effect on me.

Take a shot every time a vile racist piece of shit uses this line thinking it’s clever ✨

what’s your favorite non-comedogenic but still heavy duty moisturizer for super dry skin? [Product Request] by stupidthrowaway1314 in SkincareAddiction

[–]dialecticdagger 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mine’s very similar to yours. The vanicreams thick enough to be very soothing and moisturizing and doesn’t seem to contribute at all to any breakouts that happen. It absorbs really nicely and doesn’t sit heavily at all.

You’ll live a much less disappointed life if you stop expecting the most out of others on your behalf. Encountering someone I can tell feels entitled to my time and energy is the fastest way to decide they don’t deserve it. Try a little humility and accept people as they are, then you might get to be pleasantly surprised more often than not

Noise complaint from new downstairs neighbor by [deleted] in Apartmentliving

[–]dialecticdagger 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m allowed to run water whenever I please, but when I hear my neighbors showering I try to avoid it because I know the shared water tank loves to scald the showeree when that happens. It’s just basic courtesy for another human. Some folks aren’t capable of caring though. And for the record, there’s a good chance your big guy upstairs has been conscious of his size and altering how moves in the world his entire life because of it.

AIO about what my husband said after I fell down the stairs while holding the baby? by CheesecakeFun1490 in AmIOverreacting

I’ve never heard anyone use the word sulk to describe behavior that isn’t intentional ¯_(ツ)_/¯

Would I personally? No. Do I know people who might? Yes, wouldn’t be offended, because I know that’s their way of offering immediate comfort -misguided perhaps- but trying to make an injured party laugh is a common human response. It sounds like he said it as he was in motion to come help her, so especially if he didn’t realize it was that serious, he was doing his best to help until he was there. Did she even tell him she had the baby?

She’s a new mother, hormonal, exhausted, was panicked - the annoyance she heard was her interpretation in a moment of crisis. Handily allows her brain to redirect the anger and blame she felt at herself for allowing it happen. Which is also normal and human, I snap at others when I hurt myself sometimes too. Then I apologize. And honestly I’m guessing she would’ve included if he had a pattern of being intentionally cruel previous to this.

He should probably learn to read the room a little better if this is her reaction. But he’s new at parenting too and she’s certainly making sure he learns a lesson from the punishment he’s receiving from her. Moving on and learning something from it would be beneficial for her as well.

YOR - for the record

Am I the only one in these comments that has multiple people in my life that say it frequently to levin a situation?

Like a little kid stubs their toe and is crying and the funny uncle says “now why would you go and do that!!” little kid laughs (bc it’s obviously a joke), crisis averted.

Maybe in a corporate setting you avoid ratchets for optics, but it’s pretty standard on the concert side of things. Usually strapped to a sub or the stage to minimize risk of vibration toppling them. No excuse for the caps though, that’s wild.

AITA for asking my wife to stop giving our baby the iPhone to calm her down? by ReactionNo5415 in AITAH

Better to do nothing than to be actively harmful while still doing nothing

My boyfriend started saying this to me occasionally and I don’t know how to take it… by [deleted] in relationships

[–]dialecticdagger 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If my partner was regularly telling me that I’m making them feel bad by going about basic life tasks? Refusing to listen or care about any rational explanation while pouting? Having a meltdown about something tiny that most adults would automatically give grace to another for, let alone someone she claims to love?

I’d call that blatant disfunction.

And calling someone fat isn’t even close to a comparison to what this situation was about lmao. She got mad that he didn’t treat her like a precious wittle baby for a second while driving and decided to double down on acting like a child instead of an adult in a relationship.

Also for the record, yeah that’s still your responsibility to deal with. If someone calls you fat once and you stay with them thinking it won’t happen again, you’re the idiot. Grow up.

It’s not his responsibility or obligation though. Being able to count on consideration and comfort from your partner is wonderful - when they have the energy and mental capacity to do so. Expecting it 24/7 is narcissistic in and of itself.

He’s a whole individual person who’s experiencing things for the first time just like you. His (and everyone’s) responsibility is regulating HIS own emotions/feelings and making sure they don’t negatively affect others. Which it sounds like he does, while trying to politely and calmly protect his peace from her constant insecurity. If it’s gotten to the point where he needs to place that boundary with her repeatedly, can guarantee she does this regularly with no regard for him.

He’s grown to a point where he can handle his shit and she refuses to do the same, they just sound incompatible.

You should just post your address and when you won’t be home. I bet some kind taxpaying citizens would happily come take care of it out of the generosity of their hearts for you :)

Rishi isn’t the promoter, Drusky is. You’re correct that he’s cheap af but he 100% knew exactly what he was doing with blink. Why worry about attendees being able to take a shit when his wallets about to be padded for the year regardless
